A single dancing figure can be quite gorgeous and pleasing to the eye, but dozens of dancing figures moving simultaneously can be terrifying and make one’s heart race, causing a tingling sensation at the scalp.
"Illusion? Impossible!" Wang Shihai’s face changed as he realized he had run into trouble. He quickly prepared to retreat hastily.
"Thinking of escape now? I’m afraid it’s too late." A frigid female voice echoed gently behind him. An unnoticeable small butterfly had sohow managed to find its way behind Wang Shihai. The butterfly twisted and transford into a woman wearing a weft yarn Douli.
A jade flute was already resting on the back of Wang Shihai’s head, ready to explode with a sudden release of her mysterious energy. It would ensure that Wang Shihai’s head would burst open like a large waterlon.
This was one of the Illusion Techniques in the lineage of the Valley of Ten Thousand Butterflies at Longzuo’s Purple Abode Academic Palace, the "Phantom Butterfly Divine Skill." The skill had been the trademark technique of Lady Huandie, a master at the Academic Palace. Once activated, butterflies would fill the sky, and as long as one butterfly lived, Lady Huandie could stay alive.
By the ti her true body appeared, the outco of the battle was essentially decided.
As a favored disciple of Lady Huandie, how could she not deeply study this divine skill?
However, she had only mastered the surface-level techniques of the "Phantom Butterfly Divine Skill." At Lady Huandie’s level, displaying the skill would be similar to using a small divine power.
"Please... please show rcy, miss," Wang Shihai pleaded, as he was gripped by icy terror when his life was threatened, "We don’t bear any grudges, please don’t..."
"Hmph!"
She let out a cold huff, "Had you not shown no intent to kill, would you be deserving of life? Your major cri can be excused, but not your minor one."
As her final word "escaped" ca out.
A few ants, the size of a pinky finger, had already crawled onto Wang Shihai’s body. Their sharp jaws easily tore through his clothes and fiercely bit down on his shoulder blade, injecting poison into his body.
"Aaah!"
Wang Shihai roared in extre pain, falling to the ground, crying out in constant agony, "It hurts! It’s killing ! Kill , miss."
He had never experienced such pain in his life.
The clan soldiers and household heads changed their expressions drastically. Just as they were about to rush forward to save him, they were deterred by the woman’s glance. It was as if they had encountered a world-class, fierce beast. Their legs shook in fear, not daring to make a single move.
"You can rest assured; he won’t die," the woman reassured, retracting the black ants with a casual wave of her hand. "These are sawtooth poisonous ants from the Savage Frontier Marsh. Although they can’t kill a Spirit Platform Realm cultivator, they can cause twelve hours of pain. Moreover, as ti passes, the pain will intensify."
Wang Shihai nearly fainted from the pain upon hearing her words.
The pain he was experiencing at that mont was already unbearable. If it was going to get even worse, wouldn’t he feel as if he had been thrown into the eighteenth level of hell? This woman was truly ruthless, definitely terrifying. He wanted to go ho, and cried out for his great-grandfather to save him.
"Miss, I was wrong." Wang Shihai wept miserably, "Please, spare out of your kindness. If anything happens to , my great-grandfather won’t let you off the hook. Let’s take a step back each, and consider it as if nothing happened."
"Your great-grandfather?" She raised an eyebrow, scoffing, "Your great-grandfather? Do tell, let’s see if he could scare ."
"My great-grandfather is the Clan Leader of Changning Wang Clan - Wang Shouzhe." Wang Shihai gasped out amidst the pain and his groaning. "This cent road beneath your feet was built by my great-grandfather, miss. I advise you..."
"You impudent-"
Stay tuned for updates on .Côm
The woman was beside herself with rage. With a swipe of her hand, a few fist-sized, terrifying spiders appeared out of nowhere and crawled onto Wang Shihai’s face. She scolded angrily, "How dare you impersonate the grandson of my fourth brother! Tell who you really are, or don’t bla for being ruthless."
"What? Fourth brother? Oh, no, miss, please remove the spiders, please." Wang Shihai scread in extre pain and terror, "We are family, we’re family. I really am Wang Shihai, and Wang Shouzhe really is my great-grandfather~"
"Nonsense, if you’re my fourth brother’s grandson, then I’m your grand aunt..."
"Right, right. You should be my grand aunt, grand aunt... Please get the spider away before talking. It’s too terrifying, whine, I want to go ho~~" Wang Shihai felt sowhat distressed. In their Southern Desert County, fights were common but no one ever used spiders and ants.
He had heard of Insect Masters, but the Southern Desert was not a conducive environnt for Insect Masters to mature and develop.
"?" The woman appeared doubtful as she looked at the family soldiers, "Are you really the patrol team of the Wang Clan? Do you have an Identity Token?"
"Yes, yes." A soldier hurriedly produced his identity token, respectfully handed it forward, and mumbled, "Grand aunt, you’re skilled in controlling spiritual insects, could it be that you’re our Wang family’s Sky Pride from the Academic Palace— Grand Aunt Wang Luo Jing?"
This soldier was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old and seed to be in the sixth level of the Qi Refinent Realm. Wang Luo Jing had been in the Academic Palace for sixteen or seventeen years. The journey was long, and she rarely returned ho. On those rare returns, she would usually reunite with relatives more than making public appearances.
Therefore, it was normal for so young soldiers and clansn not to recognize her. However, Wang Luo Jing was still one of the legendary won in the Wang Clan and the pride of their people.
Although she rarely returned, her fa within the clan was great.
Wang Shihai, who had only been residing with the Changning Wang clan for several months, was even familiar with the renowned Wang Luo Jing from the Academic Palace. As soon as he heard this, Wang Shihai who had a spider on his face hastened to exclaim, "So you’re Wang Luo Jing. It’s indeed a case of misguidance, family mbers don’t recognize each other anymore."
After glancing at Wang Shihai, Wang Luo Jing inspected the soldier’s identity token.
It was a thin purple card, both soft and flexible, indicating the soldier’s identity, origin, and rank.
She confird his identity imdiately.
Because one of the main materials used to make this identity token was the insect glue extracted from the rubber tree by the insects she personally tad. After a series of manufacturing processes, it is extrely difficult for others to imitate.
After confirming the soldier’s identity, Wang Luo Jing casually recalled the spider and threw out several silver needles to help Wang Shihai detox.
Wang Shihai humd and slowly got up from the ground. With residual fear towards, Wang Luo Jing, he hid and complained, "Wang Luo Jing, you’re too brutal, I..."
"You should call Fifth Grand Aunt." Wang Luo Jing said in a cold voice.
"Alright, Fifth Grand Aunt!" Wang Shihai hurriedly called out with a sweet tone as a chill ran down his spine. At this point, he could not harbor the slightest whimsical notion towards her, and his heart was filled with fear.
Wang Luo Jing looked him up and down with a skeptical gaze, "How old are you this year?"
"I’m twenty-three this year..." Wang Shihai answered honestly.
"You’re quite a young talent, but your age..." Wang Luo Jing frowned, wondering if her eldest brother Wang Shouxin had behaved irresponsibly when he was young, producing a child out of wedlock, leaving behind a grandchild? Was he trying to recognize his ancestors and return to his clan now?
After thoughtful consideration, the only person who could fit the bill was her sixty or seventy sothing older brother Wang Shouxin. Yet, their eldest sister-in-law from the Xu family had a tough temper... Alas, this child, afraid he would suffer upon returning to the family.
"Whatever, I was impulsive earlier." Wang Luo Jing’s tone softened, "In the future, if you face any grievances, you can tell , and I will back you up."
Grievances?
Wang Shihai widened his eyes, "What grievances do I have? My biggest grievance cos from you, fifth grand aunt. You reward by siccing ants to bite and scare with spiders..."
Dad, Changning Guard is very dangerous, I really want to go ho.
