Bei Lin's words reminded Tang Rao.
Soone who cultivated two Lifebound Poisonous Insects at the sa ti might have prepared a path for themselves long ago, creating a bunch of Poisonous Insect Puppets to deal with Tang Rao all at once, leaving Tang Rao overwheld.
"I know your body is still recovering. If there's no urgent matter, it's best not to leave Zijing City."
Bei Lin wasn't aware that her sisters often went to Wen Rou Paradise to oversee business matters.
These sisters often go out, and as a new mber like Bei Lin, they would surely invite her for a tour to broaden her horizons, but now is definitely not the best ti.
This woman from the North Island, who is most skilled in Poisonous Insects, if anything were to happen to her, the fight between Tang Rao and the Second Son of Yan Family would have little chance of success.
...
When Tang Rao found Granny Hua and Hua Wuque, Granny Hua was arguing with Hua Wuque about sothing.
Because they were a bit far away and the two of them were more powerful than Tang Rao, he hadn't managed to get closer before they tacitly stopped talking.
"Master, what were you discussing with Martial Uncle?"
As the saying goes, one doesn't hit the smiling face. Since Tang Rao greeted the two elders with a smile, even if they were slightly displeased, they should still be sowhat pleasant toward him, right?
That's what he guessed, but guessing is one thing, whether they actually treat him well is another matter.
Just like now, Granny Hua and Hua Wuque hadn't even finished their argunt when they were suddenly interrupted, leaving them in no mood to be happy.
"Our argunt was about to reach a conclusion, it's all your fault!"
Granny Hua glared at Tang Rao with a particularly fierce expression.
Of all tis to appear, you had to show up now.
"How about I wait on the side until you finish arguing, and then co back?"
Tang Rao's thoughtfulness didn't earn him any goodwill from Granny Hua; instead, she felt he was deliberately mocking them.
"You stinky boy!" Granny Hua was holding onto a breath of anger that wouldn't subside, and feeling awkward about continuing to give Tang Rao trouble, she could only sigh, "Every ti you co, it's nothing good. Tell , what do you want this ti?"
Granny Hua has been very generous to Tang Rao. Whenever she and Hua Wuque find sothing good, Tang Rao is the first person they think of. Apart from that rare otherworldly fla encountered once in a millennium, they've found quite a few good things for Tang Rao, to the extent that when Tang Rao looks at Granny Hua, she worries that he has so designs on her.
"It's sothing big. Only Master can help this ti."
Tang Rao has never thought of himself as an all-powerful deity, nor does he feel it's shaful to seek help beyond his capabilities.
"I have no Purple Crystals, no valuables, just an old life. If you want this life, I'll give it to you."
Is it really that terrifying?
Tang Rao was actually disliked.
"Do you know anything in this world that can fight against Poisonous Insects?"
Tang Rao wasn't concerned about money or things; he cared about a certain answer from Granny Hua.
"Poisonous Insects? Last ti you were afflicted with them, neither your Martial Uncle nor I could do anything. How are they involved again?"
Granny Hua's eyes flickered twice.
Without needing to pinch his fingers to calculate, he could see clearly that she certainly had a lot on her mind.
"People from the East Island are arrogantly coming to the North Island. Let's not talk so high-minded; I can't control others, but those people target the Kao Shan Sect every ti, and I just can't figure out why?" Tang Rao said gloomily. "Killing one cos another, I've heard they've cultivated many Poisonous Insect Puppets. If these puppets are mass-produced, our losses won't be insignificant."
Tang Rao tried to move Granny Hua with emotion and reason, attempting to persuade her to help think of a solution.
"Poisonous Insect Puppets? They really are so ruthless?"
Granny Hua's words held a deeper aning: she clearly knew sothing but had never spoken to Tang Rao about it.
If it weren't for that statent just now, Tang Rao would never have suspected any connection between Granny Hua and those who use Poisonous Insects.
"Does that an you don't deny knowing those people?"
It's not because they didn't want to deny it; it's just that Tang Rao's group is too powerful. Even if they wanted to deny, they couldn't.
"I've never denied it, have I?"
After speaking, Granny Hua glanced at Hua Wuque.
Just a glance, but Tang Rao felt as if that look had spanned half a lifeti.
Their eye communication alone could entail countless stories.
"So, what do you know, and does it have anything to do with resisting Poisonous Insects?"
If it has nothing to do with it, then Tang Rao might as well not listen.
"Senior Brother, it seems that after hiding it for so many years, we can no longer keep it hidden."
Granny Hua sighed, looking like she was reluctant to let past mories resurface in her heart.
Hua Wuque also lost interest in arguing with Granny Hua and instead looked despondent.
"Yes, no matter how much we try to hide it, the truth inevitably cos to light one day."
"Stop, stop, stop, I can't understand what you're saying. Can you say sothing I can understand?"
Tang Rao hurriedly interrupted the sighing siblings, eager to know what had happened back then.
"When I first t you, didn't I ntion that our sect was destroyed? At that ti, only my Senior Brother and I escaped, and the one who destroyed our entire sect back then was the East Island Yan Family!"
East Island Yan Family, destroyed the sect where Granny Hua's group belonged?
Tang Rao was barely not completely stunned.
"That powerful family of yours? You an to say that powerful family was destroyed, and the culprit was the East Island Yan Family?"
Tang Rao had bragged to Bei Lin about having a way to seek revenge against the Yan Family, only to find out his enemy was even more formidable than he imagined. At this rate, acting recklessly would lead to his quick extermination, wouldn't it?
"Precisely."
This ti, answering him wasn't Granny Hua but Hua Wuque, who had remained silent since Tang Rao entered.
"How could that be? Judging from the skills of you two, your sect must have been quite powerful in the past. How could the East Island Yan Family, just a small family, have wiped out such a strong sect?"
No, no matter what they said, Tang Rao found it hard to accept that fact.
"We have no reason to deceive you. Oh, and you should know, the reason for the Yan Family's swift rise is twofold: their Poisonous Insects and their Soul Capturing Technique. The combination of an excellent insect user and an excellent Soul Capturing Master produces powers beyond what ordinary people can achieve."
"Really?"
Tang Rao had experienced both the Soul Capturing Technique and Poisonous Insects, understanding how formidable they were. He rely hadn't realized these two were from the sa family, and combining them wasn't impossible.
