Chapter 265: These Are Insects
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
There was a significant drawback to cultivating in the Void Realm.
When in seclusion, one’s perception of the outside world is not clear.
Tonight, during the massacre incident, Lu Ming was in seclusion and did not immediately realize what was happening.
As for Quan Chao, Roda, and the others, being Spirit Realm experts, their perception had flaws, and since Lu Ming explicitly instructed them to remain still and await developments, they did not go out to investigate.
In short, they were almost unaware of everything happening outside.
At this moment, Roda and the others were in the main hall, listening to the shouts of battle outside, and their faces turned pale.
Roxin spoke, “Listen, it doesn’t sound like a zombie beast attacking the city…”
The other three remained silent.
Unlike Roxin, Roda, Quan Chao, and Uncle Lu were all seasoned individuals and had vaguely guessed the situation outside.
“Should we wake Mr. Lu up?”
Uncle Lu raised this question, causing the others to exchange glances.
They did not know the current situation and whether they should interrupt Lu Ming’s seclusion.
Little did they know that, during their discussion, four figures had boldly walked in through the main gate.
It was the Queen Blade and the three dung beetle generals.
The servants around them completely ignored the four of them, and even Roda, Quan Chao, and the others in the room could not sense their presence – the gap between Source Realm and Spirit Realm was that vast.
From a distance, the Queen Blade heard Roda and the others’ conversation.
She stopped in her tracks, seeming to have thought of something, and a teasing expression appeared on her face.
“In that case, that stoic face in seclusion is indeed the strongest among you.”
“Then I’ll deal with him first. After I turn him into a dung beetle general, how will you little guys react?”
In the eyes of the Queen Blade, this was undoubtedly something to look forward to.
It could bring some relief and fun to a tense life.
With a flash, the Queen Blade had already brought the dung beetle general to Lu Ming’s seclusion room.
Her gentle movements did not arouse Lu Ming’s reaction.
Looking at Lu Ming, who was sitting on the futon in front of her, the Queen Blade’s mouth curled into a cruel smile.
She took out a dung beetle egg, gave it a toss, and the egg appeared by Lu Ming’s lips.
The golden egg seemed to have sensed something and immediately twisted and contorted, taking on a noodle-like shape as it attempted to enter Lu Ming’s body through his lips.
The Queen Blade was getting more and more excited.
She could already imagine what would happen next.
[The dung beetle eggs completely disregard the Body Protective techniques. They will push open this person’s lips, shatter his teeth, flow down the throat like jelly, enter the stomach, and then proceed to the excruciating hatching phase!]
Despite its unassuming appearance, the hardness of a dung beetle egg far exceeded that of steel.
Once the dung beetle made contact with the person’s lips, everything that followed was inevitable, with no other options.
A crisp thud interrupted the Queen Blade’s thoughts.
She looked at Lu Ming and was suddenly stunned.
She saw that the dung beetle egg on Lu Ming’s lips suddenly let out a weak but sharp scream. Its entire body twitched violently, and detached from Lu Ming’s lips. It fell to the ground and rolled and twisted for a while before becoming completely still.
It could be clearly seen that the tip of the dung beetle egg had shattered.
It had collided with Lu Ming’s steel-like teeth like an egg hitting a rock.
This thing was the core of the dung beetle egg, and once it shattered, the entire dung beetle egg became useless.
The Queen Blade frowned fiercely.
“Your teeth are surprisingly tough!”
A hint of anger surfaced on her face as she looked at Lu Ming and said so.
Lu Ming had been awakened by this point and was staring at the Queen Blade with a bewildered expression.
Exiting the Void Space required a short time to adapt to the changes in the flow of time.
This time was very brief, lasting less than a second.
During this period of time, Lu Ming’s consciousness was a little unclear.
Having just ended his seclusion, he was still somewhat dazed.
However, when he saw the enraged Queen Blade and the dead insect egg in front of him, Lu Ming quickly understood the current situation.
He opened his mouth in a daze, his lips trembling slightly. He slowly reached out and picked up the dead insect egg in front of him.
“This is…”
Looking at the dead insect egg in his hand, Lu Ming’s voice trembled.
No, his entire body was trembling!
“Your big teeth are really hard! Then I’ll shatter all your big teeth!”
The Queen Blade ignored what Lu Ming had said. She smiled cruelly and was about to shatter Lu Ming’s steel teeth when she suddenly sensed a dangerous aura spreading from Lu Ming’s body.
She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Lu Ming. She saw that Lu Ming’s body was already trembling uncontrollably.
His entire body trembled crazily like he was having an epilepsy. His face alternated between green and white, and his pupils were also trembling, as if he had fallen into a huge shock.
“What… is this?!”
Lu Ming asked in a daze as he turned his trembling head to look at the Queen Blade.
The Queen Blade pursed her lips and vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
“This is… an insect, right?”
Lu Ming slowly stood up from the ground and brought the dead egg in front of him.
“These are insects…”
He turned his head numbly and looked at the Queen Blade.
“Did you just… feed me insects?”
“Kill him!” Lu Ming’s expression and tone made Queen Blade’s heart tremble and she vaguely felt a chill.
She decisively gave the order and the three dung beetle generals charged at Lu Ming from three angles!
Six short but sharp limbs instantly slashed at the three vital points on Lu Ming’s body like knives. However, with a clang, the protective aura on Lu Ming’s body flashed, and the limbs of the three dung beetle generals exploded on the spot!
They were instantly blasted out of the room due to the tremendous recoil.
Lu Ming, on the other hand, didn’t even flinch.
At that moment, only Lu Ming and the Queen Blade remained in the room.
Lu Ming’s expression gradually became ferocious and terrifying!
He trembled as he crushed the dead insect egg in his hand.
As he looked at the sticky, slippery, and smelly pale yellow liquid slowly flowing down his fingertip, Lu Ming became overwhelmingly stiff!
His facial muscles twitched.
“You, how dare you feed me such a thing…”
“You actually dare to feed me such a thing…”
“You actually dare to feed me such a thing!”
His deafening roar reverberated throughout the city in an instant!
The Queen Blade, who was so close, felt a massive shockwave penetrating her ears. Her ears buzzed, and blood trickled from her ear canals.
She had been deafened.
The overwhelming killing intent left the Queen Blade’s body stiffened and paralyzed.
Her vision blurred and instantly, she saw Lu Ming standing before her.
A large hand mercilessly grabbed the back of the Queen Blade’s head, and with unparalleled strength, Lu Ming pulled the Queen Blade’s head in front of him.
Then, the Queen Blade clearly saw the bloodshot and ferocious gaze in Lu Ming’s eyes.
He said word by word, “Didn’t your mother teach you that insects cannot be eaten!?”
