Under Ruan Xiyan's intense gaze, the bee-butterfly, which had not yet fully relaxed, froze instantly, its breath rising to its throat.
"W-what's wrong?"
Weren't we about to leave? Why did we stop?
“I suddenly remembered that you have been living in the Pill Realm all this time. Are you very familiar with all the places in the Pill Realm?”
The bee looked at Ruan Xiyan warily and replied cautiously, "Yes, is there a problem?"
“No problem, very good.” Ruan Xiyan’s eyes curved into a smile.
"You ambushed me just now, and I can let it go, but you need to come with me as compensation for the injury you just caused me."
“I refuse,” the bee-butterfly said.
It didn't want to go with this human. What if this human found a place and killed it quietly, destroying the evidence? Then its people wouldn't be able to find its body to collect.
Moreover, the wounds on this human's body had long since healed completely, leaving no trace.
If we're talking about injuries, it's clear that it and its people were more seriously injured.
Especially its people, with their damaged wings, it's unknown how long they'll need to recover before they can fly again.
"You have no right to refuse," Ruan Xiyan said domineeringly.
She reached out and grabbed the bee-butterfly in her hand, then took it away without saying a word.
"Wang! Wang! Wang—" The remaining bees and butterflies cried out anxiously as they watched the bee and butterfly that Ruan Xiyan had taken away.
Before long, Ruan Xiyan led the bee and butterfly through the flower maze.
The bee looked like it was about to cry, "What are you going to do? Where are you taking me?"
The tiny bee-butterfly was held tightly in Ruan Xiyan's hand, unable to move or break free. The bee-butterfly hung its head dejectedly.
"Do you know where the Poison Heart Silkworm in the Pill Realm is?" Ruan Xiyan asked.
Noticing that Bee Butterfly was about to say she didn't know, Ruan Xiyan spoke first, "You'd better think carefully before you answer. It's not just your life that's in my hands right now."
“I also know where your home is. I can go back anytime and destroy that flowery maze.” Ruan Xiyan made her threat openly and honestly.
The words that were about to come out of the bee's mouth were swallowed back. "I...I...I'll talk, okay?" the bee muttered softly. "So beautiful, yet so vicious."
"I know that the Poison Heart Silkworm you mentioned might appear in one place in the Pill Realm. Different races live in the Pill Realm, and the most powerful of them is the Insect Race."
"The Poison Heart Silkworm is an extremely delicious source of nourishment for the insect race, allowing them to cultivate and improve their strength."
"However, Poison Heart Silkworms are scarce. The Zerg usually raise a young Poison Heart Silkworm in the mother nest, and then eat it when the Zerg queen needs it to break through her strength."
"If you want to find the Poison Heart Silkworm, going to the Zerg is the only option. However, the Zerg are hostile to outsiders, and their population is large and they reproduce quickly."
"You could be called the overlord of the Dan realm. If you, a human, go there, you're very likely to never return and will be courting death. I advise you to give up."
Ruan Xiyan completely ignored what it said next, and simply said, "Lead the way."
"Why won't you listen to advice, human?" the bee muttered.
The Zerg are such a terrifying race that they always avoid them; no one has ever been known to deliberately provoke them.
Ruan Xiyan glanced at the bee and the butterfly indifferently.
The bee shivered and could only obediently lead the way.
Ruan Xiyan followed the bees and butterflies all the way forward, finally stopping in front of a field.
The wilderness here is gloomy. Looking into the distance, a huge spherical nest stands on the wilderness, and a large tribe is located around the spherical nest.
"That spherical nest is the residence of the Zerg Queen. The Queen is the ruler of the entire Zerg, and the tribe living in that area is inhabited by the Zerg people."
"I've brought you here. May I leave now?" the bee-butterfly said, glancing warily at the distant tribe.
The Zerg are the nemesis of the Bee-Butterfly race. Normally, they would avoid the Zerg as far as possible when they saw them. This was the first time it had come so close to a Zerg tribe, and it was terrified.
If it hadn't been forced by this female demon, it definitely wouldn't have come here. If the insectoids discovered it, it would become their food, which terrified it.
Ruan Xiyan looked at the bees and butterflies trembling like leaves and waved her hand, saying, "Let's go, let's go."
Anyway, she's already joined the Zerg and doesn't need it anymore; having it around would only be a hindrance.
The bee and butterfly, as if granted a pardon, flew away and disappeared from sight.
Ruan Xiyan looked toward the Zerg mother hive in the distance and slowly approached the Zerg tribe.
This tribe is very simple; the houses are all built with stones, except for the Zerg mother hive, which is very elaborate.
In the Zerg, the Queen is revered. Her intelligence is no less than that of humans, and she controls the entire Zerg race. The people of the Zerg are absolutely obedient to her.
Without the queen's command, the tribesmen remained quietly in their nests, and the entire tribe was eerily silent.
Ruan Xiyan carefully moved through them.
As she wondered why there wasn't a single member of the massive Zerg swarm to guard the area, her body suddenly froze.
Ruan Xiyan cautiously looked around. She felt as if a faint gaze was watching her, but upon closer inspection, she saw nothing.
The entire insectoid tribe was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Ruan Xiyan could immediately detect any movement, especially since her mental energy was constantly monitoring her surroundings.
She didn't notice anything amiss, but her intuition told her that someone was watching her.
what is going on?
Ruan Xiyan's eyes fell on the giant Zerg mother hive.
She didn't know much about the Zerg; of all the things here, the Zerg mother hive seemed the most bizarre and unfathomable.
The moment Ruan Xiyan locked eyes with the Zerg mother hive, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her spiritual sea, as if it had been struck by a force.
Ruan Xiyan used her mental power to block that force and simultaneously counterattacked it.
Her eyes narrowed; that was a mental attack!
Her mental strength was already exceptionally powerful; even against experts several levels above her, she was confident she could win in terms of mental strength.
However, the mental attack just now was able to impact her spiritual consciousness.
Although the mental attack had the advantage of being a sneak attack, even so, this was something that had never happened before. The strength of that mental attack was enough to rival hers.
