Lonemoon’s face fell at once, even Yi Qing’s followed, a smile appeared on his lips as he said, word by word, “This teacher means to say that you’re intending on going back on your word at the last minute?”

Damn it! I busied myself for a good half of the day and you actually dared to swap out my prize at the end! F*ck the damn competition, he ought to have struck right at the start! In that moment, he released all the Sword Qi in his body at once, a boundless suppression was about to sweep across the entire area.

The teacher who was still angry that he was unappreciative earlier paled instantly, his legs trembled as he was about to drop to his knees. At the side, Yan Luo felt his heart sank before he hurriedly rushed over.

“Fellow Daoist, fellow daoist don’t be rash! Let’s talk things out amicably.” Yan Luo quickly pulled the prize presenter behind him. Judging by this person’s reaction, he suddenly understood that his motive in participating in the competition these past few days was probably to get that egg. But he wasn’t very clear about why the prize was suddenly changed. Hence he hastily turned around and questioned, “Junior Brother, where’s the rainbow colored egg? Why was the prize suddenly changed?”

“Senior Brother Yan...” That person fell into a momentary daze, recalling the massive aura from earlier he trembled involuntarily before he replied, still in shock, “That egg is... with the insect race. Yesterday they sent us a message asking for that rainbow colored egg. Their queen has always like such eggs and whatnots... so we just...”

They had thought that the egg just had a slightly more concentrated Spirit Qi, nothing rare about it. That’s why the changed the prize to immortal stones, as compensation, they’d even doubled the amount. Regardless of any cultivator, whoever meets such a situation will not have any objections, yet who would’ve known that the one that came totally didn’t have a lack of immortal stones.

“Insect race?” Lonemoon frowned and turned his head to look towards a certain insect beside him.

Buggy shivered instantly, fervently shaking his head. “I... I don’t know anything!” He hurriedly pointed to the butterfly knot on top of his head. “All of you know it, Great Immortal had already tied up my feelers the previous time, till now I still have no way of contacting the bugs of my race!”

Lonemoon and Yi Qing exchanged a look, their expressions becoming even graver.

Instead, it was Shen Ying who suddenly spoke up, “Where is the nest of your race?”

“At... at Buggy Hill in the wilderness of the north.” Buggy replied honestly.

Their faces fell, without any delay, they picked up Buggy and flew into the air on the swords. “Show the way!” Once the words fell, three humans and a bug vanished.

The Sword Qi then dissipated.

The few teachers fell their legs turn to jelly and sat onto the ground.

“Teacher Yan, who... who exactly were those few people?”

“Don’t ask me!” Yan Luo looked miserable. “I don’t know either.” Anyhow they’re just not to be trifled with.

—————

The few of them flew very quickly, in a short while, they’d arrived above a land of wilderness. From far, they saw tall, black mountains appear before them. The one right in the middle had its peak in the clouds, the mountains seemed to be a special type of rock,its surfaces were empty, without any kind of vegetation, making it look like several tall and black towers.

And the surfaces of the towers were covered with all sorts of insects, some kept their human form while others appeared as beetles. What was more unique was there were various species on their mountain, they looked similar to those in the mystic realm, these were... monsters?

When did the insect race cohabit with demons and monsters and most of them were the feather tribes.

“All of us bugs are birthed by the queen, but ever since we came to this furthest end of the void, her delivery speed dropped steeply, so the queen is often idle, recently she has a new special hobby...” Buggy pointed to all the demons and monsters below and explained, “Not only does she like laying eggs, she even prefers... nesting eggs!” And it’s the kind where she doesn’t restrict the types of eggs.

Yi Qing: “...”

Lonemon: “...”

Shen Ying: “...”

Was this why she suddenly asked for the colored egg? Because she laid less so she wanted to hatch others’ for fun?

The trio was speechless. Buggy could not help but begged weakly, “Great Immortal, our queen is actually a very wonderful insect, she definitely did not ask for the egg because she knew it belonged to you. How about... can you give Buggy a chance to go explain the situation to her, can we... not fight?”

The few of them exchanged looks before nodding. Alright, on the account that you’ve been rather diligent in your work these few days.

Buggy then heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly led the three of them into the main nest, showing them all the way in.

Inside the nests, there were no longer any demon monsters to be seen, it was densely filled with all sorts of insects, most stayed in their original form, looking extremely scary. Perhaps because there was Buggy leading the way, they did not attack the three.

Buggy brought them around and around and finally arrived in the innermost area of the nest, stopping in a circular passageway. A huge space could vaguely bee seen at the end of it and there were even several tall and big insects standing guard along the two sides of the passageway. Buggy went forward and touched feelers with the one right in front, no one knew what was communicated but Buggy turned back after a moment and said, “Please wait here for a moment Great Immortals, the queen will summon me immediately.”

With that said, he respectfully knelt down inside the passageway, seeming to be waiting for something, and the insect that had communicated with him was already crawling into the room in front to inform of his coming.

The few of them waited for about 15 minutes before that insect came back out and nodded towards Buggy. Instantly, the tall and big insects in the passageway stepped to the sides and showed a route.

“Great Immortal, the queen wants to see me and you.” Buggy turned towards Lonemoon and explained.

“Sure.” Lonemoon nodded, then turned back towards Shen Ying and Chef, saying, “Wait here for a moment.”

With that said, he followed behind Buggy, a few steps out, a screen appeared before them, they walked right through and the scenery before their eyes changed at once, they arrived in a huge circular cave. It was different from what was imagined, flowers covered the entire floor of the cave, looking like a sea of flowers. And in the middle of that, a large, moth-like insect settled.

Its body was extremely massive, almost occupying half of the space in the cave. A pair of compound eyes was staring at the two people who walked in, eight steel like legs curled under it’s body while a huge abdomen laid flat on the ground. Occasionally flashes of light flew across its belly and a white egg would bounce out.

Some insects half the height of average humans also surrounded it, it seems like they were insects specializing in transporting the queen’s eggs, they were lined up and fetching the eggs laid one by one before carrying them out.

Underneath the queen’s belly, there was a circle of different species of eggs with various auras, they looked to be the demon and monsters’. Buggy was right, this queen indeed liked to nest eggs.

“You’re the human who won that rainbow colored egg?” The queen suddenly spoke. Her mouth did not move but a sharp female voice sounded in the entire room.
