Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2802: Chapter 20: Bug Saint! Wang Luo Jing Ventures into the Sacred Domain_4

Getting closer, the onlookers discovered that the woman’s black dress was quite unique, with a somewhat exotic touch. It was adorned with various patterns of butterflies and poisonous insects, and if one looked closely, one’s God Sense would become deeply entangled and difficult to extricate, causing them to quickly avert their gaze in fright.

"Child, pay respects to Old Ancestor."

Compared to the Second Prince, the Fourth Prince appeared more youthful and handsome.

He respectfully bowed to the Tianyang Saint Emperor and introduced, "This is the Insect Master Wang Luo Jing, known as the ’Illusion Gu Immortal,’ whom I invited."

"Greetings to His Majesty Tianyang Saint Emperor." Wang Luo Jing calmly saluted, neither humble nor arrogant.

Although the Tianyang Saint Emperor was polite, his expression was amiable, and his tone was cheerful: "Thank you, Illusion Gu Immortal, for coming to support my Tianyang Theocracy."

However, the words had barely fallen.

The Second Prince couldn’t help but show a mocking expression and scrutinized Wang Luo Jing, saying, "Old Fourth, it’s fine if you can’t find a ’higher being,’ but what do you mean by bringing back a ’higher being’ who is just a Void Realm? Haha, mere Void Realm, and dare to shamelessly call herself an ’Immortal,’ not afraid of being a laughingstock."

"Second Brother, the Illusion Gu Immortal is very powerful." The Fourth Prince hurriedly defended, "I heard that the Immortal has recently risen to fame over the past centuries, frequently undertaking tasks to drive away various insect calamities, even repelling invasions of void insect tribes, making significant contributions, which is why I spent years inviting her over."

"Hmph, how capable can a mere Void Realm be?" The Second Prince snorted disdainfully, "Because of this mere Void Realm, you made the Old Ancestor wait for a full hour, truly beyond comprehension."

Although he was also a Void Realm cultivator, he considered himself a quasi-Sacred Seed and had no regard for those of the same level. No matter how famous this "Illusion Gu Immortal" was, how could she be anything more than a Void Realm? Could she possibly cultivate to become a Sacred Supreme in the future?

The Fourth Prince’s face turned red instantly: "Wang Luo Jing and I indeed took some time to verify the real situation of the insect calamity. However, we agreed to arrive at the manor at noon, and it’s not noon yet."

Seeing the two princes quarreling, Tianyang Saint Emperor frowned slightly, somewhat impatient: "Alright, time is running short, let’s proceed with testing the handling plans of both Insect Tamers."

Noticing that the Tianyang Saint Emperor did not overly concern himself with Wang Luo Jing’s background or identity, it was evident that he had little trust in Wang Luo Jing, who was young and had ordinary strength, and was also somewhat dissatisfied with the Fourth Prince’s unreliability. However, he failed to show it out of politeness.

The Second Prince secretly gave a signal to the Seven Insect Immortal Monarch.

The Seven Insect Immortal Monarch understood, immediately sneering: "What does His Majesty mean? Letting a mere Void Realm little girl join me in the evaluation, truly holding my Insect Saint lineage in high regard~"

"This..." Tianyang Saint Emperor frowned slightly.

The arrogant and rebellious attitude of the Seven Insect Immortal Monarch made him somewhat uncomfortable, but at this moment of crucial importance to the Tianyang Theocracy, he dared not offend the Seven Insect Immortal Monarch.

After a pause, he looked at Seven Insect Immortal Monarch inquiringly: "What is your suggestion, Immortal Monarch?"

"Get rid of her. With your Tianyang Theocracy’s insect calamity, I’m here to guarantee its complete eradication." The Seven Insect Immortal Monarch confidently stated.

Hearing him speak so assuredly, Tianyang Saint Emperor’s expression showed some hesitation, only feeling somewhat embarrassed.

The Fourth Prince’s face changed upon seeing this, his heart anxious. However, seeing Wang Luo Jing still calm and indifferent, his heart settled a bit, forcing himself to remain composed.

"If His Majesty chooses to believe that little girl, let her handle it, I bid you farewell then." Seven Insect Immortal Monarch coldly snorted a few times, "As one of the Insect Saint’s disciples, I’m naturally proud."

Such an ultimatum caused anger to rise in Tianyang Saint Emperor’s heart, yet he forcibly suppressed his fury and looked toward the Fourth Prince and Wang Luo Jing.

Just as he was about to speak.

Wang Luo Jing suddenly glanced at the Seven Insect Immortal Monarch and said coldly: "You’re so eager to get rid of me because you’re afraid I’ll expose your conspiracy here?"

"What?"

Conspiracy?!

The people around were shocked and dismayed.

Even Tianyang Saint Emperor couldn’t help but look at Wang Luo Jing, then back at the Seven Insect Immortal Monarch, his expression somewhat uncertain.

"Good for you, little girl, how dare you speak nonsense like this, slandering this Immortal Monarch and the name of the Insect Saint!!" Seven Insect Immortal Monarch’s face also changed dramatically, showing a fierce anger, "Today, if you do not give this Immortal Monarch an account, don’t blame me for being ruthless and unfeeling."

"Hmph~"

Wang Luo Jing couldn’t be bothered to waste words with him, directly rubbing her Storage Ring.

With a "thud," a mature void locust insect corpse fell in front of everyone, but the insect corpse seemed to have been dissected, its limbs were cut with seams, and its head was dismembered into pieces.

She said coldly: "This is a void locust Worm General. I have examined it, and its Bloodline inheritance sequence has been tampered with, deviating from wild void locusts."

"What... do you mean?" Seven Insect Immortal Monarch’s face turned cold, and he demanded angrily.

"Simply put, the queen mother of this void locust lineage has been artificially modified, able to commit suicide upon hearing a command." Wang Luo Jing coldly stated, "The purpose, of course, is to release them into remote human race habitats, causing man-made insect calamities, then emerge to collect high fees for eliminating the calamity."

What!?]

The face of Tianyang Saint Emperor turned black.

Such a protracted insect calamity, causing enormous losses to Tianyang Theocracy, turned out to be man-made?

"What’s more cunning is that this fraud, even after collecting money, would not completely eliminate the insect calamity. Instead, he would ensure it persisted and returned, enabling him to continuously extract benefits. I have found traces of similar cases in three Sacred Domains over the past thousand years." Wang Luo Jing firmly stared at Seven Insect Immortal Monarch, "Do you think, my analysis makes sense?"

"You you you... you are maligning!! You are insulting the reputation of my Insect Saint lineage." Seven Insect Immortal Monarch’s face turned ashen, his voice trembling, "Good for you, little girl, daring to tarnish my Insect Saint empty-mouthed..."

"Enough!"

Seeing his stubbornness, Wang Luo Jing finally lost her patience completely, interrupting his argument coldly: "Stop boasting about the ’Insect Saint lineage’ all the time, take a look at this."

With that, she flipped her wrist, revealing a jet-black Token in her hand.

The token was entirely carved from black jade, the surface depicting a lifelike Saint Rank insect emperor, emanating mysterious energy.

"Insect Saint’s Order?"

The Seven Insect Immortal Monarch was so startled that he took several steps back, his face resembling one who had seen a ghost.

This Insect Saint’s Order symbolizes the mark of the Insect Saint lineage, a total of three, always reserved for the disciples highly valued by the Insect Saint lineage.

The emergence of the Insect Saint’s Order indisputably proved Wang Luo Jing’s identity as a disciple of the Insect Saint lineage.

Seven Insect Immortal Monarch could never have imagined, having been masquerading under the Insect Saint lineage’s banner for so long without being exposed, that today he’d be so misfortunate to directly collide with a true disciple of the Insect Saint lineage!

Knowing that his mischief couldn’t go on any longer, he quickly turned to escape using escape arts.

"I, Wang Luo Jing, will clean house for my Senior Brother Bug Saint, irrelevant parties would best stay out of it." Seeing this, Wang Luo Jing remained calm, yet her words sounded like a spring thunder, booming in everyone’s ears.

Meanwhile.

Her black dress fluttered without wind, and the butterfly pattern on it came to life, suddenly spreading its wings and soaring into the sky.

It was a butterfly with enormous bat wings.

The butterfly was dark gold throughout, its wings bordered with intricate golden patterns, while its center bore a pair of giant ghost-eye patterns, exuding an aura that was mysterious and commanding.

With a gentle flap of its wings, an overwhelming and powerful God Sense pressure suppressed the Seven Insect Immortal Monarch.

What a powerful butterfly!

Witnessing this, the Tianyang Saint Emperor, already enraged by nearly being deceived, experienced a sense of awe.

This butterfly was only about Level Twelve but displayed God Sense stronger than ordinary True Immortals, evidently a naturally exceptional species with profound Bloodline.

What surprised him most was her referring to the Bug Saint as "Senior Brother"!!

What is this girl’s background?
