Chapter 1933 - 1519: Osmanthus Insect Child, Manman!

Although Manman Bug harbored some grudges against Gu Changsheng, after all, Gu Changsheng was its host!

This fact, even though Manman Bug’s proud little heart was very reluctant to admit, couldn’t be changed!

It and Gu Changsheng were like grasshoppers on the same rope, sharing glory and loss, inseparable from each other!

At this moment, seeing someone extracting Gu Changsheng’s memory, how could Manman Bug endure it?

This was simply ignoring the existence of its Insect God and challenging its dignity!

"Who dares to be so bold, to bully my host!"

Manman Bug immediately disregarded Gu Changsheng lying on the ground, shook off the bloodstains on its body, and chased toward the source of the faint golden light.

It hadn’t expected that after waking from its slumber, it would see such a scene.

Gu Changsheng, this mortal, was bold and reckless; Manman Bug had known long ago, but her skills were not lacking either, especially after her father, of considerable prowess, died for her, her cultivation level soared. In principle, no one should dare to bully her in this mundane world!

Yet, there was indeed someone who bullied her, and it was done while it was asleep!

Manman Bug immediately remembered Gu Taitian’s last words. He gave it the Void Breaking Force, begging it to take good care of his daughter. Manman Bug, though not human, was still somewhat a higher existence as an Insect God!

Although it lost its Divine Body as an Insect God, its pride as an Insect God remained. It wouldn’t disgrace itself with betrayal and treachery. Having gained benefits from Gu Taitian, and sharing disgrace and glory with Gu Changsheng, how could it just watch her being bullied by an outsider?

In the Sixth Layer of the Star Innate Tower, Ta You’s small phantom knelt beside Gu Changsheng, looking at the mottled Memory Fragments in his hand continuously forming into a light sphere, eyes filled with contemplation. Suddenly hearing Manman Bug’s outcry, Ta You couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows, looking toward Gu Changsheng’s brow...

There, was the wounded and rolled flesh pierced by his golden dagger, and at this moment, a Holy Golden Little Bug was struggling to crawl out from that wound...

Upon seeing the Holy Golden Phantom of Manman in an instant, a trace of nostalgia appeared on Ta You’s face, his other empty hand couldn’t help but reach out...

"Who on earth has the audacity to bully my host?" Struggling to crawl out from its shattered nest, Manman Bug’s figure was unspeakably embarrassed, but on that tiny bug face, there was only a look of rage.

Someone actually dared to challenge the dignity of Insect God Manman, to bully Gu Changsheng, it was truly an intolerable matter!

"Osmanthus Insect Child..."

But Manman Bug, just crawling out, had no time to look around, when it heard such a voice sounding in its ear.

Manman Bug’s originally alert and tense body instantly stumbled, standing unsteady, it directly fell from Gu Changsheng’s brow...

Osmanthus Insect Child!

Osmanthus Insect Child!

Manman Bug, though having forgotten the entirities of the Ancient Wilderness Times and the past, still remembered its own origin. Its true form was merely an insect born from the Osmanthus Tree, which from time since the Ancestral God opened the heavens stood among the All Heavens, had not borne a single insect for thousands of years, but now it had given birth to it, wasn’t it rare?

Thus, it ascended to godhood with the body of a post-birth insect, however, how it ascended, how it lost its Divine Body, how it lost its memory, Manman Bug couldn’t remember any of these...

Only, this cry of Osmanthus Insect Child, was exceedingly shocking to Manman!

Although it didn’t remember the past tales of the Ancient Wilderness, it distinctly remembered itself as an Osmanthus Insect Child, vaguely, a person used to always point at its plump little bug body, gently calling, "Osmanthus Insect Child, Osmanthus Insect Child..."

But who exactly was calling it so, even with all effort to recall, Manman Bug couldn’t figure it out!

Yet, just now, it actually heard someone call it Osmanthus Insect Child!

"Who? Who? Who are you?"

The expected pain from hitting the ground didn’t arrive, as if caught by a hand. The temperature of that hand was warm but carried a faint chill. The Manman Bug hurriedly crawled up from that palm, raised its two antennae, and lifted its head cautiously to look upward...

In the hazy light, there seemed to be the silhouette of a child, indistinct, with no clear features. The entire body of the Manman Bug stood on high alert, staring with its large insect eyes, watching Ta You warily, and shouted in a deep voice, "Who exactly are you? How do you know my true self? Why do you call me that? And why are you extracting the memories of my host? What do you intend to do!"

Ta You lowered his eyes. His eyes, containing the light of the stars, looked fondly at the phantom of the Manman Bug standing in his palm, as if lost in reminiscence, unable to extricate himself...

"Hey! Speak! I’m asking you a question, and you dare to ignore me! Who exactly are you?" Manman is not a patient character. Seeing Ta You ignoring him, he immediately tapped with his toes, and the tiny Holy Golden projection soared into the air, ascending to face Ta You who seemed enshrouded in mist, and his insect face was full of vigilance.

"Osmanthus Insect Child, you are still the same as before, with a fiery temper..."

Only when his palm was empty did Ta You return from his memories, responding slowly as he watched the Manman Bug in front of him, looking ready for a fight, a slight fondness appeared on his normally expressionless face.

"You! You! Stop calling me Osmanthus Insect Child! Who exactly are you? In this Post-Ancient Era, no one knows my true self. Even the Human God Shang Clan has no record of my origin. How do you know? Who exactly are you? You’re hurting my host, what do you intend to do?" At Ta You’s seemingly careless words, the Manman Bug exploded on the spot!

The more relaxed Ta You seemed, the more nervous he became, especially seeing the memory fragments gathering into a ball in Ta You’s other hand, making the Manman Bug even more restless!

This child is too horrifying!

It’s not just that he revealed his true self with one word; he even has the power to strip away someone’s memories!

Even as the Insect God, the Manman felt an inexplicable dread from deep within. Although it did not understand the source of this dread, it dared not act rashly. As though any move it made would result in the child who knew its roots crushing it to pieces!

But it is an Insect God!

Though just a wisp of Divine Breath, in this Post-Ancient Era, it’s unthinkable that anyone, or anything, could pose such a threat to it!

After all, there are no gods here!

So who exactly is this child?

"Looking back, my merciful thought of leaving you a wisp of Divine Breath, not letting you completely vanish from this world, I never expected that today, you would dare to speak to me so loudly!" Ta You remarked regretfully, shaking his head at the Manman Bug clamoring endlessly in front of him.

Upon hearing this, the Manman Bug instantly felt its heart tighten. It raised a little insect claw, pointing at Ta You, speechless for a moment. It took quite a while to regain its voice, its little body trembling, and stammered, "You! You! You left me a wisp of Divine Breath? You! You wouldn’t be related to the loss of my memory of the Divine Body, would you? Who are you? Are you from the Ancient Wilderness?"

Every time the Manman Bug tried to recall the past, it felt a burst of pain in its brains, so eventually, it stopped trying.

But today, with the past being brought up again, and the person in front possibly being the culprit for its current state, could the Manman Bug possibly not react explosively?

Yet even when furious, it was only out of anxiety!

If this child in front truly was the culprit behind losing its Divine Body, it, without the Divine Body, would still be no match!

The Manman Bug almost wanted to retreat, but seeing Gu Changsheng lying motionless on the ground behind, it dared not move back!

Entrusted with someone’s task, it must remain loyal. It couldn’t stand by while Gu Changsheng suffered an accident right in front of it; otherwise, how could it face Gu Taitian’s instructions?

"Who exactly are you? Was it you who harmed me back then, right? Now you come to harm my host again? Am I right? I’m telling you, no way! I won’t let you have your way! If you don’t stop, I will take action!"

The Manman Bug spoke, raising its two little insect claws. Although it had no assurance of victory against this mysterious child, it could not retreat any further. Otherwise, what about the pesky mortal, Gu Changsheng? Just stand by as her memories were extracted, turning her into someone without a past?

"You are indeed still as before, hot-tempered and arrogant! Not only that, but you have also attempted to overstep your duties again, almost ruining her important affair!" Ta You watched the Manman Bug before him, shaking his head as he spoke again.

At these words, the Manman Bug retreated a step in shock.

It was sure that it had never encountered this mysterious child, yet the child knew it inside out!

How could it not be filled with deep-seated dread?
