Chapter 518: Chapter 518: Dragon Family Village

After wailing for a bit, Wen Bin completely melted into a puddle of pus, seeping into the ground, leaving no corpse behind.

Who would have thought, such a small insect would possess such terrifying poison. Moreover, its attack method was too strange, actually spitting poison at a person’s shadow, capable of killing people!

This was virtually unheard of.

Wen Bin’s subordinates were so frightened that their bodies were shaking, they kept a good distance, looking at the small flying insect with terror in their eyes, as if they were watching a demonic insect flying out from hell.

Even the three ancient martial arts Grandmasters were completely cowed at this point.

On the other hand, Ji Yanxue, Ouyang Lingling, and Xia Jian, were both shocked and ecstatic.

What they were happy about was naturally the defeat of Wen Bin and his gang by the poisonous insect, thus gaining the opportunity into Dragon Village.

What shocked them was how terrifying this poisonous insect was.

Especially Ji Yanxue, thinking about how she was just playing with the little insect in the palm of her hand and even saying it was cute, she felt a wave of chill in her heart.

“This time… Young Master Huang didn’t just guess wildly, he… he really made the right choice! This insignificant little flying insect is actually the most powerful poisonous insect!” Xia Jian felt an overwhelming admiration for Huang Xiaolong once again.

Even the old man and the big black dog were quite frightened at this point.

“You… you… you killed someone! You killed someone!” One of Wen Bin’s subordinates yelled at Huang Xiaolong from a distance.

“Huh~~~ Which eyes saw me committing murder? It was obviously the insect who killed the person, it has nothing to do with me.” Huang Xiaolong lazily smiled, then softly spoke the ancient insect language, and the little flying insect flew towards Wen Bin’s subordinates again.

Huang Xiaolong laughed heartily. “If you don’t want to die, you better scram!”

Wen Bin’s subordinates were so scared that they hopped into their SUV like the wind, and quickly drove away.

Only then did Huang Xiaolong use the ancient insect language to summon the small flying insect back, he stretched out a hand, and the tiny creature obediently clambered onto his palm, rolling about, seemingly cajoling Huang Xiaolong.

“My… My God… Young man, you… you actually… you actually tamed a ‘Yue’… a mythical insect from legends… Could it be, you… you understand the ancient technique of taming insects and the ancient insect language?” The old man looked at Huang Xiaolong in astonishment and reverence.

“Haha~~~” Huang Xiaolong just laughed noncommittally.

Ji Yanxue kindly reminded him from the side. “Little Long… You have to be careful, don’t… Don’t let the poison sand that it spits at you touch your body… That’s terribly scary…”

“Not at all.” Huang Xiaolong turned to look at Ji Yanxue, then took the initiative to stretch out his hand, offering the little flying insect to her. “Here, it’s very obedient, very well-behaved, it won’t harm its own people, and it won’t accidentally hurt anyone. Miss Ji, you can play with it.”

“I… I’d rather not.” Ji Yanxue might be quite bold but she wasn’t about to play with fire!

Huang Xiaolong didn’t insist. He opened the lid of the ghost tube and put the little flying insect back inside.

Only at this moment, did the people around breathe a sigh of relief.

This thing was too poisonous, just like a ticking bomb.

“What exactly is this insect?” Ouyang Lingling stared at Huang Xiaolong with wide eyes.

“Hmm… it’s called ‘Yue’…” Huang Xiaolong began to explain. “It is also known as ‘Short Fox’, ‘Water Fox’, ‘Water Crossbow’, ‘Shooter’. It looks like a turtle and has three legs. It’s a creature that can shoot sand at people. There are records in ancient documents— short fox too. Looks like a turtle, has three legs, capable of shooting people with its breath.”

“There really is such a strange bug in this world.” Ouyang Lingling was utterly astonished.

“Of course there is.” Huang Xiaolong nodded very seriously. “It’s only because you haven’t seen it before. There were lots of these “Yue” insects in ancient times, they were also bred by Gu Masters for battle. But in modern times, this kind of insect has almost gone extinct. However, I was lucky to find one on the mountain. It might be the only one left. This thing is definitely rarer than a panda.”

“Yes, young man, you are destined with this divine insect.” The old man walked over now, his face full of admiration. “I suppose, young man, you must know the lost ancient insect language… Amazing, truly amazing.”

“Haha, I have a bit of understanding.” Huang Xiaolong laughed and ran to the body of Mr. Cao. From the bag on his person, he pulled out the black jar he used to hold poisonous insects, opened the jar, and drove all the poisonous insects into the tube of ghosts.

“Little Long, what are you doing?” Ji Yianxue asked curiously.

Huang Xiaolong laughed and replied, “I’m breeding Gu. I put these poisonous insects in here for my spider to eat so that I can eventually breed a ‘spider gu’. This kind of gu has probably disappeared a long time ago. Even in ancient times, anyone who could breed a ‘spider gu’ was one in a million. My ‘spider gu’ will be even more powerful than the ‘Golden Silkworm Gu’.”

When the old man heard Huang Xiaolong wanted to breed a ‘spider gu’, he was so shocked and terrified, he had an even greater admiration for Huang Xiaolong.

At this time, the sun was about to set, the evening glow was splendid, and the horizon was as magnificent as ever.

“Alright, we can go to the Dragon Village now.” Huang Xiaolong laughed.

The old man tried to stop them. “Wait…It’s quite a long way through the mountains to the village from here, night already falling, the mountain roads are difficult to walk with many poisonous insects and beasts, why not rest in my humble abode tonight and set off again tomorrow morning?”

“What are creatures?” Ouyang Lingling asked.

Huang Xiaolong explained casually. “Creatures are unowned Gu insects. These Gu have no master and wander along the mountain trails. When someone passes by, they will rise up to injure them, often resulting in their death.”

“I see…” Ouyang Lingling nodded, a fearful expression appearing in her eyes.

“Young man, you are quite knowledgeable.” The old man praised.

After discussing with Ji Yianxue, Huang Xiaolong accepted the old man’s invitation to stay in his humble abode for the night and set off for Dragon Village the following morning.

Since Mo Shaofeng’s men had been driven away and his trusted aide Wen Bin had even died a gruesome death, they didn’t need to worry about anyone sneaking into Dragon Village and harming Ji Yianxue’s biological mother.

Moreover, it’s said that Ji Yianxue’s mother is incredibly powerful, likely a Gu Master or Insect Trainer.

Regular assassins simply can’t get close to such a remarkable person.

After Huang Xiaolong and his friends agreed to stay, the old man, who was simple and honest, immediately began preparing dinner. He raised some chickens and ducks behind his cottage and grew a few acres of vegetables, even types of grains like rice.

They ate their dinner out in the open. The rice grown in the mountain was especially sweet and fragrant. The rice they cooked was heartwarming, full of flavor. The farm chicken, duck, wild pork, smoked meat, and vegetables tasted delicious to the extreme.

Ji Yianxue, Ouyang Lingling, and Xia Jian particularly enjoyed the meal.

At the dinner table, Huang Xiaolong asked about the situation in Dragon Village.

After a few mouthfuls of the old liquor, the old man let loose. He didn’t hide anything and answered Huang Xiaolong’s questions truthfully.

As it turned out, Dragon Village was a near-paradise village where the villagers led a self-sufficient lifestyle. A long time ago, an immortal came to the village to gather herbs and concoct pills. The villagers adored and served him. When the immortal left, he left behind techniques of insect taming and Gu keeping.

The Gu keeping techniques were beneficial to people, almost like medical skills. It was only due to misuse by those with malicious intentions that the name of Gu keeping had been tarnished.

“By the way, who is the most skilled person in Dragon Village at insect taming and Gu keeping?” Huang Xiaolong asked casually.

The old man hesitated as if there was something he was reluctant to discuss, but he eventually answered. “In the history of our Dragon Village, the person with the greatest talent for insect taming and Gu keeping is a woman. Her name is ‘Long Lan’. Whether in insect taming or Gu keeping, there’s no one in the village who can match her. However… However, about twenty years ago, a man came to the village. Long Lan fell in love with him and had a daughter with him. The man took away Long Lan’s newborn daughter and never returned. This drove Long Lan to madness and changed her. Today… Today she… she hardly leaves her home, and the villagers… are… a bit scared of her…”

Long Lan!!!!!!!!

Upon hearing the name, Ji Yianxue’s delicate body visibly shivered, and her eyes welled up with tears!
