352: How did you do that?

As his voice fell, Ye Jiu spread his hands, his golden claws hooking in the air, manifesting a faint blue light. He muttered under his breath, "Insect of the mother gu, blood tide surging, rise!"

Hearing this, Fu Feng immediately flew backward, but he didn't dare to let go of the gu insect in his claws easily.

This thing beneath his feet was too sinister. If it accidentally fell into the Endless Sea, it would be a devastating disaster for the Sea Beastmen.

The Merman King had helped them so much; it wouldn't be right to throw this gu insect down.

He flapped his wings, speeding up his flight, and soon arrived beside Su Luoluo.

Seeing the others looking at him in unison, he smiled and said, "It's fine, don't worry about me. At worst, I just won't eat and starve it to death."

Xi Yi said faintly upon hearing this, "It drinks blood, you eat meat. If you starve to death, it can still drink. You'll die before it does."

Fu Feng: "..."

Xi Yi quietly raised his hand behind his back, intending to snatch the insect away.

Suddenly, Su Luoluo waved her hand in the air and shouted to Fu Feng, "Fu Feng, let go of your claws, throw it!"

Before Fu Feng could even react, his body honestly followed Su Luoluo's command and released his claws. Instantly, the gu insect was thrown down from the air with a "whoosh."

Only after throwing it did Fu Feng realize what he had done, and his eyes instantly widened at Su Luoluo.

Did Luoluo know what she had made him do?

Before he could cry out.

Immediately after, an ice pillar hundreds of feet high shot out into the air, freezing the gu insect he had just thrown down in an instant.

Fu Feng's throat tightened, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.

Last time it was an iceberg, this time it was an ice pillar; Luoluo's style was really becoming more and more distinct.

This ice pillar had pierced straight up from the seabed; it must be hundreds of meters long if stretched out!

This scene was quite spectacular; calling it a Celestial Pillar wouldn't be an exaggeration.

This shocking move didn't just stun Fu Feng; even the Sea Beastmen who had come out behind Nan Yao were dazed.

This... the gu insect could be handled like this?

However, before they could recover, Ye Jiu transformed into his dragon form, leaped out of the water, and struck the ice pillar with a palm. "Hmph! A mere ice pillar, do you think you can stop me?"

"Lower Realm Female, you underestimate me too much!"

Hearing this, Fu Feng's expression changed in alarm, and he was about to act, but Su Luoluo waved her hand at him, signaling him to come over.

Fu Feng looked confused, not knowing what Luoluo wanted to do.

But she always had many ideas, so he obediently listened to her.

The Beast Husbands behind her also frowned at the situation.

However, Luoluo had just given them a look, so they didn't act rashly.

The hundreds-of-meters-long ice pillar stood on the sea surface, so long and thick that the mother gu couldn't be seen with the naked eye.

Ye Jiu could only cast a spell to sense it again. After confirming the gu insect was about ten meters above the sea surface, he condensed wind in his palm and shattered the upper half of the ice pillar.

With a "bang," the hundreds-of-feet-long ice pillar that had just formed instantly exploded into shards above the water, falling scattered onto the sea surface, bobbing up and down.

Ye Jiu ignored the shards and waved his palm again, cutting off the middle section of the ice pillar containing the gu insect, finally snatching it back.

Seeing the gu insect back in his hand, Ye Jiu smiled triumphantly. "I thought you actually had some ability, but it turns out to be nothing more than this?"

After speaking, he waved his other palm in the air, instantly igniting a flame to melt the ice in his hand. Before long, the gu insect encased in the ice gradually melted out and returned to his hand.

Looking at the returned gu insect, he gave a treacherous smile. "Just wait to be drained of your blood and die by my gu insect!"

Su Luoluo smiled upon hearing this. "Alright! I'm waiting!"

"Still stubborn in the face of death? Let me teach you a lesson!"

As he spoke, six golden Talismans ignited at his fingertips, which he then applied to the gu insect in his hand. With a cold sneer, he was about to fling the blood insect at the group, but the golden Talismans had already burned to ash, while the mother gu in his hand didn't move at all. His expression instantly changed.

Immediately, another six golden Talismans ignited at his fingertips as he commanded the mother gu in his hand: "My gu insect, go!"

However, after he said this, the gu insect in his palm still didn't react at all.

He couldn't help but frown and changed the command: "Blood-devourer, go quickly!"

The gu insect in his hand still had no reaction.

Ye Jiu's brow furrowed deeper and deeper as he gave a series of commands to the gu insect.

"Blood, go!"

"Blood, chase!"

"Blood, burrow!"

"Blood, fly!"

...However, he talked for a long time until his mouth was almost dry, yet the gu insect in his palm remained motionless, showing no reaction at all.

Nan Yao was initially worried when he saw the gu insect return to Ye Jiu's hand, but after seeing the specific look Su Luoluo gave him, he waited by the side.

After waiting and waiting, he only heard the Great Shaman of the Dragon Clan unable to command the gu insect in his hand.

Listening from the side, he laughed until tears came out.

"I say, Great Shaman of the Dragon Clan, are you capable or not?"

"I've been waiting for ages, and there's no movement at all. Why don't you go back and rehearse before coming here again?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the sea beasts following Nan Yao also burst into laughter.

Some of the bolder ones also started chiming in.

"Yeah! We're still waiting for your gu insect! Is this all it can do? It seems the Great Shaman of the Dragon Clan's level is just so-so!"

"Exactly. I thought the Dragon Clan was so powerful, but this one gu insect hasn't moved for so long. If he's not embarrassed, I'm embarrassed for him."

"Hey, Great Shaman of the Dragon Clan, you wouldn't happen to be a fake, would you? Call your real Great Shaman out! It's late; don't waste everyone's sleep."

"Hahahaha..."

For a time, all sorts of disparagement and laughter echoed over the sea.

Ye Jiu's face turned ashen upon hearing this. His gu insect had always listened to him; how could it suddenly become like this?

His gu insect didn't react at all.

It was fine when he was casting the spell just now, except... thinking of this, his gaze became like a venomous snake, glaring viciously at Su Luoluo across from him, his voice cold and sinister: "vile female, what did you do to my mother gu?"

Not only was Ye Jiu puzzled by this question, but Luan Ting, Mo Xuan, Fu Feng, and Xi Yi, who were standing next to Su Luoluo, were also confused.

Luoluo seemed to have been prepared from the start to deal with these gu insects.

But they were right beside her and hadn't seen her do anything.

Could it be that?

Luan Ting and Xi Yi seemed to think of something and exchanged a look in the air, finding it somewhat unbelievable.

That works too?
