Zhang Zidao and Yu Longting worked together to suppress the Golden Beetle, Lei Duqian, with a water talisman. As the protagonist provided spiritual garments for Dumpling and Zhang Zidao, Yu Longting was gifted imperial robes. The beetle revealed its ancient enemy, Shenghui, and its connection to Zhao Sihai. Amidst the struggle, Yu Qingxiao suddenly appeared and confronted the beetle, revealing his intention to spare it.

"Then why are you meddling now? Unlike you, I’m not a Boundary-Inspecting Immortal Envoy and can just descend as I please," Lei Duqian questioned. "I need to take advantage of Heaven’s Gate opening to return using the body of this golden-bodied Gu Speaker."

Boundary-Inspecting Immortal Envoy??

Dragon Dad is actually of such status.

I blinked at Yu Longting, implying Dragon Dad might inherently be a True Dragon.

He, Yu Rongling, and Lin Xintang are all from the Dragon Clan...

Yu Longting’s mouth twitched, and he shook his head at me.

Indicating he was completely unaware.

"If you want to blame someone, blame your bad luck. The Gu Speaker you chose is my daughter-in-law," Yu Qingxiao sighed and shook out a Green Jade Pagoda from his monk robe sleeve. "You’ve returned once more, not only wanting to kill my son and grandson but also my daughter-in-law. Even if I don’t want to deal with you, I have to."

"Shenghui!!! You... you..." Lei Duqian was so angry he stuttered, "You’re an Immortal Envoy, yet you dared to consort with humans in the Mortal Realm and have offspring."

"Ah, this would indeed have been a serious crime in the past. I waited patiently for Zhao Sihai to break the rules first before daring to wed. With his relationship with the Emperor, he naturally sorted it out early, and with amended rules, I reaped the benefits."

Yu Qingxiao is definitely a demon among demons. Even though he has no hair, it doesn’t affect his looks at all.

He even seems sacred and mysterious.

He’s basically a Demon Monk who pressed the beetle into the Jade Tower and shouted, "You two, hurry and help me."

I might have been too eager to help, thinking I was one of the two.

Along with Yu Longting and Zhang Zidao, I raised my hand to form seals, channeling Spiritual Power into the Jade Tower.

Then, a pair of small hands joined in, pressing on the Jade Tower together.

Little Dumpling looked serious, helping us suppress Lei Duqian inside the Jade Tower.

The Jade Tower was freezing layer by layer, subduing the beetle within.

At this moment, I realized only the three of us understood just how powerful Lei Duqian was and the gap between us.

Even Yu Qingxiao himself needed to enlist everyone’s help to deal with Lei Duqian.

"Old man, explain clearly, what is going on??" Yu Longting, worried about me, supported my waist, checking my body.

After all, I had just lit the Life Lamp to fight Lei Duqian, but actually, after refining the third Three Corpse God and attaining the golden body,

my entire body was reshaped, including the Life Lamp, so now my body was perfectly fine.

Realizing my body was unharmed, Yu Longting’s expression eased a bit.

Yu Qingxiao scratched his nose and sighed, "This is a long story, my precious son."

"Then make it short!!" Yu Longting wore an expression as if ready to bite Yu Qingxiao.

Yu Qingxiao did indeed make it short; he recounted that enmity with Lei Duqian arose up above, and Lei Duqian also bore a grudge against Zhao Sihai.

Cultivators are like this—spend their free time cultivating.

Once Combat Power is strong, they look for fights.

It’s easy to make enemies; it’s just that no one is as persistent as Lei Duqian.

He saw Zhao Sihai being assigned down, Yu Qingxiao frequently descending due to official duties,

so he descended in secret, seeking to eliminate Zhao Sihai and Yu Qingxiao.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Sihai and Yu Qingxiao anticipated Lei Duqian’s actions and had already teamed up.

The two set up an ambush and crippled Lei Duqian, who was far more powerful.

Lei Duqian’s golden body was destroyed, and his Primordial Spirit scattered to prevent future troubles.

Fortunately, he was powerful enough to preserve a strand of consciousness.

He possessed a Gu Insect and even created a Miao Village to guard him.

Tianying Village was a force personally established by Lei Duqian, serving the Immortal Gu for generations.

Unable to speak, he remained in insect form.

He then had to cultivate Gu Speakers, who appear only in certain generations, within those who serve.

Lei Duqian achieved his current Immortal Gu power by killing countless Gu Insects, cultivating into the form of a Fire Gourd Insect.

The Ten Thousand Poison Hall’s emergence came because Zhao Sihai discovered Lei Duqian was still alive and specifically set it up to counter Tianying Village.

Zhao Zheng was unaware of these reasons, thinking Zhao Sihai captured Immortal Gu to increase strength.

"According to you, wasn’t everything a total mistake??" Yu Longting shrugged.
