Qingtong successfully extracted a poisonous insect from Hu Fei's body, saving him from its drain. Although weakened, Hu Fei is expected to recover with rest. Qingtong reveals the insect is a "Gu" and asserts control over it using a technique from her past life battling the Gushen Sect.

Qingtong extended her hand, dispelling the energy cage that confined the Poisonous Insect Mother. After a brief hover, the creature alighted on her shoulder, remaining still.

"Buzz!"

Possibly sensing the absence of its partner or the loss of connection, the distant, invisible sound waves grew increasingly frantic.

Even Hu Zhongtian and Chu Lingfeng perceived the shift.

"Master?"

Chu Lingfeng turned to Qingtong.

She cast a glance towards the source of the unseen sonic disturbance before swiftly moving in that direction.

"You need not follow."

Qingtong mused that confronting techniques like the Poisonous Insect Method was not a matter of sheer numbers; indeed, such an approach could invite disaster, allowing the opponent to seize control.

Following the trail of the invisible sound waves, Qingtong made her way towards the outskirts of Barbaric City.

Beyond the city walls, in a secluded and hidden ravine, a man clad in black robes repeatedly blew a short whistle.

The high-pitched, inaudible waves emanated from the instrument, yet no reply was forthcoming.

"What is happening? How did the Poisonous Insect Mother suddenly lose contact?"

The black-robed man's countenance darkened considerably.

He had previously received a response, confirming the successful awakening of the Poisonous Insect Mother.

But now, all communication had abruptly ceased!

It felt as though an invisible thread connecting him to the Poisonous Insect Mother had been severed.

Yet, this Poisonous Insect Mother was nurtured with the Sect Leader's very own blood, and this Poisonous Insect Flute was the very artifact that enabled its control!

Aside from the Sect Leader himself, who else possessed the ability to break the bond between the Poisonous Insect Flute and its companion?

The black-robed man was utterly baffled, struggling to comprehend the turn of events.

Could it be that the Sect Leader had a change of heart and ordered the Poisonous Insect Mother to cease its pursuit of Hu Fei?

But once the Poisonous Insect Mother was roused, it would not return to dormancy!

Furthermore, Hu Fei's peculiar condition was bound to draw unwanted attention!

What was the Sect Leader's motive?

Was it not stipulated that Hu Fei's circumstances were to remain undiscovered?

Laden with questions and uncertainty, the black-robed man suddenly gestured to the group surrounding him. "Let's go, we must investigate the Hu Family!"

He resolved to uncover the truth behind this perplexing situation.

However, before they could make their move, a figure, as graceful as a startled swan and as elusive as a phantom, materialized before them.

"There's no need to go anywhere. You are looking for the Poisonous Insect Mother, aren't you? I have already brought her to you!"

Qingtong declared, raising a hand. The Poisonous Insect Mother, which had been resting on her shoulder, unfurled its six pairs of golden wings and took flight, alighting upon her index fingertip.

Its delicate form, shimmering with a faint golden luminescence, immediately captivated the attention of the black-robed men, their faces contorting in shock.

"You! The Poisonous Insect Mother?!"

The members of the Witchcraft Sect were astounded; they had never imagined that the Poisonous Insect Mother, a creature they could not control without the specialized flute, would calmly and obediently perch on the fingertip of the young individual before them!

Who was this person? How could they possibly command the Poisonous Insect Mother?!

While the Witchcraft Sect disciples stared in disbelief, Qingtong's gaze calmly swept over them.

Then, with a flick of her finger, she commanded,

"Go."

At her words, the Poisonous Insect Mother instantly beat its wings and shot towards the group from the Witchcraft Sect.

"Oh no!"

Witnessing the Poisonous Insect Mother's sudden assault, the disciples were instantly thrown into disarray.
