In fact, just as Ye Yu said, the Boundless Salamander was not Lai Qiguan’s gu insect.
They—and even Ding Zhihao—already knew the news that the Boundless Salamander had been swallowed by the Heavenly Remnant Devouring Gu insect.
It could be said that their visit this time was precisely because of the Heavenly Remnant Devouring Gu insect.
Previously, when Yourong City was completely teleported away, many immortals were present.
Those who survived by luck told what they had encountered, and by coincidence, Lai Qiguan learned of this.
From their descriptions, he deduced that the thousand-zhang-long gu insect was indeed the Boundless Salamander he had long coveted.
Overall, both Lai Qiguan and Yun Jiexin were gu immortals, and in the Heavenly Realm, cultivators practicing this path were rare.
Therefore, the two naturally knew each other.
Lai Qiguan had long envied the nearly perfect gu insect that was the Boundless Salamander.
But unlike Yun Jiexin’s madness, he hadn’t transformed himself into a gu creature, so naturally he could not produce a Boundless Salamander.
This matter had long tormented him.
Now, hearing that this perfect gu insect was directly swallowed by a hedgehog immortal beast made Lai Qiguan ecstatic.
If there was a better immortal pet than the Boundless Salamander, why not just refine it directly? What use was the Boundless Salamander then?
Thus, Lai Qiguan invited his mid-stage Immortal King friend Ding Zhihao to accompany him to Yourong City—to ensure nothing went wrong.
Yesterday, Lai Qiguan and Ding Zhihao had already arrived near Yourong City.
However, they did not act immediately; instead, Lai Qiguan sent over a thousand gu insects into the city to observe where that hedgehog-like immortal beast was.
Now that they had finally found it, they naturally would not let it go.
Lai Qiguan then feigned anger and said, “The Boundless Salamander is my gu insect. And you say my gu insect is dead—how exactly did it die? Tell me!”
Ye Yu sneered, “It ate too much and burst. Believe that if you want.”
Lai Qiguan instantly showed a dark expression. A gu insect eating itself to death? Impossible!
“Immortal friend, you’re completely underestimating my intelligence! Do I really look like a fool?”
Suppressing his anger, Lai Qiguan muttered, “That’s nonsense! I don’t believe it died from overeating!”
“You may not believe it, but do you have proof it didn’t?”
Ye Yu’s words left Lai Qiguan speechless.
He hadn’t expected to meet such a silver-tongued fellow—how could he reasonably spin the Boundless Salamander’s death and pin it on Ye Yu’s immortal pet?
He couldn’t say he already knew beforehand—that would contradict earlier statements!
Lai Qiguan’s thoughts raced as he searched for a ★ 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ★ way out.
At that moment, Ye Yu calmly said, “Enough of the act! You came here specifically for us. Otherwise, why would you place gu insects under the stone slabs?”
“I don’t understand all this, but I know that if it were your gu insect, you would sense its location even from far away.”
“As for life and death, you would be fully aware.”
“If the Boundless Salamander really were your immortal beast, you wouldn’t be coming to look for it now.”
“So my point is, let’s stop pretending. Say what you want to say openly—I have no time for your stories!”
Lai Qiguan furrowed his brows in frustration.
An expert—someone who knew about gu insect breeding—was not easily fooled.
Little did they know, Ye Yu had experienced so many dreams meeting various immortals.
