Chapter 834: Chapter 288: Bizarre Robbery [Two in One]_2 Chapter 834: Chapter 288: Bizarre Robbery [Two in One]_2 “Illusory Silkworm…”
Cat Emperor sighed, “It’s already a transcendent species, soaring above the vast majority of creatures in this world… For such a being that has always been high and mighty, over the years, even the ethereal silk it produces is nothing but the discarded leftovers it unintentionally spews out, remnants that have beco another legend of this world.”
“There’s no way it would actively offer help to anyone.”
“Creatures like that are destined to be difficult to deal with. The fact that you’ve had so interaction with it is already comndable. Don’t be impatient.”
Feng Yin snorted and said, “Right now it’s just freeloading off , acting all high and mighty, not even offering the bare minimum of courtesy as if I should be grateful to it for its freeloading… That won’t do! I can’t indulge this behavior!”
“What can you do then? The Illusory Silkworm is notoriously difficult to deal with.”
“Difficult to deal with? Hmph, just wait until it’s been in contact with longer—it will see just how much harder I am to deal with. Did it think that my favors are so easy to take advantage of?!”
“Haha…”
Even with a belly full of frustration, Cat Emperor couldn’t help but be amused by Feng Yin’s words.
Feng Yin’s statent was truly without any modesty.
Those familiar with him knew that he was, to so extent, just like Jiao Sansheng, the type of stubborn mule that you can’t pull along if you try, and who only backs up when pushed.
To say that he’s even more difficult to deal with than the Illusory Silkworm is indeed no exaggeration—as long as you don’t let him get the upper hand, he will surely retaliate.
It is the so-called gentleman’s revenge that takes ten years to exact, and the small man’s revenge from dawn to dusk. Well, do not assu these two are distinct; when it cos to Feng Yin, they quite fittingly describe him: if there’s no chance, he can wait ten years, but if there is one, from dawn to dusk!
“The current issue is, does the Illusory Silkworm permanently reside here, untouched by the mortal world? Or can it freely co and go between this space and the human realm?”
Peng Wanli ca this ti as usual without any gain, his face showing a helpless and warm smile, but he pointed out a key issue.
“No worries, once the ten days are up, we’ll return first. Since ethereal silk has appeared on the Anping Continent, that should be enough evidence that the Illusory Silkworm can get there too!”
Feng Yin chuckled and said, “Wait until I lay so bait for this damned Illusory Silkworm, then we’ll see if it doesn’t chase after !”
Cat Emperor’s eyes brightened.
If that’s the case… then there’s much more hope.
Even if things don’t go as wished and the Illusory Silkworm has settled here, not involving itself in worldly affairs, then that would be all there is to it when they co back later.
In the two days before they left the Three Realms Trade Fair, all of Feng Yin’s actions were full of shrewd moves.
He no longer limited himself to transforming specific spirit plants in his tent but instead chose to leave all four tents under his control completely empty.
Then he began to move between the tents. Of course, his shrewd moves were not limited to this—he placed a piece of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures in each tent.
Well, his so-called rampaging back and forth, followed by sudden cultivation, was the kind that was quick, touch and go; each ti releasing no more than a third of the Spirit Gathering power at most, then he would stop imdiately, sit down to ditate, rotating his cultivation and rejuvenating his spirit.
In such a short span of ti, the Illusory Silkworm could not react at all, which naturally ant there was no free ride.
Even though its spiritual consciousness followed Feng Yin, it was still aningless—after all, its freeloading always required the extension of ethereal silk to make contact.
But non-targeted transformation of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures would inevitably have a ti lag, yet that small amount of ti was not enough for the Illusory Silkworm to pinpoint and extend its ethereal silk over, was it?
Luckily, the ethereal silk was extrely delicate, nearly invisible and traceless.
Otherwise, it would inevitably beco a spectacle since every once in a while, a strand of silk would swipe down from Cloud Top, miss its target, and then hover aimlessly in mid-air for a while before reluctantly retreating back up.
And then… it would swipe down once again at a terrifying speed.
Despite that, the Illusory Silkworm’s attempts were still fruitless, with no gains whatsoever.
Swipe!
Missed!
Swipe swipe swipe…
Miss after miss, all in vain.
Feng Yin didn’t know what the Illusory Silkworm was feeling, but at the mont, he felt pretty good about himself. After all, he was toying with the legendary Illusory Silkworm, a powerful creature that even Elder Peng and Cat Emperor working together couldn’t handle.
“After a series of actions like this, I’m sure this guy must be close to breaking point.”
Feng Yin had his own principles: you are the world’s sole ethereal creature, precious and rare, indeed a legend of this age, true! But, if you give nothing, want nothing to do with , yet expect to keep enjoying the benefits I offer, free-riding off …
Where in the world does such a good deal exist?
You may be incredible, but that doesn’t concern . I’ve put in the effort, I should get the corresponding benefits.
If you aren’t willing to benefit , why should I let you take advantage?
The cause and effect of this world are simply as such.
I tried to negotiate with you nicely, and you ignored , so then let’s play this ga!
I couldn’t care less if you’re frustrated or helpless… Right now, I’m going to enjoy myself first.
This power struggle lasted until the ten-day limit was fully reached, and Feng Yin and his companions didn’t choose any other course of action to remain, but rather, they imdiately packed up to leave.
Leaving at the first opportunity was also a way to test a possibility, the possibility regarding the Illusory Silkworm!
After all, they had unexpectedly discovered where the Illusory Silkworm dwelled; what followed was just communication and many trials!
And at the mont when the four of them set off.
Feng Yin distinctly felt a subtle, indescribable sensation, as if a powerful ntal force was watching him, filled with reluctance to part and a taste of dissatisfaction.
