Chapter 934 - 920: Pheromone
Listening to these words, Su Muyao’s expression changed slightly, "So, that Phoenix Tree Beastman is connected to the Demon Beast."
Otherwise, it would be impossible to get the Demon Beast’s Dark Flame Ability to give to Lin Xu.
Just to make Lin Xu kill her.
Yun Qinglan’s expression also became somewhat grave, "It seems that the Plant-Type Beastman is colluding with the Demon Beast too."
Thus, the situation seems rather tricky.
However, this also made Yun Qinglan understand one thing, which is that he needs to become the Beast God as soon as possible.
At present, Yun Qinglan couldn’t care about anything else, only thinking of disrupting the Plant-Type Beastman and Demon Beast’s scheme.
His wife wants to protect this world, wishes for him to become the Beast God, so he will do what she hopes for.
Su Muyao’s gaze also deepened.
"Why is that Phoenix Tree Beastman colluding with the Demon Beast?"
Lin Xu chuckled lightly and said, "Naturally, to kill you for the sake of his beloved female."
"Who is his beloved female?"
Su Muyao felt this person was key.
Lin Xu shook her head and said, "I don’t know, that lord wouldn’t possibly tell me about such a person."
"But he promised that as long as I completed the task, killing you would be a great achievement, and by then he would help me restore my body. At that time, I would obtain Liu Mengyan’s powers, and my strength would be enhanced."
Su Muyao thought she was daydreaming, "Liu Mengyan and that split body Xia Min are already dead."
Lin Xu said, "As long as an Insect Clan Beastman becomes the Beast God, or a Demon Beast becomes the Demon God, there’s a way to give me those powers. I will become a complete Insect Beastman, a Seven-star Spider Beastman."
Moreover, by that time, only her own consciousness would remain, without Liu Mengyan or Xia Min’s consciousness.
"What else?"
"What else did he promise you?"
Lin Xu’s eyes revealed a yearning and greedy expression, answering, "He said he would help me activate the Secret Technique to restore ancestral female pheromones, which can attract outstanding males, making them devoted to me."
Su Muyao’s expression shifted, "Pheromones?"
"Insect Clan female pheromones?"
Lin Xu mechanically replied, "Yes, exactly pheromones."
"In the Insect Clan, a long time ago, advanced female pheromones were catastrophically attractive to male Beastmen. As long as we emitted this scent, it would make male Beastmen utterly devoted to us. But later, for some reason, probably since using some Evil Techniques taught by the Demon Beast for strength enhancement, this female pheromone disappeared."
The system spoke, "Host, Beastmen have pheromones too. When you smell your Beast Husband’s unique scent, it’s their pheromones that smell differently."
"Previously, the Evil Thought Soul occupying your body was extremely negative, so the pheromones emitted were unpleasant. But after you returned, your scent became pleasant."
"Host, whenever you get emotional, or your Beast Husbands do, this pheromone becomes more intense, with a heat-enhancing effect."
Su Muyao listened to the system’s words and roughly understood.
No wonder sometimes when embraced by her Beast Husbands, or in emotional moments, their scent felt so rich, just a single breath would fill it with their scent, so that’s how it was.
"However, the Insect Clan Queen’s pheromones were the most powerful type. In the past, the Insect Clan Queen could control the entire Insect Clan, but throughout evolution, for reasons unknown, this Insect Clan Queen’s pheromones have long vanished."
"In today’s Beast World, the Heavenly Dao doesn’t allow this existence; otherwise, the entire Insect Clan would be invincible."
"Lin Xu is still foolishly dreaming of ancestral pheromones, which have long disappeared. Surely, that Phoenix Tree Beastman is only drawing a big picture for her, yet she believes it."
All these things indicate that the Phoenix Tree Beastman actually has quite the means, thoroughly using Lin Xu.
Su Muyao pondered for a moment and said, "Do you have any ways to contact that lord?"
Lin Xu shook her head and said, "No, there’s only that Ancient Scroll, which can summon him for help at crucial times."
"Actually, it is precisely at critical times that he’ll team up to kill you."
Whenever Su Muyao thought of that Phoenix Tree Beastman, for some reason, her chest felt heavy.
She even had a feeling of being unable to breathe.
Su Muyao asked the system, "Are there no queens in the Insect Clan now?"
The system explained, "There haven’t been any for a long time; the Insect Clan’s system is now quite similar to the Beastmen, with each tribe handling their own matters, and without unique pheromones, appointing a queen would be useless. No one would comply, let alone act according to her commands."
Su Muyao thought luckily there wasn’t any queen; if there were, the threat from the Insect Clan would be significant.
Su Muyao and Yun Qinglan interrogated Lin Xu about many matters, understanding everything they needed to know, then decisively killed Lin Xu completely.
...
In a certain place within the Nine Nether Forbidden Land, someone was specially watching over Liu Mengyan’s Life Token.
Previously, when there was a mishap in the Fox Clan, when Liu Mengyan and Xia Min were killed, the Jade Token representing Liu Mengyan’s life shattered, but only cracked a seam, not completely turning to fragments.
But this time, because Lin Xu died completely, that Jade Token thoroughly turned to fragments.
Indicating the Seven-star Spider Beastman has completely died.
The Insect Clan can no longer use her for anything.
The Steward overseeing the Jade Token immediately reported upwards.
The Spider Clan Leader and elders convened a meeting to discuss this matter.
"Who would have thought the last split body also died? I wonder if that Su Muyao was killed."
"It seems she wasn’t killed; if she had been, the heavens and earth would have shown a change."
"Such a pity for the only Seven-star Spider Beastman; she originally had a chance to gain Inheritance Power, possess that rare pheromone, and become the queen of our Insect Clan."
"The Insect Clan hasn’t had queens for a long time; now, all major species in our Insect Clan are headed by male Beastmen. Our strongest ancestor was Ancestor Sang, a male Beastman, so it’s no pity."
"I actually think Liu Mengyan was too useless, given so many resources, still a Spider Beastman, as long as she seized Su Muyao’s Destined Beast Husband, many things could change."
"Those Beastmen who can become Beast Gods have brains, not easily fooled."
"Furthermore, no matter how Insect Clan Beastmen disguise themselves, they differ from those animal females’ pheromones; attracting those top male Beastmen isn’t easy."
The Spider Clan elders belittled Liu Mengyan’s usefulness but also had to admit Liu Mengyan indeed gained some time for the Insect Clan.
She also obstructed certain matters, delaying the emergence of the Beast God.
"At present, thanks to cooperation with the Demon Beast, we have the Demon Beast’s corpse Sacrificial Array, allowing us to send more clansmen out of the Nine Nether Forbidden Land."
"If the Demon Clan Beastmen send more Demon Beast corpses for sacrifice, the entire Nine Nether Forbidden Land’s barrier won’t last long. By then, all our clansmen can leave this dreadful place."
"Right, once this barrier is broken, we might even have the chance to return to our true ancestral land of the Insect Clan and reunite with our ancestors."
They got in touch with the Eldest Young Master Qiu Zhezhi of the Taixu Secret Realm, thus acquired insights into many matters of the Insect Clan.
Matched perfectly with the inheritance memories in their minds.
The Insect Clan didn’t come from nowhere; they were sent to this land by their clansmen.
