Holding the somewhat cold spirit insect flute in his hand, Mu Chen’s eyes flickered with a contemplative look. Without hesitation, he placed the flute to his lips, and the spiritual energy within his body surged, flowing into the spirit insect flute along with his breath.

Mu Chen was not a Spirit Insect Master, so he naturally couldn’t skillfully activate the spirit insect flute. However, he knew the most basic way to use it. If it were a skilled Spirit Insect Master, they could use the spirit insect flute to summon the spirit insects they desired at will. But Mu Chen couldn’t do that. Fortunately, in the Black Abyss, the largest group was the Spirit Devouring Bees. He thought that as long as he blew the spirit insect flute here, it should be possible to summon them.

Whoo!

As Mu Chen’s thoughts raced, the spirit insect flute emitted a faint glow, and the inscriptions on it began to wriggle. A peculiar sound wave emerged from the spirit insect flute and spread out far and wide.

This sound wave was not loud; it was easy to ignore if one wasn’t paying close attention. But Mu Chen knew that the spirit insects were extremely sensitive to this sound wave.

Mu Chen continuously infused spiritual energy into the spirit insect flute, maintaining the spread of the sound wave. He also occasionally glanced at the depths of the Black Abyss, where the spiritual energy fluctuations were becoming increasingly violent. It seemed that his father and Uncle Zhou were already engaged in battle with the three high-level spirit beasts.

It must be done quickly!

A hint of anxiety flashed in Mu Chen’s eyes. Those three high-level spirit beasts were not to be underestimated. The longer his father and Uncle Zhou were entangled with them, the more they would be drained. Once that exhaustion reached a certain level, the Liu Domain forces lurking in the shadows would likely make their move.

And that was a scenario Mu Chen did not want to see.

The flute’s melody spread out, but there was still no significant movement from afar. This made Mu Chen’s palms involuntarily sweat. Could it be that his method wouldn’t work?

Although he had spoken confidently in front of Mu Feng and the others, it was just to reassure them. Mu Chen understood the struggle in Mu Feng’s heart: he didn’t want to retreat and let the Liu Domain obtain the Netherworld Sparrow, but he also didn’t want to be ambushed by the Liu Domain. Therefore, he could only come up with this plan to try to break the extremely unfavorable situation they were in.

But if he couldn’t even summon the Spirit Devouring Bees, then his so-called strategy would fall apart.

“Brothers, give me a break!” Mu Chen muttered in his heart.

Time quickly passed as Mu Chen waited anxiously. In the blink of an eye, nearly ten minutes had gone by, and the spiritual energy fluctuations in the valley became increasingly violent, even causing the ground to tremble. Clearly, the battle there was becoming more intense.

He didn’t have much time left!

Mu Chen gritted his teeth, just about to retreat, when his gaze, fixed on the distance, suddenly sharpened. A look of wild joy quickly spread across his face.

“They’re coming!”

In the distance, a black cloud rapidly spread across the sky, and the unique buzzing sound could be heard from afar.

The Spirit Devouring Bees had finally been summoned!

Mu Chen suppressed his joy, put away the spirit insect flute, and quickly darted into the valley.

...

Boom!

In the valley, violent spiritual energy surged, shaking the surrounding cliffs and causing boulders to roll down.

Duan Wei and the others watched the two battle zones in the valley with tense expressions. The two humans and three beasts were fiercely colliding, and the spiritual energy light waves swept out, turning the valley’s rocks into powder.

“Damn it!”

Duan Wei, seeing the stalemate, glanced at a certain spot on the cliff, where cold eyes were smiling down. Clearly, this situation was exactly what the Liu Domain wanted.

“Hasn’t the Young Master returned yet?” someone asked, unable to hide their anxiety.

Duan Wei shook his head with a bitter smile. He wasn’t quite sure what Mu Chen was up to, but from his previous actions, it seemed he had some plan. The question was whether his plan could break the current deadlock.

“Let’s wait a bit longer. If the Liu Domain dares to make a move, we won’t let them off easily!” Duan Wei gritted his teeth.

The others nodded, their eyes flashing with a fierce light.

As they prepared, a sound came from behind, and they quickly turned to see Mu Chen rapidly approaching.

“Young Master!” Duan Wei and the others were immediately delighted.

“Father, Uncle Zhou, retreat!” Mu Chen shouted, looking at the two battle zones.

Mu Feng and Zhou Ye, who had been waiting for Mu Chen’s signal, immediately shot back, but the three high-level spirit beasts pursued relentlessly.

Mu Chen, watching the three high-level spirit beasts in hot pursuit, clenched his hand, and a bottle appeared. He opened the bottle, and a peculiar fragrance immediately spread.

Bang.

Mu Chen slapped the bottle, and some black liquid flew out. He clapped his hands, and the spiritual energy surged like a gale, scattering the black liquid into black mist, which enveloped the three high-level spirit beasts.

The black mist clung to the bodies of the three high-level spirit beasts, but they showed no reaction, ignoring Mu Chen, whom they saw as a mere ant, and continued to chase Mu Feng and Zhou Ye.

Duan Wei and the others, seeing Mu Chen’s strange behavior, were puzzled.

“Get into that crevice!” Mu Chen pointed to a crack in the mountain and urgently shouted.

Duan Wei and the others exchanged glances but then gritted their teeth and nodded, rushing into the crevice. Mu Chen immediately followed, while Mu Feng and Zhou Ye, at the rear, unleashed their powerful spiritual energy, forcing the three high-level spirit beasts to retreat.

“What are they doing?”

The Liu Domain forces, watching the Mu Domain group retreat into the mountain crevice, were stunned. Wasn’t this cutting off all their escape routes? How had these guys become so stupid?

Liu Qingtian also frowned. Given Mu Feng’s shrewdness, how could he do something so foolish?

“Brother?” Liu Ming asked in a low voice, clearly confused by the situation.

Liu Qingtian’s eyes narrowed, and the next moment, his expression suddenly changed. He looked up at the valley entrance, where the buzzing sound had suddenly become louder.

“Those are... Spirit Devouring Bees?”

Liu Ming and the others also noticed and quickly looked up. They saw a black cloud covering the sky, the buzzing sound echoing through the valley.

“Roar!”

The three high-level spirit beasts in the valley also sensed the approach of the Spirit Devouring Bees and began to growl uneasily. Facing such a terrifying number of Spirit Devouring Bees, even they, as high-level spirit beasts, were in extreme danger.

The black cloud finally surged into the valley like a black flood, without any pause. It swept directly toward the three high-level spirit beasts, shocking both Mu Feng and Liu Qingtian’s groups.

Roar!

Enveloped by the black cloud, the three high-level spirit beasts struggled wildly, their violent spiritual energy bursting out, killing thousands of Spirit Devouring Bees. But they were quickly overwhelmed by even more bees.

Mu Feng and the others, watching the increasingly weak roars under the black cloud, felt their scalps tingle. They slowly turned their heads to look at the handsome young man behind them, who was smiling brightly, and their faces stiffened.

Could this be Mu Chen’s plan?

But how could he attract the Spirit Devouring Bees and make them attack only the three high-level spirit beasts?

This was too incredible!
