Lethal Stunner: Kicking Off with Five Beast Husbands-Chapter 159: System, Are You Dead?

Insect Brain: [Memory modification successful]

Insect Brain: [Now in his mind, he believes he was secretly sold to you by Xiao Jinsheng’s seven Beast Husbands]

Bai Yan froze for a moment.

She was puzzled: [Why would he be sold to me?]

Insect Brain: [I just checked his memories. Although Xiao Jinsheng has feelings for him, she refrains from taking him to her quarters because of those seven Beast Husbands.]

Insect Brain: [Moreover, Chen Yunji is taciturn and always wears a cold expression, which annoys Xiao Jinsheng’s group of Beast Husbands.]

Insect Brain: [Then Mo Jiao came up with a plan—to exploit Xiao Jinsheng’s excuse of wanting to use the Terminal to establish a bond with Chen Yunji, lure him out, and under the guise of Xiao Jinsheng’s name, sell him off.]

Insect Brain: [That memory was something Chen Yunji overheard by chance, but this time around, I’ve made Mo Jiao’s plan come true.]

Insect Brain: [With this, not only will Chen Yunji follow your orders, but he’ll also harbor resentment toward Mo Jiao and the others—even toward Xiao Jinsheng herself.]

Bai Yan grew more delighted as she listened.

She praised: [Not bad this time; you’re finally acting like a system.]

She already had Ying Fei and Xi Qu—two Beast Husbands who were Eleven Stars.

Perhaps it was due to consuming the Star-breaking Pill, which improved their gifted physiques.

Ever since ascending to Eleven Stars, the abilities of Ying Fei and Xi Qu have been continuously ascending every day.

The rate of growth was terrifying. Bai Yan estimated that within less than half a month, the two would ascend to Twelve Stars.

Now, with the addition of Chen Yunji, a formidable Eleven Stars.

Even if Xiao Jinsheng had the Dark Soul Killing Weapon Yu Yunxiao, Bai Yan wouldn’t fear facing off against her again.

Once Chen Yunji fell into place, Bai Yan decided it was time to settle her grudge with Xiao Jinsheng.

Confidently, she beckoned toward Chen Yunji: [I’m your Female Master. Come here.]

Chen Yunji heard her voice, took a long stride forward, and walked toward where Bai Yan stood.

The two were less than half a meter apart.

Bai Yan chuckled: [It seems Jinsheng doesn’t care for you; she’s unwilling even to stand up to her Beast Husbands for you.]

[People in my household are temperate and friendly. Since you’ve been sold to me by Jinsheng, you should reside in my household from now on.]

[How about we bind ourselves through the Terminal right now?]

Chen Yunji remained silent upon hearing this.

Bai Yan frowned and asked the Insect Brain: [What’s wrong with him?]

Insect Brain dismissed it lightly: [He’s just not talkative, as you already know. Don’t bother listening to his words—just focus on his actions.]

Bai Yan thought that made sense.

As long as the bond through the Terminal could be established, she didn’t care about Chen Yunji’s reaction.

[Let’s add each other as friends on Star Map. I’ll send you a Terminal binding invitation.] Bai Yan smiled as she spoke.

Chen Yunji stared at his Star Map account. His ID was still named Shengli Jiujiu.

Elemental Power surged.

Through the veil that covered his eyes, Chen Yunji faintly glimpsed Bai Yan stretching her hand toward him in invitation.

He lowered his gaze, searching for something within the folds of his long sleeves, and replied in a chilly tone: [I have something for you.]

[You even prepared a gift?] Bai Yan exclaimed, surprised.

Just as she was about to praise the Insect Brain for becoming more capable, she saw Chen Yunji pull out a small bottle and spray its contents onto her.

The pungent powder entirely covered her.

Bai Yan angrily brushed off the white dust on her body, only to feel an agonizing pain piercing her head.

It was as though something was burrowing and thrashing about in her skull.

Her pained cries echoed across the skies.

Chen Yunji’s eyes glimmered coldly as he continued to spray the pungent mist from the small bottle over Bai Yan’s body without hesitation.

Caicai, who had been floating mid-air, landed and morphed into a two-meter-tall giant scallion, holding a vial in each hand as he began chasing Bai Yan while gleefully spraying her, cackling: [Hehehe, I finally got you, didn’t I?]

[That voice... is that Bai Yan?] Xue Ruiyang rose abruptly, shocked upon hearing the series of anguished screams.

Jin Ao had already dashed toward a car parked by the roadside but hadn’t seen Bai Yan’s figure.

Anxiously, he sprinted toward the source of the anguished cries.

Xiao Jinsheng, with her team, was closer to Chen Yunji’s position and was the first to arrive.

When Jin Ao and the others caught up, they saw Bai Yan convulsing in pain on the ground, while a two-meter-tall scallion sprayed pungent mist onto her with a dilapidated bottle.

[Courting death!] Jin Ao roared with fury, his eyes instantly turning red as he charged at the scallion.

Caicai dropped the bottle, transformed into a mosquito, and vanished in the blink of an eye.

After flying behind Chen Yunji, Caicai hesitantly reappeared: [Don’t get too worked up; we’re actually helping her.]

[Bai Yan always speaks well of you, and you treat her like this? You’re too much!] Xue Ruiyang angrily rebuked Xiao Jinsheng.

Kong Chengrui had already sprinted to Bai Yan’s side and was using his Wood Element Superpower to alleviate her pain.

But when his powers touched Bai Yan, her cries grew even louder.

She didn’t know what Chen Yunji had attacked her with.

Yet she realized this ambush was definitely due to the failure of the Insect Brain’s memory modification.

Furious, Bai Yan called out to the Insect Brain: [System! Antidote!]

Bai Yan: [My head’s about to explode—give me the antidote now!]

Bai Yan: [You’re a system; you can’t be incapable of handling this!]

Bai Yan: [This must be because your memory modification failed this time!]

Bai Yan: [System! Are you dead!?]

But no matter how Bai Yan shouted, she received no response from the Insect Brain.

[Almost there—just a bit more.] Caicai said nervously.

Xiao Jinsheng grabbed a vial and rushed forward, spraying the substance wildly onto Bai Yan’s face.

Bai Yan, whose face was already pale, now looked even ghostlier.

[I’ll kill you!] Kui Mao unleashed a murderous aura as he charged at Xiao Jinsheng.

Xiao Jinsheng activated her Domain Superpower, instantly swapping Kui Mao’s position with Li’s.

With Li standing at her side, Xiao Jinsheng lowered her gaze, staring in amazement at Bai Yan’s face.

A black, soft object, about five centimeters long and as thick as a chopstick, squirmed under her skin.

The Insect Brain, lured by the mist, temporarily lost control of its senses.

It rampaged through Bai Yan’s brain and finally crawled out of her nostril.

[Bai Yan!] Kong Chengrui, struggling to alleviate her pain with his Wood Element Superpower, froze in shock as he saw the black worm emerge from her body.

[Quickly, while the drug’s effect remains, grab it!] Caicai exclaimed, excited.

Holding an interstellar electric-thread isolation bottle, the two-meter-tall scallion strode forward, seized the Insect Brain, and stuffed it into the bottle.

[You little bug, gotcha now! Hehehe.] Caicai gleefully chuckled, staring at the struggling Insect Brain trapped inside the bottle.

Jin Ao and the others, who had just witnessed the worm crawling out of Bai Yan and were still reeling in disbelief, stood frozen.

Once the Insect Brain left her body, Bai Yan’s pain entirely subsided.

The excruciating agony had sharpened her senses and heightened her awareness.

She immediately realized that the disgusting black, squishy worm was the one that had emerged from her nasal cavity.

Her heart sank as she anxiously called out to the Insect Brain: [System, quickly scan my body—I think I’ve been invaded by the Insect Clan.]

Yet no matter how many times she called out to the system, the familiar mechanical voice was silent, distant, unresponsive.

Bai Yan’s heart went cold as she stared at Caicai holding the Insect Brain.
