Lethal Stunner: Kicking Off with Five Beast Husbands-Chapter 173: A Bug Egg Seed in the Heart Dala Dala (Extra - for Monthly Pass)

Chapter 173: Chapter 173: A Bug Egg Seed in the Heart Dala Dala (Extra Chapter for Monthly Pass)

Insect Brain: [As systems, naturally all possess the skill to modify memories]

Insect Brain sighed: [It seems Xiao Jinsheng doesn’t just want to take revenge on you; she wants to torment you]

Insect Brain: [She will double down and return all the methods you and System 1.0 used on her back to you]

Insect Brain: [Ying Fei’s memory alteration is just the beginning of her revenge]

Bai Yan became more infuriated as she listened, her anger skyrocketing.

But now that she had moved, going to confront Xiao Jinsheng wasn’t as easy as it had been when they were neighbors.

"Ying Fei, calm down." Bai Yan looked at Ying Fei with a wounded expression, softening her tone to coax him: "I know systems can alter people’s memories. Did you meet Xiao Jinsheng and that fool?"

"Was it that fool who altered your memories, making you forget me, so you’re being so hostile to me now?"

"Ying Fei, wake up. Snap out of it."

"It’s you and me who are husband and wife."

Bai Yan was crying. Ying Fei looked at her, only feeling like his past self, who had always protected her, was nothing but a clown.

"There’s no need to say so much, let’s divorce." Ying Fei’s face turned emotionless.

"No... I can’t accept it." Bai Yan was heartbroken to the point of near fainting: "I can’t possibly divorce you."

"No divorce, huh?" Ying Fei sneered coldly.

He stood up, his gaze sweeping toward Jin Ao and the others, who were shielding Bai Yan.

"Well, if there’s no divorce, then let’s all die together."

With that, Ying Fei shoved past Qing Zelin, who stood at the door, and entered the house on his own.

Originally, he intended to tell Xue Ruiyang and the others everything he had experienced with the Terminal.

He wanted them to see Bai Yan’s true face clearly.

To recognize how the Female Master they had been protecting and loving had treated them.

But...

"A bunch of fools." Ying Fei locked the door and collapsed onto his bed.

It didn’t matter; none of them were going to survive, anyway.

If everyone was going to die, then they might as well die together.

Xi Qu had already been devoured by the Terminal. frёeωebɳovel.com

The Star Stone belonging to Xi Qu had been violently extracted from his abdomen right in front of Ying Fei’s eyes.

Ying Fei couldn’t even fathom why the Terminal had ultimately decided to let him go.

Was the Terminal not afraid that he might expose its secret?

But then he thought about how, once Jin Ao and the others reached Twelve Stars, they would essentially be served up as meals for Bai Yan to present to the Terminal.

A sneer appeared on Ying Fei’s face.

Die.

If they were going to die, then everyone should die together.

"Hmph..." A delighted chuckle echoed across Cloud Island.

The Terminal had been closely monitoring the location of the Insect Brain. When it saw the escalating emotions in this household, it grew even more excited.

"Distrust, disappointment, the collapse of trust..."

"Turns out this world offers more than just despair... so many other delicious flavors..."

At that moment, the Terminal realized how deeply mistaken it had been.

It had been wrong from the very beginning.

Merely plunging the people of Mist Continent into despair was far from satisfying its increasingly sophisticated palate.

It thought it needed to add a few more flavors to its menu.

Ying Fei loathed himself, hiding away in his room and refusing to face anyone.

Bai Yan could only seek out the Insect Brain.

Bai Yan: [Where is Xi Qu? Did Xiao Jinsheng kill Xi Qu?]

Insect Brain: [No, Xi Qu’s whereabouts are unknown]

The Insect Brain glanced at Xi Qu, who had been discarded like trash into the ruins to await death without his Star Stone, and then coldly shifted its gaze away: [In Ying Fei’s altered memories, I didn’t see Xi Qu]

Bai Yan frowned: [What do you mean? Xi Qu and Ying Fei disappeared on the same day]

Insect Brain: [Yes, they vanished on the same day, but in Ying Fei’s memory, they parted ways near Moon City]

Insect Brain: [Ying Fei went to Moon City, initially planning to use the Mutant Beasts to kill Xiao Jinsheng]

Insect Brain: [As for Xi Qu, his whereabouts are unknown]

Insect Brain: [As for the subsequent events, you already know. Ying Fei’s attempt at revenge failed. Instead, Xiao Jinsheng and that fool altered his memory and sent him back to aggravate you]

Bai Yan frowned: [You also have the ability to alter memories. Can you change Ying Fei’s memories back right now?]

Bai Yan: [One more thing, how did Xiao Jinsheng know that the Star-breaking Pill I originally prepared for Jin Ao on the ship was ultimately given to Ying Fei?]

Insect Brain, speechless: [She has a system, doesn’t she? Didn’t you lose control over her back in May? Her system must have bound to her back then, and remained hidden, waiting for you and your System 1.0 to reveal yourselves]

Insect Brain: [It’s very likely that your conversations with System 1.0 and the matter of the Star-breaking Pill for Xi Qu and Ying Fei were being monitored by Xiao Jinsheng and that fool]

Insect Brain: [But don’t worry; she can’t monitor anymore. That fool and I are at the same Level, so neither of us can overpower the other]

Insect Brain: [As for altering Ying Fei’s memory back, it’s not possible. Ying Fei’s memory was altered twice by Xiao Jinsheng’s fool. I just used one skill to check Ying Fei’s memory, and now everything is in cooldown mode. To fully restore Ying Fei’s memory would take at least twenty days]

Bai Yan, hearing that even the Insect Brain couldn’t do anything, grew increasingly irritable.

She was worried that Ying Fei might mention the Star-breaking Pill again and undermine the trust between herself and Jin Ao and the others.

At least, considering Ying Fei’s current attitude toward her, Bai Yan felt somewhat fearful.

She could sense that, because of the Star-breaking Pill incident—a substance that consumed one’s own life force to enhance power—Ying Fei had been deceived into consuming it without knowing.

Given Ying Fei’s temperament, their emotional fallout might lead him to completely spiral out of control or go down with her in mutual destruction.

Thinking of this, Bai Yan’s heart grew colder and more determined.

She wouldn’t permit such a potential threat to jeopardize her.

Similarly, she wouldn’t accept betrayal from anyone!

Bai Yan: [I don’t trust Ying Fei. Can you control him, prevent him from speaking carelessly?]

Bai Yan: [If you can’t, I... I’ll have no choice but to]

Insect Brain, curious: [You have no choice but to what?]

Bai Yan’s voice trembled, choking back tears: [I don’t want to do it, but Ying Fei has already turned against me. If I let him stay, he’ll ruin my relationship with Jin Ao and the others]

Bai Yan: [I don’t want Jin Ao and the others to get hurt]

Insect Brain sneered: [I thought you had a clever idea, but it turns out you just want to kill him]

Insect Brain: [Indeed, only the dead can keep secrets]

Insect Brain: [However, I have something better that can make Ying Fei obediently follow your orders]

Bai Yan, surprised and delighted: [What is it? Is it a tool?]

Soon, a tiny red insect egg, no larger than a sesame seed, was transmitted to Bai Yan.

Insect Brain: [This is a parasite. You can secretly mix it into Ying Fei’s food for him to ingest]

The Insect Brain continued, sending over a box of candies, each one roughly the size of a soybean.

Insect Brain: [This is Insect Control Candy. Whoever eats this candy can control those who’ve ingested the parasite]

Bai Yan frowned in disgust: [Why do your tools always involve bugs now? It’s so gross]

Upon hearing this, the Insect Brain suppressed its inner rage.

Insect Brain: [If it works, it’s a good tool. Why does it matter if it’s human or insect?]

Insect Brain: [If you don’t want it, then forget it. Anyway, Ying Fei’s memory has been modified by Xiao Jinsheng, and he deeply resents you now]

Insect Brain: [Remember how Mo Jiao, Xiao Jinsheng’s Beast Husband, wanted to kill her, even if it meant mutual destruction?]

Insect Brain: [If you’re not afraid of Ying Fei killing you someday, then feel free not to use it]

Insect Brain: [Your spiritual power has already dropped to Six Stars. If you kill Ying Fei now, you’ll definitely fall to Five Stars. It’s your choice]

The Insect Brain grew increasingly irritated: [Fine, I’ll leave it to you]

Bai Yan was also annoyed: [Why are you so worked up? If it weren’t for your skill cooldown, would I need to go through all this trouble? I’d just modify his memory directly and be done with it]

Despite her words, Bai Yan still accepted the Insect Control Candy and parasite egg.

That day, the once-vicious and terrifying neighbors were quite noisy at home.

In Bai Yan’s household, the commotion stemmed from the absence of several people.

Once a full family with eight Beast Husbands—one dead, one missing, and one pending divorce—it was now down to just five silent individuals.
