I am an insect

Under the cover of night, Ji Ye quickly caught up with Lin Ya. The two went down the building. Ji Ye had extremely sharp hearing, and to his surprise, the man in sunglasses and the man and woman in white hats did not chase after them.

Those men and women in white hats might not dare to pursue him, but what about the man in sunglasses? Did he cut off his arm and injure his mental body?

If that's the case, it would be a pleasant surprise.

The man in sunglasses seemed to be no less powerful than Tian Cang. If they joined forces, Ji Ye would have no chance of winning. If the man in sunglasses was truly injured by Ji Ye's mental body, even if he couldn't be sure if he would die, at least he wouldn't have to be afraid for the time being.

"Ji Ye, did the teacher really kill Tian Cang?" Lin Ya asked as the two ran toward the source of the voices coming from afar.

If they escape to a populated area, these people should temporarily give up the chase, and then they will be safe.

"Of course it's fake, otherwise why would the eaglet have run away?"

Lin Ya knew that the possibility of Tian Cang being killed was very small, but she held onto a sliver of hope. Upon hearing Ji Ye's answer, she sighed inwardly.

She had always been grateful to her teacher and had unwavering faith in him, but tonight, when they encountered danger, her teacher suddenly abandoned them and ran away, which shocked Lin Ya and made it difficult for her to accept.

Ji Ye glanced at Lin Ya. He saved Lin Ya not because he liked her, but because he wanted to unite with her to gain greater power. Now was the best time.

"See that weasel?" Ji Ye asked as he walked toward the busy street.

Seeing the bright streetlights and the bustling traffic, Lin Ya's tense heart relaxed slightly, and she slowed down. She knew that the other party would not make a move under these circumstances.

"I see. You mean they found us through this weasel?"

"Yes, I wanted to kill this weasel just now, but I didn't find the opportunity. I wonder if there are any more powerful people besides Tian Cang and that man in sunglasses..." Ji Ye frowned and strode towards the side of the street as he spoke.

Lin Ya's expression changed, and she said, "What should we do then? Even if we escape now, they will catch up quickly."

Ji Ye nodded and said, "Yes, barring any unforeseen circumstances, they will definitely try everything to kill us tonight, and it won't be long before they catch up."

Lin Ya slightly opened her mouth, her expression changing drastically.

"We can't just sit here and wait to die. Whether we live or die, we have to give it a shot." Ji Ye stood on the side of the street and waved. Soon a taxi stopped in front of them.

"Get in the car, come to the back." Ji Ye got into the car first, then instructed Lin Ya.

Although Lin Ya didn't know why he wanted her to come to the back seat with him, she was too anxious to think about it and sat down in the back seat with Ji Ye.

"Where are you two headed?" The driver was a middle-aged man who seemed very enthusiastic. In his eyes, Ji Ye and Lin Ya were a young couple.

Ji Ye's clothes were splattered with some blood, but fortunately, the middle-aged man did not notice this small detail in the darkness.

"Let's go to Yinshan," Ji Ye instructed.

The middle-aged man paused for a moment before asking, "Are you going to Yinshan County?"

"Yes, we have an urgent matter and need to make a trip to Yinshan County."

Yinshan County is the county furthest from the city center in Ancheng, more than 100 kilometers away. It is also the most underdeveloped of the seven counties in Ancheng. Surrounded by mountains, it is economically backward and has steep mountain roads. There is still no expressway leading to Yinshan. The most famous mountain road in Ancheng is located in Yinshan.

Ji Ye chose Yinshan County as his escape destination precisely because of its backwardness and remoteness. In such a backward and remote place, the White Hats' influence might not be as strong as in the city.

Of course, he still knows nothing about this organization at present; all of this is just his personal speculation, and he doesn't know the facts.

The middle-aged man nodded, confirming that he was heading to Yinshan County, then stopped talking, started the car, and drove off.

Although the journey to Yinshan was long and involved many treacherous mountain roads, it was nothing for him, a driver with decades of experience.

Lin Ya sat down next to Ji Ye and whispered, "As long as that weasel is around, no matter where we go, they will find us sooner or later. Even if we escape to Yinshan County tonight, they may still be chasing us tomorrow."

She was afraid the driver in front would hear her, so when she said this, she almost put her mouth to Ji Ye's ear.

Ji Ye gave a soft "hmm" and whispered in her ear, "Yes, so we need to hurry. Whether we survive tonight depends on you."

Lin Ya was taken aback and asked, "What do you mean?"

The middle-aged man was driving while secretly keeping an eye on Ji Ye and Lin Ya in the back seat. In his eyes, their bodies and faces were pressed together, as if they were being intimate. He shook his head inwardly, thinking that young people these days are really bold. They can't wait to get in the car and don't even care that there are people in front of them.

Ji Ye whispered in Lin Ya's ear, "Don't you understand? If we want to survive, we must increase our strength. That Tian Cang and that man wearing sunglasses are at least at the sub-state level. I wonder if there are more sub-state level adult insects. Lin Ya, if you can't break through to the sub-state level tonight and they catch up with you, you'll die."

Lin Ya's face turned pale. She had just watched as Elephant and Cheng Gang died in front of her, and witnessed the terrifying skills of Tian Cang and the man in sunglasses. She still felt fear. She now understood that people who have died once are not no longer afraid of death; on the contrary, they become even more afraid of death.

"Breakthrough to sub-state tonight?"

She shook her head, knowing it was impossible.

Although she had reached the limit of the initial state, she could not break through the substate. She had heard her teacher say that it was not difficult for an adult insect to reach the initial state; basically, it was just a matter of time. However, breaking through the initial state was not so simple.

"Trust me, listen to me, you can definitely do it tonight." Ji Ye looked at her, his eyes gleaming with a powerful confidence.

Lin Ya suddenly understood that Ji Ye was referring to the mating of adult insects.

Ji Ye's performance tonight shocked her. For an adult insect to break through to the sub-body level in just a few days was simply unimaginable. The only explanation now was that Ji Ye hadn't lied to her before; he really had become so powerful through the union of a man and a woman.

"Don't hesitate any longer. If you want to live, let's stay together. I'll help you break through to the sub-body level, and I can also advance further. Even if Tian Cang and that man in sunglasses catch up with us, we won't have to be afraid of them. At least, surviving won't be difficult. I'll find a way to kill that weasel later."

Lin Ya bit her lip, her delicate eyebrows furrowed, and she remained silent, clearly engaged in a mental struggle.

The taxi was dimly lit, and Ji Ye looked at her in the dim light. The original owner of this body, Ye Xuan, was indeed very beautiful. At this moment, coupled with Lin Ya's frowning and silent expression, she was even more alluring. Ji Ye began to understand why He Longtao hadn't been able to get out of bed for almost two months after his marriage.

On one hand, it was naturally the demon that possessed Ye Xuan's body that bewitched him; on the other hand, Ye Xuan was indeed a stunning beauty.

"There's no time to hesitate. We have to make a decision immediately. They could appear at any moment." As Ji Ye spoke, he reached out and suddenly wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her close.
