Zhan Shen: I am the spokesperson for the Great Love Immortal

As Fang Si recorded the insect's information, Lin Qiye returned the Little Moon Insect to Fang Si.

"Old Fang, do you want to come with me from now on?"

In the time to come, Lin Qiye had two more things to do: first, to send Wuquan into the Eastern Emperor Bell, and second, to send Jialan to Fengdu City.

After doing all this, Lin Qiye planned to travel the world and make some preparations for future generations.

Fang Si shook his head at Lin Qiye's invitation.

"I have some things to do, so I won't go wandering around with you."

Lin Qiye nodded, though he was a little disappointed, but he didn't say anything.

He got up, pushed open the door to the study, looked up at the bright moon in the night sky, and after a moment of silence, said to Fang Si.

"Old Fang, want to grab a drink? Consider it a send-off for me."

Fang Si nodded and walked out with Lin Qiye.

…………

Three days later, in front of a crowd, Lin Qiye sent Wuquan into the Eastern Emperor Bell.

"Brother Qiye, we'll meet again in two thousand years."

Lin Qiye nodded, a hint of guilt flashing across his face.

No matter what, Wu Quan was dragged into this by him, and now, all he can do is let Wu Quan endure two thousand years of time to return to the future. Lin Qiye naturally feels guilty.

Seeing Lin Qiye's complicated expression, Wu Quan guessed what Lin Qiye was thinking.

He smiled at Lin Qiye one last time and said.

"Brother Qiye, let's begin. I don't blame you."

Lin Qiye fell silent and said nothing more.

…………

Seven days after Wu Quan entered the Eastern Emperor Bell, he used Soul Wood, which could conceal all auras, to create a coffin that could block all prying eyes, and personally sent Jia Lan into Fengdu.

In fact, Lin Qiye did not want Jialan to sleep for two thousand years. After all, if he had a choice, he would naturally want to spend this time with Jialan.

However, things in this world are rarely perfect in every way.

If he insists that Jialan stay with him, then as long as the Immortal Pill remains on Jialan, the Kel'Thuzad's tracking will remain locked onto her.

Therefore, if this goes on for too long, it will inevitably involve Lin Qiye, who is by his side, causing his plan to fail.

This time, only Fang Si was among the spectators.

In the Heavenly Palace of Naifanwu City at dawn, Lin Qiye held Jialan's hand tightly and sat silently beside her without saying a word.

Upon seeing this, Fang Si turned his head to the side, no longer looking at the scene of their parting.

Actually, he didn't want to come, but in the end, Lin Qiye dragged him along.

According to Lin Qiye, since this was an agreement between him and Jialan, there naturally needed to be a fair witness.

Therefore, naturally there would be no one more suitable than Fang Si.

At this moment, after Lin Qiye and Jialan talked for a while, Lin Qiye stood up and personally closed the coffin lid for her.

After burying Jialan, Lin Qiye turned and walked to Fang Si's side.

"Let's go, Lao Fang, it's time for us to leave."

Upon hearing Lin Qiye's words, Fang Si glanced at the empty coffin next to Jialan's coffin.

"Aren't you going to stay here with her?"

Although Lin Qiye never explicitly said it, Fang Si knew that the main reason he let Jialan lie in Fengdu was because there were creatures of the same element that were constantly hunting her down.

In the most recent attack, which was about seven or eight days before their return, even the Gate Key intervened at some point.

Upon hearing Fang Si's words, Lin Qiye remained silent for a moment, then glanced at the coffin behind him.

After a moment, Lin Qiye shook his head.

"No, I have some things to do and can't stay here for long."

However, I come back to check on things every now and then.

After a pause, Lin Qiye glanced at Jialan again.

"I'll have time. Once I've sorted everything out, I'll come back to be with her."

Fang Si nodded and said nothing more.

After leaving Fengdu, the two of them stopped in their tracks simultaneously.

They were both silent for a moment, then turned to look at each other.

Looking at Lin Qiye's face, Fang Si smiled.

"Alright, since we're going to have to part ways eventually, let's stop here."

Lin Qiye remained silent for a moment, then nodded and said.

"Alright, see you another time."

"Ah."

After saying goodbye, the two parted ways at the entrance of Fengdu.

After Lin Qiye left, Fang Si naturally returned to the Zhenxie Division.

Unlike Lin Qiye, who travels the world without needing any resources and wanders like a wild animal, Fang Si cannot become stronger without resources.

The best place to raise insects in the early stages was naturally the Zhenxie Division.

Although Huo Qubing is nominally in charge of the Zhenxie Division, all the elders of the division know that Huo Qubing has been dead for a long time.

Not long after Lin Qiye left with Jialan, Huo Qubing's lifespan was about to end, and he died on the way back to Chang'an.

The Huo Qubing of today is merely an imposter, Gongyang Wan, who has devoured Huo Qubing's corpse.

After returning to the Zhenxie Division, Fang Si spent most of his time in the quiet room and prison.

He even argued with Gongyang Wan because he had taken too many death row inmates.

Unfortunately, both of their forbidden realms require "cannibalism," so disagreements are inevitable due to conflicting interests.

Of course, although there was conflict, they did not end up fighting because Li Gan and Yan Zhong acted as peacemakers and added a new business to the Zhenxie Division: imprisoning mysterious creatures and collecting their corpses.

Thus, the distribution of resources within the Evil Suppression Division became a 50/50 split between the death row inmate Fang Si and Gongyang Wan, while the mysterious creatures all went to Fang Si.

In the days that followed, Fang Si devoted himself to the refining and research of insects.

……

In the second year of Yuanding, Huo Qubing officially passed away, and the Zhenxie Division was truly taken over by Gongyang Wan. In the same year, Gongyang Wan officially broke through to the seventh step of the realm, and died at the same level as Huo Qubing.

In the same year, Fang Si, in order to prank Gongyang Wan, developed the Directional Insect and added his own commentary.

"For people, direction is the only standard for determining their own stance."

At the end of the second year of Yuanding, the second-generation chief official, Gongyang Wan, fought against the offering master and died. After three moves, he was hung on the gate tower of the offering master's pavilion.

……

In the third year of Yuanding, under the leadership of the second chief, the Zhenxie Division grew from less than a hundred people to more than a hundred people, and established three major departments: Heaven, Earth, and Humanity, each with different responsibilities.

At the end of the third year of Yuanding, the second chief official, in an attempt to change the resource allocation problem, led hundreds of soldiers to challenge the offerings, but was utterly defeated and their remains were hung on the gate tower.

In the same year, Fang Si developed the Greedy Insect and wrote comments on it in a book.

"Greed is indispensable to people; it can give them the motivation to strive for progress, but it can also lead them to the abyss."

At the end of the second year of the Tianhan era, Gongyang Zhuo, who had broken through to the Penglai Immortal Island, became a chief god. After returning to Chang'an, Fang Si was forced to leave the Zhenxie Division.

Fang Si packed his belongings and left the Zhenxie Division without saying a word.

That year, because Gongyang Zhuo became the chief god, he had to leave the Zhenxie Division and give up the buffet.

After Fang Si walked ten miles out of the Zhenxie Division, he looked back at Chang'an City.

In fact, rather than saying he was forced out by Gongyang Wan and others, it would be more accurate to say that he chose to leave on his own.

Although the resources within the Evil Suppression Division are abundant, to be honest, they are of a very low quality.

Resources at the Klein level are scarce, let alone those at the seventh level.

Therefore, after much deliberation, Fang Si decided to replace quality with quantity.

In this era, foreign barbarians were as numerous as hairs on a cow, which provided him with the best nourishment for growth.

Chapter 571 Foreign Barbarians

On his journey abroad, Fang Si encountered many interesting things.

While some places outside the Han Dynasty had already formed kingdoms, most were still ordinary barbarian tribes.

As Fang Si traveled, the most common thing he saw was the sacrificial rites of barbarian tribes.

There was nothing they could do; these uncivilized savages wanted to tie him up and sacrifice him to their ancestors.

In response, Fang Si had no choice but to transform them into insects and send them to meet his ancestors.

The setting sun, like blood, casts a unique crimson glow upon the world.

In a barbarian tribe located in the eastern part of the Han Dynasty, after Fang Si killed another barbarian, the last living person in the entire tribe finally died.

As the Refining Insect Forbidden Ruins was activated, a pure white aura with a hint of earthy yellow was extracted from the barbarian's body by Fang Si.

Looking at the pure white aura in his hand, he slowly turned his wrist and began his first refining process.

A moment later, as the insects exploded, Fang Si frowned and sighed.

"That's the thirty-ninth one."

Along the way, Fang Si had killed 3,900 people, but even after killing so many, he had only managed to gather 39 sets of materials for refining insects.

"The difficulty of training the Longevity Insect is actually more challenging than I expected. It seems to be due to the limitations imposed by the laws of the world..."

Looking at the exploding Gu worm in his hand, Fang Si pondered to himself.

Since leaving the Evil Suppression Division, he has stopped refining insects to enhance his strength, because the materials are very hard to find.

Most of the materials he could find were too inferior to train powerful insects, and even the best insect materials were too difficult to defeat.

Therefore, he turned his attention to an insect that was relatively easy to obtain.

In other words, it is a long-lived insect that originated from humans.

In this world, there have never been any extraordinary insects that humans could control before. Therefore, no matter what kind of insect it is, it is actually necessary for Fang Si to research and refine it himself.

Although the insect refining process often ended in failure, Fang Si didn't care about that.

Even though his current thoughts have disappeared, his essence has become a refining insect.

Therefore, in theory, there is no upper limit to the Refining Insect Forbidden Ruins; the only limit is the amount of materials.

After crushing the insect fragments from the explosion into dust, Fang Si turned and walked out of the now-ruined barbarian house into the barbarian tribe.

If 3,900 people aren't enough, then 39,000 will do.

Having spent several years wandering in this dangerous world, Fang Si had long since shed his former indecisiveness.

Right now, all he wants to do is become stronger.

Gradually, Fang Si stopped walking and stood in the blood-soaked village, slowly raising his head to look at the setting sun in the sky.

"The more I understand this world, the more I realize how insignificant I am. In this world full of gods, let alone me, even Lin Qiye and Huo Qubing are no different."

They're all just weaklings.

Fang Si sighed, turned his gaze away from the setting sun, and continued walking into the distance.

He crafted the Longevity Insect not only because the materials for it were easy to obtain, but also for another crucial reason: he needed time.

Without the Longevity Gu, judging from the lifespan of a seventh-realm human, it would be at most a hundred years.

Although a hundred years may seem like a long time, it is still far from enough for Fang Si.

He is now a powerful figure at the seventh level, and to be a little narcissistic, he could be considered to be at the pinnacle of human potential.
