True Venerable Xiaoyou said she was willing to accept it, but from the look of her, she was still somewhat uncomfortable.
Still, as a female cultivator facing ugly Insects, that kind of reaction was hardly strange.
A Ganxiu like Han Li did not care. He even asked with some curiosity, "This senior... didn't it go to the Empire with you?"
"It's been wandering all over the Empire," Qu Jianlei answered casually. "Aside from the Maiden Star Region, I allowed it to go wherever it wanted."
"There is indeed something wrong with the Maiden Star Region," Spider actually offered a response. "Even if a Grand Lord enters, there's a possibility of falling."
"Really?" Xiwu was stunned when she heard that. Although she was also a female cultivator, she had at least dealt with Spider more than once and had adapted.
Spider did not react at all, treating it as if it had not heard.
Qu Jianlei's face darkened. "I told you not to go, and you were still that curious!"
"Hey, hey, there are outsiders here," Spider said, somewhat unable to keep its composure. "Don't I need face?"
"Huh?" Qu Jianlei had originally only said it offhandedly, but when he heard that, he was genuinely shocked. "Who taught you that?"
Spider used to stutter when speaking, but that was a minor thing. Sometimes, it expressed itself quite smoothly too.
But the concept of "face" was truly rare among Alien Races. Forget Alien Races—even among the Human Race, it might not be common.
Even on Blue Star, the vast majority of the Human Race did not have this concept.
Those so-called people who "fear power but do not cherish virtue" did not understand face. At most, they emphasized "dignity" or "the value of life."
Those who could pay attention to "the dignity
