The Poisonous Insect Guardian was somewhat bewildered. "Touch the wrong melon? Where did that come from?"
Jiang Yue repeated to the Poisonous Insect Guardian what he had previously told Tong Feifei.
After hearing this, the Poisonous Insect Guardian was dumbfounded as well.
He had always been highly focused on controlling the spirit insects, and his strength was quite impressive. Even after discovering another Awakened with the same ability this time, he had never felt inferior to the other party. In fact, he had been quite confident that if they faced off directly, he would probably have the better odds of victory.
Yet he had never expected this guy to have so many tricks up his sleeve, even resorting to the "three burrows for a crafty rabbit" ploy. He had already found scapegoats to take his place.
The Poisonous Insect Guardian was utterly incapable of pulling off such tricks.
"Mr. Jiang, going by that, dealing with this fellow won't be easy at all."
The Poisonous Insect Guardian had originally thought that as long as they followed the trail and dragged out the mastermind behind everything, no matter how serious the problem was, it would resolve itself.
But now, it was clear that things weren't that simple.
Once you followed a trail to a fake melon, the real melon would certainly become alert. As long as the other party stayed put or became even more cautious, how could they possibly drag him out?
Jiang Yue remained calm. "All the information you've gathered wasn't useless. Even if the other party throws up all kinds of smokescreens and uses all sorts of crafty-rabbit tricks, these spirit insects are ultimately under his control. As long as we summarize their activity patterns, we'll still have a chance of locking down some important locations."
