Xing Tong smiled lightly. Yang Chen was still the same as before—upright and incorruptible, meticulous to the last detail, without a single word of idle chatter. The moment he arrived, he went straight to the point!
"Yang Chen, you know my purpose. I do not ask for much. I only want one piece of Origin Essence. As long as I obtain one piece of Origin Essence, I will give you the insect eggs on me. Of course, whether I can reach the Heavenly Mandate Realm will depend on your abilities," Xing Tong said with a calm smile.
Yang Chen shook his head. "Do you have any leads on how to enter the Heavenly Mandate Realm?"
"Leads? They lie within the Forbidden Spirit Dao Palace. When I returned to the insect race this time, I conducted a special investigation and found a few clues. We can search for those leads after you and I enter the Dao Palace. There is something else I need to remind you of," Xing Tong said.
Yang Chen asked in confusion, "What is it?"
"In a moment, I will return to our insect race. You must disguise yourself as one of the insects under my command. This is the safest method, and the one least likely to expose you," Xing Tong said.
Yang Chen pondered for a moment before saying, "Humans and the insect race are fundamentally different. Aren't you worried that I will be discovered?"
"Do not worry. I have my own methods." Xing Tong's lips curved upward, her confidence evident.
Looking at Xing Tong's confident face, Yang Chen nodded. "All right. Since you are confident, there is no problem with having me pose as one of the insects under your command. However, I have one more condition."
"What condition?" Xing Tong asked in surprise.
