Chapter 144: Selecting Insects
Noticing the whip attacking from behind, Bai Qianchou's expression changed. At this time, he didn't dare to attack Long Dan anymore, dodged in a panic, and dodged this fatal whip sideways.
The whip brushed past his body and drew heavily on the ground, drawing a huge gully on the stone slab of the ground. If this whip was drawn on a person, what would happen?
Damn it, how could he appear here? Bai Qianchou cursed in his heart, his expression uncertain.
Originally, it was a foolproof matter. His two sons died, and it was reasonable for him to attack in anger out of love for his son, and others wouldn't say anything after seeing it, but he didn't expect a change to occur.
Long Qian is here today, and it will be difficult for him to succeed again.
"It was your Long Clan who killed my son first. Killing for life and paying debts is justified. One life for one life, and this is two lives. What's wrong with me killing him to avenge my son today? Even if I make trouble to the City Lord, I am justified."
Bai Qianchou took the lead, his eyes red, and shouted angrily, unable to contain his anger. People who didn't know the truth might really think that he was grief-stricken because of losing his relatives.
"Bah!" Long Qian scolded angrily: "You motherfucker have more than a thousand sons? Does dying two count as a matter?"
"Even if a hundred die, I'm afraid you won't even frown, and you're still pretending here."
"I think it's a bit less for you to die only two sons, not atmospheric enough. Do you want me to help you slaughter a few more?"
Hearing this, Long Xuan's mouth twitched non-stop. Good guy, more than a thousand sons, really or fake? This guy is a stud? So able to give birth.
Isn't this a bit exaggerated?
Long Xuan couldn't help but ask Long Ruoxue on the side: "Does he really have so many sons? Not adopted?"
"More than a thousand is still known. I don't know
"More than a thousand is just what is known; who knows how many more there are that are unknown. He cultivates a dual cultivation technique; as long as he dual cultivates with women, his progress speed is extremely fast. Many women were forced by him, and he wouldn't even care about the children born."
"So don't say he doesn't feel heartache for the death of two sons; even if a thousand sons died, he wouldn't even frown."
Long Ruoxue showed a look of disgust.
Long Qian's mouth was a bit poisonous. Bai Qianchou didn't feel much heartache for his son's death, but he was infuriated by these few sentences.
"Looking for death! A life for a life is only right; whoever blocks me today dies. Let's see who dares to stop me!"
The main clan's genius lost two matches to the branch clan's genius. This had to be said to be a very shameful thing, making her feel a bit blushing.
"That depends on whether the whip in my hand agrees." Long Qian sneered and also greeted him, and the two soon fought together.
The commotion caused by the battle of Spirit Sea stage Gu cultivators was too great. The aftermath shook the nearest few Bai Clan Gu cultivators until they vomited blood. The crowd's expressions changed drastically, and they hurriedly retreated in panic.
Both were of the same realm, and their strength was only on par; it was difficult to distinguish the winner for a while, and they fought inextricably.
Just as the two sides were in a stalemate, Long Lie, who had been watching the show, tilted his head and took a sip of wine, then laughed loudly and sneakily attacked Bai Qianchou from behind, disregarding martial virtue.
Bai Qianchou's expression changed; he didn't expect that there was still a Spirit Sea stage Long Clan Gu cultivator hidden in the crowd, and he could only deal with it in a rush.
At this time, the scene had formed a two-on-one situation. Bai Qianchou's pressure doubled for a while; how could he be an opponent? Not long after, he was suppressed and in constant danger.
It was certainly impossible to kill Bai Qianchou on the street. Long Qian was still rational and did not attack vital points. After suppressing Bai Qianchou, he began to slap him wildly.
While slapping, he laughed wildly, slapping with such comfort. The sound of loud slaps echoed throughout the street, and soon Bai Qianchou's face was slapped red.
Bai Qianchou was so angry he was about to faint. As a fifth elder of the Bai Clan, a powerhouse at the Spirit Sea Peak, and a person of high position and power, he was now being slapped in public. This was simply rubbing his dignity on the ground. His old face was completely lost today, and he would surely become the laughingstock of the whole city in the future. He was completely driven mad by anger.
The crowd was stunned.
Hitting people without hitting the face, Long Qian's move was truly too ruthless. It seemed he didn't use heavy hands, and even if he fought on the street, he wouldn't receive too much punishment, but the damage he caused to his opponent was simply worse than death.
"All of you stop!"
Just at this moment, a loud shout came from the sky: "As two elders, fighting on the street, what kind of decorum is this?"
After hearing this voice, the three finally stopped.
Bai Qianchou hurriedly shouted: "Please, City Lord, make the decision for me! The Long Clan is bullying people too much, killing my son first, and then slapping my face to humiliate me. This is not slapping my face; this is slapping the face of my Bai Clan!"
"Enough! All of you come to the City Lord's Mansion and call your family head too!"
The majestic voice in the air finally disappeared.
The onlookers knew there was no more excitement to watch, so they finally dispersed. However, the fifth elder of the Bai Clan being held down and slapped on the street was a hot enough topic to become dinner table conversation. They prepared to brag to their relatives and friends after returning.
"Ruoxue, take them back to the clan as soon as possible, and by the way, pick a top-quality Silver Moon Mantis for Long Xuan. It's probably not very safe outside; don't leave the clan until the arena tournament after you go back."
The Ten Extremes Body was known as invincible at the same level, and the arena competition with the Bai Clan's geniuses was same level against same level, so that match was a sure win, and another one-twelfth of the mine vein would be steadily obtained.
It was heard that in the arena competition with the Feng Clan, he didn't even release his Gu worm and defeated his opponent off the arena in just a few moves. His combat power was simply terrifying.
Therefore, this Ten Extremes Body genius was also a target he must obtain; he must be taken away.
Long Wanli and the group of clan elders on both sides smiled even more bitterly. Long Wanli said helplessly, "You don't know, his contribution points are simply too many, and he no longer cares about the small contribution point rewards of the clan competition."
"So he doesn't come to every clan competition, under the pretext of leaving opportunities for young people and wanting to display a spirit of humility, so he simply doesn't come to every clan competition."
Hearing this, Long Qian and the two geniuses behind him twitched the corners of their mouths non-stop again, completely losing their expression management. Were the personalities of the geniuses of this Extreme West Long Clan all so peculiar?
Such a big matter as the clan competition, and they actually said they wouldn't come, so they didn't come. They were truly shocked.
"Then what about Long Chao? His personality shouldn't be very peculiar, right?" Long Qian could no longer control himself and hurriedly asked about another genius he was very satisfied with.
Long Chao's Evil Dragon Emperor Eye had awakened the Soul Seed ability, and the Soul Seed ability was simply too terrifying. Looking at the whole world, it was one of the top-level illusions. As long as this illusion was used well, he could basically be invincible at the same level, and they would steadily obtain another one-twelfth of the mine vein's ownership.
Therefore, he must also take this person away. Long Chao was his third target he must obtain, followed by Long Qilin.
However, upon hearing this person, Long Wanli and the group of clan elders all had their expressions sink, and they no longer had smiles.
Long Wanli put away his smile and said, "Don't mention this person. His personality is indeed very peculiar, but family scandals should not be made public. I won't talk about his affairs, but he is indeed dead now, and you can't take him away."
Noticing the obvious change in their expressions, Long Qian knew that he seemed to have asked about a taboo, so he didn't continue to ask.
However, he felt a great sense of regret in his heart at this moment. The one-twelfth of the mine vein he was certain to get was lost, and he felt a stinging pain.
"Don't ask about Long Qilin either. He also happened not to come. He comes every time, but only this time he went out to find building materials for the Straw Gu and was absent. It is truly a coincidence," Long Wanli shook his head helplessly.
That silly son had truly become addicted to building houses for the Straw Gu; he wasn't even that diligent when building a house for himself.
"Is he also an enthusiast who likes to watch the Straw Gu build houses? This is a disease. This kind of disease is also spreading wildly in the Western Lands Long Clan, and it is incurable," Long Qian shook his head and smiled helplessly.
"However, if he has this hobby, then it's easy to talk. As long as he wins an arena competition for our clan, then I will give him a large amount of Geng Metal as building material. Geng Metal is an excellent building material for building houses," Long Qian laughed.
The subsequent arena competitions were mediocre. Until the end of the clan competition, he did not encounter any other geniuses who made his eyes light up.
Actually, there were still some geniuses, such as Long Panpan. Her Earth Mover Beetle's metamorphosis effect was very good, but this level of genius could not achieve a steady win.
The Bai Clan was one of the ten great clans of the Western Lands, with geniuses like clouds. How could a monster who could steadily suppress the Bai Clan's geniuses be so easy to find? It was also that his requirements were too high.
In the end, he decided that Long Ziyan, Long Xuan, Long Qilin, Long Bao, and Long Yan were the five must-selects, and the other geniuses were pending. He needed more detailed information to make a decision. This matter concerned a large Geng Metal mine vein, enough to affect the clan's luck, so he could not be careless.
And that Long Biao behind him felt very uncomfortable. He had originally thought of finding an opportunity to go up to the arena to show off his skills and let them know the gap between the geniuses of big places and the geniuses of small places.
Who would have thought that the strongest geniuses of the Long Clan were so full of personality, one by one, that they said they wouldn't participate in the clan competition, so they didn't participate.
And he happened to have his own pride; he didn't want to go up to the arena to bully the weak; otherwise, even if he won, no one would think he was very strong.
So he had been standing there without moving, until the end of the clan competition, and he hadn't prepared to pick a time to jump off the high platform to participate in the martial arts competition.
Now that the clan competition had finally ended, he couldn't wait to speak, "Junior Long Biao, I came to your clan today because I want to have a duel between geniuses with Long Xuan of your clan. I hope your clan will fulfill this wish."
"Nonsense! We are guests; how can we allow you to run wild here? Why don't you retreat for me immediately!"
Long Qian was furious, immediately stood up, and shouted angrily.
Of course, this was something he had expected, and it was also a part of his plan. He was precisely planning to let Long Biao suffer a miserable defeat to curb his arrogance, so his current performance was, of course, feigned.
Long Wanli was not annoyed at all. In his view, Long Biao's chance of winning was not high. It was also good for the geniuses of the two clans to exchange pointers. If the number of strong people couldn't compare to the Western Lands Long Clan, couldn't the number of geniuses compare?
He was very confident in the geniuses of this generation of the clan. The geniuses of this generation were enough for him to earn enough face and stand tall in front of the main clan.

Upon hearing this, several people were suddenly discouraged.
They are humans, not monsters; how can they compare with those two monsters?
Under the leadership of Long Ruoxue, the group soon arrived in a massive stone building.
Unsurprisingly, this was the insect room used for raising Silver Moon Mantises. The Silver Moon Mantis is the main material for the top-quality Gu worm, the Blade Gu, so it is an insect species that the Western Lands Long Clan focuses on cultivating.
This place was therefore built very large, divided into two floors, with a large number of silver-colored mantises inside. Their foreheads all had a crescent-shaped mark, just like the moon in the sky. I'm afraid this is the reason why this insect species was named the Silver Moon Mantis.
Silver Moon Mantises come in all sizes; the large ones are taller than humans, and the small ones are not even as high as knees, staring with small eyes, looking very cute.
However, every little cutie waves the scythes on its hands from time to time, revealing its fierce appearance, a warlike look, ruining this cute exterior.
This is a large-scale cultivation base for Silver Moon Mantises. Besides Silver Moon Mantises, there is no second insect species here.
There are also many people taking care of the Silver Moon Mantises here. Under their care, many Silver Moon Mantises are sparring with each other, practicing blade techniques.
Blades collide in the air from time to time, making crisp sounds. The speed at which each Silver Moon Mantis waves its blade is surprisingly fast, and some even have blades that have become a blur, making it difficult for the naked eye to capture the speed of their blade waving.
Long Xuan asked in surprise: "Are you already teaching them blade techniques now?"
