216 A Monkey Paradise (1/2)
”Mama, mama!” The gray mantis finally spoke up after waiting all this time. ”I have news, from our spies in the human world.”
The queen paused and peered at the shorter, thinner beast. ”Oh, it's Little Gray, tell me quickly!”
The gray mantis nodded and explained everything that the void bees observed in the city. It explained in great detail the process of the beast auction and He Xingping's task to obtain the best fox beasts.
”Cha! It seems that the rumors are true. When that toad face got all excited, I refused to believe him. There is a great chance the nine tailed fox is alive and we cannot let it remain in human hands.”
”That's right! Let's kill all the meat bags!”
The queen and the child shared a laugh.
”Go, my child, head to the monkey realm and send word to their king. Also, send word to the toad king. This matter cannot be delayed, we must attack the city and obtain the fox at all costs!”
”Yes, but…” The gray mantis suddenly seemed uncertain.
”What is it?” The queen asked.
”For this great contribution, can I have a reward?”
The queen didn't reply so the gray mantis continued, ”Mama, I can take the place of those human scum and make love to you instead?”
”Kakaka! Good child.” The queen laughed, ”Mother will accept your love eventually, but are you prepared to die for it?”
”I am willing!” The gray mantis said resolutely.
”Cha! You are still too young. Wait a few more years and diligently cultivate. If you manage to reach the Spirit King Realm, you won't even have to die.”
”Really? Mama, just you wait. I will definitely reach the Spirit King Realm!”
The gray mantis fluttered its wings and leaped down the platform. Chen Wentian also followed, not willing to give up the chance of finding the lair of the last beast king. The huge insect beast was much easier to follow than the void bee and he easily tracked behind it in its shadow.
