Lethal Stunner: Kicking Off with Five Beast Husbands

Chapter 255: Chapter 255: Call Xiao Jinsheng to Save Me

"You’re laughing?" Insect Brain fixed its gaze on Bai Yan.

Bai Yan composed herself, shook her head calmly, and said, "No."

"Don’t try to fool me!" Insect Brain warned.

"At a time like this, do you think I could laugh?" Bai Yan furiously countered, "If it were you, stripped of your freedom and surrounded entirely by humans, laugh for me, would you?"

Insect Brain fell silent.

It recalled the period when it had disguised its system and bound itself to Bai Yan.

Although that time was brief, even shorter than the time Insect Brain 1.0 had spent with Bai Yan,

in retrospect, thinking about it still made Insect Brain 2.0 feel entirely uncomfortable.

It had parasitized Bai Yan.

And at that time, everyone surrounding Bai Yan had been human.

The immersion of this experience was too visceral for Insect Brain. To be encircled by a hostile species was something it never wanted to endure again.

But... so what?

It was it, and Bai Yan was Bai Yan.

A human. A human who could only survive by relying on their Insect Clan.

What right did she have to negotiate with the Insect Clan!

"You want freedom? Fine." Insect Brain responded.

"Your superpower is Insect Clan affinity."

"As long as your affinity with the Insect Clan reaches Twelve Stars, you can have your freedom."

"I’ve already reached Five Stars, but I’ve run out of Star Stones," Bai Yan said, spreading her hands helplessly.

"Let your Beast Husband earn them," Insect Brain replied.

It wasn’t going to provide Star Stones to Bai Yan free of charge.

Similarly, it wouldn’t let Bai Yan leave to search for Star Stones herself.

At first, it had Bai Yan’s several Beast Husbands work for the Insect Clan, doing odd jobs to earn a few Star Stones, which were handed over to Bai Yan.

"You can’t leave, but your Beast Husbands can." Insect Brain’s thoughts shifted.

It let out a cold chuckle: "To the west of the Mist, there are plenty of Star Stones."
