Transmigration: The Main Character is Not Becoming the Cannon Fodder!-Chapter 521 - 18: I Am a Woman (18)
The Insect Mother didn’t last long because it wasn’t just stabbed in the head; Li Shuning’s spiritual power was also constantly eroding it. Within a minute, the Insect Mother was dead.
Of course, this doesn’t mean that Li Shuning’s spiritual power could instantly kill the Insect Mother. Previously, the Insect Mother was focused on Luo Xiao, Li Xing, and some Tenth Rank experts around. It had never imagined that there was a supreme expert hidden among the crowd.
Without prevention, there would be no countermeasures. When Li Xing went over earlier, it looked like he could take it down. At that time, the Insect Mother’s full attention was on Li Xing, which provided Li Shuning an opportunity. It can be said that the timing of Li Shuning capturing this chance was very precise.
Even if Li Shuning were to fight the Insect Mother one-on-one, even as a supreme spiritual power expert, she would never be a match for the Insect Mother.
The Insect Mother died, and the High Rank Insect Clan present instantly fell into chaos, many directly fled, while others were in a dazed state.
The humans cheered, everyone recognized that Li Xing had killed the Insect Mother.
Luo Xiao was dumbfounded; she didn’t expect that Li Xing hadn’t died. Her attack just now surely felt by Li Xing, and who knows how his luck was so good.
What to do?
For the first time, Luo Xiao felt somewhat tricky.
At this moment, it’s clearly impossible to act again.
Everyone was busy attacking those Insect Clan, and Luo Xiao naturally couldn’t remain inactive, or else it would lead to another troublesome affair when pursued.
If she had no commitments, she could simply walk away at this moment.
This world is so vast; it’s entirely possible to form an interstellar thief group casually.
But she can’t; she has commitments—she still has Shen Jian.
While clearing the Insect Clan, Luo Xiao thought through her tactics.
Without the Insect Mother, these High Rank Insect Clan members died without any resurrection capabilities left.
It took six or seven hours of killing before everyone could relax.
More than half of the Insect Clan had been slaughtered, while the rest either fled or hid away.
The remaining matter was some follow-up affairs, and it was meaningless to pursue them individually.
"Mr. Li, you’re really something, actually killed the Insect Mother. Tsk tsk tsk, when did you become so formidable?"
"Yeah, at that time, when I saw you charging towards the Insect Mother, I was worried for you. Didn’t expect you directly killed the Insect Mother, truly impressive."
Li Xing’s face was rather grim as he suddenly took off the shirt from his upper body, revealing a wound on his back.
"I’m already over ninety years old now, and for the Alliance, I’ve killed countless insects. Yet, this is the first time I’ve been tricked by my people. When Luo Xiao was behind me, she slashed me, causing me to charge right at the Insect Mother. Not dying was already a huge fortune."
Li Xing was indeed furious, having been stabbed in the back and nearly dying. Such situations can’t be kept hidden in one’s heart, right?
The expressions of those present changed.
Li Xing’s back did have a very obvious scar, clearly not one that the Insect Clan could cause.
Luo Xiao, the human most hopeful to become a supreme expert, backstabbing her own people—was she betraying humanity?
Luo Xiao’s face was somewhat pale; she knew if this wasn’t handled properly, it would be disastrous. Fortunately, during the time they were slaughtering the Insect Clan, she already decided her course of action.
"Admiral Li, at that time, I was attacking the Insect Mother with you, and I was behind you. My strike was indeed aimed at the Insect Mother. You appeared in front of me, which led to you being hit. I’m human, and I would never harm humans."
Clearly, this matter is no longer trivial.
Originally, it was a great victory, with the Insect Mother killed; even if the Insect Clan were to evolve a new Insect Mother, it would still be years later. Humanity would have at least several years of respite.
Most importantly, some talented individuals could rise during this time. In this way, even if the Insect Clan attacks again, humanity would have a bigger chance of winning.
But this great outcome was overshadowed by Luo Xiao, leaving everyone mysteriously downcast.
With the matters settled here, everyone returned to their respective planets.
Luo Xiao and Li Xing, however, went to the Alliance, waiting for the investigation.
Li Xing’s injury on his back, Luo Xiao herself admitted she caused it, but she firmly claimed her attack was aimed at the Insect Mother and was not intentional harm to Li Xing.
Intentional and accidental harm result differently.
After all, Luo Xiao’s status within the Alliance is very high.
If she insists it wasn’t intentional and there isn’t any evidence, the incident may just end with an apology from Luo Xiao.
Luo Xiao believes none of the people present at the scene could provide proof that she intended to harm Li Xing.
It’s known that when she struck, she was very careful to avoid being seen.
Li Xing believes Luo Xiao acted deliberately.
When someone attacks, such malice can be perceived, Li Xing felt it.
Actually, many present that day felt Luo Xiao acted deliberately. After all, they were all Tenth Rank experts, and such mistakes are too low-level.
Just that their opinion doesn’t matter, being Tenth Rank experts, this matter is bound to be a hassle.
The Alliance was still investigating when Shen Jian approached Li Shuning.
Li Shuning looked at the furious Shen Jian with some inexplicability. This person truly lacks sense.
"Li Shuning, I know you have prejudice against Brother Luo, but don’t you think you’ve gone too far? Allowing your father to maliciously slander Brother Luo like this. Brother Luo has done so much for humanity, yet you blacken his name over such matters—you make people lose heart. I’m warning you, sort this out with your father quickly, or..."
Li Shuning laughed out loud: "Or what? Warn me? Shen Jian, you think you’re somebody? Who are you to gesture in front of me? You’ve never even been on the Insect Clan battlefield, yet you order me around?"
"Luo Xiao has done many things for humanity, but has my father also not done a lot for humanity?"
"As for what kind of person your Brother Luo is, perhaps you haven’t even seen clearly, right? Haha! You should leave, eventually, the truth will surely come to light."
Shen Jian was hopelessly resentful but powerless against Li Shuning. Indeed, he’s no match for Li Shuning.
The Li Family’s current situation is far better than the Shen Family, their status is evidently higher—what can he do?
Shen Jian’s expression turned somewhat bleak, but then he perked up; he still awaited Brother Luo’s return.
Isn’t it merely lacking strength? Hmph, when Brother Luo returns, they’ll go out to fight thieves together, and one day, one day, he’ll make Li Shuning regret it.
Shen Jian left angrily.
