Reincarnated as a Mosquito, I Sucked the Reborn Empress to Tears

Chapter 81: Chapter 81: The Shock of the 3 Top Prodigies: She’s Not the Badass, the Mosquito Is

Xiao Ran’s mouth twitched. He looked at his best friend’s fervent and devout expression and, for a moment, was at a loss for words.

Ye Xiaotao was utterly dumbfounded. Her small mouth formed an “O” as she stared blankly at the scene.

Chu Sheng: “…”

He too was completely thrown off by Huo Mingxuan’s sudden, wild move.

’Seriously, bro?’

’Isn’t this change in attitude a little too fast? Weren’t you just acting like you wanted to fight me to the death a second ago?’

Gu Yuexi also watched him speechlessly. ’Are all the geniuses from Du Nan this spineless?’

Huo Mingxuan completely ignored the varied gazes of the crowd, his expression incomparably serious.

Don’t be fooled by his current subservient posture—kneeling and calling the mosquito ’Lord’—he might have looked as ridiculous as a clown.

But this was actually the result of his careful deliberation.

Of course, he didn’t believe the mosquito could understand his words. No matter how heaven-defying its abilities were, it was still just an insect-type Demon Beast. Its Spiritual Wisdom was innately lower than others of an equivalent Bloodline level!

’Its Spiritual Wisdom probably doesn’t even reach the Middle-Grade, does it?’

Therefore, Huo Mingxuan’s words just now were actually all meant for Gu Yuexi!

’This situation right now… this is a life-changing, fate-defying opportunity!’

’A King-level Bloodline!’

Ye Xiaotao’s Moonlight Spirit Fox had an aptitude similar to his family’s Thunderstorm Vajra; both were High-Level (Five Stars) Bloodlines, stuck at a bottleneck for who knows how many years.

To help his Thunderstorm Vajra break through to King-level, the resources the Huo Family had spent over the years were already worth over a hundred million!

And the result?

Absolutely nothing!

The threshold to King-level was like an insurmountable chasm, holding them firmly in its grip.

But now, Ye Xiaotao’s fox had broken through so easily, all because this mosquito had taken a bite of its blood!

’An opportunity like this… is a once-in-a-lifetime chance!’

And this opportunity was in the hands of the cold and detached girl before him.

’Ask her directly?’

’That’s too blunt! I was just spewing malicious words at her, and now I’m turning around to ask for a favor. Why would she even bother with me?’

That’s why he came up with this move.

By using this almost performance-art-like method—kneeling to the mosquito and calling it “Lord Mosquito”—he could both express his sincerity and cleverly defuse the previous tense atmosphere.

As long as Gu Yuexi spoke up, even if it was just one sentence, the matter would be open for discussion!

’I’m a fucking genius!’

Huo Mingxuan gave himself a thumbs-up in his heart.

However, Gu Yuexi just glanced at him, sighed with a hint of weariness, and turned her gaze to the mosquito on her shoulder, saying coolly:

“You decide.”

Huo Mingxuan: “?”

Xiao Ran: “?”

Ye Xiaotao: “?”

The three of them were collectively petrified again, their faces covered in question marks.

’What the hell?’

’Let *it* decide on its own?’

’Are you kidding me? It’s an insect-type Demon Beast. Does it even have the intelligence for that?’

Huo Mingxuan’s heart skipped a beat. ’Could it be that she’s unwilling? Is she using these words to brush me off?’

The expression on his face instantly turned ugly.

Gu Yuexi saw their confusion and calmly explained, “Its Spiritual Wisdom is Top-Grade Five Stars.”

The three of them: “???”

That sentence nearly blew their minds!

’Top-Grade… Five Stars?!’

’Are you kidding me?!’

Xiao Ran and the other two were all top-tier Beast Taming prodigies.

They certainly knew what those words represented!

That was wisdom on par with a human sage!

Forget about a mosquito, not even a legendary Divine Beast with an Emperor-level Bloodline was guaranteed to possess it!

Xiao Ran’s Three-headed Red Flame Lion, already a one-in-ten-thousand King-level Bloodline, only had a Spiritual Wisdom rating of “Top Notch (Four Stars)”!

It was still a world away from the chasm of “Top-Grade”!

’This mosquito…’

The three of them looked at Chu Sheng, their eyes filled with doubt and disbelief.

But at the same time, they felt that Gu Yuexi seemed to have no reason to lie to them about something like this.

Seeing the looks on their faces, as if they’d seen a ghost, Chu Sheng was also rather speechless.

’Why does everyone always doubt Lord Mosquito’s intelligence?’

With a mere thought, he mobilized his Mental Power, which had already reached the Second-Grade Early Stage, and sent an extremely simple idea toward the three of them.

“Without a doubt!”

BZZZ!

Huo Mingxuan, Xiao Ran, and Ye Xiaotao all felt as if a voice had abruptly rung out in their minds!

The three of them trembled violently, their eyes widening once more!

’Mental Power transmission?!’

’No… it’s not a transmission, just a vague idea!’

But that was terrifying enough!

To transmit a thought via Mental Power, one needed a Mental Power strength of at least the Second-Grade Early Stage!

And to achieve true telepathic communication, one would need Mental Power at the Fourth-Grade or higher!

’This mosquito… isn’t its Qi Blood only at the Second-Grade Early Stage? Its Mental Power has also reached the Second-Grade Early Stage?!’

’Qi Blood and Spirit growing in sync?!’

’This… isn’t that something only a Demon Beast with an Emperor-level Bloodline could possibly achieve?’

’Just what kind of monster is it?!’

A tidal wave of shock crashed through the minds of Xiao Ran and the others; they felt as if their understanding and common sense had been shattered to pieces!

Since it possessed such absurd Mental Power, then possessing Top-Grade Five Stars Spiritual Wisdom… seemed… maybe… not so hard to accept anymore?

At that moment, they were utterly convinced!

The reason this Gu Yuexi was so highly valued by the Federation, the reason she could be directly parachuted into their Hidden Dragon Class, it had to be! It was definitely because of this mosquito!

This was… a case of one’s status rising with their mosquito!

Having figured this out, Huo Mingxuan immediately realized that he really did have to beg this mosquito!

He slowly stood up, straightened his collar, then faced Chu Sheng and cupped his fists solemnly, his tone sincere to the extreme:

“Lord Mosquito, I was blind to your greatness! As long as you’re willing to help, to purify my Thunderstorm Vajra’s Bloodline and raise it to King-level, you can name any price!”

“Whatever the condition, ten million? A hundred million? As long as my Huo Family can provide it, it’s not a problem!”

Hearing this, Chu Sheng was blooming with joy internally.

’This ability of mine really is valuable!’

’But money is useless to me. I can’t use it to buy Evolution Points.’

’Since this is a trade, I definitely need to get something useful for myself!’

What he needed were things that could tangibly increase his own strength!

Chu Sheng immediately conveyed his thoughts to Gu Yuexi through the Blood Covenant.

Although they were just some vague ideas, Gu Yuexi still understood. She acted as his deadpan translator, “It says it doesn’t want money. It wants to trade for Spirit Grass or Demon Beast Essence Blood.”

“The Spirit Grass must be Third-Grade or higher.”

“The Demon Beast Essence Blood must be from at least an Intermediate Bloodline or higher.”

Gu Yuexi strongly agreed with Chu Sheng’s demands. She wasn’t short on money either; these Cultivation Resources were what was most important.

Huo Mingxuan was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed!

’Thank goodness, it’s not something I can’t produce!’

“No problem!” he immediately pressed, “Then… what is the specific quantity required?”

Chu Sheng didn’t know the market rates. How would he know what the “list price” for a mouthful of his spit was?

Gu Yuexi naturally understood this as well. On Chu Sheng’s behalf, she gave a reply full of cool confidence: “It says you can decide how much to give.”

Huo Mingxuan: “…”

’Damn, it’s making me bid based on my sincerity!’

He gritted his teeth, a decision instantly forming in his mind.

“Alright! Lord Mosquito, rest assured! I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer tomorrow!”

A problem that could be solved with resources was no problem at all!

As long as his Thunderstorm Vajra could also evolve into a King-level Bloodline, his, Huo Mingxuan’s, status in the family would skyrocket instantly! In the future, he might even have a chance to become the heir of the Huo Family!

’This small price is nothing!’

Just then, Xiao Ran, who was standing to the side, finally recovered from his shock.

He strode forward, first apologizing to Gu Yuexi with a face full of remorse, then turned to Chu Sheng and said with utmost sincerity:

“Lor… Lord Mosquito!”

He also didn’t know what to call a mosquito, so he simply followed Huo Mingxuan’s lead.

“I was blind to your greatness before and caused much offense. I hope you can forgive me!”

“Not only did you cure Xiaoyan’s chronic ailment, but you also resolved a massive worry for me! I, Xiao Ran, will never forget this kindness for the rest of my life!”

“To show my gratitude, I am willing to offer one hundred stalks of Third-Grade or higher Spirit Herbs and Elixirs! I implore you to accept them!”

He was also guessing in his heart that the mosquito sucking on Spirit Grass earlier probably wasn’t a waste, but an extremely special method of Cultivation!

Therefore, offering Spirit Grass was definitely the perfect way to curry favor!

Xiao Ran was well aware that with the heaven-defying abilities this mosquito had displayed, its and its master’s future achievements were absolutely immeasurable!

He had to build a good relationship with them ahead of time!
