<h4>Chapter 191: Chapter 191: Suspicion Among Female and Beastmen</h4><h4></h4>


    Xiao Jinshengpared her own situation and found it difficult not to suspect that the Terminal deliberately added such a task to hunt for betrayers.


    The Terminal wouldn’t kill her outright.


    Instead, it would choose this disgusting method to keep everyone trapped in perpetual fear.


    And it would deepen distrust among people in this Apocalypse World.


    The uing Mist Continent would be filled with suspicion between families.


    Even worse, between females and Beastmen.


    At this moment, far away in Bai Yan’s home in Cui Bai City.


    "Insect n?" Kong Chengrui listened to the Terminal’s announcement, his face heavy with unease.


    Even though he tried hard to suppress his thoughts,


    the details of what happened back in the Tree nting Area in Moon City kepting back to him.


    A disgusting ck insect had indeed crawled out of Bai Yan’s body at the time.


    And Bai Yan’s awakened second superpower happened to be Revival.


    Especially now, in the past two days, Bai Yan had been uncharacteristically raising insects she used to fear and detest.


    Thinking about how thervae had feasted on fresh meat he himself had hunted from a Mutant Beast today, Kong Chengrui could no longer sit still.


    He got up and walked toward Bai Yan’s breeding room, lightly knocking on the door: "Xiao Yan, are you busy? I need to talk to you."


    Bai Yan, at that moment, was having a heated argument with the Insect Brain.


    Hearing Kong Chengrui’s voice, Bai Yan quickly stopped herself from snapping at the Insect Brain.


    She understood her Beast Husband well.


    Besides, she had been married to these Beast Husbands for over a year now.


    ncing at thervae in the ss tank, Bai Yan knew deep down that Kong Chengrui had suddenly sought her out because of the recent announcement from the Terminal.


    Kong Chengrui very likely... suspected her.


    Bai Yan furrowed her brows, her mind racing to figure out how to respond.


    The Insect Brain, seeing her predicament, mercilessly mocked her: [You’re screwed. Your Beast Husband ising to interrogate you.]


    Insect Brain: [Let me guess. If your Beast Husband finds out that the Mist Continent is about to face yet another apocalyptic disaster, what do you think they’ll think of you—despite being husband and wife?]


    Insect Brain: [Do you think... they might kill you?]


    Bai Yan roared in anger: [Shut up!]


    Insect Brain: [Why are you so nervous?]


    Insect Brain: [You have the Contractual Totem and the Terminal binding you together.]


    Insect Brain: [Even if they really want to kill you, they wouldn’t survive either.]


    Bai Yan said coldly: [I told you to shut up!]


    When Bai Yan opened the door with a cold expression on her face, her demeanor shifted the moment she looked at Kong Chengrui.


    Her anger vanished, reced by an innocent and bewildered smile.


    "Ah Rui, what’s wrong?" Bai Yan asked with a smile.


    "Xiao Yan..." Kong Chengrui’s voice faltered.


    Remembering Bai Yan’s kindness in the past, he was unwilling to associate her with the betrayer the Terminal had mentioned.


    The questions fueled by suspicion that he was originally going to ask Bai Yan quickly dissipated upon seeing her.


    Kong Chengrui offered a concerned smile: "Xiao Yan, didn’t you raise a fewrvae as pets?"


    "You must have heard the Terminal’s announcement just now."


    "I’d like to take a look at thoservae."


    Bai Yan looked at him with hurt, her expression filled with disbelief: "You’re suspecting me because of what the Terminal said?"


    Seeing Bai Yan’s sadness, Kong Chengrui hurried to exin: "Xiao Yan, I’m just worried you might have been deceived. Since the Terminal issued this announcement, it means the Insect n is as terrifying as the Fog Corpses—or even more dangerous."


    "The current situation is different. We need to be cautious of any insects, no matter what."


    "I just want to confirm whether theservae are products of the Mist Continent or part of the Interster Insect n mentioned by the Terminal."


    Bai Yan discreetly observed Kong Chengrui, noticing his genuine concern for her, and felt slightly reassured.


    She wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes,ughing softly: "Of course, I trust you. You’re in such a hurry because you’re afraid thervae might really belong to the Interster Insect n, and you’re worried about me being hurt."


    Hearing Bai Yan’s understanding words, Kong Chengrui secretly breathed a sigh of relief.


    As he followed Bai Yan to check on thervae in the ss tank, Kong Chengrui’s expression grew tense.


    Thervae, left unfed for a long time, began eating everything around them in the absence of fresh meat.


    At that moment, they were scattered in various corners of the ss tank, slicing the ss with their pincers.


    Bai Yan had used fairly thick ss for the tank, with a thickness of eight millimeters.


    Yet, under thervae’s sharp scythes, a hole with a diameter of two centimeters had already been cut out.


    "Xiao Yan, after the Mist Continent’s apocalypse, only beast species mutated," Kong Chengrui reminded her. "Even if insects mutated, they wouldn’t be this terrifying."


    Post-apocalyptic mutated insects were harder to kill and had adopted a habit of eating fresh and decaying meat.


    But they wouldn’t behave like theservae, eating even ss.


    This kind of creature that could eat ss was something Kong Chengrui had never seen before, even in the wake of the apocalypse.


    "Xiao Yan, these should be the Interster Insect n that the Terminal mentioned," Kong Chengrui said. "The Terminal only stated that insect eggs must be sent to Cloud Ind for elimination."


    But for insect eggs that had already hatched, Kong Chengrui wasn’t sure if they still needed to be sent to Cloud Ind.


    Cloud Ind was far away in the Northern Territory, and a trip there would take over a month.


    Theservae would likely grow up during the journey.


    Rather than sending them to Cloud Ind, Kong Chengrui leaned toward killing them right away.


    Bai Yan also feared theservae growing up.


    So she went along with Kong Chengrui’s proposal: "You’re right. Just in case, theservae cannot be kept."


    "Alright." Kong Chengrui nodded,pletely dismissing his doubts about Bai Yan.


    Watching thervae cutting through the ss with increasing precision, Kong Chengrui began to loathe himself.


    He thought, Bai Yan’s Revival power was awakened as her second superpower.


    It was merely Revival—even though it was unique, it paledpared to another female’s uniqueness.


    Recalling the battle back then, how Xiao Jinsheng single-handedly wielded multiple superpowers, Kong Chengrui crushed thervae into slimy pieces with his ability as he spoke: "Xiao Yan, who do you think the betrayer mentioned by the Terminal might be?"


    Hearing this, Bai Yan’s heart tightened.


    As she pondered her response, she heard Kong Chengrui resolutely continue: "The Terminal described the betrayer as possessing unique abilities and an extraordinary physique."


    "I actually have a suspect in mind."


    Bai Yan looked up and met Kong Chengrui’s gaze, hearing him enunciate clearly: "That female who’s always been against you—Xiao Jinsheng."


    He couldn’t confirm whether Xiao Jinsheng had an extraordinary physique.


    But one thing was certain: Xiao Jinsheng’s powers were undoubtedly unique.


    Every superpower she disyed could be found in those around her.


    Not only were the powers identical, but even the star-levels corresponding to the forms of herpanions matched her Beastmen husbands perfectly.


    This made it impossible to gauge Xiao Jinsheng’s true power based on her own Superpower Level during battles.


    Perhaps her Plundering Superpower was only rated at 4 Stars.


    Yet, duringbat, she could unleash four different powers at 10 Stars or even 12 Stars.


    Additionally, there was another point of suspicion surrounding Xiao Jinsheng that troubled Kong Chengrui.


    After swiftly exterminating thervae, he turned to Bai Yan and offered a reminder: "Beside Xiao Jinsheng looms something that doesn’t resemble a Mutant Beast or any product of the Mist Continent."


    A sentient pumpkin.


    A thing that could morph from a pumpkin into a walking leek, exhibiting bizarre, non-human traits.


    Kong Chengrui said, "I suspect that pumpkin is part of the Insect n—if not, then it’s a product of the Interster World mentioned by the Terminal."


    From this, Kong Chengrui became even more convinced that Xiao Jinsheng was very likely the betrayer described by the Terminal.


    Because only beside Xiao Jinsheng had he seen the things the Terminal associated with the Interster World.
