The poisonous insects were frantically tearing at each other, severed limbs flying everywhere, fresh blood splattering, and in the blink of an eye, many were dead.

The Demon-Banning Guard hurriedly attempted to control the Array to stop the chaos, but could only seal off the basin and couldn't stop the poisonous insects inside from fighting.

"What's going on?"

Silver Moon looked at Shen Wang, unsure of why the poisonous insects were agitated.

"It wasn't me."

Shen Wang shook his head. Before he could find out the reason, the poisonous creatures caged in the sheds began to fight madly with each other, leaving him quite puzzled as well.

"Then why are they fighting?"

Silver Moon frowned.

Shen Wang looked at the only calm Gu King, which emitted a colorful glow, and pondered, "When did you catch this Five-Colored Spider?"

"The night before last."

Silver Moon looked at the Five-Colored Spider, "Is it responsible for the poisonous insect riot?"

"It should be. Moreover, I feel it was intentionally caught for you, otherwise, how did it become Gu King overnight?"

Shen Wang speculated.

"You mean I've been calculated against!"

Silver Moon's face darkened as she thought of something, "That bitch Molan, I kindly let her choose some poisonous insects for me, and she set her sights on all the poisonous insects here."

Shen Wang's expression turned strange, "You directly asked someone for Gu insects?"

"What else could I do? The ordinary poisonous insects had already been tested almost completely. If I didn't ask them, should I go into the wild to find them?"

Silver Moon looked at Shen Wang, "Why don't you go and find them?"

"Big sister, why are you dragging me into this again."

Shen Wang felt a bit frustrated, catching mice had already bored him enough, and if he had to catch poisonous insects too, he might just quit.

"Hmph, I know you think this is stupid, but we precisely need to let them know what we're doing and be helpless against us!"

Silver Moon sneered.

"Alright, after watching them fight, I reckon those that survive will be the chosen Gu heads, and if we continue, maybe another Gu King will emerge."

Shen Wang watched the rampaging poisonous insects, "She's helping you cultivate stronger poisonous creatures, no need to call her a bitch."

"What is she to you, that you speak for her?" Silver Moon glared at Shen Wang.

"..."

Shen Wang was puzzled, "Why would you think that? What relationship do I have with her? Are you concerned?"

"What if you're an undercover agent sent by Jade Silkworm Valley?" Silver Moon expressed suspicion.

Shen Wang could only say that he did not understand how this woman thought, playfully replying, "It seems you're really interested in me, could it be you're jealous?"

The surrounding Demon-Banning Guards all looked over; this guy was bold, daring to tease even Princess Yin Yue.

Having such courage at the Foundation Establishment Stage, they were a bit impressed.

"Do you believe I'll let you taste the spider's poison right now?" Silver Moon's expression was unfriendly.

"Big sister, be gentle; only then will someone love you."

Shen Wang took a step back, ready to flee at any moment, not confident enough to withstand the Five-Colored Spider's poison.

"I don't need anyone's love. If you dare tease me again, I'll be rude to you!"

Silver Moon's face was icy.

Seeing her react so strongly, Shen Wang guessed it was the impact of the Royal Family upbringing—cold in nature—so he added, "We'll talk when I can beat you."

Silver Moon was a bit annoyed; this guy was so aggravating.

The poisonous insects continued to fight. Due to the increasing number of poisonous insects over the days, the newly added ones were mixed together.

As such, dozens of basins became battlefields for the poisonous insects. These serpents and insects were in life-and-death struggles, making Shen Wang slightly confused.

What factors were driving these poisonous insects to fight?

Perhaps these were rules among the venomous creatures that he couldn't understand from a human perspective.

Soon, the fighting stopped.

In some basins, only one venomous creature was left alive, heavily scarred.

In others, all were wiped out.

Shen Wang pondered thoughtfully, "This must be Raising Gu. You should thank Molan; without this Gu King, perhaps the fighting wouldn't have been triggered."

"You go thank her."

Silver Moon replied blandly.

Feeling Silver Moon's words were a bit straightforward, Shen Wang didn't linger on it and continued, "I suspect the reason they fought was that they felt threatened for survival by this Five-Colored Spider, so to survive, they had to devour other poisonous insects and grow stronger."

"Oh, so you mean if we throw them together, they'll continue to fight, ultimately producing new Gu Kings, and then fight the Five-Colored Spider to decide the victor?"

Silver Moon pondered, phrasing it as a question but internally agreeing with Shen Wang's speculation.

"Yes, Raising Gu entails not only having them starve and turn on each other, but also under the threat of a powerful Gu King, where poisonous insects fight for survival."

Shen Wang stated.

"Then let them continue. I want to see if that's really the case."

Silver Moon was intrigued.

"Don't rush; let them rest for a couple of days, eat these spoils, digest their food, and recover some strength before continuing; it should be better."

Shen Wang suggested.

"Are you trying to slack off for two days?"

Silver Moon stared at Shen Wang.

"Since you let me research these poisonous creatures, you should follow my lead."

Shen Wang said flatly, "Take two or three days to rest and also review the previous records."

"Alright, go ahead. Among the hundreds of toxic substances in the past, antitoxins cover ten, but it's not simple enough. You better come up with one antidote that can cure all toxins for me."

Silver Moon bluntly stated her demand.

She went through great lengths to conduct poison tests, aiming to find the best antidote to prevent heavy casualties during real combat.

"I'll do my best, but to create a medicine that can resolve various toxins, it still involves the realm of Alchemy."

Shen Wang nodded.

"Naturally, they will cooperate with you, but you need to identify detoxifying herbs and formulas."

Silver Moon insisted.

"Actually, there's another method. With so many toxins raised in Jade Silkworm Valley, they must have top-level Antitoxic Pills."
