"I heard from Matteo that you captured that Grade A male insect because of a feud with other insects?"

A tall and imposing female insect stood before Cooper.

His dark red eyes, like thick pools of blood, were dangerous and sharp as he stared intently at the insect opposite him.

A flash of annoyance crossed Cooper's eyes.

He knew Matteo would tattle!

Meeting his boss's scrutinizing gaze, Cooper dared not lie, and said, half-truthfully, "Not entirely."

His gaze was sincere. "Boss, you know that it's no easy task to catch an A-grade male insect. They are always surrounded by female insects protecting them, so we simply can't make a move."

"And this Grade A male insect only has one female companion."

The implication was that Cen Li was easy to catch.

Is there only one female insect?

This is indeed quite rare.

Cooper has a point.

However, Frisky narrowed his eyes, displeased with Cooper's presumption.

"Go down and collect your 30 light whips."

This cold voice, ironically, made Cooper's worries vanish without a trace.

This punishment was the best outcome he could have imagined.

If he had to do it all over again, Cooper still wouldn't change his choice.

As he was leaving, Cooper suddenly stopped and said to the insect inside, "Boss, the male insect will be here soon to provide you with mental energy guidance."

Cen Li was not taken into the room where he usually received mental energy guidance this time.

Jemin led him through a series of winding roads, finally stopping outside a well-decorated room.

"Your task today remains the same: to provide mental support."

After saying that, Jemin turned around and knocked on the door, his attitude very respectful.

"Boss, we've brought that Grade A male insect."

A short while later, a sound came from inside.

"Come in."

Jemin pushed open the door and quickly waved behind him, signaling Cen Li to hurry up and follow.

Upon entering, Cen Li saw the female insect sitting in the very center, who was suspected to be the 'boss' they were talking about.

Like most female insects, it has a robust and sturdy body, with straight and long legs that seem to contain enormous power.

His narrow eyes, when slightly upturned, seemed to disregard all insects.

He appears arrogant and conceited.

While Cen Li was sizing up the other person, Frixi was also observing him.

The male insect has a rare hair color, as white as moonlight, and a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes.

She seems like a womanizer.

Frithy suddenly remembered something. Cooper said that the other party claimed to only marry one female insect.

A vow from a male insect?

A sarcastic smile played on Frixi's lips. His gaze on Cen Li turned mocking and uninteresting as he uttered two words in a cool tone.

"hypocritical."

A hypocritical male insect.

Cen Li was insulted for no reason. He frowned and looked at the person opposite him, quite certain that the person was referring to him.

He didn't provoke this female insect, did he?

It appears this is their first meeting.

outrageous.

Knowing that Frithian loathed male insects, Jemin quickly spoke up, "Boss, let him do some mental energy channeling for you."

To be honest, Cen Li didn't want to provide mental support to the boss they were talking about.

Moreover, the other party's attitude towards him was unfriendly.

Unfortunately, Cen Li had no choice.

Fritz nodded after a long pause.

Cen Li stepped forward expressionlessly.

Having him do mental counseling might not be a good thing.

The total number of times Cen Li performed mental energy channeling on Asher was less than the number of times he had channeled the energy on these female insects in the past few days.

His mental energy skillfully reached the other party's mental domain, but it was quickly thwarted.

Cen Li raised an eyebrow slightly.

This female insect is very wary.

His gaze shifted downwards, meeting a pair of dark red eyes, like a beast lurking in the darkness, ready to pounce and tear its prey's neck at any moment.

Cen Li was not afraid at all.

They could not possibly endanger his life.

Because Cen Li still has value.

Cen Li's voice was calm, "If you continue to resist my mental energy, then this channeling can end now."

If Frixi hadn't been on the verge of a mental breakdown, he would never have allowed a weak male insect to freely invade his mental sea.

After a two-second standoff, Frithy finally relented and relaxed his tense body.

Finally, he didn't forget to turn his head and give a warning.

"You'd better be of some use."

"What if I find out you're not useful at all..."

Frithy smirked and clenched his fist tightly, as if he were holding the neck of some insect.

His gaze was like a sharp blade, scraping inch by inch across Cen Li's fair face.

The next second, a hint of disappointment flashed in Frye's eyes.

Cen Li did not show any expression of fear or terror on his face.

Frisky's expression suddenly changed.

Cen Li quietly entered his mental sea, catching him completely off guard.

This unfamiliar sense of intrusion caused Frisky's body to stiffen.

He wanted to expel this foreign alien immediately, but then, thinking of something, he forcibly stopped himself from doing so.

In the end, his face turned blue and white from holding it in.

Cen Li looked at the other man's face, which was filled with suppressed anger, with a puzzled expression. He asked him, "What's wrong? I was just doing the mental energy channeling you were told to do."

Frisky felt that something was not quite right. Cen Li's face showed no trace of pretense, so he suspiciously looked away.

This was his first time providing mental counseling.

No one told him that mental energy therapy was so difficult to endure!

Cen Li didn't have a good impression of the female insects here, so his mental guidance for them wasn't very meticulous, and his manipulation of mental energy was unrestrained and somewhat rough.

Judging from Frithi's expression, he must be feeling terrible.

Cen Li was just putting on an act; his purpose was not to provide mental guidance, but to find out how to quietly plant a "bomb" in their minds.

He still used up his mental energy just like he had in the past few days, and his lips became a little pale, otherwise he was afraid of arousing unnecessary suspicion.

"Boss, it really works!"

"You see, the turbulent mental energy within you has stabilized considerably. With a few more mental energy channeling sessions, your mental energy will definitely return to normal levels."

Jieming took out the instrument he had prepared beforehand and immediately tested his boss's mental strength level after Cen Li finished the mental energy channeling. Seeing the value displayed on the screen, he excitedly reported the good news to his boss.

Frixi's manic mental energy had accumulated over decades, and the fact that it had only decreased slightly made him feel incredibly light.

This softened the look in his eyes when he looked at Cen Li.

"At least you're still somewhat useful."

Cen Li twitched his lips.

I hope the other party will continue to think that way in the future.

Yesterday, Cen Yifu used the treatment fluid brought by the doctor, and today she has fully recovered.

Seeing that Cen Li's physical condition had recovered well, Jieming gave his boss a mental energy boost and then arranged for 10 A-grade female insects for him.

To be honest, these insects really treat the male insects like cattle!
