Chapter 884: Defusing

"No matter what the cost, we must implore Li Zhirui to take action and resolve the Gu Insect issue!"

Hearing such adamant words, some Nascent Soul Cultivators were still reluctant, especially those who had openly ridiculed Li Zhirui, fearing that he might humiliate them in turn and still trying to prevent this.

"Why don't we ask the Great Devil Qing'ai to make a move? With his strength, he can surely eliminate the Gu Insects."

"This..."

Great Devils should not interfere in battles without cause, but simply cleaning up Gu Insects in the rear does not constitute breaking the rules.

However, what they hadn't anticipated was that the Great Devil Qing'ai, whom they had pinned their hopes on, had been paying attention to them all along and spoke up, "I am also unable to detect those Gu Insects."

In truth, Qing'ai also felt awkward; after all, despite publicly maintaining neutrality during their past conflict, he had exerted pressure on Li Zhirui in secret and issued a warning.
