I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second-Chapter 582: A Familiar Face in a Distant Land, The Long-Awaited Ideal Son-in-Law

Chapter 582: Chapter 582: A Familiar Face in a Distant Land, The Long-Awaited Ideal Son-in-Law

The middle-aged man maintained a distance from the swarm of silver beetles, muttering incantations under his breath. It only took one glance to ascertain that the man was a mage-type professional, currently casting a spell.

Keeping a distance from the swarm was likely due to fear of his spell being interrupted or some unexpected event happening, which he wouldn’t have time to react to and dodge.

Judging by his ability to make the swarm act against their nature and attack each other, it wasn’t hard to deduce that this middle-aged man was an illusionist-type professional.

Perhaps because he had just recently advanced to the War God level and wasn’t yet adept at utilizing the Supreme Law, the middle-aged man could only control two silver beetles at a time to fight.

The achievements were indeed not bad, but the efficiency was quite low.

Just as the sixth pair of fighting silver beetles was about to resolve their conflict, an unexpected situation arose.

Sweat began to appear densely on the forehead of the middle-aged man who was continuously casting spells.

His fingers forming the seal visibly became much more forceful, replacing his originally relaxed expression with tightly furrowed brows.

"Damn it, how could this be."

"These damn silver beetles, how did they suddenly become so difficult to control!"

Muttering to himself, a massive shadow, only visible to him, unfurled behind him.

It was a giant dark purple bee, covered in sharp spikes all over its body.

Unlike the bees on Blue Star, this one’s wings were almost entirely degenerated, nearly impossible to notice without careful observation.

Its abdomen was disproportionately large, nearly a hundred times its former size.

"Hehe, mere human, you dare to vie with me for control over my subjects?"

"Do you take the Insect Race Queen for a vegetarian?!"

A voice that was both sinister and mocking rang out from behind him.

An overwhelming extreme cold, accompanied by that chilling voice, penetrated the body of the middle-aged man.

The fear in his heart caused him to lose his focus, even losing control over his own body.

So much so that the nearby silver beetles all regained their mobility unnoticed.

"Have you people of Blue Star been too arrogant lately??"

"Even a mere illusionist mage dares to venture deep into the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms alone, as if not taking my Insect Race seriously at all."

"Fine then, today I’ll make an example of you. When your maimed body is discovered, only then can my Insect Race’s prestige once again intimidate the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms."

The Insect Race Queen vibrated her mouthparts, emitting a peculiar sonic wave.

The remaining seventeen controlled silver beetles instantly returned to their normal state, baring their teeth and claws, lunging at the now immobile middle-aged man.

The man truly hadn’t expected that his intention of merely farming some common monsters for training and possibly getting lucky with a treasure drop would lead him to encounter the Insect Race Queen.

Nor had he anticipated that just establishing an indirect mental connection with the Insect Race Queen would lead to such significant trouble for him.

Watching as the large and sharp mandibles of the silver beetles aimed at his body.

The middle-aged man seemed to see death itself standing before him, beckoning to him.

An endless regret surged up within him.

He hadn’t even had the chance to use his Signal Spirit Crystal to request assistance; was everything going to end so quickly?

Just as it seemed the man would be dismembered in the next second, an extreme cold suddenly surged forth.

"Wuhoo, it seems I arrived just in time, don’t you think, Uncle Nangong Su?"

Lin Yi snapped his fingers, and an ice-blue halo spread out instantly.

Everything touched by the blue ripple instantly transformed into an ice sculpture.

"Supreme Law?"

The shadow behind Nangong Su immediately realized the young man before him was no ordinary person upon seeing Lin Yi.

"Hmm, just a mere Supreme Law. It shouldn’t be too much of a threat to you, Your Majesty, should it?"

Just a mere Supreme Law?

It’s true the Insect Race is troublesome, but there’s one thing they can’t deny.

And that is their low ceiling.

When the Upper-Rank God paired the Insect Hive Star with Blue Star, he had already considered the balance of power between both sides.

In terms of physical prowess, breeding speed, or growth period, humans are notably inferior to the Insect Race.

But when it comes to talent in cultivation, individual human potential far surpasses that of the Insect Hive Star.

The words "just a mere" nearly caused a meltdown for the Insect Race Queen. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

After all, what she currently wielded was merely a subordinate Law under the Creation Law.

"Human, arrogantly reckless!"

The Insect Race Queen felt displeased upon hearing this.

The shadow once again vibrated its mouthparts, emitting waves of sound that could daze one’s spirit.

Truth be told, this move worked quite well on Nangong Su.

But for Lin Yi, who possessed the Great Celestial Immortal Skill, it had no effect.

There was no helping it; the immensely powerful passive immunities were truly heaven-defying, which left the Insect Nest Queen shrieking in vain, failing to have any effect.

Six Dao No-Thought Slash: Human Dao

The more the Insect Race Queen shrieked, the more fervently she grew, the frequency and amplitude of her sonic waves continuously expanding.

While Lin Yi could remain immune, Nangong Su found it a bit hard to withstand.

To prevent any irreversible internal injuries, Lin Yi immediately intervened with a slash.

The shadow of the Insect Race Queen behind Nangong Su partially dissipated into nothingness immediately.

The mesmerizing spirit-capturing sonic waves abruptly ceased.

"Lin Yi, my young friend, is it you?"

Seeing the son-in-law that his daughter bragged about saving him, Nangong Su was slightly excited.

"Ah, no, Xiaoyi, I didn’t expect to see you here, Uncle is immensely pleased, truly, the bond between you and my Xiaoling is profound indeed~"

Uh...

Lin Yi found himself at a loss for how to respond for a moment.

Lin Yi’s name resounded across Blue Star, that was a long time ago.

If Nangong Su and the elders of the Nangong Family hadn’t seen Lin Yi come to their home for dinner, they would never have believed their girl found such an excellent husband.

Since that time, Nangong Su had always been subtly asking his daughter about bringing that wonderful son-in-law home again, managing a meeting of the families to discuss their union, and the like, to the point where it all tangled up Nangong Su.

Since the dear junior brother accepted the secret mission arranged by Xu Sheng, he had rarely appeared in Shenxiao.

Nangong Su couldn’t well ask Lin Yi to help quell the murmurs among his family again and had to find various reasons to defer.

Even when Lin Yi bore the brunt of slander, the elders of the Nangong family chose to put their trust in this young man. And after Lin Yi became a hero of Blue Star, the level of satisfaction the Nangong Clan felt about Lin Yi as a "son-in-law" reached its peak.

Nangong Ling, each day, would receive dozens of phone calls from relatives, all remarkably uniform in content, asking when Nangong Su would bring home the prized son-in-law of the Nangong family.

Encountering the esteemed son-in-law of the Nangong family on the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms, how could Nangong Su not be excited?

"Uncle, we can discuss matters of fate later. Let me first meet this Insect Race Queen and see what she’s really about!"

Saying this, Lin Yi raised his right hand.
