"Mr. Li, this time, you've really helped me out a lot."
Mr. Li was feeling guilty when he saw Xu Fan start to express his gratitude.
He couldn't help but find it a bit funny—him, helping out a lot?
Helping out a lot... what does that even mean?
"Kid, are you mocking me?"
He guessed that the kid was probably complaining about having made a wasted trip.
"Mr. Li, I'm not joking with you."
Xu Fan shook his head; he was not joking. Indeed, Mr. Li had unintentionally shown him a clear path forward.
As the saying goes, wherever you fall, just lie there.
Situ Jing had once been defeated by his foster mother's Gu insect, so Xu Fan would make him fall into the same trap again.
Refining Gu insects—he could do that too.
Recalling what Mr. Li had just described, Xu Fan remembered the various effects of Gu insects documented in the Ghost Gu Art.
With Situ Jing's current cultivation level, some of the low-level Gu insects from the Ghost Gu Art would be ineffective against him.
