The Gate-Gu Insect let out an angry roar of pain, its body thrashing so violently that both Qin Yongping and Guo Yufu were thrown backward. Seeing the insect injured, the Masked Man was struck with shock.
Never had he expected that these three could actually injure the Gate-Gu Insect. Gritting his teeth, he pulled a small vial from his robes and hurled it at the creature. The vial shattered in midair, splashing its contents across the insect's wounds, which healed at a visible rate right before their eyes.
