Yang Qing let out a small chuckle when he saw the reluctant look on Haishi's face as they were leaving. She seemed to have formed a bond with the crescent moth and the diamond beetle more so the latter. He had no idea if it was because they were all insect spirit beasts, so it was a form of camaraderie among fellow insect spirit beasts or something else.
She did say she had been close with the green flowered babirusa and maybe her fondness for the diamond beetle may have something to do with it.
The diamond beetle had not yet awakened its sentience, and in terms of cultivation base it could be considered to be at the same level as a qi refinement cultivator, but even then, it had a significant build to it.
It was about the size of Yang Qing's head and would continue to grow the higher its cultivation base grew. By the time it reached the core formation realm Yang Qing had a feeling it would be about the same size as the hulking green flowered babirusa.
