Immortality: Raising an Ant Queen to Cultivate by increasing stat points

Chapter 282: Chapter 275: Jiu Yin in Distress_1

Fortunately, although it appeared extremely furious within the Insect Jar, its weakness was also very obvious. Its biting ability had not yet reached the level of being able to bite through metal.

One could even say that it was far from being able to bite through metal.

Qin Niu was relieved this time.

He took out another Metal Bug Canister and captured the other half of the Red-eyed Golden Toad’s body.

The Golden Toad still seemed somewhat reluctant to let go of its tongue.

This glutton must have also sensed the scent, knowing that the body of the mystical creature was an exceptional tonic.

“You little beast, so it was you who snatched away my Taiyin Yaoyao. Today, I shall grind you to dust and scatter your ashes,” Insect Master roared like a madman, desperately attacking Vice City Lord Bai, trying to shake off the latter’s grip so he could kill Qin Niu.

Qin Niu faced Elder Jiu Yin’s frenzied cursing with a look of disdain.

“Lord Bai, 1 leave the enemy to you. I’ll find a way to kill this mystical creature immediately,” Qin Niu said, intentionally provoking Elder Jiu Yin.

He wanted to make him crazy before he made him die.

Once Elder Jiu Yin went mad, his mind would not be as calm as usual, and he was prone to exposing flaws.

At that point, it would give Vice City Lord Bai the chance to take advantage and kill him.

‘Haha, no problem, just kill the precious mystical creature of that old Jiu Yin for me,” Deputy City Lord responded with a hearty laugh.

“Left and right guards, join me in breaking out immediately. We must kill that httle beast and take back the mystical creature,” Elder Jiu Yin demanded, not expecting his prized Taiyin Yaoyao to be so easily captured by Qin Niu.

Logically, not even a powerful individual of the Innate Realm, let alone Vice City Lord Bai, should have been capable of capturing the Taiyin Yaoyao. This made Elder Jiu Yin realize that Qin Niu might possess some special method.

“Haha, Elder Jiu Yin, you might as well stay here and keep Deputy City Lord Bai company!” Deputy City Lord Bai laughed heartily, formed a seal with his hands, and shouted, “Trap!”

Suddenly, beams of light rose from all around, rotating continuously, sealing off the entire area.

Deputy City Lord Bai and Elder Jiu Yin were trapped inside.

“What, is this the Spirit Trapping Formation? Bai Xuezhu, you sly old fox, playing this trick. You’ve hidden your cards well!” Elder Jiu Yin was shocked, angry, and even a bit afraid.

Things were increasingly slipping out of his control.

The composure and confidence he once had were no longer very certain.

His tricks, which he regarded as powerful, were one by one being negated by his enemy.

“To keep you here requires concealing my methods deep. This Spirit Trapping Formation is a special gift prepared by Deputy City Lord Bai for you, Elder Jiu Yin. Now you can accept it,” Deputy City Lord Bai once again engaged in fierce battle with Elder Jiu Yin inside the formation.

Even though he hadn’t gained much of an advantage, with the Taiyin Yaoyao no longer entangling and gnawing at him, Deputy City Lord Bai had already gained the upper hand.

Moreover, Qin Niu held Elder Jiu Yin’s lifebound mystical creature, ready to deliver a heavy blow to Elder Jiu Yin at any time.

That moment would also mark Elder Jiu Yin’s end.

Elder Jiu Yin was clearly aware of the danger he was in. He fired a signal flare straight into the sky.

Even in daylight, the green light it emitted was still dazzling.

Qin Niu, speeding away into the distance, saw the signal flare rising from the Spirit Trapping Formation and immediately realized that Elder Jiu Yin was calling for help from the outside world.

Surviving for many years in this merciless world and cultivating to the Spirit Qi Realm naturally meant he had a few last-ditch life-saving methods.

Elder Jiu Yin was at least considered a number three, if not a number two figure in the Nine Insect Gang.

Qin Niu burst into a household in the town.

“Who are you? What do you want to do?”

This family, including both old and young, with two young women hiding behind them, had their bags packed and looked ready to flee at a moment’s notice.

“I am Insect Master Qin Niu; there’s no need for alarm. I merely wish to borrow your stove. You two, come help me light a fire.”

Qin Niu brandished the Fish Talisman and pressed into service those two young women to help him make fire on the spot.

He had summoned those two women to help, not because he harboured any improper thoughts.

According to his understanding, countrywomen were often adept at kitchen tasks. These two young women would be nimble and able to quickly start a roaring fire for him.

Moreover, women were more timid and thus easier to control.

“Master Qin, Master Qin, this one is my daughter, and this is my concubine, please show mercy and spare them! If it’s silver money you want, I can give it to you,” pleaded the owner of the house, a wealthy man in his fifties.

He was of similar status to Wang Furen, considered as someone with modest wealth.

The daughter and the concubine were not far apart in age and evidently knew how to enjoy life.

In any era, as long as one had money, life could be quite comfortable.

Qin Niu had no time to explain further to the old man.

“Cut the chatter, just have them help with the fire. I don’t intend to mistreat them. If you prattle on, don’t blame me for slaughtering you,” he said sternly.

Qin Niu flashed his Ink Blade, a menacing look on his face.

The two women and children screamed in fright, shaking all over.

Ordinary civilians hardly had any rights before the powerful and were subject to arbitrary manipulation.

“Hurry up.”

With another intimidating shout from Qin Niu, the two women, weeping and wailing, led the way to the kitchen at the back.

The male owner gritted his teeth and then relented; he wanted to fight, but he was also somewhat afraid of dying.

He could only watch helplessly as Qin Niu entered the kitchen and didn’t dare to follow.

Fortunately, Qin Niu was not a villain like Wang Haikun. Otherwise, this entire family would have been in serious trouble today.

Under his order, the two women quickly lit a fierce fire.

I hey were terrified, unsure if Qin Niu would commit violence against them.

Thankfully, Qin Niu focused on taking out two Metal Bug Canisters and heating them over the fire.

“Keep the fire burning strongly, or don’t blame me for being impolite,” he warned.

The two women repeatedly agreed, their fear palpable.

Meanwhile, the male owner, having seen Qin Niu forcing his concubine and daughter into the kitchen without returning, felt like he wanted to die.

Gathering his courage, he peeked into the kitchen at the back.

He could see his concubine and daughter tending the fire and that they had not been harmed, which allowed him to breathe a slight sigh of relief.

About half an hour later, Qin Niu realized that the king insects in the bug canisters were resistant to the fire and had not died completely.

He had no choice but to continue roasting them.

He didn’t dare to open the bug canisters, as the insects would immediately escape.

Thus, after another half an hour or so, the king insects’ bodies finally stopped moving.

Yet, he didn’t allow himself to relax and kept roasting them.

Within the Spirit Trapping Formation, Elder Jiu Yin suddenly let out a cry of pain and left a wide opening in his defense.

Vice City Lord Bai seized the moment and did not hesitate.

He unsheathed his sword and slashed at him.

But two bodyguards blocked the attack.

Elder Jiu Yin wailed, “Woe is me! My king insects have been killed by that brat… Oh, the hatred!”

One could imagine the blow it was to Elder Jiu Yin to have his king insects, which he had painstakingly raised for years, killed.

More urgent crises awaited him now.

His spirit greatly damaged again, Elder Jiu Yin could barely stand up. Staggering, he was unable to continue fighting. His two bodyguards were strong, but they were certainly no match for Vice City Lord Bai.

If reinforcements didn’t arrive in time, Elder Jiu Yin would not escape his fate today..
