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

Chapter 284: Chapter 277 One Person Changed the Entire Battlefield_1

Her tactics were also top-notch.

Although the situation arose suddenly, she was not led by the nose by the enemy.

“Judging from the direction of the signal flare, we can roughly deduce that Elder Jiu Yin is trapped in the Black Tiger Gang’s Jade Stream Town. Elder Mei, I need you to lead an elite crew to go and rescue him.”

Elder Mei was exactly the one who had just been most anxious to go on a rescue mission.

Sending him to the heart of the Black Tiger Gang to rescue someone, if the mission was successful, that would be best. If it failed, the Nine Insects Gang Leader would have effectively weakened the opposition’s forces, making her position as Gang Leader even more secure.

“Yes, my command!”

Elder Mei didn’t have a second word and directly went to select people for the mission.

After the Nine Insects Gang Leader wrote a letter, she still had Fei He take the encrypted message back.

She had been confronting the Black Tiger Gang for many days, testing them numerous times, but the Black Tiger Gang had always been deeply hidden. She couldn’t fathom their depth or shallowness.

This time, with Elder Jiu Yin trapped, the call within her gang to rescue him was extremely high.

She could only act opportunistically, deciding to have a direct, forceful confrontation with the Black Tiger Gang.

Across Wash Crime River, the Black Tiger Gang Leader led his top experts and a sizable army to garrison, always on guard against the Nine Insects Gang’s army crossing the river.

“Gang Leader, this is the latest battle report from Deputy City Lord Bai.”

The Black Tiger Gang Leader, dressed in commoner’s clothes and looking like an ordinary person, took the battle report to examine.

“Ha ha, truly heaven helps our gang! The Shennong Sect and Nine Insects Gang attempted a surprise attack across the Tianshui River, only to be discovered by a young Insect Master of our gang. Deputy City Lord Bai led troops to meet them in battle and, after two days of hard fighting, drove the enemy army to a crushing defeat, annihilating more than ten thousand of them.

Now, they’ve even trapped Elder Jiu Yin of the Nine Insects Gang in Jade Stream Town.

Elder Jiu Yin is one of the most powerful elders in the Nine Insects Gang, second only to the Nine Insects Gang Leader, with immense influence. If this man were to die on our Black Tiger Gang turf, it would deal a heavy blow to the Nine Insects Gang.

It could possibly discourage the Nine Insects Gang from ever invading us again.”

In his words, the Black Tiger Gang Leader was quite wary of the Nine Insects Gang.

Following the principle that harmony is most precious, he would avoid fighting with the Nine Insects Gang whenever possible.

“This is great! Such significant good news is truly exhilarating for our Black Tiger Gang.”

“Gang Leader, should we immediately send our top experts to Jade Stream Town to join forces with Deputy City Lord Bai to kill Elder Jiu Yin?”

The high-ranking members of the Black Tiger Gang, upon hearing this good news, were extremely thrilled.

“That young Insect Master who discovered such important enemy information has made a great contribution. To boost troop morale, I suggest the Gang Leader immediately bestow a reward upon him.”

Some, amidst their joy, suggested a generous reward for the young Insect Master who had detected the enemy’s intentions.

“Hmm, it is indeed necessary to heavily reward this Insect Master named Qin Niu. However, it’s better to wait until the battle at Deputy City Lord Bai’s side is over before giving out rewards together. The great service that Qin Niu has rendered may not be limited to this alone. Do you all remember the incident from more than ten days ago, when the Nine Insects Gang’s army was searching along the borders of Wash Crime River? That was because the enemy’s commander, Song Zan, was killed.

According to the information passed by our planted spy, Song Zan’s demise might be related to two traveling stowaways, a man and a woman.

Latter investigations by the Nine Insects Gang at the site of Song Zan’s death concluded that Song Zan was killed by an Innate Realm expert, likely to be an Insect Master.

Though the whereabouts of the young female stowaway remain unknown, she is not an Insect Master, and her cultivation has not reached the Innate Realm.

Therefore, the person who killed Song Zan is very likely that young Insect Master.

Although we can’t confirm that the young Insect Master is Qin Niu, judging from various clues, it is very likely to be him.

It’s indeed fortunate for our Black Tiger Gang to have such a talent!”

The Black Tiger Gang Leader’s intelligence was much stronger than imagined.

He had even planted spies within the Nine Insects Gang, clearly learning all of the enemy’s information.

Perhaps this was the earliest prototype of a spy!

“Elder Jiu Yin daring to break into the heartland of our Black Tiger Gang is like treating us as if we are nobody! Fang Lian, when it comes to the number of top experts, the Fang Family has the most! I want you to go to Jade Stream Town immediately, fully assist Deputy City Lord Bai in killing Elder Jiu Yin, and make no mistakes.”

The Black Tiger Gang Leader’s gaze turned to Fang Lian.

He was indeed a young master from the Fang Family.

Because his father was in seclusion for cultivation, he had already started to take on the heavy responsibilities of the Fang Family’s clan leadership.

The outbreak of the faction war caused these top-tier families to dispatch their experts to participate in the battle.

It was not only a great opportunity to earn military merit, but also to train their clan’s younger generation.

“Understood!”

Fang Lian was quite surprised when he heard Qin Niu’s name.

He had had several encounters with Qin Niu.

It was unexpected that in such a short time, Qin Niu had already advanced to become an Innate Realm powerhouse, a high-level expert just like him.

Back then, Qin Niu, in his eyes, was just a few-level expert that he could easily crush to death.

The rapidity of Qin Niu’s growth far exceeded his imagination.

Slain Elder Jiu Yin, that was unquestionably a colossal act of military merit.

Fang Lian was in dire need of such a great military exploit to solidify his position.

He led the Fang Family’s experts and quickly headed to Jade Stream Town.

Not long after Fang Lian left, a scout returned with news from the front.

“Gang Leader, the enemy force across Wash Crime River is setting up flying ropes to cross it.”

“Engage!”

The Black Tiger Gang Leader didn’t waste any words and simply said two.

“The Nine Insects Gang can’t hold back, launching a sudden attack—it seems they’ve learned that Elder Jiu Yin is trapped and want to dispatch troops for a rescue.”

“Haha, this is even better. Using Elder Jiu Yin as bait, we can severely damage the main force of the Nine Insects Gang in one fell swoop, securing at least a century of peaceful development.”

The Black Tiger Gang Leader laughed heartily, but did not mention leading the army into the battle.

On the Shennong Sect’s side, although they lost over ten thousand soldiers due to the sudden retreat of their incompetent allies, the alliance of the two factions was already bound together.

The Nine Insects Gang Leader commanded them to join forces in attacking the enemy, and the Shennong Sect, whether they liked it or not, had to comply.

Otherwise, if the Nine Insects Gang acted alone and ended up defeated, the Shennong Sect would certainly not fare well.

Firstly, the Nine Insects Gang would regard the Shennong Sect as traitors, as enemies.

They would definitely devise ways to deal with the Shennong Sect.

Secondly, if the Black Tiger Gang won the battle, they too would seek to settle accounts with the Shennong Sect.

The Shennong Sect was also like an arrow drawn on a bow; they had no choice but to release it.

Qin Niu was completely unaware that he, seemingly an insignificant figure, had triggered a massive change in the war among the three gangs.

At the moment, he had just killed the king insect and was contemplating when to feed it to the Ant Queen.

The two women who had helped him kindle the fire huddled in fear.

“Alright, here’s fifty Wen Money to reward you.”

Qin Niu casually threw a piece of Silver Piece and walked outside.

The male head of this family and the older female head watched Qin Niu with a mix of fear and hatred in their eyes.

“Don’t worry, I didn’t do anything to them, I just had them help me keep the fire going for over an hour.”

After giving an explanation, Qin Niu left the household.

He was considering whether to flee directly back to Shuangfeng Village or to take a look at the battlefield.

In the end, he decided to go and have a look.

With an Invisibility Talisman on his body, that was his greatest confidence..
