Immortality: Raising an Ant Queen to Cultivate by increasing stat points-Chapter 423 - 415 Bug Cloud _1

Chapter 423: Chapter 415 Bug Cloud _1

“You seem to take things very easily. In the world, there are three emotions that everyone should experience; otherwise, it’s not a complete life. Having never experienced love, even if you become an Immortal Master someday, you will have regrets, and it might even become a major flaw on your path to seeking immortality.”

Qin Niu wasn’t clear about what requirements were needed to become an Immortal Master.

However, in his view, friendship, love, and family affection were all very important.

After he got married, his understanding of love deepened a little more.

That gut-wrenching feeling, that haunting longing in dreams, and the warmth of a family, they were all the unique charms of love.

If he had to choose between love and cultivation, he would choose love.

Ye Ji looked at the young man before her, and her disdain for him lessened a little.

He was several years younger than her, yet he spoke with a sense of aged wisdom, and it was hard to dismiss what he was saying as unreasonable.

She could feel that Qin Niu’s understanding of life was more profound than hers.

“Right, you still haven’t told me why you always wear masks!”

Qin Niu asked.

“Wearing masks to hide our true identities is for the Gang Leader’s security. If someone knew what we look like, they could impersonate us and infiltrate the Gang Leader’s circle with unimaginable consequences. Also, if our faces were known, it would be easy to locate our families and thus threaten us into submission.”

Ye Ji explained the reason they couldn’t take off their masks.

It’s lonely at the top.

For someone like the Black Tiger Gang Leader, there was always the risk of assassination, poisoning, and even keeping one’s whereabouts a secret was necessary.

The personal attendants were an important protective force for the Gang Leader, but it was crucial to prevent them from being exploited by others.

The attendants could easily get close to the Gang Leader, and if they betrayed him, it was almost impossible to defend against.

As they were talking, the sky above them suddenly darkened.

Both of them looked up at the sky almost at the same time.

All they saw was a large expanse of dark clouds.

“That’s not right, those are insect clouds! All insects.”

Upon closer inspection, Qin Niu realized that the vast expanse of dark clouds was composed of countless insects.

They swarmed densely, flying across the sky.

“Master Qin, I’m afraid we can no longer rest. This swarm of insects is likely released by the Nine Insect Gang, which means our defense line might have already been breached. At least, we have already lost in the insect battle,”

Ye Ji’s tone was tinged with a trace of urgency.

As a personal attendant to the Gang Leader, she should be highly trusted by him.

The Black Tiger Gang Leader had specifically sent her to request Qin Niu’s help, and if they were delayed, and the Black Tiger Gang’s army was defeated, there would be no point.

“Miss Ye Ji, do not worry, let me observe a little longer.”

Qin Niu raised his hand over his head to create some shade and squinted at the swarm of insects in the sky.

Ye Ji did not know what he had in mind and was anxiously stamping her feet.

Yet this Master Qin was not in the slightest hurry, leisurely watching the swarm of insects in the sky.

Time was passing by rapidly.

An hour passed, then another…

Seeing that Qin Niu had been watching for nearly half an hour without any sign of leaving, Ye Ji became impatient.

“Master Qin, the situation at the front lines is urgent, our army is in peril, please do not delay any longer and set out for the front lines to assist immediately. I can assure you, as long as I’m breathing, I will ensure your safety.”

She thought Qin Niu must be afraid of dying in battle at the front lines.

That’s why he was deliberately delaying.

“No rush, let me look a little longer.”

Qin Niu had an indifferent expression like someone watching a fire from across the river, which infuriated Ye Ji to no end.

“Master Qin, I never thought you would be such a person! The front lines are about to be overrun, yet you’re not in any hurry and keep delaying. To put it bluntly, you’re just afraid of death, aren’t you? I’ve said it before, if there’s real danger, I’d sacrifice my life to ensure your safe retreat. If you keep dawdling, don’t blame me for looking down on you.”

Ye Ji was extremely angry.

The slight fondness and respect she had recently started to feel for Qin Niu vanished completely.

In the face of life and death, one’s true nature is most evident.

“It’s fine, you can just look down on me,” he said.

Unmoved, Qin Niu even climbed a tree to continue observing the swarm of insects.

The number of bugs in the sky was vast, and because they were far away, it was hard to make out what kind of insects they were.

They fluttered under the bright sun in the sky, circling non-stop.

Ye Ji was so furious that her teeth gnashed loudly, and her fists were so tightly clenched they seemed to wring out water, yet she was helpless against Qin Niu.

If someone doesn’t want to go, you can’t exactly tie them up and force them, can you?

She looked up at Qin Niu on the tree, flames of anger shooting from her eyes.

“If you don’t leave now, I’ll have no choice but to offend you.”

Ye Ji waited a while longer, but seeing that he still had no intention of heading to the front line, she understood clearly that Master Qin had no plans to support the front line at all.

Qin Niu ignored her, focusing instead on the swarm of insects in the sky.

Without saying a second word and with anger pent up inside, she leapt toward the tree intending to subdue Qin Niu with force.

Generally, even if an Insect Master reaches the Innate Realm, their combat strength is often weak.

As the close attendant of the Gang Leader, Ye Ji had exceptional combat ability. She was a ‘fighter jet’ among those in the Innate Realm, the elite of the elite.

Moreover, her cultivation level was a small realm higher than Qin Niu’s.

She was now in the Later Stage of the Innate Realm, while Qin Niu only had mid-stage Innate Realm cultivation. She was confident she could take Qin Niu down in one move and subdue him immediately.

Then, she would forcibly take him to the front line.

But as soon as she got close to Qin Niu, still about three meters away, she immediately felt an extremely intense threat of death.

A Green Demon Bee suddenly flew in front of her, lunging at her.

Its speed was so fast that it reached her ear in a flash. At the same time, as she heard the sound of the Green Demon Bee’s wings vibrating, her head felt dizzy and extremely irritated.

“Not good, this is a sonic attack.”

With her extensive combat experience, Ye Ji immediately realized this was a sonic attack from the mutant bee.

She quickly displayed an aura armor on her body and swung a Short Sword in defense.

Regrettably, her speed was much slower than the Green Demon Bee’s. frёewebηovel.cѳm

Before she could swing her Short Sword to cut down the Green Demon Bee, it had effortlessly pierced through her aura armor, lightly scratched her face, and then flew back to Qin Niu’s side.

Ye Ji’s face turned deathly pale, and her back was drenched in cold sweat.

If the bee had intended to harm her, she probably would have been stung already.

Not wanting to accept this defeat, as she had never suffered such a loss since her debut, she gritted her teeth and, with sword in hand, moved to launch another attack on Qin Niu.

“Still want to fight?”

Qin Niu turned to look at her, his eyes showing a hint of pity and a mocking attitude that drove her mad.

She felt utterly ashamed, having been bested by an insect.

Her supposed strength proved powerless in front of the ugly green mutant bee, and the outcome was decided in an instant.

Her aura armor seemed utterly useless in front of the Green Demon Bee.

This mutant bee was terrifying.
