Chapter 439: Chapter 431 The Terrifying Buffalo Midges_1

Any discerning person could see that the Nine Insects Gang Leader used a beauty trap, but was the Shennong Sect Leader really that foolish?

Qin Niu felt that there must be some unknown mystery here.

It’s undeniable, the fact that the Nine Insects Gang Leader could make the Shennong Sect Leader compliantly cooperate with just a sworn sister was indeed a clever tactic.

Qin Niu gazed at the beauty on a red date horse, wielding a longsword. Her figure was graceful and her face was delicate, she did have some charm.

To say she was especially stunning, a beauty that could cause the downfall of a country, would be a far stretch.

At least by Qin Niu’s standards, she was just alright, not as enchanting as Tang Caixian, and even less comparable to Wang Wanyan.

He really didn’t know what Pan Jianjun saw in her.

Logically, with Pan Jianjun’s status and cultivation level, what kind of beauty couldn’t he find?

He could even take a new bride every night without any trouble.

“These Shennong Sect warriors are a bit lousy! If it weren’t for the support of the Nine Insects Gang’s warriors, they would probably have been directly routed.”

Qin Niu scanned the battlefield and held the Shennong Sect’s military strength in slight contempt.

He wondered if it was because they rarely fought, lacking combat experience, or because the Shennong Sect’s people were too accustomed to a rich and comfortable life. When they went into battle, they inherently lacked the blood and courage necessary.

As a result, they appeared loose and disarrayed, each either timid and greedy for life, or indecisive, not showing enough bravery or ruthlessness.

On the battlefield, often a misjudgment could cost a life.

Those Shennong Sect warriors, when clashing with the enemy and clearly needing to make a decisive move, they hesitated, and thus squandered opportunities. In the end, they were slain by the Black Tiger Gang’s warriors.

When it was time to charge into battle, they only shouted but didn’t charge.

Just now, Qin Niu saw a Shennong Sect warrior clashing with a Black Tiger Gang warrior, and the Shennong warrior lost his left arm to his opponent’s blade. If he had been calm and ruthless enough, he could have taken off the Black Tiger Gang Warrior’s head with one stroke.

But after the Shennong Sect warrior’s arm was cut off, he retreated in panic and ran away.

In the end, he was shot in the back by an arrow from the Black Tiger Gang warrior and fell to the ground.

It must be said, it was truly pathetic.

On the battlefield, the more one fears death, the faster death comes.

“Master He Shan, I think there’s no need for us to bother with the Shennong Sect anymore. After the Black Knights’ sweep, they’ve become like scattered sand, unable to form a proper battle formation for a charge. I estimate it won’t be long before they are defeated one by one, ending in either complete annihilation or massive rout.”

Even with limited battlefield experience, Qin Niu could see that the Shennong Sect’s army could no longer make any significant waves.

Master He Shan had far more experience in war and saw things even more clearly.

“Master Qin has an insightful eye, a natural talent for leadership. It truly is a pity that you haven’t chosen to enlist in the military. You should consider becoming an officer, I believe you would certainly achieve great things,” said Master He Shan.

His words were not mere pleasantries, but sincere sentiments.

Qin Niu had saved his life, and the two shared a good relationship. He genuinely hoped Qin Niu would have even better prospects.

“Becoming an officer? Forget it. I’m naturally used to being free and unrestrained; I can’t stand those constraints. Being a commander requires responsibility in every aspect, I couldn’t even have a female companion by my side, dealing daily with military affairs or fighting on the battlefield, that’s not the life I want,” Qin Niu shook his head.

Had he desired to be an official, he needn’t have waited until now.

He still liked living in Shuangfeng Village, leading the peaceful life of a landlord with his wives and concubines.
