Chapter 436: Chapter 428: High-Level Showdown_1

“Seventeen warriors unfortunately got venom in their eyes and were blinded on the spot. After being poisoned, taking Detoxification Pills was completely ineffective. I specifically inquired with Chairman Li and Master He Shan about what kind of insects these were, with such powerful venom. It turns out that these insects had absorbed toxic miasma in the Valley of Wronged Spirits, no wonder the Detoxification Pills were ineffective.”

The Valley of Wronged Spirits is known to be an extremely dangerous place; almost all the senior members of the gang are aware of it.

They are even more aware of the terror of the toxic miasma in the valley.

“Now the number of those stealth-winged insects is not many, and the damage caused to our army is not significant. But if there were tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of them, our soldiers would lose their fighting capacity in an instant. Master Qin discovered the gathering point of those insects, and there’s no time to lose—we must immediately dispatch troops to the Valley of Wronged Spirits to exterminate those poisonous insects.”

Vice Gang Leader Bai is very afraid that those stealth-winged insects will increase in number.

“Hehe, Gang Leader Bai, rest assured! Master Qin has already dealt with all those stealth-winged insects. There weren’t just tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of them but two to three hundred million.”

Ye Ji actually laughed out loud in such a serious military discussion, which was quite inappropriate.

Yet, every high-ranking member of the Black Tiger Gang did not blame her; instead, they all heaved sighs of relief and smiled with a sense of fortunate triumph.

“Is this true? There were actually two to three hundred million of them? The Nine Insect Gang is too powerful, far too powerful. If so many stealth-winged insects were to fly in the sky simultaneously, spraying venom, our Black Tiger Gang would be doomed. Gang Leader, you were wise to call Master Qin Niu out of retirement, and you did so just in time.”

Gongsun Jin took the opportunity to flatter the Black Tiger Gang Leader.

Being able to become a confidant of the Gang Leader naturally means he has special abilities.

“I can’t imagine, the Nine Insect Gang can control two to three hundred million stealth-winged insects, their Insect Masters are not ordinary in strength.”

Vice Gang Leader Bai followed with a relieved mutter to himself.

“Good, very good! Master Qin is young and promising, and as soon as he emerged from retirement, he has made a tremendous contribution to our gang, averting a crisis invisibly. Clerk, mark down the merits for Master Qin, and we will discuss rewards after the war is over.”

The Black Tiger Gang Leader was very pleased when he heard this.

His gaze toward Qin Niu softened even more.

Compared to such a significant feat, what does it matter that Qin Niu killed a few people on the street?

“One man’s success is built on the skeleton of many others.”

In the eyes of these higher-ups, they only value interests.

“He Shan, hurry and introduce the specific details of the insect battle to Master Qin!”

“Very well!”

Master He Shan was envious in his heart—this Brother Qin Niu, he didn’t know how he entered the Valley of Wronged Spirits.

The toxic miasma in the valley is said to be overwhelmingly dominant, to the extent that even Immortal Masters dared not easily venture in. It was said that once an Immortal Master from the Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect came down for an inspection, and after just coming into contact with the miasma in the valley, he had to recuperate on-site for half a month.

Qin Niu was able to enter the valley and exterminate hundreds of millions of stealth-winged insects, a feat which he himself felt unequal to.

He carefully introduced the specifics of the battlefield to Qin Niu and also discussed where the Black Tiger Gang’s insect masters were falling short.

Qin Niu listened quietly throughout.

At that moment, dull drumbeats and the sound of bugles resonated from the battlefield.

The expressions of the high-ranking members in the tent changed slightly, “This is bad, the enemy has sounded the charge once more; they are launching the sixth attack. We must immediately go out and command the army to resist the enemy.”

After the Black Tiger Gang Leader spoke, he raised his eyes to look at Qin Niu.

“True heroes are often young, Master Qin, show your abilities to the fullest. Iron Tiger, Ye Ji, from now on, you are to stay close and ensure Master Qin’s safety, ready for his command, and leniency will not be tolerated.”

“By your command!”

Ye Ji and Iron Tiger responded in unison.

“Thank you for your concern, Gang Leader!”

Qin Niu bowed in thanks.

Being a first-class noble, things like kneeling in gratitude were unnecessary.

“He Shan, Qin Niu, join me in battle!”

Bai Xuezhu called out to the two, put on his helmet, and left the central military tent.

Qin Niu followed out of the tent, only to see the battlefield was already filled with dust and the earth-shattering cries of combat. The sheer murderous aura of armored warfare is hard to comprehend without being on the battlefield.

To the front left of the battlefield, one beast after another let out piercing screams, and the defensive forces of the Black Tiger Gang showed clear signs of collapse.

Vice Gang Leader Bai’s eyes sharpened. “The Nine Insect Gang’s main insect masters have made another move; let’s hurry over.”

Qin Niu and He Shan swiftly followed behind him.
