Chapter 424: Chapter 416 Valley of Wronged Spirits_1
“Where does she know that the Green Demon Bee, after several rounds of breeding by the Green Demon and Qin Niu, is already against the heavens. It was originally used to deal with Immortal Masters.”
“And she’s just a strong fighter in the Innate Realm, it would be a wonder if she wasn’t killed instantly in front of the Green Demon Bee.”
“You won disgracefully,” she said through gritted teeth, “because I didn’t expect you to launch a sneak attack with that strange bee.”
However, her face was a bit feverish, luckily she was wearing a fox-face mask.
But one could still see the redness of her ears.
This was also her last bit of stubbornness.
“To think you’re still a close attendant to a Gang Leader, where battling the enemy involves life and death in a moment’s thought. Who would be so foolish as to discuss rules and martial morality with you?”
Qin Niu sneered at her remarks.
“Hmph, a sneak attack is disgraceful nonetheless.”
She huffed, but didn’t continue to dwell on this topic.
“As a noble of the Black Tiger Gang and an Insect Master, Master Qin watches the Black Tiger Gang struggle desperately against the enemy but is unwilling to rush to the front. Aren’t you afraid of becoming the laughingstock of the world?”
“I truly wonder how you’ve managed to grow up. Will the laughter of others make you lose a single hair? Does a real strong person care about the gaze and opinions of others? I suggest you fall in love at least once, and make your way through society, otherwise, your thoughts are as naive as those of a two or three-year-old child,” Qin Niu was not insulting her, but merely stating the facts.
“Follow me!”
Having said that, he leapt down from the tree and, taking Green Ox, ran towards the front left.
“Wrong, you’re going in the wrong direction. That way is where the two armies are clashing.”
Ye Ji mounted her horse and called out repeatedly from behind.
“It’s not wrong, this is the direction. Keep up.”
After Qin Niu spoke, he ignored her and continued racing forward.
His speed reached its peak under the full use of the Misty Rain Elusive Step.
Faster even than the white horse she rode.
Ye Ji followed behind, not believing his nonsense at all.
The direction where the two armies were fighting was clearly to the right front, yet Qin Niu was running towards the left front, obviously intentionally avoiding the frontline.
More than half an hour later, Qin Niu stopped in front of a mountain valley.
The valley was extremely narrow and stretched deep into the mountains.
The Black Tiger Gang’s terrains were characterized by mountains on one side, and flat land on the other.
Grey miasma could be seen rising from afar, shrouding the entire valley.
At this moment, numerous insects were descending into the valley from the sky.
More insects were continuously flying out from the depths of the valley. They were identical to the ones descending, but upon flying out, their bodies appeared significantly darker in color.
Qin Niu stood outside the valley, watching the large number of insects in the sky fall into the valley, his eyebrows deeply furrowed.
It was only at this moment that Ye Ji understood that Qin Niu had been observing for so long to determine the location where the insect swarm was falling.
She had mistaken Qin Niu for a deserter, but now she realized her misjudgment and felt quite embarrassed.
“This place is so secluded, what exactly does the Nine Insect Gang want by letting the insect swarm enter this valley?”
Qin Niu seemed to be talking to himself, but also seemed to be asking Ye Ji who had caught up.
“This valley is known as the Valley of Wronged Spirits, a notorious place of misfortune. Local villagers dare not enter. Anyone who enters the valley rarely comes out alive. Although locals say that vengeful spirits and fierce ghosts in the valley eat people, the real cause of death for those who enter are the terrifying poisonous miasmas inside.”
Ye Ji appeared to be very familiar with the situation of this valley, which surprised Qin Niu.
“You seem quite familiar with the terrain here!”
Qin Niu could naturally see that the valley was shrouded in poisonous miasma.
“As attendants to the Gang Leader, aside from the necessary training, familiarizing ourselves with the terrain of various locations of the Black Tiger Gang is also compulsory. Because we might encounter danger anywhere while protecting the Gang Leader, we must know the terrain well in order to ensure a quick evacuation. Especially with dangerous and treacherous places, it is crucial to remember them well,”
Perhaps feeling a bit guilty, she explained in great detail.
Qin Niu nodded, “Miss Ye Ji, have you ever entered this valley?”
