Chapter 300: Chapter 293 Feeding Bees with Blood_1

When he dragged himself home, the wound on his hand had swelled significantly and turned black.

It was one of his uncles who had summoned a Pharmacist to treat the poison, saving his life. It was after that bite that his right hand became somewhat deformed, and what was worse, he was left with the aftereffects of facial paralysis and a limping gait.

After this, the thought of taking another girl as his bride was pretty much out of the question.

Lying on his rickety bed, Elder Jiu Yin sighed deeply, cursing the thieving heavens and lamenting the unfairness of his fate.

It was then that he discovered a cockroach looking for food in a corner of the wall, providing companionship in his days of hardship.

He deliberately tossed some scraps of food onto the floor every day for no other reason than to have the cockroach keep him company.

Because lying in bed alone was just too lonely.

Not even someone to talk to.

Now at least he had a cockroach for company.

Perhaps it was because he fed it every day that the cockroach gradually became much bolder.

Watching the cockroach, Elder Jiu Yin had a moment of inspiration and decided to tame it as a pet.

It seemed to be fated, for he tamed the cockroach with astonishing ease.

In his life, he now had his first pet.

From then on, he was never alone, as he had the cockroach for company every day.

As cockroaches are omnivorous, Elder Jiu Yin, after taming it, started deliberately killing some of the spiders in the house to feed it in order to help it grow stronger.

Latter, when a gecko came in search of food, Elder Jiu Yin also killed it, using it to feed the cockroach.

From then on, Elder Jiu Yin would kill any small animal or insect that entered his room to feed the cockroach.

He poured all his efforts into raising the cockroach.

The cockroach did not let him down and, after eating these slightly better-quality foods, it evolved directly from a Grade Two female to Grade Three.

This delighted Elder Jiu Yin tremendously.

After achieving the title of Insect Master, his status and destiny were completely transformed.

He then showed extraordinary talent in the way of rearing insects.

And not long after he gained the status of Insect Master, a beautiful young girl whose family was poor was married off to him with his uncle acting as a go-between, and the two of them tied the knot.

Elder Jiu Yin was on top of the world, and his days finally had hope.

Latter, utilizing the strong reproductive abilities of the cockroach, he made a name for himself in the insect fighting tournaments. He was appreciated by an elder of the Nine Insect Gang and taken in as a nominal disciple.

However, due to the chaotic management and backward thinking of the Nine Insect Gang,

that elder took a fancy to Elder Jiu Yin’s beautiful wife and ultimately forced himself upon her using despicable means.

Meanwhile, Elder Jiu Yin’s wife was already more than five months pregnant.

With a fierce temperament, she left a bloodstained letter and hung herself that very night.

Elder Jiu Yin was overwhelmed with grief and faced a choice: confront the elder immediately to seek justice for his wife,

or after careful consideration, he chose to bide his time.

The next day, when the master asked about his wife’s suicide, Elder Jiu Yin publicly cursed her for being ungrateful, saying her death was well-deserved.

He also said that if he took another wife in the future, if his master liked her, he could have her anytime.

As he spoke these words, Elder Jiu Yin’s heart bled.

But there was no choice, he had to endure it; otherwise, not only would he be unable to avenge her, but his master could also easily kill him.

The disparity in power between them was too great.

Not until sixty-seven years later did Elder Jiu Yin’s strength become sufficiently powerful.

He also unexpectedly acquired a celestial script detailing gu techniques.

Seizing the opportunity, he poisoned his master, hacked off his limbs, and then used him to feed insects. And not just that, he humiliated all of his master’s female relatives in front of him and sold them into a brothel.

Having avenged his great injustice, he finally dared to build a grave for his late wife to mourn and comfort her spirit.

Qin Niu, after reading about Elder Jiu Yin’s early history of vengeance, felt a mix of emotions.

Morality is very important.

If one acts immorally, sooner or later one will suffer a terrible fate and even bring disaster upon one’s family.
