Chapter 285: Chapter 278: Resurgence of Gu Techniques? 1
He believed that the death of the leader worm would undoubtedly deal another heavy blow to Elder Jiu Yin. If Vice City Lord Bai could seize the opportunity, he had every capability to deliver a fatal strike and directly kill Elder Jiu Yin.
By then, Qin Niu would be able to rest easy.
He had just run less than a hundred meters forward when suddenly a tremendous explosion was heard from ahead, shaking the earth and rocking the mountains, shaking the tiles off the roofs of nearby residences.
The window lattices creaked.
Such a terrifying force of explosion could not possibly be caused by an expert of the Innate Realm.
Qin Niu’s heart sank slightly, guessing that Elder Jiu Yin might have used some life-saving measures.
This was not good news.
If this person escaped and recovered his strength, Qin Niu would undoubtedly be the first he slaughtered.
Killing so many of Elder Jiu Yin’s life-linked insects, this enmity was even deeper than that of killing one’s father.
“Bai Xuezhu, I will surely slaughter your entire family, defile your wife and daughters, and dig out your ancestral grave.”
The voice of Elder Jiu Yin, filled with endless resentment, rose up.
Qin Niu sensed trouble.
Indeed, at the level of Elder Jiu Yin, there were many life-saving methods; he was not that easy to kill.
Even though Vice City Lord Bai had resorted to using the Spirit Trapping Formation, his ultimate measure, he still failed to capture Elder Jiu Yin.
By the time Qin Niu arrived at the battlefield, he saw a huge crater on the ground, the deepest part surpassing two meters in depth.
One could imagine just how terrifying the explosion had been.
Vice City Lord Bai’s armor was shattered, his body covered in blood, with blood still dribbling from the corner of his mouth.
Around him, numerous soldiers lay in pools of blood.
Master He Shan’s Double-Headed Lion was also severely injured.
It lay there, breathing heavily.
Master He Shan himself had his eyes tightly closed, blood around his mouth, his entire body nearly in a state of unconsciousness.
“Master He Shan, Master He Shan!”
Qin Niu stepped forward to check and provide assistance.
Manipulating the acupoint was of no use.
He placed his hand on Master He Shan’s back and transferred a thread of his powerful energy. Master He Shan coughed up two mouthfuls of black blood and then slowly came to.
“Qin Niu, thank you.”
Master He Shan’s voice was weak
“Just now, two of Elder Jiu Yin’s Spirit Qi Realm attendants self-destructed, breaking Lord Bai’s Spirit Trapping Formation. Because I was close by, I was also injured in the explosion. Spirit Qi Realm experts, such an enviable state, terrifying as such.”
Although he was quite seriously injured, he could still speak and his energy was continuous, indicating he would not die.
No wonder the sound earlier was so loud; it turned out that two Spirit Qi Realm experts had self-destructed simultaneously.
Being able to cultivate to the Spirit Qi Realm, one in a hundred thousand could achieve it.
It was extremely difficult.
Yet those two attendants were willing to sacrifice their own lives to help Elder
Jiu Yin escape, showing their extreme loyalty to him.
Qin Niu was quite envious; he also wanted such loyal attendants.
At present, he only had Xiao Qing as a maidservant.
The relationship between master and servant was deep, but Xiao Qing’s cultivation level was subpar.
“Those two attendants possessed such cultivation and were willing to self-destruct; their loyalty and bravery are indeed admirable.”
Qin Niu remarked with emotion.
“Hmph, do you think those two attendants did it willingly? Before they self-destructed, their eyes were blood-red and they showed painful expressions on their faces. It’s very likely they were being controlled by that old bastard Jiu Yin.”
Vice City Lord Bai had presumably finished healing, he turned his head to look over.
Qin Niu’s praise of the two attendants’ bravery clearly annoyed him.
