Chapter 274: Chapter 267: Teammate Like a Pig Leading to Doom_1

It seems that burning them with fire is quite effective.

Because the more anxious it gets, the more serious the damage it suffers.

As the half of the Taiyin Yaoyao in this jar gradually got roasted, the other half of its body trapped in another metal canister was suddenly enveloped in a wisp of ash-grey mist.

Qin Niu sensed something was amiss.

He quickly put that canister over the fire to roast as well.

Under the intense fire, the ash-grey mist dissipated bit by bit. This half of the

Taiyin Yaoyao also began to desperately struggle and move around.

Its body underwent some changes in a very short time.

At the cut wound, there were signs of healing, and the body seemed to be

shrinking.

An old shell appeared on its surface.

Was it trying to molt and transform into a new, whole life?

Qin Niu, with some experience in identifying and cultivating insects, immediately realized that upon sensing its other half nearing death, it decisively chose to molt in order to become a new, complete life.

Once that happened, it would no longer need its other half.

The capabilities of these Taiyin Yaoyao were too strong.

Qin Niu felt his knowledge expand, which would also provide a good reference for his future cultivation of Termite and Green Demon Bee.

To kill these Taiyin Yaoyao, both halves had to be destroyed together.

Otherwise, once the other half molted into a whole new life, it would likely be uncontrollable.

At the very least, it had already been proven that an Insect Bag couldn’t contain

a complete Taiyin Yaoyao.

They possessed a very strong ability to escape.

Furthermore, after molting into a complete new life, their strength should weaken correspondingly.

Roughly after a quarter of an hour, the Taiyin Yaoyao in both metal bug canisters stopped moving. Their legs curled up slightly, their antennae bent a little, and their wings were half-open.

The cut surface of their bodies was no longer enveloped in the gray mist.

Judging by this, they should be dead.

Qin Niu was still somewhat uneasy, so he shook the canisters, but they made no more movement.

It appeared that the method of burning them to death was efficacious.

Once Qin Niu confirmed that both halves of this Taiyin Yaoyao were dead, he applied the same method to the second one.

Only sixty li from Luoshui Town, in a wide open space, heavy fog had enveloped the area for close to three days and nights. Vice City Lord Bai had been waging battle here with a large army against the enemy forces, fighting ferociously.

The battle was at a deadlock.

Because the enemy had formidable insects aiding them and had created the fog that obstructed vision, Black Tiger City’s side did not gain any advantage.

They even began to show signs of falling into a disadvantageous position.

Both sides suffered heavy casualties; it was a bloody conflict where it was either kill or be killed.

Vice City Lord Bai, leading the warriors from Black Tiger City, clenched his teeth and held on stubbornly.

He was very clear that they absolutely could not lose this battle.

If they were defeated, the enemy would march straight through, and all the important towns in the rear would fall under the enemy’s claws and bloodied maws.

However, the enemy had formidable Insect Masters providing support, and

Black Tiger City’s Insect Masters were also giving their all but still seemed to be slightly outmatched, which was very troubling.

The moment Qin Niu burned the first Taiyin Yaoyao to death, a scream came from within the fog, and the fog churned violently.

“This… Impossible, impossible! How could anyone kill my Taiyin Yaoyao? they are impervious to swords and spears, fast as lightning; who could have killed them? There’s no way the Black Tiger Gang has such a powerful Insect Master!”

Elder Jiu Yin was roaring, raging in anger.

Each Taiyin Yaoyao was his painstakingly nurtured darling.

Now that someone had killed one, it being his vital insect, his soul was severely damaged.

Even the Insect King was greatly affected.

“Haha, heaven is truly on our side! Elder Jiu Yin’s Taiyin Yaoyao has been killed.
