This battle had yielded many insect corpses, including the body of a Grade Six Black Crowned Bow Coat, as well as a Sword Technique Manual and nearly two thousand taels of Silver Money, a bountiful harvest indeed.
Two thousand taels of Silver Money would take him a long time to earn with his abilities.
“Unexpected wealth does not make one rich.”
This kind of fortune from the deceased came without much effort.
When Qin Niu returned home, Xiao Qing was already preparing dinner.
There were no signs that anyone had broken into the house.
“It’s also time to retrieve the treasure of the Green Demon.”
Lately, crises abounded, and Qin Niu pondered inwardly.
He urgently needed to possess an incredibly powerful insect to ensure his own safety.
The number of Termites had surged dramatically after some time of cultivation.
The quantity of Grade Three ants was estimated to soon exceed ten thousand.
However, the later cultivated Termites, due to the limited supply of Thousand Eyes Tree Blood, could no longer be mass-produced with mental attack abilities like the Puppet Ants or Ghost Ants as before.
Taking seven to eight thousand Termites with him should pose no problem.
The number of bees was also increasing.
This included both the War Bees and the honey-making bees whose numbers had also grown substantially.
He planned to bring a few War Bees with him when the time came.
As for the ordinary Grade Two Green Ring Worker Bees, a small number would suffice. They had weaker combat capabilities, and against stronger bee species, bringing them would be like serving up an easy meal.
At night, he was practicing the Everlasting Spring Technique in the backyard.
Each herb was growing cheerfully, the veins on the leaves of the Dogtail Grass turning a deep purple.
Yet it had not bloomed.
Qin Niu thought to himself, even if a Dogtail Grass benefits from some fate, it’s still just a Dogtail Grass.
It couldn’t possibly turn into Spiritual Medicine or an Immortal Herb, could it?
As long as it didn’t wither, Qin Niu planned to continue nurturing it.
If there ever came a day when it underwent metamorphosis and breakthrough, that would be its own good fortune.
Deep in the night, he heard the sound of hooves on the road outside.
Listening carefully, it was very different from the sound of ordinary hooves.
The noise outside was much lighter, and the speed was extremely fast.
In the blink of an eye, it was gone.
Even a black steed at full gallop probably couldn’t match that speed. And he had heard the sound of a black steed’s hooves before—it was very heavy.
When it hit the ground, it was like the beating of war drums.
A thought flickered in Qin Niu’s mind—it was either a formidable wild beast that had come down from the mountains in search of food in the village, or a master had entered the village.
Formidable wild beasts from the mountains usually had a sense of spirit and would not easily enter human villages.
So as to avoid bringing disaster upon themselves.
It was likely that some powerhouse had ridden a high-grade mount into the village.
If it were an expert from the Black Tiger Gang, there would be no problem.
But if it were a master from the Nine Insect Gang investigating the murder of Wu Hao, that could be dangerous.
Qin Niu sat in the backyard, not daring to move.
The wisest course of action at this moment was to lower his presence and not attract attention.
He did not rashly run to the front yard or the roof to check.
Instead, after the sound of the hooves had faded, he immediately went back into the house and took the Ink Blade that had been soaked in Banyan Tree Blood.
He put on the King Pig Leather Armor and was ready to flee with Xiao Qing or confront a strong enemy at any moment.
Though his number of Termites was not small, and they were strong in combat, they were currently only suited for fighting against other insects. They had virtually no advantage against human opponents.
Unless used to deal with a common person like Xie Laizi.
But such an enemy could be killed by Qin Niu with a flick of his finger. Did he need the Termites to step in?
This was why he was so eager to obtain the treasure of the Green Demon.
Because the war records created by the Green Demon Bee were extremely impressive.
It had killed off the head of the Seven-Star Sect and, with its own strength, single-handedly challenged the entire sect, ultimately forcing the Seven-Star Sect to ask the Immortal Sect to intervene and slay it. This showed just how strong the Green Demon Bee was.
