Chapter 187 - Chapter 187: Chapter 182 Is This Called Despicable?_1 (2/2)
Dawn was approaching.
As soon as daylight broke, Qin Niu would have the advantage, fearless and dominant.
“Despicable!”
Old Master Huang watched as his five painstakingly cultivated Corpse Bees attacked five other Corpse Bees, engaging in a frenzy of fratricide.
This spectacle enraged him so much it felt as if his eyes were about to split and his heart was being sliced with a knife.
Qin Niu sneered in secret. Against a villain as sinister and ferocious as Old Master Huang, there was no need to talk about morality.
The more underhanded the method, the better.
“Ah Niu, you forced my hand.”
Old Master Huang was slowly making his way toward the location of the Bee General.
He seemed to know where the Bee General was hiding.
However, the old fellow was extremely cautious and cunning, not rushing to rescue immediately.
Every step he took was full of wariness.
When he was about five meters away from the hiding place of the Bee General, he stopped.
Then he detached an Insect Bag from his waist.
Whoosh!
He poured out the insects inside it directly.
These were centipedes.
Also known as millipedes, they could emit a toxic smell that was very discomforting to inhale and could even cause dizziness and nausea.
Each centipede was about the thickness of a chopstick, and there seemed to be two or three hundred of them.
Just looking at them was enough to make one’s skin crawl.
“Go! Release your poison gas as much as you like. Ah Niu, I know you must be hiding nearby, I have already sensed your presence.”
Upon Old Master Huang’s command, the centipedes immediately began to crawl in all directions.
Their crawling speed was fast.
At the same time, an unpleasant stench began to engulf the area.
Luckily, Qin Niu had the foresight to hide in the trees instead of on the ground.
Although the poisonous gas was nauseating, with his strong cultivation base at the second layer of the Acquired Realm, he could hold his breath for a minute or two without any problem.
The Everlasting Spring Technique was essentially a Life-Nurturing Technique, and while it might not be suitable for combat, it certainly had no issue in making the breath last long.
After releasing the centipedes, Old Master Huang closely monitored all activity around him.
A short while passed with no discoveries, and he finally became impatient.
He began to quickly approach the location of the Bee General.
His gaze also searched all around.
Because he simply couldn’t afford to delay.
The hidden Qin Niu was too cautious, from beginning to end not showing himself, just secretly competing with him and causing him to lose face.
When daylight came, he would be at an even greater disadvantage.
Hence, he took the risk to quickly seize the opportunity to rescue the trapped Bee General.
His calculations were indeed precise.
By releasing the poisonous centipedes, allowing them to release a large amount of toxic stench, he could ensure that a large area behind him was secure.
With seventy to eighty Corpse Bees guarding him, his safety was well assured.
Seeing that Qin Niu just wouldn’t show himself, he guessed that Qin Niu probably didn’t dare to confront him head-on.
It was with this in mind that he only needed to find the Bee General, and he could rescue it.
“Hmph, petty tricks. Hiding my Bee General underground, don’t think I don’t know. Playing these games with me, you’re still too green.”
With that, Old Master Huang actually took out a black Serpent-shaped Sword and used it to start digging at the target’s location.
Qin Niu watched anxiously as the enemy refused to step over the line even by half a step.
If the three Bee Generals were rescued by Old Master Huang, it would be akin to giving a tiger wings.
By then, Qin Niu would be even less of a match for him.
Although he had prepared some measures, he wasn’t sure they would work against an old hand like Old Master Huang.
Watching Old Master Huang dig quickly and about to uncover the Insect Jar, Qin Niu bit his lip and decided to use the ambush he had prepared.
