Chapter 579 - Sequence of Explosions (1/2)
Everyone could only see the remaining Celestial-Devouring Insects gathering around Qin Nan’s feet at a crazy pace as if they were sending their regards to their king.
In addition to the Second Prince Song Li, the Third Prince, Long Hu, Jiang Bilan, and Yao Ji were stunned as well.
Why had the Celestial-Devouring Insects stopped eating the Dragon Abyss Tree and gathered around Qin Nan all of a sudden?
What were they trying to do?
“Duan Qing, what are you thinking? We are trying to eliminate the Celestial-Devouring Insects, what are you…” Song Li collected his thoughts and snapped.
However, his voice was interrupted straight away.
“Silence!”
Qin Nan did not even glimpse at him.
Upon discovering that the Chaos Qi was effective against the Celestial-Devouring Insects, he immediately withdrew over nine hundred streams of Chaos Qi and scattered them around him. He was not disappointed by the outcome, as the Celestial-Devouring Insects immediately devoured the Chaos Qi impatiently.
“That’s over nine hundred streams of Chaos Qi, please don’t be a waste…”
Qin Nan clenched his teeth and shut his eyes, as he began to guide the Chaos Qi.
Although the Celestial-Devouring Insects had fully devoured the Chaos Qi, Qin Nan could still detect the presence of it inside their bodies, as it had yet to be refined.
“Explode!”
Qin Nan uttered a single word icily.
He selected ten of the streams and controlled them to explode inside the bodies of the Celestial-Devouring Insects.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
At that instant, the Celestial-Devouring Insects that possessed terrifying defense completely exploded, causing blood to splatter toward the surroundings.
Instant kill!
“One Dragon Abyss Fruit for you!”
The astonishment in the eyes of the Dragon Abyss Tree had yet to dissipate, but it did not hesitate to shoot a Dragon Abyss Fruit into Qin Nan’s hands.
The Second Prince, the Third Prince, and the rest were left speechless seeing this.
What on Earth...
Why did the Celestial-Devouring Insects explode? And ten of them at the same time? What exactly did Duan Qing do to them?
Countless doubts rose up in their minds like a surging tide.
This was apart from Jiang Bilan, who had soon recalled something after recovering from the astonishment.
Previously at Jianghuang City, over ten Emperor Weapons sold at the Ancient Dragon Auction had exploded in the same manner as the Celestial-Devouring Insects.
“So he was the one behind those explosions.”
Jiang Bilan mumbled to herself as an elegant smile appeared on her face.
Qin Nan held the Dragon Abyss Fruit in his hands. His eyes flickered with joy. His plan had worked!
“Third Prince, keep this!”
Qin Nan tossed the Dragon Abyss Fruit to the Third Prince, who unconsciously caught it in his hands. Upon collecting his thoughts, he immediately blurted out, “Duan Qing, this should be yours. I can’t take it——”
Before he could finish, Qin Nan interrupted, “It’s fine, since all the remaining Dragon Abyss Fruits will be ours too!”
Why did that sound so familiar!
The Third Prince and Longhu were startled, before they quickly came to a realization. Wasn’t that what the Second Prince had just said?
“You——”
The Second Prince became enraged seeing this, “Duan Qing! What the hell did you do? Why did the Celestial-Devouring Insects explode all of a sudden?”
“This is just the beginning!”
Qin Nan’s lips curled up into a grin, which caused Song Li’s heart to shudder as a bad feeling rose within it.
...Meanwhile, at the Emperor’s Audience Hall in the royal palace...
The expressions on the faces of the ministers froze after witnessing the Celestial-Devouring Insects exploding into pieces, allowing Qin Nan to be rewarded with a Dragon Abyss Fruit.
They too had the same confusion on their faces as Song Li and the others.
