But Old Master Huang stopped not far in front of the woman, simply not daring to move forward recklessly.

“It seems you are determined to force me into a final confrontation. I will slaughter everyone in Shuangfeng Village, set fire to your house, and destroy your home. Then I’ll find you and slowly kill you. I’ll count to three, and this is your last chance. If you’re willing to come out, we can shake hands and make peace, and these ten thousand silver notes will all be yours. From then on, we’ll stay out of each other’s way.

Three.

Two.

One…”

When Old Master Huang got to one, he drew out the tone.

However, he clearly underestimated Qin Niu’s psychological strength, as he wasn’t affected by the threats and didn’t show himself at all.

Nor did he make any noise.

“I see you now, haha, go to hell!”

With those words, eighty or ninety Corpse Bees swiftly pounced forward.

The spot they attacked was about two meters away from where Qin Niu was hiding—this was already very close.

Qin Niu thought he had been discovered, but having fought Old Master Huang so many times, he understood the man’s temperament.

So he still hid his form, held his breath, and remained motionless.

The confidence he had came from the King Pig Leather Armor he wore.

Even if he were found, he could only activate the armor to defend himself and then try to get close to Old Master Huang to kill him with a single slash.

Currently, his Ink Blade could emit Blade Qi, the King Pig Leather Armor could produce a defensive Light Cocoon when powered by cultivation, and he had other cards up his sleeve—his Acquired Realm second layer cultivation, Slash Martial Skill, Sweeping Martial Technique, etc.—all of which had not been exposed.

At a critical moment, these would serve to deal with Old Master Huang.

Normally, Insect Masters were only strong through the insects they cultivated; their own cultivation and combat power tended to be weak.

But Qin Niu was a rare exception.

Besides powerful insects, his own strength was always his foundation.

A large group of Corpse Bees rushed toward the patch of bushes next to them.

They discovered nothing.

In turn, Qin Niu was disgusted by this.

As he had guessed, Old Master Huang had simply tried to bluff him.

In fact, he hadn’t discovered Qin Niu’s hiding place at all.

“Fourth, quickly lead the ant swarm to control five more.”

Qin Niu would not let such a good opportunity slip away.

He secretly took control of five Corpse Bees.

“Let them kill that old man.”

After the bees swarmed and missed, they automatically flew back to Old Master Huang’s side.

They were like a group of loyal guards.

Only now, five of them were under Qin Niu’s mental control via the ant swarm, essentially like puppets.

“Kill!”

The five controlled Corpse Bees suddenly pounced on Old Master Huang.

But when they were about a foot away from Old Master Huang, they stopped advancing.

“Hmm?”

Old Master Huang noticed the abnormality and twisted his head to see five Corpse Bees lunging at him; he was momentarily stunned.

“Ah Niu, what a clever trick. I never expected you could control my Corpse Bees so stealthily. Do you have any idea how difficult it is to cultivate these Corpse Bees? You’ll never know. My own insects, even if controlled by you, would never attack me.”

His voice carried a hint of pride and satisfaction.

Why did those five seemingly aggressive Corpse Bees stop when they got within a foot of Old Master Huang?

Qin Niu was puzzled.

It indicated that Old Master Huang must have something formidable on him to prevent the Corpse Bees from turning on him.

Seeing that the attack on Old Master Huang was unsuccessful, Qin Niu had the ant swarm direct the five Corpse Bees to attack their peers.

The plan now was simply to find ways to deplete the enemy’s forces.

And to drag out the time as much as possible.

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.
