Capítulo 568: Chapter 568: The Revolting Red Scorpion Queens
Feng Bailing had long ago heard the Red Scorpion Queen say that part of the ancient array was hidden within the Red Scorpion Desert, but even the Red Scorpion Empress who had been in the desert for many years did not know its exact location.
Feng Bailing, having faith, let the Red Scorpion Queen search for it. Once the exact location was found, she would then figure out a way to explore it herself.
Judging by ti, a whole night had passed, and the Red Scorpion Queen should also have made so progress.
Just in ti, Feng Bailing could take the opportunity to look for water sources and food to go find the Red Scorpion Immortal Queen to understand the situation.
After the past day and night’s experiences, the team mbers had no objections to Feng Bailing’s words.
After making arrangents, Feng Bailing led several people to start the mission.
This journey, however, was much faster.
Feng Bailing and Dugu Xiaojin quickly arrived near the water source.
The water source guarded by the Red Scorpion Empress was a natural spring. After being notified the day before, the Red Scorpions near the spring had already withdrawn.
“Not far ahead is the water source, there might be Red Scorpions nearby, so everyone should still be cautious.”
On the way here, Feng Bailing had already warned Dugu Xiaojin to discreetly contact the Red Scorpion Queen. However, Feng Bailing was surprised that the Red Scorpion Queen did not respond to Dugu Xiaojin imdiately.
It was not until they neared the water source that Dugu Xiaojin learned from other Red Scorpions that the Red Scorpion Queen had been injured and was currently recuperating in her old lair.
Fortunately, although she was injured, she had already given orders; the surrounding Red Scorpions did not attack Feng Bailing and others, they rely made symbolic appearances nearby.
For the sake of convenience, Feng Bailing still decided to send the others away.
“Luochen, you take them to the water source up ahead to fetch water. Xia Xing, you stay here to keep watch; signal us imdiately if anything goes wrong. Xiaojin, White Wolf, and I are familiar with this place, we’ll go to another Red Scorpion warehouse to find food.”
To avoid arousing suspicion, Feng Bailing and Dugu Xiaojin had brought back only a limited amount of water and fruit the day before, which was used up last night, so today they needed to bring back so water and food.
Xia Xing nodded and strolled to one side.
Feng Luochen and Hong Xuan, Dongfang Yong bravely headed towards the water source direction indicated by Feng Bailing.
Mother and son, with White Wolf, headed towards the direction marked by the scent of the Red Scorpion Queen.
It wasn’t long before Feng Bailing saw the Red Scorpion Queen in a sand pit.
“Xiao Hong is injured!”
Upon seeing the Red Scorpion Queen’s condition, Dugu Xiaojin beca very nervous and hurriedly ran up.
Compared with the day before, the Red Scorpion Queen’s tail was broken by half. Her imposing large pincers were even more scarred, obviously having suffered a severe injury.
Feng Bailing quickly went forward to examine its injuries.
The Red Scorpion Queen also told Feng Bailing the reason for her injuries.
It turns out that after Feng Bailing’s orders last night, the Red Scorpion Queen led her subordinates to attack Xiao Junci and the Beiqi Team mbers.
The battle with Xiao Junci was not particularly intense; it was just that the Red Scorpion Queen was familiar with the terrain, and as Feng Bailing only asked to damage the water bags and contaminate the dry rations, the Red Scorpion Queen didn’t really suffer, rely sustaining so minor injuries.
Its serious injuries were inflicted later.
After the Red Scorpion Queen returned to the Red Scorpion Nest, it encountered attacks from two other Red Scorpion Queens.
Earlier on, Feng Bailing had learned from the Red Scorpion Queen that there were a total of four Red Scorpion Queens in the Red Scorpion Desert. The other three Red Scorpion Queens, like the one in front of her, were guarding the Red Scorpion Desert, preventing invaders from discovering the ancient array.
The person who left behind the ancient array was also very smart. Although he left a chip in the Red Scorpion Queen, he did not place his trust in such lower beings as scorpions, so he left a total of four Red Scorpion Queens.
These Red Scorpion Queens kept each other in check and under surveillance. Sotis, they would even fight each other for water, food, and territory.
In the past, such attacks would not have frightened the Red Scorpion Queen, but this ti the situation was tricky because two Red Scorpion Queens attacked its nest simultaneously.
Sandwiched from both sides, the Red Scorpion Queen was severely injured.
Feng Bailing showed a look of surprise upon hearing this.
“Previously, other Red Scorpion Queens also attacked you together?”
“Never before. In the past, it was always one Red Scorpion Queen trying to seize territory, only last night there were two. I suspect that they might have tead up because they realized the chip in was gone.”
The Red Scorpion Queen shared its speculation with Feng Bailing.
Feng Bailing didn’t expect that no sooner had the chip been extracted than the other Red Scorpion Queens noticed, showing that the person who left the chips was more ticulous than she had imagined. There might be so inseparable connections between the chips.
“Sorry, because I was injured, I couldn’t go out last night, and I haven’t found the whereabouts of the ancient array yet. However, I’ve sent my subordinates to look for any news about the ancient array, and I will be imdiately inford as soon as there is any clue.”
The Red Scorpion Queen felt sowhat guilty.
“Xiao Hong, you have already done very well. You helped us handle the big trouble that was Xiao Junci.”
Feng Bailing was very thankful to the Red Scorpion Queen, and she took out so Purple Ginseng Wine.
Purple Ginseng Wine was a concoction of Purple Ginseng elixir essence and Monkey Wine crafted by Feng Bailing, and it was extrely precious, to the extent that she herself rarely indulged in drinking it.
But this ti, she generously gave a bottle of Purple Ginseng Wine to the Red Scorpion Queen.
The mont the Red Scorpion Queen caught the scent of the wine, it knew the wine was extraordinary.
Feng Bailing’s nature was such that she always repaid grievances as well as kindness. It was due to the help of the Red Scorpion Queen that she could reach an agreent with Xiao Junci so quickly, and the Great Chu Team B could successfully get through the second round of the competition.
That was why she gave the Purple Ginseng Wine to the Red Scorpion Queen.
After drinking the Purple Ginseng Wine, the Red Scorpion Queen’s broken scorpion tail miraculously grew back, and the wounds on its back also healed quickly.
“This wine is magical. With it, I am confident that I can stand against the other Red Scorpion Queens.”
Dugu Xiaojin conveyed Xiao Hong’s gratitude.
The Red Scorpion Queen confidently waved its tail, which had beco powerful again.
“I ca to you today exactly for this matter. Apart from you, there are three other Red Scorpion Queens in the Red Scorpion Desert. Among them, there must be one guarding the ancient array. I plan to act with you to break into the other Red Scorpion nests, kill those Red Scorpion Queens, and in doing so, you could unify the Red Scorpion Desert while I could also find the whereabouts of the ancient array.”
Feng Bailing had calculated that without Xiao Junci’s pursuit, they would have plenty of ti in the next two days.
As for Lady Nan Feng, poisoned by the substance Feng Bailing had applied on the Signal Arrow, she wouldn’t be able to cause any trouble for a while. Feng Bailing was determined to find the part of the ancient array hidden in the Red Scorpion Desert before Lady Nan Feng!
