Chapter 234: Chapter 227: The Black Tiger Gang Leader Who Scratched His Head Open 1

The assassination of Song Zan yielded great rewards, but it was regrettable that no magical creature eggs were obtained.

The Wolf Cavalry brought a beauty to Song Zan, each receiving a high-grade egg as a reward. It felt like Lord Song Zan should have had quite a few high-grade eggs.

He probably didn’t carry them on his person.

After all, who would carry around magical creature eggs at ho for no reason!

When Qin Niu killed Song Zan, he only thought about fleeing quickly and didn’t give in to the greed of rummaging through the central military tent for other valuables.

In his view, many people died because of their greed.

Content people are often happy.

In that situation, if he had to choose again, he would still not risk exploring that central military tent.

Because being discovered almost certainly ant certain death.

To risk his life for so valuables was not worth it.

He examined the half of the military token he had, which was heavy and made of bronze. It might also include special materials, like gold. The material was durable, and the tactile feeling was excellent, with cleverly designed male and female clasps.

This was a military token used by the ard forces.

During military campaigns, it had to be matched with the other half to command the troops.

The other half of the token was typically held by the emperor or an envoy sent by the emperor.

In warti, the left side of the token was held by the commanding officer, while the right side was managed by the supervising officer. To mobilize the troops, approval from the supervising officer was needed, and the two halves of the token could perfectly fit together.

The engravings on it were complex and generally hard to counterfeit.

This half of the token falling into Qin Niu’s hands ant the other half was now useless.

The Nine Insect Gang would probably produce a new token to replace it.

Qin Niu found this item interesting, so he didn’t throw it away.

After tallying his gains, he lay down in bed and fell into a deep sleep.

The Everlasting Spring Technique needed to be practiced in the rain or on moonlit nights. Otherwise, it could completely replace rest and sleep.

He slept soundly in the comfort of the inn.

In the central military tent of the Nine Insect Gang, the subordinates, noticing that Lord Song Zan had not returned from chasing the fleeing woman, imdiately went out to search and eventually found Song Zan’s slain body at the mountain top.

He was decapitated with his death being a tragic sight.

Moreover, all his tokens and military token were lost.

They imdiately sounded the horn, the troops, hearing the call, mobilized at once, conducting a search to find the woman who killed Lord Song Zan.

But to no avail.

They were about to launch a surprise attack on the Black Tiger Gang, but their commanding officer had been killed.

In a rage, the supervisory officer imdiately reported the matter.

The upper echelons of the Nine Insect Gang were all furious.

The atmosphere in the council hall was tense to the extre.

Anyone could feel the Gang Leader’s towering rage.

“At all costs, the murderer must be captured. Whoever dares to kill my beloved officer shall not die a good death,” said the Gang Leader of the Nine Insect Gang, a woman.

Her words were filled with vile poison, brimming with boundless hatred.

“The murderer must die; this is the dignity and face of the Nine Insect Gang. But with Song Zan being killed at this critical mont, could it be that the Black Tiger Gang has already discerned our military plans? If we launch the attack, we can only achieve the best effect by catching the enemy unprepared. If the enemy is ready for us, our eight thousand brave soldiers crossing the river will be in great danger.”

“Indeed, this matter is suspicious and cannot be ignored. Send orders to the three armies at Wash Cri River to hold their position and continue drills on the spot. Once a new commander is appointed, we will make a decision,” said the Nine Insects Gang Leader, not daring to gamble with the lives of the eight thousand soldiers rashly.

The significance of a surprise attack lies in catching the enemy off guard.

If the enemy is already prepared, attempting a surprise attack would basically be like serving oneself up on a platter.

Qin Niu didn’t know that he had inadvertently assisted the Black Tiger Gang greatly.

Right now, the Black Tiger Gang was rushing to prepare for battle, with most of their forces gathered along the Black River riverbank. Their rear defenses were incredibly weak.

The eight thousand soldiers of the Nine Insect Gang launching a surprise attack could likely reach the gates of Black Tiger City in one fell swoop.

And even cause more severe consequences.

Within the ordinary mansion of the Black Tiger Gang, a middle-aged man dressed in white garnts was sitting cross-legged in the backyard, practicing his breathing exercises.

Faintly visible were two strands of energy following his breath, endlessly circling around his nostrils.

“An intelligence report!”

“Bring it in.”

The middle-aged man slowly ended his exercises and opened his eyes.

This man was burly and his face bore a fierce appearance. When he opened his eyes, a tangible sharpness shot forth, evidencing the high level of his cultivation.

Clearly, only those with extrely profound cultivation could display such phenona.

A personal guard took the intelligence report and handed it to the middle-aged man.

“The Nine Insects Gang has a large number of troops moving around the banks of Wash Cri River? It looks like they’re searching for soone?”

“The Wash Cri River is a natural barrier between our two gangs. It would be extrely difficult for an army to cross. The sudden appearance of a large number of troops—what is the Nine Insects Gang planning? Are they intending to launch an attack from this location?

If there truly is a large force invading from this direction into our Black Tiger Gang’s territory, we cannot afford to be careless.

However, the Nine Insects Gang Leader has always been cunning and ruthless. If he wanted to invade the Black Tiger Gang’s territory from this direction, it would be more advantageous for him to do so surreptitiously. Why would they intentionally reveal the whereabouts of their large force? What are they planning?”

The middle-aged man frowned and racked his brain, but he could not figure it out.

“Summon the gang’s high-level mbers for a eting imdiately.”

Learning about the sudden appearance of the Nine Insects Gang’s large number of troops on the banks of Wash Cri River made the middle-aged man take it very seriously.

No matter the reason, an imdiate response was necessary.

In Hundred Leaf Town, Qin Niu awoke from his sleep as the night fell.

After eating his fill, he also specially bought so at to feed his Diamond Ink Turtle and Red-eyed Golden Toad.

As for the Termites, he couldn’t feed them now.

Although they are omnivorous creatures, their preferred diet still consists of trees, roots, and the like.

“Sir, the streets at night are even livelier. Won’t you go out and have a look?”

The waiter brought a pot of tea over to Qin Niu.

“Are there people looking for Green Demon Bees at night?”

Qin Niu casually rewarded the waiter with half a piece of Silver Money.

The waiter bead with joy.

“Thank you, young master!” The waiter tucked the Silver Money into his clothes. “There are even more people looking for Green Demon Bees at night than during the day! Many are like you, resting in the inn during the day and going into the mountains to search for traces of Green Demon Bees at night.” “Oh, why is that?”

Qin Niu was quite curious.

The mountains at night should be more dangerous after all.

But it was hard to see mountains as big as those near Shuangfeng Village from here, only so small hills.

“Wild bees typically go out to forage during the day, so it’s not easy to find them. Also, many wild bees are not visible at night, making them easier to catch. Comparatively speaking, the risk of being attacked by them at night is also smaller.”

The waiter seed to know quite a bit.

“Thankyou for sharing!”

Qin Niu, feeling generous, rewarded the waiter with another half piece of Silver Money.

“My, my, the young master is really too generous. Thank you for your generous tip.”

One piece of Silver Money was equivalent to several days’ inco for the waiter.

Usually, receiving one or two Wen Money as a tip was considered quite good. Qin Niu directly rewarded him with one piece of Silver Money, which was equivalent to a hundred Wen Money.

“If you go to the mountains to look for Green Demon Bees, rember one thing for sure; if you encounter blackened rocks in the mountains, do not proceed any further. There are killer bees there, and if stung, it’s easy to lose one’s life. It’s said that there are formidable wild bees inside that can see at night, with long poison stingers that can penetrate even through cotton clothing.”

Having received the tip,

The waiter revealed even more information.

However, upon hearing this, instead of being frightened, Qin Niu showed an extrely interested expression.

If the wild bees weren’t formidable, he wouldn’t even be interested.

So far, he had only discovered that Corpse Bees possessed night vision abilities.

But raising Corpse Bees was harmful to the heavens, and their cultivation was extrely difficult.

He preferred Green Demon Bees..
