Chapter 334: Taking Advantage
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The werewolf retreated weakly after he was done. He turned around and saw someone standing behind him.
“Who are you? Who told you to come here?” The werewolf reprimanded unhappily.
Li Yuanqing stood there in a daze.
Just as the werewolf was about to flare up, Li Yuanqing suddenly walked towards him.
“What are you doing? If you don’t get out quickly, I’ll skin you alive.”
The werewolf was in no mood to talk nonsense with Li Yuanqing now. However, this kid had been staying here and refused to leave, making him very angry. However, after being threatened by him, not only did Li Yuanqing not leave, he even walked up like a fool.
“You’re courting death!”
The werewolf roared angrily and stretched out his thick arm to grab Li Yuanqing. Ordinary people would be shattered by this claw.
The werewolf did not want to waste his breath on this guy and directly attacked with a fatal blow. However, at this moment, a strange little head suddenly appeared behind him. The little fellow lay on his neck and bit down heavily.
The werewolf hurriedly retracted his hand in pain and suddenly grabbed at his neck. However, even the werewolf could not make it in time. His hand slowly stopped. His eyes, which were originally filled with energy, gradually dimmed into white b.a.l.l.s.
The little guy retracted his mouth in satisfaction and patted his round stomach. He stood on the werewolf’s shoulder. The werewolf who was lively just now had become a stone statue.
Li Yuanqing looked around. What was so special about the little fellow insisting on coming here?
Although there were many eggs outside, the aura of the eggs inside was clearly much stronger. It was only in the transit state, the aura was already vaguely at the Spirit Transformation realm.
At this moment, a sticky egg squeezed out of the many huge white bodies. The egg rolled to the ground and landed beside Li Yuanqing’s feet.
The little fellow pounced at Li Yuanqing’s feet and picked up the egg. Although the egg was two to three times larger than his body, he easily raised it to his head and hugged it in his arms. His entire body leaned back exaggeratedly and he could barely stand properly. However, he was smiling happily.
After hugging it and spinning it a few times, the little guy suddenly threw the egg into the air. He opened his mouth and a strong suction force came from his mouth. The suction force kept pulling, easily sucking the egg into his mouth. His mouth suddenly enlarged several times and swallowed the entire egg.
After the little guy took a bite, he burped and patted his stomach proudly.
It turned out that he had smelled the aura of these eggs outside. Li Yuanqing was also overjoyed as he felt the energy in his body increase.
All along, he had no idea how to properly nurture this Soul Suppression Altar. Although the little fellow could also absorb some power from the outside world, its speed was not very impressive.
Now that he had actually discovered such a treasure vault, if the little fellow could increase his energy by devouring these eggs, then wouldn’t the power of the Soul Suppression Altar increase by several levels if he took away all the eggs in the entire cave?
Li Yuanqing waved his hand without hesitation, and the eggs that were fixed to the wall by the net swayed crazily. They stuck to the wall very reluctantly. Many of them even had their own consciousness and were able to control them freely.
However, it was still very difficult for them to resist such a powerful suction force with their current strength. Li Yuanqing’s strength was too powerful for them to resist.
There were forty to fifty eggs in this cave. These eggs were of various sizes. Some of them should have developed for a long time and were about to manifest. However, Li Yuanqing mercilessly stole them all.
After clearing this place, the two of them quickly left. At this moment, the broodmother above suddenly realized something.
There have been too many troubles recently. She had made such a wrong decision last time, causing the entire race to face the threat of extinction. She had to devote herself to controlling the Insect Clan.
It was the critical moment to close the spatial entrance, but there seemed to be some movement from the nest below.
The body protruding from the bottom of the broodmother twisted slightly. The pure white wall-like body suddenly split into a human form. When she arrived and saw the mess and the empty wall, she was shocked.
The broodmother let out a miserable scream that could be heard clearly in every corner of the cave.
Of course, there were also Li Yuanqing and the little fellow. The two of them had also heard this incomparably clear scream. However, at this moment, Li Yuanqing had already arrived at another cave under the little fellow’s lead. The white bear stationed here had also been quickly dealt with.
Their race relied on this method to maintain their reproduction. The broodmother chose a demon beast in its prime and mate with it. In the end, it gave birth to eggs and continued to reproduce like this, causing many different forms to appear in the entire Insect Clan.
After the broodmother gave the order, the entire insect clan’s cave was instantly in chaos. The troops they had originally used to defend were all gathered in the various nursery nests.
They never expected that someone would be able to take advantage of the situation and sneak into such a deep place. How did these thieves get in?
Li Yuanqing did not have the time to stay any longer. After putting away all the eggs in the cave, he put Little Dot away. The two of them turned into a gust of wind and disappeared from the long and narrow cave.
“Look carefully. If anything happens, report it immediately!”
A slender fellow with countless limbs on his body was waving two weapons and distributing orders to his subordinates.
They were ordered to guard this place and told their subordinates to keep searching along the pa.s.sageway below. They heard that there was some movement here just now. Perhaps that person was hiding here. This was an extremely critical moment for them.
Their entire clan had never provoked the humans outside, but this time, it seemed like they had done something wrong. It was as if they had been punished and had been constantly hara.s.sed by the humans. Not only had so many of their kind been killed by the humans, but now, someone had even barged into the cave to steal their eggs.
There were a total of three branches at the intersection where their team was located. Not long after, the two fellows from the middle path rushed back.
“What are you two doing? I told you to send a signal. Why did you come back without saying anything? Do you want to die?”
The captain glared at the two of them angrily and questioned them. At such a critical moment, the two of them still dared to screw up. If his mother discovered them, no one would be able to keep their lives.
The two of them reported while panting, “Captain, there’s something strange down here.”
“What’s strange? If you see someone, just report it and send a signal to send reinforcements. Why are you shouting here?”
“Captain, go over and take a look. It’s really strange down there. Many eggs were placed there, but we didn’t notice anyone.”
“What, there are eggs?”
“That’s right. It’s right here. We don’t know if we should take it back.”
The centipede demon’s eyes darted around and carefully sized them up.
“In that case, that person should have thrown away his armor and fled. Then let’s send these eggs back first. Where is it?”
“Down there, Captain.”
“Lead the way.”
They actually walked down one after another. Although the captain looked ordinary, he still had the strength of a second-grade Formation Arrangement Realm expert. Although his form had changed, he was still stuck to the wall when he walked. His legs moved very quickly, it could not change his nature.
They chased all the way forward. Not long after, the two people in front suddenly stopped.
There were indeed a few eggs in front of them. They were flickering slightly, as if they were responding to something.
The captain pushed them away and rushed forward, hugging the eggs.
“Shameless thief, you actually dare to steal here. If I capture you, you won’t have a good ending!”
At this moment, he suddenly felt that his body had become very heavy. He felt as if his hands and feet were tied up by something. He looked at his body in confusion.
At some point, his long and narrow body had been tightly bound by someone. Each and every one of them was covered in black threads. The black threads tightened and bound him tightly, preventing him from moving.
The centipede demon turned pale with fright. It opened its mouth and wanted to send a signal, but at this moment, a medium-sized cover suddenly covered its head, enveloping its entire body.
The two lackeys who had led the way behind had already disappeared. Instead, he had become a young human. This guy looked young, but he gave off a dignified aura just by standing there. His aura was so terrifying.
The centipede demon realized that no matter how hard it tried, it could not send out any signal. All its strength had been imprisoned, and the black rope had sealed all the spiritual energy in its body. It could not mobilize it at all.
Although he was extremely surprised, he could not say anything. He immediately watched as the young man walked over step by step until he arrived in front of him.
“I’m warning you, you human brat, you can’t escape. You will definitely die here. You will definitely die here!”
Li Yuanqing had no intention of paying attention to him. He wanted him to stay because he needed a complete sh.e.l.l.
After a moment, a long and narrow fellow with countless pairs of long legs slowly crawled out of the cave.
In the beginning, he did not seem to be used to his body. It was very awkward when he walked. His claws collided with each other, but the more he walked, the faster he walked. As he ran, he turned into a black bolt of lightning.
This centipede spirit was transformed by Li Yuanqing. He had no obstructions along the way. He relied on this body to wander around and shout slogans with those people. They went everywhere to find the eggs, but they could not find any clues.
The person with the eggs had already arrived at the exit. There were five powerful generals standing at the exit. These people were jointly activating an array formation on the teleportation gate. They were about to seal the exit.
All five of them were at the sixth-grade Formation Arrangement Realm. At this moment, they were focused on the array formation and did not have the time to care about what was happening outside. But there were more than ten soldiers guarding behind them.
“Who is it? No one is allowed to enter!”
When the centipede demon arrived, he was suddenly stopped. The guard glared at him sternly.
“I’m from the search team. I saw that human running over with my own eyes. I don’t know where he’s hiding now. Please cooperate with the search!”
“A search team?” The guard glared at him unhappily. “One of us is stationed here, and there are five generals stationed here. Even if the human race panicked, it’s impossible for them to come here. Look elsewhere.”
However, the centipede demon was very stubborn.
“I saw him come here with my own eyes. I’m definitely not wrong. His aura disappeared here. He must be hiding here. Moreover, this person is very good at transformation. I have a lot of reason to suspect that he has already transformed into the image of one of you and is quietly hiding here.”
“Nonsense. We’re all guards who have been guarding here. How could he have time to replace us?”
“This matter is very important. Do you know that that human has dozens of top-notch eggs on him? Can you bear the consequences if he takes these eggs away?”
“Well…”
Although the guard had spoken very firmly just now, he panicked when it came to taking responsibility.
They were very sure that there were no spies from the human race inside, but they did not dare to say anything else after being told that. If they were to bear this responsibility, they would not have the courage to stand up if anything went wrong.
“Let me search quickly!”
