Immortality: Raising an Ant Queen to Cultivate by increasing stat point - Chapter 333:
Chapter 333: Chapter 326: Promoted to Broodmother_1
Qin Niu accompanied Wang Wanyan to the street.
Because of her exceptionally beautiful appearance, she would wear a face veil every time she went out for self-protection.
This kind of attire was fairly common in the city.
Many well-bred ladies did not want to show their faces too much, and wearing a cloak would seem too mysterious and instead attract the peculiar gazes of passers-by. Therefore, they chose to wear face veils when going out.
Some even chose to disguise themselves as men.
While strolling with her on the street, Xiao Qing followed behind the pair, and Green Ox was taken by Qin Niu to “see the world.” It did not cause any trouble but instead looked around curiously, admiring the city’s prosperity and bustle.
Wang Wanyan, who seldom went out, seemed very practiced when it came to shopping.
She picked out fabric, asked the tailor to take Qin Niu’s measurements, and bargained. This was in complete contrast to her usual tranquility and shyness.
She would be an excellent choice to manage household affairs and take care of family finances in the future.
A lioness does not bear a lamb.
Wang Furen had been a businessman before moving to the countryside, buying houses and land and becoming a wealthy farmer. His daughter had learned a thing or two from her father.
When she shopped, Qin Niu watched indulgently by her side the entire time.
It was clear she was a rather frugal person.
She prioritized practicality and affordability in her purchases.
She did not chase after status or luxury.
She quickly had two sets of clothes tailored for Qin Niu. One set was a red wedding suit, and the other was for everyday wear. She haggled so hard that she managed to get the owner to throw in two extra pairs of cloth shoes.
The owner agreed with a wry smile.
“Wan Yan, don’t just focus on getting me clothes, you should also buy two outfits for yourself, and get two more for Xiao Qing. If you’re certain about Cai Xian’s size, you could also prepare two outfits for her,” Qin Niu suggested.
Buying a few outfits was just a trifle for Qin Niu.
Truly a drop in the bucket.
“Why buy so many clothes? I still have clothes to wear, and there will be a wedding dress in your betrothal gifts. Xiao Qing should have clothes to wear recently, she is growing up. Sister Cai Xian has very high standards for clothing quality. If you really want to buy some, it would be better for you to come with her personally next time,” she advised.
She had not yet married over, but she was already considering Qin Niu’s needs.
She was the epitome of a good wife and wise mother.
“Alright, I’ll listen to you! Whenever you want to buy new clothes, just buy them; no need to worry about whether I can afford it,” Qin Niu was totally agreeable to her suggestions.
The three of them left the clothing store, and Qin Niu took her into a jewelry store.
He bought several pieces of jewelry for both her and Tang Caixian.
For such a significant event as marriage, could mere betrothal gifts be enough?
With the capability, of course, he wanted to spoil his wife with his strength.
Girls seemed to have an innate love for pretty adornments. He gave her two pairs of earrings, a hair accessory, and a pearl necklace, making her so happy that her eyes curved and shone with laughter.
Sweet happiness almost spilled from her eyes.
After their preparations were nearly complete, the three of them prepared to rent a horse carriage to return home.
They happened to pass by Old Master Huang’s house.
Qin Niu noticed that the house was not abandoned but was now occupied.
Was it taken over by the family of Old Master Huang? Or perhaps the Nine Insect Gang had taken over the property?
This could be a matter for Tang Yan to secretly investigate.
Qin Niu had killed many of the Nine Insect Gang’s important people, and last time Fang Lian told him that Elder Mei of the Nine Insect Gang had likely infiltrated the Black Tiger Gang’s territory. Qin Niu needed to be extra careful.
…
After renting a carriage and returning to Shuangfeng Village, they found the lock on Qin Niu’s house intact, and the corpses of the He Family’s experts, who had been killed at his door the day before, had all been cleaned up.
Only dark red bloodstains could still be seen on the ground.
This battle had made him suddenly rise as a new titan in Jade Stream Town, surpassing the Yan Family and Pang Family.
It also gave him some reputation within the Black Tiger Gang.
It was truly a battle that made his name.
The time-honored He Family, a prominent local clan, was directly wiped off the map.
It must be said, in this world where strength is revered, being low-key like the Yan Family is the true path to success.
Perhaps even the high ranks of the He Family never expected that by provoking a newly ennobled Grade One noble, they would directly bring about their family’s destruction.
Entering the house, Qin Niu found that the insects and pets were all safe and sound.
The He Family had not sent anyone to break into his residence.
At that time, the He Family only wanted to kill Qin Niu. As for the house, they could easily come to take it over later.
Moreover, since Shuangfeng Village was Yan Family’s territory, the He Family did not want to make more powerful enemies.
Qin Niu went to the backyard and pulled a strand of hair from his head.
The strand of hair astonishingly arched its body and lifted its head.
“You’ve done a great service this time, helping me get rid of the second eldest He. You shall be rewarded!”
Qin Niu had confidently let the second eldest He leave while placing the Green Silk Worm on him to secretly monitor.
Later, upon learning of the second eldest He’s betrayal, he directly had the Green Silk Worm launch a Venom Attack.
All this was unbeknownst to the second eldest He.
Green Silk Worm (Adult Female)
Grade: Grade Four segmented worms with tentacles, experience for leveling up 10000/100000
Lifespan: Infinite
Energy: 1706
Abilities: Bloodsucking First Order 4.5/10, Venom First Order 5.1/10 (paralysis, coagulation), Tracking First Order 0/10 (can track targets within a hundred miles by the scent left behind or the scent of its offspring).
Talent: Parasitism, Spirit Communication
It had advanced from Grade Three to Grade Four, and gained an additional skill in tracking.
Quite impressive indeed.
The lifespan of this kind of insect is infinite, as long as it doesn’t starve or get killed, it can virtually live forever.
In terms of longevity, even the Ant Queen seems insignificant before it.
After its promotion to Grade Four, it finally transformed from a larva into an adult female.
This meant that it could lay eggs and then hatch new Green Silk Worms.
In the future, Qin Niu could use these offspring to monitor his enemies.
This would not only significantly reduce the risk to the mother worm but also achieve real surveillance.
One could understand it this way: the mother worm is a receiver, and the offspring are surveillance probes.
By having the offspring parasitize an enemy, it’s like installing a monitoring device on them.
Qin Niu could be aware of every single move of the enemy through the mother worm.
The blood of a Spirit Qi Realm strong person is indeed a great tonic. After the Green Silk Worm fed on Elder Jiu Yin’s blood, it rapidly advanced a grade in just a short period of time.
If one day it could be nurtured to Grade Seven or above, that would be fantastic.
It could monitor every single move and word of the enemy on a full-scale.
For now, its main surveillance purpose is tracking.
It will still need to lay eggs and wait for them to hatch first.
As for hatching, Qin Niu did have some cultivation experience.
He took some of Elder Jiu Yin’s blood and fed it to the Green Silk Worm as a reward.
Killing the second eldest He, it relied on two types of venom: paralysis and coagulation.
Paralyzing the enemy’s respiratory organs could directly cause them to suffocate to death. The coagulation venom could cause a large number of blood clots to form in the enemy’s head, leading to a stroke.
Killing an Innate Realm strong person with these two abilities might be challenging.
Against an ordinary person, it’s almost a sure kill with each attempt.
The Green Silk Worm’s sucker plunged into the dark red, gelatinous blood and greedily absorbed the liquid.
Its tail could be seen wagging non-stop, obviously filled with joy.
