Immortality: Raising an Ant Queen to Cultivate by increasing stat points

Chapter 348 - 341 Birth of the Blood Spider_1

But it involved a woman\'s honor and chastity, and absolutely could not be leaked.

Otherwise, she would never be able to lift her head in the village for the rest of her life and would be subject to people\'s finger-pointing.

"I promise you, it won\'t go any further."

Qin Niu nodded earnestly.

Only then did she let go of her worries. "The employer had me bathe thoroughly and then sit in a tub full of bloody water. Just by sitting there for one night, I could have three days off from work and even receive an additional reward of One Tael of Silver.

When I sat in it, I felt disgusted and a little scared.

However... after sitting for half an Hour, I felt a tingling numbness, which was quite comfortable. The next morning, I got out of the tub, cleaned myself off, and indeed received the One Tael of Silver that the employer had promised.

Earning that One Tael of Silver was exceptionally easy."

An adult male working for a landlord for a year would earn only a basic wage of three Taels of Silver.

Even with various subsidies and benefits, it would be less than four Taels of Silver.

She merely sat in a tub full of fresh blood for one night and earned One Tael of Silver, which indeed seemed too easy.

Yet, as an adult, she didn\'t consider the consequences.

Where in this world is there a free lunch?

For such a sum of money, there must be a price to pay.

"About a month or so later, I began to feel nauseated at the smell of cooking oil, but the smell of blood seemed especially comfortable, almost fragrant. Also, I often vomited during meals.

My stomach slowly started to bulge out.

I knew there was a possibility I was pregnant.

The employer took great care of me, and the few of us who did private work for him had meat at every meal. At first, it was cooked meat served in a big bowl. Later, they started giving me raw meat to eat.

My belly grew bigger day by day.

Then, around three months later, the employer called me over and told me that the dumpling restaurant\'s business had worsened, and he asked me to go home and wait for news. When they needed manpower again, they would send someone to take me to the city.

He also told me to give birth to the child in my stomach and that afterwards, the employer would give me ten more Taels of Silver.

So I came back.

Flower\'s daughter returned on the same day as I did.

Now that I think about it carefully, the whole situation is filled with oddities. You say that Flower\'s daughter is dead, and I\'m terrified, worried that whatever is inside my belly might cost me my life."

Even if she was foolish, she knew that what was inside her was by no means human.

It was likely related to sitting in a tub filled with blood for one night.

"Now, the only option is to find a way to remove the thing in your belly. That employer who hired you certainly knows the antidote. If we can find him, you can be saved. Where does he live in the city? I\'ll find a way to reach him."

Qin Niu pressed for the employer\'s address.

No matter whether that person was a disciple of the Nine Insect Gang or not, since he had killed Aunt Flower\'s daughter, he could not be forgiven.

The act of using a living person as a surrogate to incubate Gu was extremely evil.

If this person was not eliminated, more innocent women would continue to die tragically.

And the longer the delay, the more Gu the man would cultivate, making him harder to deal with later on.

Just how powerful the Gu arts of the Southern Border were, Qin Niu did not know.

He only knew that even the Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect had been extremely wary of them in the past.

"Oh no... My, my stomach feels like it\'s about to burst, it hurts, it\'s so painful!"

She suddenly cried out in agony, her expression turning fierce.

Her eyeballs began to show bloodlines at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in an instant, her eyes turned into terrifying blood-red pupils.

Covered with bloodlines of all sizes.

Seeing all this, Qin Niu\'s face turned solemn.

He had planned to get the employer\'s address from Wang Haikun\'s wife and then take him down, naturally obtaining the antidote in the process.

He hadn\'t expected her to act up so quickly.

"Uh... it hurts so much, my stomach feels like it\'s splitting open!"

Her screams grew even more piercing.

"Wife, wife!"

Wang Haikun stumbled his way in.

After Qin Niu had thrown him out the door, this young man was too scared to come in, yet he did not leave. Instead, he stayed outside the door, eavesdropping.

The door was never shut.

Seeing his wife in agony, Wang Haikun knew that she might die.

His heart was filled with remorse.

He had always abused his wife, suspecting her of having an affair with Xie Laizi. It was only now that he realized what his wife was carrying was not human at all. She had never betrayed Wang Haikun.

"Haikun... I\'ve never betrayed you! After I die, you must live a good life, don\'t get drunk anymore..."

"Ah..."

She looked at Wang Haikun tearfully.

Perhaps because of the excruciating pain in her belly, she cried out in agony again. Sweat quickly soaked her hair.

A large patch of fresh blood appeared on the bedding beneath her, expanding rapidly.

The amniotic fluid had broken.

Her body arched upward, her hands clutching the bedsheet tightly, and her bones made cracking noises.

The blood and fluid flowing from beneath her continued to increase. A layer of black air enveloped her face.

She looked extremely terrifying.

"Master Qin, Master Qin, save me! I beg you to overlook my past offenses and save my wife. I am willing to work like an ox or a horse for you in the future."

As Wang Haikun saw his wife fading, he collapsed with a bang, kneeling before Qin Niu.

Pleading for him to save his wife.

He knew very well that only Qin Niu had the ability to save her.

Now, it seemed her labor had reached a certain stage; she was no longer able to make any noise, and her face had turned purplish-black.

"We have to let her give birth to whatever is inside her belly first, then figure out what to do."

Qin Niu was neither a doctor nor a Gu Master.

He did not have a good way to save her.

Even if he were a Gu Master, without knowing which Gu was planted by someone else, he would have no way to handle it.

Wang Haikun\'s wife had already pulled down her trousers by herself, and a bloodied orb rolled out.

It burst open, and from inside emerged a creature with eight legs.

It was dark red all over, resembling a spider but not entirely.

On its back were profound dark black patterns forming a unique rune. Faint, thread-like sparks flashed across its body.

"This, this... how could my wife give birth to a spider?"

Wang Haikun was terrified.

He scrambled out of the way in panic.

Qin Niu, however, had already been waiting, ready to act.

"Fourth, control it."

Fourth had already been stationed there with a group of Puppet Ants, waiting for this Gu creature to be born.

Upon receiving Qin Niu\'s command, its antennae targeted the Blood Spider.

The same was true for the other Termite ants.

The fleeing Blood Spider froze mid-escape, then stopped moving on the bedsheet.

But it wasn\'t immediately under control.

It was clear to see that the Blood Spider was formidable.

Keep in mind that Fourth was already on the verge of advancing to Grade Four, infinitely close to Grade Five.

It and the rest of the Puppet Ants were battle-hardened, skilled in using spiritual power to manipulate their enemies; they were extremely proficient.

Yet at this moment, they could not immediately subdue the Blood Spider.

Not because they were too weak, but because this Blood Spider was too powerful.

Qin Niu took out a metal cage and covered the Blood Spider with it.

As it got startled, it darted forward and managed to easily slip through the gaps of the metal cage.
