Just as Qinchuan was about to follow everyone and take a detour, the little armored dragon raised a different opinion in Qinchuan's mind. It was protesting against Qinchuan's detour.
"I want to eat!
Eat!
Eat it! "
Qinchuan was a little surprised when he heard the little armored dragon's clamor. What did the little armored dragon want to eat?
Could it be the black armored ant?!
Qinchuan remained calm and collected on the surface, but he secretly began to communicate with the little armored dragon. He asked, "What do you want to eat?
Black armored ant? "
In response to Qinchuan's inquiry, the little armored dragon nodded excitedly and replied, "Eat it!"
Qinchuan did not know whether to laugh or cry. He said to the little armored dragon, "That guy is an Ancient Direbeast, a prehistoric mutant. Are you sure you can eat it?"
Although Qinchuan was still very confident in the little armored dragon, the black armored ant was an Ancient Direbeast after all. If it was not handled well and the black armored ant was angered, it would not be fun.
However, in the face of Qinchuan's worries, the little armored dragon was full of confidence. It said to Qinchuan, "There's help!"
Qinchuan was slightly taken aback when he heard that. After thinking for a while, he asked, "The help you mentioned refers to the Tian people and the Protoss?"
In Qinchuan's opinion, apart from the Tian people and the Protoss, no one else in the ruins was qualified to provoke the black armored ant. The little armored dragon said that there was help. Did it mean that it wanted to fish in troubled waters?
Facing the excited little armored dragon, Qinchuan hesitated for a moment before asking, "Are you really confident that you can fish in troubled waters?"
The little armored dragon nodded vigorously and replied, "Fish in troubled waters!
Fish in troubled waters! "
Seeing how confident the little armored dragon was, Qinchuan, who had always been bold, immediately made a decision. He would temporarily leave the team and head to the area where the black armored ants were to help the little armored dragon fish in troubled waters!
Thinking of this, Qinchuan immediately stopped moving forward. When the others saw Qinchuan stop, they also stopped and looked at Qinchuan curiously.
Without waiting for Qinchuan to speak, Wu Hui asked, "Lü Chuan, what new discoveries have you made?"
Qinchuan shook his head and said to the others, "My friend is in the Tian people's team. I'm worried about his safety, so I want to go to the Black Armored Ants to check on the situation."
Hearing Qinchuan's reply, Wu Hui frowned and said, "But this is too dangerous!"
They could understand Qinchuan's concern for his friend's safety, but if he were to take the risk to go to the Black Armored Ants, it would not be in line with everyone's interests.
Of course, Qinchuan knew that the others would not agree to a last-minute change in plan, so he said to the others, "I don't plan to be a burden to everyone, so I may have to act alone for the time being."
Everyone's expression changed slightly when they heard Qinchuan's reply. Ah Mei said, "Lü Chuan, your friend is in the Tian people's team. He shouldn't be in danger."
Qinchuan shook his head and said, "He has done me a favor. If I can't see him safe and sound with my own eyes, I won't be able to rest easy."
With that, Qinchuan took out the Ancient Direbeast's remains and said to Wu Hui, "I know that everyone is worried about the safety of the camp at night. I'll leave this Ancient Direbeast's remains to you for the time being. When I come back, you can return it to me."
Hearing Qinchuan's words, everyone's expression could not help but become a little complicated. They did not want Qinchuan to take the risk. On one hand, they were thinking about Qinchuan's safety. On the other hand, it was because the Ancient Direbeast's remains were in Qinchuan's hands. If Qinchuan did not come back before night, they would be in danger!
"Lü Chuan, that's not what we meant."
"I know."
Qin Chuan chuckled and said, "I can see everyone's concern for me, but I have to do this. You just have to move forward in this direction, and I will definitely come back to look for you in the future."
After saying this, Qinchuan did not give anyone a chance to speak. He turned around and left.
Everyone watched Qinchuan leave. Their expressions were very strange. They had been in the universe for nearly a thousand years, and it had been a long time since they met someone as loyal and affectionate as Qinchuan.
Wu Hui took a deep look at the Ancient Direbeast's remains, then reached out and put it away. She said to everyone, "Let's keep moving forward and wait for him to come back!"
…
After leaving the team, Qinchuan first disguised himself, then quickly rushed in the direction of the Black Beetle Ant. When he arrived, he did not rashly approach it. Instead, he crouched in the grass and observed from a distance.
At this time, the Tian people and the Protoss people had already surrounded the Black Beetle Ant. However, they were not in a hurry to attack. Instead, they were discussing the distribution of benefits. In their eyes, the Black Beetle Ant was already a turtle in a jar. There was no way to escape.
"Lucas, this Black Beetle Ant definitely has the strength of a late Combination Stage overlord. Let's work together and kill it. After we kill it, we'll each take half of its body."
Thélon looked at Lucas and calmly said his plan for the distribution of benefits. It could be said that it was quite fair.
Lucas smiled and said to Thélon, "I also have the same idea. Since no one has any objections, let's just do it. After we get rid of this big guy, we still have other things to do."
Tai Long was not surprised to hear Lucas's words. Although the Black Armored Ant was valuable, it was only an ancient beast at the late-stage of the Combination Realm, after all. It was not worth it for both sides to go to war. Hence, it was best to share the benefits peacefully.
At this time, thousands of rogue cultivators were scattered around the area. They were looking at the Protoss and the Tian people with envy. In the face of a late Combination Stage overlord, it was difficult for them to escape. However, for powerful forces like the Protoss and the Tian people, the Black Beetle Ant was like a small toy that could be crushed at any time.
Qinchuan saw that the Tian people and the Protoss were about to attack, so he asked the little Armored Dragon, "What are you going to do?"
The little Armored Dragon smiled and did not answer Qinchuan's question. Instead, it quietly left Qinchuan's mind and left a shadow beside him. Then, it quickly rushed toward the Black Beetle Ant under the cover of the grassland. Qinchuan saw this and did not stop it. With the ability of Shadow Shift, the little Armored Dragon could safely return to his side even if it was discovered. There was no danger at all.
While Qinchuan was thinking about this, the Protoss and the Tian people had already begun to move. Unexpectedly, they did not send out any Combination Stage overlords. Instead, they sent out 100 Dongxu Stage cultivators to form two large formations. They were ready to use the power of the formations to deal with the Black Beetle Ant!
The Black Beetle Ant, which was surrounded by the two large formations, obviously sensed the danger. It wanted to escape, but it was obviously too late!
The two large formations of the Protoss and the Tian people were like two precise gears, surrounding the Black Beetle Ant and launching a powerful attack!
