Yang Jindi hated Qin Yi to her core. This brat must have done that on purpose! How could it be such a coincidence that the liquid sprayed all over her, otherwise?

That disgusting thing… If Gu Cheng wasn't a water ability user, she would still be smelly. As it was, she was completely drenched at the moment and was very uncomfortable.

Qin Yi sneered, “What's the matter? You didn't have enough? That mutated ant's blood is good stuff. If you want more, I don't mind helping you.”

When Yang Jindi heard that, she immediately recalled the repulsive taste in her mouth and vomited again. She vomited everything in her stomach, until there was only acid water left inside.

When Qin Yi saw that Yang Jindi wasn't speaking, she didn't look at Ma De, turning directly to Gu Cheng, “Village chief, you just have to tell me if you agree or not.”

Gu Cheng was stunned and looked into Qin Yi's phoenix eyes—he always felt that all his darkness was seen by this youth before him, and that he couldn't hide any secrets from Qin Yi.

That wasn't a great feeling.

He really wanted the crystal cores, and if he didn't have the crystal cores by tomorrow, he couldn't even begin to imagine the consequences.

“I… I agree.”

Gu Cheng gritted his teeth and agreed to it in the end.

Qin Yi wasn't surprised that Gu Cheng compromised, as she knew that the thing in the ancestral hall probably needed crystal cores.

But what could it be? A mutated beast? Zombie or beastman?

Meanwhile, Ma De was unwilling and his hatred towards Qin Yi intensified. He had forgotten that he was the first person to beg Qin Yi for help, even wanting to flee when Qin Yi was fighting with the mutated ant.

Qin Yi could obviously sense that murderous stare, but her expression remained aloof—it wasn't so easy to kill her.

Qin Yi looked up at the sky and spoke, “If you guys want more crystal cores, then you should have taken action earlier. Three o'clock is when the mutated ants will be active, beginning to wake up.”

Qin Yi had actually seen this kind of mutated ant in her previous life before, but she did not recall it at the start. After all, she had seen many mutated beasts in the past.

Gu Cheng and the others still believed Qin Yi's words; this youth was young, but he seemed to be stronger and more experienced than all of them.

But what Qin Yi said caused Ma De and the rest to bear grudges. This chap already knew the weakness of these mutated ants, yet he didn't tell them.

Qin Yi was really crafty.

Qin Yi did not care, beginning to kill the ants and collecting the crystal cores with Gu Cheng.

The mutated ants were not easy to deal with, even when they weren't awake.

They had a hard exterior, and even Qin Yi couldn't move them one bit.

They could only wake them up one by one, then let Qin Yi deal with them. The remaining people were in charge of digging for the crystal cores.

This made some of those people who were originally dissatisfied shut their mouths, since they just had to dig for the crystal cores.

But Ma De and Yang Jindi were unlucky. No matter where these two people were, that smelly liquid would always spray on their bodies when Qin Yi killed a mutated ant.

Everyone could see that the seemingly well-behaved youth was actually black-hearted, doing it intentionally, but they said nothing.

What could they say? Qin Yi could just shut them up by saying that she didn't do it on purpose.

Ma De and Yang Jindi felt extremely disgusted and really wanted to strangle the smiling youth.

However, they needed to help out. Gu Cheng had always been very strict about this, and those who didn't help would not get any crystal cores.

So the two people could only endure and think about how to teach Qin Yi a lesson after splitting the crystal cores.
