Quick Transmigration: The Mad Beauty Refuses to Be the Scapegoat! Chapter 242 - 23: Berserk Junior Sister Refuses to Be Cannon

Jiang Lai, upon hearing the voice, imdiately ran along the small path by the sea of flowers.

Hiding in the flowers, he looked ahead and saw countless Poison King Bees swarming out of a pitch-black cave, enveloped together like a black whirlwind, dark and oppressive, accompanied by a terrifying sound, causing the surrounding petals to tremble.

Jiang Lai silently held Pudding in his arms, because he heard that if there’s a High-level spirit beast around, it can intimidate Low-level spirit beasts.

These Poison King Bees aren’t much one by one, but only such a large swarm can rule. Jiang Lai dared not provoke them and shrank in the flowers, listening to the ’ping ping pang pang’ sounds from outside.

Looking up, it was the people from the Eight Desolates Sect dealing with the Poison King Bees.

The people from the Eight Desolates Sect should have been prepared in advance, taking antidotes beforehand, so even if stung, they wouldn’t be poisoned.

The Sun and Moon Sect should also know Mu Wu’s plan; when the Poison King Bees sward out, they imdiately squatted in the grass and did not move.

These poisonous bees rely on the movent of objects to determine their position, so as long as one hides well without moving before they are discovered, they will generally not be attacked.

Both groups were prepared.

After resisting for a while, the people from the Eight Desolates Sect sprinkled potions on themselves, as they had treasures to save their lives. As expected, the Poison King Bees quickly ford a group, hovering at the entrance and refusing to leave.

At this mont, Jiang Lai silently patted Pudding’s head and whispered.

"See the person in white clothes? Go, bite him."

Pudding silently dashed out, and in the next second.

"Ah——!!"

A scream echoed, and the Poison King Bees at the entrance imdiately sward into the flower bushes like a black cloud pressing down. The disciples of the Sun and Moon Sect hiding in the grass all ran out, powerless to fight back, only able to scream helplessly.

Soon, the buzzing mixed with screams grew more distant, and Jiang Lai, taking advantage of the Poison King Bees being drawn away from the cave entrance, sneaked into the bee cave.

Ahead was pitch black, but fortunately, cultivation’s night vision ability was quite good. Jiang Lai didn’t walk far before seeing the interior structure clearly.

At the end of a straight, deep passage was a massive, maze-like hexagonal beehive, symtrically containing nurous hexagonal openings for the Poison King Bees to enter and exit. From afar, it looked like a giant beehive magnified a thousand tis, with its huge openings enough for an adult to easily enter and exit.

Jiang Lai patted Pudding’s dog head.

"Co on, it’s up to you."

The interior of the beehive was as intertwined and complex as a maze. Rushing in recklessly and getting lost would an no escape once the Poison King Bees returned.

Pudding led the way in front, and Jiang Lai entered one of the openings. Just as he was about to go deeper inside, a familiar voice ca from behind.

"Wait for ."

Looking back, it was Second Senior Brother, Wu Lie.

"Why are you here?"

"Seeing you coming, I followed."

Jiang Lai had no ti to chat, furrowing his brow and beckoning.

"Follow closely, we need to get the bee royal jelly quickly."

The Poison King Bee Venom was a rare treasure in the world, not only extending one’s life but most importantly capable of detoxifying fire poison.

Jiang Lai could still rember the small snake he had contracted, poisoned by Mu Wu’s magic pet scorpion. This poison was extrely difficult to resolve, and only Poison King Bee Venom might save it.

Pudding’s little nose twitched as it raced forward through countless interwoven hexagonal passages.

Jiang Lai sped up to follow, feeling dizzy from the winding path, unsure how long they had been walking. Finally, Pudding stopped, but seeing its body hunched low and baring teeth, barking at the front, Jiang Lai understood.

Soone, like her, was searching for treasure in this Poison King Bee Nest.

Turning around, sure enough, Mu Wu was right in front of her.

And right between them, in a mismatched passage, a clear sight of a bunch of soft-bodied creatures squirming could be seen.

It seed they had indeed entered the beehive’s interior, the Queen Bee’s hiding place.

The Poison King Bee honey could be collected outside, but at this mont, both were inside the beehive, with the sa goal: Poison King Bee Venom.

The treasure stored in the deepest part.

The two exchanged a glance, and Mu Wu noticed Wu Lie behind Jiang Lai, instantly suppressing the surge of killing intent.

"If we fight now, neither of us might get out. How about this, we split what’s inside, and settle any grudges once we’re outside."

What a flexible heroine she was.

Jiang Lai smiled.

"Alright, let’s go in together."

The space inside was only enough for the two of them, and right in the middle of where the Poison King Bee larvae were cocooned, clusters of bee royal jelly hung suspended above.

Mu Wu looked at Jiang Lai.

"You first, or first, your choice."

"Together, then."

With that, Jiang Lai leapt forward, grabbed a piece of bee royal jelly, and stuffed it into his storage space.

Mu Wu was collecting on the other side; she only took two pieces, then looked back to see Jiang Lai delving further in. She sneered, sprinkled pre-prepared dicine over the cocooned larvae.

In an instant, the previously slow larvae seed suddenly stimulated, crazily wriggling and emitting a "zzzz" sound.

The sound grew louder, alerting the deeper Queen Bee.

The Queen Bee, feeling the beehive’s intrusion, emitted a sharp, piercing sound to call the far-off Poison King Bees back.

After doing this, Mu Wu turned and retraced her steps, laughing.

She had already calculated the ti; she could leave before the Poison King Bees returned.

As for Jiang Lai, if his greed led to his demise, no one else could be blad.

With these thoughts, Mu Wu turned and hurried back, not daring to waste a second, and just as everything was going smoothly and she was about to leave the beehive, she suddenly stopped in disbelief, staring at the blocked path ahead.

What’s going on?

She clearly rembered this being a straight path. How had it gotten blocked?

The originally planned escape was thwarted by this sudden dead end.

She took a deep breath, forcing herself to stay calm, and released her magic pet scorpion to lead the way again.

But no matter what, every ti she thought the exit was near, she’d turn a corner and discover countless more passages in front of her.

Her breathing quickened, panic rising involuntarily.

This shouldn’t be happening.

The Fire Spirit Scorpion had been her contracted magic pet in the past life, excelling at pathfinding aside from attacking. That was how she had entered the beehive’s depths so quickly.

But now, sohow, it seed affected by sothing, repeatedly leading her into dead ends.

Soon, Mu Wu completely lost trust in it, directly retracted it into her space, planning to force through those wax-made hive walls.
