Celestial Beast Taming

Chapter 236: Chapter 151: The Maiden Beneath Dragon Cliff

Qin Ruyue was summoned to Zhong Yi’s room. When he told her to take Shi Mi out of her Soul Base, she grew intensely curious.

She couldn’t understand why Zhong Yi had kept Shi Mi alive for so long.

If it had been up to her, she would have killed Shi Mi ages ago.

’Is Zhong Yi planning to use that Four-winged Fairy to control Shi Mi, too!?’

Qin Ruyue knew very well how much Shi Mi despised her.

’If Shi Mi becomes my colleague, there’s no way we’ll ever get along.’

Though she didn’t know what Zhong Yi planned to do with Shi Mi, Qin Ruyue still placed the tightly web-bound woman neatly before him.

"Young Master, Shi Mi’s Bone Element Bizarre-type has its own toxins. Her resistance to poison is stronger than I anticipated."

"My earlier assessment was slightly off. I can only control her for about one more day, at most."

As Qin Ruyue explained Shi Mi’s condition, her gaze involuntarily drifted to the giant Ant Queen sprawled on the floor.

It was the first time Qin Ruyue had ever seen an Ant Queen so massive, yet still at the Mortal Beast Tier.

’Is this enormous Ant Queen one of Zhong Yi’s Guardian Beasts, too?’

’If so, then aside from his Order Beast, Zhong Yi must have contracted at least three other Guardian Beasts.’

’Contracting at least three Guardian Beasts while his Order Beast is still at the Mortal Beast Tier...’

’To Qin Ruyue, that was completely reckless!’

’But every Guardian Beast Zhong Yi has contracted, from Hong Ji, who can devour a Rule Deceit Embryo, to the Four-winged Fairy he used to bind me...’

’Every single one of them is anything but simple.’

’I wonder what special Ability this giant Ant Queen possesses.’

Zhong Yi noticed Qin Ruyue’s stare, but he had no intention of telling her about the Fertility Creation Ant Queen.

"Sister Yue, you won’t need to control Shi Mi any longer."

"Go ahead and feed Shi Mi to this Guardian Beast of mine."

Qin Ruyue’s expression froze when she heard Zhong Yi’s words. She almost thought she had misheard.

Zhong Yi was going to use Shi Mi as food for this giant Ant Queen.

Qin Ruyue could never have imagined that Shi Mi, her constant rival, would come to such a pathetic end.

At the same time, however, Zhong Yi’s words made Qin Ruyue let out a huge sigh of relief.

’As long as Zhong Yi doesn’t plan to bring Shi Mi into his service, everything is fine.’

’If he had wanted to recruit her, that would have been a real headache for me.’

Qin Ruyue commanded her Night-Cutting Spider to produce dozens of spiderlings. They had just finished carrying the web-bound Shi Mi over to the Fertility Creation Ant Queen when the Fertility Creation Ant Queen began to twitch its sharp mouthparts, unable to restrain itself.

The live food Zhong Yi had previously fed the Fertility Creation Ant Queen was beneath its notice; it hadn’t even produced a single Ant Successor.

But now, faced with Shi Mi, if not for the fact that its body was too bloated to move, the Fertility Creation Ant Queen would have snatched her up and devoured her in an instant.

The Fertility Creation Ant Queen’s feeding process was not a pretty sight. A gruesome, grating sound filled the room.

As the Fertility Creation Ant Queen devoured her, Shi Mi struggled violently.

But under the full power of the Night-Cutting Spider’s restraints, her struggles were futile.

Protected by the Night-Cutting Spider, the Fertility Creation Ant Queen was unharmed by Shi Mi’s thrashing.

In her merged state with the Centipede Bone Tomb Princess, Shi Mi stood over three meters tall.

After swallowing Shi Mi and her fused Centipede Bone Tomb Princess, the Fertility Creation Ant Queen’s abdomen swelled to more than double its previous size.

The abdomen pulsed with such high frequency that the air around it crackled with explosive bangs.

It didn’t take long for the Fertility Creation Ant Queen to gestate its new successor.

In less than half an hour, it produced a crystalline Insect Egg nearly two meters tall.

Through the translucent shell, one could faintly make out Shi Mi’s form within the Insect Egg.

The Fertility Creation Ant Queen had chewed the fused form of Shi Mi and the Centipede Bone Tomb Princess to pieces before swallowing.

Inside the egg, Shi Mi had been reassembled by the Fertility Creation Ant Queen.

Two antennae, characteristic of the Ant Race, now grew from her head. In addition to her hands and feet, six ant-like legs sprouted from her back.

Transformed into an Ant Successor, Shi Mi now slept silently within the egg.

Through his connection with the Fertility Creation Ant Queen, Zhong Yi learned that for Shi Mi, who was at the Mythical Tier Peak, to hatch, the egg would need to incubate for nearly two weeks.

To Zhong Yi, that wasn’t a long time at all.

Once the Fertility Creation Ant Queen’s Tier and Quality increased, the incubation speed for Ant Successors would also improve significantly.

Zhong Yi had known about the Fertility Creation Ant Queen’s Ability before he formed the Contract.

But Qin Ruyue was completely unfamiliar with the Fertility Creation Ant Queen. Staring at the scene before her, she was speechless for a long time.

It was obvious what had happened: after devouring Shi Mi, the Ant Queen had reborn her in some special way.

It had transformed Shi Mi into a strange, humanoid insectoid creature.

’Zhong Yi let the Ant Queen treat Shi Mi as food... he could just as easily let it treat me as food.’

Qin Ruyue was secretly grateful that her own Talent was better than Shi Mi’s.

’My Night-Cutting Spider has devoured a Rule Deceit Embryo and grasped the Power of Rules, and I possess an Emperor’s Tool.’

’If Zhong Yi hadn’t found me valuable, I’m afraid I would have met the same fate as Shi Mi.’

’Eaten by this Ant Queen and transformed into a humanoid creature of the Ant Race.’
