Chapter 372 – The Hunted Ant Queen

　　Ant Queen? Cao Yuan saw the giant ant and spoke in surprise.

　　An Qingyu’s eyes narrowed slightly, it seemed that those paper people were the guardians of this Fengdu, and after the giant ant was chased by Seven Nights into Fengdu, it exposed its trail and attracted the paper people to chase it.

　　Since this was the case, could the Seven Nights be nearby as well? Baili Fatty looked around.

　　For the time being, I don’t see it. An Qingyu spoke in a deep voice, but with such a big commotion of the paper people chasing after the ant queen, if he was in the vicinity, he would definitely see it and rush over this way.

　　In other words, we can find Seven Nights by sneaking after the ant queen?

　　Compared to running around like headless flies, this should be the most reliable method. Anqing Yu nodded, however, we must keep our distance from the ant queen and the paper man, or else we will be the ones in bad luck.

　　The four of them nodded and waited until the crowd of paper people chasing after the Ant Queen completely disappeared above the Hanging Palace before they stepped away and ran along the winding path in the direction of the Hanging Palace.

　　At the end of the path was a series of suspended huge stone slabs that extended from the ground all the way to the red palace in the sky, like steps.

　　The three Baili Chubby people stepped straight onto the first stone slab, these stone slabs were also suspended somehow, bearing the weight of three people without the slightest wobble, they stared closely at the hanging palace above their heads, and flew upwards.

　　At the end of the team, Li Deyang similarly took a step onto the first stone slab.

　　Buzz–!

　　After Li Deyang’s paw stepped onto the first stone slab, the stone slab vibrated with the naked eye.

　　His body suddenly paused in place.

　　Calan …… Lin Qiye muttered as he felt the characters in his hand.

　　Calan raised his head to gaze into Lin Qiye’s eyes, and when he heard him call out his name, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth and he nodded.

　　Dang-!

　　A muffled sound came from outside the hall as if a vicious battle was taking place, and Lin Qiye jerked his head up to look outside the hall door, his face slightly changing.

　　Are you a human?

　　Lin Qiye turned back to look at Jia Lan and asked this question seriously.

　　Jia Lan froze and after hesitating for a moment, he nodded his head once again.

　　Good. Lin Qiye’s gaze landed outside the grand hall, I’ll take you out.

　　He grabbed Jia Lan’s wrist and quickly walked through the array of bronze armor, rushing towards the door of the great hall, however, just before running two steps, Jia Lan’s feet stumbled and nearly fell to the ground.

　　Lin Qiye turned back and seemed to have thought of something.

　　”Sorry, I forgot that you aren’t very good at walking after lying in a coffin for so long.” After hesitating for a moment, Lin Qiye took off the twin swords behind his back and crouched down slightly with his back to the blue-clothed girl.

　　Come up, I’ll carry you.

　　Jia Lan froze in place for a moment, her cheeks slightly flushed, she didn’t squirm and graciously climbed onto Lin Qiye’s back, wrapping her arms around his shoulders.

　　Light breathing brushed by Lin Qiye’s ears, through the thin black shirt, he could clearly feel the body temperature of the young girl’s body, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and there was only one thought left in his mind ……

　　Well, sure enough, alive!

　　He picked up the twin swords on the ground and was about to leave, just at that moment, Caran behind him gently patted his shoulder and reached out to point to the wooden rack in the corner of the main hall.

　　Above that wooden rack hung a yellowish hardwood bow, and a quiver of arrows woven from bamboo leaves.

　　Is that yours? Lin Qiye turned his head and asked.

　　Jia Lan behind him nodded.

　　Lin Qiye quickly stepped forward and took out the hardwood bow and quiver of arrows directly from the wooden frame and handed them to Jia Lan, who gazed at the hardwood bow and gently stroked it for a long time before solemnly slinging it on his back.

　　Lin Qiye carried Jia Lan on his back and quickly ran out of the hall, Li Yi Fei and Ah Zhu who were boredly guarding the hall door were shocked and opened their mouths wide when they saw him come out with a woman on his back.

　　Seven nights …… you, where did you …… abduct this from? Li Yi Fei opened his mouth in confusion, one person went in, how did two people come out?

　　Lin Qiye shook his head, there is no time to explain, I will go out first, the rest back to the hospital and then talk.

　　Li Yifei saw Lin Qiye’s expression so serious, hmmm, see you in the hospital then.

　　Two magical glows blossomed from A Zhu and Li Yi Fei’s bodies respectively, in an instant they disappeared, the door of the temple that had lost its support slowly closed, and Lin Qiye’s figure shifted back to the outside of the temple.

　　He looked back and saw that in the center of the six heavenly palaces, above the massive vermillion hanging palace, several figures were running step by step upwards along the hanging stone slabs, about to enter it.

　　Lin Qiye didn’t hesitate in the slightest and similarly sped towards that vermillion palace.

　　He ran all the way to the front of the hanging stone slabs, only to see Li Deyang standing dumbfounded on top of the first stone slab, looking up at the hanging palace, not knowing what he was thinking.

　　Uncle Li, why are you staring blankly here? Lin Qiye ran to his side and asked suspiciously.

　　Ah? Oh …… nothing. Li Deyang shook his head and reached out to point to the hanging palace above his head, those three have already gone in, the ant queen is also in there, so hurry up and go help them.

　　Lin Qiye nodded, then realized something, You don t go?

　　Go. Li Deyang looked down at the stone slabs under his feet and slowly opened his mouth, just …… I might need some more time.

　　Lin Qiye hesitated for a moment before patting him on the shoulder, Uncle Li, your realm is too low, it is already very good to be able to walk here, leave the next one to us, you better not take the risk.

　　The corners of Li Deyang’s mouth twitched slightly, he spoke without any good humor: go go go, don’t bury me here!

　　His afterglow glanced at the young girl behind Lin Qiye, suddenly froze, and a surprised color emerged in his eyes, this is ……

　　rescued from a heavenly palace, the specifics will be said later, I’ll go up first. Lin Qiye took a step, his figure swept toward the palace overhead in the darkness like a stunner, and he was gone in a moment.

　　Li Deyang looked at their departing backs in a daze and let out a long sigh.

　　He slowly took a step and stepped on top of the second stone slab.

　　Buzz–!

　　The stone slab shook once again, and this time, the amplitude of the tremor was even greater than when he stepped on the first stone slab ……

　　Chubby Baili chased after the Ant Queen and the paper man, stepping onto the last stone slab and standing before this vermillion colored Imperial Palace.

　　At the top of the imperial palace, a white giant ant was climbing upward rapidly along the red giant pillar, and a large number of paper people were floating in the air, surrounding the top of the imperial palace, like a white paper cloud, but it was as if they were afraid of the palace, not daring to enter the palace’s range.

　　As if she had anticipated this scene, the Ant Queen climbed on the topmost wall of the palace and roared silently at the paper cloud in the sky.
