The Zerg Queen, who is assigned to me, wants to kill me!

Chapter 174 What are you looking at? Let's go...

Qi Min answered casually and squatted down next to Liu Yan, then, under Ling Yi's strange gaze,

First, she suddenly reached out and covered Liu Yan's mouth, then she reached out and pinched his soft belly hard.

"Uh...uh!"

Liu Yan, whose injuries had been healed by Qi Min, suddenly regained consciousness amidst the excruciating pain.

When he opened his eyes, he was met with Qi Min's calm gaze and the violently spinning fingertip.

"Ugh!...Ugh...Cough..."

Liu Yan quickly raised his hand to stop Qi Min from applying more force with his fingertips. After being released, he couldn't help but cough lightly.

Before he could speak, Qi Min's calm voice rang out.

"Awake? If you're awake, get up."

Seeing that Liu Yan was awake, Qi Min let go of him and met his somewhat puzzled expression, but did not intend to explain anything.

As I calmly got up to leave, I suddenly heard another tentative cry for help from beside me.

"Please...please don't leave me, please, save me too, don't leave me here alone as an insect...please..."

The female insect lay prostrate on the ground, looking at Qi Min and Ling Yi with pleading eyes, uttering words of supplication repeatedly.

………………

A few minutes later, Qi Min, with a calm expression, led Ling Yi and the other three insects slowly into a narrow passage.

The passage was only wide enough for one person to pass through. Qi Min led the way, followed by Ling Yi, and the other five people followed in turn.

"The hero..."

Seeing that Qi Min seemed somewhat displeased, Ling Yi belatedly realized that his actions just now seemed a bit inappropriate.

She tentatively opened her mouth in a low voice, wanting to say something, but was interrupted by Qi Min's soft voice without turning his head.

"Don't talk, I'm still a little unhappy."

Although Qi Min's tone was somewhat harsh, the lowered volume made him seem less angry.

However, Ling Yi could not see Qi Min's expression at this moment, so he could not guess his current emotional state.

After thinking for a moment, she reached out and grasped Qi Min's fingers in a conciliatory manner, and saw that he did not pull his hand away or refuse.

She gripped his hand even tighter and, holding his hand, slowly moved forward with Qi Min.

Qi Min originally didn't want to pay attention to Ling Yi, but Ling Yi took the initiative to touch him in a fawning manner, so he couldn't just shake his hand and get angry. He had no choice but to let him hold his hand like that.

Qi Min originally didn't want to pay attention to the female insect. Even when Liu Yan got up while clutching his stomach and looked over with some emotion, opening his mouth as if to say something but then stopping himself, Qi Min still didn't want to save him.

But perhaps it was the responsibility of the female soldier, or something else, that Ling Yi took the initiative to step forward and help him up.

This forced Qi Min, who originally intended to leave immediately, to stop in his tracks.

Looking back, I don't know what will happen next, so I'll just consider it taking someone down with me.

And just like that, the group that originally had only four people became five.

Qi Min led the way, and after walking for about three minutes, he suddenly stopped, let go of Ling Yi, squatted down, and seemed to grope around at his feet.

"Click..."

Qi Min followed the edge of the wall, felt his way to the crack, found a dagger, pried it open, and slowly pushed the wooden board to the side.

Using the faint glow of the plants, Ling Yi saw a square exit suddenly appear beneath their feet.

Qi Min glanced at Ling Yi, paused slightly, then put the plant away and jumped in first.

Before Ling Yi could see the expression on Qi Min's face, he saw Qi Min go down first and quickly followed him warily.

But no sooner had she jumped down than Qi Min, who was waiting beside her, embraced her tightly.

Before Ling Yi could speak, he felt a dry, warm touch suddenly cover his lips, which then disappeared in an instant.

The next instant, the faintly glowing plant reappeared in Qi Min's hand.

Looking at Qi Min's calm and composed face, Ling Yi felt happy and surprised.

Qi Min's initiative in kissing him once again finally put his previously anxious heart at ease.

After explaining, he felt dizzy and didn't hear Qi Min's follow-up response, so Ling Yi was filled with anxiety.

Even though Chen Xuan repeated to him the conversation between him and Qi Min after he fainted, Ling Yi still felt uneasy.

"What are you looking at? Come on..."

Qi Min let go of him, turned around and continued walking forward. With his back to Ling Yi's face, he frowned and pursed his lips in annoyance, cursing himself for being so weak.

Just one glance in the dim light and you couldn't resist wanting to kiss it—that's so spineless!

It's all Ling Yi's fault, he's just too damn good-looking...

Qi Min originally had no other thoughts, but when he shone the faint light...

That casual glance reminded him of those nights he spent exercising...

Wow! Those lips are so soft!

Qi Min bit her upper lip and took a slow, deep breath, trying to stop the memories from flooding her mind.

But just then, her hand, which had been hanging down, was carefully taken up by the person behind her.

For a moment, Qi Min was completely unable to maintain his composure and couldn't help but respond to Ling Yi with forceful finger movements.

Ling Yi felt the force Qi Min was giving him through his fingertips, and his brows relaxed as he lowered his head in silent joy.

The careful movements of the people behind them as they disembarked seemed to create a silent environment for them.

About two minutes later, Qi Min led them down the stairs to an underground building.

Qi Min put away the plants in his hand, and then touched something, and suddenly the empty building lit up with tiny flames.

Ling Yi looked around and saw that the building, supported by several stone pillars, had a circular, clustered shape on top.

The supporting stone pillars are carved with unidentified beasts and intricate patterns.

There are vines with strange faces, and there are humanoid eagle heads with wings, which look eerie and mysterious.

In the center of the building, there were several tilted boxes, which appeared to be made of wood.

The four corners of the boxes were inlaid with exquisite metal decorations, and the surfaces were also engraved with intricate patterns and various strange beasts.

The box in the middle, in particular, is decorated and carved with intricate and exquisite details, making it stand out from the surrounding boxes.

"where is this place?"

Chen Xuan looked around in surprise, and finally looked at Qi Min and asked.

Qi Min heard him, but didn't want to pay attention to him. He simply let go of Ling Yi and walked to the very center of the building.

Judging from his destination, it must be those unidentified boxes.

However, just as Ling Yi was watching Qi Min and preparing to pry open the middle box, he suddenly paused. He seemed to hear breathing that was getting closer and closer.

Chen Xuan heard this too, turned her head to look at Ling Yi, and after seeing him nod in confirmation, she immediately turned back to be on guard.

"My lord, it seems like some insects are coming..." Ling Yi stepped forward and whispered to Qi Min.

Qi Min stopped prying it open with the dagger and listened quietly. Sure enough, he heard breathing and footsteps getting closer and closer.

…………

"Huh...huh..."

Luo Haoyu was breathing heavily as he carefully ran down the steps, which were only wide enough for one person to pass at a time.

He was relentlessly chased by the castle's butler, and only after finally shaking them off did he realize that it was getting dark outside.

Thinking of the general information the dungeon had given him, Luo Haoyu had no time to rest and immediately followed the information provided by the dungeon, winding his way to the underground building.

But with the light right in front of him, Luo Haoyu had just stepped down the last step and hadn't even had time to look around.

I felt a strong gust of wind come over me, and then I was knocked to the ground with my hands twisted behind my back.

"Ah...who! Let go..."
