"Good you thief Jiang Liu Er, you have finally come to find your snake grandfather!"
The head of the snake faction was both angry and happy. He was angry that Jiang Liu Er had come so late, but he was happy because he was about to accomplish a great feat.
By then, the wolf king would definitely appreciate him even more.
The snake's king lifted the Faming monk with one hand, while the other hand grabbed the Fang Tianhuaxi spear and walked out of the abandoned temple ground.
He truly saw a young man not far away.
"You are Jiang Liu Er?" The snake's king's vertical pupils flashed with surprise, he never expected Jiang Liu Er to be so young: "It's you, this thief, who pretending to be a green snake demon deceived me?!
Then, he saw Hu Yu Yu and instantly felt overjoyed: "Madam is also here! Good well... It is indeed you who took the Madam away! Good, good... The thief is here, and so is the Madam. That's two great merits!"
Hu Yu Yu frowned coldly: "Who is your wife? The wolf Wujili hurt my mother and abducted me up the mountain. He dares to be my husband?"
The head of the Snake City smiled nonchalantly, "Madam, everyone within a hundred miles knows that my king is the mightiest demon king. Other than marrying my king, do you have any other choice?"
He is determined that Hu Yu Yu will become the wife of the wolf Wujili king, so he is still polite when talking to Hu Yu Yu.
But with Jiang Liu Er, he is not polite at all.
"Hmph! Jiang Liu Er, quickly get down and kneel on the ground. Let me, the snake grandpa, bind you back and have the king deal with you personally!" The snake's king raised the Fang Tianhuaxi spear with one hand and pointed directly at Jiang Liu Er, shouting.
Faming Monk, seeing that Jiang Liu Er had really come, was moved in his heart, but also some heart like dead ashes.
He is advanced in years.
Death is nothing.
But Jiang Liu Er was saved from the river by him, and he watched him grow up. Although he and Jiang Liu Er have no blood relations, nor a master-apprentice relationship, he treats Jiang Liu Er as if he were his own son.
The most he hoped for was that Jiang Liu Er would stay far away from all this trouble.
Finding a place of peace to spend the rest of his life would be enough.
But...
Jiang Liu Er has arrived.
"Faming Monk, I will save you!" Jiang Liu Er seems to ignore the snake's head's command, asserting confidently: "This matter began with me, and you, senior monk, were involved because of me. It should be me who saves you."
"The fool, Amituofo." Faming Monk was helpless.
"Jiang Liu Er! Have you not heard a word I've said?"
"Snake Head is angry: 'Snake Grandpa didn't ask you to come here to chat!'"
Jiang Liu Er only then directed his gaze at the snake's head.
He said, "You can capture me, but first you must release Faming Monk!"
"Snake Head coldly laughs: 'Do you even have to negotiate?'"
He had no patience left. He raised Faming Monk with one hand, was wrapped in rolling demonic qi, twisted his face into a grotesque expression, and charged Jiang Liu Er with his long spear.
"The king only said to capture him alive, a limb missing or broken, it's still alive!"
"Snake Head stepped to several dozens of meters away."
Rolling demonic winds came face to face towards Jiang Liu Er.
Jiang Liu Er's feet kicked up a breeze, and he leaped backwards into the air. Under the astonished gaze of the Snake Head, he slipped into a bamboo grove behind.
"Elder, wait for me!" Hu Yu Yu followed Jiang Liu Er at the same time.
"Don't think you can run away!" Seeing that he was about to lose two big merits, the snake's king was about to chase after, but suddenly felt something wrong and stopped in a hurry: "Wait a second, why would he come here and run away?"
There must be a trap!
The snake's head immediately became vigilant, but could he really not pursue him?
His mind was in turmoil.
Caught in a dilemma.
"Hmph, I have a hostage in my hand, and even if there's a trap, I can use the hostage to counter it. Does Jiang Liu Er really want to see his lifesaver being killed by me, the snake grandpa?"
The snake's head dived into the bamboo grove.
He saw Jiang Liu Er running away into the distance, and was startled by why the thief was running so fast. Without a moment's delay, he boosted his demonic powers and caught up with Jiang Liu Er soon afterward. But for some reason, Hu Yu Yu had disappeared, and he didn't have time to think about it.
"You can't run away!" The snake's head struck the ground with its tail, pushing forward numbing distances, before delivering a strike with his spear aimed at Jiang Liu Er.
Whoosh——
"Hm?"
The sudden sound of breaking through the air caused the snake's head to feel chilling.
He hurriedly looked back and saw a bamboo lance flying towards him at an astonishing speed.
One end of the bamboo was sharpened to a point that even his scales stood on end.
His leather armor and scales are not enough to resist such a sharp bamboo!
"Little tricks!" He stopped his movement and turned backhand to cut.
The Fang Tianhuaxi spear sliced through the flying bamboo lance cleanly.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh——
Three bamboo spears came in, and the snake's head forcefully inhaled a breath, blowing out ferocious demonic winds to divert the spears' direction. But what shocked him was that the bamboo spears, once diverted, suddenly twisted mid-air and flew towards him again!
"You meddlesome monk, you're quite a nuisance, move aside!" He threw away Faming Monk and held the spear with both hands, slicing through the three bamboo spears one after another.
Before he could even catch his breath, his vertical pupils suddenly contracted.
He saw Jiang Liu Er standing in the depths of the bamboo grove.
Jiang Liu Er pointed a finger like a sword, and behind him were hanging fifteen bamboo spears!
Each one was pointed directly at the snake's head's heart!
"What kind of skills did this thief learn from?" The snake's head was getting goosebumps.
A monster with a hundred years of cultivation would not know many magic arts.
How could a twelve-year-old boy like Jiang Liu Er master the art of controlling bamboo?
Whoosh whoosh whoosh——
Whoosh whoosh whoosh——
Fifteen bamboo spears shot out from the depths of the bamboo grove at a tremendous speed, surprising the snake's head so much that he immediately tightened his defenses. But in the next moment, he suddenly let out a scream of agony.
"Aaahhh!!!”
He looked down and saw a red fox had sneaked up to his feet. The fox bit off the tip of his tail fiercely.
In front of him, the bamboo spears were approaching at an incredible speed. He couldn't deal with Hu Yu Yu, so he could only endure the pain and swing his long spear to fend off the attacks from the bamboo spears.
Taking advantage of the moment, Hu Yu Yu transformed into her human form and carried Faming Monk away, running off.
"Hu Yu Yu! Take Faming Monk further away!"
Jiang Liu Er took out his bone staff and chased after the bamboo spears towards the snake's head.
He knew that if he didn't deal with this big black python, no matter how far he ran, he would be caught up by the other party.
Jiang Liu Er has already decided to kill!
Need to solve this snake demon as soon as possible!
As the snake's head just cut through the eighth bamboo spear, he saw Jiang Liu Er leap into the air, grabbing a strange large bone in his hand and smashing it down on his head and face with all his strength.
The snake's head dare not take any chances, and had to retreat to the side.
At this moment, the corner of his eye saw Jiang Liu Er still had a sword on his back.
Snake Head found it somewhat amusing.
It's a bit funny. He has a sword, but he still uses a big bone instead.
However…
Clang! The long sword on Jiang Liu Er's back flew out of its scabbard, rapidly twisting into position with the tip pointing directly at the snake's head, flying towards him along with the other bamboo spears, especially the long sword, which was incredibly fast!
"Just now was that just a feigned attack? The bamboo spears were just to distract me? The sword not yet drawn is the real kill?"
This phrase flashed through the snake's head.
The long sword flew closely past the spear shaft, sparking eye-blistering sparks.
The snake's head widened its eyes.
Too close!
Too fast!
"Puff –"
"A piercing sound —" The sharp tip of the sword pierced through the leather armor and the black snake scales. The snake's head's back was exposed, showing most of the bleeding blade.
