I was already at the end of my strength, and my steps grew slower and slower.

The intense pain eroded my will, and I nearly collapsed to the ground in that mont.

With a thud, the huge snake head that had been flying through the air behind

fell to the ground.

It was, after all, a dying body, and after chasing

down half a street in the pitch-black night, it had finally run out of breath in a pool of blood.

I took shelter in a tiny alleyway, my knees in excruciating pain, my ankles hurt a lot as well.

I couldn't stand at all and had to lean against the wall, eventually collapsing to sit on the extrely cold ground.

Xiao Yitian seed to sense my condition, clutching my clothes tightly with her little hands as tears surged even more fiercely.

I gently patted her little head over and over, my mind a tangled ss as I thought of a safe place to go.

After the White Snake had died, the weird and eerie Demon Qi's oppressive feeling still enveloped the entire town at night.

Even if we went back now, we would likely encounter another soul-hooking snake demon.

The best thod, actually, was to find soone to ask for help.

I had left my phone charging on the table while sleeping, and I didn't have it with

now.

I couldn't contact Yu Longting, nor Yu Rongling.

I frowned, touched the silver python pattern on my cheongsam, and softly called out, "Yu Longting, where are you? Can you co over?"

The delicate and dazzling silver python embroidered on the cheongsam shimred, radiating a silver glow as if it were alive.

It was as if cloaked in a layer of soft moonlight.

But a long ti passed.

He didn't appear.

Could it be he was busy with sothing important and couldn't extricate himself?

Suddenly.

I felt the already cold and sibilant air grow even colder.

"Big brother is dead," an odd hissing voice ca, and when I sneaked a glance, I saw a strange figure holding a lantern next to the huge snake head on the road.

That person was dressed in ancient robes, but the neck and head protruding from its collar were those of a snake, vividly colored and patterned.

He was holding a lantern that emitted a ghostly green light, and his snake eyes were filled with a sinister glare.

Another similar snake-headed figure erged from the dark, holding a lantern as well, "Who did this? Besides our ancestors, there actually is such a powerful expert in Spring Wind Town."

"Could it be the Snake Lord?"

"The wounds look like the Snake Lord's doing."

"Big brother didn't happen to hook the soul of the little prince from the Snake Lord's family, did he?"

"Tsk, really courting death. I just caught a child; I can report back now."

The two of them conversed for a while and then, one after the other, they ford a team and walked briskly on the densely night-covered streets.

One of them was holding a chain, which trailed behind them for two or three ters to a small barefooted boy who followed them with a vacant expression in his eyes.

I'm sorry.

I can't even protect myself now, let alone save you.

Watching the boy leave, I imdiately guessed what was happening.

It seed that another child from soone's family had their soul hooked away, turning into a second Li Yitian, dull and foolish like soone with autism.

Seeing that these two snake demons could go back to report, the restaurant should be safe.

Just as I was planning to go back, soone suddenly patted my shoulder, "Hey, what are you doing out here in the middle of the night?"

"Don't co any closer, or I won't..." be polite.

I took out the Peace pouch and stepped back, preparing to counterattack, but then I saw a familiar face.

Yu Rongling mocked , "Sister-in-law, you're really too timid. Brave enough to wander around in the middle of the night, yet you get scared like this when I tap you."

"You jerk... scaring soone could scare them to death," I said as my knees gave way and I fell back again, my arms trembling so much I could barely hold Xiao Yitian securely.

Xiao Yitian stood on her own two feet, taking the force of my body onto herself, "This brother, my mother is seriously injured, she's very uncomfortable, you cannot speak ill of her."

"Mother... mother? Weren't you a perfect beauty before you t my brother? And you've had another person's child?" Yu Rongling exclaid, his eyes those of soone seeing a traitor.

I was so annoyed that I simply went along with his words, "That's right, what about it? Your brother has already acknowledged my daughter, are you still going to stand in for your brother and think I'm not worthy?"
