Chapter 302: Immortal Venerable, Fallen to Demonic Path 31
Little Red hung its head, disheartened.
This snake could breathe fire and possessed boundless strength.
The snakes of this world were anything but normal.
Indeed, it wasn’t as though Little Red lacked fighting ability.
After all, in its previous plane, Little Red was quite the dominant force, strutting around with impunity.
But alas, this was the Cultivation Plane.
Here, even a snake could engage in cultivation.
This Double-headed Snake had lived for over a thousand years and was as cunning as a human. How could an ordinary snake like Little Red easily defeat it?
It is known that none of the Guardian Divine Beasts tasked with protecting Divine Artifacts are weak.
Little Red tucked its tail and scurried behind Su Yan
"Sssssssss!!!"
Help! Help!
It was forever pursued by the Double-headed Snake, which was spewing out fierce flames, seemingly determined to burn Little Red into charred snake skewers.
Su Yan lifted her hand, concentrating all her inner power, her palm transforming into a blade.
With a swift hand motion, she slashed towards the snake’s eyes.
Slash, her hand plunged in.
Blood slowly spilled out.
The snake writhed in sudden pain, while its other head, previously chasing Little Red, now rounded on Su Yan with a bite.
Su Yan’s hand remained unwithdrawn, with power still brewing in its grasp.
The next second, boom!
The snake’s eye burst open, blowing apart its entire cranium.
The head then fell to the side.
Su Yan’s actions drove the other snake head into a frenzy.
Its massive body began thrashing wildly in the space, roaring, flinging itself about.
With its movement, the once-solid cave began to shake, and numerous stones started to fall.
Su Yan turned to look at Xiao Yu standing in the corner.
Just then, a large rock plummeted straight towards him.
She stepped on the snake’s head, somersaulted, and positioned herself next to Feng Yu, embracing him. With one hand, she cleaved the rock in two.
Feng Yu gazed at the woman who was holding him.
Harboring certain sentiments, he spoke out, his voice laden with a sigh, uttering slowly
"Sect Hierarch, Xiao Yu is just a male pet, that’s all."
Compared to her own life and safety, he, a mere male pet, really was not significant.
Thus, there was no need for her to go to such lengths to protect him.
Su Yan glanced at him,
"I know"
Even as she spoke, she still stood in front of him, protecting him behind her.
Feng Yu fell silent, merely observing her.
The mission given to him by the Sect Leader of Qingyu Mountain was straightforward.
Eliminate the tyrannical Demon Sect Leader and restore peace to the Cultivation World.
He knew that if there had been any other way, the Sect Leader would not have resorted to seeking his assistance for this task.
Even though the current Su Yan had her core replaced, killing her would allow him to return and continue his Pure Cultivation life of calm and desirelessness.
Look at this, what a perfect opportunity.
He looked at his hand, grasped tightly by hers.
She always liked to hold his hand, walking side by side with him.
Her fair hand, gripping his so firmly.
As if no matter what, she would never let go.
Until, when she worried about the falling rock aiming for him and reached out to block it, she missed the Double-headed Snake’s tail crashing towards her from a distance.
He instinctively raised his hand to strike.
But the very next second, he froze.
Su Yan closed her eyes and embraced him in turn.
Right under his gaze, she endured that blow.
He could even hear the sound of her muffled groan.
Then she murmured begrudgingly,
"Had I known, I wouldn’t have brought you here, now all my weaknesses are exposed."
Feng Yu’s hand trembled slightly, he swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue. His eyes, deep and dark, looked at Su Yan.
