Chapter 117 Come here
The Hidden Serpent was stunned. It cried out in disbelief, "You! You weren't asleep!"
It clearly remembered that the mist in the valley was poisonous to these cultivators!
Logically speaking, these cultivators would all hide away to avoid the fog, but what's wrong with this brat?! He didn't hide away to sleep, but instead stood brazenly at the cave entrance, letting the fog envelop him!
Has he gone mad?!
Chu Wenqing was certainly not crazy, but he wouldn't reveal the reason why he wasn't afraid of the fog. In order to complete his mission, he spoke provocatively.
"What? You're surprised I wasn't asleep? I knew you'd come looking for revenge! You think you're so smart? You're just a sentient beast at best, and you really think you're incredibly clever! Heh, a pervert like you, seeing you can't outsmart me, will definitely try every dirty trick to scheme against me!"
Chu Wenqing, hands on her hips, continued nagging, "Since you're going to come after me anyway, how am I supposed to sleep? Besides, I can smell your stench from way back! How can I possibly sleep? Come on, let's fight! Who's afraid of who! You're just a defeated opponent!"
Actually, Song Qiao could smell the scent of the Hidden Yin Snake from a great distance, but that didn't stop Chu Wenqing from using it to stimulate the Hidden Yin Snake.
"Shut up, you idiot!!"
Enraged, the Hidden Serpent stood in the mist and let out a shrill scream, a sound that was both piercing and terrifying.
With its scream, a surge of powerful demonic energy poured out, instantly creating a storm that dispersed the nearby mist and even subdued the maddened demonic beasts dozens of miles away.
The fog has dissipated!
Chu Wenqing's pupils contracted upon seeing this. He glanced at the ground beneath his feet without making a sound, then straightened up, drew his sword, and faced the Hidden Yin Serpent.
After the Hidden Serpent finished its roar, it stared intently at Chu Wenqing with the eyes of someone looking at a dead object, its tone full of certainty, "So what if you're awake? You'll die soon! I was careless before and you ambushed me, but I won't give you another chance!"
"Then come over here! You old monster! What kind of skill is it to just yell and not move?!" After saying that, Chu Wenqing made a face at the Hidden Yin Snake, stretched out his right index finger, and continued to provoke it.
"Come here!"
"court death!!"
As expected, the provoked Hidden Yin Snake paid no attention to anything else. It screamed, pushed off with its four claws, and charged towards Chu Wenqing like a madman.
Chu Wenqing then showed a slightly panicked expression and made a move to back away.
Even though the Hidden Yin Serpent hadn't fully recovered from its injuries, it still possessed the cultivation level of the mid-stage Golden Core realm and exuded a powerful aura.
Seeing that Chu Wenqing was preparing to retreat, the Hidden Yin Serpent thought that Chu Wenqing was afraid. So it raised the corners of its mouth in a sinister manner, flicked its tail, and instantly stirred up a cloud of dust. The surrounding trees were affected by the demonic power and crashed to the ground.
"Cough cough cough..."
Caught off guard, Chu Wenqing was blinded by dust and retreated into the cave while frantically waving his hands and coughing.
Chu Wenqing rubbed his eyes, unaware that the Hidden Yin Serpent was now flicking its tongue and stealthily approaching him.
At this moment, the Hidden Yin Serpent stared at the boy who was so close to it, its vertical pupils had turned into thin needles with excitement, and its mouth was grinning wider and wider.
They changed their plans!
It will take this brat back to its cave, hang him up, and slowly chop off his limbs to feed to other monsters, torturing him and making him cry every day until he has only one breath left, then eating his heart and liver! It will then grind him to dust!
Thinking of this, the Hidden Yin Serpent silently landed in front of Chu Wenqing, then raised its thick tail to attack him.
Almost at the same time, Chu Wenqing suddenly raised his head, raised his hand and slashed at the tail of the Hidden Yin Serpent with his sword. Where was the panicked look from just now?
The longsword struck the scales, which were as hard as iron, and sparks flew. Then a talisman fell off the sword and landed on the tail of the Hidden Yin Serpent, instantly igniting the entire tail.
"Ahhhh!"
Everything happened too fast; the Hidden Serpent had no time to react. It screamed in agony, slamming its tail against the ground in an attempt to extinguish the fire on its tail.
Chu Wenqing took the opportunity to retreat quickly, retreating directly to the depths of the cave, revealing a smug smile.
"Hehe... You little punk! You wanted to sneak up on me by blinding me with dust? I've been waiting for you! How about it? The Flame Talisman's effects aren't too bad, are they?"
The Hidden Serpent quickly swatted away the fire on its tail, and when it heard Chu Wenqing's words, it flew into a rage.
"Aaaaaah! You brat! I'm going to tear you to pieces!!"
The next moment, the Hidden Yin Snake screamed and pounced on Chu Wenqing.
However, before the Hidden Serpent could get close, a dazzling white light emanated from all around, and then it felt as if it had bumped into something invisible, and was bounced back by that thing, falling to the ground.
The Hidden Yin Serpent stared intently at Chu Wenqing, and tried to pounce several more times, but was blocked every time. It could only look at Chu Wenqing not far away, its eyes bloodshot with rage.
"Aaaaaah! What is this?!"
The Hidden Serpent rushed out in another direction, only to find that no matter how it turned, it couldn't get out!
There was clearly nothing around it, yet it was trapped!
Only then did the Hidden Serpent belatedly realize what was happening.
"It's a barrier!!"
As soon as it finished speaking, a crisp snap of fingers rang out, followed by a soft, girlish voice.
"Bingo! You guessed right!"
Immediately afterwards, two women and a man emerged from the distant forest. They slowly approached the Hidden Serpent trapped within the barrier, their eyes filled with the excitement of a hunt.
The girl in blue who had just spoken was staring intently at the Hidden Yin Serpent, her eyes revealing an astonishing coldness.
"Unfortunately, there was no reward..."
At this moment, the Hidden Serpent finally realized that it had fallen into a trap!
That brat was just bait to lure it into the barrier! These despicable cultivators had been hiding in the shadows, waiting for it to enter the barrier!
Although Feng Xiyue had just seen the Hidden Yin Serpent from the shadows, she still couldn't help but gasp when she saw it up close now.
"This Hidden Shadow Serpent really does have a human head and a snake's body! It certainly looks different from others, and it's quite eerie!"
Song Qiao gripped the strings of the zither tightly, his gaze unconsciously falling on the Hidden Yin Serpent, momentarily lost in thought.
This is a snake demon... Do all snake demons look this disgusting?
Chu Wenqing secretly wiped away his sweat while standing in the cave, then raised his head and puffed out his chest, saying to Su Luo, "Su Luo, did you see that? I haven't failed you!"
"Mmm! Chu Wenqing, you're amazing! It all comes down to you! I was worried that the Hidden Yin Serpent would sense the existence of the barrier, but it went so smoothly!"
Su Luo praised Chu Wenqing generously, and after praising him, she quickly went to check the array she had drawn to see if any places had been destroyed by the Hidden Yin Serpent.
Su Luo drew a trapping formation for beasts.
This type of formation is generally used to trap monsters. The formation master will draw the formation on the ground and then cover the formation diagram with dust or fallen leaves. When the prey unknowingly steps into the formation, the formation will take effect and trap the prey.
Just now, when the Hidden Yin Serpent blew away the mist, Su Luo was worried that the dust spread on the formation would also be blown away. Fortunately, Chu Wenqing was quick-witted and angered the Hidden Yin Serpent, causing it to ignore the ground and dive in.
Seeing that the formation was working properly, Su Luo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
After all, it was a demon beast at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm. She was initially worried about whether the formation she had taught herself would work, but fortunately, the formation was very useful.
Still feeling uneasy, Su Luo added a few more amplification talismans to the barrier to enhance its functionality.
Seeing the Hidden Yin Serpent thrashing about and unable to escape, Feng Xiyue nodded in praise, "Yes, Junior Brother, you are truly amazing! The success of this plan is largely due to your efforts! Senior Sister is very impressed with you!"
Hearing Su Luo and her senior sister praising Chu Wenqing, Song Qiao blinked and came back to his senses, also praising him, "Hmm, senior brother, you're really amazing..."
Chu Wenqing was overjoyed by the three people's compliments, and his spirits soared; he was practically ready to take off on the spot.
"That's right! Don't you know who I am? As long as I, Chu Wenqing, take charge, there's nothing I can't handle!"
The Hidden Serpent was trapped in the formation and couldn't get out. Hearing several people praising that brat, it became so angry that its face twisted in anger.
"Aaaaaah! When I get out, I'm going to tear you apart!! I'm going to rip your faces off and shred you to pieces!!"
"It's a pity you can't get out..."
Su Luo gave a sarcastic smile, then took out the Crimson Flame Spear and fired wildly at the Hidden Yin Serpent.
Villains die from talking too much; if you can take action, talk less!
The flames pierced through the array barrier and transformed into a giant fireball that attacked the Hidden Yin Serpent. The Hidden Yin Serpent had nowhere to hide and was hit by fireball after fireball. Even though its scales were very tough, they were torn apart by the countless fireball attacks, leaving it only able to roll and howl in agony!
Gradually, a rich aroma of meat filled the air.
