Chapter 403 “Snake Clan’s Ancestor (4)”
For such an amazing spell to work, the price would be the caster’s very own soul!
And……
Once called upon, the incantation cannot be interrupted from the outside.
“Snake ancestor?” Bai Yan’s expression grew dark, “Little Rice, leave now with my son and his friend.”
“Mother,” crying out in protest, Bai Xiachen tugs at his mother’s sleeve using his usual pitiful face, “I don’t want to leave.”
“Go!” Her voice getting stern and fierce, proof of how urgent the situation was becoming.
Likely falling into the same camp as the baby boy, Little Rice also chimes in to protest: “Mistress, I want to stay too. In this world there are no other who is more prestigious than the little master’s bloodline. We can help!”
“No,” it was Di Xiao Wan who was oddly the most level-headed here, “Xiachen’s bloodline is indeed the most prestigious, but that’s only under the premise that the one coming is the person’s own flesh and blood. Qing Luan called upon the snake’s ancestor using the secret craft of us Demons, meaning the one to arrive will only be a part of the one’s soul, it won’t have any effect.”
Since it’s called the power of the bloodline, it’s only natural that the one being suppressed must have a physical body. Otherwise, what’s there to suppress?
“But,” raising her dainty face, Di Xiao Wan doesn’t seem afraid, “I am the princess of the Demon Realm, that snake ancestor wouldn’t dare do anything to us.”
Just as soon as her words came to an end, an ethereal figure visually reveals itself from the void.
“Who is the one daring enough to harm a member of my Snake Clan?” His voice was old and majestic. Suddenly, the old man that appeared finally caught sight of the young girl, causing him to stammer in his following words, “Pr-Princess?”
“Ancestor!” Qing Luan breaks out her faint voice, “Kill them. If you don’t then the entire clan will be annihilated.”
The serpenty old man was obviously startled based on the expression he made following that remark, Can it be the one who harmed Qing Luan is Her Highness? But, me killing the princess is…..
“Ancestor!” Using her last dying breath, Qing Luan apparently wouldn’t go down unless she achieves her final goal, “Just now the princess said she will destroy our entire clan. If you don’t kill them now then it will be the doom of everyone in our family. His Majesty wouldn’t learn of this so long as none of them lives, HURRY!”
Shooting a cold hard glare at the dying snake, Di Xiao Wan then shifts her gaze over to the ethereal old man, “I am the princess, and these two are my nephew and sister-in-law. You really think my brother the king wouldn’t be alarmed if anything happens to them?”
The snake ancestor didn’t reply right away, only eyeing the group with his slithering eyes. As result of this, Wang Xiaopeng was exceptionally frightened due to that pressuring gaze, evident by how hard he was trying to hide behind the white tiger for safety.
“No Ancestor, no one will know if you kill them. So long as there’s no evidence or witness then His Majesty can’t do anything to our clan. On the contrary, if words leak then nothing can save our family! Look at me, that human woman ruthlessly peeled off my scales and torn my skin as a result. If such a cruel hearted person becomes the queen then it will be the doom of us all!” Anxiousness was quickly filling Qing Luan’s eye because she knew time wasn’t on her side.
“Princess, is what Qing Luan said true?” Raising his head from contemplation, the snake ancestor became insidious in his eyes while speaking, “Princess, are you really intent on destroying the entire Snake Clan?”
Turning sharp in her eyes as well, “Qing Luan kidnapped my nephew and bullied my sister-in-law. By law she should be punished. Since that has been done I can forgive the past and allow your clan off the hook. You can leave first.”
Forgive the entire snake clan? Of course not! If it weren’t for the help of these snakes then there’s no way such a puny green snake like Qing Luan would be able to break out of the seal and leave the Demon Realm.
“Princess, I can’t move against you. However, that human woman must die for harming Qing Luan!” Shifting his attention over to Bai Yan, an obvious intent to kill was radiating out of that ethereal body.
“She is my sister-in-law, are you trying to commit treason?” Enraged by the disobedience, the girl roars out.
