Chapter 252: Chapter 252: Killing Two Birds with One Arrow_1
All the Spiritual Energy of Qiuniu Mountain would converge in Suolong Cave.
Because, inside Suolong Cave were many smaller caves leading to any location within Qiuniu Mountain.
Therefore, all the snakes on Qiuniu Mountain could assemble inside Suolong Cave.
Zhen Haoren had already killed thousands of snakes, but there was still an unending stream of venomous snakes pouring in from above.
The corpses of those poisonous snakes had already submerged him up to his waist.
If Qin Feng didn’t come out soon, he wouldn’t just die from snake bites, he would die of sheer exhaustion.
Iron Fist collided with Golden Bell Shield, producing a deafening boom.
"Boom!"
The Golden Bell Shield stood unshaken, as stable as Mount Tai.
Although Zhen Haoren’s Iron Fist was not shattered, his hand swelled, becoming as thick as a pig’s trotter.
At the same time, due to the recoil, Zhen Haoren was sent flying backward and landed on his rear on the ground.
Because his energy was disrupted, Zhen Haoren’s esse was seriously damaged.
The venomous snakes, which previously could not approach him, suddenly swarmed over and entwined around his body.
Zhen Haoren rolled on the ground, struggling, but it was utterly useless.
Even a large black snake, thick as a wrist, slithered into his mouth.
Zhen Haoren quickly reached out to grab the large black snake, attempting to pull it out forcefully.
However, the more forcefully he pulled, the more vigorously the big black snake burrowed in.
Zhen Haoren’s Dantian contained True Qi, which was refined from Spiritual Energy, and any snake with the desire to pursue Cultivation would be interested in True Qi.
Thus, this large black snake was drilling into Zhen Haoren’s mouth, actually aiming for the True Qi in his Dantian.
It looked like Zhen Haoren couldn’t hold on for much longer.
Having associated in Anlong Town for sixty years, Zhen Haoren surely knew many secrets; if he were to be killed by these poisonous snakes directly, those secrets would be lost forever.
Qin Feng parted his lips and began murmuring a magic spell.
As the spell began, the venomous snakes that had been aggressively attacking Zhen Haoren slowly became immobilized, unable to move any longer.
Zhen Haoren quickly pulled out the large black snake that had entered his mouth.
Then he retched violently several times.
"How’s that for a taste of the ’Hundred Snakes Entwined’?"
"Taste my ass! Ah... Ptui!"
The disgusting taste of snake in his mouth made Zhen Haoren want to spit.
"Daring to curse me? Immortal Zhen, your mouth is truly unclean! It seems I need to let that big black snake give you another mouthwash."
Seeing Qin Feng about to start chanting a spell again, Zhen Haoren quickly interjected, "Stop, don’t mess around! Let’s talk this out, talk this out!"
"Talk this out?"
Qin Feng nodded and said, "Well then, Immortal Zhen, you might as well tell me! Tell me why you were following me into Suolong Cave, what was your purpose?"
"It wasn’t my fault, it was Pei Yuanbing’s idea. He told me your abilities are great, that neither their Pei Family nor I, an old man, could compete against you.
If we don’t get rid of you, Anlong Town will transition from being split between two to a tripartite power struggle. Even worse, you could directly destroy both the Pei Family and my Medicine Saint Hall.
So, Pei Yuanbing suggested I strike first. He gave me that map and had me lure you into Suolong Cave.
Who would have guessed that bastard would trap me too. So now, I’ve decided to form an alliance with you, and together we can go after Pei Yuanbing and overturn the Pei Family."
Just then, Pei Yuanbing arrived, holding his gourd flute, and looked down from on high at the three people trapped in the great pit.
Every single word spoken by Zhen Haoren was heard clearly by Pei Yuanbing.
"Hehe!"
He sneered, glaring at Zhen Haoren, "Not a single word coming out of your lying dog’s mouth is reliable!
It was clearly you who came to my door, begging to form an alliance with my Pei Family, trying to kill Qin Feng and share his beautiful wife with me.
Now, you have the nerve to turn things around and claim it was my idea?
The idea I had was not to join forces with you against Qin Feng, but to wipe out both of you together.
As for his beautiful wife, of course, she will be mine alone."
As he spoke, Pei Yuanbing’s eyes involuntarily turned towards Xue Xiaochan.
Tonight, as she entered Suolong Cave, Xue Xiaochan was wearing sportswear, which, although somewhat loose, still could not conceal her impressive figure.
Every time Pei Yuanbing saw Xue Xiaochan, he remembered how she looked in her tight dress and couldn’t help swallowing his saliva.
This woman was breathtakingly beautiful, so much so that it took one’s breath away.
Pei Yuanbing no longer wasted words, put the calabash flute to his lips, and blew into it.
"Whoo... Whoo..."
The harsh and piercing sound came out, awakening all the poisonous snakes that Qin Feng had rendered motionless.
The snakes lifted their heads and flicked their tongues.
Zhen Haoren quickly picked up the Spirit Snake Blade and shouted at Qin Feng, "Cast your technique quickly! The snakes are going to bite me again."
"You wanted to share my wife with Pei Yuanbing; do you think I would save you?"
Qin Feng chuckled and said, "Since these poisonous snakes can’t reach me anyway, you and Pei Yuanbing can have fun slowly!"
After that, Qin Feng released a surge of Xuanhuang Qi, reinforcing his Golden Bell Shield.
Seeing Qin Feng trying to stay out of the fray, Zhen Haoren, while cutting off the heads of the snakes with the Spirit Snake Blade, yelled at Pei Yuanbing.
"Your poisonous snakes can’t even kill me, let alone harm this kid.
Don’t you see that your snakes can’t penetrate his Golden Bell Shield, that they can’t harm him in the slightest?
If you exhaust me to death here, you’ll definitely be killed by this kid.
If that happens, not only will my Medicine Saint Hall fall into this kid’s hands, but everything owned by your Pei Family will also end up in his hands."
Zhen Haoren’s words swayed Pei Yuanbing, who immediately changed the tune of his calabash flute, although it became even more unpleasant to listen to.
After the change of tone, the poisonous snakes stopped their furious attack on Zhen Haoren and immediately turned around, heading towards Qin Feng.
The snakes opened their jaws wide, using their sharp venomous fangs to bite at the Golden Bell Shield, one after another.
Unfortunately, the Golden Bell Shield was harder than steel. The fangs of the snakes got chipped off quite a bit, but the Golden Bell Shield was still unscathed.
Pei Yuanbing changed the tune of his calabash flute again, and those snakes that had lost their venomous fangs began to furiously thrash their tails against the Golden Bell Shield.
"Smack!"
"Smack! Smack!"
...
The tails of the poisonous snakes, like drumsticks, landed on the Golden Bell Shield like raindrops.
But their tails got deformed from the flailing, and the Golden Bell Shield remained as immovable as ever.
As for Qin Feng, he just stood with his hands in his pockets, quietly watching Pei Yuanbing’s performance.
Qin Feng’s disdain angered Pei Yuanbing.
Seeing that he had sacrificed so many of his poisonous snakes without being able to break through Qin Feng’s Golden Bell Shield,
Pei Yuanbing, unable to contain his rage, pointed at Qin Feng’s nose and cursed, "If you have any guts, get out of there. What kind of skill is it for a grown man to hide in a turtle shell?"
Qin Feng, hands still in his pockets, shamelessly replied, "I have no skill, I won’t come out. If you have the skill, come on in!"
