Luo Dangdang stiffened his neck and quickly looked down. His face froze, and his body trembled even more violently. He quickly flipped the whisk over, as if nothing had happened, and pointed it at the giant python again.
He glanced at the two boys on his left and right, and said in a trembling voice that he could barely speak, "Kids, don't worry, I have the power to attain enlightenment. What is a mere little snake?"
Huo Chengche raised his hand and pressed his temple. He felt that he must be out of his mind to watch Xuan Di laughing and fooling around here, wasting time!
"Why don't you straighten out your tongue, Taoist priest?" Huo Chengche said coolly, then raised his hand and impatiently tossed the sieve that was trying to block him aside.
"Hey, you little brat, how can you be so arrogant!" Although Luo Dangdang was scared, she was so angry that she jumped up and down when a mere child looked down on her.
But just as he was about to squeeze back, he heard a piercing, loud sound of jade shattering on the ground.
"Splash—"
As everyone looked over, they saw that in Hua Xiao's struggle, the black stone she had been clutching was thrown away, and it shattered upon hitting the ground.
Suddenly, something seemed to disperse, and the giant python, which had somehow shrunk to a distance, suddenly became excited. Its sinister eyes flashed with an eerie light, and it hissed and flicked its tongue, becoming visibly ferocious.
"Oh no! Oh no!" Luo Dangdang exclaimed in horror, pounding her chest and stamping her feet. "We're doomed! How could this little girl have such a vicious thing in her hands! Once the black stone shatters, the venomous snake will go berserk, and a bloody disaster is sure to follow!"
Luo Dangdang's pupils shrank sharply, and she was so frightened that her legs went weak and she collapsed to the ground, muttering to herself, "The black stone is a token to suppress the venom of the pythons. Once this black stone is broken, the snakes will be without a master and will not recognize their own family. It is unlikely that anyone will survive within a hundred miles!"
The black stone shattered, drawing everyone's attention. Even Hua Xiao suddenly fell silent for a moment. What Luo Dangdang said at that moment was heard not only by Huo Chengche but also by Hua Xiao.
"Hahaha...Fine! You'll all be buried with me!" Hua Xiao laughed maniacally. "What princes and princesses? They're all going to be buried with me! Kill them all! Tear them to shreds! To these pythons and venomous creatures, you people are all the same as me! There's no distinction of high or low status!"
Hua Xiao laughed loudly and shouted, because before the black stone shattered, Hua Xiao, who was holding the black stone, ordered all the snakes to gather over.
Now that the black stone has shattered, Hua Xiao's shouts immediately attracted the surrounding pythons.
Just as Luo Dangdang had said, once the black stone shattered, the snakes, now without a master and unrestrained, became exceptionally ferocious. Upon seeing people in this direction, they immediately opened their blood-red mouths and charged over.
"Ah! God, come quickly and save your disciple—!!"
When Luo Dangdang saw pythons flying in from all directions, he was so frightened that he covered his head and screamed wildly. He scrambled to his knees and crawled on the ground, his buttocks sticking up and his head buried in the crack of the rocks.
Upon seeing this scene, Huo Chengche narrowed his eyes, one hand protecting the little baby in his arms, the other already resting on the sword at his waist, his aura sharp and murderous.
Amidst the horrified gazes of the crowd and the triumphant anticipation in Hua Xiao's eyes, just as the python lunged forward—
"Let me see which bad snake wants to be made into snake soup! All of you, stand still! Tail down! Tuck your teeth back, don't scare anyone! Otherwise, I'll rip you out and crush you to use as the base for the snake soup!"
