"The Lion King is unwilling to tell you how he found out the Devouring Python's weakness. Could it be that the method he used was not honorable?"
After returning to her room, Zhao Yuwei saw that Xiao Feng had set up a soundproof array before she asked him a question.
“I’m not entirely sure either, but since he said he’s willing to help me deal with the Devouring Python, there’s no need for me to ask any further questions.”
Xiao Feng could tell that the Nine-Headed Lion was still hiding something from him about the Devouring Python.
But now he knows enough to deal with the Devouring Python.
"Get some rest first. Even if you want to deal with the Devouring Python, you should wait until you're well-rested before going after it. Also, what are your plans for dealing with the Taotie?"
Xiao Feng has already dealt with the bird demon, so there's no reason why he shouldn't deal with the Taotie.
Zhao Yuwei was very curious: Did Xiao Feng intend to continue letting Taotie live?
“I don’t want to sign a contract with him. After all, he is an ancient ferocious beast with a very tainted aura. I don’t know if he has any other good things on him. It’s really a bit difficult to deal with.”
Xiao Feng had a headache.
"Why don't you give him another chance? He's quite strong. If he's really willing to submit to you, you won't have to be on guard against him anymore. Keeping him in your space all the time isn't a good idea."
Zhao Yuwei said softly.
Xiao Feng felt that Zhao Yuwei's words made some sense, so he simply released Taotie.
Perhaps because it had been frightened by Xiao Feng earlier, Taotie appeared exceptionally obedient and docile.
Xiao Feng waved his hand, letting Taotie roam freely. As long as it didn't cause trouble for itself, it could move around freely in the demon territory.
"Are you trying to test him with the matter of the Devouring Python?" Zhao Yuwei transmitted her voice to Xiao Feng.
"If he knew I was going to take action against the Devouring Python, do you think he would go and inform him? Actually, if I had a choice, I wouldn't want to kill him," Xiao Feng transmitted back.
The two watched quietly as Taotie cautiously left the room, and then began to discuss how to deal with the Devouring Python.
The Taotie, who was eavesdropping outside, remembered all the plans that Xiao Feng and Zhao Yuwei discussed. Then, in a desperate move, it found the Devouring Python by following the scent left behind by the python.
The Devouring Python was still on its own territory.
However, he was in a very secluded underwater cave.
The Devouring Python's wounds have not yet healed.
He was severely injured a second time because of his sneak attack on the nine-headed lion.
He didn't dare to go to the banquet that the Nine-Headed Lion had previously hosted, for fear that Xiao Feng would cause trouble for him.
The Devouring Python thought smugly that Xiao Feng and the others would never be able to find it by hiding in this place.
I'll wait until my injuries have healed before I secretly go out again.
Then we'll go to a place far away from the Nine-Headed Lion and reclaim our territory.
The Devouring Python knew that the grudge between him and the Nine-Headed Lion was far more serious than the grudges between other great demons and the Nine-Headed Lion.
Because the territories of the two great demons were adjacent, the Devouring Python would often go to the territory of the Nine-Headed Lion to steal and eat the members of their lion demon clan.
Later, they were discovered by the nine-headed lion, and the two great demons engaged in an earth-shattering battle.
In the end, no one won, but from that time on, the Devouring Python deliberately avoided the Nine-Headed Lion, not wanting to fight a madman like the Nine-Headed Lion.
The Devouring Python thought it had hidden itself well, but it never expected that a demon beast would still find its location.
The Devouring Python stared at the Taotie that appeared before it, its small eyes filled with immense confusion and terror.
"You are... Lord Taotie?"
Because Xiao Feng did not release Taotie when he fought the Devouring Python.
Therefore, the Devouring Python did not know that Taotie was Xiao Feng's contracted beast.
The Devouring Python was extremely shocked that one day, one of the four ancient ferocious beasts, the Taotie, would appear in its territory.
The Devouring Python was terrified and wanted to escape from the underwater cave as quickly as possible, but it was blocked by the Taotie.
"Lord Taotie, I was blind and didn't recognize your greatness. I don't know where I offended you. Please forgive me!" Taotie was speechless as he looked at the Devouring Python's trembling appearance before him.
"Get up first. I came to you this time because I have something to tell you. If you can do it, not only will you be spared from death, but you might also be able to kill that human who has a grudge against you, as well as the nine-headed lion."
After hearing Taotie's words, the Devouring Python cautiously glanced at Taotie, wondering if Taotie was deliberately digging a pit for itself.
Let him deal with that human, and also with the nine-headed lion?
Isn't this just sending him to his death?
The Devouring Python shook its head frantically, clearly unwilling to cooperate with the Taotie, which infuriated the Taotie.
Taotie quickly released the aura of a ferocious beast emanating from its body, and the Devouring Python in front of it was directly pressed to the ground by the pressure, and could only obediently ask Taotie what it wanted it to do.
"Do you know that the human man you offended before wants to kill you?"
Taotie first told the Devouring Python about this.
The Devouring Python nodded.
But the Devouring Python believed that since he was hiding in this place, the human man would definitely not be able to find him.
"Take this out when you deal with that human man, and you can take the opportunity to kill him."
Taotie tossed a box directly to the Devouring Python in front of it.
The Devouring Python stared at Taotie in shock. Seeing the undeniable threat in Taotie's eyes, the Devouring Python could only obediently nod and put away the box that Taotie handed it to it.
Seeing that the Devouring Python was relatively obedient, Taotie didn't say anything more and quickly left the Devouring Python, secretly returning to Xiao Feng's residence.
When Taotie sneaked out, he thought Xiao Feng and Zhao Yuwei must have already rested.
So when he returned and saw Xiao Feng and Zhao Yuwei waiting for him with the lights on, Taotie suddenly felt a sense of unease.
Just as Taotie was about to sneak away again, it heard Xiao Feng's voice coming from inside the house: "Now that you're back, why are you hiding?"
Taotie swallowed hard, silently encouraging himself, and finally entered Xiao Feng and Zhao Yuwei's room.
"You guys are still awake? I thought you'd all be resting by now, it's so late." Taotie tried to sound calm and said nonchalantly.
"Isn't this what we've been waiting for? Where did you go?"
Taotie ultimately disappointed Xiao Feng, who originally did not intend to kill it.
But unfortunately, this guy is a traitor who doesn't know his own limitations.
Perhaps following Zhao Yuwei's advice and eliminating the Taotie directly would be the only way to truly end the problem.
Anyway, the Taotie wasn't of much use to Xiao Feng.
"I just... went out for a stroll. You know, you've been keeping me locked up in this space, and I usually find it quite boring."
Taotie continued to argue illogically, trying to convince Xiao Feng of his endless lies.
"But why do I smell that stinky snake on you?" Xiao Feng sneered.
