Chapter 326: Snake Eggs Hatch (Rewards and Extra Updates)
…
After the Chinese New Year, a full-moon banquet was held for the two little angels. A few months later, it was the turn to hold a birthday banquet for the two phoenix cubs.
With so many children, it’s almost impossible to have a birthday every month.
The two phoenix cubs celebrated their birthdays a few times before, but Sang Luo was in the Holy Palace and had no time to come. This year, she specially made two small gold and jade collars and gave them to the phoenix cubs as birthday gifts.
Fei Yuan holds a grand and lively birthday party for his children every year.
The major beast emperors and beast kings of the East Continent also came to visit and give gifts.
Sang Luo helps register people who send gifts.
A thin young man in red clothes and green hair was followed by a black-clothed secret guard. He brought many valuable gifts, several boxes, and was quite generous.
Sang Luo was still wondering which beast king was so generous when Fei Yuan came over and called out with a smile, "Lou Tian, long time no see."
"Brother Fei Yuan, hello."
Sang Luo looked at the green-haired boy and felt that his face looked familiar. Then he remembered that it was the Eastern Beast King Lou Tian.
She had met Quan Jin once at the banquet when he was crowned the Beast King of the South. As for the current situation in the south, she was not too sure. Quan Jin certainly had not been back in all these years and had not taken much care of it. She guessed that he had been replaced a long time ago.
Fei Yuan took the roster from Sang Luo's hand and glanced at it. It was filled with dozens of pages, and there were hundreds, even thousands, of gifts. He rubbed her sore wrist and said with a smile, "Everyone is almost here, and the party is about to start. Let's go."
Sang Luohui shook his hand and chatted all the way, "After so many years, the Eastern Beast King is still so young. He doesn't look like a Beast King, but more like a teenager who hasn't even reached adulthood."
Fei Yuan smiled and said, "His true appearance is not like this. He deliberately maintained a youthful appearance."
"Oh? Why?"
"As an outsider, I don't know much about what's going on in the East. Perhaps there was a coup d'état within the Bifang tribe, and his parents died in that coup, so he was temporarily pushed into this position. Later, he got used to meeting outsiders with this attitude."
"The Eastern Beast King seems to value that guard very much and often keeps him by his side. He also accompanied the Beast King when he attended the Southern Banquet. Each Beast King present can only bring one family member, but the Eastern Beast King only brought one guard."
"How do you know the guards aren't family members?"
"Ah, could it be the two of them?" Sang Luo's gossip soul was burning.
Fei Yuan smiled ambiguously, "I'll tell you a secret. The Eastern Beast King is a female. He disguised his appearance and identity, using the identity of his deceased brother. There was a coup in the palace that year, and his parents and brother died in the coup. His current appearance is based on his brother's appearance back then. He didn't know what his brother would look like when he grew up, so he kept his appearance as a teenager."
Sang Luo was surprised, what a big reversal!
Fei Yuan is a civet in the melon field. He may not be able to explain clearly, but he knows all the secrets behind the scenes!
Sang Luo came back to his senses. "It's been so long, hasn't anyone else discovered it... Wait, how did you know? I remember you two seemed to have a good relationship, and 'he' even helped you back then! Could it be that you two, in the early years—"
Fei Yuan hurriedly stuffed a sweet cake into her mouth and said, "Eat."
Sang Luo swallowed the sweet cake whole and whimpered, "You better confess the truth today!"
That’s it, he shouldn’t have said so much!
Fei Yuan confessed later. He had saved Lou Tian once and got to know his true identity by accident. However, nothing happened between the two of them and they just got along as friends.
Sang Luo asked about the current situation in the south.
"A new Beast King hasn't appeared in the South yet. Quan Jin is still nominally the Beast King, but he hasn't handled southern government affairs in years. He's barely even appeared in person. Those under him think he's dead, a mere figurehead... Many Beast Kings in the South are vying for power, and the situation is chaotic. If he could come back and take charge, things would probably be much better."
"Hey, every time he leaves, there's no news. I don't know when he'll be back this time."
Sang Luo returned to the banquet, but the children were not there.
"Where have these kids gone to have fun again?"
"In the back garden. It's a nice day today. The children are all here, having so much fun they've forgotten the time. I'll go call them over."
"I'll go with you."
Suddenly, little Zhenzhen came running from a distance, shouting for help, "Mommy, mommy, no, Sister Snake's egg is broken!"
"What?!"
Sang Luo and Fei Yuan's faces changed and they rushed over immediately.
The snake eggs had been kept in Sang Luo's space. Today the weather was good and the children were playing together. Xiao Qi said she wanted to take her sister out to bask in the sun, so she took out the snake eggs and gave them to the children. She didn't expect this to happen.
Little Zhenzhen said, "When we were playing, we put the snake egg on a stool and no one touched it, but for some reason the egg suddenly fell off!"
When Sang Luo rushed to the back garden, he really saw an egg broken into several pieces on the ground.
The kids didn't know what to do. When they saw Sang Luo coming, they were a little scared.
Little Stone whispered, "Mom, I'm sorry, we didn't mean to..."
"I heard it from Xiao Zhenzhen on the way. I don't blame you." Sang Luo looked calm but anxious in his heart. He went over and found that there was only the eggshell, and the little snake inside was gone.
Xiao Qi crawled out of the bushes, shaking off the dirt and dead leaves on her body, and said, "Mother, I looked around but couldn't find my sister."
"My sister ran away?"
"Well, it ran away the moment it broke out of its shell, and I lost it."
"It seems it wasn't an accident. It was time for it to break out of its shell and run away on its own."
Sang Luo sighed, and then she moved her mind and used the mother beast's ability to summon her offspring.
The next moment.
A small silver-purple snake landed in her palm.
Sang Luoxi said, "My daughter, I am your mother——"
"Hiss~" The little snake tensed up its body, raised its head and stared at her, its purple eyes flashing with ferocity, its whole body inflated, and its tongue spitting out crazily made a violent hissing sound, a full offensive and intimidating posture!
Sang Luo's face changed slightly, and before she could let go, the little snake jumped out and opened its mouth to bite her hand hard!
It was so fast that Fei Yuan on the side didn't have time to stop it, "Luo'er!"
The moment Sang Luo let go of his hand in pain, the little snake took advantage of the chaos and quickly escaped, disappearing into the hidden grass.
"It's okay." Sang Luo purified the snake venom and tried to summon it again, but failed.
In less than half an hour, many guards and servants in the palace were bitten and poisoned by snakes, and their bodies turned blue. Sang Luo had no choice but to go to the witch hospital to help treat these bitten orcs.
Fei Yuan whispered, "Don't worry, Luo'er. I'll bring people to look for him."
"Hurry and bring it back! Once it escapes from the palace, it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack. More people will suffer!"
"good."
Based on the route map of the bitten servants, Fei Yuan quickly drew up several routes. An hour later, he captured the little snake at the palace gate.
