The carp trembled.
Are you sure it didn't split the mountain when it fell, sealing the Taoist temple that had stood there for who knows how many years inside?
But she didn't dare to say it.
"I see, no wonder it's so powerful."
Jiang Shumiao replied proudly, "Of course."
Her natal sword was bound to its master, so it appeared automatically after she broke through the formation and even attracted heavenly lightning to temper her body.
"Let's go back. My sister and brother-in-law must be worried."
Qianli quickly picked up the half-dead snake demon and slipped it back into her Qiankun sleeve.
When Jiang Shumiao entered the city, she released the python demon and brazenly dragged it through the streets by its tail.
After the thunder, the dark clouds dispersed, and the sky cleared up instantly.
The streets gradually became more crowded.
"A snake, it's a python!"
Some people cried out and retreated, while others instinctively reached for their weapons.
Jiang Shumiao said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, everyone. I have already subdued the snake demon, and it can no longer harm people."
"A snake demon?"
Only a few people have seen the snake demon, and everyone is filled with doubt and uncertainty.
"yes."
Fearing they wouldn't believe her, Jiang Shumiao made another hand seal, and the python demon instantly transformed into a young man, lying on the ground in a sorry state, his face deathly pale and his eyes dark and swollen.
"Ah, it really is a demon!"
Screams erupted.
Some of the timid ones immediately ran home, but couldn't resist hiding and peeking.
Jiang Shumiao's intention was to tell everyone that the snake demon had been captured and that they no longer needed to be afraid. But judging from their reactions, they seemed quite frightened.
So she made the snake demon reveal its true form, starting from its tail and curling it little by little until it was rolled into a ball the size of a football.
"Don't be afraid, it'll die soon."
The surrounding people were all dumbfounded.
So, a huge snake was just coiled up into a ball like that?
At this moment, someone realized, "The princess said that the goddess has come to help us exorcise the demon! The goddess, she is the goddess!"
After that shout, everyone immediately knelt down.
They were all moved to tears, deeply grateful.
Streams of faith flowed into Jiang Shumiao's body.
She cast a spell, and everyone was pulled to their feet by an invisible force.
"Everyone, stop kneeling and go back. After I've cleaned all the venom off this snake, I'll make snake soup for you all."
Snake meat is said to nourish the skin, beautify the complexion, strengthen the nerves, and prolong life.
Jiang Shuman had already received the news and hurriedly came with Gu Jinchuan to pick her up and take her home.
The rumors of the goddess's reincarnation had long since spread beyond the capital, reaching every corner of the Great Yan. But the common people had never seen the goddess, so who could have imagined that she was just a three-and-a-half-year-old baby? However, after witnessing firsthand how she rolled such a large python into a ball, they no longer had any doubts.
The goddess subdued the snake demon and even invited everyone to drink snake soup.
The children ran around in the streets, spreading the word.
Jiang Shuman saw her younger sister walking back leisurely on the way, juggling a ball back and forth with both hands... Wait, where did the ball come from?
“Vast and insignificant”.
Jiang Shumiao's eyes sparkled, and she happily waved the ball in her hand, "I caught the snake demon!"
Jiang Shuman stared wide-eyed.
That's it?
"Yes."
As Jiang Shumiao spoke, she stepped on the ground and gently kicked the python ball with her toes, sending it flying into Jiang Shuman's arms.
Jiang Shuman caught it subconsciously, turned around, and met a pair of eyes that seemed lifeless.
Jiang Shuman: "..."
Gu Jinchuan saw it too, and his eyelids twitched.
He coughed lightly and chuckled, "Miaomiao likes Cuju (ancient Chinese football), so this would be a good toy for her."
Jiang Shumiao was stunned for a moment, then waved her hand.
"No, no, no, the snake demon smells bad. I want to wash it clean and eat it."
Gu Jinchuan: "..."
Can you eat pythons?
Alright, the goddess must have a way.
Jiang Shuman dismounted, picked her up, and said, "Let's go home."
The snake demon, who had been turned into a ball, was speechless.
The demon that harmed people had no voice, and Jiang Shumiao didn't even want to know its name. After returning, she washed it clean from the inside out.
They peeled off the skin and removed the tendons to extract the inner core.
Like the previous Azure Sea Immortal, his inner core was impure and stained with a lot of blood.
Jiang Shumiao saw many wronged spirits.
Besides demons, there are also humans!
The stinky snake demon did indeed absorb human souls to cultivate.
Jiang Shumiao used her inner core to repair their souls, and then summoned Fengdu.
“These people have all been devoured and are somewhat weak. You need to personally escort them to the underworld.”
Fengdu took it and held it in his palm. "You've tempered your body?"
Jiang Shumiao grinned from ear to ear, "Yes, I found Cang Yuan."
Feng knew that it was her natal sword; she used Cangyuan to kill the Demon Lord back then.
"That race of gods..."
"It's alright, it's alright."
Jiang Shumiao waved her hand, "The Heavenly Dao still has a conscience, it helped me conceal my aura, and the gods didn't notice."
Fengdu was relieved.
"The gods have been searching for the whereabouts of the Hidden Abyss for years, wanting to possess it. Now that it has been unearthed, the gods will find out sooner or later. Be careful."
Jiang Shumiao snorted.
"This is my natal sword. It's useless for others to find it; they'll only suffer a backlash."
Fengdu smiled and said, "The gods have been arrogant and conceited for a long time. They think that just because you're gone, they can take over your things. What wishful thinking!"
Jiang Shumiao glanced at him and said, "You have a lot of opinions about the gods."
Fengdu coldly replied, "The gods specialize in doing immoral things, and I'm not the only one who has a problem with them."
