Li Changzhou flicked the Emerald Bee Sword, and the roasted meat skewered on the sword fell to the ground like abacus beads.
The blade, as thin as a cicada's wing, was smooth and bright, and indeed, not a drop of oil would stick to it.
The Nuwa clan stared at the buzzing Emerald Bee Sword, then looked up at Li Changzhou. In their eyes, which were filled with arrogance and murderous intent, a sliver of space was reserved for greed.
Wilderness lands are rich in resources, and communism can be achieved there, but good things are scarce everywhere, because the so-called 'good' is determined by comparison.
The sword before me is undoubtedly a fine piece.
The leader of the Nuwa clan was an old woman, leaning on a wooden cane, with silver hair and a withered face, except for her bright eyes, which shone like stars.
Be careful of her eyes and her cane.
Guanyin's reminder made Li Changzhou take a closer look. There was an aura on the wooden staff that he was very familiar with, like... a snake?
Upon closer inspection, I discovered that the two gems inlaid at the top of the wooden staff had a staring effect on me; they were snake eyes.
As for the old woman's eyes, one could not discern their true nature, but one could only sense that the old woman's entire life had been devoted to these eyes, which had drained all her energy and spirit.
Although Li Changzhou was strong, he didn't have any special methods at the moment, so he was secretly on guard. He even suspended the retraining of the three thousand great divine abilities that he had been practicing since leaving Zixu Mountain, as well as the refinement of his qi.
"Did you kill Tong Li?" The old woman's voice was calm yet powerful.
"Tong Li?" Li Changzhou asked in return.
"Still dare to argue!" The stubborn young man from the Three-Eyed Clan stepped forward. "Elder Snake, it was he who killed Elder Gravel. We can all testify to that!"
The three-eyed teenagers, who were being stared at by him, all spoke up and identified Li Changzhou as the murderer.
"Oh~" Li Changzhou suddenly realized, "You mean that old man in gray? I did kill him."
The three-eyed teenagers blushed, their hearts filled with humiliation and anger—the other party wasn't just making excuses, but simply didn't take them seriously at all!
The old woman's expression remained unchanged: "The Three-Eyed Clan is a subordinate tribe of Nuwa. It's one thing if you kill one or two normally, but they came to participate in the Heaven-Mending Conference, so they can barely be considered half guests. Nuwa's guests, how dare you provoke them?"
Before the old man in gray died, he said he was going to Nuwa's place to participate in something.
Li Changzhou secretly wondered if Yang Qinglan's mission might be related to this conference.
[Very likely!] Guanyin had the same thought.
The premise is that Yang Qinglan really was in Nuwa's world.
"Provoke?" With his mind preoccupied with other thoughts, Li Changzhou didn't hesitate at all. "They made the first move. If anyone provoked me, it was them."
The stubborn young man from the Three-Eyed Clan pointed at Li Changzhou, about to speak, when the Snake Elder said, "I already know the cause."
She continued slowly, "He only wanted to capture you as a slave, but you took a life... How could you be so cruel to a man who was over two hundred years old and about to die?"
"So, it's my fault that I don't want to be a slave?" Li Changzhou found it absurd and couldn't help but laugh.
"Ask them if it's your fault," Snake Elder said, glancing at Xiang and the others.
The way these people stared at Li Changzhou was as if to say, 'He's being tactless; he's in the wrong.'
Having established a legitimate reason for his attack, the old snake stopped wasting words and said, "Kill him."
The Nuwa warriors, with human bodies and snake tails, swam around, their hissing tongues rising and falling like waves.
Each person held a mirror made of snake scales.
Li Changzhou felt that Yang Qinglan was more likely to be a member of the Nuwa clan, since she possessed a mirror, the Xiaojing.
The mirror reflects the campfire's flames like golden stars. These stars merge together, transforming into a giant, transparent python with golden, fiery scales.
The moment the giant python took shape, Li Changzhou was immediately trapped inside its body!
The golden, fiery python turned its head, its flat, triangular head staring at Li Changzhou inside its belly. The python's mouth slowly opened, then it suddenly snapped down.
"hiss!
The golden, fiery python let out an extremely painful hiss, its body writhing wildly, while a black hand casually pressed down on its head.
The giant python slowly shrank, as if it were being absorbed by a dark force.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
All the mirrors shattered at the same time, like a rain shower. The fragments refracted light, and for a moment, the light was so bright that it was blinding.
"Bai!" the old snake shouted.
A slender man emerged from behind the snake, and with a sway, his legs transformed into a snake's tail.
The man raised his hand, and in the next moment, he had already placed a palm on Li Changzhou's head.
Li Changzhou remained unfazed and met the attack with his own palm.
Peng!
The air currents surged back and forth in the mountains, rustling the towering trees and wild grass. Li Changzhou took two steps back.
He was somewhat surprised. This Nuwa warrior's palm strike, which looked unremarkable on the surface, like a light drizzle, possessed the immense power to shake mountains, simply because all the power was compressed into a single palm.
In the heat of the moment, in a contest of strength, he, who was capable of destroying planets, was actually at a disadvantage.
"Beng! Beng! Beng!" the snake warriors roared.
Having gained the upper hand, the snake-man revealed a cold smile, flicked his snake tail, and brought down another palm strike with immense force.
"Wait a moment!" Li Changzhou dodged aside.
He wasn't motivated to fight; there was no need to fight, this person was no match for him.
The figure of the snake suddenly swelled up, transforming into a giant. With a flick of its tail, it encircled an area of ten miles within its tail. At the same time, it still slammed down with a simple and unadorned palm, as if the sky were collapsing.
"Stop!" the old snake shouted.
"Grandma?" Bian asked, puzzled.
"How about I marry into your family?" Li Changzhou sat cross-legged on Bian's head, the Emerald Bee Sword resting across his knees. "My bloodline is still quite strong."
