For many years, Hongyu had been sent by Mu Shuangshuang to the Tianyu Dynasty as an undercover agent. If it weren't for her gluttony that led to her being caught red-handed by Shen Yunhao's cousin, Shen Wenruo, she wouldn't have been transferred back to the Scorpion Palace.
Unexpectedly, this snake was still unruly after returning to the Scorpion Palace. It can only be said that snake demons are like this by nature, and even with the cultivation of the Soul Condensation Realm, it is difficult to suppress them.
"And what about that idiot?"
Mu Shuangshuang crossed her arms, her face cold and stern: "There are very few living creatures in the Dark Demon Realm. Did she go to the nearest Yue Dynasty?"
Ling lowered her head and dared not speak, which was tantamount to her acquiescence.
"He was personally trained by me, doesn't he know any manners at all?" Mu Shuangshuang said angrily. "The Yue Dynasty is always on my mother's side. If this idiot goes there and acts recklessly, wouldn't he be pushing the dynasty to the other side?"
"Miss, you can rest assured. Hongyu should know what's going on. She's not so simple as to not understand these basic principles!"
"Hmph! Take me to find her right now! Where is Youying? Where is Youying?"
"I don't know about that. That guy always keeps to himself and doesn't have much interaction with the two of us."
Mu Shuangshuang was silent for a moment, then asked, "What about Elder Poison Shadow? Has she returned?"
When she said this, Mu Shuangshuang's tone softened considerably, carrying a hint of trepidation and anticipation.
Lingmu shook her head. "No, Elder Poison Shadow went out and hasn't returned yet!"
Mu Shuangshuang's face lit up with joy. "Has there been any movement from Teng Kui's side?"
"We have not received any news yet."
"Alright, let's pack up, grab Hongye, and get ready to go to... Yunzhou!"
Before Lingmu could ask what mission she was going to Yunzhou, the girl in the black dress was already humming a little tune and running off happily.
A moment later, the two left the Scorpion Palace in a strangely shaped flying chariot.
The Ten Thousand Poisons Sect is located in Leizhou, on the western side of the continent, and its sphere of influence is extremely vast.
The Scorpion Palace and the Dark Demon Realm it is located in are both under the jurisdiction of Mu Shuangshuang's mother, the Poisonous Goddess.
As for the Yue Dynasty that Mu Shuangshuang mentioned, it was a large mortal dynasty within Leizhou.
The Demonic Sect is mainly composed of humans, and demons like Mu Shuangshuang are relatively rare.
Therefore, for a demonic sect to continue to develop, it must gain the support of a mortal dynasty.
The majority of the new disciples they recruit each year come from these mortal dynasties; those who have truly fallen from the righteous path to become disciples of the demonic sect are actually a minority.
The flying chariot flew through the air for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn before finally leaving that eerie plain shrouded in dark clouds.
"Where exactly is that stupid snake? Haven't we made contact with him yet?"
Seeing Mu Shuangshuang frowning as she asked, Lingmu was also a little anxious and shook her head, saying, "Hongyu hasn't replied to the message yet, I don't know if something happened!"
Something happened?
Mu Shuangshuang pondered for a while, then took out a fist-sized transparent crystal ball from her storage magic treasure. She pointed at it, and the crystal ball emitted a soft purple light. Suddenly, a picture resembling a map appeared inside the ball.
Having obtained the address information, Mu Shuangshuang steered her flying chariot forward at an accelerated pace.
However, a moment later, the flying chariot landed on a mountaintop.
The two of them stepped down and stared at the scene before them, speechless and incredulous.
At the foot of the mountain ahead, what was once clearly a village of ordinary people has now become a desolate ruin.
Most of the houses in the village have collapsed, with huge stones and broken tiles piled up haphazardly, and a large number of the surrounding trees have fallen down as if swept by a strong wind.
What's chilling is that the air still smells strongly of blood, yet there isn't a single corpse in the entire village, as if all life had vanished into thin air!
The village... was massacred!
As a member of the Demonic Sect, such a horrific massacre of a village was not particularly rare for Mu Shuangshuang.
What really bothered her was the absence of any smell of blood from the corpses!
It was as if some monster had crushed everything in its path, then captured or...ate all the ordinary people in the village!
"This...this is made of red jade? That can't be!"
Lingmu covered her lips. "Has she gone mad?"
By now, Mu Shuangshuang's face had become extremely gloomy.
"I finally managed to find some time to see that lecherous brat, and now he's caused this mess. I'm going to skin that stupid snake alive!"
The two searched the village and found that there was not a single survivor, not even a chicken, duck, cow, or sheep. All signs of life in the village had completely disappeared, and only the smell of blood in the air told the story of the tragedy that had occurred there.
Fortunately, there were clear traces of the monster walking through the woods at the end of the village.
Judging by its shape, it is clearly a giant python!
"It really is red jade!"
Faced with the facts, Lingmu had no choice but to believe them.
"Let's hurry and chase after him! If this guy gets into the city, my vacation will be over!"
However, just as Mu Shuangshuang took out the flying chariot and was about to step forward, the two of them changed their expressions at the same time and then retreated rapidly.
"boom!"
With a deafening roar, the ground suddenly split open, and a giant python covered in red scales burst forth from the earth, sending earth and rocks flying and dust billowing everywhere!
Mu Shuangshuang and Lingmu flew back, and after standing at a distance, they looked ahead and were slightly taken aback.
They were very familiar with that giant red python; it was naturally Hongyu's true form.
But at this moment, the giant python's eyes were completely bloodshot, showing no sign of its mind!
"Hongyu! What are you doing?"
Lingmu immediately rebuked him sternly.
Although she and Hongyu were a pair of bickering lovers who mostly fought, they never actually laid a hand on each other.
The giant python's sudden burst from the ground was clearly an attempt to swallow her and Mu Shuangshuang whole!
How could Lingmu not be angry?
However, before she could finish speaking, the giant python, its eyes red, charged forward.
"Miss, please be careful."
Lingmu's expression changed drastically. She raised her hand and waved, sending a deluge of spider silk spreading forward to coil around the giant python. At the same time, she pulled Mu Shuangshuang aside and flew backward.
Unexpectedly, the giant python possessed terrifying destructive power at this moment, breaking free from the spider silk almost instantly and continuing to charge towards the two.
Lingmu was taken aback by Hongyu's quick escape from the spider web and was momentarily stunned.
Mu Shuangshuang kicked the stunned Lingmu aside, and then was swallowed whole by the charging giant python...
"Miss! Hongyu, have you really gone mad? How dare you swallow me!"
The giant python seemed oblivious to this, shook its head, and charged at Lingmu again.
It had only charged halfway when it suddenly let out an angry roar, and its massive body began to roll wildly, lashing the ground.
Lingmu! Quickly, subdue her!
Mu Shuangshuang's voice came from inside the python's belly. Clearly, even if swallowed alive, the python would still need to expend a great deal of effort to kill the little scorpion.
