Rare and precious medicinal herbs like the Blood Python Branch must be guarded by powerful demonic beasts.
In the blink of an eye, several members of the evil group had already lost their lives in the mouths of the blood python.
"This blood python is incredibly powerful, at least a thousand-year-old demon beast. Even if we all joined forces, we wouldn't be a match for it. Let's go!" Dao Tu decisively gave the order, otherwise they would all be wiped out here today.
The members of the Wolf Nightmare Gang turned and ran in the opposite direction.
But how could their speed compare to that of the thousand-year-old blood python? Before long, those who lagged behind were swallowed up by the blood python one by one.
When the skinny monkey saw the blood python about to catch up with him, his eyes darted around, and he suddenly attacked Ruan Xiyan beside him.
He wanted to throw Ruan Xiyan into the blood python's mouth, firstly to vent his hatred, and secondly, to give the blood python more time to escape after swallowing him.
Before the skinny monkey's hand could even touch Ruan Xiyan, a sharp pain shot through his spiritual sea, causing him to momentarily dazed.
The next moment, Ruan Xiyan grabbed him, smiled slightly at him, and said, "I'll give you a ride, no need to thank me." Then she suddenly flung him toward the blood python.
"No—Commander, save me!" Before the skinny monkey's scream could finish, the blood python, with its head raised and mouth wide open, bit off his body and swallowed him.
Those who harm others will ultimately harm themselves! Ruan Xiyan did not stop and ran forward with the members of the Wolf Nightmare Gang.
She didn't want to reveal her own strength too early, as she hadn't yet figured out the Wolf Nightmare Gang's capabilities.
We can use this giant worm as a window to observe and see what trump cards the Wolf Nightmare Gang has up their sleeve.
Ruan Xiyan followed them as they fled at a leisurely pace. When they were fast, she quickened her pace; when they were slow, she considerately slowed down.
Dao Tu cursed under his breath. This blood python was really troublesome; he had been running for so long but still couldn't shake it off.
The Wolf Nightmare Gang is suffering increasing losses; we can no longer allow this beast to run rampant.
Dao Tu suddenly stopped in his tracks. "Attack together and kill this beast!"
He took out a mid-grade sacred artifact, his eyes filled with heartache. This treasure, which he had painstakingly accumulated with his malevolent energy to exchange for from the Fiend Guild, was about to be given away to this beast before he could even enjoy it.
However, compared to treasures, life is more important.
Dao Tu unleashed the sacred artifact in his hand, infusing it with the power of his life essence.
Everyone else stopped and used their strength to attack the blood python, drawing its attention.
After being struck by several powerful balls, the Blood Python roared angrily at them, spewing venom from its mouth. Those whose skin was touched by the venom began to ulcerate, and they screamed in pain.
Just as the Blood Python was about to wreak havoc, the Sacred Artifact in Dao Tu's hand had already been fully charged.
The black chains flew directly towards the blood python, wrapping around its body in layers.
The blood python twisted and turned, its power surging. Just as the chains were about to break, Dao Tu gritted his teeth and hardened his heart.
"burst!"
With a blinding flash of light, the aftershocks of the sacred artifact's explosion followed, destroying all the surrounding trees and rocks.
The blood python was broken into pieces, and in the aftershocks of the force, it was churned into a bloody pulp.
A trickle of blood spilled from Dao Tu's lips; the power unleashed by the sacred artifact, sacrificed with his own blood essence, was truly terrifying.
It's a pity that the sacred artifact, which had been obtained with great difficulty, was destroyed just like that.
The others looked relieved to have escaped death, collapsing helplessly to the ground.
At this point, the Wolf Nightmare Gang had less than ten members left, suffering heavy casualties.
Dao Tu looked at the Blood Python Branch in his hand, unsure whether it was a stroke of luck or misfortune, because the Wolf Nightmare Gang's strength had been greatly diminished because of it.
"Commander, this kid killed Skinny Monkey. If it weren't for him, Skinny Monkey wouldn't have died." One of the men who was on good terms with Skinny Monkey pointed angrily at Ruan Xiyan.
He clearly saw that it was this kid who threw the skinny monkey into the blood python's mouth.
"What? He's allowed to kill me, but I'm not allowed to fight back?" Ruan Xiyan mocked.
"We'll talk about this later. The most important thing right now is to leave the Fallen Sword Demon Cave," Dao Tu said.
This is really bad luck. I suffered heavy losses right from the start. I'd better leave the Fallen Sword Demon Cave first.
As for this kid, whether he escaped from the blood python's mouth was just good luck or he really had the strength is unknown.
It's best not to clash with him now, lest we disturb the other demonic beasts and suffer even greater losses. We can find another opportunity to teach him a lesson once we leave the Fallen Sword Demon Cave.
Although the others were unwilling to leave the Fallen Sword Demon Cave, they all obeyed Dao Tu's orders.
"Pah! What bad luck! This time things are going so badly, I think it's just because we've got another jinx."
"It must be. It's all because of him, that pretty boy, that we suffered such heavy losses."
Those people were frustrated, so they vented their anger on Ruan Xiyan, who seemed easier to manipulate.
Ruan Xiyan's lips curled into a half-smile. Was there something about her that made them mistakenly think she was easy to bully?
Now that we've figured out their background and they've been through a battle, when's the better time to kill them?
A cold glint flashed in Ruan Xiyan's eyes, and the killing began!
With a swift movement, she appeared in front of the cursing men, and with a swift stroke of her knife, she chopped them down like cabbages, giving them no chance to react.
"Boy, what do you think you're doing!" The sudden turn of events prompted Dao Tu to demand an answer in a stern voice.
"What am I doing? Killing you all, isn't that clear enough?" Ruan Xiyan said as she killed another person.
Most importantly, the man was already on guard, but he still couldn't block Ruan Xiyan's killing move.
"Haven't you heard the saying 'When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits'? Today, I'm going to be the fisherman." Ruan Xiyan's strength was suddenly revealed.
"Mid-level Pseudo-Immortal Realm!" Those people trembled as they saw the power emanating from Ruan Xiyan. "You've been hiding your strength all along."
Dao Tu took a step back, realizing he had been outmaneuvered by this kid.
His strength was only at the low-level pseudo-immortal realm, not to mention that he was injured in the battle with the blood python.
"Ling Xi, let's talk this out. You are a member of our Wolf Nightmare Guild. Members of the guild cannot kill each other. This is a rule of the guild."
"If you attack us, you're disrespecting the Sha Tuan Guild. Do you want to make enemies of the entire Sha Tuan Guild? You'll be hunted down by all the Sha Tuan members!" Dao Tu tried to intimidate Ruan Xiyan by using the Sha Tuan Guild as leverage.
"The Fiend Guild? I don't care." Ruan Xiyan revealed a bewitching smile. "Besides, if I kill you here, who will know it was me?"
"After all, the Fallen Sword Demon Cave is so dangerous that countless people perish here every day. How could someone as weak as me possibly kill the infamous Wolf Nightmare Gang? I doubt anyone would believe me if I told them."
