"Great Elder, aren't there usually at most two companion beasts? How come there are so many?" Mu Yan asked anxiously.

“These black snakes should be summoned by the Cold Prison Snakes to guard the Cold Prison Grass.” The Great Elder of the Muzhu Sect said coldly.

"That Nangong Xi must have known about this a long time ago, otherwise why would she take out the protective talisman formation and hide so early?" Wu Qing said angrily.

"She also told us that picking the Cold Prison Grass requires risking one's life." Mu Yan said as he looked at the overwhelming black snakes all around him.

This really requires risking your life!

"Why didn't she tell us there were so many snakes? If she had told us, we could have made preparations earlier." Wu Qing roared loudly as if he wanted to use anger to cover up the fear in his heart.

"Shut up, do you want those black snakes to attack faster?" The Great Elder of Muzhu Sect said coldly upon seeing this.

Wu Qing looked at the black snakes spitting out their tongues around him and immediately shut up.

She didn't dare to imagine what kind of horrific scene would happen if these black snakes suddenly attacked.

"Great Elder, the Cold Prison Grass is right there." Shang Shu pointed at the Cold Prison Grass swaying in the wind not far away and said.

“Don’t be impulsive. These black snakes are just appetizers. The really powerful ones must be lurking beside the Hanyu Grass.” said the Great Elder of Yuezhu Sect.

"Grand Elder, why don't we withdraw now?" Mu Yan looked at the Grand Elder of Muzhu Sect beside him with some panic.

"It's too late. Let's try to get closer to the direction of Shangzhu Sect." said the great elder of Muzhu Sect.

"Great Elder, aren't we going to pick the Cold Prison Grass?" Wu Qing became anxious when he heard what the Great Elder of Muzhu Sect said.

"In this situation, you still want to pick the Frost Prison Grass? Are you dissatisfied that you are not dying fast enough?" Upon hearing this, the Great Elder of the Muzhu Sect glanced at her and said in a cold voice.

"But if we don't pick the Hanyu Grass, what should we do with the death energy in our bodies?" Wu Qing looked anxious.

"Do you want to die now or later? Or should we find other ways to get rid of the death energy so you don't have to die?" The second elder of the Muzhu Sect looked at her.

"Of course I don't want to die." Wu Qing answered without hesitation.

"In that case, then obey the orders of the Great Elder." The Second Elder of the Muzhu Sect said this and ignored her.

Wu Qing fell silent after hearing that. She looked unwillingly in the direction of the Hanyu Grass, and then followed the crowd as they moved closer to Nangong Xi and the others.

Nangong Xi couldn't help but sigh as he watched their actions.

"Xixi, why are you sighing?" Sang Zi looked at Nangong Xi with curiosity.

"They are still too timid after all." Nangong Xi said.

"Too timid?" Everyone was puzzled.

"The Cold Prison Snake summons so many black snakes to guard the Cold Prison Grass because it needs to sleep to advance. So as long as they break through the group of black snakes, they can pick the Cold Prison Grass. But look at them, they retreat before they even get close to the Cold Prison Grass." Nangong Xi pointed in the direction of Mu Yan and the others.

"I wonder how they would react if they knew that the Cold Prison Snake was asleep?" Cang Wu said with a smile.

"It's a matter of time and fate. These are their own choices." Nangong Xi suddenly became serious.

"Xixi, this look is really...uncomfortable." Sang Zi looked at Nangong Xi, who had a gloomy face and a conflicted expression.

"Puchi..." Nangong Xi was immediately amused by her.

"Those black snakes obviously don't want them to leave and have already launched an attack." Yang Shan pointed outside the talisman protection formation and said.

Everyone looked outside the protective talisman formation and saw that people from the two sects were already fighting with the black snake.

Several of the elders scattered something from time to time, but they could only force the black snakes back a short distance, and soon the black snakes pounced on them again.

"Third Brother, please find a way to save us quickly." Cheng Qin shouted to Joey while being surrounded by black snakes.

It was then that everyone in Yuezhu Sect discovered that Joey had not been with them, but had hidden in Nangong Xi's protective talisman formation long ago.

The same thing happened last time when he fought Zhulong. Joey hid in Nangong Xi's protective talisman formation early on.

"Ms. Nangong, how should I react? Pretend I didn't hear you or just refuse directly?" Joey looked at Nangong Xi.

Nangong Xi: ...

Is this Joey a funny guy sent by the monkey?

He even asked himself how he should react.

"You can react however you want. Anyway, there's no way I can let them enter the protective talisman formation." Nangong Xi said with a smile.

"Okay, then I'll just refuse it directly." Joey nodded seriously.

"Third Brother, please ask Nangong Xi to open the protective talisman formation so that we can go in and take shelter." Hong Jin shouted loudly.

She was very clear about how powerful the defensive power of Nangong Xi's protective talisman formation was.

"Who do you think I am? I even asked Miss Nangong to open the protective talisman formation. I'm already being shameless by staying here. After all, I'm not a disciple of Shangzhu Sect." Joey said speechlessly.

"Then ask her. As long as you ask her, Nangong Xi will definitely agree." Cheng Qin said as if it was a matter of course.

"Don't waste your time here. You should figure out how to deal with the black snakes." Joey's tone was full of helplessness.

Nangong Xi looked at the people outside who were fighting with the group of black snakes. There were so many elders and old men among them. Don’t they even have a magical weapon that can be used for defense?

Not without!

It's just that they are reluctant to use it.

Just as Nangong Xi was sitting in the protective talisman formation watching the show, a small snake with a shiny black body crawled towards Nangong Xi.

I saw it quickly crawling to the protective talisman array and crawling into the protective talisman array without any hindrance.

This shocked everyone in the talisman formation!

This little black snake was actually able to break through the protective talisman array set up by Miss Nangong.

I saw the little black snake come to Nangong Xi and rubbed against Nangong Xi's feet very intimately.

Seeing this, Nangong Xi picked it up by its tail.

It clearly saw a trace of grievance in the little black snake's eyes.

"Can't you speak yet?" Nangong Xi stretched out a finger and poked its little head.

The little black snake shook its little head.

Nangong Xi: ...

It's really weird that he is so powerful but can't speak.

When Nangong Xi was in a daze, she suddenly felt a pain in her finger. Unexpectedly, the little black snake actually bit her finger and recognized its master.

"Master, master, master, you smell so good, so good. I can smell it from outside the protective talisman formation." After recognizing its master, the little black snake could actually speak in human language, and its tone was very excited.

"Oh my... I can actually speak, I can finally speak." The little black snake realized later that he could actually speak human language and was very excited!

Nangong Xi: ...

What kind of stupid snake was I forced to contract?

Why do you look so silly?
