I am the snake demon!

Chapter 2 The Prince of Zhenbei's Mansion

"Mother, who are they?"

After taking care of the twelve people in one go, Bai Xuan turned to look at the beautiful woman and said.

"Xuan'er, what's going on with you? You took down twelve people in one go?" Duan Baiyu looked at Bai Xuan in shock, even doubting whether this was really Bai Xuan.

This is a martial artist at the seventh realm.

In the martial arts world, a seventh-realm martial artist is qualified to establish a sect and become a grandmaster.

"Is it that hard to defeat them? Mother, you know I have superhuman strength." Bai Xuan said.

Duan Baiyu was still somewhat surprised. She knew that Bai Xuan was born with superhuman strength. She had raised Bai Xuan from childhood to adulthood as her own son and taught him superior martial arts. However, Bai Xuan was unable to master the basics for a long time. Instead, he was very talented in external martial arts, so she could only teach him external martial arts. But the upper limit of pure external martial arts was no more than the sixth grade.

Bai Xuan can now easily defeat even a seventh-rank official.

"By the way, Mother, who are they? And where is Shi'an?" Bai Xuan asked, puzzled.

He had just heard the man mention the Prince of Zhenbei and his princess.

Could it be that her godmother is also a concubine of the Prince of Zhenbei?

No, it should be said that the man who sneaked into the Taoist temple and was then driven out was the Prince of Zhenbei?

"Shi'an?"

Upon hearing her son's name, the godmother trembled, and her face visibly paled.

Upon seeing his godmother's condition, Bai Xuan immediately sensed something was wrong. His eyes flashed like lightning as he scanned the surroundings, quickly locking onto a corpse that had been split in two ten feet away.

Although it was divided in two, he could see clearly that it was his godmother's only son, and also the brother he had raised by himself, Xu Shi'an.

Now, he is dead and his body is not even a complete corpse.

"Who sent you?"

Bai Xuan was furious upon seeing this. His face turned cold, and he grabbed the leader by the throat with his large hand. He subconsciously revealed a murderous aura, as if a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood were surging behind him.

"The Blood Shadow Holy Cult, its light shines through the ages; none of you can escape it, you will all die!"

The man's limbs were all broken, and Bai Xuan was choking him by the throat. His face was flushed red, and his veins were bulging, but he still showed an arrogant expression.

"die?"

Bai Xuan sneered, "You think you can die? If you don't reveal the real culprit behind this, I'll gouge your eyes out, stuff you into a jar, and lock you in a dark, sunless latrine. You won't be able to move, and you'll have to endure endless darkness. No one will talk to you, not even a sound. Besides the stench, there's nothing. Speaking of which, with your seventh-realm martial arts, you could survive for half a month without food or water, right? That's excellent!"

"You...you're the devil?"

Upon hearing Bai Xuan's words, the man's expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed in horror.

"If you confess honestly, I can let you die quickly. Otherwise, I'll gouge out your eyes, deafen you, force-feed you a drug to make you mute, and finally put you in a wine vat and dump you in a latrine. All that's left is excrement. Let's see if you'll eat it or not," Bai Xuan said coldly.

Upon hearing this, the man trembled uncontrollably. Imagining the scene, he said, "I don't know, I really don't know who's behind it all. It was Chief Shi who gave the order, and we were just following orders."

"Master Shi? What master? Where is he?" Bai Xuan frowned upon hearing this.

"He is the leader of our Blood Shadow Sect's Liangzhou branch, but we don't know where they are. Only he comes to us, we don't come to him!" the man said in fear.

"Then why did you kill my mother?" Bai Xuan asked angrily.

"I...I don't know either, we were just following orders," the man said fearfully.

"Xuan'er, there's no need to ask. The Blood Shadow Sect, one of the four major sects of the Demonic Path, has the worst reputation among them. They commit arson, murder, robbery, and all sorts of evil deeds. They are also assassins. They were the ones who did the dirty work, but this matter may not be what they wanted to do. They know about my relationship with the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, and it is most likely related to the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion. Xuan'er, I need you to accompany me back to the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion," Duan Baiyu said solemnly.

The only son was killed, and there was no one left alive in the entire Yuzhen Temple.

She was determined to avenge this blood debt.

Whoever the mastermind is, she will make him die.

Bai Xuan was slightly taken aback upon hearing this. Although he didn't know much about the human world, he was aware that the Prince of Zhenbei ruled over Liang and Bing provinces. Xuanwu County, the capital of Liang province, was suppressed by a powerful formation, so it wasn't appropriate for a demon like him to go. However, thinking of the tragic death of Xu Shi'an, he immediately threw the person in his hands on the ground like trash and said, "Alright."

With his cultivation level, as long as he doesn't expose himself, no one can discover him.

Moreover, in this world, in a one-on-one fight, there might not be anyone who could defeat him.

My younger brother, whom I watched grow up, is dead. I have to take revenge.

Duan Baiyu nodded slightly, forcing himself to remain calm, and said, "Go and collect the bodies of Lao Ding and Qingxia, I'll take care of Shi'an's remains..."

As he finished speaking, Duan Baiyu's body trembled slightly.

"Mother, why don't you let me do them all?" Bai Xuan said reluctantly.

"No, I brought him into this world, so it should be me who leaves." Duan Baiyu took a deep breath and forced himself to remain calm.

Seeing this, Bai Xuan had no choice but to agree and began to collect the remaining corpses. Looking at the familiar, lifeless faces, the murderous intent in his heart grew stronger.

The person behind it all is unknown.

But the Blood Shadow Cult is certain.

The Four Sects of the Demonic Cult.

Then let's see how good you are at fighting.

Bai Xuan was collecting the corpses when he suddenly heard a rapid sound of hooves, followed by a slight tremor in the ground. Bai Xuan frowned, walked to the entrance of the Taoist temple, and saw a cloud of dust rising in the distance as a cavalry force approached at high speed.

Bai Xuan frowned slightly, looked into the distance, and suddenly his pupils contracted.

The leader of this cavalry was a woman, who was not wearing armor but dressed in a lake-green robe. The breeze blew, vaguely outlining her slender figure. Her eyebrows and eyes were like a painting, and she was a rare beauty.

But that wasn't what shocked Bai Xuan. What truly shocked him was those eyes, which were exactly the same as the ones he had seen years ago.

Although a full century has passed, Bai Xuan is certain that this is what the girl from back then looked like when she grew up.

Therefore, this is the reincarnation of his savior.

Does he have a chance to become an immortal?

No wonder he was able to instinctively deduce the location of Yuzhen Temple back then.

So that's where it is.

Bai Xuan suddenly understood.

At this moment, the light cavalry finally arrived in front of Yuzhen Temple and stopped together. Their movements were so uniform and almost simultaneous that it was astonishing to see such battle-hardened soldiers.

The leading woman in green looked at Bai Xuan standing in front of the Taoist temple, her gaze falling on the jade pendant at Bai Xuan's waist. Her eyes lit up instantly, and she deftly dismounted, walking happily towards Bai Xuan, saying, "Third brother, I'm so glad you're alright. I rushed here as fast as I could, afraid that something might happen."

An unexpected incident has occurred.

Hearing the woman in green's words, Bai Xuan sighed inwardly. Thinking of the deceased Xu Shi'an, his mood immediately sank. Too lazy to correct her mistake, and without asking her identity, he said directly, "Come with me."

The Liangzhou horse, roaming the world.

The iron cavalry of Xiliang roamed across the land.

These cavalrymen belong to the Prince of Zhenbei's mansion.

The godmother should know him.

It's good that you're here; let's see what happened.

Sensing Bai Xuan's low spirits, Xu Yuhua's expression changed slightly. Unsure of the reason, she still left the soldiers outside and entered the Yuzhen Temple with only an old man.

Bai Xuan glanced at the old man, said nothing, and simply led the way.

Xu Yuhua followed Bai Xuan inside, and upon seeing the corpses scattered on the ground, her expression changed drastically. She asked, "Third brother, you've been attacked? How is Auntie?"

"The Blood Shadow Cult just came by and I broke all four of their limbs. You can go and interrogate them. As for Mother? You'll know when you see her," Bai Xuan replied, but couldn't help feeling a little curious. Aunt?

The Blood Shadow Cult members just now called their mother "Princess Consort." These people are from the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, so why would they use a term like "little aunt"?

Speaking of which, Mother only has one son, Shi'an. If Mother were the principal wife, wouldn't Shi'an be the heir of the Prince of Zhenbei?

However, it is impossible for the Prince of Zhenbei to leave his heir alone in the Taoist temple. This place is not close to Xuanwu, the capital of Liangzhou. Judging from the fact that it was destroyed, the Prince of Zhenbei did not arrange enough people, which is unreasonable.

So Mother shouldn't be the principal wife. If she's not the principal wife, yet she's called the princess, then she must be a concubine? Is the principal wife Mother's older sister?

This Prince of Zhenbei is really playing tricks.

Bai Xuan thought to himself, and soon after, he met Duan Baiyu with Xu Yuhua and the old man.

Duan Baiyu, who was preparing Xu Shi'an's body, looked at his son's remains with a sorrowful expression in his eyes. Hearing the voice behind him, he did not react.

Then Bai Xuan's voice rang out: "Mother, people from the Prince of Zhenbei's mansion have arrived."

Duan Baiyu finally came to her senses and turned to look at Xu Yuhua and the old man, especially the old man, whose eyes gleamed with a sharp light. Just as she was about to speak, Xu Yuhua spoke first: "Yuhua greets Aunt."

"Yu Hua?" Duan Baiyu was slightly taken aback, superimposing the beautiful woman before her with the image of the young woman she remembered. After so many years, she should have been overjoyed, but today's events made it difficult for her to smile. She asked, "You've come to see me. Has something happened at the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion?"

Xu Yuhua, without suspicion, said with a solemn expression, "Something has happened. Several months ago, when Father was besieging the demon race in Crescent Moon Gorge, the Northern Wilderness suddenly attacked and ambushed the army. Zhenlan was killed. Father led the army to avenge them, beheading the Wolf King and slaughtering the Northern Wilderness, but his body was exhausted. On the way back, he passed away. To prevent the news from leaking, his death is being kept secret. Before his death, Father wrote to the court that his third brother should inherit the throne, and asked Aunt to take his third brother back to take the throne and take charge of the overall situation."

"Zhenlan is dead? He's dead too?" Duan Baiyu's body trembled violently, and she almost fell over. Then she suddenly realized, "So that's how it is, so that's how it is."
