They say fate can be a cruel serpent indeed. The Half-Snake People of this realm wish only to bear children resembling those of the Human Race, while lamenting their inability to produce Half-Snake offspring. In their desperation to find their ancestors, their search ended with the destruction of their clan!
When the Bald Elder and the old woman realized Gu Shi Yi was of their kin, they were both stunned and thrilled, overwhelmed with excitement.
"After so many years... can we finally shed our beast bodies? Can we finally cease to be half-snakes?"
Their excitement lasted for a moment before they remembered that Gu Shi Yi was already chasing the phantom into the valley. The Bald Elder immediately turned and shouted loudly.
"Quick! Quick! Quick! Call the White Scale Guards back... call them back!"
Someone below obeyed and went, but soon after, returned with a nervous expression to report.
"Cl... Clan Leader, they've already entered the Yin Yang Pond!"
"What!"
