At the foot of the mountain, He Zhennan took the Supreme Profound Snake and left.
Tu Xiao'an watched his master's tall figure depart and muttered, 'Master, you really don't have to blame yourself so much.'
"It's a knot in his heart,"
Meilin said softly, gently stroking the Silver White Snake's glistening Snake Skin.
"Sister Meilin, do you think I should reveal myself to Master? If I do, will it untie the knot in his heart?"
Tu Xiao'an's Snake Pupils brightened as he spoke. After all, he was still very much alive, just in a different form.
Meilin smiled. "That's something you have to decide for yourself."
"Then I'll decide after my mom's illness is cured."
At that moment, Tu Xiao'an noticed it was getting late and he should probably head home. It had been a long day, but at least his efforts hadn't been in vain; he had gotten his hands on the Supreme Profound Snake.
"Xiao'an, why don't you skip going home tonight? Come sleep at my place."
