Chapter 23 - Chapter 23

At this moment, the three Old Undead of Immortal Court also realized what was happening. After exchanging bewildered glances, That One, the old woman from Immortal Court, hesitantly asked Demon Snake... Dao:

"So... the Dragon Vein's purpose from the very beginning was that pill that was knocked to an unknown location because of us? And the pill's function was to allow any creature, no matter how severely injured, to instantly recover?"

Demon Snake flicked his tongue, nodding with a grim expression. This precious medicine was a reward given to him by his master when he was in Demon Abyss. There weren't many left, and he had originally planned to find it again after this battle. He never expected that the Dragon Pulse would have its eye on it. What's even more infuriating is that the Dragon Pulse actually managed to get their hands on it!

Compared to Demon Snake's frustration and remorse, the faces of the Three People from the Immortal Court were as black as the bottom of a pot.

"Damn it, the Dragon lineage will definitely give that pill to the Emperor of Great Xia to consume. At that time, The Sovereign of Xia in his prime …" A hint of fear flashed in the old woman's eyes.

"Back then, even Elder Ming, whose cultivation far surpassed ours, was killed by The Sovereign of Xia when he was fully recovered and at his peak strength. If he were to consume that pill, the consequences would be unimaginable!" The old man carrying the sword frowned, deeply worried.

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's hurry back and gather our forces to storm his door. Maybe we can still stop him from taking the pill anyway, given the cautious nature of The Sovereign of Xia, he 'll definitely study the pill before deciding whether to take it!" A head constructed from Spiritual Qi immediately called out to the other members of the Immortal Court.

"Hey! Hey! Hey! Have you guys forgotten about my The Existence?" Just then, Demon Snake's displeased yet slightly mocking voice rang out in the ears of the Immortal Court members, "Don't forget, you guys are still poisoned!"

The three people from the Immortal Court immediately paled. Then, the old woman among them hesitated for a moment before smiling awkwardly and asking Dao, "You heard it too, we were preparing to deal with the Great Xia Dynasty. How about... we call it quits for today?"

"You think you can just give up like that? Why didn't you say you'd give up when you ambushed me? Do you think you're in charge of everything?" Demon Snake sneered. "Let me tell you, it's too late to give up now!"

"It's better for both of us to stop now. Having more friends means having more options you're a smart snake, and I think... even you wouldn't want to provoke the Immortal Court, would you?" The old woman advised Demon Snake with feigned sincerity, but the threat in her words was palpable.

" Immortal Court?" Demon Snake scoffed, his words full of sarcasm. "I dared to rebel against even the supreme Existence of the Master, let alone a mere Immortal Court? If I dare not even provoke the Immortal Court today, wouldn't my act of rebelling against the Master become a joke?"

"gentlemen?"

The three people from the Immortal Court were all taken aback a top-notch, powerful expert like Demon Snake actually had a teacher?

The three people from the Immortal Court were about to ask for more information when Demon Snake revealed a very mocking smile: "Speaking of which... I've been rambling with you guys for so long, guess why...?"

"Huh?" The three people from the Immortal Court were taken aback at first, and then, as if they had realized something, their expressions all turned extremely ugly.

"Looks like you guessed it yes, it's exactly what you suspected!" Demon Snake flicked its tail and said to Dao with a smug grin, "You guys are Desolate Realm Experts after all. It really took me quite a while for my poison to have a lethal effect on you!"

"Don't exaggerate although the poison you used has caused minor ailments in some of us, it's probably not enough to kill us, is it?" the old woman retorted with a cold laugh.

If it weren't for the fact that they felt the Demon Snake's toxin didn't seem to have a significant effect on them, they would have already fled back to the Immortal Court, and would not have stayed here any longer.

"Oh? Is that so? Well then..." Demon Snake's snake tail lashed heavily against the ground behind him, making a dull thud, and then, with a laugh, he said, "So what? Explode!"

Like a thunderclap from a clear sky, when Demon Snake roared out the word "explode," the three Immortal Court members who had been acting as if nothing had happened instantly started bleeding from their mouths and noses, and it looked like they only had one last breath left.

"How...is this possible?"

"how so?"

"No...this shouldn't be happening!"

In the very end, each of the three Immortal Court members left a message before disappearing without a trace.

" Desolate Realm Expert's Physical Body, this is a good thing, we can't waste it!" Demon Snake opened his huge mouth and swallowed the corpses of the three Immortal Court members.

"So, what should we do next?" Demon Snake glanced at Hang City not far away, then looked in the direction where Dragon Pulse had sent Sun Futai and the others away before he fled, his eyes showing hesitation. "Should we devour the entire Hang City first, or go find Sun Futai and the others? This is truly a wonderful choice!"

As for the tiger demon who escaped when Demon Snake devoured the three elders of Immortal Court, Demon Snake couldn't be bothered with him any longer!

Meanwhile, in Huangge Village, many villagers were asking Sun Futai and the others with concern about the Battle of Hang City that's right, the pull of the Dragon Vein had pulled Sun Futai and the others into Huangge Village!

Of course, it wasn't a coincidence that Dragon Pulse sent Sun Futai and the others to Huangge Village. Before Dragon Pulse prepared to escape, he used a soundproof spell to quietly ask the people he was protecting which nearby place they wanted to be sent to. Without hesitation, Constable Zhao gave the exact location of Huangge Village.

Those who were being protected by the Dragon lineage were completely disoriented when they saw that they were about to be abandoned by the fleeing Dragon lineage. They had no idea what to do.

Seeing Constable Zhao's confident and composed demeanor, everyone suddenly felt reassured and assumed that Constable Zhao would make the right choice.

Although there were many Cultivators among these people who were stronger than Constable Zhao, at that moment, everyone regarded him as their leader.

When these people were first brought to Huangge Village by the Dragon Pulse, they immediately noticed something unusual about it. Because many of Zhuifeng Stockade's bandits had been taken back to Huangge Village by Chu Wangyu to be enslaved, they felt that the number of Cultivators in the village seemed abnormally high.
