The Battle Through Heaven
The Devil Snake Xia Mang
The night gradually covered the entire desert. The moon hung like a silver plate high in the distant sky, scattering the cool moonlight above the ground …
There were some people in that remote desert. However, surprisingly, there were loud and warm human voices on the hill. The sound spread out and significantly reduced the calm warmth around it.
Quite a pile of flames were emitting sparks that flew into the sky from within the camp at the top of the hill. The light from the flame lit up the entire campground until it was bright enough. Many people surrounded the piles of fire. Their hands held several bottles of wine as they laughed out loud. After that, the bottles collided, emitting a ‘ping’ sound amidst laughter.
Xiao Yan sat beside a pile of flames. He smiled as he looked at the large people around him, who had been drunk until their faces turned red. This kind of atmosphere was something that he rarely experienced.
’’ Brother Xiao Yan, here. Drink a little to warm your body. Desert's cold. ’’ Laughter suddenly sounded as Xiao Yan fanned the flames. Immediately, a wine bottle flew towards him. Xiao Yan extended his hand and accurately grabbed it. After which, he lifted his head to look at Han Chong, who had the smell of alcohol all over his body. He then smiled while nodding. ” Thank you, your brother Han Chong. ’
After saying this, he lifted the wine bottle and sipped two mouthfuls. A fiery heat rose from his stomach, causing a flushed face on his face.
’’ Ha ha, little boy Xiao Yan, not bad. You still have a human spirit. ” Some of the surrounding Han clan guards involuntarily smiled and praised when they saw that/it Xiao Yan had drunk half a bag of potent wine in one shot.
Xiao Yan smiled at everyone. He was just about to speak when the tent in the middle of the camp suddenly opened. A figure that looked extremely alluring under the moonlight immediately appeared in front of everyone's gazes. That figure was Han Xue.
At this moment, Han Xue seemed to have just taken a shower. Hence, her delicate black hair carried moisture as it floated downwards. At this moment, she seemed to have the additional charm of a woman. This caused quite a number of the younger Han clan guards to have faster heartbeats upon seeing it.
Han Xue walked out of her tent. His gaze randomly glanced at one time. After which, he sat beside the fire not far from Xiao Yan's group. He took out a dagger and took out a piece of grilled meat from the fire rack before slowly putting it into his small mouth. The elegance of slow chewing does not seem to suit the rough chewing environment around it. However, it had to be said that/that the current Han Xue was extremely beautiful and moving.
The voices of Han Chong and the others were involuntarily suppressed after Han Xue came out. Their dirty jokes were also quickly swallowed into their stomachs.
Xiao Yan turned his head and looked at Han Xue who seemed to have the delicateness of belonging to a woman under the light of fire that was mixed with the harsh cold of daylight.
’Hee hee, why? Have you ever been beaten up by a xiao-jie (young lady)? ’’ Han Chong by the side suddenly rushed forward while Xiao Yan focused on Han Xue and gently teased. The warm smile on his face caused this strong man to appear somewhat meaningless at this moment. Of course, everything is male. Therefore, there was no need to hide these words.
Xiao Yan was shocked when he heard this. He immediately laughed and shook his head.
’No need to feel ashamed. Who was younger than thirty in this guard unit that was able to escape the xiao-jie charm? However, they all understood that/that they could only think of such things in their hearts. Xiao-jie was already an elite Dou Wang at a very young age. His outstanding talent was only surpassed by the young queen elder in the entire Han clan. With our status and position as guards, it was a little different from trying to get something that far surpassed us. ’’ Han Chong patted Xiao Yan on the chest and sighed.
Xiao Yan nodded slightly. Although she was unaware of how powerful the Han clan was, being the young lady of the Han clan, Han Xue's status was naturally higher than this guard. Therefore, the young people in the clan who harbored love for her would probably end up with a chaotic dream …
” However, xiao-jie (Young Kiss) is indeed a pretty good person. Although he was usually very harsh, he treated us quite well. If any guards were seriously injured on a mission, he would ask the clan to pay a sum of money to give to the guard family. It should be known that/it once someone loses his or her usefulness elsewhere, the other party will leave you. One must consider himself lucky if the other party does not secretly kill you because they fear that/that you will divulge secrets. ” Han Chong smacked his mouth and said.
Xiao Yan was surprised. It was unexpected that this/that cold-looking lady would actually have such a kind heart.
Han Xue did not have a great appetite. Therefore, he stood up after a while. Her pretty eyes swept over the tent before immediately capturing Han Chong. He spoke indifferently, ” Those on duty tonight should not drink alcohol. Others should drink less. Everyone should pay more attention when we pass through Xia Mang's demon snake territory tomorrow. ’
He did not stay long after saying these words. With gentle steps, he slowly entered his tent before extinguishing the light within.
The atmosphere in the campground area was no longer as relaxed as before when Han Xue re-entered her tent. Some people knit their brows before gently cursing. Since Xiao Yan was quite far away, he was unable to clearly hear what was said. However, he could vaguely see something of a demonic snake. It seemed like any demon snake named Xia Mang that Han Xue mentioned earlier.
Everyone also started throwing away the wine jars after hearing Han Chong's shout. After which, they spread out and strengthened the defenses and patrols in the encampment.
Xiao Yan was slightly stunned as he looked at the campground, which quickly became more serious. A moment later, he stood up and asked, ” Brother Han, what is the demon snake Xia Mang? ‘
Han Chong laughed bitterly when he heard this. He said, ’’ We will pass a place called Ten Thousand Snake Gorge. That place was the territory of the demon snake called Xia Mang. The strength of that fellow might have just reached the Dou Huang class, but even some experts at the peak of the Dou Huang class did not want to be entangled with him because of him, as a demon snake, able to control all rank poison snakes 4 and below in the Ten Thousand Snake Gorge. Therefore, he had occupied that place for many years. One had to pay an expensive toll if one wanted to make it through. Anyone who refused would have difficulty leaving the Ten Thousand Snake Gorge alive. ’
” A class A demon snake Dou Huang? It really had intelligence and knew how to occupy territory and become a bandit? ” Xiao Yan's face was a bit strange when he spoke.
’’ Ranked 6 Magical Beasts mostly have quite high intelligence. Moreover, this Xia Mang had eaten the Demon Transformation pill. Therefore, he could escape the form of a snake. His intelligence was also higher than other rank 6 Magic Wizards. “” Han Chong said.
” Demon Transformation Pill? This medicinal pill could actually allow a magical beast to transform its body? I remembered that/it was only the Body Transformation Pill that had such an effect and it was a tier 7 medicinal pill. ” Xiao Yan spoke with a dumbfounded attitude.
’The Demon Transformation Pill is just a tier 6 medicinal pill. The effect was indeed similar to that of the Body Transformation Pill. However, it only allowed a partial transformation and the effect was much lower than a Body Transformation Pill. Such a medicinal pill was the most sought after in some Magical Beast clans. ’Han Chong explained.
Xiao Yan only sighed in relief after hearing this. He did not understand the worries of Han Xue and the others. After all, the strongest in their convoy was Han Xue, and he only had the strength of a Dou Wang. He was undoubtedly much inferior when compared to Xia Mang.
” Hope this guy won't ask for much money tomorrow. Ugh, brother Xiao Yan, you should go and rest first. I still have to order the others to strengthen our defense and make proper preparations. ’Han Chong sighed. Immediately, he patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder, turned around, and walked towards a tent.
Xiao Yan looked at the encampment, which became calmer. He could only helplessly shake his head. He turned around and went back to his own tent. However, Xiao Yan did not immediately sleep after returning to the tent. Instead, he took out a bottle of medicinal liquid, which he used while training in the magma world back then from his Storage Ring. After that, he applied it all over his body. Such a cold feeling caused the piercing pain within his body to be greatly reduced. Moreover, Xiao Yan was able to feel the threads of warm energy following his skin and slowly fused into his body.
’After a few more days, the injuries I received will gradually increase. At that time, my body will be able to accommodate the entry of some Dou Qi. ’
Xiao Yan sensed the changes within his body and his expression also relaxed. He put linen clothes on his body. After which, he sat down cross-legged and entered the training state, carefully absorbing the natural energy to repair his injured body.
The next day, Xiao Yan opened his eyes when some sounds rang out inside the campground. He clenched his fists, felt a weakening pain within his body, and involuntarily smiled. Perhaps it was because he ended up getting injured often, but his recovery rate in the face of such injuries caused him to feel shocked.
After getting up and arranging his clothes, Xiao Yan walked out of the tent. He smiled at Han Chong's group, who rushed to pack up the camp, before stepping forward and lending a hand.
Han Chong's group, who were aware of Han Xue's character, did not refuse Xiao Yan's help. They simply smiled and handed some simpler tasks to Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan threw the tent in his hand at the carriage and had just turned around when a calm fragrance passed him. The figure immediately stopped and a pair of beautiful eyes swept over. Weak voice also sounded, ’’ You will continue to be on the train today. Don't comeout. ’
He did not give Xiao Yan a chance to speak. He went back to his own car. After which, a cold cry moved out from within it.
’’Start convoy!’ ’
The corner of Xiao Yan's mouth trembled involuntarily as he looked at the convoy, which continued forward with a creaking sound. ’’ This guy really isn't bad. I'll just wait and see. If an accident happens, I'll extend a hand. ’ If you find any error (broken link, non-standard content, etc.), Please let us know so we can fix it as soon as possible.
