The Crimson Vine Snake was an ancient savage beast, its Bloodline Power nearly as strong as the Heaven-Devouring Wolf's. The Crimson Vine Snake was an unusual species among the vine snakes, with a powerful bloodline and extraordinary strength, and was quite rare. However, the Purple Mist Spirit Mink was its natural nemesis, which was why Little Purple's family had been able to subdue and eat those Crimson Vine Snakes with ease.
Li Huo had certainly been unlucky. He had originally wanted to use the Crimson Vine Snakes to keep Ling Tian there, but instead, he'd delivered them right into the minks' mouths. If he'd known Ling Tian's group had a Purple Mist Spirit Mink with them, he never would have sent the Crimson Vine Snakes to their deaths.
After hearing Old Man Ling's explanation, Hua Min'er and the others breathed a long sigh of relief. Lian Yue, however, was still confused. "Elder Ling, that doesn't seem right. Brother Tian isn't afraid of poison, but his current state is strange. It's as if he's about to burst into flames."
"Ahem. The Crimson Vine Snake is a fire-attributed savage beast. After being bitten, the fire poison attacks the heart." Old Man Ling looked a little awkward, but quickly covered it up. "There's no need to worry, though. Tian'er isn't in any danger."
Hua Min'er and the others were somewhat skeptical, but when they saw that Old Man Ling wasn't worried, they put their minds at ease. Lian Yue glanced at Bone Soul and the others, who still refused to retreat in the distance, and her pretty face turned cold. "Elder Ling, what should we do about them?"
"They're no match for us, but Li Huo gave them strict orders not to let us leave. We're stuck like this. What a nuisance." Thousand
