Because That's the Kind of Person You Were to Begin With

The next day, when the sun was high in the sky, Xiao Tian woke up in Qing Lin's palace.

Lying beside him were two stunningly beautiful women, one with blue hair and the other with silver hair, both with expressions of satisfaction and exhaustion.

Xiao Tian Xiao Tian couldn't help but smile as he recalled the exotic atmosphere of last night.

Since nobody likes these exotic details, I won't go into them.

"You two lazybones, time to get up!"

Xiao Tian patted their bottoms, and they groggily opened their eyes.

"Qing Er, I'm taking you to get something today. Moon, do you want to come along?"

Xiao Tian looked at the adorable Qing Lin, put his arm around her, and said...

"No, young master, you've already given me enough." Qing Lin hurriedly shook her head in refusal, her body involuntarily shrinking back.

Han Yue, standing to the side, also looked clearly opposed, crossing her arms and saying, "Go find them, we don't want them."

Xiao Tian could tell from their expressions that they had misunderstood him, and he helplessly rubbed his forehead. "What are you thinking? Do I look like that kind of person?"

"Doesn't seem like it."

Because that's the kind of person you are.

Han Yue and Qing Lin responded to Xiao Tian with perfect understanding, each saying a sentence.

"Clap clap!"

Xiao Tian patted their bottoms twice. "I'm planning to take Qing Lin to get something she desperately needs; it will be very useful for her in the future."

"Yeah?"

Han Yue looked at him suspiciously, her face full of disbelief.

"What is it, young master?" Qing Lin asked Xiao Tian curiously, her voice carrying a hint of seduction.

"It's the same thing as the snake spirit I gave you last time, but it's much, much better."

Xiao Tian stroked Qing Lin's little face and said seriously.

"When you take this soul, will you be in danger, young master? If so, then Qing Lin is no longer needed."

Xiao Tian was also moved by Qing Lin's words and couldn't help but hug her tightly.

He realized that Qing Lin would need to collect the soul himself, but there shouldn't be too much of a problem. "I won't be in any danger, but you'll have to subdue this thing yourself. Are you willing to try?"

"Qing Lin can do it," Qing Lin said firmly, not wanting the young master to be disappointed in her. "Qing Lin will help the young master get up and wash."

After saying that, Qing Lin left Xiao Tian's embrace, and Han Yue also got up.

It took Xiao Tian Xiao Tian more than ten minutes to get dressed with the help of the two men, during which time he received quite a few disdainful looks from them.

After washing up, the three dressed neatly and walked out of the palace gate.

Xiao Tian briefly explained the matter to Yun Yun, Xiao Yi Xian, and the others.

They didn't plan to come along, allowing the three of them to enjoy some time alone together.

After leaving the Free and Unfettered World, the three did not rush on their journey, but instead strolled around the cities along the way.

During the trip, the two women kept buying things, some for themselves and some for their other friends.

Xiao Tian also bought a lot of relatively rare medicinal herbs from some herbal medicine shops, and also got quite a few bargains.

The three of them joked and played around the whole way, their smiles never fading.

Han Yue, in particular, had lost her usual aloofness and detachment from worldly affairs. Instead, she acted like a young girl, holding hands with Qing Lin and looking around.

Xiao Tian followed closely behind them; Qing Lin and Han Yue were actually in similar states of mind.

Qing Lin suffers from low self-esteem due to constant discrimination from a young age.

Because of the obligations she had to fulfill, Han Yue forced herself to abandon her girlish feelings and thus pretended to be aloof.

Now, because of Xiao Tian, both of them have changed their fate, so they no longer care about anything and are being themselves again.

The three of them traveled at a leisurely pace, stopping frequently along the way, and it took them three full days to finally arrive at the territory of the Heavenly Serpent Kingdom Heavenly Serpent Mansion.

To travel from the Black-Corner Region to the Heavenly Serpent Kingdom, one must cross the Black Domain Great Plains, but this place poses no problem for someone of their strength.

Using the intelligence gathered by the Free and Unfettered Hall, they eventually arrived near the Heavenly Serpent Mansion's base.

The entire Heavenly Serpent Mansion was built against the mountain, and at the foot of the mountain where the Heavenly Serpent Mansion was located, there was a huge city.

Instead of heading directly to the Heavenly Serpent Mansion's headquarters, Xiao Tian and his companions decided to show them around this foreign city to satisfy their curiosity.

"This place is not as good as our Free and Unfettered City." Qing Lin looked around at the houses and rooftops, which were decorated with snake elements, and the walls were covered with many snake totems, making it look a little creepy.

"It suits the name quite well." Han Yue nodded in agreement.

After looking around at the things sold in the city, the two lost much of their interest.

Girls generally only like cute things, and most girls don't like snakes. Of course, there is one type of snake they like: Xiao Tian's giant python.

Inside the Heavenly Serpent Mansion's residence, Xiao Tian sensed a Five Star Dou Zong inside, who was presumably the Mansion Lord of the Heavenly Serpent Mansion.

"Do you want to continue shopping?" Xiao Tian asked, looking at the two women who were clearly enjoying themselves.

"No, nothing here is interesting, and we've already seen enough. It's time to get down to business," the two women said in unison, their perfect understanding befitting comrades who had shared a gunshot wound.

"Then let's get ready to move in."

Xiao Tian patted the two girls on the head, and they nodded in response.

"You lowly people, do you even know who our master is?"

"It's an honor for you that our master has taken a liking to your daughter."

Several slightly arrogant voices reached Xiao Tian and his companions' ears.

Dozens of meters away from Xiao Tian and his group, several men dressed as guards, with Heavenly Serpent Totem tattooed on their backs, surrounded a middle-aged man and a young woman.

There were many people watching from a distance, all looking on with pity for the woman, but no one dared to utter a sound.

At the very front of this group of guards stood a handsome young man, but his face was slightly pale, clearly indicating that he had been ravaged by alcohol and women.

Xiao Tian sensed the same aura emanating from this young man as that of the Dou Zong from the Heavenly Serpent Mansion, and a plan immediately formed in his mind.

I originally planned to forcibly seize the soul of the Ancient Heavenly Serpent, but now it seems unnecessary; I might be able to get it easily.

The martial arts world isn't just about fighting and killing; it's also about "human relationships and social graces."

Seeing Xiao Tianyi's cunning expression, the two women immediately felt sorry for the young man. As long as he showed that look, he definitely didn't have any bad intentions.

"My beauty, I advise you to come with me obediently and not to put up any futile resistance."

The young man spoke with a wicked grin, and then waved to his guard.

Upon hearing his master's order, he rubbed his hands together and lewdly grinned as he approached the father and daughter.

"Bang!!"

They hadn't taken more than a few steps when they were blasted away by a powerful force, flying through the air in a perfect parabola before landing lifeless.

The young man was lifted up by the neck with one hand.

"Who are you? Do you know who I am? I advise you not to meddle in other people's business, lest you lose your life."

The young man didn't forget to make threats, clearly showing his usual arrogant and domineering nature.

You don't need to know who I am. Just answer my questions, understand?

Xiao Tian spoke coldly, his voice like an echo from Hell, and he tightened his grip on Xiao Tian's hand slightly.

Feeling the sensation of death and suffocation, the young man nodded rapidly.
