The Fire Spirit Snake Is Gravely Wounded

Just as Xiao Yu was refining Poison Pill for Xiao Yi Xian, outside the city, the Mo Family family, led by Mo Cheng, finally intercepted Qing Lin, who was about to leave, in a desert area.

Qing Lin looked at the group of people who had stopped her with some nervousness and wariness, and asked timidly, "What... what do you want to do?"

Seeing Qing Lin's nervous expression, the group of the Mo Family men burst into laughter. Mo Cheng's aged face revealed a cunning smile as he looked at Qing Lin and chuckled, "Little girl, why did you come out alone to pick medicinal herbs?"

Qing Lin felt a little scared, but she still answered Mo Cheng's question, "I... I want to become stronger so that I can serve by your side, young master, and not become a burden to you!"

Upon hearing Qing Lin's words, a glint of cunning flashed in Mo Cheng's eyes, before he chuckled, "Oh? Is that so? Since you want to become stronger, I can help you!"

Mo Cheng's words brought a flicker of joy to Qing Lin's face, but her expression quickly darkened as she said, "But I have no money, I'm just a maid!"

Seeing Qing Lin's appearance, Mo Cheng coaxed her like a big bad wolf trying to lure a little girl, "I don't need your money, I just want one thing from you. If you agree, I can help you become stronger, how about it?"

Qing Lin now looked at Mo Cheng with some suspicion. She was just a maid; what valuable things could she possibly have that would catch the eye of this old man?

So Qing Lin said, "No need. If I want to become stronger, I can ask Young Master for help. Thank you for your kindness, I'm going back now!"

Seeing Qing Lin about to leave, Mo Cheng could no longer pretend and revealed his true colors, saying with a sinister smile, "If you don't agree today, you might not leave this place alive!"

Qing Lin frowned slightly and asked, "What do you want?"

"What are you doing, you little brat? Your grandpa has taken a liking to your eyes. I really love those Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils. They're a waste on you. Why don't you let me use them instead!" Mo Cheng smiled fiercely, then beckoned his men to step forward and tie Qing Lin up!

Although Qing Lin is still somewhat timid, she is much better than before. Moreover, she now has a Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake, a magical beast comparable to Dou Ling expert, as her guardian, so she naturally has some confidence!

Seeing the crowd gathering around, Qing Lin whispered, "Go!"

The Mo Family family members who had surrounded Qing Lin were looking at her with sinister expressions, ready to capture Qing Lin and take her back. But then, a sudden change occurred. A red light flashed suddenly at Qing Lin's sleeve. Before anyone could react, the Fire Spirit Snake's suddenly enlarged tail swept fiercely around Qing Lin.

"Ah!"

Screams erupted as the Mo Family members were swept away by the Fire Spirit Snake's Fire Spirit Snake. Many suffered broken ribs. Seeing the people being swept away, Mo Cheng's face darkened.

Looking at the Fire Spirit Snake coiled around Qing Lin, Mo Cheng said fiercely, "So you have a Fire Spirit Snake as a pet. No wonder you have the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils. The medical texts passed down from our ancestors must be true. Even a little girl like you, who isn't even Dou Zhe, can control a magical beast comparable to a human Dou Ling expert. Does that mean I can control fifth- or even sixth-tier magical beasts for my own use?"

"At that time, I, Mo Cheng, will be the sole patriarch of the Mo Family, the very heaven of the Mo Family. The Northeast, and even the entire Jia Ma Empire, will submit to my feet. What will become of the Jia Ma Imperial Family? I can even regard the Misty Cloud Sect as nothing! Hahaha!" Thinking to the end, Mo Cheng couldn't help but burst into laughter. He seemed to already see himself standing at the pinnacle of the Jia Ma Empire!

Qing Lin tilted her head, looking at the strange old man laughing heartily in front of her. Not wanting to cause trouble, she was about to leave when Mo Cheng said directly, "Want to leave? Leave your eyes behind first!"

After saying that, Mo Cheng charged towards Qing Lin with a fierce aura. The Fire Spirit Snake Serpent hissed and its eyes were filled with bloodthirsty killing intent. In the eyes of the Fire Spirit Snake, everyone who harmed Qing Lin must die!

The two collided in each other's mouths, constantly emitting strong gusts of air that dispersed in all directions. Under the protection of the Fire Spirit Snake, Qing Lin was not harmed.

"You beast, take this punch!" Mo Cheng swung a punch directly at the head of the Fire Spirit Snake. The Fire Spirit Snake was caught off guard and was hit directly. The pain immediately drove the Fire Spirit Snake mad, and it opened its mouth to bite at Mo Cheng.

Mo Cheng charged towards the Fire Spirit Snake without giving an inch, and the two began close combat. After leaving the magma, the Fire Spirit Snake's strength was greatly reduced. Under Mo Cheng's repeated punches, blood marks appeared on its body, and Qing Lin couldn't help but worry about the Fire Spirit Snake.

Bang!

Another punch landed on the Fire Spirit Snake. Mo Cheng used the recoil to stagger back a few distance, and looking at the Fire Spirit Snake shaking its head, he grinned maliciously, "This beast does have some strength, but I don't want to play with you anymore. It's time to end this!"

After speaking, Mo Cheng curled up, and with a sudden jolt of his left hand, a fierce, hidden force shattered his sleeve. On his exposed arm, one could clearly see veins like small snakes, throbbing constantly, as if something was bursting out of his body. His palm also suddenly widened considerably, and his normally normal fingernails grew by half an inch, turning pitch black.

This arm had completely deviated from the category of human limbs, resembling more the limbs of a magical beast. Qing Lin turned pale with fright upon seeing this. The Fire Spirit Snake hissed and began to throb incessantly at its neck, as it prepared a deadly attack.

Mo Cheng smiled fiercely, his Dou Qi surging into his arm, gradually rising into a pale red glow, like an arm of flame. "Let's test the power of Fifth-Order Magical Beast!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Cheng's figure became incredibly fast. At this moment, the Fire Spirit Snake also finished charging up, and two pillars of magma suddenly erupted from its mouth. However, this speed was still not enough to keep up with Mo Cheng, and Mo Cheng did not intend to dodge. He rushed towards the two pillars of magma.

Bang! Bang bang!

The Blazing Mountain-Breaking Rhinoceros's forelimbs naturally possessed fire resistance, and given that the Blazing Mountain-Breaking Rhinoceros was Fifth-Order Magical Beast, far surpassing the Fire Spirit Snake in strength, these two pillars of magma simply couldn't penetrate Mo Cheng's arm.

Boom!

With a loud bang, Mo Cheng passed directly through the magma pillar and arrived in front of the Fire Spirit Snake. He raised his left arm and slammed it down hard on the Fire Spirit Snake Mo Cheng, a cruel smile on his face.

The Fire Spirit Snake was sent flying by Mo Cheng's smash, its crimson blood mixed with a few snake scales spilling from its mouth Fire Spirit Snake massive body crashed heavily onto the sand not far away!

"No!" Qing Lin couldn't stop it all. She could only watch as the Fire Spirit Snake was severely injured. Ignoring the danger, she ran to the Fire Spirit Snake's side. Tears from her eyes dripped onto the Fire Spirit Snake's body. Its huge snake eyes became dull and lifeless, and it looked listless.

A light emanated from the pale green mark on the Fire Spirit Snake's forehead, and its body began to shrink rapidly, darting into Qing Lin Fire Spirit Snake's sleeve. Qing Lin wiped away her tears, her eyes sharp and stubborn as she looked at Mo Cheng, saying, "Young Master will avenge me!"

"Hahaha!" Mo Cheng laughed wildly at the sky, "Is that so? Then let him come to the Mo Family!"
