Only then did the disciples of the various sects rushing toward the treasury see that the enormous black shadow was a giant black python.
This giant black python was an old acquaintance of Zhao Feng's. Outside Three Yang County, he had personally witnessed Su Qingwan grievously wound it with a single sword strike, forcing it to sever its tail to escape.
It all happened in a flash. As the giant python surged out, Xue Yang was caught off guard and instinctively retreated while swinging his sword!
The fierce Sword Qi struck the giant python squarely, leaving a sword mark on its body, but failed to slow it in the slightest. Crunch! The giant python opened its blood-gaping maw and swallowed half of Xue Yang's body in one bite, sending blood splattering everywhere.
Then it charged straight at the others.
The sect disciples paled in horror and scattered in all directions.
Zhao Feng, who had been rushing ahead of the others, was the first in its path!
The giant python's hideous head, almost half the size of a room, hurtled toward him with its bloody maw wide open. It was still missing a fang. After Su Qingwan had broken that fang off, Zhao Feng had collected it and hidden it in his courtyard in Beautiful Water Alley. He had yet to find an opportunity to sell it.
The giant python seemed to recognize Zhao Feng too. Bloodthirsty light flashed in its cold triangular vertical eyes as it charged straight at him.
Inside the underground cavern, space was limited and the distance too short. There was nowhere to dodge!
The scene of Su Qingwan grievously wounding the giant python flashed through Zhao Feng's mind.
*Several months have passed, but this beast definitely hasn't recovered. Otherwise, it wouldn't be hiding here to heal.
