Slippery! So slippery!

Luo Yi felt as though he were floating among the clouds, cradling a soft, fragrant body in his arms.

That skin possessed a smoothness and delicacy he had never experienced before. Everywhere he touched was cool and slick, like the finest silk or a clear mountain spring. In this scorching environment, it felt indescribably wonderful.

"Hehehe! Little beauty, why... why is your body so slippery?"

Luo Yi let out a foolish laugh, his hands uncontrollably stroking up and down that "delicate body," greedily savoring the exquisite sensation.

"Come... let this young master have a kiss, mmwah!"

He lowered his head and leaned closer, only to feel something soft and cool gently lick his lips.

"Ah! Why are you sticking out your tongue so mischievously? Hehehe, this young master likes girls like you!"

Delighted, Luo Yi gave in to his lust. Without a second thought, he hugged the "beauty" in his arms and began kissing it fiercely.

Just as he was immersed in this erotic dream, he suddenly caught a strange smell—a peculiar scent mixed with sand and the musk of some wild beast. It made him deeply uncomfortable.

Luo Yi instinctively frowned.

Hiss! Hiss!

Then, an eerie sound came from somewhere nearby.

That sound... sounded a little like... a snake flicking its tongue!

Snake!

Luo Yi's eyes flew open!

What entered his sight was no peerless beauty, but clearly a venomous snake!

A pitch-black venomous snake covered in fine scales was currently coiled atop his chest.

Its upper body was raised high, its cold vertical pupils staring directly at him.

Its forked tongue occasionally licked at the tip of his nose.

"Ahhh! A snake! There's a snake!"

Luo Yi's pupils abruptly constricted, followed by a heart-rending scream!

Almost instinctively, he reached out, grabbed the slick venomous snake, and hurled it away with all his strength!

"Datou! Datou! Where the fuck did you die? Come save me!"

Luo Yi looked around frantically, but there was no sign of Datou anywhere.

"Luo Yi!"

Suddenly, a clear and pleasant voice came from not far away. Luo Yi looked up.

Under the shade of a nearby tree, Qing Mo and Qing Lin stood quietly, watching him coldly. Their gazes made it seem as though they were looking at a dead man.

"Y-you... who are you?" Luo Yi pointed at them in terror, his voice trembling violently.

Qing Lin said nothing. She merely curled her lips into an innocent yet eerie smile.

She slowly raised her fair, jade-like hand and gave Luo Yi a gentle wave.

"Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!"

In an instant, dozens of brightly colored venomous snakes emerged from beneath the sand and from within the forest.

With their heads raised and tongues flicking, they slithered in unison toward Luo Yi.

"Don't come closer! Don't come closer! I told you not to come closer!"

Luo Yi screamed in utter terror! He tried to struggle to his feet and run, but his legs had gone weak, and he could not stand no matter what he did.

With no other choice, he could only brace himself with his hands and inch backward.

"Didn't you like them so much just now? Why are you so scared now?"

Qing Lin tilted her little head, the corners of her lips lifting slightly as a hint of perfectly timed confusion appeared in her emerald eyes.

"Look, aren't they so well-behaved?"

Qing Lin held out her hand. A venomous snake covered in purple patterns immediately slithered obediently over, then affectionately rubbed its head against her pant leg.

"Y-you're not human! You're a monster! You're Snake-People!" Watching this bizarre scene, Luo Yi was on the verge of breaking down. What was going on with this girl? How could a human girl command venomous snakes? No! She was not human. She had to be Snake-People!

Clinging to his last shred of hope, he shouted himself hoarse in every direction, "Datou! Where's Datou? Come save me! I promise I'll let you join the Poison Dragon Mercenary Group! Stop playing dead, you bastard!"

"Datou?" Qing Lin tilted her head, seeming to think seriously. "Oh, you mean the person who brought you here."

"He can't hear you calling him now." Qing Lin smiled sweetly and spoke lightly.

"But I can send you to see him, hehe~"

"No! No! Don't come closer! Please... please spare me..."

As the snakes drew ever closer, Luo Yi's pupils shrank to pinpoints. Warm liquid soaked through his pants—he had wet himself in fear.

"Don't kill me! My father is Luo Tai, the leader of the Poison Dragon Mercenary Group! If you let me go, my father can give you cultivation techniques and combat skills! Right, and gold coins! Fifty thousand! No, a hundred thousand! I'll have my father give you a hundred thousand gold coins! Just let me go!"

"A hundred thousand gold coins?" Upon hearing that, Qing Lin subconsciously turned to look at Qing Mo beside her.

Qing Mo smiled and gently patted her head.

"How foolish! Kill him, then kill his father. The gold coins will still be ours!"

"Brother Qing Mo is right."

Qing Lin nodded in sudden realization. Looking at Luo Yi begging bitterly on the ground, only icy killing intent remained in her eyes.

Her little hand came down once more!

Dozens of venomous snakes shot forward like arrows loosed from a bow, pouncing fiercely upon him! They opened their jaws and sank their fangs into Luo Yi's body in unison!

"Ahhh!"

His heart-rending screams instantly echoed throughout the entire Poplar Forest!

"No! Don't bite me! Get away! You beasts, get away from me!"

Luo Yi's face twisted as he wildly flailed his arms, trying to tear the venomous snakes from his body.

But the snakes' fangs were like steel hooks, embedded deeply in his flesh. The moment he exerted any force, agonizing pain pierced him to the bone!

His muscles began to spasm and convulse uncontrollably!

"Hiss!"

Even Qing Mo could not help drawing in a sharp breath at the sight, goosebumps rising all over his body.

This scene was truly physically revolting.

He had just wanted to tell Qing Lin to go easier on him, but when he saw the excitement and satisfaction on her face, he swallowed the words that had reached his lips.

Forget it, let her enjoy herself. Luo Yi had committed evil in Stone Desert City for years. He deserved this retribution!

"Ahem, well... little Qing Lin, I'll go take a look outside first."

Qing Mo turned his head away, deciding that out of sight was out of mind, and walked toward the edge of the forest. Then, as if recalling something, he turned back and reminded her:

"Oh, right. Don't mess up his face too badly. If his father comes later and can't recognize his precious son, that could be troublesome."

"Okay, Brother Qing Mo. Qing Lin understands."

Qing Lin answered sweetly, her gaze falling upon Luo Yi again. Listening to his screams, Qing Lin felt an inexplicable sense of exhilaration in her heart!
