"I don't make a habit of letting demons off."
As his words fell, a figure slowly emerged from the darkness.
It was Mo Yun.
The instant he had sensed a demon's presence in his room, he had concealed his aura and rushed over as fast as he could. He had arrived just in time to witness the entire scene and hear every word exchanged between the man and the snake.
At Mo Yun's sudden appearance, a distinctly human look of astonishment surfaced in the Black Serpent's cold, slit pupils.
It had never imagined a human could evade its perception and hide right under its nose!
More absurdly, judging by his aura, this human's cultivation was merely at the middle third tier!

"Have I gone mad, or has the world gone mad?" For a moment, the Black Serpent began questioning its entire existence as a demon.
Meanwhile, the moment Chen Guangyao recognized the newcomer's face, he turned deathly pale. He scrambled over to the Black Serpent, his voice trembling uncontrollably:
"M-my lord, h-he's that genius disciple from the Five Elements Sect..."
"What?!" The Black Serpent's slit pupils abruptly contracted.
"W-what do we do, my lord?" Every hair on Chen Guangyao's body stood on end, and even his breathing faltered.

"What else can we do?
