Chapter 616: Chapter 247: Snake Demon Ambush! (Part 2)

But fortunately, at the end of the blood trail, it was the family pig that had been bitten to death, with the blood flowing from its wounds onto the ground.

A hundred meters from the village entrance, under the sunlight, several beams of light reflected off the scales onto the villagers’ faces, blinding them.

After adjusting their position, they saw clearly what was happening a hundred meters away; it was several giant white snakes.

As soon as the villagers saw the snakes, they remembered the poisonous snake massacre in the village a month ago.

Clearly, the dead family pig was the handiwork of these giant snakes.

But fortunately, it seemed these giant snakes were not poisonous, otherwise, what would be left on the ground wouldn’t be red blood, but black pus.

”What’s up with these giant snakes? Why are they always targeting our Great Wilderness Border Village?”

”A perfectly healthy family pig just got bitten to death like that, which family’s pig is it?”

”Looking at this family pig, it weighs several hundred pounds, probably meant to be the year pig. What a pity!”

...

Everyone was talking, and those few white giant snakes just kept watching them from a distance, as if admiring their own work.

Before long, the voice of Old Qi came from behind, ”What happened?”

Old Qi had just come down from the Great Mountain and saw a group of villagers gathered at the village entrance, and a large pool of blood on the ground, so he came to ask what had happened.

The villagers pointed to the white giant snakes in the distance and said, ”Just now, we smelled a scent of blood, came over here, and discovered this situation.”

”Then we saw the giant snakes in the distance.”

Old Qi squinted in the direction they were pointing and murmured, ”These giant snakes are the same ones we encountered in the Great Mountain.”

”They’re non-poisonous, but their bodies are incredibly tough. I’m afraid we don’t have the power to pose any threat to them at the moment.”

Old Qi’s tone was a bit fearful, and although he spoke quietly, the nearby villagers heard him.

”Old Qi, you just encountered those giant snakes in the Great Mountain?”

The moment this was said, the villagers immediately became nervous.

Everyone knew Old Qi went to the Great Mountain to teach inexperienced children by example, and among this group of people were their children.

”Old Qi, are you alright? Are the children okay?”

Old Qi nodded and said, ”We’re fine.”

”I won’t go into details with you, but the key is that in the end, it was Xu Ran’s spirit pet, Little White, that saved us.”

”Otherwise, we would have all been dead in the Great Mountain.”

Upon hearing this, the villagers’ hearts squeezed, then they felt a sense of relief.

”Luckily, we had Little White from Xu Ran, otherwise our young generation in Great Wilderness Border Village would have been wiped out.”

”The Xu Family has saved our Great Wilderness Border Village once again.”

”We must properly thank them this time.”

...

Each parent spoke with great fear, unable to imagine their children dying.

Old Qi nodded, ”You should clean up here first. That family pig that was bitten to death can be discarded; although nothing seems wrong on the surface, there may be hidden toxins. Burn it immediately.”

”We need to discuss with Sick Tiger how to deal with this snake group.”

Having said that, Old Qi turned and left, and the remaining villagers began tidying up.

...

Night.

Xu Binghu returned to the Xu Family compound with two large sheep, and as soon as he entered, he saw Xu Ran, Little White, and Old Qi sitting together.

”Old Qi, you’re here, stay for dinner.” After greeting Old Qi, he turned to complain to Little White.

”Little White, how could you just leave? You left me alone in the Great Mountain to hunt Demon Beasts and collect Demon Blood?”

Originally, today Xu Binghu was supposed to hunt Demon Beasts in the Great Mountain with Little White and a falcon, but Little White suddenly left and did not return afterward.

Although Xu Binghu’s current power allowed him to be safe in the Great Mountain as long as he didn’t go too deep or fight many at once.

Old Qi heard about it and knew that Little White left to save them, he immediately said, ”Sick Tiger, you’ve misunderstood...”

He then fully explained to Xu Binghu the events of the day.

Little White, upon hearing this, raised its head as if to say: See, I did a great thing, what’s wrong with leaving you behind?

After understanding the situation, Xu Binghu thanked Little White, ”Little White, thank you for saving Old Qi and the villagers.”

Understanding the gravity of the situation, he apologized immediately.

Then he said to Old Qi, ”It’s been a month since the poisonous snake massacre, how come a snake group has appeared again?”

Xu Binghu was puzzled.

Little White had already slain the Snake Demon leading the snake group, and the Snake Blood, Snake Gall, and Snake Bone were all used, even the Snake Scales were used to forge armor for Xu Ran.

Even if this group of snakes were mindless beasts, they should at least have some sense of dread, right?

The two and the falcon simultaneously looked at Xu Ran.

Xu Ran naturally knew what was going on.

The sudden reappearance of the snake group, and with a completely different breed than before, might just be another underling of the Snake King, a provocation.

Non-poisonous, but with incredibly tough bodies, suddenly Xu Ran’s eyes lit up.

”Dad, you should go with Old Qi and the others to slay the Snake Demon tomorrow.”

Xu Binghu nodded, ”Hmm, based on Old Qi’s description, I should be able to break through this group of Snake Demons’ defense, no problem.”

Xu Ran nodded, ”Remember, you must accurately break the giant snakes’ skulls and preserve the Snake Scales.”

Old Qi and Xu Binghu were puzzled, and said in unison, ”Why?”

Xu Ran explained, ”Although the blacksmiths in Cast Iron Village have all refined their bodies, and the quality of their weapons has improved, when facing Demon Beasts with higher defense, it turns into the situation we have today.”
