Chapter 619: Chapter 248: They’re Back Again! (Part 2)

Xu Binghu nodded and indicated, ”I remember Elder Qi saying before, snakes are a very vengeful animal.”

”Maybe it’s because last time our Great Wilderness Border Village killed all the poisonous snakes, that’s why they’ve gathered around the village.”

”But this is also good, Snake Demon, all treasures on its body, snake scales, snake blood, snake gall, snake bones, these four treasures are exactly what the Great Wilderness Border Village desperately needs right now!!”

”Elder Qi has already given all the treasures taken from the Snake Demon today to Cast Iron Village, and soon all the Body Refiners in the Great Wilderness Border Village will be equipped with powerful weapons. At that time, the entire village won’t need just me to kill the Snake Demons.”

Xu Binghu looked forward to future scenes.

Today, when he killed the Snake Demon, even though the weapon in his hand was forged by a villager from Cast Iron Village who had undergone the first Body Refining, the blade chipped after just one slice, the hardness was really insufficient.

The strong defensive power of snake scales precisely fits the weapon-making needs, the remaining snake blood, snake gall, and snake bones can also be used for the second Body Refining of the blacksmiths in Cast Iron Village.

In the long term, the Great Wilderness Border Village and Cast Iron Village will only become closer and stronger.

”Once Master Yang undergoes the second and third Body Refining and forges weapons, there will probably be no pressure even when facing the alien Snake Demons.”

While speaking, Little White returned from the Great Mountain, holding several white Snake Demons in its mouth.

Xu Binghu took the Snake Demons and said, ”Looks like it’s roast snake for dinner today.”

Then, with a few swift moves, he cleaned the Snake Demons and put them on a rack to roast.

”Little White, have you noticed anything strange recently?” Xu Ran asked.

Little White shook its head while watching the roasting snake.

”Didn’t find any snake nests?” Xu Ran continued to ask.

Little White still shook its head.

That’s strange.

Little White’s eyes are incredibly sharp, capable of spotting minute differences from thousands of meters in the sky. If it says it hasn’t found Snake Demons, then it truly hasn’t.

If that’s the case, then where are these Snake Demons coming from?

They can’t just appear out of thin air, can they? If they really had such an ability, why go through the trouble of being scattered around like today?

If there’s no problem near the village, then it’s probably within the Great Mountain.

...

The next morning.

Xu Binghu got up early and gathered at the village gate. When he arrived, the people who helped him slay the Snake Demons yesterday were already there.

Beside them was a large box, with shallow marks around it, indicating how heavy it must be.

”Elder Qi, what’s inside this box??” Xu Binghu asked.

Elder Qi laughed, ”Inside are all weapons forged from snake scales. This was completed overnight by the entire Cast Iron Village.”

Last night, after they delivered the materials to Cast Iron Village, Master Yang immediately set the village to work, and after a night’s effort, they obtained this box of weapons.

Xu Binghu curiously opened the box, his eyes lit up instantly.

Inside, there were all kinds of weapons—swords, spears, halberds, axes—twenty pieces in total, and nearly a hundred arrows around the edges of the box.

”These... were made by Master Yang and his team in one night?!”

Elder Qi nodded, saying, ”This is also Cast Iron Village’s way of repaying the kindness shown by our Great Wilderness Border Village. Try them out first!”

Saying this, Elder Qi picked up an iron rod and handed it to Xu Binghu.

Xu Binghu took it, weighed it in his hands, and nodded in satisfaction, ”Hmm, very good, the weight is right, and the hardness is even higher than the Snake Demon’s snake scales!!”

”As expected from weapons produced in Cast Iron Village, extraordinary!!”

Elder Qi was also very happy to see Xu Binghu satisfied, ”As long as you’re happy, Binghu.”

He then looked outside the village, ”Binghu, they’re coming again!!”

Following Elder Qi’s gaze, Xu Binghu’s eyes narrowed slightly, his face showing a hint of heaviness.

The Snake Demons that appeared at the village gate yesterday have reappeared, looking exactly the same as yesterday, standing half their height, tiny snake eyes staring at the village gate, though there was no actual damage, it was quite strange.

Holding the iron rod, he walked straight towards the snake horde, saying, ”Since these Snake Demons keep coming, we’ll keep killing them. After all, the village needs a large amount of snake blood, snake bones, snake galls, and snake scales, they’re basically delivering supplies to us!!”

Since there’s no explanation for these occurrences, we can only gladly accept it.

Moreover, when facing these Snake Demons, the Great Wilderness Border Village experiences no losses; on the contrary, they can use these Snake Demons for practice—a win-win situation.

”Binghu, you’re right, this is a good thing.” He then said to the children behind him, ”You all watch carefully how your Big Brother Binghu slays the Snake Demons.”

”Once you’ve experienced your second Body Refining, I’ll let you hunt the Snake Demons yourselves.”

The children behind were all excited, raising their hands, ”Yes!!”

To them, after the first Body Refining, everyone’s strength reached 700 pounds, with limitless potential. Otherwise, Elder Qi wouldn’t always let this group of kids follow Xu Binghu.

Moreover, they had long wanted to test their strength, though they’d been studying during this short time, Elder Qi wouldn’t allow them to face Demon Beasts alone.

Under the gazes of the crowd, Xu Binghu walked towards the snake horde holding the iron rod.

These snakes, like NPCs, remained motionless, only when Xu Binghu arrived did they flick their tongues, as if saying, you finally came.

”Hmph!” Xu Binghu snorted, then gripped the rod with both hands, planted his foot, kicking up a cloud of dust, while the sound of wind whistled in the air.

Seeing this, the Snake Demons flattened their bodies quickly moving in another direction, their speed so swift, even those who underwent the first Body Refining could not catch their movement.

Yet Xu Binghu, with sharp eyes, directly saw through their trajectory and immediately adjusted his rod in a mysterious manner.

”Die!”

With Xu Binghu’s voice echoing, the thick iron rod smashed heavily onto the ground.

Immediately, Huang Sha rose, and the stones on the ground were jolted loose, with a mark left where the rod hit, like a stick pressed on the ground for long stretches.

In the distance, Elder Qi and others watched Xu Binghu change his technique so quickly, extremely amazed. Such martial arts talent was beyond their learning scope.

Further, his detailed observational skills were also something they lacked.

When the dust settled, they saw that the heads of several Snake Demons had been smashed by Xu Binghu’s iron rod, while the bodies remained untouched, just like yesterday.

”Hiss hiss hiss---

Next, Xu Binghu heard sounds from behind, a seasoned Hunter, knew this was the approach of a Snake Demon without looking back.

Xu Binghu picked up the iron rod planted in the ground and swung it behind, feeling a brief resistance, followed by the sound of several thuds.

”Plop-- Plop-- Plop---

Looking back, Xu Binghu saw several Snake Demons collapsed, their heads bulging at seven inches, indicating that Xu Binghu’s swing had precisely killed the attacking snakes.

For the remaining Snake Demons, Xu Binghu dispatched each one with a single rod, without any pressure.

With yesterday’s experience, dealing with the Snake Demons today was even more effortless.

After dispatching this snake group, Xu Binghu waved at those watching, ”You can come over now!!”

Hearing this, the others approached directly.

Similarly, after yesterday’s visual shock, they were already accustomed to Xu Binghu effortlessly slaying Snake Demons.

After the children cleaned up the various parts of the Snake Demons, Xu Binghu speculated.

”This snake horde was just like yesterday’s, guarding the village gate. Would they appear in the same locations as yesterday?”

His speculation was well-founded.

”It’s possible!” Elder Qi agreed.

Immediately, the group marched grandly to yesterday’s locations again.

As expected, there was a similar group of Snake Demons waiting there.

Not just these two days, but for the entire upcoming month, it remained so, and the Great Wilderness Border Village thus accumulated large amounts of snake scales, waiting for weapon forging...
