Banshee Family Training Record

She was about to speak when she suddenly felt a resistance, and in the end, she couldn't bring herself to say the truth. Suppressing her embarrassment, she swallowed the rest of her words.

Meanwhile, in the shadows, hidden behind the verdant foliage, the Holy Maiden of Hehuan did not stray far, but quietly listened to the conversation between the two senior and junior sisters.

When Dongfang Yue first asked the question, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, as if she were smiling. This question did indeed address a key point that she was quite concerned about.

However, Yan Shuiyi's subsequent reaction disappointed her, and she sighed softly.

This woman probably never had the concept of lesbian marriage in her mind.

Upon realizing this, she couldn't help but sigh inwardly: This is difficult. In this way, she would have to start from scratch and slowly implant this concept into her.

but……

As Yan Shuiyi's figure gradually disappeared, a hint of joy appeared in the eyes of the Holy Maiden of Hehuan.

She deserves to do it.

Having made up her mind, the Holy Maiden of Joy turned and drifted away.

Meanwhile, Yan Shui, arm in arm with her junior sister, did not return to the Qingyun Sect's stronghold, but instead traveled all the way to Wei Lake.

In fact, during the earth-shattering battle with the Yellow Python Ancestor, the small hill that served as the Qingyun Sect's base had already been destroyed by the mountain that the former had hurled at them.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have found a secluded spot deep in the mountains to meditate and cultivate, hoping to break through her cultivation barriers.

She and Dongfang Yue leaped onto the lake's surface, where they found Sheng Linglong and the others already waiting for her. Yan Shui didn't deliberately conceal her cultivation aura; her spiritual energy leaked out, immediately causing everyone's eyes to light up with great joy: "Fairy, you've broken through?"

Yan Shui nodded slightly, her expression calm: "I had a feeling about it, so I just tried it and succeeded."

She didn't offer much modesty, immediately drawing envious glances from everyone. Sheng Linglong was also filled with envy, but she quickly looked away and said, "Fairy, since you weren't involved, you might not know, but we've already come up with a general plan."

"I think that even if we have grasped the weakness of the Yellow Python Ancestor, it is still too risky to attack the New Ten Thousand Snake Cave head-on. So it would be safer to find a secret way to sneak into the snake cave and then launch a surprise attack."

She said this, glancing around at everyone, and added, "Most of you have agreed to this plan, Fairy. What do you think?"

Yan Shui nodded slightly: "Of course, all's fair in war, this is the most appropriate way."

"But do we have any connections regarding this channel right now?"

Sheng Linglong had been waiting for these words, and she immediately smiled: "Of course, I do know a way, but this matter still requires Minister Yun to smooth things over for us."

Yan Shui's expression shifted slightly: "Him? Yun Chu'an?"

Sheng Linglong nodded. She was unaware of Yun Chuan's true strength and thought that with his combat power, he was actually unable to participate in the final battle. Therefore, she had been anxious about him not being able to share in the credit these days.

After much thought, she finally came up with this reason. If successful, she would have sufficient grounds to recommend Yun Chuan for credit.

Chapter 502 Encirclement and Infiltration

Yan Shuiyi naturally had no objections and nodded slightly in agreement.

Sheng Linglong nodded and said, "Since no one has any objections, then let's leave it at that for now."

“I went to find him, determined the route, and set off immediately.”

The group reached an agreement to temporarily disband. Sheng Linglong didn't waste a moment, then used her teleportation ability to speed away into the distance.

A moment later, she arrived at the top of Huai Mountain. After calling out a few times, Yun Chu'an came down from Zhu Yunqing's mountain and landed in front of her.

However, after hearing her plan, he couldn't help but worry about its feasibility: "We are all Golden Core cultivators, while Ancestor Huangmang is a Nascent Soul monster whose ability to detect things is a level above ours."

"To sneak in right under his nose... is that really feasible?"

He couldn't help but worry about this, but Sheng Linglong didn't care at all: "What's there to be afraid of? We've already learned about the situation from Bai Suwan: the Yellow Python Clan values ​​physical cultivation the most, pursuing bigger and stronger, and they don't have any in-depth research on meticulous detection."

“If we disguise ourselves and sneak in, we can complete the first round of the raid. At the very least, we can injure the two remaining Golden Core cultivators among the pythons, right? Even if we fail completely, the worst outcome is just a head-on battle, which is much simpler than directly attacking the Ten Thousand Serpent Cave. What do you think?”

She didn't think there was anything wrong with the plan at all, and after she finished speaking, Yun Chu'an had no reason to object: "Okay... that's fine too."

He agreed. In reality, his only concern was that the plan would be exposed. As for connections, he had nothing to worry about.

Due to the recent crackdown, the Huang Mang family is now severely depleted of talent and urgently needs manpower in all aspects. Under these circumstances, the status of the Diao brothers has risen accordingly, and they wield considerable power, making it naturally no problem for them to arrange such a small matter.

Given his reliance on Yun Chuan, arranging all this was naturally not a difficult task for him.

Yun Chu'an nodded slightly: "My mother-in-law will also be participating in this operation, and my third sister has recently broken through to the Golden Core stage. With two more Golden Core cultivators joining us, our chances of winning are even higher."

Sheng Linglong smiled and said, "That's good, congratulations!"

The two made an appointment and then parted ways. Yun Chu'an used his teleportation ability to travel to the Ten Thousand Snake Cave. He casually made up an excuse about "transporting raw materials" and asked Diao De'er for help, asking for several tokens with special access rights.

Diao De'er owed him a lot, and when he heard that he could repay his previous kindness by using his power, he was overjoyed and agreed without the slightest doubt.

Having obtained the travel tokens, Yun Chuan quickly returned to Weihu and handed them over to Sheng Linglong.

The princess then distributed these items to the personnel who were to infiltrate the area, thus preparing for the final operation to eliminate the Yellow Python Ancestor.

A few more days passed, and before they knew it, it was time to close the net.

The cultivators on the border of Zhao and Jin provinces cooperated tacitly for once, entering the mountains together to encircle and sweep away the snake demons, thus reducing their space for survival and activity.

The demon cultivators who were overjoyed at the Yellow Python Ancestor's breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage hadn't even enjoyed a few days of good fortune before many who had returned to join them were killed one after another, forcing them to cower in the Ten Thousand Snake Cave, trembling with fear.

Thus, the large area outside the Cave of Ten Thousand Snakes was once again controlled and completely surrounded by the allied forces.

Zhao Guo's Chen Shuling and his family members were stationed in the east of the Ten Thousand Serpent Cave; You Wensi and Nie Ningshuang's family were stationed in the south; Monk Huijing and Prime Minister Ge led a group of officials and cultivators to be stationed in the west; and as for the north, the Wei River Dragon King was on high alert.

The group laid a tight net, ensuring that no yellow python could escape.

At this moment, to the south, Yun Chu'an, You Wensi, and Nie Ningshuang were all hiding in the dense forest. You Wensi's expression was filled with worry. She knew that Yun Chu'an was going to lead Yan Shui and the others into the interior of the New Ten Thousand Serpent Cave to launch a surprise attack before the formal battle, causing the Yellow Pythons to suffer a round of casualties.

This was undoubtedly a very risky move, and she was genuinely worried about his safety.

Nie Ningshuang's face was full of tension: "Oh my god, I never expected that my first battle after breaking through to the Golden Core stage would be to besiege a Nascent Soul stage cultivator..."

"Ahhh, I'm so nervous! No, no, my heart can't take it..."

Her small hands were placed in front of her full breasts, as if pressing on her own heart, she was so nervous that she couldn't control herself.

Seeing this, Yun Chu'an smiled and couldn't help but tease, "Third Sister, do you really have a heart?"

Nie Ningshuang stamped her foot: "Oh dear, I just came to express that I was very nervous! It's a metaphor, a metaphor!"

Yun Chu'an smiled and said, "Don't worry, Third Sister, they will complete the truly core tasks. We only need to keep watch on the perimeter and eliminate the other two Golden Core Snake Demons."

"In short, we don't need to confront the Nascent Soul stage Yellow Python Ancestor head-on."

He tried to comfort her, but Nie Ning Shuang still looked tense: "But there are enemies among them... Oh dear, we don't have any Nascent Soul cultivators on our side..."

She muttered to herself, but You Wensi didn't care about her nervousness. She just looked at Yun Chuan with worry in her eyes: "You must be careful. You shouldn't be going to do this kind of thing. You must take care to protect yourself."

Yun Chu'an smiled, took her hand, and nodded slightly: "Yes, I know, Mother-in-law."

An unnatural gust of wind drifted from afar, a signal that everyone was ready to take their positions. Yun Chu'an nodded gently, released her hand, and turned to leave: "I'm going. Await my news of victory."

At that moment, on the other side, Chen Shuling stood with his hands behind his back in the dense forest east of the Ten Thousand Snake Cave, squinting as he gazed into the distance.

Beside him, Bai Suwan, still dressed in a light veil, looked at him and said softly, "My lord, have you discovered anything?"

The man withdrew his gaze and continued, "I was just lamenting how short-sighted some people are. Heh, a mere python, having only managed to break through to the Nascent Soul stage by sheer luck, and some families in the country are already eager to come and beg for peace, even wanting to cooperate with them to invade the Jin Kingdom. What a ridiculous thing to do."

"Even if the states of Zhao and Jin have conflicts, they are both vassal states of the Great Zhou. Their competition should be in accordance with the Zhou rites. Is it in accordance with the Zhou rites to cooperate with such a cruel, inhuman, and treacherous monster?"

Through his family's connections in the Zhao capital, he had learned that while the King of Zhao had not outwardly reacted, he had secretly dispatched envoys to cooperate with the Huang Mang family.

King Zhao's reaction chilled him to the bone, and made him realize that if the cooperation between the two sides were to be achieved, then he and his fellow pro-war faction would likely be sacrificed as a result of the cooperation.

Therefore, we must eliminate these pythons!

Chen Shuling was far more enthusiastic than expected today. Bai Suwan smiled slightly, equally delighted: "My lord, there's no need to worry. The princess of Jin and Yan Shui and the others have already infiltrated the Ten Thousand Serpent Cave. After today, this demon cultivator family will be completely wiped out!"

Her tone carried the satisfaction of finally getting revenge, and her beautiful eyes flashed with murderous intent. Chen Shuling also smiled and stroked his beard: "Yes, after this battle, the border will finally be peaceful."

His tone was filled with emotion and a hint of satisfaction. After that day's battle, Yan Shuiyi had even broken through to a higher level, and now no one believed that there could be any surprises in this battle.

The demise of the Yellow Python was already inevitable!

After the two finished their conversation, a figure approached shortly afterward, announcing, "Lord Bai, the operation is about to begin."

Bai Suwan nodded, then bid farewell to Chen Shuling and quietly left with the man.

……

Deep inside the Cave of Ten Thousand Snakes.

"Yes, that's it, that's the mnemonic."

The balding old monk, dressed in tattered robes and sporting a large belly, looked at the giant snake before him with a satisfied expression: "This is a divine skill of my Buddhist sect. You can call it 'Heavenly Dragon Roar.' Once you learn this move, you'll look more like a true dragon, hehe."

Before him, the ancient python with mottled white scales opened its eyes, its pupils filled with excitement: "Thank you, Master!"

Chapter 503 Giant Python Devours Dragon

Now, Huang Mang Laozu Diao San has become the disciple of the old monk before him, making up for his shortcomings and learning a new move. His vertical pupils are filled with flames, and he is eager to fly back to Wei Lake to take revenge on those guys.

Wash away your utter disgrace!

The plump old monk was about to say something when suddenly his expression changed.

Then, a playful look appeared on his face: "Tsk tsk, a few little mice have gotten into your hole."

Yellow Python Ancestor was taken aback: "Master, what do you mean..."

He gradually realized the possibility: "Someone has infiltrated my Serpent's Lair?!"

His tone grew increasingly shocked, and the monk before him nodded slightly: "Yes, and there's more than one, all of them are Golden Core cultivators..."

"It seems they're after you, huh? Heh, my good disciple..."

As the fat monk spoke, a fierce glint appeared in his eyes: "Then it's time to test the results of your studies these past few days, my good disciple!"

The Yellow Python Ancestor's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "Master, I will show you my achievements!"

He turned over and looked out. At that moment, inside the Ten Thousand Snake Cave, three girls, led by Yun Chu'an, were strolling along the edge of the central pit, observing the furnishings and people coming and going.

Yan Shuiyi was visiting such a place for the first time, and her eyes were filled with curiosity. Bai Suwan, on the other hand, looked at the familiar pythons and the human figures they had transformed into, and her eyes were filled with hatred.

The thought of these traitors who destroyed her once prosperous family filled her with unbearable pain.

Yun Chu'an led the way, brushing past one snake demon after another as if no one else was there, looking into the depths, and said, "I have already figured out the structure inside the Ten Thousand Snake Cave. I have known the residence of the two Golden Core snakes for a long time, but I am afraid of being exposed in the deepest part of this snake cave, the residence of the Nascent Soul old monster, so I have not been able to find it."

"Gentlemen, this may be our only chance to make a move. Should we play it safe and eliminate his henchmen, or strike at his core?"

Yan Shui glanced around, pondered for a moment, and then said, "We have a large number of people this time. Even if the enemy still has two Golden Core cultivators, they cannot reverse the overall situation."

"So, perhaps..."

She tentatively said, and Sheng Linglong immediately agreed: "After all this trouble, I feel I'd be doing something wrong if I didn't try to maximize the gains. Besides, I think the value of Huang Mang Ancestor's injury is far greater than the disappointment of those two Golden Core cultivators."

Bai Suwan also said, "I agree with what Fellow Daoist Yanshui said. As long as that old snake is dead, even if those two Golden Core Yellow Pythons are still alive, they will not pose any threat."

Since all three said so, Yun Chu'an no longer refused: "Alright, then let's continue deeper into the area..."

Before he could finish speaking, a mocking voice suddenly came from the deepest part of the room: "I'm afraid none of you will be able to kill him today."

The sound boomed and instantly reverberated throughout the entire Serpent Cave. The serpent demons, who had been walking and talking normally, looked at each other in bewilderment, wondering who their ancestor was talking to.

Sheng Linglong and Bai Suwan reacted quickly, immediately realizing what was going on: "The plan has been exposed, retreat!"

Before she finished speaking, Bai Suwan rolled up her water sleeves, wrapped Yun Chuan and the other two, and sped off toward the rear exit.

Sheng Linglong crushed the scroll hidden in her sleeve, and an invisible wave of spiritual energy was emitted, instantly spreading the information to the surrounding area.

The next moment, the enormous snake head of the Yellow Python Ancestor sprang out from the deep pit of the Ten Thousand Snake Cave and rushed straight towards the group!

Outside the Cave of Ten Thousand Serpents, filled with an instinctive worry for the princess, Ge Xiang's eyes were fixed on the distant cave. The moment he sensed a fluctuation of spiritual energy, his expression changed drastically: "Oh no! The princess is in danger! Go to her rescue!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the rock outside the snake cave suddenly cracked open, and Bai Suwan's flowing sleeves enveloped the four of them as they sped out. Behind them, from the dust and smoke, the massive head of the Yellow Python Ancestor slowly emerged, its scarlet eyes filled with hatred as it swept over the crowd.

"Ah."

He gave a mocking laugh, staring at Yan Shuiyi, who had once inflicted heavy damage on him, and Bai Suwan, the former sect leader's daughter, his eyes filled with hatred.

But he did not attack the two of them. When he caught a glimpse of the Wei River Dragon King to the north out of the corner of his eye, his burning greed could no longer be controlled!

I want dragon blood, I want to transform into a dragon!

When my master attains Buddhahood, I will become the chief of the new Ling Mountain and the new Eight Heavenly Dragons under his command!

A mad idea filled his mind, and the enormous serpent demon immediately shot straight into the sky. His body crashed into the rocks beside him, instantly shattering the tens of meters thick rock layer of the mountain. The falling rocks killed countless lesser demons, and the number of dead and injured was countless in an instant.

Thick smoke billowed into the sky, and amidst the smog that blotted out the sun, the enormous body of the Yellow Python Ancestor soared straight into the heavens, its target the distant Wei River Dragon King.

Above the heavens, the Dragon King of the Wei River stood solemnly, but without much worry. Even though the infiltration and surprise attack had failed, it wasn't a major problem. He was absolutely confident he could win the battle, even if it came down to a direct confrontation.
