"You!" Jing Yanxi glared at her sister with growing anger, but at this time she couldn't add any more trouble. Jing Yanxi cursed inwardly. "Damn! This child really makes me angry. But he will definitely complain about this to father!"

"Huh! Do you think I will be afraid of your threat?" Jing Yunxi pouted her mouth at Jing Yanxi. Then, the girl turned to look at Hua Fei.

"Brother Fei! Is Brother Fei okay?" Jing Yunxi squatted down and helped Hua Fei to get up. The little girl's eyes looked very worried when she saw that the condition of the boy she secretly admired didn't look very good.

"I'm fine. Don't worry!" Hua Fei replied while wiping the blood on the corner of his lips with the corner of his dirty sleeve. Even though the pretty handsome boy's entire body felt sore and bruised, he chose to move his body away from the beautiful-looking little girl from the Jing Family.

“Young Master Hua, let me help you walk!” A female bodyguard offered to help. However, of course Hua Fei would reject it by shaking his head.

"I can do it myself!" Hua Fei gently pushed away the bodyguard's hand as she tried to get up. For a few moments, he managed to stand up and walk over to take Jing Ling's basket containing snakes. However, his state of being too weak made him unsteady again.

"Brother Fei, be careful!"

However, the situation is not very good. Hua Fei's body could no longer endure the continuous pain caused by the torture from Jing Yanxi's men, which was quite brutal. Suddenly, this boy staggered and immediately fell to the ground.

"Young Master Hua Fei!" One of the female bodyguards quickly approached the long-haired boy with a sweet and gentle face.

"Brother Fei!" Jing Yunxi screamed spontaneously when she saw Hua Fei's body fall again.

The bamboo basket he was carrying also rolled over until the cover opened. No wonder, dozens of black and red striped snakes scattered out of the bamboo basket. However, strangely, the movements of dozens of reptiles are not as agile as snakes in general. They were so slow, as if they were reluctant to leave the place where they were scattered.

"Mm--my snake!" Hua Fei tried to move to grab some of the black and red striped snakes that he might still be able to catch back. He spoke in his heart. "Aiyaaa! Little Brother Ling's snakes are all loose! He'll definitely be very disappointed later!"

"Snakes? Turns out the basket contains snakes!" One of the female bodyguards jumped in surprise and looked frightened. "There are so many of them!"

"Aaaaah! Ss-snake!" Jing Yunxi screamed hysterically, as several snakes slithered as if they were going to approach her. "Brother Feeeei, I'm scared!"

The guards looked panicked by the snakes scattering from the bamboo baskets. However, they still thought about the safety of their lady. "Little Miss, be careful and get out of the way!"

Jing Yunxi could only stand frozen in place with her face as pale as cotton, she even lifted one of her legs to look at a small snake moving nearby. "Aaaaahh! Help!"

"Little Miss, calm down! We will kill them all!"

Hua Fei whispered in a barely audible voice. "Please don't kill them! I have to bring them alive to our teacher!"

It seemed that the six female bodyguards did not hear Hua Fei's words at all, who were drowned out by the noise and screams of the people who were busy killing the black and red striped snakes that she and Jing Ling had worked so hard to achieve.

"Get rid of the snakes before they attack us!" shouted the sadistic looking guard.

Several female bodyguards immediately drew their swords to slash the bodies of the snakes with this very deadly poison. Hua Fei immediately stopped their actions, the boy said in a low and almost inaudible voice.

"Please don't kill them! Little Brother Ling took great pains to catch them all!"

"But these are very dangerous snakes!" shouted one of the female guards as she continued to slash her short sword at the snakes who were trying to escape. "They could kill us all!"

“Little Miss, move away quickly!” shouted one of the women who was busy dealing with Jing Ling's snakes until there were none left. Jing Yunxi quickly ran and hid behind one of her bodyguards.

"Please! Please! Don't kill them!" Hua Fei, who was helpless, could only watch with sadness at the corpses of the black and red striped snakes that could no longer be saved.

"You have killed them all!" How devastated Hua Fei felt at the killing of the snakes he and Jing Ling had caught.

"You don't know how important those animals are to us!" Hua Fei shed tears, because he also hunted them from early in the morning until noon. The two boys had to enter the dense forest and follow the river from the end of the valley to the top of the hill just to hunt this dangerous animal.

"Young Master Hua, if we don't kill those dangerous beasts, then we will be the ones they attack." Jing Yunxi's personal bodyguard said as she put away the snake corpses.

"Did you see them attacking you? They can't even move like before we caught them. Because we have paralyzed them." Hua Fei spoke while moving slowly to collect the corpses of the snakes. "Even though they are dead, I still have to take them all!"

Jing Yunxi's bodyguards looked at each other guiltily. Now they all realized that the beast meant a lot to the two young masters of the Cloud Valley Sect.

"Even though a dead snake might not be included in the assessment, I hope Jiang Lao is willing to give us another chance," Hua Fei said softly with teary eyes.

"How is this? Will we not be able to pass to the next stage?"

The rice has become porridge, regretting what has happened is also useless. Even though it felt very unlucky, Hua Fei tried hard to calm herself down. "What can I do? It's all happened."

Latest Chapter

  • 82. The Determination for Revenge

    Jing Ling quickly turned his head, raising his eyebrows as he looked at Hua Lin. “Little Uncle, that was in the past. I’m not like that anymore. Why do you always bring it up? I’m the wisest and softest-hearted person, as gentle as silk.” “That may be true when you’re in front of your parents, but not when you’re alone or with us. Isn’t that right, Ah Fei?” Hua Lin retorted, unwilling to lose the exchange. Hua Fei, who had been sitting quietly in the corner of the carriage, finally gave a faint smile. In a calm yet authoritative tone, he said, “You two are just the same.” Hua Yan let out a long sigh, his gaze calm, though a hint of concern flickered in the sharp glint of his eyes. Finally, Hua Yan spoke, “Enough. I just hope that you all truly look after one another. The outside world is a place full of mysteries and dangers that we can never predict. If something happens... remember, family bonds are your greatest strength.” “Yes, Father,” Jing Ling responded. “Understood, Brot

  • 81. The Journey Begins!

    "Hey, Ah Ling. We also have to take our leave." Hua Lin spoke as he stepped forward, bumping into Jing Ling’s arm that was blocking the way."You guys!" Jing Ling put his hands on his hips, then waved them dismissively. "Fine. Go, go, go!"Jing Yue turned her head slowly, her breath catching when the two young men stood before her.Their eyes held a quiet sadness, revealing emotions they could not hide.Even though she tried so hard to hold back her tears, her swollen eyes could not conceal her deep sorrow.Two dried tear streaks marked her cheeks. She offered a faint smile as Hua Fei and Hua Lin approached, both preparing to say their farewells. They were not just disciples to Jing Yue; these two young men had already become part of her soul and heart.Now, they would leave this home for the Sacred Pillar Sect, a place filled with mysteries and perhaps dangers lurking along the path they would take to reach it.Hua Fei chose to step forward first. With full confidence, though his eye

  • 80. Saying Goodbye

    Hua Yan still stood firmly in front of the main pavilion of the Cloud Valley Sect. His gaze was sharp as he stared at the line of supply carriages, not less than ten wagon carts. He wondered whether this was supposed to be a training journey or a sightseeing trip.These elders were truly excessive!In front of him, rows of men in full uniform stood with discipline. Each of them carried gleaming weapons and the sect’s grand banners, while four luxurious horse carriages decorated with dragon and phoenix carvings were already prepared to escort his departure.“Does it really have to be like this?” Hua Yan muttered, half complaining while rubbing his forehead.Elder Hua Ming, who stood not far from him, stepped forward. “Great Leader, all of this has been arranged meticulously. The dignity of the sect must be upheld, especially when you depart on such an important mission.”However, Hua Yan waved his hand. “Once again, I and those children are not going to a battlefield, Elder Hua Ming. O

  • 79. Is Jing Ling Boasting?

    Jing Ling closed his eyes as he felt a flash of cold energy enter his forehead. That energy initially felt cold, but then it became warm."This is called the Divine Eye. With this sight, you can see various things that you were previously unable to see." Ancestor Jing Shuang said after pulling back his finger from Jing Ling’s forehead. "You only need to focus your vision and your mind when you see something you consider unusual. And you will immediately discover secrets that ordinary people cannot see.""Divine Eye?" Jing Ling opened his eyes and felt his vision become increasingly radiant."The sight of the Divine Eye is a high-level technique learned from the Divine Eye Scripture of the Yu Family, which I found two hundred years ago inside the coffin of an unrecognized heir named Qing Yuan." There was sadness in Ancestor Jing Shuang’s tone when he mentioned this mysterious name.Jing Ling thought, ‘Two hundred years ago ... isn’t that a very long time ago?’"Qing Yuan?" Jing Ling mu

  • 78. The Chosen One

    "Do not be afraid. I am Jing Shuang, the one who created this ring."Jing Ling panicked slightly, feeling as if his hearing was not functioning normally at the moment. His gaze remained fixed on the human-shaped silhouette trapped within the cluster of faint red light.“It has been a very long time since I became trapped in this place, waiting for someone among my successors to come and find me.” That refined and gentle voice echoed again with clarity.Jing Ling was shocked. It turned out that the human-shaped light could speak? And he claimed to be named Jing Shuang?Wait! Wasn’t that the name mentioned by Jing Yue, his mother?“Jing Shuang?” Jing Ling was utterly astonished. “So, you are Jing Shuang, the creator and owner of this All-Space Ring?”“That is correct. That is me.” Ancestor Jing Shuang turned gracefully, his robe billowing, and the red light enveloping him faded instantly.Now, the true form of a young man—exceptionally handsome like a celestial emperor, could be seen cl

  • 77. An Heir?

    "How could that possibly be a broken item? Try it once more, Ah Lin!" Hua Lin tried to encourage his nephew. "Keep your spirit up!""Alright. I will try it once more." Jing Ling nodded, then focused his mind again in an attempt to connect with his All-Space Ring.However, nothing still happened even though he had tried repeatedly.Jing Ling took a breath in disappointment. "It still doesn’t work.""Strange… why does it still not work?" Hua Fei also did not understand.Jing Ling could no longer hide both his disappointment and his curiosity.He turned again toward his mother. "Mother, I can’t use this ring. Even though I try hard to unite my mind with it, I still can’t feel anything. I’m starting to think that this item is not destined for me, or perhaps it truly is already broken.""It is not broken. But your ring is slightly different from the spatial items that Ah Fei and Ah Lin have." Jing Yue understood her son’s difficulty. "Mother will explain a little about that item.""Ah Ling
