"Cough, cough, cough, Yuchuan, what Master Chang Hao is saying is, who do you think you are? How dare you make such demands of the Lady of the Snake Lord! It's outrageously bold!!"

Liu Xianzhi coughed in succession, seemingly chastising but actually giving his disciple Qiu Yuchuan a way to step down with grace, "Haven't you descended the mountain quickly? The Madam has agreed to help you investigate, what more do you want?"

Qiu Yuchuan wanted to argue something.

But upon receiving a meaningful glance from Liu Xianzhi, which nearly made his eyelids twitch, he no longer insisted on my descent from the mountain, "Then… can the Snake Sect give me a deadline?"

However, I was calculating in the depths of my heart. I had always been thinking that someone was trying to harm me and the Snake Sect in secret with evil energy.

But at this moment, I suddenly realized that this method was too superficial.

To truly harm me was almost impossible.

Could it be that they wanted to trick me into leaving the Snake Sect so they could strike at me from the outside!!

"Within three days, the Snake Sect shall give you a satisfactory response," Chang Hao said with a clear and icy gaze, compromising coldly.

After thinking for a while, Yuchuan weighed the pros and cons and still felt it was inappropriate, "Three days… That's too long, this is a matter of life and death."

"Hey, kid, you only dare to be so aggressive at our Snake Sect because we're too lenient with you, which has spoiled you into not knowing your own weight."

This roguish and punchable voice could only belong to Yu Rongling.

His Snake Scales ailment was cured, and without the torment of illness, his howls now turned into a return of his bully-like strength, swaggering through the sect.

Yu Rongling's elder brother Yu Longting, with his tall and firm stature, stepped in coolly on long legs.

The entire desolate and sinister room suddenly felt oppressive.

Though he was just over one meter eighty in height, he gave off the feeling of a ten-meter high wall, looming over everyone present.

Yuchuan was stunned into silence for a few seconds.

After glancing at the majestic and unapproachable Yu Longting, he immediately lowered his head, not daring to look anymore, "The Snake Sect is the orthodox branch of Jie Sect, under the leadership of the Snake Lord, it has always embraced all rivers and protected all beings. It's for this reason that we need to rely on the Snake Sect, so I humbly ask… for the Snake Lord's mercy."

Tsk tsk~ such flattery, even I am no match for it.

The young brother has potential, with good looks and a mouth full of righteousness and morality that he praises oh so well.

I'm Yu Longting, and I would feel embarrassed to refuse this~

Admiring him in my heart and somewhat surprised, I approached Yu Longting, "Didn't you say you didn't want anyone to disturb you? Why did you come here?"

"I told them not to bother me about anything other than your matters. Chang Hao is way too bold, letting you handle negotiations with the Snake Sect and planning to keep it from me." Yu Longting glanced sideways at Yuchuan and Chang Hao while he spoke, his gaze now deeply focused on me, "Luckily, I came. Otherwise, someone might have tricked you into going down the mountain."

"Did you come over after hearing that I… had been summoned to meet a guest?" I've been cherished by Yu Longting's care so many times that it was almost like being held in the palm of his hand.

But the fact that he came here especially for me meant a great deal to me.

Yu Longting coiled a strand of my hair around his finger, "Do you want to go down the mountain? If you want to, I'll accompany you; if not, I'll send him away."

Yuchuan stood there with a full head of black lines, as from the moment Yu Longting entered, his eyes had only me and he hadn't paid him any attention at all.

Whether or not to descend the mountain to help was entirely up to me.

He probably felt like cursing Yu Longting on the spot as a lecherous emperor lost in the pleasures of the flesh...

"Yu Longting, wait a moment, will you?" I turned towards Chang Hao, Yuchuan, and Liu Xianzhi, speaking warmly, "I apologize to the three of you, I have some thoughts that I'd like to discuss with the Snake Lord privately."

Seeing my politeness, all three showed a somewhat astonished expression.

They paused, then each expressed that they didn't mind.

Yu Longting led me to the inner hall behind us, "Wanwan, come with me."

The thick-skinned Yu Er squeezed his way in with his big head, "I'm not an outsider, let me listen in on what whispers you two have~"

"When you have a wife someday, I'll also eavesdrop on your intimate conversations and see if you can tolerate it."

I rolled my eyes at Yu Er and looked to Yu Longting,
