Dbwg Chapter 166 (2/2)

However, he did not let his mind wonder. Yin Mengyao might have some relationship with Mo Xiaolang, and he wasn’t one to take advantage of his brother’s wife. Besides, he had the great Lingxi beside him.

Long Chen and Yin Mengyao broke into a run, and the rest of the dismal serpent spirits that were not wounded chased them down. Behind them, thousands of poisonous snakes from the Cave of Ten Thousand Serpents followed, and they were like a flood heading towards the two of them. It was quite a spectacular scene.

On the way, whether it was trunks, branches or leaves, snakes were everywhere!

Scarlet tongues glinted coldly in the dark night.

However, Long Chen was in no hurry. Their speed was still faster than those serpent spirits, and in around four hours, Long Chen finally shook them off!

“Hah, hah!”

Long Chen collapsed to the ground, panting pathetically.

It had been a long time since he was this tired.

Loosening his hold on the arm that he had held onto for four hours, Long Chen’s hand had gone numb. As the dismal serpent spirits were too terrifying, he had only been focused on hurrying on.

“Long Chen, I think I’m poisoned.”

Yin Mengyao sat on a branch with her head down.

After running for such a long time, her long hair that had been bundled up had scattered and seemed rather messy. However, she still looked as beautiful and cool as before.

Long Chen’s expression changed and he quickly lifted her head, noticing that she looked ashen. Her eyes looked lost, and her initially red lips had turned pitch-black, to the point that it looked to be about to bleed.

Yin Mengyao raised her left arm, and Long Chen lifted her sleeves. There was now a black mark on her pale arm, and was evidently the place through which the serpent poison had entered.

“How did this happen?” Long Chen’s brows furrowed.

“I don’t know either. This is the arm I used to execute the Obliterating Ocean Seal, and maybe while I was fighting with the dismal serpent spirits, I got injured, which was how the toxins went in…”

“I’ve also heard that some toxic beasts can spurt poison into the air…”

Yin Mengyao had only fought against them for a short period of time, and she’d already been poisoned. While Long Chen had been saving her, he had beaten up pretty much all of the dismal serpent spirits, and yet, he was fine.

Then again, hearing what she had sad, Long Chen recalled some piercing pain at certain parts of his body while fighting, but that had quickly vanished. That was why he had ignored that.

“Could I have been poisoned?”

If that was the case, things were going to be troublesome. Long Chen was shocked, and just when he was about to check his body, Lingxi exclaimed, “Don’t worry. Though you did get hit by the poison of the dismal serpent spirit, you’re fine.”

“How?” Lingxi was very knowledgeable, and Long Chen sighed in relief after hearing her words.

“It should be because of the dragon blood flowing in your body, which had a natural resistance to these toxins. They’ve been completely refined.”

“What about Yin Mengyao?”

“Due to too much consumption of her energy and running quickly, her blood flowed at a faster rate and the poison spread. In a normal situation, the poison wouldn’t result in her current state.”

Just as Long Chen was about to find a way to solve the issue, Yin Mengyao had already produced a healing spirit medicine from his cosmos pouch. Seeing that the toxins were becoming even more intense, she could only hastily use the spirit medicine and save herself.”

“The poison is more potent than that of the Abyssal Poison Scorpion. That spirit medicine won’t work,” Lingxi looked concerned as she spoke.

“What?” Long Chen was bewildered.

“Long Chen, the serpent poison is too potent. By using my real Qi and spirit medicine, I can somewhat suppress it, but I won’t be able to hold on for long.”

Yin Mengyao knew the state of her body.

Her beautiful eyes trembled, expression displaying her sorrow.

“I didn’t think I would trouble you in this inner faction selection. I’m sorry, Long Chen…”

Raising her head, Yin Mengyao took in a deep breath and apologised.

“What are you saying? It’s not like I don’t have any way to save you,” Long Chen consoled her. Just as he was about to ask Lingxi if she had any methods to solve this problem, Lingxi suddenly had a change of expression and spoke anxiously, “Long Chen, run! Jin Sheng’en, Chu Yunxi and the rest are heading over!”

Hearing this, Long Chen’s expression changed as well. He had planned on bringing Yin Mengyao and fleeing, but they were just too fast. In less than a few breaths, they arrived in Long Chen’s line of sight!

Noticing him from the distance, Jin Sheng’en began to chuckle wildly.

“So it’s you, Yin Mengyao and Long Chen! Here I was wondering who could cause such a disturbance amongst the toxic serpents. So it’s you… Looks like the heavens are helping us!”

“Long Chen!” A crazed glint was in Chu Yunxi’s eyes, “This time, n.o.body will be able to protect you. I want your insignificant life!”

Along with their voices, Jin Sheng’en, Chu Yunxi and the two other geniuses of the Gold Faction instantly appeared by Long Chen’s side.

They exchanged a glance and separated into two teams, with one in front and the other, surrounding Long Chen and Yin Mengyao.

“I wonder where you can escape to this time?”

Knowing he would definitely be able to achieve victory over Long Chen, that torrential hatred in his heart was now making Chu Yunxi go insane.

“Brother Chu, just do as you like this time. I’ll help you restrain Yin Mengyao, so just give us a visual feast! Wait, Yin Mengyao’s poisoned?”

Following Jin Sheng’en’s gaze, everyone directed their focus elsewhere. Yin Mengyao now looked dispirited, her lips pitch-black. What else could this be, other than her being poisoned?

Chu Yunxi could completely relax now.

“Long Chen, die…”
