53 Bargain for their lives (1/2)

They can feel the snake forces itself in to their mouth then their throat going down to the stomach. Its small scaled body is now comfortably laying around, inside their bodies.

Is it drinking their blood? What if it got hungry and ate their internal organs?

Wanting to choke but afraid that the snake suddenly became hostile and decided to take a bite inside. Their faces show the struggle of accepting their current situation.

”None of you will die. I still have some uses for you.” Gao Lan Mei does not want blood spilled on her courtyard. Lying to her mortal parents is not comfortable for her as well.

With an annoyed tone, ”Liqi clan cannot be trusted, think carefully before you kick these beings out.”

He is not agreeing to this. ”We can use other means to get what we need.” Yen Mìngjue have one of his snake pawns to come closer to Gao Lan Mei.

He understands Gao Lan Mei's intention. They need to acquire power, but the Liqi clan cannot be trusted especially the Old Yin Patriarch.

That man is alive for so long, he even knows the story why the clan was created hundreds of years ago.

With a sly glint in her eyes, ”I am just being merciful. Let them bargain for there lives.” She wants to know how far her luck will go.

Staring at the paled face intruders, ”You can leave now. We will meet again soon. The snake will tell you when and where,” saying with disinterested tone.

She gave them pills to stop the poison from spreading at most for a week. That also means she has this time to prepare.

With a gulp, ”Understood.” Yin Bai said. They are still alive, that's all that matters. With difficulty, the three left the courtyard.

”You're not afraid that reinforcement will arrive from the clan?” Yen Mingjue is more concern about the main force of the Liqi Clan to retaliate.
