Chapter 192: Human-faced snake (2/2)

Na Shan coldly continued: “As I see it, perhaps, that brat is striving for merit. In order to obtain even more treasures, he has gone crazy!”

Clearly, it was Liu Hong who was unable to control herself and was impatient to find even more treasures. But Na Shan of Five Style Sect however placed that big hat on Ye Chuan. [T/N: big hat: unwarranted charge]

“Enough, don’t speak, prepare to work, get into your position.”

Liu Hong stood up. Although her graceful and lithe figure was still alluring, her face was somewhat gloomy and cold.

………

Outside the tent, under the dim light of night, behind a stone, Ye Chuan had a cold complexion, and looking at Liu Hong and others coming out of the tent in succession, he coldly smiled and left.

The exchange of Na Shan and Na Shui confirmed that it had nothing to do with them for him to move out by himself especially at night, but this however was something he had been looking forward the entire day.

When the team hunted golems and found some treasures, all the good things would go to Liu Hong without exception, so he might as well go out and work by himself. Tonight was his opportunity!

Ye Chuan jumped down and landed on a small path, then under the hazy moonlight, he dashed ahead, walking as if on wings. Compared to daytime, he was several times faster and he didn’t fear the hidden danger of darkness.

During daytime, when he was together with Liu Hong and others, Ye Chuan had misgivings, and unless it was a critical moment, he didn’t easily make a move. But now, when he was taking action by himself, it was different. Even though his cultivation level wasn’t high and was the worst among all the members of the team, but with four Heaven Swallowing Talismans within his body, he had a great confidence.

After nightfall, the grey mist in the air seemed to be even denser. The entire Myriad Beast Forest was silent, and the more you look, the more it resembled a huge tomb piled up with stones.

Ye Chuan’s speed was very fast, dashing ahead on the narrow winding trail. And after a little while, Liu Hong and others were left far behind. But just when he guessed that he had already reached the mark of 10 li, he stopped his steps sensing something.

In the front, there was an unassuming stone at the slanted roadside. Suddenly, with a ‘kacha kacha’ sounds, cracks appeared on that stone. And after bigger and bigger cracks appeared on it, it finally exploded.

What is this?

A python completely made up of stone with a human face and snake body?

The pupils of Ye Chuan shrunk and all the fine hairs all over his body stood erect.

After entering Myriad Beast Forest, although they were repeatedly in danger, they had only encountered beast-headed humanoid golems. This was the first time he encountered such golem with a human face and beast body. Moreover, just looking at it could cause him feel uncomfortable, and his scalp was also tingling.

The space between the eyebrows of Ye Chuan suddenly twitched violently, and the Cyan Lotus Lamp within his body also began to become hot. This was the sign that it had sensed a worldly treasure.

With one look, one would know that this human-faced snake-body golem was not a good thing, and it was very hard to deal with, but he was sure that a treasure must be sealed inside it. And that treasure must be incomparable even if all the treasures of Liu Hong was added together!

Instantly, Ye Chuan made up his mind, he didn’t turn around to lead this human-faced snake to the place where Liu Hong and others were waiting for an ambush. On the contrary, step by step, he went forward to face it head-on.

Hiss!

The human-faced snake held its head high and hissed as its long tail assumed a posture of wanting to attack.

Ye Chuan continued to walk forward and with the blades between his fingers glimmering with pallid light, he wielded the nine blades. While circulating four Heaven Swallowing Talismans within his body, he silently used Inch Blade Technique.

After breaking through to Rank 3 Xiushi and condensing the fourth Heaven Swallowing Talisman, Ye Chuan still had yet to find an expert to truly test all his strength. This human-faced snake in front of him was extremely dangerous, but the more dangerous it was, the more he wanted to fight it. He wanted to see whether the poison fang of this snake was powerful or was his blade faster!

This human-faced snake hissed again, and clouds of dust suddenly flew up in this narrow winding trail, moreover, innumerable bits of stones whistled towards Ye Chuan.

The human-faced snake took the initiative to attack. Unlike all the golems he had encountered before, not only was its entire body a stone lump that was practically invulnerable, it also had powerful techniques. Now, with stone bits and dust filling the entire sky, he couldn’t see from where it would attack!
