Chu Xin swatted away Long Yufei's hand, huffing and puffing, "I'm serious, you guys can't laugh. Auntie, if you dare to hit on my daddy, I will spank you, spank you so hard your butt blooms."
She had a serious face with a hint of a childish lisp, threateningly waving her little fists with fierce cuteness.
"Yeah! I will beat you up too."
It was only then that Chu Chen realized what was happening; he waved his chubby little hands and with a gaping smile, tried his best to look fierce.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard the two cute kids tried to look ferocious, with one exquisitely adorable and the other exceedingly cute, they just looked endearingly silly, without any deterrent power.
"All right, all right, I understand, I won't make a move on your daddy."
Long Yufei cheerfully agreed, reaching out to ruffle the heads of the two cute children, growing even fonder of them.
So young yet they already know how to protect their mom, their mother must be really happy.
A vision of her sister flashed in her mind, and she sighed internally,
"I wonder how my sister's two children are doing now, sigh!"
"Finally caught up to you."
Just at that moment, a chilly voice suddenly rang out.
Everyone turned their heads to see an old man with green hair standing atop a giant green snake with a triangular head, rapidly approaching.
"That old beast is here."
The old woman's eyes flashed with Sword Intent, but she quickly clutched at her chest, her expression one of unbearable pain.
"Master (Pavilion Master)."
Long Yufei and a group of female guards were shocked. The poison had clearly been cured, so why was this happening so suddenly?
Chu Xin looked at the old woman and then at the fast-approaching green-haired old man, blinked her large eyes as if she understood something, rushed to the old woman's side, and started crying loudly, "Boo hoo, grandma, don't die, there are bad people coming, what will we do if you die?"
Chu Chen was a beat slower in reacting, but his performance was more exaggerated than Chu Xin's; he appeared in front of the old woman, rolling and crawling like a meatball, bawling his eyes out.
Seeing the two cute kids crying so desperately, the female guards thought something had happened to the old woman and were incredibly anxious.
But Long Yufei seemed to realize something and shouted, "Get in formation, we're going to fight him!"
Upon hearing this, the female guards, filled with hatred, stepped forward to guard the old woman. They pinched their Sword techniques, and long swords flew out from within them, forming a sword formation, determined to block the green-haired old man.
"Old Sword Slave, it looks like the poison has reached your lungs, you're not far from death," the green-haired old man sneered. With a palm strike through the air, a massive green Hand Seal took shape.
"Disperse the formation!"
Long Yufei suddenly cried out; the female guards hesitated for a moment, but still dismantled the sword formation.
Right at that moment, a streak of sword light shot through the sky.
The green-haired old man was startled; the green Hand Seal had just been formed and couldn't be exchanged for a more powerful Martial Arts technique, so he had no choice but to resolutely slam down the green Hand Seal. He then quickly made a Hand Formation, trying to cast a stronger Martial Arts technique.
The sword light pierced through the green Hand Seal, its momentum unabated, and in an instant appeared before the green-haired old man.
At this moment, the old man wasn't ready with his new technique, and in a hurry, he summoned the defensive green armor within his body. He hadn't even had the chance to mobilize his True Qi to fully activate the armor's defensive capabilities.
Splat!
The sword light broke through the armor, piercing the green-haired old man's shoulder, causing green blood to gush out.
"Damn it! Your poison is gone?"
The green-haired old man sprang back, looking at the wound on his shoulder, his face darkening as he stared at the old woman slowly rising from the Flying Boat, infuriated and shocked.
"Haha, you tricked me once last time; this time I return the favor. Now we're even," the old woman laughed heartily, thoroughly enjoying herself.
"Impossible, my snake venom can only be cured by a Pill Saint in person, otherwise, it absolutely cannot be cured."
The green-haired elder's face was full of disbelief, "No, even if a Pill Saint came in person, to analyze the poison in my snake venom and then concoct an appropriate Detoxification Pill, it wouldn't be possible to do it so quickly."
Hearing the green-haired elder's words, the old woman and Long Yufei and the others realized that they had underestimated those two cute kids' Detoxification Pills as well as their daddy's alchemy abilities.
The old woman said coldly, "Nothing is impossible, you old beast, today is the day you die."
After speaking, she moved her hands in Sword Technique, and thousands of Sword Qi rose into the air behind her. Then, with a wave of her Sword Point, the Sword Qi shot towards the green-haired elder like rain.
"You've only caused me a little injury, you must have forgotten, a Beast Tamer's strength depends on their Pet Beast. You shouldn't have ambushed me, you should have ambushed my Pet Beast."
The green-haired elder snorted coldly as the giant green snake at his feet coiled around him protectively, instantly shielding his entire body.
"Giant Snake Guard!"
The green-haired elder shouted loudly, and the green True Qi inside his body surged into the snake, and soon a layer of verdant light screen emerged on the snake's body.
All Sword Qi tinkled against the light screen but couldn't break it.
Just as Long Yufei and the others watched the battle between the two Martial Saints nervously, in a corner of the Flying Boat, Chu Xin and her brother Chu Chen were whispering to each other.
"Brother, that green giant snake looks delicious, I've never eaten snake before." Chu Xin stuck out her little tongue and licked her lips; she was getting hungry again.
"Sister, I've never grilled a snake before either. Daddy never brought one home."
Chu Chen's big eyes also sparkled, clearly very interested in the idea of grilling a snake.
"But that snake's body is full of disgusting, greasy poison. I don't want to dirty my hands."
Chu Xin muttered under her breath while taking out a stack of Talismans from the Sumeru Ring, "To deal with a poisonous snake, Thunder and Flame should be the most effective, right?"
"No, no, no!"
Chu Chen shook his head vigorously, his chubby cheeks wobbling, "Thunder and Flame will char the meat, and it won't taste good."
"That's true."
Upon hearing this, Chu Xin quickly put away the stack of Thunder Talismans and Flame Talismans, then took out another stack of Talismans and said, "What about Ice Sealing Talismans?"
"No, no, no!"
Chu Chen shook his head again, "After freezing, the meat won't taste good."
"Right."
Chu Xin once again put away the Ice Sealing Talismans, her little brow furrowed in thought for a moment before she took out another stack of Talismans and said, "Divine Talisman, this should do the trick, right?"
"That'll work, even if it smashes the soul, it won't affect the quality of the meat."
Chu Chen's eyes instantly lit up, nodding vigorously, and he searched through the Sumeru Ring, quickly taking out a stack of Divine Talismans and said, "Sister, I am ready."
"We'll circle around behind him."
Chu Xin waved her little hand and the two cute kids turned into two streaks of light, vanishing in an instant.
"Hm? What are those two little ones up to?"
The elder woman, who was maintaining her persistent attack with Sword Qi on the green-haired elder, naturally noticed the two kids suddenly appearing behind the elder. A trace of confusion appeared in her eyes, but her expression didn't change at all, nor did she allow the elder to detect any flaw.
"Smash it!"
Just then, Chu Xin's milky voice rang out.
"Roger!"
Chu Chen's babyish voice responded, and then the two cute kids were seen waving their little hands, crazily throwing Talismans at the green snake as if they were free.
