Chapter 299 A Killing Upon First Meeting: The Captured Seventh Princess

"Could it be that a monster disguised itself in your appearance and tricked Seventh Sister away?"

The second princess's words silenced everyone on Calabash Peak, especially the seven lively and energetic gourds, who went from chattering to being completely silent, drifting in the wind.

Zhang Kuang watched the crowd's expressions gradually become serious, yawned boredly, leaned against the rocks with his arms crossed in front of his chest, looking relaxed and carefree.

The trickery of the Seventh Princess was naturally the work of the White Snake and the Green Snake. These two snakes had destroyed the snake demons of this world and obtained two magical artifacts. Just when they were about to show off their skills, the Seventh Princess happened to be alone, so the two snakes naturally chose to attack her.

Dong Yong and his companions were just ordinary people, but although Old Man Qian did not understand magic or supernatural powers, he was exceptionally terrifying. He could fight against the mountain demons with his bare hands, and being an old man, he was far more cunning than the Seventh Princess.

That's why the Twin Snakes chose to target the lone Seventh Princess.

Meanwhile, the Seventh Princess entered the cave. As she ventured deeper into the damp and chilly cave, she encountered no danger. Her initial tension gradually turned into suspicion. After walking for an unknown amount of time, until even the candlelight in her hand flickered in the eerie wind, the Seventh Princess finally stopped and spoke, "Brother Yu Ri, Chunxi, you..."

The sound stopped suddenly!

The Seventh Princess turned around suddenly and realized that there was no one behind her. The light footsteps that had been following her closely since she entered the cave had disappeared.

Thumping! Thumping!
The Seventh Princess's heart clenched, pounding heavily in her chest. Purple fairy light shone from the bracelet, transforming into a gauze robe that protected her. In a flash of her eyes, the Seventh Princess realized that she had probably fallen into a monster's trap.

But the thought of Dong Yong possibly being captured made her grit her teeth and prepare to continue exploring deeper into the cave.

But when I turned around!

A snake's head, its mouth wide open and its tongue flicking, had been waiting in front of her for a long time!
"what!"

The Seventh Princess had never been treated with such close proximity before. She was immediately terrified, her legs went weak, and even her fairy robes swayed. She instinctively swung her sword, and her purple fairy robes flew off her body and landed on the snake's head.

wow-

With a crisp sound, the wide-open snake head shattered into pieces, but on each fragment, a complete snake head grinned, as if mocking the Seventh Princess.

"Mirror?!"

The Seventh Princess was taken aback.

If the snake is a reflection in a mirror, then wouldn't the real monster be behind her?

Before the Seventh Princess could turn her head, two pale white arms reached out from behind, grabbing her arms and forearms. A ruyi scepter was held in the left hand, and the officer chuckled softly, "Ruyi, ruyi, grant my wish, quickly show your power~~"

The Ruyi scepter emitted a mysterious light, instantly dazzling the Seventh Princess's eyes, making her dizzy and disoriented as if she had drunk strong liquor. She then fainted in the White Snake's arms.

Opposite, the shattered mirror pieced itself back together, transforming into a life-size mirror that flew backward, then shrank continuously until it landed in the Green Snake's hand, where she put it into her treasure pouch.

The Green Snake smiled smugly and said, "What Heavenly Princess? She's nothing special to me! Even in a head-on fight, I could capture her!"

The White Snake laughed and said, "If we can outsmart her, why bother fighting her with magic?"

As they chatted and laughed, the White Snake released the Seventh Princess. Her Ruyi scepter transformed into a sword, its beams of light wrapping around the princess like ropes, binding her tightly. Then, she clapped her hands, put away the Ruyi scepter, and said:

"With her here, Master can't say we didn't do anything." The green snake's eyes lit up, and she said, "Sister, do you mean we can go for a stroll in the human world?"

The white snake laughed and said, "I never said I was going to gather intelligence for my master, not to go for a leisurely stroll."

"Yes, yes, me too!"

The two snakes, laughing and joking, dragged the Seventh Princess deep into the cave. They then used their Ruyi to conjure a swamp, placed the Seventh Princess on the crystal stone in the center, set up an array, and then left together.

Meanwhile, the group on Calabash Peak quickly recovered from their shock. After ruling out all other possibilities, the only possibility was that the Seventh Princess had been tricked away by a monster.

"No!" The second princess refused to believe that her seventh sister had been tricked by a monster, and decisively questioned the local earth god, "Are there any great monsters around here?"

The land deity stroked his beard, shook his head, and said, "There are many. Two hundred miles east of the mountains, there is a snake spirit and a scorpion spirit, and two hundred miles west, there is a green snake spirit. These two demons lead many monsters, harming living beings, cruel and ruthless, and full of cunning schemes."

There was also a pangolin demon who cultivated in the mountains year-round. Compared to the other two, it was much better in character, only eating unintelligent snakes, insects, and rodents, and single-mindedly pursuing immortality.

The phrase "cunning and treacherous" already reveals the land's attitude towards the two demons, suggesting that the Seventh Princess was most likely captured by one of them.

"Hmph! Demons dare to become immortals?" The Second Princess shot a cold glint in her eyes and said, "Then it's likely those two snake demons. Let me go to the Heavenly Court and summon some of my sisters to come down and kill them all!"

only……

The second princess glanced at Zhang Kuang, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "The Heavenly Court does not allow outsiders to enter without permission. You wait for me in the mortal realm, okay?"

As he spoke, his expression softened considerably, and his voice became much gentler, giving the impression that "I will take you back even if it means breaking the rules of heaven if you object." This change made Yu Ri and the others pay more attention to Zhang Kuang.

But Zhang Kuang just shook his head and said, "What would I do in Heaven? You go and see what's going on. Whether you can find help or not, you'll still have to come down here again."

After patting his behind, Zhang Kuang waved to the edge of the gourd bee and said to the second princess, whose face was flushed, "I'm going to wander around the mortal world first. We can meet again next time you come to the mortal world."

Before he finished speaking, he had already reached the edge of the cliff.

"Hey! Watch out!"

"That's a cliff!"

"return!"

Just as Dong Yong, Yu Ri, and Old Man Qian called out to warn him, they saw Zhang Kuang stepping on the cloud as if it were flat ground. Instead, the clouds below suddenly parted, spreading out in a shape like footprints, one after another following Zhang Kuang as he walked into the distance.

Everyone stared in disbelief, only then realizing that Zhang Kuang was actually a highly accomplished master.

Seeing Zhang Kuang leave in a haughty manner, the Second Princess, who had been spanked, did not hesitate to fly away from Calabash Peak. Unlike the Seventh Sister, she did not like mortals, especially since these mortals had seen her "dark history," so naturally they would not stay any longer.

As soon as the second princess and Zhang Kuang left, the gourds on the gourd vine swayed, and the red gourd at the very front fell to the ground with a thud...
