Reborn as a Snake: Forging a Demon Court Starting from a Black Python

Bai Suzhen lowered her head and remained silent for a long time, gradually sorting out her thoughts.

"Xuan'er is right. That bald monk Fahai is definitely not a good person. In order to subdue demons, he doesn't even care about the lives of innocent mortals, so how could he care about his husband?"

"It's because I've been with my husband during this time, and Fahai's injuries haven't fully healed, that he hasn't made a move."

"If my husband falls into Fahai's hands, I'll be afraid to act rashly and end up being captured by him. That would be one thing, but what if it implicates Xiaoqing and Xuan'er..."

Bai Suzhen raised her head, stared at Lin Xuan, and said seriously:

"Xuan'er, do you really have a way to control the tide and make it flow only towards Jinshan Temple?"

Lin Xuan knew that Bai Suzhen had fallen for him, and his huge mouth split open, revealing a big smile.

However, his current dragon-like appearance, when he smiled, only made people feel terrified.

Lin Xuan said, "Sister, don't worry. I know what's important. The Heavenly Court is powerful. If we rashly cause endless bloodshed, those gods will definitely not let us off the hook."

"I can't say that innocent people won't be harmed at all, but there definitely won't be too many deaths."

Lin Xuan spoke very sincerely, and he was indeed not lying to Bai Suzhen.

When the game "Myth" was first released, some brilliant minds devised a method for mutually farming merit points.

First, let one player do evil, then let another player kill him to gain merit.

Honest mutual account boosting, come join us if you have a new account.

However, this vulnerability was quickly patched later.

If a major flood were to occur, causing every household in Hangzhou to be in mourning, Lin Xuan and Bai Suzhen would immediately become walking benefactors.

Even those immortals who are not usually willing to actively capture demons will definitely be tempted and can't help but take action.

Bai Suzhen saw Lin Xuan's sincerity and took a deep breath:

"Okay, I agree!"

"When the high tide comes, we'll act together. I'll raise the tide, and you can use your water control abilities to flood Jinshan Temple, leaving that bald monk homeless!"

Bai Suzhen had just finished speaking.

[Ding! Bai Suzhen has issued you a mission: Flood Jinshan Temple!]

As a Blackwater Poisonous Dragon, you possess the ability to control water. Bai Suzhen invites you to join forces with her to launch a boundless tide to attack Jinshan Temple.

[Warning! Accepting this task may result in significant losses. Please proceed with caution!]

If it were someone else, they might hesitate, but Lin Xuan didn't even think about it.

[Task accepted successfully!]

Lin Xuan was overjoyed and said to Bai Suzhen, "Sister, I'm glad you agreed. I'll go and make preparations right away."

After saying that, Lin Xuan turned around and plunged into the water, creating a large splash.

However, these waves, having only traveled halfway, suddenly seemed to be guided by something and slowly fell back to the surface of the water without making a sound.

Seeing this, Bai Suzhen nodded in agreement. Xuan'er really hadn't lied to her; he did indeed have a way to control water.

This would greatly increase our chances of dealing with Jinshan Temple.

She stood by the river for a while, gazing at the Qiantang River. Her mood gradually calmed down, and she decided to leave.

But before they could even set off, Xiaoqing came over and hesitated, saying:

"Sister, are you really going to listen to that black snake?"

Bai Suzhen had made up her mind, but Xiaoqing still had many concerns.

Although they originally intended to deal with Jinshan Temple when they came to Hangzhou, they never thought they would cause such a big commotion.

Xiaoqing hesitated for a moment, then continued:

"Sister, think about it carefully. If we just leave with your brother-in-law, Fahai might not necessarily pursue us relentlessly."

"Besides, even if he still doesn't give up, if we stay far away, or even return to the Snake Clan, would Fahai dare to chase after us all the way?"

"I don't think we necessarily have to..."

Before Xiaoqing could finish speaking, Bai Suzhen interrupted:

"Alright, Xiaoqing, you don't need to say anything more. Now that I've made a promise with Xuan'er, how can I turn back halfway?"

At this moment, Bai Suzhen was surprisingly tough, displaying the powerful aura of a thousand-year-old snake demon.

Xiaoqing stared at Bai Suzhen, feeling as if she didn't even recognize this older sister anymore.

Noticing Xiaoqing's surprise, Bai Suzhen's expression softened. She walked to Xiaoqing's side, took her hand, and said:

"Don't overthink it, little sister. I wasn't angry with you."

"What you said makes some sense, but it only addresses the symptoms, not the root cause. Who dares to say that Fahai wouldn't dare go to the snake clan?"

"Even if he doesn't dare now, he'll still come looking for trouble with me and your brother-in-law when his magical power improves."

"Besides..."

"Besides what?" Xiaoqing sensed that Bai Suzhen was still unsatisfied and hurriedly asked.

Bai Suzhen sighed and said, "Besides, I have also tested your brother-in-law these past few days and found that he is probably just an ordinary mortal and it is unlikely that he has any cultivation."

"In that case, his lifespan will only be a few decades. Even if I find him some cultivation techniques, he may not be able to master them."

"But if we break into Jinshan Temple and seize the dragon energy, so that your brother-in-law can absorb a portion of it, that would be even better."

Xiaoqing's eyes showed a mixture of helplessness and emotion after hearing this.

She lowered her head, hesitated for a few breaths, and then suddenly said:

"Sister, it's not necessary to fixate on the dragon energy of Jinshan Temple. I remember you know the location of the Ancient Kunlun Immortal Herb Garden, don't you?"

"Why don't you go to the Immortal Herb Garden and pick a few elixirs that can prolong the lives of mortals? Wouldn't that solve the problem?"

Bai Suzhen shook her head inwardly. Things were not that simple.

The Immortal Herb Garden is a private reserve of immortals. If one has no other choice but to rely on the immortal herbs there to save their life, then going there once is enough.

But at other times, the risks were not much less than attacking Jinshan Temple.

It might even alarm the gods in heaven, trapping them in the ancient Kunlun Mountains, which would be even more dangerous.

However, out of consideration for Xiaoqing, she nodded and said:

"Xiaoqing, what you said makes some sense. No wonder Xuan'er said you were smart earlier. I'll set off now and take advantage of the next few days before the high tide arrives to go and have a look over there."

"If I have the chance to pick the medicinal herbs, I will gather a few."

"You need to protect your brother-in-law these next few days and make sure nothing happens to him, understand?"

Xiaoqing was overjoyed and clapped her hands, saying:

"Sister, don't worry, with me here, I guarantee your husband will be fine."

"Even if Fahai attacks directly, I can retreat with my brother-in-law without letting him get hurt in the slightest."

After giving Xiaoqing a few instructions, Bai Suzhen actually transformed back into her original form and deliberately avoided entering the water, instead gliding along the ground at high speed.

It was moving at an extremely high speed, attracting the attention of many pedestrians.

But no matter how these mortals searched, they couldn't find any trace of Bai Suzhen, and they were all scratching their heads.

"This is really weird, where did that rustling noise come from?"

After watching Bai Suzhen leave, Xiaoqing returned to the Lin residence with a smile, where she ran into Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan asked with a hint of anxiety on his face:

"Little Qing, where is your sister? I've been looking for her all over the manor, but I can't find her."

Xiaoqing waved dismissively.

"Brother-in-law, don't worry. My sister just received an urgent letter saying that something happened at home and she has to go back to visit relatives. She'll be back in a few days."

This was just an excuse Xiaoqing came up with on the spot, thinking it would fool Lin Xuan, but Lin Xuan actually became serious.

"My wife has something going on at home? How can I stand idly by!"

"Lead the way for me now, I'll go back with you and take a look."
