I, the villainous eldest prince, will suppress everything!

Looking at the "Blood Eye Technique" that Qin Li had given him, Old Snake couldn't help but frown.

Well, how should I put it?

From his perspective as a master, this book, "Blood Eye Technique," was mediocre and even somewhat useless.

Because its attack power is very weak, almost negligible.

It has some merit in temporarily confusing and manipulating other people's minds, but otherwise it is utterly useless.

When encountering a powerful expert, one is powerless to fight back and is easily attacked by the backlash, even going berserk.

But then I thought about it again. Qin Li is the eldest prince, surrounded by countless experts. He doesn't need to practice any powerful martial arts; others will take care of him.

"Very well, since Li'er has chosen this book, then let her practice it boldly. If there's anything she doesn't understand, feel free to ask your teacher."

After saying this, the old snake returned the manual to Qin Li, who patted off the dust and solemnly put it into his pocket.

After chatting for a few more minutes, Qin Li prepared to leave.

"Wait a moment."

But the old snake called out to him.

Qin Li stopped and asked, "Teacher, is there anything else?"

"After much thought, I still worry about you. There will be times when I am not by your side, and there will also be times when the experts in the manor are not there to protect you. You must have the ability to protect yourself."

As they were talking, the old snake bit the tip of its tongue and hissed.

"call out!"

A streak of red lightning shot out from somewhere in the library, its body coiling and twisting around the old snake's withered arm, flicking its bright red forked tongue at him.

Qin Li rubbed his eyes before he could see clearly that it was a small red snake, about the thickness of his little finger, with a small head, big eyes, and an extremely cute appearance.

The old snake lowered its head and whispered a few words to the little snake, as if it were giving instructions. The little snake looked reluctant to part and rubbed its head against the old snake's hand.

"This red-banded spirit snake is a spirit pet that I have carefully raised for many years. It has become intelligent and human-like. Although it looks harmless, it is extremely venomous. To this day, there is no antidote to its venom."

"I'm giving this to you today; it might save your life in a critical moment!"

After saying that, the little red snake twisted its body, looking back every few steps, and broke free from the snake elder's arm. It slowly snaked its way up Qin Li's body, finally coiling around his arm and closing its vertical snake eyes, remaining motionless.

Thank you, teacher!

"Li'er, come visit your teacher again when you have time!"

After bowing respectfully, Qin Li turned and left the library.

On the way out, Qin Li couldn't help but reach out his other elbow to tease the little red snake wrapped around his arm.

The little red snake had just left its original owner and was heartbroken. It didn't want to pay any attention to Qin Li and didn't even bother to open its eyes.

As I left the library, I saw Zhou Biao waiting on the lakeshore in the distance.

Even Zhou Biao was not allowed to enter the library without his orders; he could only wait outside.

Wearing a small snake bracelet, Qin Li approached Zhou Biao and, before Zhou Biao could speak, said:

"What's wrong? Did you finish what I asked you to do?"

"Bring back a few female disciples from the Jade Maiden Sect? The more the better, my body can handle it."

"No," Zhou Biao quickly clasped his hands and said, "Your Highness, they are still on their way to find the Jade Maiden Sect disciples, and I believe good news will come soon."

"Couldn't get it!"

Qin Li frowned, somewhat annoyed. "Then what are you doing here?"

Zhou Biao pointed towards the main entrance and said, "Miss Wei has arrived and wishes to see Your Highness!"

Has Wei Hongying arrived?

What is Wei Hongying doing here?

I thought about it, but I still couldn't figure it out.

Qin Li took off his small snake bracelet and handed it to Zhou Biao, saying, "Take good care of her. If anything happens to Xiao Hong, I, the prince, will not forgive you."

In the past, he was always the one who went to find Wei Hongying; Wei Hongying never came to find him.

To be honest, Qin Li was a little excited when his friend suddenly came to see him today.

Is today the day my second brother is going to have a new meal?

Thinking of this, Qin Li strode towards the main gate.

After watching Qin Li leave, Zhou Biao looked down at the thing in his hand.

When Zhou Biao realized it was a small red snake, he was so frightened he almost jumped up and shouted for his mother.

Despite his burly appearance and considerable martial arts skills, he is terrified of snakes and gets goosebumps all over.

He instinctively threw the small red snake into the lake and shook his hand vigorously.

The little red snake moved like lightning, and with a whoosh, it flew back again.

She quickly climbed onto Zhou Biao's body and slapped him twice with her snake tail.

Then he stared intently at Zhou Biao with his vertical pupils, as if questioning the big guy why he threw it away, asking if he was looking for death.

Zhou Biao's face twitched, he gave an awkward laugh, and forced back the creepy feeling in his heart. He held the small snake in both hands as if it were his ancestral tablet, and left the library with trembling steps.

That's more like it... The little snake yawned widely, closed its eyes again, coiled up, and let Zhou Biao carry it away.

……

Several days later, at Mount Jiuyi.

When the late emperor was alive, he issued an edict to seal off Mount Jiuyi and dispatched troops to garrison the outer perimeter, patrolling day and night, forbidding anyone from entering. Anyone who disobeyed the order would be killed without mercy!

This resulted in the area around Mount Jiuyi being extremely desolate and sparsely populated.

However, with the "Dragon Vein Conference" approaching, Mount Jiuyi has become lively in the past few days.

Looking around, wow, it was a scene of deafening drums and gongs, crackling firecrackers, waving red flags, and a sea of ​​people...

After all, the mountain contains the dragon vein of the previous dynasty, which is a giant gold mine with countless gold and silver treasures. Everyone wants a piece of the pie.

Previously, they had no chance to come here because they couldn't even enter Jiuyi Mountain, let alone find the dragon vein of the previous dynasty.

This is good. The Xuan Emperor has decreed that Mount Jiuyi be opened, and everyone can enter Mount Jiuyi to search for treasures.

Today is the opening day of the Dragon Vein Conference. The mountain gate was crowded with people who wanted to enter the mountain to search for treasures early in the morning. They were piled up one layer after another, chest to back, and the line was so long that you could not see the end of it. There were at least tens of thousands of people.

"What? We need an entrance fee to get into the mountains?"

"Ten thousand taels per person!"

"Why don't you just rob a bank!"

"Sigh, what a load of rubbish, robbing a bank is nowhere near as fast as robbing you guys..."

Looking at the dense crowd in front of him, Zhou Biao finished speaking with a grin, then waved his hand. A team of fully armed soldiers, holding spears, immediately stepped forward and formed a human wall to block the mountain gate.

"Line up! Everyone who wants to go into the mountain, line up! You can enter by buying a ticket!"

"Ten thousand taels per person! Ten thousand taels per person!"

"No time limit for dealing with the young or old, no deception whatsoever!"

"No money, no entry! No money, no entry!"

After saying that, Zhou Biao took out a burlap sack he had prepared beforehand from his waistband, shook it vigorously, and prepared to fill it with money, looking just like a ruthless street vendor...
