I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

It just so happens that there is a Bai Lianxian in the family who can inherit the zodiac sign of the snake, so bringing it back wouldn't be a waste.

"If it snows, let's give them a snowfall first!"

Lin Yi didn't want to charge straight in at the beginning. He looked down and saw that the Red-banded Serpent's lair was winding and twisting, and he would definitely get lost if he went in.

Since that's the case, why not let the next snowfall force them out?

Coincidentally, at that very moment, the Crimson Serpent Clan was also discussing revenge against Lin Yi.

Last time, Lin Yi killed a demon king, who was the demon king of the Crimson Serpent Clan, and Lin Yi easily killed him with a single strike.

The Crimson Serpent Clan was naturally unwilling to let the matter rest.

We must get our revenge!

Chapter 465 Exterminating the Snake

The Crimson Serpent Clan was unaware that they were about to face a great calamity; they were still discussing revenge.

The snake clan has thrived to this day not because of its venom, but because of its vengeful nature.

The trait of holding grudges allows the snake race to avoid many conflicts. Although there are also many conflicts that occur during the process of seeking revenge, such battles are necessary.

Only when the snake clan is bullied and other snake clans help them get revenge will others dare not provoke them.

Over time, the vengeful nature has become deeply ingrained in the snake race's bloodline.

No matter how strong the enemy is, you must seek revenge when you find the opportunity.

This is a characteristic of the snake race.

At this moment, in the Crimson Flame Mountain, the Crimson Serpent Clan and its affiliated serpent clans gathered together to discuss the war of revenge.

At this meeting, She Yun, the clan chief of the She clan, emphasized the need to severely crack down on any behavior that endangers the safety of the snake clan and to have zero tolerance for individuals and groups that infringe upon the interests of the snake clan.

All snake clans must unite and build a strong snake clan united front. All snake clans must give full play to their own advantages, cooperate and work together.

This time, the opponent is indeed very strong, but as long as the snake clan is united, there is no enemy they cannot defeat.

Defending the dignity of the snake race is an inescapable responsibility for every member of the snake race.

She Yun's speech won the unanimous approval of the snake clan. After She Yun's speech, the snake clan was excited and couldn't wait to find the man who killed the Crimson Serpent King to take revenge. Little did they know that the man had already come knocking on their door.

She Yun was the first to sense that something was wrong.

After all, she was the patriarch of the Crimson Serpent Clan, and the patriarch of the entire serpent clan. Her cultivation was far superior to that of all other serpent clans, and she also possessed the divine power of the Zodiac Serpent Guardian Deity. In the serpent clan, she was the strongest.

Snakes are very sensitive to temperature changes, especially the red-banded snake. Red-banded snakes love fire, which is why they have established themselves in the Crimson Flame Mountain. The underground is a natural volcano, where the red-banded snake can exert its strongest fighting power and is more suitable to live.

Crimson Flame Mountain is warm and humid year-round, but she just felt an unusual chill.

"Go check what's going on outside. Why has it suddenly gotten so cold?"

She Yun also harbored some wariness, but not much.

Having been the leader of the snake clan for many years, she had gradually lost her sense of awe. Even though three of the twelve zodiac animals had recently been lost, she remained completely unperturbed.

Because she has a huge clan, it can be said that no other zodiac clan is as powerful as hers, which is the source of her confidence.

She didn't try to compete for the leader's position; there was no need. But one thing was certain: whoever became the leader would have to give her face.

This place is also the headquarters of the Crimson Serpent Clan. Coincidentally, she has gathered almost all the experts of the serpent clan in order to avenge her niece.

With such immense power, who is she afraid of?

Sending people to investigate is just another way for those in power to issue orders from above.

Before long, the news reached the cave.

"Chieftain, there are clumps of willow catkins floating in the sky outside. Those catkins are very strange; they turn into water as soon as they fall to the ground."

She Yun: "..."

That's something you've never seen before; it's snow!

The area within a hundred miles of Crimson Flame Mountain is too warm, and it has never snowed, so much so that these ignorant younger generations do not recognize what it is.

Since snow is so rare that even the little demons living here don't recognize it, why is it suddenly snowing?

"It seems that our Red Serpent Clan has been out of the world for too long, and our reputation has declined. Someone actually dares to be so presumptuous at our gate! My men, follow me out of the cave to meet the enemy!"

"kill!"

The snake clan members were all filled with excitement. Although they were cold-blooded animals, it did not diminish their passion at this moment.

Lin Yi smiled slightly as he watched the surging demonic energy rushing towards him.

To fall for such a simple trick, the Crimson Serpent Clan is far too careless. If it were him, he would never have rushed out so recklessly.

That's good; the dumber the enemy, the less trouble he'll have.

Before long, She Yun led a group of snakes out of the cave with great momentum, and in just a short while, the area outside the cave was covered in silver.

Snakes don't like the cold, so they're naturally very uncomfortable right now.

She Yun looked at the four people standing in the snow, her cold pupils becoming exceptionally dangerous.

"Who are you people? Are you here to die?"

Lin Yi's eyes lit up when he saw She Yun.

It wasn't because of her unusually extravagant granary, but rather the description of her in the Demon-Slaying Manual.

[She Yun, a member of the Crimson Serpent Clan, usurped the position of the Snake God in the Chinese Zodiac. For years, she has allowed her clan to feed on human flesh and spirit, causing havoc and leading to a widespread snake infestation. Killing her will grant 8,400 years of undiminished cultivation.]

[Merits and Demerits: Heinous Crimes – The Serpent Clan's Culprit]

[Status: Enraged and manic, ready to attack enemies at any time]

【Special Skills: Yama's Decree (Extremely poisonous, instant death upon contact with blood), Entanglement of Love (Extremely poisonous, injury occurs upon emotional attachment), Joy of Reunion (Poisonous mist, melts flesh and bones upon contact), One-Foot Red (Creates countless clones with poisonous blood, allowing silent approach to prey and injection of toxins)】

Weakness: Sensitive to cold

Su Xian'er's senses were correct; there was indeed a zodiac snake here, and it must have stolen the zodiac snake's divine position.

Unlike the dragon, dog, and rat, She Yun brought this upon herself, while the dragon and dog were merely betrayers.

Although She Yun possessed magical abilities, she wasn't the most important target. Lin Yi asked Su Xian'er, "Have you found her?"

"Found her! It's her!"

Su Xian'er accurately identified the snake that Lin Yi absolutely had to kill.

That was a snake spirit named She Bao standing behind She Yun. She had a snake spirit face, and it looked like she hadn't transformed properly, still retaining her original features.

He was uniquely ugly, but his cultivation was not high; he had only been around for a little over two thousand years and wasn't even a demon king.

However, Guan Buping and Bao Sanniang were indeed unable to deal with such skill.

With such low cultivation level, Lin Yi didn't need to put in much effort; he simply raised his hand and issued an edict.

With a spell cast, a bolt of lightning descended from the sky, striking She Bao precisely on the head. She Yun tried to intervene, but was too slow.

Even if she did know who Lin Yi was going to strike, she wouldn't be able to withstand Lin Yi's magic with her spells.

Lin Yi comprehended the Daoist essence of immortals, which is equivalent to a dimensional reduction attack for mortals. Under the same realm, they can be called invincible, not to mention that Lin Yi's cultivation level is overwhelming.

With a single blow, She Bao turned to ashes on the spot. There was no way to save him, but burying him on the spot was still an option.

Lin Yi's ruthless methods really startled She Yun, and the once fearless girl couldn't help but panic.

She hadn't realized how profound Lin Yi's cultivation was, but if Lin Yi had struck her with that move just now, she definitely wouldn't have been able to react in time. If she had been struck by lightning, she didn't know if she could have withstood it.

"Who are you? Why did you kill my people?!"

Seeing that she couldn't win the fight, She Yun started trying to reason with them.

But Lin Yi only ever reasoned with people who didn't need reasoning; he preferred to take direct action against those who didn't.

In just a few words of conversation, Lin Yi's Demon-Slaying Manual had included all the snake demons that had appeared. Although the snake clan was not as numerous as the rat clan, there were still several hundred to nearly a thousand snake demons here.

Although their numbers are fewer than those of the rat race, each snake demon possesses relatively high cultivation levels, ranging from snake demons with only a few decades of cultivation before they take human form to demon kings with thousands of years of cultivation.

Without exception, all of these snake demons had taken lives on their hands.

This shows that Lin Yi would have no psychological burden when killing the entire Crimson Serpent Clan.

"To clarify, I'm not harming your people, I want to kill you all!"

She Yun: "..."

Hearing Lin Yi's words, she laughed in anger.

"Such arrogance! I'll see what you're capable of!"

She Yun appeared disdainful and contemptuous, but in reality, a true expert's skill is immediately apparent.

Lin Yi's summoning of thunder just now had already left She Yun with a great psychological trauma.

Therefore, she didn't hold back at all and unleashed her trump card, the One-Zhang Red.

Originally, in a place like Crimson Flame Mountain, her One-Zhang Red technique was quite well hidden, because the stones of Crimson Flame Mountain were all red, which could perfectly conceal her traces.

However, today Chiyan Mountain is covered in snow, and the "One Zhang Red" has become "Snow Red," making it all too obvious.

Lin Yi saw the subtle red line and knew that this was She Yun's insidious trick. If she got close and injected the strange poison, that would be truly shameful.

Although he was tough and strong, he still dared not provoke someone who played with poison.

He immediately swung his demon-slaying sword a few times and shattered several of She Yun's ten-foot-long red streaks.

The most dangerous thing about the red-banded snake is its venom, so Lin Yi naturally wants to protect the people around him.

Su Xian'er was also very vigilant. Seeing that She Yun had already made a move, she knew that it was time for her to play a supporting role.

After getting together with Lin Yi, Su Xian'er became increasingly clear about her own position.

She doesn't need to attack or defend; she just needs to strike unexpectedly at crucial moments to create opportunities for Lin Yi.

Coincidentally, these are all things she excels at.

Of course, she was originally very skilled in attack, with the Nine-Fold Foxfire in one hand, which was extremely powerful, and the Ruyi Pearl in the other hand, which could be changed in countless ways.

It can be said that she was previously capable of ranged attacks, close combat, magic, and martial arts.

It's a pity that a good fox doesn't dwell on her past glories; she's doing just fine as a support now.
