However, Luo Yu understood that Elufina had only been the Demon King for a short time and was unaware of many secrets, so she spoke up to explain.

"It is said that this person is extremely skilled with poison, and those who are poisoned by him do not know who poisoned them and can only die painfully in ignorance."

Why is he called the Silver Snake in front?

“You’ve already seen the Silver Serpent, haven’t you? As for Thousand Faces, no one has ever seen his true face. It’s said that every time he appears, he wears the face of another race, and no one has ever seen his snake face.”

Elufina remained silent for a moment, thinking about the hideous snake head she had just seen. It was so ugly that it seemed it was best to keep it hidden.

"Oh no, his target is Yukine, and he's probably already on his way to the Demon King's Castle."

Elufina suddenly remembered that the snake king's biggest target was Lin Xueyin, and now that he was advancing, he was probably already close to the Demon King's castle.

Enraged, Elufina rushed towards the Demon King's Castle. Upon hearing that the Serpent King's target was Lin Xueyin, Luo Yu was naturally worried as well. He drew an energy circle around himself with his staff and flew rapidly towards the Demon King's Castle with her.

"Hey? Nana, you're back so soon. How did things go? Did you resolve things over there?"

"Yukine, give me a kiss."

Arriving in front of Lin Xueyin, looking at this cute little girl, Elufina didn't say a word, but made this seemingly impolite request. Then, Lin Xueyin blushed and slammed a large magic staff down on her.

"Can't you be serious for once? My friends are still here. Don't I, Lin, have any dignity?"

Seeing Lin Xueyin's normal reaction, Elufina actually showed a relieved smile. Fortunately, she returned in time and had not yet encountered the snake king.

"Xueyin, listen to me. I just encountered three of the Demon God's subordinates. One is called the Snake King, and I can't remember the names of the other two. However, one of their goals is to capture you, so I'm a little worried about you..."

"Worried about me? No need. But since those people are organized, shouldn't you capture them alive and interrogate them properly? After all, with these people lurking around, it is indeed a bit worrying to be safe."

Elufina stared intently at the girl in front of her, really wanting to tell her that as long as she was safe, that was all that mattered; as for the others, it didn't matter if they died.

"Hey, Nana, I'm talking to you, why aren't you answering me?"

Lin Xueyin gently waved her small hand in front of her eyes, but still couldn't bring her back to her senses. She pouted unhappily and grabbed her ample breasts hard, finally bringing her back to her senses with a gasp.

"Tell me, what were you thinking about just now? Don't tell me you were thinking about other women, or I won't be happy."

"I can't get enough of you, how could I be thinking about other women? Little girl, you're overthinking it. But I was just wondering why those people wanted to arrest you. There's no reason at all."

"You can't even imagine it. When that person comes out, just grab him and interrogate him properly. What's the big deal?"

Lin Xueyin said that this was no big deal, and that they could just arrest the person and then ask them whatever they wanted.

"Yes, that's true. But we don't know his location yet. However, I hope you can stay in the room and wait for me to catch him before coming out."

Lin Xueyin looked at Elufina, whose expression was shifting, and knew that she was worried about her. She understood her concerns and closed her eyes. After thinking for a moment, she spoke.

"Okay, but you should also worry. I'll take good care of myself. No matter what happens, just trust me."

She made a decision in her heart and was about to turn around and walk towards her room when Elufina grabbed her jade-like wrist.

"Yukine, don't blame me, I did too..."

"Alright, what time is it? Would I blame you? No matter how you treat me, I won't blame you. Nana, we have to work hard so that we won't be defeated by the demon god. Trust me, just like I trust you."

He turned around, stood on tiptoe, and planted a light kiss on Elufina's pretty face. The slight smile that appeared on his face brought a touch of warmth to Elufina's heart.

Luo Yu rushed over from behind and saw this heartbreaking scene. Did these two really not care about the occasion when they were showing affection? Couldn't they be considerate of the people around them?

Irabel and Ikux watched the plot unfold with some speechlessness. As for Princess Luoyu, she was also feeling a bit frustrated. She really hoped that when the Demon God appeared later, she could just kill the Demon King.

"Eh? Luo Yu, you're here too. That's great. But Nana told me to go back to my room and hide for a bit, so I won't be able to entertain you."

She spoke to Luo Yu, who had just arrived, and also to Irabel and Ikux behind her. She could tell that Nana wasn't really interested in their arrival. Although she wanted to have a good chat with them, Lin Xueyin decided to wait for another opportunity, considering Nana's feelings. After all, Irabel and the others had already told her everything.

As for what happens next, I'll discuss it with Nana properly after this matter is over, and then decide whether to take the initiative or remain on the defensive.

Volume 10: The Reviving Demon God - Chapter 32: Sneak Attack

The night wind rises, scattering leaves and petals in a melancholy flurry. Lin Xueyin, her hands stroking her hair, gazes at her reflection in the mirror, her face unchanged. She sighs softly. Nana probably won't be coming again today. Ever since she learned that the snake had infiltrated her room, she hasn't been to her room for three days.

Previously, I always felt that Nana kept me in bed so much that it was a bit too much (it's hard to explain), but this sudden neglect is making it hard for me to adjust. People always think too much, want too much, yet don't really know what they want or what they truly desire.

"Ugh, I'm so bored. I should have known better than to agree to Nana's request."

She raised her arms high and buried herself in the soft mattress, then wriggled back onto her pillow, inhaling the fresh scent of sunshine, and took a deep, blissful breath.

"Your Highness, here is the black tea you requested, and some snacks that His Majesty the Demon King personally requested to be delivered to you."

"Hmm, just put it there. By the way, where is the Demon King now?"

"This... Ah, His Majesty the Demon King is currently taking a walk in the garden with the princess of the Elf race, and... and..."

The stammering maid made Lin Xueyin frown. "You can't even speak properly. Where did you come from?"

These words were rather harsh. The implication was that if she couldn't speak properly, she shouldn't be working as a maid here. This was practically a dismissal, which startled the maid so much that she knelt down on the ground.

"Your Highness, I really don't know. I really don't know what His Majesty and the Elf Princess were doing in the garden. They even chased all the maids away. We really don't know anything about it."

"Heh, you mean Nana and Luoyu are currently alone in the garden, doing something, is that right?"

Lin Xueyin chuckled as she touched her long hair. Hmm, it was golden and hadn't changed color yet, so it didn't need weeding.

"Your Highness, that's not what I meant, really not..."

In an instant, a flash of light appeared, and the maid who had been kneeling on the ground now stared ferociously at the man sitting on the bed in front of her, her face full of mockery.

How did you come to suspect me?

"Tch, you idiot. I basically don't eat sweets at night, and Nana knows that. Why would she specifically send a maid to bring me snacks? Besides, do you think Nana would go to the small garden with Luo Yu? Ha, if she really did, someone would die."

"You woman, you're not even jealous. I was originally planning to make you angry and go to the small garden, but since you don't want to go, I'll just have to let you leave here."

The sudden change from her sweet voice to that of a rough, burly man caused Lin Xueyin extreme discomfort in her stomach.

"I really want to say 'MMP,' but looking at your face, I really can't. But now shut up and don't say anything." Seeing that the other person was about to speak again, Lin Xueyin quickly shut him up.

"Woman, you brought this on yourself. But you should also know what your fate will be."

"My fate?" Seeing a cold smile flash across the other person's face, a sense of foreboding suddenly arose.

"You mean... uh, poisonous?"

He got up but found that his limbs were weak and the divine energy he had just gathered turned into specks of light and dissipated into the air in the next second.

"Look, look at how cute that expression is! Horror, fear, fright, worry, and even terror from the unknown—it's just wonderful."

His finger tapped the girl, who was now slumped helplessly on the bed, a sinister glint in his eyes as he watched her panicked state. He desperately wanted to avenge the demon king's previous humiliation on this woman. However, remembering that she was handpicked by the Demon God, he knew that if he were to actually lay a hand on her, it wouldn't be as simple as just an insult; he might not even be able to save his own life.

"Ahem, what exactly do you want to do?"

The poisonous gas formed a ring that tightly encircled the girl's limbs, even pulling her body off the bed and suspending her in mid-air. Her painful struggles only earned her the enemy's mockery. The maid, who had been a servant, now revealed a pair of emotionless snake eyes.

The forked tongue twitched incessantly between its lips, and the grinning face at the corners of its lips was even more chilling.

"What are you trying to do? Ugh, I'm so sad."

Suddenly, the ring of poison gas tightened around the girl's slender, jade-like neck, causing her to be in so much pain that she could no longer utter a word.

"I'm so happy and satisfied. The Demon King beat me up like a dead dog before. Now, I'm going to make her woman suffer a fate worse than death. Although I can't attack you directly, my poison will make you suffer so much that you wish you were dead."

"Struggle, suffer, beg, and sink forever into the abyss of blood and fire."

"You're dreaming, cough cough. Stop it right now."

Suddenly, Lin Xueyin saw a rune block in the other person's hand, made of an unknown material, suddenly emit a dazzling light, causing her body to involuntarily fly towards that rune.

"Ugh, what is this? Stop it! Stop it!"

Her voice was choked with sobs, filled with pain and sorrow, yet she couldn't stop her body from moving towards the radiant light, her long golden hair swaying from side to side, scattering like brilliant, fleeting blossoms.

"Don't worry, you'll be taken to where you're meant to be. Our Grand Marshal has prepared a special welcome gift for you there."

"Yukine..."

The door was suddenly pushed open, and Elufina looked angrily at the snake king in front of her who had already captured Lin Xueyin. Guilt, regret, and other emotions were constantly intertwined.

"Isn't this the Demon King? But it's a pity, your little girl will soon be visiting our place."

"You dare?" His eyes met Lin Xueyin's, and he could only watch helplessly as she was swallowed by the light, listening to the Snake King's triumphant laughter.

"Goodbye, my Demon King."

The snake king had just finished speaking and hadn't even made any move when he saw the light that had swallowed Lin Xueyin vanish instantly from his sight.

This isn't right. This isn't the script we talked about before. Didn't we say he could go back together? Why is it closed now?

The emptiness before him seemed to mock him silently. Elufina's furious aura relentlessly assaulted the serpent king, who was already terrified.

Step by step, as if stepping on his own heartbeat, he gradually approached the Snake King. "You said you kidnapped my little girl, then shouldn't you tell me where you took her?"

Ahhh, the protagonist has been captured! Captured so easily? How terrifying! Hmmm, friendly reminder: the protagonist is an alchemist, she has an antidote. You can probably imagine what she's going to do, right? 0.0 Is this considered a spoiler? But I'm so afraid of getting flamed; I've been a bit sensitive lately.

Volume 10: The Reviving Demon God - Chapter 33: Letting the Wolf In

The day of Yi-Mao (乙卯) is a Rooster day that clashes with Rabbit. The year's evil influence is in the East. It is auspicious for burial but inauspicious for moving into a new house.

With a piercing scream, Lin Xueyin collapsed painfully onto the dark, damp ground. Her azure pupils scanned her surroundings frantically. Outside a wooden cage made of thick poles, several figures seemed to be chatting and laughing, or perhaps they were watching her.

"Who are you?" She huddled in a corner of the cell, as if that gave her a sense of security. But Lin Xueyin knew that at this moment, they were like the butcher's block, and she was the fish on the chopping block.

"I can't believe the Snake King actually did it. However, that rune can only let one person in. If we hadn't said that beforehand, he probably would have used it as an escape tool."

Without answering Lin Xueyin's question, or rather, ignoring the girl, a man emerged from the shadows, his imposing body covered in black, dragon-scale-like scales.

The dragon's head, resembling a black dragon, coldly scrutinized the girl in the prison. "You are Lin Xueyin."

The affirmative tone, which brooked no argument, made Lin Xueyin tremble involuntarily. She buried her head in her curled-up knees, not daring to give any reply.

"Don't worry, we won't do anything to you. You are the woman chosen by the Demon God, and we will not take any action against you before receiving any orders from the Demon God."

"Demons... Demon Gods, who exactly are you? Don't you know that Demon Gods will make this world brutal?"

With tears welling in her eyes and her lips pursed, the girl looked at the dragon-headed man before her with a wronged expression. "Aren't you afraid that the demon god will come and destroy this world?"

"Destroying the world? How could the great Demon God do such a thing? In his eyes, you are nothing but livestock. Just as all races raise livestock to eat, he will raise you, but not to eat you, but to enjoy watching you struggle in fear."

"What a pervert!" Lin Xueyin thought to herself. This demon god was just a pervert, but what could she do at this moment?

"Is it just to watch us struggle to survive that he can satisfy his perverse tastes? This demon god is truly petty."

"Hmph, how could you, a woman, possibly know the greatness of the Demon God? Every bit of fear and negative emotion you feel contributes to the Demon God's energy. The more fear you feel, the stronger the Demon God will become."

Simply put, it uses people's inner darkness or negative emotions such as fear as spiritual nourishment to continuously expand its own strength. Hmm, as expected of a demon god, even its method of increasing its power is so remarkable.
