Fighting Against the Odds: I Am the Right Path

But, there is nothing we can do.

If they could solve the colorful snake's food problem and find a way to appease the colorful snake to be obedient, they would definitely not ask Xiao Yan for help.

Xiao Yan had done so much for the Snake People, and he almost lost his life for it. They really didn't have the face to bother Xiao Yan again.

But for the sake of their queen, this face must be lost!

Xiao Yan frowned as he looked at the leaders in front of him who bowed their heads deeply and sincerely asked for help from him.

He knew that Yue Mei and other leaders were really at a loss, so they entrusted Queen Medusa to him.

As subjects, they must have made a great decision to entrust the Queen they served to an outsider.

Their behavior is like silently spitting on their own incompetence.

Yet, they did it anyway.

It's not only for Queen Medusa, but also for believing in yourself from the bottom of your heart.

Xiao Yan was naturally very touched to be trusted by others.

But still, it's a bit difficult.

"If Queen Medusa follows me and leaves, won't the snake people be in trouble?"

"Don't worry, Yan'er."

In response to Xiao Yan's question, Xiao Yu spoke softly before Yue Mei could speak.

"Don't worry about the Snake People. As long as Queen Medusa is alive, the Snake People will always be a deterrent, no matter where Queen Medusa is."

"What's more, with His Highness Yaoye and I, the affairs of the Serpent People can proceed smoothly even without the participation of Queen Medusa."

"Just think of it as my sake and agree to it."

Xiao Jing knew that Xiao Yan was not only worried about the problems of the Snake People, but some of those problems were actually very unfavorable to Xiao Yan.

For example, in the future it is very likely that Queen Medusa will attack Xiao Yan, who is taking care of her.

But Xiao Ji finally spoke up for Yue Mei and the others.

As long as he asked, Xiao Yan, who respected him, would definitely agree.

Xiao Jing admitted that this was taking advantage of Xiao Yan's sincere feelings for him, but Xiao Jing also had his own considerations.

Promising to Yue Mei and the others to take care of Queen Medusa would not only solve the problem of no one being able to take care of Queen Medusa at this stage, but would also bring many benefits to Xiao Yan.

The most important point is the full support of the snake people.

As long as Xiao Yan agreed, no matter who Xiao Yan opposed in the future, the Snake People would definitely stand firm and stand on Xiao Yan's side with all the strength of the clan, and would never retreat.

The Snake People are Xiao Yan’s most steadfast and powerful backing.

This is definitely a result that is beneficial to Xiao Yan.

".I see."

Sure enough, it was just as Xiao Wei knew.

After hearing what Xiao Wei said, Xiao Yan no longer considered the pros and cons and agreed to the request of Yue Mei and others.

Then Xiao Yan looked at Yue Mei and the others and made a solemn promise to them.

"I will definitely try to take good care of it."

"Thank you so much!"

Yue Mei and the others were overjoyed, their eyes showing deep gratitude, and Xiao Yi also breathed a sigh of relief.

The issue of Queen Medusa was finally resolved, so she could focus all her attention on the negotiations between the Snake People and the Gama Empire.

Xiao Yan carefully placed the colorful little snake in his arms, then stood up and said to Xiao Wei.

"Sister, I will leave with Xiao Yixian tomorrow."

“Eh?! Xiao Yanzi! Are you leaving now?” As soon as Xiao Yan finished speaking, Xiao Li rushed over and pressed Xiao Yan’s shoulders, eyes full of reluctance, “Second sister hasn’t treated you to roasted scorpions yet!”

"Ha, let's wait until next time to roast the scorpion. The problem with the Little Medical Fairy must be solved as soon as possible."

Xiao Yan chuckled to Xiao Li, and then Yao Ye asked.

"Where are you going?"

"Go to the Monster Mountain Range."

Xiao Yan replied like this, and then Yao Ye spread out one hand.

"In that case, come with us tomorrow. My great grandfather and I are also going back to the Holy City of Gama tomorrow, so we can take you part of the way."

"Hmm?" Xiao Yan was slightly stunned by Yao Ye's words. "Aren't you and the Snake People still negotiating a reconciliation?"

"Reconciliation cannot be completed in a short time. We need to issue a notice to the citizens and prepare to migrate the snake people to the Gama Empire. It will take at least half a year to complete a series of things." Yao Ye explained with a smile: "For now, the reconciliation between the Gama Empire and the snake people has not been completed. It is not suitable for us to stay here for a long time. Moreover, Grandpa and General Nalan cannot leave the Holy City of Gama for too long."

"And there will be no need for Grandfather to attend the subsequent reconciliation talks. I will make preparations after I return to represent the Jiama Empire. The Serpent Tribe will also send a leader. As for the middleman, it will naturally be Captain Xiao Jing."

The hatred between humans and the snake people has accumulated for many years. Therefore, even if both sides want to reach a reconciliation, they must first find a way to make their respective people accept it as much as possible. This is true for the Gama Empire and the snake people.

If the merger of two forces is to develop in the long run, it cannot be decided simply by the people above signing a piece of paper. The opinions of the people are also very important.

"That's it."

Xiao Yan nodded in understanding. He had indeed not thought about it so much before. From this aspect, Yao Ye, who had received royal education since childhood, was much better than himself.

"Then I'll trouble His Highness Yaoye to give me a ride."

Xiao Yan chuckled.

Afterwards, Xiao Yan said goodbye and returned to his room. He placed the colorful little snake in his arms next to his pillow and fell asleep peacefully.

Just when everyone thought that things were moving in the right direction.

The turmoil was stirred up again.

The next morning, Xiao Yan got up and put the still sleeping colorful little snake into his arms. He left the room to meet up with Xiao Yixian, and together they went to find Yao Ye and prepared to set off.

However, something happened that made Xiao Yan's heart tighten.

Yesterday, Xiao Jing instructed Qing Lin and other members of the Motie Mercenary Group to return to Mo City first, pack up and prepare to reopen the trading station. Xiao Jing and Xiao Li will go back after they finish dealing with the Snake People.

It would take at least half a year to complete the settlement, during which time it was necessary for the trading station to continue operating.

However, in the early hours of this morning, a sand fox carried a dying man to the holy land of the snake people.

This man was a member of the Motie Mercenary Group who returned to Mo City with Qinglin yesterday.

In an instant, Xiao Wei's heart suddenly tightened, and he immediately realized that an accident had occurred.

Then I got the information from this man.

Last night, a large number of people who claimed to be from the Yunlan Sect rushed into Mo City and slaughtered most of the people in Mo City. Even the little spirit summoned by Qinglin was defeated by the leader, and Qinglin was even abducted by him.

In the end, he was the only one who survived the Motie Mercenary Group. He held his last breath and let the sand fox carry him to the holy land of the snake people to convey this message.

And then, there was no life.

Looking at the man who died in his arms, Xiao Wei's face was gloomy and his black eyes were flashing with scarlet light.

"The Yunlan Sect massacred Mocheng?"

Nalan Jie frowned, and there was anger in his eyes.

Even a fool could see that someone was throwing dirty water on the Yunlan Sect!

The Yunlan Sect has certainly acted as a protective umbrella for the slave trade over the years and has done countless evil things.

But, they are not stupid!

Not to mention that the Yunlan Sect has never taken the initiative to intervene. At this critical juncture when the Jia Ma Royal Family and the Snake People are preparing to reconcile, they can only try their best to clear themselves, and will never do something that will make it even more impossible for them to wash themselves clean!

And there is only one person who can do this.

The head of the Mohist family who runs the slave business, Mo Cheng!

"This damn thing," Jia Xingtian said coldly, his eyes full of murderous intent, "Knowing that he can't do anything more this time, he simply dragged the Yunlan Sect into the water completely."

The reason why Mo Cheng did not kill everyone in Mo City was to leave a confession and make people think that the things in Mo City were done by Yunlan Sect!

"It seems that I didn't do anything to him before, so Mo Cheng really thinks he is a big shot."

The reason why Jia Xingtian didn’t attack the Mohist School before was because they had the Yunlan Sect behind them.

The people in the Yunlan Sect should have known about this incident, and they will definitely find a way to abandon the Mohist School and distance themselves from the Mohist School.

And now, the Mohist School has done something like throwing dirty water on the Yunlan Sect, making those people in the Yunlan Sect who already wanted to abandon the Mohist School even more determined!

This time, I wonder who can protect you!!!

"Why do they want to catch Qinglin?!"

Xiao Yan asked with a frown, Yao Ye looked at Xiao Yan and answered slowly.

"Mo Cheng of the Mo family has been secretly performing human organ transplants, and the reason he took Qing Lin away was because he was attracted by her Green Snake Three Flower Pupils."

As soon as Yao Ye finished speaking, Xiao Yi gently put down the man's body, slowly stood up, and turned to look at Yue Mei.

Yue Mei was suddenly frightened by Xiao Ji's expression at that moment!

When had she ever seen Xiao Wei look so horrible? !

"Yuemei."

Xiao Yu spoke in a calm voice, and one could immediately hear the resentment in his voice.

Obviously, Mo Cheng's act of massacring Mo Cheng and abducting Qing Lin had touched Xiao Ji's reverse scale!

"Lend me some manpower, I'll go to the Mo family now."

"it is good!"

As soon as Xiao Wei finished speaking, Yue Mei immediately nodded and agreed without any hesitation.

Xiao Ji then looked at Jia Xingtian, trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart, and spoke slowly.

"Mr. Jia, the Jiama royal family should not get involved in this matter for now. The participation of the snake people is enough."

After all, the Mohists are just small characters.

The real trouble is the Yunlan Sect behind them.

Of course, Mohist's actions this time made it impossible for Yunlan Sect to protect Mohist.

However, the influence of the Yunlan Sect is so great in the Jiama Empire that there are disciples of the Yunlan Sect in almost every walk of life and even every class.

If the royal family was directly involved in this matter, then the Yunlan Sect would have seized upon it and used it to spread rumors that were unfavorable to the royal family, causing the people's trust in the royal family to decline. If things developed to this point, it would inevitably affect the reconciliation with the Snake People.

In the war of public opinion, we must be extremely careful.

The Mohist School can throw dirty water on the Yunlan Sect, and the Yunlan Sect can naturally throw dirty water on the royal family.

He, Mo Cheng, said that the Yunlan Sect massacred Mocheng, and the Yunlan Sect could also say that the royal family wiped out the Mo family in order to silence them.

As for what to silence?

There is no need to even make up a reason.

The two words "silencing" are enough to arouse people's imagination and make them distrust the royal family.

People can’t tell what’s true from what’s false.

As long as the royal family is involved in the affairs of the Mohist school, no matter how much evidence they present, they will not be able to explain the facts.

Even the evidence itself will be doubted by the public.

Therefore, the best way is to simply not participate.

When Jia Xingtian heard Xiao Yi's speech, he instantly understood what she meant. Yao Ye also suddenly understood it after a moment.

"I see! No wonder Captain Xiao Jing wants to seek help from the snake people!"

At this moment, Yao Ye's admiration for Xiao Ji deepened!

The royal family cannot participate because they are afraid of giving others a reason to criticize them.

But it is only natural for the snake people to participate!

Because the Mohists were the main promoters of the slave trade, and in the Gama Empire, the snake people were the ones who suffered the most from the slave trade!

It is only natural and reasonable for the Snake People to encircle and suppress the Mohist School!
