The Supreme Sword Master

Chapter 25

After walking for a long time in Snake Forest, the forest grew darker and darker. Tang Ye sized up the surroundings carefully, and he noticed the surroundings were covered in towering ancient trees that rose straight into the sky and their branches and leaves were interweaved together tightly. A few strands of sunlight were only able to pass through some places that weren’t so tightly packed with leaves. During this period of time, some small snakes occasionally launched surprise attacks against them from the treetop. However, these small snakes didn’t cause any trouble for them, and their group dealt with the small snakes with extreme ease. Tang Ye didn’t fight during this period of time because Qing Hong was constantly following by his side. Once a snake suddenly launched an attack, she would deal with them by herself, and Tang Ye didn’t have the chance to make a move at all. It was exactly because of this that Tang Ye was constantly ridiculed by Xiu Yuan during this period of time. Tang Ye followed this group for a few hours, and he obtained a rough understanding of the strengths of independent cultivators and disciples from a sect. When independent cultivators were compared with disciples from a sect, the gap was slightly big. Because disciples from a sect possessed cultivation resources like techniques and treasures, whereas, if the four independent cultivators before him were taken as an example, then besides Xiu Yuan’s weapon being a low-grade Yellow Rank sword, the weapons of the others weren’t graded at all. Moreover, the four of them didn’t possess any proper techniques, and they mostly relied on brute force to fight. As for Xiu Yuan’s disdain and ridicule, Tang Ye completely disregarded it. Even though Xiu Yuan was at the ninth rank of the Mortal Realm, Tang Ye didn’t take him seriously at all. According to Tang Ye’s estimation, even Duan Jun whom he’d crippled would be able to deal with Xiu Yuan. The gap between the disciples of a sect and independent cultivators was truly huge! As they went deeper into Snake Forest, the number of snakes residing on the trees grew more and more numerous in number. In the end, they were assaulted by all sorts of snakes with every 10 plus meters of distance they covered. Hiss~Qing Hong held the dagger in her hand as it flashed past from above Tang Ye, and a small snake was instantly split into two and fell to the ground. After she killed the small snake with a single strike, Qing Hong patted Tang Ye on the head and said, “Didn’t I say that you should always follow behind me? Even though this small snake’s cultivation isn’t high, it contains venomous poison, and it’ll be extremely troublesome if you’re bitten by it.” Tang Ye rubbed his nose when he heard this, and he was slightly amused. Because even if he stood there and allowed those small snakes to bite him, they would probably be unable to bit through his skin. However, Tang Ye was still moved by the woman’s concern. They’d only met by chance, yet this woman before him had taken care of him on many occasions, and this caused his heart to feel slightly warm. Bang! Right at this moment, a large python that had two wings on its back suddenly descended not too far ahead from them. The body of the python was even larger than the Colossal Python King Tang Ye had killed that day, and its entire body was dark black while its body was covered in scales that seemed like Dark Iron. Moreover, the python had a pair of pitch black wings. This python didn’t attack Tang Ye and the others. It just obstructed their path, and its enormous eyes stared at them while emanating a ferocious glow. “That’s an eight rank Twin Wing Python, watch out everyone!” When he saw this Twin Wing Python suddenly appear, the Profound Energy within Man’zi’s body surged, and his expression became solemn while he immediately warned the others. At the same time, Xiu Yuan and Xiao Hei hurriedly moved a few meters towards both sides, and they gazed at the Twin Wing Python with vigilance. Qing Hong who stood by Tang Ye’s side had hurriedly pulled down the longbow from her shoulder and nocked an arrow before aiming it at the Twin Wing Python in the distance. “Man’zi, kill it. The inner core of this Twin Wing Python can be sold for 5,000 gold coins at least. Moreover, its skin can definitely be sold for 1,000 gold coins at least. What do you think?” Meanwhile, Xiu Yuan’s eyes flickered with the glow of greed as he asked in a low voice.Man’zi’s eyes flashed with a wisp of greed as well when he heard this, and he hesitated for a moment before he nodded and said, “The three of us will attack it jointly from three directions. Qing Hong, you assist us with your bow and arrow. Attack!” As soon as he finished speaking, Man’zi, Xiao Hei, and Xiu Yuan instantly charged at the Twin Wing Python because a Darkbeast that was all alone by itself was their favorite. Qing Hong who stood by Tang Ye’s side stared fixedly at the Twin Wing Python instead, yet the arrow within her hand wasn’t released. She was waiting for an opportunity, a lethal opportunity. Otherwise, her arrow would be utterly unable to pierce the defenses of the Twin Wing Python. Their targets were originally those Darkbeasts at the sixth or seventh rank because they were able to deal with Darkbeasts at these ranks of cultivation. As for a Darkbeast at the eighth rank, they usually fled immediately upon encountering one. Because the defenses of an eighth rank Darkbeast was truly too formidable, and these Darkbeasts frequently formed groups. However, an eight rank Darkbeast that was alone had appeared before them, and they were tempted by it. When it saw them charge at it, the Twin Wing Python seemed to be slightly furious. Its jade green eyes emanated a ferocious glow while its large wings suddenly flapped towards the grounds. A gale of strong wind instantly sprayed out and enveloped down towards the three of them that were led by Man’zi.
