136: Chapter 136 Green Snake Wants to Settle Accounts Later

"Xuan... Junior Sister Xuanji!"

Profound Heart's beard trembled in fear.

Under the pressure of a Soul Transformation cultivator, everyone stopped fighting, not daring to breathe.

"Daya, Daya!!"

"My dear Daya!!"

"Daya, it's him, it's him, he's the one who wanted to harm me! My Xiliang Sword, my heaven-accepting gourd, my treasures are all gone!!"

Xu Qing felt greatly relieved.

Having clung to such a powerful thigh, everything was worth it!

From now on, he could walk sideways or roll along; in this Cultivation World, he could walk however he pleased!

"...Junior Sister, let me explain!"

"I..."

"Don't speak. Listen."

"...Listen to what?"

"Listen to the sound of your bones breaking."

*Crack.*

In the next second, every bone in Profound Heart's body shattered, and he collapsed into a limp heap.

Then, Daya pointed at Profound Heart.

A golden jade tablet separated from the slumped Profound Heart.

Inscribed on the jade tablet was...

[Nascent Soul-36]

"My Dao Cultivation, my culti...vation..."

Profound Heart's Dao Cultivation of nearly three thousand years was stripped away. His entire body withered and shriveled like an old tree root.

Then, Daya formed hand seals.

All three thousand years of Profound Heart's hard-earned Dao Cultivation turned into golden light and separated from the jade tablet, which then turned into pure, flawless white jade.

"Go."

Daya extended a finger and pointed at the heaven-accepting gourd, which was battered from the Lightning Tribulation.

The golden light merged into the heaven-accepting gourd, stabilizing its crumbling body.

The Lightning Tribulation continued to strike the heaven-accepting gourd, but it could no longer cause any damage.

"Here, stop shouting."

Like handing a pacifier to a crying child, Daya tossed the jade tablet to Xu Qing.

[Nascent Soul-36]

nascent soul imprint.

"We... pay our respects to the Grand Elder."

The remaining people felt a chill run down their spines and bowed to Daya one after another.

Daya ignored them.

She descended, walked over to the unconscious Elder Li, and gently picked her up by the waist.

"Xiao Mo, wake up."

Her jade-like hand gently brushed across Elder Li's forehead.

The latter's eyelids twitched slightly as she slowly woke up.

Upon seeing Daya, she was first stunned, then her eyes shimmered with tears, and then she bit her lip, struggling out of the embrace.

"Who... who is Xiao Mo!"

"If that Green Snake hadn't begged and pleaded, who would have come to save you?"

Just as Xu Qing was about to retort, he was glared back into silence.

He could only hold the jade tablet and obediently shut his mouth.

Damn it, he couldn't beat either the granddaughter or the daughter. How aggravating.

"I'm perfectly happy being the Grand Elder of the Xuanyun Sect."

"Who would come specifically to save you? Don't flatter yourself!"

"Hmph!"

Daya said nothing and just sighed.

"A tsundere, a textbook tsundere. Just a mere mommy's girl."

Xu Qing muttered to himself.

Daya turned around and looked at the group of Nascent Soul Cultivators.

The latter were trembling with fear.

"Except for Profound Heart, Mysterious Method, and Mysterious Spirit, the rest of you were unaware. This Elder will not pursue today's matter further."

"The Elder is wise!"

The Nascent Soul Cultivators all breathed a sigh of relief.

They truly had believed that Daya had passed away. Although they occasionally found the sudden passing suspicious, they didn't dare question it.

"As for Mysterious Method and Mysterious Spirit..."

Daya's gaze fell upon the two.

"Considering we are from the same Sect and are fellow disciples..."

"I will place a restriction curse on you. If you ever dare to commit such a treasonous act again..."

"The curse will kill you by devouring your heart. Profound Heart's end today will be yours."

"...Senior Sister is wise."

Although Mysterious Method and Mysterious Spirit felt extremely bitter, under the current circumstances, being able to keep their lives was already good enough.

They also understood that Daya wasn't doing this for them, but for the sake of the Xia Dynasty.

As a top-tier Sect of the Xia Dynasty, if the Xuanji Sect's top-tier strength were to be severely diminished, the consequences would be quite serious.

"Daya, it's her! She wanted to use the Green Snake to perform Alchemy."

"She chased me for miles; the Green Snake almost didn't get to see you again!"

Xu Qing pointed at Mysterious Spirit and continued to tattle. He knew this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

He had to cherish it and squeeze out as much as possible. He was a thrifty and home-oriented Snake Snake, after all.

"Is that so? You wanted to use my family's snake for Alchemy, Junior Sister Mysterious Spirit?"

Daya looked at the beautiful woman.

The latter's body immediately trembled as she prostrated herself on the ground.

"Senior Sister, I am willing to compensate this Green Snake sister!"

With Profound Heart as a warning right before her, Mysterious Spirit didn't dare to provoke this Junior Sister's wrath in the slightest.

She quickly pulled out a Storage Pouch, thinking she was going to have to pay a heavy price.

Xu Qing was quick-eyed and nimble-handed, snatching the entire Storage Pouch away.

"...So generous! To think you'd give me so many treasures!"

He opened the Storage Pouch to take a look.

There were countless rare treasures, enough to make up for a portion of his previous losses.

"...As long as Green Snake sister likes it."

"Who's your sister? I'm your Lord Green Snake!"

Having leaned on such a powerful backer, Xu Qing had floated to unprecedented heights.

He was now very, very arrogant!

At this moment, the Min River God was floating not far away, scratching his tail rather awkwardly.

Damn it, I was just sleeping at the bottom of the river and wanted to show my face to the Xuanji Sect when I saw what was happening.

As it turns out... the situation is completely beyond expectations!

Daya's gaze finally landed on the Min River God.

The latter felt a chill all over his body, as if his scales were about to stand on end.

“Min River God, Jiang Mo, pays respects to the Elder.”

How could the River God dare to maintain his snake form? He transformed into a human and bowed to Daya.

His human form had black hair and black eyes, wore black robes, and looked dignified with a scholarly air; one couldn't tell his true form was a black snake that was half-jiao.

"I want a hundred years of favorable weather and smooth sailing around the Min River."

Daya stood with her hands behind her back and gave the order.

"I obey the Elder's decree."

Jiang Mo felt bitter inside, but he could only comply.

Ensuring favorable weather wasn't just talk; it required real action.

For the next hundred years, he probably wouldn't be able to cultivate properly.

However, his cultivation of incense Power Of Will would surely soar. It was hard to say whether it was a blessing or a curse.

But as a black snake, he just wanted to lie at the bottom of the river and sleep!

What kind of decent snake would fucking work? Isn't sleeping better!

"amitabha..."

Silent Severity wanted to step forward to make himself known.

He had achieved a great feat! He had to linger in front of the Senior more often. amitabha.

"Hmph, you bald donkey from the Bodhi Temple actually dared to interfere in the affairs of my Xia Dynasty. What audacity!"

"See if I don't..."

"?"

Daya had also just woken up.

She could only infer what had happened from the scene.

She didn't know this monk. Why would he come to help her? He must have been invited by the other side!

He deserved a beating.

"Wait, Daya, wait!"

Seeing this, Xu Qing hurriedly explained to Daya.

Yet, the latter's face showed not a hint of emotion.

As expected of a Soul Transformation cultivator, her skin was as thick as a Soul Transformation cultivator's should be!

"..."

Silence for a moment.

"...Master Silent Severity has profound virtue, and the Bodhi Temple's Buddhist teachings are deep. Seeing such an accomplished monk as Silent Severity today, you are indeed extraordinary."

"This Elder will certainly go to the Bodhi Temple to express my thanks another day."

"A-amitabha."

"There is no need for such politeness, benefactor."

Silent Severity wiped the sweat from his forehead.

The intense battle from before wasn't nearly as terrifying as that single moment just now.
