208: Black Snake Ancestor

Snake Clan.

In a cave dwelling, mist permeated the air, occasionally flickering with strands of black light.

Mo Ling walked into the cave dwelling.

He took a deep breath, his face full of enjoyment. This cave dwelling was truly the most suitable place for their Black Snake Clan.

And just at this moment.

A pair of scarlet snake eyes opened. The next moment, the mist in the cave dwelling instantly vanished.

Amidst the flickering light, a black-robed old man appeared before Mo Ling.

"Mo Ling pays respects to Ancestor."

This old man was precisely the Black Snake Old Ancestor, an Immortal expert.

One of the five great Immortal Dao of the Snake Clan.

The old man sat cross-legged on the ground, looking at Mo Ling indifferently, his voice ancient:

"Speak, why are you looking for this old man?"

"Your descendant wishes to ask Ancestor to come out of seclusion and help your descendant seize the position of Snake Clan Leader."

Mo Ling said respectfully.

Hearing this, the Black Snake Old Ancestor furrowed his brow:

"What? The poison this old man gave you didn't cripple that royal Bloodline of the Purple Scale Snake Clan?"

"At first, it was effective."

Mo Ling secretly glanced at the Black Snake Old Ancestor. After all, it was the poison provided by Ancestor, yet it was deciphered by the other party. He must feel a bit embarrassed, right?

"What about later?"

"Later..."

Mo Ling coughed dryly and said softly:

"Later, she used some method unknown to me to decipher Ancestor's poison."

The Black Snake Old Ancestor's face sank.

Mo Ling quickly lowered his head. Indeed, Ancestor must be feeling a bit humiliated.

Back then, Ancestor was very confident.

He said that no one in the entire Qingyun Heaven could decipher this Bloodline poison. At that time, Mo Ling was already a bit suspicious.

Look, sure enough.

It was deciphered, wasn't it?

When speaking, one really shouldn't speak too confidently.

Mo Ling learned a lesson. In the future, he absolutely couldn't be like the Black Snake Old Ancestor.

"Who deciphered it?"

The Black Snake Old Ancestor's voice became much colder.

Mo Ling's eyes flickered:

"According to your descendant's investigation, the one who deciphered the Bloodline poison is a human brat.

Oh, right, he's a Supreme Realm expert."

Black Snake Old Ancestor: "..."

He looked at Mo Ling, always feeling that this junior was deliberately trying to embarrass him.

He even specifically emphasized that a Supreme Realm expert deciphered his poison.

Snorting coldly, the Black Snake Old Ancestor stared at Mo Ling:

"Just a Supreme, and you're asking this old man for help?"

"Cough cough, actually, beside that Supreme, there are also three Immortals."

"What?"

The Black Snake Old Ancestor was startled, his aura trembling slightly:

"Three Immortals? Are you sure?"

"Sure."

Mo Ling nodded.

The Black Snake Old Ancestor's eyes narrowed:

"Looking at it this way, this Bloodline poison was deciphered by those three Immortals.

However..."

He looked at Mo Ling, his voice cold:

"You're asking this old man for help to deal with three Immortals? Are you trying to send this old man to his death?"

Mo Ling: "..."

The Black Snake Old Ancestor's bluntness almost left Mo Ling speechless.

"Don't we, the Snake Clan, still have four Immortals?"

He said.

The Black Snake Old Ancestor sneered:

"Why would they help you?

Since the Purple Scale Snake Clan can obtain the help of three Immortals, it shows their capability. Letting the Purple Scale Snake Clan rise and befriending the three Immortals wouldn't that be a better decision?"

As he spoke, a hint of sinister gloom flashed in his eyes. The other four Immortals would definitely support the Purple Scale Snake Clan, but he...

Had poisoned the Purple Scale Snake Clan Leader.

If those three Immortals had a deep enough relationship with the Purple Scale Snake Clan, they might target him.

Thinking of this, he looked coldly at Mo Ling. If he had known this, he shouldn't have interfered in this matter.

It was just a Clan Leader position, it didn't help him much anyway.

It's just that now, it's too late to regret.

Looking at Mo Ling, he frowned and said:

"You should understand our Snake Clan. Could it be that you have a way to make them act?"

"Hehe..."

Mo Ling chuckled and said:

"Ancestor, among those three Immortals, one is a Devil Path expert.

A Great Devil interfering in our Snake Clan's internal affairs for no reason, I'm afraid he has some ulterior motive."

...

Purple Scale Snake Clan.

After a period of recuperation, the Purple Scale Snake Clan recovered somewhat. At least, the injuries the various experts had sustained earlier had completely healed.

The competition for the Clan Leader position was about to restart.

And the only ones with competitiveness were the Black Snake Clan and the Purple Scale Snake Clan. Other snake races were now lying low, not daring to show their heads.

They were observing.

Whoever gained the advantage, they would support.

Therefore, in the end, this was a struggle between the Black Snake Clan and the Purple Scale Snake Clan.

"How is your Snake Clan Leader elected?"

Qin Jiang asked curiously.

Beside him, Yu Lan explained:

"The entire Snake Clan has over a hundred types of clans. Each clan holds voting rights. The competition for the Clan Leader will last for a year. By then, whichever clan receives the most votes will obtain the position of Clan Leader."

"Voting?"

"Yes.

This can avoid overly fierce competition during the rotation of the Clan Leader, which could cause too much damage."

Hearing this, Qin Jiang curled his lips:

"This method doesn't seem to have much effect, does it?"

If it weren't for him, the entire Purple Scale Snake Clan would probably have been annihilated.

Is this competition not fierce?

Yu Lan smiled bitterly and said:

"Indeed, it doesn't have much effect.

However, if the five Ancestors of the Snake Clan come forward, they can directly decide the position of Clan Leader.

The previous Clan Leader was jointly recommended by three of the Ancestors."

"Oh? Why haven't they shown up this time?"

"The previous Clan Leader had extraordinary talent. From the day of her birth, she possessed the royal Bloodline. Later, she was personally taught by the Ancestors. After suddenly becoming a Great Emperor, she took on the role of Snake Clan Leader.

Now, after only a thousand years, she has begun to attempt to break through to the Immortal Dao.

To be honest, the previous Clan Leader is still my junior."

A thousand years, from Great Emperor to Immortal, this talent is indeed outstanding.

After all, not everyone has a cheat.

Qin Jiang sighed emotionally, grabbed Yu Lan's small hand, and said:

"Lan Lan is no worse than her. If she can be the Clan Leader, my Lan Lan naturally can too.

With me here, a mere Black Snake Clan is not worth mentioning."

"I'm even better looking than her~"

Yu Lan blinked playfully and leaned into Qin Jiang's embrace.

And Qin Jiang, upon hearing this, couldn't help but be startled:

"The previous Clan Leader was a girl?"

"Yes."

Yu Lan nodded:

"Got any ideas?"

"Cough cough, for such a favored daughter of heaven, I really do want to get acquainted."

Qin Jiang coughed dryly.

Hearing this, Yu Lan rolled her eyes at him. She was gradually understanding Qin Jiang's personality.

If the previous Clan Leader were seen by him, he would definitely try every possible means to get her.

"Stop thinking about it. She's in seclusion. She definitely won't come out in a short period of time."

Yu Lan said.

Breaking through to the Immortal Dao requires quite a bit of time. Even with Immortal Dao Law and time acceleration, Yan Shiya still took over ten years.

If relying solely on strength to break through, several hundred years is a very normal situation.

Qin Jiang also felt a bit regretful.

Several hundred years, he couldn't wait that long.

He lowered his head to look at Yu Lan. Her lively beautiful eyes clearly showed that she was doing it on purpose.

Making Qin Jiang's heart itch.

Qin Jiang's lips curled up. He tightly hugged Yu Lan. When it came to scratching the itch, he would need her.
