The Thousand Serpent Vein Valley was one of the Blood Vessel regions, a place where the natural flow of Blood Qi had mutated the terrain into something dangerous even for seasoned cultivators. The valley was said to be filled with countless serpents, their numbers beyond estimation.
Some were ordinary beasts, while others had evolved under the influence of the environment, becoming creatures that even inner court disciples avoided. And that was where Daoist Snake Face lived.
Han Yu had never gone there himself, but he had heard enough accounts to understand what kind of place it was. For someone to call that valley home, to thrive within it, spoke volumes about their nature.
'He probably came directly from his mission or whatever he was doing outside the sect,' Han Yu thought.
It would explain the lack of entourage. Plus a man who chose to reside in such a place would not rely on followers in the same way others did.
Soon Daoist Snake Face reached the boundary of the array.
