Having lost both eyes, the Datura Snake was on the verge of going mad. She no longer wanted to eat Tang San, who had been shooting sneak attacks. She only wanted to devour Ye Yin, who kept endlessly blabbering. The Datura Snake had roamed the Soul Hunting Forest for hundreds of years, and this was the first time she had encountered such people. One person disturbed her with farts, another attacked with sneak arrows, and a third used verbal attacks. How could there be such insidious humans?
The Datura Snake thrashed about, smashing the surrounding tree trunks to pieces, leaving a mess. Seizing the opportunity, Tang San fired his last sleeve arrow. This time, it was again aimed at the Datura Snake's left eye.
"Swoosh!"
The intense pain made the Datura Snake howl continuously.
"Even if you can shoot arrows from your eyes, you shouldn't shoot two into the same spot."
Resentment from the Datura Snake +88!
Ye Yin clearly assessed the current situation. "Now that the Datura Snake has lost both her eyes, and the sleeve arrows have penetrated deeply, death is only a matter of time." As time passed, the Datura Snake's struggles grew weaker.
"A spirit ring of over four hundred years is quite good," Ye Yin said. "I'll take it then." Two white radishes appeared in his hand, and he began to attack the Datura Snake's body. "Bang!" A white radish struck the Datura Snake's body. "Stupid snake, come and attack me."
The damage was minimal, but the insult was immense. Several attacks with white radishes caused the dying Datura Snake to struggle once more. Forceful struggling would only make the Datura Snake die faster.
Finally, a yellow hundred-year spirit ring rose from the Datura Snake's body, definitively marking her death. With the Datura Snake dead, Yu Xiaogang gasped for air, the feeling of surviving a disaster continuously echoing within him. Although Ye Yin's mouth spoke no kind words, if not for Ye Yin, the Datura Snake would not have died this way. He suddenly felt that Ye Yin talking a bit more wasn't so bad. He just didn't know where the arrows that attacked the Datura Snake's eyes came from.
Ye Yin patted Tang San's shoulder. "Little San, we are truly amazing. Our cooperation was seamless!"
Tang San nodded reluctantly, gasping for breath, having truly exhausted his strength. "Grandmaster, didn't you say you would protect Little San and me? Why does it feel like Little San and I are protecting you?"
Yu Xiaogang raised his head, opened his mouth to retort, but didn't know what to say. He retracted his earlier evaluation of Ye Yin; it was better to say less. Those words were too hurtful!
Resentment from Yu Xiaogang +15!
Tang San cheered up and encouraged the Grandmaster, trying to gain Yu Xiaogang's favor so that he could fully become Yu Xiaogang's student in the future. "Grandmaster, your strength lies in theory; you are not skilled in combat."
Yu Xiaogang immediately nodded with satisfaction. As expected of my future student, he knows how to speak!
Ye Yin pondered for a moment. "So, other attack system Spirit Elders can only handle one hundred-year Spirit Beast?"
"This… that… you know…" Yu Xiaogang stammered.
Resentment from Yu Xiaogang +25!
"I don't know."
Resentment from Yu Xiaogang +26!
"Grandmaster, you've been poisoned!" Tang San suddenly pointed at Yu Xiaogang's arm. The exposed part of Yu Xiaogang's right sleeve was already purple, clearly indicating severe poisoning.
Seeing that he was poisoned, Yu Xiaogang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He was relieved. Thank goodness I was poisoned. I wouldn't have to endure Ye Yin's torment anymore!
But he soon realized he had thought too much. "Ye Yin, help me roll up my sleeve, cut open my arm with a dagger, and let out the poisoned blood." Yu Xiaogang took out another short sword from his storage Spirit tool bracelet.
Ye Yin patted his chest and guaranteed, "Grandmaster, just leave it to me."
Ye Yin tore open Yu Xiaogang's sleeve, aimed the short sword, and plunged it down.
"Ah!" A painful howl rang out.
"Grandmaster, bear with it. It's bound to hurt."
Yu Xiaogang was stunned. "I didn't cry out."
Resentment from Tang San +19!
Tang San's face was contorted. "I cried out! Why did you cry out?"
"You stabbed me! How could I not cry out?!"
Resentment from Tang San +20!
Only then did Ye Yin realize he had stabbed in the wrong place. "Sorry, Little San, this time, you stand far away." Ye Yin aimed again, and another stab went down.
"Ah!" Another painful howl came.
"Grandmaster, bear with it. It's bound to hurt."
Yu Xiaogang's expression was twisted. "I know it hurts, but my arm is poisoned! Why are you stabbing my butt?!"
Ye Yin chuckled. "A little knife to the butt, to open your eyes."
Resentment from Yu Xiaogang +16!
"I'll do it myself," Yu Xiaogang said, not daring to let Ye Yin operate anymore. He quickly took the knife and stabbed his own right arm. He then became still. Yu Xiaogang felt his consciousness fading; the poisoning had lasted too long. He fell to the ground with a thud.
"Huh? Grandmaster, why did you fall down and go to sleep? Are you not blood-thick, getting sleepy?"
Resentment from Yu Xiaogang +35!
I'm too deeply poisoned! Who gets sleepy from blood-thickness?! You… Yu Xiaogang's curses were cut short as he completely lost consciousness.
"Let me do it." Tang San's movements were very skilled. He swiftly cut open the poisoned area, and dark purple poisoned blood flowed out from the incision. After all the poisoned blood was released, Tang San tore off Yu Xiaogang's clothes to make strips to bandage the wound. Finally, he transferred some of his spirit power to Yu Xiaogang, using his internal energy to help Yu Xiaogang heal.
"I wonder when Grandmaster will wake up."
Ye Yin shook his head. "I don't know, probably a day or two. The Datura Snake's venom is so potent; it's already a great blessing to be alive. Little San, I'm going to try to absorb this spirit ring. You guard me."
Ye Yin sat cross-legged, his right hand open. Two smooth pearls, one white and one black, appeared, constantly swirling and rotating in his palm.
Tang San looked at Ye Yin in surprise, his eyes wide. "Huh? Ye Yin, I feel like your Spirit might have changed. I remember before there was only one white pearl. Now, how come there's an extra black pearl?"
Ye Yin's voice was calm. "It was always two pearls, one white and one black. You must have misremembered."
Black and white spirit power flowed from Ye Yin's body, drawing the Datura Snake's spirit ring closer. As the hundred-year Datura Snake's spirit ring approached, he felt an unprecedentedly powerful pressure; his entire skeleton even made slight cracking sounds under this pressure. The yellow spirit ring swiftly enveloped Ye Yin's Good and Evil Pearl. A scorching power rapidly invaded Ye Yin's body.
