"Taoist Zhang, it looks like you're as weak as you are playful. Rest and tend to your injuries, I'll handle this." Yu Longting appeared with a flash, standing in front of me and Zhang Shuying.
Zhang Shuying cautioned, "Be careful. Xuanjing is transforming into the Nine-tailed Fox, and with your cultivation damaged, I'm afraid..."
"Boosting others' morale while undermining one's own prestige," Yu Longting disdainfully interrupted.
From the wide sleeve of his robe, a pure white Giant Python suddenly emerged.
The python was as thick as a bowl, deceptively corpulent and bloated.
Yet in half a breath, it had struck near Xuanjing.
Xuanjing hastily retreated backward, his fox head's fur puffing up. "Snake Lord, have you gone mad?"
"The mad one isn't you, perhaps? Weak as you are, you still dare to conjure tricks in front of me, despite being beaten so many times. Haven't you learned your lesson yet, insisting on seeking death here?" Yu Longting's face bore a wicked smile as the pure white Giant Python aggressively chased after Xuanjing.
Having witnessed Yu Longting battle Qingyang with his Primordial Spirit before, my heart leaped to my throat as I tightly grasped the wide hem of his robe.
Xuanjing was right; Yu Longting was utterly insane.
When he went mad, even he was afraid of himself.
The injuries on his Primordial Spirit had just started to heal, yet here he was again, sacrificing it to fight to the death with someone.
But I... really couldn't stop him...
All I could do was fret!
"I'm seeking death? If the Lin Family hadn't taken my child, I wouldn't bother coming here! I will return today's grudge a hundredfold in the future." Xuanjing pulled the Hairpin from his hair, which transformed into a long sword and slashed towards the White Snake.
The moment the White Snake was repelled, the long sword also broke in half.
It all happened in the blink of an eye.
A dark mist flew out from Lin Gang's body, carrying the fetus and Su Qiang, and they escaped quickly.
The White Snake did not pursue the dark mist but instead pierced through Lin Gang's chest from behind.
Blood splattered out, leaving a huge bloody hole in Lin Gang's chest.
Yet the White Snake remained unstained with any blood!
"Gang! My Gang!" Yan Hua was the first to collapse to the ground in tears, her rage from witnessing her own son's death vented on me and Yu Longting. "Snake Lord! Su Wan! You two actually killed my boy! I, Yan Hua, swear not to coexist under the same sky as you! I will personally kill you and scatter your bodies into pieces!"
"Pfft—" Yu Longting arched his back, unable to control himself as he spat out a mouthful of blood, and the weak and slow pure white Giant Python crawled back and disappeared into his sleeve.
I grabbed Yu Longting as he staggered, glaring coldly at Yan Hua, "Lin Gang maligned Yu Longting, he deserved his death! If you seek revenge for your son, I, Su Wan, am always here. Yu Longting, I'll assist you back to my mother's Waterside Pavilion to rest. As long as I'm here, if anyone from the Lin Family dares to harm you, I will fight them with my life."

"Wanwan... you don't blame me? For killing... your uncle?"
Yu Longting, with a forced smile, spat out another mouthful of blood, his teeth stained red.
In his eyes, however, there was still an unstoppable arrogance.
"What uncle—he was nothing but a shameless villain. If you hadn't killed him, he'd surely have been a disaster."
I was almost beside myself with worry, tears flowing uncontrollably from my eyes. "Stop talking, let's discuss this after your wounds are healed. No matter what you say, I'll patiently listen."
"I can't hold this in... Wanwan... I love you..." Yu Longting leaned into my arms, the tall, graceful man now appearing fragile as he relied entirely on me, gently lifting his hand to wipe my tears.
"Granny, why wait for later to avenge? Yu Longting killed my father, and I want to kill him with my own hands now!"
A sickly-sweet voice echoed through the crowd. As everyone looked over in shock, my mother's inexplicably helpless voice also rang out, "Xin... Mei... let go of me, what are you doing to... your aunt..."
