After a moment of silence, she pinched the tail of the snake, wrapped it around her hand a few times, and held it in her hand.
Xiao Hua was so shocked that her spine turned cold.
"Host, you’re using this creature as a long whip?"
Su Yan murmured softly,
"I don’t know how to use a whip, but Little Red can bite on its own."
No need for her to control it; wherever it catches, it bites, and one bite will be deadly.
Yes, it’s very convenient.
After listening for a long time, Xiao Hua was puzzled,
"Little Red? Is this poisonous snake called Little Red?"
"Yes,"
"Did you come up with it, Host?"
"Yes, we’ve seen each other several times now; it should have a name."
"But, but..."
Xiao Hua hesitated for a long time, but ultimately didn’t speak out.
The name Little Red... It sounds somewhat foolish.
On reflection, its own name, Xiao Hua, sounds prettier.
Originally, it was called System 210.
After the Host renamed it amongst Xiao Hei, Xiao Hua, and Shi Tou, it was lucky to get such a cute name as Xiao Hua~.
While they were talking, Su Yan had already pulled Comrade Little Red by the tail up to the high platform.
Ouyang Ling was riding on the White Tiger, arms crossed.
"After hesitating for so long, you still chose the long whip."
Su Yan remained silent, and in the dark shadows unreachable by the firelight, Little Red’s snake head hid motionless.
Nobody would think it was a snake, let alone a poisonous one.
After a long stare, Ouyang Ling’s foot swung in mid-air, making tinkling sounds.
The pleasing sound of golden bells; her mount, Fierce Tiger, roared toward the sky, then dashed towards Su Yan.
Su Yan turned to dodge, occasionally waving Little Red in her hand.
You should know, Little Red is a snake, not a whip. Waving it is not only heavy but also lacks force.
So, it looked soft and mushy, just like a long piece of dough.
How could it possibly strike the White Tiger?
What everyone originally anticipated as an exciting duel, in a blink of an eye, turned into Su Yan running around constantly.
The sight of the White Tiger and Ouyang Ling chasing after her.
Xuanyuan Yonghao squinted his dark eyes.
His tone was gentle,
"Nantang"
"Your Highness"
"Is that a whip?"
"It’s not,"
Nantang firmly denied.
"What is it, then?"
"I couldn’t recognize it either. Your Highness... could someone be deliberately trying to harm Miss Su Yan?"
Xuanyuan Yonghao gazed at the object in Su Yan’s hand, feeling somewhat familiar.
When Su Yan raised the ’long whip’ again, this time waving it under the illumination, it flashed quickly.
But the stout and flat snake head, with its intertwining red and black patterns, made Xuanyuan Yonghao raise an eyebrow.
He had lived for so long, yet this was the first time he knew, poison snakes could be used in such a way.
The smile on his lips almost couldn’t be suppressed.
Nantang spoke out,
"Should I go and intervene?"
"No need, just watch."
Seeing that Your Highness was not in a hurry, Nantang didn’t press on.
Just as Your Highness was about to pick up the white jade wine cup, Nantang spoke out to stop him,
"Your Highness"
Xuanyuan Yonghao looked up at him.
Nantang shook his head sternly, his gaze fixed on the wine cup.
The meaning was clear, there might be poison in the wine.
Xuanyuan Yonghao lowered his gaze for a moment,
"What could it be?"
"Unknown, but the Shadow Guard reported seeing the Witch Ancestor. It might be a deadly poison, or a Gu Worm that causes a fate worse than death."
He set the wine cup aside, watching the ongoing tangled fight on the high platform, and smiled.
"I’ll get you another drink."
"No need,"
His fingertips tapped on the table top, pensively.
