Nie Heng's face looked a little cold. In the direction he looked, a half-large python was hidden among a lot of rocks.
Seeing that Nie Heng looked bad, She Shiyun quickly introduced him.
"That's my adopted brother... At the very beginning, he was both afraid of and pitiful towards me, and then he tried to get closer to me little by little, and brought me some delicious food from time to time!"
"After that, I helped it improve some strength, making it reach the level of Dan Dynasty, and gained the ability to transform into human form in a short period of time!"
"But not long ago, it went out with three companions, and when they came back, only it was left. The other three companions were all dead..."
"Although its strength has declined now, its intelligence is still there. It must have guessed that I was about to leave but couldn't take it with me, so it wanted to see me off!"
"But it's okay. I will sue all the monsters in the Zigu Mountains. After I leave, all the monsters in the Zigu Mountains will obey its orders! My sworn brother's life... won't be difficult!"
Turns out he is She Shiyun’s foster brother?
Only now did Nie Heng know the identity of the half-large python.
But in his heart, he has long determined this guy's other identity - the demon assassin!
When he was reborn, it was four demon warriors who tried to kill him and Nie Ling. If eight people from Thirteen Shadows hadn't arrived in time, he and Nie Ling would have died long ago.
Fortunately, eight shadow warriors arrived in time. They killed the three assassins and saved Nie Heng and Nie Ling.
Only one demon assassin who had reached the peak strength of Dan Dong Second Realm still escaped after being seriously injured.
Now that it was confirmed that the half-large python was the assassin who escaped at that time, Nie Heng suddenly realized: Among the four monster assassins at that time, this guy was the weakest, but the other three assassins actually risked their lives to help him escape...
It turns out that he has a very high status!
It turned out to be because he had a sworn sister named She Shiyun!
Now looking at the big python, Nie Heng said solemnly: "I want a drop of his blood essence!"
"Why?"
She asked instinctively, but She Shiyun still turned her head and looked in that direction, then waved her hand gently and immediately took a drop of blood from the body of the python.
After receiving this drop of blood essence, Nie Heng concentrated on using his soul power and immediately used the magical power from his previous life - the art of reading blood.
As he used the art of reading blood, he saw countless scenes, heard countless conversations, and saw several people he was familiar with - the Xiang family's patriarch and several elders.
When the blood-reading technique ended, Nie Heng's expression turned extremely cold.
It turns out that in addition to assassinating Nie Heng and Nie Ling, the Xiang family actually did so many insidious and cruel things.
And not long after, this python will lead a tide of beasts to help the Xiang family achieve their greater ambitions...
Knowing all this, Nie Heng said coldly: "She Shiyun, I want it to obey my orders from now on!"
"This..." After a slight hesitation, She Shiyun nodded: "Okay!"
"good!"
After receiving such an answer, Nie Heng took out the Soul Gathering Bell and used a secret method to incorporate the essence and blood of the python into it.
"If there is a chance, I will help it transform into a snake and become a dragon! But before that, I want him to obey my orders, truly and completely obey my orders, including all the purple valley monsters he can control!"
Hearing this, she was immediately overjoyed. She Shiyun's eyes immediately widened: Nie Heng would actually help his sworn brother to turn a snake into a dragon...
What kind of incredible opportunity will this be?
Thinking of this, she quickly flashed and appeared beside the pile of rocks not far away.
She had a conversation with the big boa in a special way. After that, the boa seemed very excited, wagging its tail and smashing many rocks around!
…
At the same time, within Xuanjian Sect, a storm was brewing quietly.
In the meeting hall of the Baili Family, a few powerful family members gathered together with different expressions on their faces.
"Patriarch, do we really want to help the Xiang family this time? But Sect Master Nie has always been upright and selfless. How could we do something like that to him when he left?"
An elder looked solemn and looked a bit sad: "What's more, once the Xiang family takes action and we help them, a civil war is probably inevitable!"
"Yes, patriarch..."
Hearing this, another elder of the Baili Family said in a deep voice: "Once the Xiang family takes action, they will definitely take advantage of the Nie family's weakness and kill them all! In that case, how can we be worthy of the Nie family who have served our clan for generations?
The sect leaders who died in the battle?"
Listening and watching, a burly man at the front of the hall was silent.
He is Baili Wuxin, the father of Bailiyi and the patriarch of the Baili family.
Before he could speak, another lean old man spoke: "Fifth brother, seventh brother, you can't be so kind to women at this time!"
After saying that, he stood up, walked to Baili Wuxin, clasped his fists and said: "Clan leader, if we don't cooperate with the Xiang family this time, with the strength of the Xiang family, what if he comes to deal with our Baili family first?
good?"
"Yes, third brother is right!"
At this time, another old man came forward, stroked his beard and said: "Don't forget, the Xiang family is behind the care of the royal family! If we don't cooperate, once the royal family takes action, we will probably suffer."
"Why……"
Until this time, Baili Wuxin sighed and said: "Let's see...if there is no news from the sect master within a month, we may...have no choice but to protect ourselves first!"
Hearing what he said, the two elders who had previously advised them not to help the Xiang family immediately stood up.
"Chief, are you going to betray your promise?"
"Yes, Patriarch, have you forgotten that our Baili Yi still has a marriage contract with Sect Leader Nie Hengshao?"
Looking at them, the third elder smiled coldly: "Nie Heng has become a waste. Are you planning to give the beloved daughter of our family to a waste?"
"this……"
"Why……"
…
Almost at the same time, at the entrance of a valley called Peach Blossom Valley, among a large area of splendid buildings, a seven-story building stood out the most.
This is where the Xiang family's meeting hall is located.
"I didn't expect that Nie Tianyang has been secretly training many masters for so many years...such as the damn Thirteen Shadows!"
In the hall, a slightly fat man sighed: "According to what Tang Yuan said earlier, the strength of those guys has recovered incredibly! And there are five other guys, and even Tang Yuan doesn't know about them.
The specific whereabouts..."
Next to him, another person sighed: "If it hadn't been for the eight people from the Thirteen Shadows who took action, Nie Heng and his brother would have died long ago!"
Hearing this, another old man said: "So what, even if many of them have reached the martial arts realm according to what Tang Yuan said, such warriors do not pose much of a threat to our Xiang family!"
"Well..." nodded, and a burly man sitting directly in front of him said: "It's a pity that Tang Yuan was killed! Otherwise, we could dig out all the confidants Nie Tianyang secretly cultivated.
come out!"
"What are you afraid of!"
Below, a woman in her forties smiled coldly and said: "Anyway, the Baili Family should not dare to help the Nie family, and no one in the Nie family has the strength to compete for the position of acting sect leader! When the time comes..."
Before she could finish speaking, the man at the front smiled sadly: "At that time, the Xuanjian Sect will be the Xuanjian Sect of my Xiang family. As for the Nie family's spiritual mineral veins, they will be attacked by the beast tide! Eventually
...will still be taken back by my Xiang family, hahaha..."
"This is the best. We didn't steal the Nie family's spiritual mineral veins, but took them back from the monsters! As for those lowly and stupid monsters in the Zigu Mountains, just give them some spiritual stones and get rid of them!"
"Yeah, if the Baili Family is obedient then, forget it! Otherwise, if we kill them all in one go, what's the point? Hahaha..."
…
On the other side, Nie Heng followed She Shiyun to the bottom of a deep pool, where he got a lot of good things that She Shiyun had sent her servants to collect and plunder over the past three hundred years.
After getting these things, Nie Heng thought of something and spent several days refining dozens of spell scrolls!
These scrolls are not teleportation scrolls, but rune scrolls with powerful defense, called "Drag and Earth Curse"!
In addition, he refined dozens of new elixirs, divided into two types.
One is called Fu Yuan Dan, and the other is called Wu Wang Ning Ling Dan!
In addition to the more than 20 Tongtian Pills and three Zun-breaking Pills that he had refined before, as well as the Body Tempering Pill and the Yuan Ning Yuan Pill, Nie Heng already had several good pills.
As for antidote or aura-concealing elixirs used in disguise, Nie Heng also had quite a few.
Then with the help of She Shiyun's control, Nie Heng spent a few days in the Zigu Mountains and arranged some things.
After doing all this, he gave She Shiyun a pill that could help her hide the aura of the demon clan, and took her back to the Xuanjian Sect without stopping in the starry night!
