eat deal of authority.All personnel appointments at the entire Xiangtai Company are solely within Li Long's control, with only Vice President Li Hongliang being sent from headquarters.Since she fired...The venomous snake stood upright in the water pool, its upper body rising out of the water. Its two eyes, like light bulbs, glinted with disdain.

The bald man's hand wielded a flamethrower, spewing bullets that rained down on the serpent. However, every shot was deflected by its scales, inflicting no damage whatsoever.

"Holy crap, what kind of monster is this It can't even be pierced by bullets."

The bearded man raised his gun in his hand, "Shoot its eyes!"

Just as he finished shouting, the yin snake's water-bucket thick tail shot out of the water, whistling through the air towards him.

Fortunately, the bearded man was also quite skilled. He leaped directly out of the way, dodging the attack mid-air. He pulled the trigger in his hand and fired another volley of fire.

However, having reached the level of a demonic beast, the yin snake already possessed intelligence. This crafty creature skillfully dodged his eyes, and bullets fired at it bounced off its scales with a shower of sparks, causing no damage whatsoever.

The man with the beard was also extremely ferocious. Seeing that the firearm in his hand was ineffective, he simply threw it to the ground. He drew a sharp dagger from his back waist and leaped toward the venomous snake.

But this enraged the cobra, who opened its maw wide at the old man, a stench of rot emanating from it.

As a disciple of the Yinji sect, he still had some abilities. He jumped twice and came under the Yin Snake, raising his sword and stabbing fiercely at its abdomen.

"Ding..."

The razor-sharp dagger was imbued with inner strength, capable of piercing even steel plates. However, when it struck the serpent's scales, it produced only a metallic *ding*, leaving no mark whatsoever.

"How is this possible"

A flicker of astonishment crossed the bearded man's face. He hadn't expected this serpent to possess such formidable defenses, even its most vulnerable belly had reached this level of protection.

Angered by the relentless attacks, the venomous snake lashed out with its tail once more.

Although the man with a big beard reacted quickly and leaped backward, he was still grazed by the snake's tail.

The giant snake was thick and heavy, its tail even harder than steel. After being struck, the big-bearded man flew out like a broken doll.

A series of sickening cracks echoed from his body, as if bones and organs were being shattered within.

The old man with a beard lay on the grass, still as death, not breathing.

"Second Senior Brother."

Yin Sanniang was startled. Although she had seen this Yin snake before, she didn't know it was so powerful. "Damn bastard, I'll blow you to pieces."

At this moment, the bald man snatched up a bomb and lit the fuse. Then he jumped and threw himself into the giant snake's gaping maw.

As the eldest disciple of the Yinji Sect, he naturally had his own mind.

I think even if this venomous snake has strong defenses on the outside, its insides must be vulnerable. As long as we throw explosives inside, we'll definitely be able to kill this beast.

However, he still underestimated the Yin Snake. This creature had already reached the level of a demon beast; it wasn't something that could be easily dealt with.

The fuse of the explosive package flared and flew forward, the yin snake seemed to sense the danger of this thing, its mouth opened, spitting out a gray mist from within.

As soon as this sinister energy emerged, the surrounding air seemed to drop several degrees instantly, feeling like being plunged into an ice cave.

The dynamite was hit by the yin energy, instantly turning into a block of ice. The fuse, burning with firelight, also went out and then plopped into the pond with a splash.

"Ah!"

The bald man let out a cry of surprise, never expecting such a result. Seeing the venomous snake's prowess to this extent, he turned his head to run, but it was too late.

The enraged Yin Snake spat out another jet of dark energy, and the bald man, while still in a running posture, was frozen in place, becoming an ice sculpture.

It all happened in the blink of an eye, though it sounded complicated. By the time Yin Siniang came to her senses, both Da Huzi and Guangtou had become corpses.

She let out a scream, realizing things were bad. She no longer cared about the Xuan Yin Jujube and the two corpses, she turned and ran away.

The enraged viper, much faster than her, lunged forward suddenly. A massive serpent tongue shot from its mouth, whipping out like a lash and flinging her into the gaping maw.

For all these, Ye Fan paid no attention. From the start of their fight, his focus had been on the Xuan Yin Zhu Guo.

Just as the venomous snake attacked the three people, the girl hiding in the grass seized the opportunity. Her body soared into the air like a swallow.

His toes touched the surface of the pond a few times before reaching the small cave at the foot of the mountain. He reached out to grab the five Xuan Yin Jujube fruits.

Ye Bufan had been quietly following behind, originally wanting to snatch a few fruits, but a sudden wave of intense danger swept over him, and he quickly went back into hiding.

Just then, the water churned and another massive snake head emerged from the pool. This one was even larger than the previous venomous serpent.

The body was as thick as a water jar, with emerald-green scales larger than an adult's palm. Its triangular serpent head bore eyes that glowed with eerie light, giving it a sinister appearance.

That means everyone got it wrong. It wasn't one yin snake guarding the Xuan Yin Zhu Guo, but two.

The venomous snake rose from the water and immediately opened its jaws, biting down viciously on the girl.

The appearance of this venomous serpent was clearly beyond the girl's expectations, and now she had no time to think about the Yin-Yang Zhu fruit.

His toes clung to the cliff face, his body sliding out at a perilous angle, narrowly escaping the serpent's gaping jaws.

She was very agile and swiftly fled down the mountainside towards the outside of the pool.

But the Yin Snake didn't let go of her. It whipped its huge tail out of the pond suddenly.

The Yin Snake's speed at the monster level was incredibly fast. Its big tail almost instantly arrived behind the girl, whipping against her back with a loud *bang*.

With that force, the girl was hit like a baseball flying through the air. Her head slammed against the mountain wall on the other side with a bang.

Although she did her best at the last moment to protect her head with a protective qi shield, barely avoiding a gruesome brain splatter, she still blacked out and slid down unconscious.

The venomous snake struck with a deadly accuracy, and in its surprisingly human-like eyes, a glint of satisfaction flashed.

Just then, it suddenly discovered that another dark shadow darted past the cave entrance, and three more of the mysterious red fruits were missing.

Of course it was Ye Bufan who made the move. He seized this fleeting opportunity and snatched away three Xuan Yin Zhu fruit.

Seeing his fruit, which he had guarded for many years, being picked by someone else, the Yin Snake suddenly became furious and spat out a very dense stream of Yin Qi.

Ye Bufan had just been watching for a long time, and he already knew the Yin Snake's attack methods pretty well.

Feeling a sense of danger behind him, he instantly stomped his feet twice and unleashed the Dragon Stepping Sky technique. His body forcefully shot upwards two or three meters, narrowly dodging the sinister qi that followed.

Then, like a shooting star, he slid out towards the pool. He was so fast that just as he reached the cliff face, the girl's body fell.

Although they were strangers, Ye Bufan couldn't bear to watch her perish. He reached out and grabbed her waist sash, fleeing together into the forest.

Two huge snakes, filled with rage, thrash their bodies wildly in the pond, creating gigantic waves.

However, considering there were still two Xuan Yin Zhu fruit left, fearing they might be lost again, he finally held back his anger and stayed behind instead of chasing after them. merit points on this card, I'll concede defeat immediately.""I..."Feng Tianxiang was immediately speechless. He didn't have the ability to do that.This medal of merit is incredibly well-crafted. Not...
