Chapter 599: Chapter 568 Assistance, Essence of Water_1

The Snake King raised his head, somewhat bewildered, gazing at the starry sky.

However, his body hurt too much, and he wanted to rest for a while.

Just as the Snake King was about to come down, Huo Yingjie’s voice rang out.

"Open your mouth!" Huo Yingjie’s voice suddenly sounded in the Snake King’s ear.

The Snake King was startled, then promptly understood that Huo Yingjie was going to assist him.

"Tiantian, wait for me below and don’t go anywhere," Huo Yingjie said. "Little Rotating Turtle, take care of Tiantian."

"Yes, master!" Little Rotating Turtle nodded repeatedly, assuring that he could complete the task.

"Brother Yingjie, be careful, and you must ensure your safety," He Tiantian expressed with concern. The Snake King had successfully overcome the Heavenly Tribulation; next, it was Brother Yingjie’s turn.

Huo Yingjie turned his head, smiled, and said, "Don’t worry, just wait for me."

Huo Yingjie did not want He Tiantian to see him exceeding human capabilities, but if he didn’t let her see that the Snake King really had to leave, her little mind would definitely suspect him of killing the Little Spirit Snake.

Under the watchful eyes of He Tiantian and Little Rotating Turtle, Huo Yingjie leaped up into the sky, approaching the Snake King.

"Your energy uplift is rapid. I am going to tear space now; are you ready?" Huo Yingjie’s gaze was intense as he was finally about to send this troublesome Little Spirit Snake away.

The Snake King turned his head and saw He Tiantian, looking up at the sky.

He wanted to say farewell to He Tiantian, but after saying goodbye, he would have to part anyway. It was better to just leave—better to feel heartbroken just once.

"I am ready," the Snake King said with difficulty, about to leave the place he had stayed for six years.

In the Demon Realm, they lived for hundreds of years, with six years being nothing more than a flick of a finger, fleeting in an instant.

Yet, in the Human Realm, with each rising and setting sun, every day was different, full of excitement. Time was slow yet filled with trifles, life bustling yet fulfilling.

In the Snake King’s heart, the memories of so many years in the Demon Realm did not compare to these six years.

Huo Yingjie nodded. The Little Spirit Snake was self-aware, so he would not make it hard for him. Huo Yingjie then pinched out several spells and cast them towards the void.

Suddenly, near the direction Huo Yingjie indicated, ripples appeared in the sky much like those of water, emanating outward until a round hole emerged in the center.

Streams of Spiritual Energy surged from that hole into the Human Realm, wherein the trees and greenery from the void were faintly visible, lush and green, incomparable to the back mountain of Qijia Village in the Human Realm.

"You can go home now," Huo Yingjie said as if urging the Snake King.

The implicit meaning was clear—scram!

The Snake King felt the familiar aura; this was his homeland, and he could return.

Just before leaving, the Snake King turned to look at He Tiantian and Little Rotating Turtle one last time.

He Tiantian also saw the big hole, the Spatial Rift. If the Snake King passed through it, he could return home and reunite with his family.

Although He Tiantian was reluctant to let go, she understood the pain of missing one’s relatives and sincerely wished that the Snake King could reunite with his family soon.

He Tiantian waved her hand and said, "Snake King, have a safe journey. You are my best friend, and I will never forget you in my lifetime..."

Hearing these words, the Snake King smiled.

Even though his eyes were misty with tears at that moment, he was still happy that someone would remember him after he left.

Huo Yingjie slightly frowned when he heard He Tiantian’s words. He was still up there, and she was saying things like this. Was it appropriate?

"Aren’t you going to leave?" Huo Yingjie narrowed his eyes, "If you don’t leave now, you’ll never be able to leave!"

The Snake King chuckled, like a victor, then turned his head with two tear drops streaming from his eyes, crystal clear. Under the effect of the Snake King’s special technique, these two tears fell directly onto the palms of He Tiantian’s hands.

Afterward, the Snake King let out a loud roar that shook all directions, and with a flash, he leapt into the Spatial Rift.

The two teardrops merged into He Tiantian’s palm and disappeared, but He Tiantian could hear the Snake King’s final words before he departed.

"These two drops are the Essence of Water. I love water, and I hope that whenever you see water, you will remember me," said the Snake King softly, filled with a deep sense of reluctance to leave.

He Tiantian was startled and couldn’t help but shed tears herself.

The days she had spent living side by side with the Snake King flooded into her mind.

"Take care on your journey, Snake King," He Tiantian murmured softly, "and remember, in my heart, you will always be the adorable, tsundere, almighty Snake King!"

Huo Yingjie was annoyed. When tearing open a Spatial Rift, he couldn’t use any other spells, otherwise, he would have taught this Little Spirit Snake a lesson long ago.

As he watched the rift get smaller, Huo Yingjie released the spell, a cunning smile playing on his lips as he cast another spell into it.

Hehe, Little Spirit Snake, that’s for flirting with my wife just before you leave!

He Tiantian could see the beam of light from below and felt a surge of fear.

Suddenly, the ripples gathered and the sky returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.

Just at that moment, a light drizzle began to fall from the sky, moistening everything silently.

Huo Yingjie descended from the sky, his face expressionless, but his eyes twinkling with mirth.

"Brother Yingjie, what was that beam of light you fired off at the end?" He Tiantian asked anxiously. Her suspicions arose once again, worried that Brother Yingjie had bullied the Snake King.

I knew it would come to this!

Huo Yingjie took a deep breath, turned his head to look away, and calmed his mood before speaking, "I was giving him energy. This way, after he returns to the Demon Realm, he can fight valiantly in all directions!"

"Does he have to go on a killing spree?" He Tiantian was somewhat afraid, worried that the Snake King would be bullied when he returned to the Demon Realm.

A snake that wanders the martial world is bound to get sliced.

The Snake King has spent his days killing other demons; it’s only a matter of time before other demons come for his head!

"It’s their destiny. If they don’t kill other demons, they’ll be killed by other demons," Huo Yingjie said. "Don’t worry, I’ve given him a huge amount of energy. The Spirit Snake Inheritance in his mind has also been activated, and he definitely will be safe."

He wasn’t lying. The beam he had sent was the energy given to the Snake King, but at the same time, he had done something terrible: he had sent the Little Spirit Snake straight into a nest of the Black Bear Demon family, ensuring that upon his return, he would be attacked by his enemies.

Hehe, you think you’re so great, Little Spirit Snake!

Then have a good fight with your sworn enemy, the Black Bear Demon family!

Huo Yingjie hadn’t gone too far, though. With the energy he provided, the Little Spirit Snake could defeat the Black Bear Demon family, which was also a way of repaying his wife’s benefactor.

He Tiantian thought to herself and then looked up at the sky. The Snake King had already returned; she was just an ordinary human. What could she do, even if she was worried? All she could do was bless the Snake King in her heart, wishing him a smooth journey and safety.

"Oh, I hope so," He Tiantian nodded, looking around at the now cool pool. The sour jujube tree nearby, due to the decrease in temperature here, appeared listless, and the small sour jujubes it bore had also withered.
