Chapter 284: Chapter 284: One Fox Against Hundreds of Human-faced Snakes, Tragic and Cruel

Qin Ruan fixated on the swelling in the abdomen of the humanoid-faced snake. Beside it, the shadow belonging to Rong Jing was almost disappearing into the ground.

Her face was dark and her eyes glowed with an icy chill.

It was evident that Rong Jing was swallowed by the humanoid snake, and was in a life-threatening situation.

"Swish!"

The Golden Whip was swung, landing just in front of the snake that was lying on the ground.

This action was a warning to the creature.

With things unsettled between her and Rong Jing, he couldn’t die yet!

Qin Ruan’s voice was harsh, "Spit him out, and I will spare your life!"

"Hiss Hiss Hiss!!!"

The humanoid-faced snake was not intimidated by her. The death of its companion only fueled its hatred towards Qin Ruan.

Huo Chuan looked on, his entire worldview shaken.

What unfolded next was even more shocking.

Just as the humanoid-faced snake prepared to attack, Qin Ruan brutally thrashed it in the abdomen with her Golden Whip.

The whip shone brightly, harnessing immense Nether Power.

This time, Qin Ruan used all her strength.

"Swish!" The whip sounded.

"Hiss Hiss Hiss!!!"

Clearly in pain, the snake fell onto the ground. A nearly three-foot-long wound was carved out from its belly by the Golden Whip, and it hissed angrily.

A more overpowering stench of blood filled the room.

The snake writhed on the ground, and from its belly emerged a scrawny, blood-soaked figure.

"Ugh!"

The figure crawled out of the snake’s belly, retching onto the floor.

"Ugh! Cough, cough, cough! Ugh..."

Panting and retching, he appeared to want to vomit everything inside him.

This shadowy figure... it was Rong Jing.

As he breathed in the foul air, he felt as though he had taken several turns at the Ghost Gate.

Rong Jing collapsed onto the floor. His entire body was covered with the bloody, grotesque filth he had acquired from the snake’s belly.

"Rong Jing?"

Qin Ruan frowned at the grotesque, blood-covered... creature sprawled on the ground.

Wiping his slime-covered face, the smell of blood and guts grew stronger.

Despite his wretched state, he looked up at Qin Ruan, who stood not too far away. His tear-filled eyes were lit up with fervor.

"Save my dad quickly, he’s still in the room!"

He struggled to sit up from the ground.

Qin Ruan glanced at the snake lying on the ground. It has gone to meet the Underworld King.

She asked, "Which room?"

"The second room behind you."

Rong Jing took deep breaths, finally feeling alive again. However, an attempt to stand proves fruitless as his strength was all but expended.

Qin Ruan asked another question, "How many of these humanoid-faced snakes are inside?"

Rong Jing didn’t know what ’humanoid-faced snakes’ were, but he knew there were many dark figures in the room.

"A lot, the room is full of them!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Ruan’s face darkened.

The humanoid-faced snakes, though relatively weak creatures, were ferocious. Typically traveling in groups, they preferred to launch group attacks.

Few survived encounters with them, usually resulting in either being eaten clean or swallowed whole and spat out as a skeleton.

The primary attacking of the humanoid-faced snakes was their sharp teeth, which were capable of inflicting fatal damage, equivalent to the cold weapons known for cutting iron like mud in the world.

The power of their bite was astonishing. It could effortlessly tear their prey into pieces, easily ripping off one’s flesh.

This creature was particularly terrifying due to its numbers each time they emerged.

Even Qin Ruan was somewhat confounded by this situation.

Noticing her reluctance to move, Rong Jing rose unsteadily and stagger closer to Qin Ruan.

As the smell of blood grew stronger, Qin Ruan glanced up at Rong Jing, her gaze cold, "Please, keep some distance!"

The smell was overwhelmingly nauseating, it was beginning to churn her stomach.

Rong Jing stood across from her, filthy, no longer daring to go another step forward.

He hesitated, "My father..."

"I’ll go right now!"

Qin Ruan cut him off, turning around to make her way to Rong Changting’s room.

When she got to the door, her gaze flitted to Rong Jing and Huo Chuan who were not too far away.

"No matter what sounds you hear or whatever else may happen, neither of you is allowed to enter. Otherwise, I can’t assure your safety."

Huo Chuan’s expression sobered, promptly asking, "Madam, will you be in danger?"

"No." Qin Ruan replied firmly and confidently.

She would not let herself fall into a death trap.

It’s just human-skinned snakes, no matter how many there are, they still have weaknesses.

"I’ll wait at the door. Make sure you come out safely."

Huo Chuan took a step towards her, his stance equally resolute.

He had been amazed by Qin Ruan’s skills and had faith that she would emerge safely.

But his duty was unwavering under any circumstances.

"Alright."

Qin Ruan pushed open the door before her and stepped inside.

As Huo Chuan approached, before he could get a clear view of the room, the door was forcefully shut from the inside by Qin Ruan.

Inside the room.

Qin Ruan stared at the scene in front, her pupils trembling slightly.

What she was seeing was completely different from what Rong Jing had seen.

Hundreds of human-skinned snakes densely clustered in the room, in the midst of which sat Rong Changting, surrounded by the interlocked bodies of the snakes as he sat at his desk.

His face was ashen, and he was struggling to breathe.

It was as if he was about to draw his last breath at any moment.

But that wasn’t what startled Qin Ruan. It was the three-tailed gray fox on the table in front of Rong Changting, desperately fighting the snakes trying to attack him.

Rong Changting was only still alive because of this grey fox.

The fox was severely wounded, its grey fur streaked crimson with blood.

Its mouth was occupied by a snake while its three bloody tails were tangled with several others, combatting the monsters that aspired to harm Rong Changting.

One fox up against hundreds of snakes, the situation was considerably more than bleak.

The atmosphere in the room was solemn and filled with a ruthless cruelty.

Realizing Qin Ruan’s presence, a glimmer of hope sparked in the despairing eyes of the three-tailed grey fox.

Caught off guard by her entrance, several snakes seized the chance to attack Rong Changting.

Noticing this, the grey fox released the snake in its mouth, swiftly spinning around to attack the others.

[Hissing noises]

A snake writhed as it was bitten by the fox, it let out a shriek.

[Roaring]

The other snakes were sent into a frenzy.

[Screaming]

Chunks of flesh from Rong Changting’s arm were ripped off by the human-faced snakes.

Accompanied by the fox’s helpless howl.

Qin Ruan took a deep breath and charged ahead with an unstoppable momentum.

A sacred golden light enveloped her slender body, the Nether Divine Power surrounding her repelling the snakes trying to attack her.

Her Golden Whip was swirling rapidly in mid-air.

[Cracking sounds]

Three consecutive strikes, sending all the snakes around Rong Changting and the grey fox flying.

[Hissing noises]

[Continuous hissing]

The snakes hissed non-stop, thoroughly enraged.

Their hissing and the murderous light in their vertical pupils was a clear indication of their fury.
