Chapter 24: Fighting the Snake

  This should be the final level, after passing this level, it should be possible to enter the next layer.

  What's next? Is it that endless forest in front of us that stretches as far as the eye can see, or is there something else going on here?

  Ling Luo Yu didn't understand and he didn't need to understand, because in this final trial, there must be a guardian of the pass. When the time is right, they will naturally tell Ling Luo Yu and his group.

  Although the wilderness and forest are closely connected, there is only one road that leads from the wilderness to the forest. At least, in Ling Luo's eyes, he only found one road.

  At the end of this road, there is a small and elegant villa. The color of the villa looks very new, obviously it was just built recently.

  Out of the gate of another courtyard, it is this road, the only one road.

  Ling Luo Yu and his group of five were slowly making their way along the path leading to the forest, step by step approaching the endless woods.

  Suddenly, Chen Kong furrowed his brow and smiled bitterly: "It's here. It seems that this last hurdle is indeed not easy to pass. The people who came to greet us are already here!"

  In the middle of the road stood three people, three young people, or at least they looked very young.

  Those three people were neither strong nor tall, but they gave people a feeling like a mountain, so unshakeable.

  Especially when that person, with a pale complexion and a thin build, looked as if he couldn't withstand the wind, but in Ling Luo's eyes, that young man was like an ocean, so deep and unfathomable, so difficult to fathom, as if his frail body hid boundless power, enough to tear all enemies in front of him to pieces with unmatched force.

  Long Gongzi raised his head and glanced at several people before saying: "Among you five, who is Ling Luo Yu?"

  Ling Luo looked at Long Gongzi and said lightly: "It's me! Who are you?"

  In an instant, Long Gongzi's eyes changed, becoming sharp and fierce, as if flames were about to erupt from his pupils.

  "I know why you're here. There's a passage in another courtyard that leads to the next level. To be honest, I could let you through even if it means getting punished, and we wouldn't have had to fight. But you killed Fow Tiger, so now it's a matter of life and death between us!"

  Ling Luo's expression changed, and he furrowed his brow, for he saw a dragon with bared teeth and claws, as well as a small green snake, and a large grey rat.

  With a wry smile, Ling Luoyu slowly said: "You are the Dragon Subduing Grandson, the Green Snake Grandson and the Ghost Mouse Grandson?"

  "Not bad, Fuhu Gongzi is my second brother. Unfortunately, because of your Ling Luoye, the former Wulin Four Princes have lost one!" Long Gongzi nodded.

  Ling Luo shook his head and said, "I should have thought of this earlier. It's likely that Snake Young Master and Mouse Young Master would have ambushed us along the way, but because of you, they gave up and came here instead. With the three of you gathering together to deal with us, your chances of winning are much higher!"

  Long Gongzi smiled faintly and said, "This is indeed one of the reasons. Ling Gongzi, you are unparalleled in your talent and intelligence. Actually, I didn't want to be an enemy with you, but..."

  "In that case, let's not waste words. If we're going to fight, then let's fight!" Ling Luoyu cut off Long Gongzi's words, Chen Kong, Mu Yi and several others also stood up in formation, preparing to welcome the incoming battle with the Four Symbol Return to Origin Formation.

  The Ling bird's wings fluttered rapidly, and the flags fell to the ground one after another. The flags were arranged in an orderly manner between each other, revealing infinite mystery.

  "Take action, I'll trap the Dragon Prince, you deal with those two snake mice first!" Ling Luoyu shouted loudly, and the last flag in his hand was inserted into the ground, instantly yellow sand rolled, wind and cloud changed color, and the Dragon Prince was rolled in.

  "Zzz... zzz... zzz..." Just then, a sound like a snake spitting out its letter suddenly rang out.

  Mo Yi and Chen Kongyi exchanged a subtle glance, and when they looked again, they saw that the Green Snake's entire body had become incredibly soft and was twisting in a strange way.

  Although the body of Qing She Gongzi looked like it was just twisting randomly at first glance, but with a little attention, one could discover that this seemingly chaotic movement seemed to have a special frequency. To be precise, at this moment, Qing She Gongzi no longer looked like a human being, but rather like a restless snake.

  The young master's hands were like a snake's letter, floating and swinging, even the whole person of the young master seemed to be covered with a layer of green.

  Although the young master's appearance was extremely strange, Chen Kong and several others became even more vigilant, because they believed that the young master's skill was absolutely a rare and formidable martial art, and absolutely could not be underestimated.

  "Whoosh!" The Green Snake Gentleman transformed into a green shadow and pounced on Chen Kong.

  Chen Kong's speed was the fastest among the four, and with a light flash, he easily dodged Qing She Gong Zi's fierce pounce.

  However, at this moment, Qing She Gongzi's hands suddenly twisted and seemed to have stretched out like a sudden extension of his arm, directly towards Chen Kong.

  "Drink!" Chen Kong retreated swiftly while extending his finger slightly, pointing at Qing She Gongzi's arm several times.

  The Green Snake Gentleman's entire body suddenly flipped over, his legs curled up like a snake tail, coiling towards Chen Kong.

  "Whoosh......" Under the unexpected attack, Chen Kong was actually rolled up by that one leg, and a huge force hit Chen Kong's entire body.

  "Thud... thud... thud..." Chen Kong retreated three steps in a row before stabilizing, but this blow seemed to have injured him quite badly as well, with several strands of blood already hanging from the corner of his mouth.

  After traveling the world for so many years, Chen Kong can be said to have never been injured. Even when encountering an opponent he couldn't defeat, Chen Kong could easily escape danger with his unparalleled lightness kung fu.

  However, this time Chen Kong was injured and Chen Kong also got angry. He slowly raised his head, and Chen Kong's eyes had turned crimson with rage, staring fixedly at the Green Snake Young Master. Although Chen Kong didn't say a word, his expression fully revealed the anger in his heart.
