237: Wanshe Gorge

A precipitous mountain Peak had a crack in the middle, as if it had been forcibly split open by someone.

The crack was several dozen feet wide, forming a gorge.

Due to the many snakes inhabiting it, this place was known as Ten Thousand Snakes Gorge.

At this moment, giant snakes coiled on both sides of the gorge, their triangular vertical pupils fixed menacingly on a caravan standing ready for battle.

"Commander Xia Mang, we are the Han Family caravan from Tianbei City. Here are some small gifts. We hope the commander can make things convenient for us."

At the very front of the caravan, a middle-aged man bravely raised both hands, holding up a card in his palm.

In front of the man, a figure floated in mid-air. He had a human body but a snake head on his neck, and a pair of emerald green wings vibrated on his back.

With a wave of his hand, a suction force erupted. Xia Mang glanced at the card in his hand, a sharp-toothed grin spreading across his mouth. "Not bad, you are very sincere."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man thought he could pass smoothly, and a smile appeared on his face.

This Commander Xia Mang was not a benevolent sort, and he was extremely bold, often plundering merchant caravans, relying on his strength as a Dou Huang.

But as long as they could pass smoothly, all families were willing to spend some money.

Because every time he was encircled, Xia Mang would directly flee, and once the heat died down, he would return to seek revenge.

"Commander, can our caravan pass now?"

Han Chong's face was tense.

"Of course."

The card flipped between Xia Mang's fingers. He flicked his snake tongue, sweeping the air, then suddenly pointed a finger at a carriage. "However, the woman must stay!"

The smile that had just appeared on Han Chong's face froze, and the expressions of the others also suddenly changed.

"Commander..."

Han Chong gripped the weapon in his hand.

However.

Xia Mang's gaze no longer lingered on him; it was fixed on a certain carriage. "Hehe, little lady, I smelled that fragrance on you a long time ago. Don't hide, come out quickly."

As he spoke, with a "bang," the carriage roof shattered, and a figure holding a sword flew out from inside, landing on top of the carriage.

"As I expected, a rare beauty, a rare beauty indeed!"

Red light flashed in Xia Mang's eyes, and he rubbed his hands incessantly.

"Young Miss, you go first, we'll hold him back."

From the moment Han Xue appeared, Han Chong understood that there was no turning back.

The lustful Demonic Beast snake Xia Mang was infamous, a fact known throughout Tianbei City. Under no circumstances could the Young Miss fall into his hands.

"You think you can stop me?"

Xia Mang saw the middle-aged man charge at him with a weapon, a sneer forming at the corner of his eye. He opened his mouth, and a stream of emerald green Qi shot out.

Boom!

Han Chong tried to block it but to no avail. He was sent flying backward, crashing into the caravan's goods and falling to the ground.

Between the Peak of Dou Ling and Dou Huang, there was an insurmountable chasm in strength.

With just one move, he was defeated.

Han Xue's cheeks were cold. She gripped her long sword, a pair of wings unfurling behind her, and attacked the disgusting green snake head.

"Beauty, are you in such a hurry to throw yourself into my arms?"

Xia Mang let out a laugh, and again spat out a stream of Qi, which collided with the long sword in Han Xue's hand.

The long sword let out a mournful cry and shattered into countless pieces.

Han Xue was swept back by the Qi wave, her body involuntarily retreating. She quickly flapped her wings to stabilize herself.

"Where's the snake demon?"

Han Xue scanned the front, but didn't see Xia Mang's figure, and was momentarily stunned.

"Little lady, are you looking for me?"

At this moment, a sinister, goosebump-inducing voice suddenly sounded behind her ear.

Xia Mang's face showed a lewd smile, and one hand reached towards Han Xue's shoulder.

Han Xue's pretty face turned pale. She wanted to resist, but the gap between them was too great, and she simply didn't have time.

Thinking of being taken away by Xia Mang, the rumors she had heard in the city before flashed uncontrollably through her mind.

She became even more panicked.

"Xue'er!"

A cold light flashed in the sky, accompanied by a sharp cry.

Feeling the surge of Qi, Xia Mang quickly retracted his hand and retreated.

The next instant, a chilling long sword tore through the air, shooting past his previous position.

The long sword plunged into the ground, leaving only the hilt, and the surrounding earth crystallized into ice.

"Sister!"

Hearing the familiar voice, Han Xue's face immediately recovered, somewhat incredulous, until she looked at the familiar figure in the sky, and finally relaxed.

"Another beauty has arrived..."

Xia Mang noticed the woman who suddenly appeared in the sky, her silver hair shimmering beautifully in the sunlight. "Did only you come? Beauty."

From her aura, he could sense that she was a Dou Huang.

But Xia Mang was not afraid; he was also a Dou Huang, and this was his Ten Thousand Snakes Gorge.

Not to mention one Dou Huang, even if another came, he had nothing to fear.

"I didn't expect you to actually be here. Good thing I wasn't too late."

Han Yue stood beside her sister, a wave of lingering fear washing over her.

If her sister had been captured by Xia Mang, her fate would likely be ten thousand times more tragic than falling into the Hong Family's hands.

Fortunately, Lin Xiu had warned her in time. But how did he know Xue'er would be here?

"Big beauty, you should worry about your own situation first. Now that you've come to Ten Thousand Snakes Gorge, if I don't want you to leave, then you definitely won't be able to."

A cold glint appeared in Xia Mang's eyes, and a strange roar suddenly emanated from his mouth.

Countless giant snakes on both sides of the gorge, upon hearing this sound, all sprang into action, their eyes glinting with ferocity, poised to rush towards the Han Yue and Han Xue sisters.

"Sister, be careful!"

Countless venomous snakes poured down like rain, even obscuring the sunlight in the sky somewhat. Han Xue's expression immediately changed.

The Han Family guards huddled together, trembling with their weapons raised.

At this sight, in less than two seconds, they would likely be submerged by the venomous snakes.

Han Yue snorted, and a large amount of cold Qi surged from her body. The air temperature around them plummeted, and snowflakes appeared out of thin air.

Some venomous snakes had their bodies covered in frost, quickly showing signs of freezing.

"Are you treating me as a mere decoration?"

A green light flashed, and Xia Mang suddenly appeared in front of Han Yue, slapping away Han Xue, who tried to block him, with one palm, and reaching for Han Yue's neck with his other hand.

Looking at the approaching claw, Han Yue's expression was very calm, as if she didn't see it at all.

Seeing this, a strange feeling arose in Xia Mang's heart, but he merely took it as the other party bluffing.

Once I catch you, let's see if you still maintain this posture.

As the thought flashed through his mind, his vertical pupils suddenly contracted to the size of pinpricks.

A young man suddenly appeared beside Han Yue.

He threw a punch.

It was a casual punch, seemingly without much force, and there were no Qi fluctuations.

But the vibrating, compressed air sent a warning to Xia Mang's heart, telling him that he couldn't take this punch!

Boom!

Xia Mang's body flew backward for about a hundred meters before gradually stopping. He then hung in the air for two seconds, and with a "bang," he exploded.

The surrounding venomous snakes lay on the ground, trembling, daring not to move.

"Who is he? Sister's friend? Is he my brother-in-law?"

Han Xue's small mouth formed a perfect circle, and her eyes widened instantly.

It was already amazing to send Xia Mang flying with one punch, but he actually blew him up directly?

No, that was a Rank Six Demonic Beast.

When did Sister get to know such a powerful person? The family situation is so bad, and I haven't heard her say anything about it.

If I have such a powerful brother-in-law, then what if Hong Chen is from the Wind and Thunder Pavilion? He can't blow up Xia Mang with one punch either.
