Marrying a White Snake Wife is Super Cool-Chapter 115 - 88: Madam Zhao’s Close Nephew Captured All the Bandits at Nanhu Mouth
From the moment she saw the great Bat Spirit’s level of cultivation after it transformed, Su Liyan had been thinking.
’Its cultivation is so high. What if my first strike doesn’t kill it?’
’Or what if I attack recklessly and it gets away?’
’After all, the creature has wings.’
’And I don’t have any Dharma Artifacts, so chasing it would be incredibly hard.’
’Besides, this is the Bat Spirit’s home turf.’
’If I really let it escape...’’
Then Su Liyan would have no choice but to rush home to her mother and unleash all the Da Xingzi of Changliu Village to hunt it down.
After all, once you’ve made an enemy like this, if you don’t deal with it quickly, there’s no telling when it might return for revenge.
’I’m not afraid of it coming after me, but what if it goes after my man?’
That’s why Su Liyan’s plan from the start was to bait the Bat Spirit into attacking her.
The spirit thought she was a rookie, out to vanquish her first demon.
And in turn, she thought it was a complete idiot.
Now, Su Liyan’s hand was clamped tightly around the Bat Spirit’s neck.
No matter how it struggled, Su Liyan’s hand was like an iron pincer, locking the Bat Spirit in place.
"Go on, laugh. Why have you stopped?
Weren’t you just cackling like a duck a moment ago?"
Su Liyan held her head high, gazing at the Bat Spirit with utter indifference, her eyes devoid of any emotion.
This ice-queen demeanor was exactly what Lu Yuan loved most.
Too bad Lu Yuan was fast asleep and didn’t know a thing.
Just then, an ecstatic Daoist Longchuan rushed over, exclaiming excitedly from the side:
"Good heavens, Great Immortal! How on earth did you do that? How are you completely unharmed?"
In a situation like that, forget a Celestial Master...
Even my master, the Observatory Master of Dou Shi Temple, couldn’t have escaped completely unscathed, right?
It’s like, even if you were the greatest Sword Immortal in the world, you’d still bleed if you got hit by a Sword Bag!
But looking at her now, Su Liyan didn’t have a single scratch on her.
Daoist Longchuan was beside himself with excitement, but Su Liyan had no time for him.
After a frantic struggle, the Bat Spirit realized with horror just how vast the gap in their power was.
It had no hope of breaking free.
The Bat Spirit fell into a complete panic, and words of mercy spilled from its mouth.
It pleaded about how hard it had worked to achieve its current power.
It claimed it had no other choice, along with a slew of other excuses.
To Su Liyan, all of this was utterly useless.
Just as Su Liyan’s hand began to tighten, about to finish off the Bat Spirit,
the Bat Spirit rasped out:
"I... I can... help you find... the bandits..."
Hearing this, Su Liyan’s hand paused, and she hesitated.
The Bat Spirit sucked in a huge breath, thinking it had found a way to save its life.
A look of joy had just appeared on its face.
But the next second, Su Liyan’s grip on its neck instantly tightened once more.
The force was so great this time that the Bat Spirit’s eyes looked like they were about to pop out of their sockets.
Su Liyan stared at the Bat Spirit, her face a mask of indifference, and said coldly:
"My man is the smartest in the world. You think he needs your help?!
Besides, as if you’re worthy!
An evil spirit helping my man? If word got out, his reputation would be ruined!
Stop your squawking. You’ve harmed so many people; you should have known this day would come!"
As Su Liyan finished speaking, there was a PFFT, like air rushing out of a balloon.
Watching this, Daoist Longchuan, who stood to the side, couldn’t help but gulp in terror.
Hiss...
’This Great Immortal’s body...’
’It doesn’t seem normal...’
’After her ancestral reversion... her strength is just... monstrous...’
’She just crushed it to death with her bare hands? Without even using a Dharma Artifact?!’
...
「Around two or three in the morning.」
Su Liyan crouched by the riverbank, washing her hands.
Moonlight spilled over Su Liyan’s exquisite face, lending her a hazy, mysterious aura.
Su Liyan’s usual aura was a mix of pure and sultry.
Under the moonlight, however, she seemed even more pure.
From a distance, she was as beautiful as a painting.
A breathtaking woman, dappled in moonlight amidst the reeds, playing in the water.
It was a beautiful sight.
Except, of course, for the fresh blood being rinsed from Su Liyan’s slender hands into the current.
No one would ever imagine that such a pure and serene beauty...
had, just moments before, used her monstrous strength to crush the head of a five-hundred-year-old Spirit Monster.
As Su Liyan quietly washed her hands by the river, Daoist Longchuan hurried over.
"Great Immortal, I was looking at her, and something feels off.
I’ve never heard of such a powerful Xingzi appearing here before.
Could there be some kind of treasure that caused her cultivation to skyrocket... or..."
Su Liyan showed no reaction to Daoist Longchuan’s words, simply continuing to wash her hands as she replied:
"If there is, you can look for it. Whatever you find is yours. It has nothing to do with me.
I’m heading back now. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
Have your two disciples take me back. I’m worried my man might wake up in the night and panic when he doesn’t see me."
Hearing Su Liyan’s words, Daoist Longchuan nodded vigorously.
"Of course, of course."
Daoist Longchuan’s intention had been to find the treasure, if any, and offer it to the Great Immortal.
After all, he hadn’t been of any help in the matter.
He couldn’t very well take both the treasure and the glory.
When you’re in this line of work, you’ve got to have a code.
He just never expected that the Great Immortal would want nothing, her mind solely focused on her man.
Ultimately, Su Liyan took a small boat and headed back first.
Daoist Longchuan remained behind to handle the aftermath.
...
「Around three or four in the morning.」
Su Liyan crept back into the main tent.
Even in the dead of night, Su Liyan’s eyes could see everything perfectly.
She saw that her man was still snoring away, not even having changed his sleeping position.
