925 Attack
The little snakes were fired up and began to move forward.
Jiang Ming looked at the little snakes and could not help but feel amused by their struggle.
No matter how hard they fought, they were still at the bottom.
He was intrigued. He was also staring at the Snake King, who was already unable to take it anymore.
The color of the Snake King’s eyes instantly turned gray and started secreting a yellow substance.
It no longer had the strength to hit Jiang Ming. It could only lie on the ground and secretly command its little snakes to bite Jiang Ming.
However, just as the opening on the barrier was getting bigger and the little snakes’ hopes were getting higher, the barrier was st.i.tched up by Jiang Ming.
This time, Jiang Ming used twice as much spiritual energy as before.
The little snakes did not lose their spirits. Instead, they moved forward more actively.
This time, no matter how hard they tried, they still could not break through the barrier.
After a while, a few more groups of little snake corpses appeared in the barrier.
Seeing that the previous strategy could not be continued, the group of little snakes began to plan for other strategies.
They chattered, and their voices were very loud. It was almost unbearably loud.
Seeing that Sikong Wuyuan, Yuan Hehe, and the others could not stand it anymore, Jiang Ming considerately silenced the barrier.
At this moment, the Snake King seemed to have noticed the movements of the little snakes and rushed toward the barrier.
It was extremely fast. Jiang Ming probably realized something, but he did not stop it.
Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe could not help but panic. They hurriedly combined their mana.
With this combination, the Snake King was immediately blocked by an invisible wall.
However, it did not give up. Instead, it charged forward and crashed straight into it.
Yuan Hehe and Sikong Wuyuan thought that the barrier could stop the Snake King.
However, it was directly broken through by it. Not only that, but it was also unharmed.
They had been shaken away by the Snake King, and snake-like scales had actually grown on their bodies.
These scales were of different sizes and colors.
Unexpectedly, these scales had their own consciousness and headed toward Jiang Ming.
Before Jiang Ming could react, the scales directly stuck him to a wooden board. He was stuck tightly by the scales.
The same thing happened to the others.
Jiang Ming glanced at Sikong Wuyuan and the others, then at the scale in his hand and squeezed one.
The scale broke.
Seeing Jiang Ming’s actions, Sikong Wuyuan, Yuan Hehe, and the child copied him, but they were held even tighter.
Jiang Ming helped them break free.
However, the Snake King noticed Jiang Ming’s behavior and quickly roared. It was coming toward them.
Jiang Ming only saw a monster with its tail separated from its body heading toward him.
Jiang Ming knew that it was time to end the battle quickly. He raised his hand and condensed a force in his palm. He leaped into the air and shot an arrow at the Snake King.
The sword pierced straight into the Snake King’s heart. The Snake King was instantly torn into pieces, and its entire body exploded.
The other little snakes also disappeared.
Sikong Wuyuan and the others were covered in the Snake King’s blood. However, they were very happy to see the Snake King disappear.
The Snake King had been dragging things out for a while now.
Li Nanchu also heaved a sigh of relief. However, he had already been injured by the Snake King, and he could not help but feel resentful.
If Ning Caichen had come earlier, he would not have been harmed by the Snake King.
He also knew that Ning Caichen must have been there at that time. Otherwise, he would not have come to save him.
However, he could not show his thoughts on the surface. He could not defeat Ning Caichen at all.
After some thought, Li Nanchu pretended to congratulate Jiang Ming. “Lord Ning Caichen, you’re really amazing. The Snake King was nothing to you.”
Upon hearing Li Nanchu’s words, Jiang Ming glanced at him, then walked toward Sikong Wuyuan, and the others to examine them.
Li Nanchu’s face instantly turned green.
Logically speaking, he should be the one with the most serious injuries among these people!
Jiang Ming did not check on him but instead checked on the other people who seemed to be unscathed. Wasn’t he completely ignoring him?
However, he could not express his feelings. He could only vent to the royal physician beside him. He said sarcastically, “Hurry up and come over to check on me. Are you going to check on those healthy people as well?”
The royal physician could not help but panic when he was suddenly mentioned.
He was already trembling with fear, and now his hands were shaking even more. He hurriedly rushed over to Li Nanchu.
However, he was also injured. Before he could walk a few steps, he fell to the ground, spat out a mouthful of blood, and closed his eyes.
Li Nanchu’s eyes widened when he saw this strange action. Then, he started cursing.
“What are you pretending to be dead for? Hurry up and get up. I am not someone you can toy with so easily!”
Jiang Ming glanced at the royal physician and kindly told Li Nanchu, “The royal physician is already dead.”
Li Nanchu said in disbelief as she glared at Jiang Ming. “How is this possible? I saw that he wasn’t even attacked by the snake. He was completely unharmed.”
“Your thoughts are your thoughts. His illness is his illness. The two do not conflict.”
Jiang Ming could not be bothered to continue talking to Li Nanchu.
He found an injury on the child’s body and prepared to perform an operation on the child.
Jiang Ming used silver needles and the clip that he conjured to remove the poisoned flesh.
The child cried out in pain. Jiang Ming comforted him and then disinfected and bandaged his wound.
However, the child’s leg could not move. The injury happened to be on his leg.
Although the wound was treated, the child’s pain was not reduced. He gritted his teeth tightly, and his face was covered in sweat.
Yuan Hehe could feel the child’s pain when he saw him like this. He knelt down kindly and gestured for the child to lean on him.
The child looked at Yuan Hehe gratefully, but he shook his head. “I can walk. I can’t waste my energy now. Something bigger might appear here.”
In the blink of an eye, a beast child similar to this child appeared in everyone’s vision.
“Who told you to touch the Snake King? You were the ones who killed people, but you killed the Snake King. You guys deserve to die.”
“I didn’t do anything to your Snake King. He attacked us first, so we were forced to defend ourselves.”
