The men of the Serpent Clan felt that something was amiss.
"Why would the Lingqi Pavilion be struck by heavenly lightning out of nowhere?" one questioned.
"Perhaps we should summon an elder from the clan to take a look," another suggested.
"This heavenly tribulation feels too sinister," a third murmured.
In the end, the men of the Serpent Clan decided to call an elder to investigate. However, when several elders arrived and saw the situation, they turned to leave immediately.
Wang Mang, noticing that the elders were avoiding the topic, picked up a dagger and threatened them to speak clearly.
With no other choice, the elders revealed the truth.
"This child is ominous!"
"A disaster is about to befall our clan!"
"The Demonic Energy... it's too heavy!"
"We're all going to die!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Mang killed the elders on the spot.
"Nonsense!" he shouted. "What do you mean Demonic Energy? This is clearly Dragon Qi!"
"Don't listen to these old fools."
"They just don't want our Serpent Clan to thrive!"
And so, I found myself imprisoned once again.
That day, someone came to bring me food. But as they pushed open the door, they were so frightened that they collapsed on the ground. At that moment, I was sitting cross-legged on my bed, my entire body enveloped in Black Serpent energy.
A pair of golden vertical pupils fixed intently on the newcomer.
Seeing that something was off with me, they immediately turned to flee.
I gently waved my hand, and countless massive Black Serpents surged forward, surrounding them in an instant.
"Kill!"
At my command, blood gushed from the mouths of the Black Serpents, staining my cheeks red.
This was my first time killing someone.
My heart was filled with both sorrow and exhilaration.
The sorrow stemmed from the realization that I could never return to the past.
The exhilaration came from knowing that I would no longer have to watch others bully me!
Countless small snakes crawled out from within me.
In an instant, they grew into large serpents, sweeping toward my kin.
The entire Serpent Clan was thrown into chaos.
I could clearly sense the movements of the Black Serpents.
I slowly issued my command.
"Anyone who has violated me must die!"
…
The Black Serpents surged like a tide throughout the Serpent's Abyss.
At first, there were only a few.
By the time the Serpent Clan members noticed, they were already surrounded by Black Serpents!
"Ah!"
"Help me!"
"Get these Black Serpents away!"
…
The Black Serpents gathered in swarms, encircling all the clan members.
Many of the Serpent Clan had transformed into their serpent forms, engaging in fierce battles with the Black Serpents.
Some were wielding sharp weapons, fiercely striking at the approaching Black Serpents. However, these weapons had no effect on the swarming Black Serpents. Moreover, they did not focus on cultivation; they only knew how to exploit my spiritual energy. With such limited abilities, how could they possibly stand against the Black Serpents? Furthermore, the Black Serpents were the most powerful beings within the Serpent Clan. They would be torn into countless pieces.
I closed my eyes to rest, waiting for the Black Serpents to devour everyone who had wronged me. Soon, a message from the Black Serpents reached me. They had found a corpse. This corpse belonged to Wang Mang's wife, Xiao Yu. Her abdomen had also been hollowed out, as if something had been extracted from it.
I immediately understood. Xiao Yu's cultivation was too low to properly nurture the Dragon Serpent Pearl. That must be why the Clan Leader and Wang Mang had removed the Dragon Serpent Pearl from her body. The Black Serpents continued their search in the dungeon. To my surprise, they found another girl this time! This girl was Xiao Yu's sister, Xiao Pei. Her belly was large, clearly indicating that she was pregnant. Moreover, she emitted the unique scent of the Dragon Serpent Pearl!
It seemed she was the new vessel for the Dragon Serpent Pearl! But… I cursed the Clan Leader and his son as beasts! They had gone mad in their pursuit of the Dragon Serpent Pearl!
