Chapter 275 Not an opponent
Xie Lin protected Xia Chan immediately.
Let her hide behind him.
With his hanging hand, he had already drawn the soft sword from his waist.
He was confident that he could deal with the poisonous snakes that were restless and ready to attack him.
Xia Chan just needs to hide behind him. He will protect her well and will not let her get hurt this time.
The drumbeats became more and more intense.
The poisonous snakes that were originally afraid of the summer cicadas now all swarmed forward under the stimulation of the drumbeats.
From the ground, from the trees, flying towards Xie Lin.
"Chanchan, please step back."
For fear of accidentally hurting Xia Chan, Xie Lin held her right hand and squeezed it, then asked her to step back.
He was confident that he could use the sword in his hand to deal with the approaching snake.
Xia Chan hummed.
"Be careful."
It did not stop Xie Lin's actions.
Instead, he chose to trust Xie Lin, stepped back as he wished, and left time and space to him to handle.
Of course, Xia Chan is definitely capable of dealing with these poisonous snakes.
But she chose to give this opportunity to Xie Lin.
It's not because she's lazy, but she also wants to try being a little wife who hides behind a man and has the man to help her solve problems when she encounters problems.
This way men will also have more sense of accomplishment, right?
Xia Chan thought to himself.
As she retreated, the poisonous snakes pounced on her even more frantically.
Xie Lin put away his sword and felt a dazzling flash of cold light before his eyes. Soon, many snake corpses fell at his feet.
They were cut into several pieces.
Some were even chopped off directly in the middle of the head.
The soft sword became extremely sharp in his hand, and the sword energy could hurt any snake that wanted to get close, cutting them into several sections.
For a moment, no snake could get close.
On the contrary, many people died.
Xia Chan stood leisurely at the back, waiting for the snake keeper to appear.
After another wave of snakes were chopped off, Xie Lin's feet were already filled with the corpses of densely packed venomous snakes.
Seeing that the snakes around were still ready to rush over, Xia Chan curled up a cold smile.
Someone came forward from behind.
He smiled and glanced at the surrounding woods.
"Old Ghost, do you really intend to watch all of your treasures die under our swords?"
As soon as she finished her words, Xie Lin grabbed her right arm and pulled her into his arms.
At the same time, he raised his other hand and raised the soft sword to block the flying knife.
It's the snake keeper who comes out.
He had been hiding in the dark and controlling the poisonous snakes, thinking of using the snakes to deal with Xie Lin and turning Xie Lin into nutrients and food for these snakes.
But his plan failed.
This man is not someone who will allow themselves to be bullied by them.
The poisonous snake failed to bite him to death.
On the contrary, a lot of losses were incurred.
These poisonous snakes were carefully nurtured and cared for by Ghost Face. It is no exaggeration to say that they are equivalent to Ghost Face's children.
It is certain that Ghost Face was angry when the child was killed in front of him.
So when he attacked Xie Lin, he showed no mercy.
Xie Lin protected his wife while fighting off the attacking knife with one hand.
Even though the ghost face's figure was very fast and the knife almost left an afterimage, Xie Lin just stood there without moving.
The soft sword in his hand, under his urging, seemed to have woven a dense protective net, and no matter how hard the knife in Ghost Face's hand chopped, it could not penetrate.
Xia Chan was in his arms and didn't have to worry about her safety at all.
The knife and the sword fought for a long time, but no one could tell who was the winner.
At this time, a poisonous snake quietly crawled towards Xie Lin, trying to launch a sneak attack.
Xia Chan's eyes turned cold.
With a turn of his wrist, he had a scalpel in his hand.
The scalpel was thrown out without hesitation, hitting the vital point of the venomous snake that wanted to sneak attack Xie Lin.
Hit the snake seven inches.
Xia Chan's precise hit instantly took the life of another poisonous snake.
She raised her eyes and her gaze fell on the afterimage.
"Ghost Master, you still want to resist? Do you think you can handle the two of us by yourself?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Lin used the soft sword in his hand to block hard, forcing the ghost-faced man to retreat several steps.
He stepped on the leaves on the ground and slid back a distance before stopping.
He scratched two deep marks on the leaves.
After Guimian stopped, he raised his head and looked at Xia Chan.
His face was burned and covered with various scars, looking very scary.
That's why his nickname is Ghost Face.
"Holy Envoy, you are the Holy Envoy of Shenyin Mountain."
What Ghost Face meant was that as a person from Shenyin Mountain, how could she bring outsiders to destroy the snake cave?
Doesn't this mean putting Shenyin Mountain in danger?
The corners of Xia Chan's lips curled up slightly.
"You're mistaken."
She paused for a moment, then slowly said, "It was you who blocked our normal passage first, so we will eliminate the things that are blocking our progress."
It wasn't that she took the initiative to bring people here to provoke.
Guimian was so angry at Xia Chan's words that he trembled.
"Holy Envoy, have you forgotten your mission?"
"Aren't you afraid that the bishop will punish you for bringing outsiders to the sacred mountain without permission?"
Guimian knew that he was no match for Xia Chan and Xie Lin. Even he and all the snakes in the snake cave combined were no match for them.
So he started to use Mo Gui to put pressure on him.
I hope the summer cicadas will be afraid.
But unfortunately, Guimian didn't know that the person who could bring pressure to Xia Chan had already been blown to ashes by the bomb created by Xia Chan.
It's impossible to suppress her now.
Xia Chan raised the corner of his lips and said, "Old Ghost, what you said doesn't make sense. If I remember correctly, at the end of last year, didn't my father take my mother up the mountain?"
"He can lead people up the mountain, but I, a great Holy Envoy of the Divine Religion, cannot lead people up the mountain?"
"Does this mean that in your eyes, there is no such thing as a Holy Envoy like me?"
When she said this, the smile on her face disappeared completely.
The voice said coldly, "You are so loyal to my master, if he dies, will you be buried with him?"
"what?"
Guimian was surprised by Xia Chan's words.
He raised his head and looked at Xia Chan in surprise.
Those eyes seemed to be asking whether what Xia Chan said was true?
Xia Chan didn't answer.
But her attitude has proved everything.
Mo Gui is dead.
The Ghost Face's originally stalemate figure suddenly collapsed at this moment, as if all its strength had been drained away, or like a tree that had lost its nutrients.
In an instant, he became withered.
He had a hunched back, and seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.
He did not bother with Xia Chan and the others anymore, but turned around and waved his hand, "Forget it, forget it..."
I just don't know what he said.
In short, as he left, the poisonous snakes lurking around him also scattered like birds and beasts.
Xia Chan curled her lips.
He took Xie Lin's hand and said, "Let's go up the mountain."
