Chapter 1674: Chapter 1674: A Python Thicker Than Her Arm

“Brother, Junior Sister Qingyu’s mouth is really…”

Xuanyuan Zimo turned and looked at Gu Qingyu, sighing and shaking his head.

Someone who can’t keep their mouth shut, offending people without even realizing it, it’s one thing if she offends others by herself, but he feared that her recklessness might bring trouble upon their whole group.

“Next time, just hit her until she can’t speak anymore, that will do,” Brother Zhen said with a brooding gaze in the direction of Gu Qingyu.

Before, he hadn’t known, thinking they were just ordinary members of the royal family from some dynasty, not worth much attention; after all, they were traveling companions for the time being, and would part ways once they got back.

But now, with the appearance of Lord Yaan from the Xiang Dynasty, things had changed.

The identities of these people were really not simple; offending them, even by accident, would not just be a problem for them, but could also make survival difficult for their own Sect in the Feather Abyss Plane.

Lord Yaan’s forces were powerful, equal to half the Xiang Dynasty. There were already rumors that the Emperor of the Xiang Dynasty intended to abdicate and pass the throne directly to Lord Yaan.

If this was true, then Lord Yaan’s injuries might very well be the result of a struggle with his brother.

And those willing to risk their lives for Lord Yaan while he was injured must share an extraordinary relationship with him; Qian Jiyun and the other person would undoubtedly play pivotal roles in the future of the Xiang Dynasty.

Such people were not to be trifled with by the likes of them.

“I will handle the Great Elder; I believe he won’t take issue with it,” he added.

“Understood.”

Xuanyuan Zimo nodded his head.

…

On Jade Cloud Mountain Cliff, ice sheets were everywhere.

Although it was possible to freeze the snakes, not all of them could be sealed; after all, these snakes survived here relying on the Cold Soul Flower Core, and they were able to stay awake even in winter.

‘Clang, clang clang.’

Inside the ice, numerous snakes were still striking against it.

Hearing the noise, they naturally wanted to attack the people outside, but unfortunately, they had inhaled quite a bit of Cartilage Powder specially designed to deal with snakes, and even if they wanted to attack, they couldn’t break through the ice.

“Who would have thought that Jade Cloud Mountain possesses a suppressive force for cultivation,” Qian Jiyun said as he placed his hand on the ice, feeling the suppression force on his Original Soul energy emanating from the mountain.

“Huh?”

An Jiuyue was startled by his comment.

“I didn’t feel anything.”

As they climbed together, she hadn’t sensed any suppressive force.

Perhaps it was because she was using Demonic energy, so there was no suppressive force on her; the suppressive force of Jade Cloud Mountain was only targeted at Original Soul energy.

But even without the suppression, climbing up was not easy, as the mountain was excessively slippery.

“Jiuyue, be careful,” Qian Jiyun cautioned her, not daring to stray too far from her side, almost matching her step for step as they climbed.

“Mhm.”

An Jiuyue took a deep breath and continued to climb upward.

At this moment, she realized her belly was indeed somewhat of an inconvenience, but it didn’t prevent her from climbing.

Suddenly, with a ‘clang’ sound,

An Jiuyue had just placed her hand on a protruding piece of ice when the ice beside it cracked.

A black python, thicker than her arm, burst out from an ice hole, its gaping maw striking towards her cheek.

“Be careful!”

Qian Jiyun’s heart tightened, preparing to rush over to help.
