“There is no way my mom and dad have already passed away… Sob, sob… they have promised me… Sob, that they will surely pick me up…” Bai Sumei’s angry yell turned into sniffles.

“They have already promised me, so why… Waaaahhh~!” Then Bai Sumei’s sobs turned into a loud cry.

RUMBLE—! RUMBLE—! RUMBLE—! RUMBLE—!

The sky above was immediately covered with black clouds, and heavy rain began to pour down from the sky, as if it was also crying along with Bai Sumei.

Tang Li Xue did not say anything to comfort Bai Sumei.

Tang Li Xue thought it was a good thing for Bai Sumei to vent out everything and cried to her heart’s content.

Bai Sumei had waited patiently for so long in this lake, only to find that her parents had passed away, so it was completely natural if she felt angry, mournful, disappointed, unable to believe, and heartbroken.

She only waited patiently for an entire day right by Bai Sumei’s side until Bai Sumei calmed down and stopped crying.

Tang Li Xue patted Bai Sumei’s giant head gently and asked: “Have you calmed down?”

“I know you are still sad. I also offer my condolences, but life must still go on. You cannot always live in this lake because your parents can no longer come to pick you up here.”

“Furthermore, the people from that crazy woman’s sect will surely come here to check sooner or later. You will be in big trouble if they find out that you are related to that crazy woman’s death.” Tang Li Xue explained it clearly to Bai Sumei.

Bai Sumei pondered Tang Li Xue’s words carefully for a few moments and found it made sense.

“But… I have no other place to go.” Bai Sumei murmured helplessly.

Tang Li Xue smiled beautifully and mentioned her suggestion: “I have a ‘friend’ from Snake Clan. How about I bring you to meet her, so she can bring you back to Snake Clan?”

“Bring me back to Snake Clan?” Bai Sumei hesitated for a while.

“Yes, you can meet with many friends of the same race as you there later.” Tang Li Xue tried to persuade Bai Sumei.

At first, Tang Li Xue wanted to bring Bai Sumei to join her team, so she could be friends with Yaya, Lucia, Little Loki, and Xi’er.

But she quickly remembered that it might not be a good idea because their group would face extremely fatal danger in the future, so she decided to just bring Bai Sumei to join the Snake Clan instead.

Tang Li Xue sighed helplessly as she thought that she should not get too close to others, since she might drag down the others to die with her in the future.

When the images of Instructor Mei Lan, Silly Fox, and Bingbing flashed in her mind, Tang Li Xue secretly decided to keep some distance from them too, after she reached Central Continent later.

Bai Sumei stared at Tang Li Xue intensely without saying anything.

“What? Why are you staring at me like that?” Tang Li Xue asked Bai Sumei curiously.

“Would you also come with me to Snake Clan?” Bai Sumei blushed in embarrassment as she asked Tang Li Xue.

But Tang Li Xue shook her head and replied: “No, I have to go somewhere else.”

“Th… Then can you just bring me with you? I promise to behave well and never splash any water at you anymore, okay?” Bai Sumei asked Tang Li Xue in a hopeful tone.

Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue shook her head again to reject Bai Sumei by saying: “I am really sorry, but I cannot bring you with me. I have powerful enemies that will be after my life.”

“But I am not afraid…” Bai Sumei still tried to argue.

“I am the one who is afraid of involving you. My enemies are very powerful. Even my Fox Clan cannot do anything to protect me, so I do not want to drag you down with me.” Tang Li Xue patted Bai Sumei’s head to comfort her.

Bai Sumei lowered her head dejectedly.

Then Tang Li Xue sat on the top of Bai Sumei’s giant head, and Bai Sumei soared into the sky.

Tang Li Xue tracked the female snake’s current location using the Wind Mark she secretly put on the female snake.

Fortunately, their locations were not too far away from each other.

Maybe it would probably take one or two days of detour for Tang Li Xue.

Tang Li Xue’s time was quite tight because the schedule for Flying Island number 891 to reach the Xia Dynasty was getting closer and closer.

But one or two days of detour should not be a big problem.

Tang Li Xue deliberately took out the cheerful Yaya from the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda] and introduced her to Bai Sumei, so Yaya could cheer Bai Sumei up on their way.

Just as Tang Li Xue had expected, it did not take long for Yaya to get close to Bai Sumei, since both of them seemed to be acting like immature children.

After one and a half days, Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Bai Sumei finally reached the female snake’s location.

Yes, they actually saw a large and prosperous city from afar!

“Does your snake ‘friend’ really live here?” Bai Sumei asked sceptically.

“Uhh, well… Maybe she has a task to do in that city.” Tang Li Xue replied in an unsure tone.

But Tang Li Xue had another problem that made her head ache right now.

Bai Sumei could not transform into human form yet, so how could she follow Tang Li Xue into the city to meet the female snake?!

If she left Bai Sumei further away from the city, then she entered the city alone to meet the female snake, there was no guarantee that Bai Sumei would not meet with any problem when she was not there with her.

Not to mention that she was actually not that close to the female snake, so the female snake should not believe what she said if the female snake did not see Bai Sumei directly.

In the end, Tang Li Xue decided to accompany Bai Sumei to wait further outside the city.

As for the task to look for the female snake inside the city and bring her out of the city to meet with them, Tang Li Xue decided to give the task to Xi’er and Little Loki instead.

Tang Li Xue brought Xi’er and Little Loki out from the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda] and explained the task clearly to them.

“Do you two still remember the previous female snake we faced before? She is currently hiding inside that city. I want you to find her, and…” Before Tang Li Xue could finish her words, Xi’er and Little Loki had already enthusiastically way what was in their mind.

“Do not worry, Sister Xue~! I will make sure she regrets that she ever offended us! I will not kill her too quickly, so she can suffer more painful torture.” Xi’er said coldly as she crackled her fists.

“Meeeoow mew nyaaaw nyaaoow~! (I will make sure to only swallow her body and leave her head intact, so we can kick her head around as an amusing toy in our journey~!)” Little Loki evilly conveyed to Tang Li Xue.

Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes and increasingly felt that her team had become more and more like a bunch of villains.

Evil Fiend Beast’s cub and an undead creature… Well, they truly looked like a pair of villains.

Tang Li Xue coughed and scolded them: “Why are you two so bloodthirsty?! We did not come here for revenge! I just want you two to find that female snake and tell her that we have a snake friend, and we want her to bring our snake friend back to the Snake Clan.”

Tang Li Xue explained to Xi’er and Little Loki while pointing at Bai Sumei.

Both Xi’er and Little Loki immediately deflated in disappointment.

“What if she does not want to hear us and attacks us as soon as she sees us? After all, we have already ruined her plan once, and we even fought against her before.” Xi’er asked Tang Li Xue.

Tang Li Xue thought what Xi’er had said made sense.

She pondered carefully for a while before answered: “Let’s threaten her first. Just say to her that you will reveal her identity to everyone in the city if she dares to attack you or refuses to listen to your words.”

“If she still refuses to go out of the city and meet with me, then let’s just forcefully tie her up and bring her here. We do not have anymore time to waste because we have to reach the Xia Dynasty in only one more week or so.” Tang Li Xue stated to Xi’er and Little Loki.

Xi’er and Little Loki nodded their head in understanding before they headed to the city together, while Tang Li Xue and Yaya were waiting further outside the city to accompany Bai Sumei.

Tang Li Xue also secretly told her perfect copy, who was still practicing inside the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda], to go to the Wind Floor and check the exact location of the female snake and what the female snake was doing right now.

…..

…

.

Meanwhile, the female snake inside the city was currently still carrying out her mission.

“It was all because of that damn stinky fox and her group that I failed in my previous mission! Urgh, my precious contribution points… Sigh, forget it. I will just make it up by completing this mission.” The female snake grumbled angrily as she waited patiently in the inn while staring at the luxurious building across the street.
