Reborn as a Snake: Forging a Demon Court Starting from a Black Python

Chapter 10 Serpent Clan's Magical Treasure

Xiaoqing didn't really care much about Bai Suzhen's treasure.

Like Bai Suzhen, she only knew how to cultivate herself and was ignorant of worldly affairs, like a blank sheet of paper.

Saying these things now is nothing more than causing trouble for Lin Xuan.

Bai Suzhen frowned slightly, glanced at Xiaoqing, and felt that Xiaoqing's words were a bit excessive.

Regardless, Lin Xuan was like a brother to her, and after receiving her letter, Lin Xuan traveled a long way to help her.

This enthusiasm is right here.

Lin Xuan is only trying to keep the treasure safe for me, yet Xiao Qing says such things. Isn't that disheartening?

Thinking of this, Bai Suzhen said, "Xiaoqing, you don't need to say anything more. It's a good thing that Xuan'er is keeping those magical treasures for me."

"I need to find that person to repay their kindness, but if I carry these with me, it will easily expose my identity."

As she spoke, Bai Suzhen took out a storage bag from her waist and handed it to Lin Xuan with her jade hand.

"Xuan'er, all those magical treasures are inside. Be careful and don't lose them."

Bai Suzhen's tone was gentle, clearly indicating that she was joking.

Lin Xuan looked at the storage bag and couldn't help but feel a little moved, but he didn't slow down at all and reached out his paw to take the storage bag.

"Don't worry, sister. These treasures will definitely be safe and sound with me."

Seeing this, Xiaoqing snorted softly, not very happy, but dared not say anything, so she could only retreat to the side and sulk.

After Lin Xuan received the storage bag, he examined it carefully and found that it was quite extraordinary, completely different from the storage bags he had received before.

The moment it entered the claw, it felt a strong spatial fluctuation, along with a strange fragrance. Just smelling it made it feel light and airy.

Lin Xuan hurriedly opened the storage bag, and instantly, a dazzling golden light made him subconsciously turn his head.

Almost simultaneously, system notifications began to sound in quick succession.

【Ding! 】

[Item Obtained: Premium Storage Bag (Gold)]

[Obtained magical treasures: Ten-Thousand-Year Serpent Scale Armor (Purple), Frost Serpent Fang (Gold), Thousand-Stroke Blade (Gold)...]

[Obtained Elixirs: Qi-Boosting Pill, Spirit-Gathering Powder]

Materials obtained: Whale Bone Pearl, Ancient Snow Lotus, Mysterious Yellow Stone...

[Received 15,300 taels of gold and... silver]

The system notification was so long that it was almost impossible to read it all, which made Lin Xuan's face light up with joy. He was really going to strike it rich!

He didn't read all the hints; the rest were just loose change, which was completely irrelevant to him at the moment.

He only cares about those magical treasures!

I wonder how Bai Suzhen managed to take so many treasures with her when she left the snake clan.

But no matter what, these things are now in his own pocket, and there's no way he'll return them to the snake clan!

Consider it as an advance dowry from Bai Suzhen.

Moreover, Lin Xuan finally understood why Bai Suzhen didn't store these magical treasures in her stomach.

It wasn't just Bai Suzhen who maintained her image.

A beautiful woman opens her mouth and spits out a bunch of stuff; the scene is simply too outrageous.

This is also because each of these treasures has its own unique charm.

Lin Xuan has a player system. His storage stomach is just a figment of his imagination; in reality, it's a subspace where he can store things as he pleases.

Bai Suzhen, however, was a genuine snake demon, and her stomach was indeed part of her body.

If she were to store so many treasures in her stomach, she simply wouldn't be able to control them.

Lin Xuan calmly put away the storage bag, then said to Bai Suzhen:

"Sister, I have one more request."

"When I saw you transform into human form, I couldn't help but yearn for it. Please teach me the method of transformation as well."

Upon hearing this, Bai Suzhen shook her head and chuckled softly.

All demon cultivators yearn to transform into human form, so she wasn't surprised when Lin Xuan said this.

She then took out another jade slip and handed it to Lin Xuan, then said earnestly:

"Xuan'er, I can give you the method of transformation, but you must not be overly ambitious. If you try to transform before your cultivation level is up to par, you will only suffer the consequences."

Lin Xuan nodded, adopting a look of acceptance.

"Don't worry, sister. I know what's important. I'm just taking a look; I won't do anything reckless."

Bai Suzhen felt relieved and then instructed Lin Xuan that she would be going to find her benefactor the next day and would not have time to see him again for a while, and that Lin Xuan should not come to see her.

Otherwise, it would be bad if we frightened our benefactor.

If anything happens, go outside the city to find Xiaoqing, and she will inform her.

Xiao Qing perked up again, sidled over from the side, and tilted her little head to say to Lin Xuan:

"Don't worry, if you encounter any monsters you can't defeat, just come find me."

"Even without Miss's intervention, I can protect you."

Lin Xuan almost burst out laughing at these words. When did Xiao Qing become able to pretend to be a big sister?

However, he didn't expose it, and calmly said, "If that's really the case, then I'll thank you in advance."

"You're welcome. Just remember to call me 'sister' when the time comes." Xiaoqing cheered up, returned to Bai Suzhen's side, and left with her.

Seeing Xiaoqing's smug expression, Bai Suzhen held back for a long time, but finally couldn't take it anymore.

Bai Suzhen was simple-minded, but not stupid.

She had already realized that Lin Xuan's words were just empty talk; if Lin Xuan were truly in danger, he would never ask Xiao Qing for help.

Xiaoqing heard Bai Suzhen's laughter and turned around in confusion.

"Miss, what are you laughing at?"

Bai Suzhen didn't hide it from her and told her her guess.

Xiao Qing was so angry that she bared her teeth and brandished her claws, her tail swishing incessantly on the ground.

"I'm so angry! That bastard Lin Xuan dared to tease me! Humph, next time he's really in danger, I'll definitely leave him to die!"

Seeing Xiaoqing's appearance, Bai Suzhen couldn't help but regret her actions; she shouldn't have told the truth earlier.

Now things are really messed up. Xiaoqing's opinion of Xuan'er has worsened even more, and she's likely to cause more trouble in the future.

On the other side, after watching Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing leave, Lin Xuan finally couldn't hold back any longer and slipped back into the water.

The night was deep, and the moon was high in the sky. In other cities, the night would have been completely silent long ago.

But Qiantang has been prosperous since ancient times, and even now, the river is still filled with the sounds of singing and dancing.

Lin Xuan plunged into the water with a loud splash, attracting many people to turn around and look.

Where did the noise come from?

"Someone must have fallen into the water."

"It doesn't seem like it; this commotion is too loud."

Lin Xuan paid no attention to any of this and made his way to the bottom of the water, where he found a cave.

There was originally another monster in the cave, the "Hundred-Year Giant Catfish," which was an advanced form of the "Iron-Backed Giant Catfish," with a higher level and stronger combat power.

Moreover, they also developed wisdom, knowing that occupying territory meant becoming king, and they established their stronghold in a cave.

The old catfish sensed something approaching and, thinking it was another monster trying to take over its territory, immediately charged out, waving its whiskers.

Lin Xuan is no longer the same person he used to be.

He used to rely on sneak attacks to defeat the Ironback Giant Catfish, but now he doesn't need to do that; he can just wait at the cave entrance.

The old catfish had barely poked its head out when Lin Xuan grabbed it, dragged it out of the cave, and swallowed it whole.

The old catfish didn't even put up any resistance before Lin Xuan easily digested it.

[Defeat the 'Centennial Giant Catfish' (Lv10).]

[Successfully devoured.]

[Experience points gained: 100.]

"Tsk, boring."

Lin Xuan shook his head, said nothing more, dug out a boulder with his claws, and dragged it to the entrance of the old catfish's hole.

He first crawled into the cave, and then blocked the entrance with stones.

From the outside, you would never guess that there is a hidden world behind the rock.

After doing all this, Lin Xuan finally felt relieved and took out the jade slip that Bai Suzhen had given him, and began to study it carefully.
