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

Chapter 110 An Unexpected Joy

"That Lin Xuan has been swept away by the huge wave, could he be dead?"

"Do you think the Jade Emperor will still reward us if we take his corpse to him?"

"However, finding that guy's body won't be that easy. Who knows where it might have been swept away by the huge waves?"

On a mountain far from Chentang Pass, the mountain god and the local earth god gathered together, discussing the matter.

They saw Lin Xuan's figure disappear into the waves without even a chance to resist, and their expressions varied.

"The Jade Emperor should offer a reward, right? When he issued the decree, he didn't say it had to be captured alive!" a local deity said after a moment's thought.

But his words were not accepted; the other mountain gods and land gods all shook their heads slightly.

"That's not necessarily true! If we killed Lin Xuan, the Jade Emperor certainly wouldn't say anything, but we didn't kill Lin Xuan!"

"Even if the Jade Emperor were to bestow a reward, he would only do so on Ao Bing!"

That makes a lot of sense. The landman who had spoken first turned grim, lowered his head, and stopped talking.

At this moment, a mountain god suddenly uttered a soft "Eh," a sound that drew the attention of the surrounding deities, who scoffed:

"What's wrong with you? Are you trying to fool the Jade Emperor and steal this credit?"

The mountain god shook his head, pointed at the giant wave, and hesitated to speak.

His movements were strange and baffling. Seeing this, the gods simply didn't wait for him to speak and looked in the direction he was pointing.

Now they were all wide-eyed and mouths agape.

Just as they were discussing this, the giant wave underwent a very subtle change.

The boundless waves remained enormous, continuing to surge forward with unstoppable force.

However, something unusual happened at the bottom of the wave.

Ripples kept appearing and spreading across the giant wave. Although they were not clearly visible, everyone knew that this could only be Lin Xuan.

"Is he still insisting? How ridiculous!"

The territory of these mountain gods and local deities is actually located near Chentang Pass.

Ao Bing stirred up huge waves, causing them enormous losses.

The huge wave swept through, leaving a scene of devastation. Even if their temples were unaffected, they would certainly lose a massive amount of incense offerings.

It will take a long time for Chentang Pass to recover before their incense offerings can resume.

However, instead of stopping the giant waves, they retreated.

On the contrary, Lin Xuan, who had no connection with Chen Tang Pass, stepped forward.

"This guy is just fighting like a cornered beast!" a deity said in a low voice.

The other deities immediately echoed this sentiment.

"That's right. He was incredibly lucky to have managed to block one wave. Now, with several waves coming one after another, how can he possibly gain any advantage?"

"Hmph, I think he'll be lucky to even have a whole corpse!"

They quickly calmed down and regarded Lin Xuan as a dead dragon in the futures market.

Several deities were already prepared and eager to set off to find Lin Xuan's body as soon as the great wave subsided.

"Although Lin Xuan is only a dragon and cannot compare to a true dragon, his dragon scales are still useful and can be used to make a piece of armor."

"Dragon's blood can be useful! It can be used to irrigate the land and nourish herbs."

Although they hadn't seen Lin Xuan's body yet, these immortals had already figured out how to use him.

Lin Xuan was in a terrible state beneath the giant waves; all the scales on his tail had disappeared, leaving him a bloody mess.

In some places, so much flesh and blood had been lost that the white of the bone was almost visible.

But he looked relaxed. He had succeeded. He had used all his strength to strike the bottom of the waves and carved out a huge gap in the midst of several giant waves, keeping Chentang Pass safe.

"Although the losses are considerable, it was worth it."

Lin Xuan opened the panel with a light laugh.

In order to create an opening, he lost a lot of health and mana, and his health bar was almost half empty.

"If it weren't for the dragon's energy boosting my health tenfold, I'm afraid I would have been killed by these waves!"

He shook his head and took out a few immortal herbs from his storage space and swallowed them.

Lin Xuan wasn't sure if Ao Bing would pull any more tricks. He didn't have time to slowly recover his health, so he could only use these precious immortal herbs.

This was his last remaining stock; once it was all gone, there would be none left.

"It's a pity that the immortal herb garden in the ancient Kunlun Mountains will take at least several hundred years to regrow the immortal herbs; otherwise, I might go there again."

Lin Xuan sighed inwardly.

If we were still in the game, it wouldn't matter; the Immortal Herb Garden is just a dungeon.

As long as you accept another quest that allows you to enter a dungeon, you can enter a new Immortal Herb Garden and pick the Immortal Herbs again.

However, he can't use this move in this world.

While there are indeed other bugs that could revive the Immortal Herb Garden, that would be too troublesome and dangerous.

The Immortal Herb Garden is not like the outside world; it's practically right under the noses of the celestial beings, making it far too risky.

Once the herb entered the stomach, it immediately transformed into pure magical power, nourishing the body.

Flesh and blood regenerated on the tail, and scales emerged, bringing waves of tingling and itching sensation.

Lin Xuan remained unconcerned, standing in the air, waiting silently.

"We're still alive?"

In Chentang Pass, the people watched in horror as giant waves swept overhead.

As far as the eye could see, there was seawater everywhere, and they were like empty bubbles in the sea, which could be burst at any moment.

When the boundless seawater comes crashing down, the city will fall and people will perish.

It wasn't until the wave subsided that they slowly regained their senses, speaking in fear and disbelief that they had actually escaped death.

"Did the formation work?" someone asked.

The others looked at the sky and found that the light of the great formation had long since disappeared, so they immediately shook their heads.

"That shouldn't be the case. How could that formation possibly withstand such a massive wave?"

"There must be a master in our city who stepped in to help!"

The people searched the city but couldn't find the master. Instead, they found Lin Xuan.

"That dragon didn't run away? Hmph." A young man climbed up the city wall, saw Lin Xuan in the distance, and spoke with disdain.

But then he suddenly realized something, his gaze became blank, and he changed his tone, hesitatingly saying:

"Wait a minute, did it somehow manage to protect the city gate just now?"

Just then, someone else ran over and overheard this. He looked out of the city in confusion and, upon seeing Lin Xuan, had the same thought.

It seems that's really the case.

If there really are so-called masters in the city, why would they need to hide their identities?

"this……"

Soon, the news spread, and the people who heard about it felt ashamed.

"Ah, it turns out we misunderstood that dragon!"

"In a few days, I will find someone to build a temple for him so that he can be worshipped."

Many people whispered among themselves, their words full of praise for Lin Xuan, and they began to regard Lin Xuan as the guardian deity of Chentang Pass.

【Ding! 】

Your reputation in Chen Tang Pass has reached its maximum, and all shops in the city are now unlocked.

[After completing specific tasks, you can take over the position of city lord, and perhaps receive a fixed income.]

Lin Xuan's heart stirred, and he seemed to be deep in thought.

A moment later, a smile appeared on his face.

This is truly an unexpected delight!
