The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine

Chapter 659: Chapter 659: The Shadow Snake Appears!

This sudden change completely caught the Bian family off guard. The Serpent Lake, which had become calm and peaceful, suddenly erupted with thousands of water ghosts!

Moreover, among these water ghosts, there were many high-ranking ghosts dressed in blue and purple.

In an instant, all the members of the Bian family in the lake were entangled by the water ghosts, and were bitten by them.

Below, there were water ghosts gripping their legs, rendering them unable to escape, while above them, a dense swarm of water ghosts were tearing at and biting them.

Those semi-grandmasters had almost no time to resist and were quickly torn into shreds.

Bare, bloodied bones floated on the lake surface.

Only the three ancient martial arts grandmasters were still putting up a fight.

Their bodies gushed with True Qi. They constantly struck with their palms and fists, smashing the water ghosts who entangled them into pieces. But the number of water ghosts was too great, they were fearless in the face of death, charging wave after wave.

Furthermore, the Yin energy in the lake water corroded people’s will, and these three ancient martial arts grandmasters couldn’t hold out for much longer!

“Cousin! Save us! Save us!”

They let out cries of desperation for help.

“Kill them all!” Bian Mudong’s eyes were filled with uncontrollable rage. He unleashed a torrent of True Qi punches, creating a flurry of water splashes on the lake surface. Countless water ghosts were shattered by his blows.

The other ancient martial arts grandmasters on the shore were also shouting while launching airborne attacks with their True Qi.

There were also various forms of gunfire, from assault rifles to handguns and sniper rifles. However, firearms seemed to inflict limited damage on the water ghosts. They punched out shocking holes in the water ghosts’ bodies, spurting ghost blood, but unable to completely annihilate them.

“Ah~~~~!!!” In the water, a member of the Bian family, an ancient martial arts grandmaster, was in a state of exhaustion. He was finally throttled by several water ghosts and pushed under the water, his throat ripped open.

“Cousin…” The doomed man of the Bian family let out a mournful howl, sinking just like a sunken warship, instantly generating a fountain of blood.

“Taoist Master Zhuo! You said you eliminated all the ghosts in Serpent Lake, didn’t you? Why is this happening? Why is this happening?” Bian Mudong lost control of his emotions. He grabbed Zhuo Lengzhou by the collar, his face ferocious, like a man-eating beast.

“I…I…I don’t…don’t know…” Zhuo Lengzhou was panic-stricken, his face had turned pale, his whole body trembling. “Spare me… I still have value to the Bian family…”

“Die!!!” Bian Mudong landed a blow on Zhuo’s chest. His fierce True Qi gushed into his body like a force of nature, reducing his meridians, bones, and internal organs to a heap of pulped flesh!

Bian Mudong casually tossed Zhuo Lengzhou’s corpse into Serpent Lake.

Immediately, dozens, if not hundreds, of water ghosts swarmed over, grabbing onto Zhuo Lengzhou’s corpse, chomping it down greedily. In just a few moments, his flesh and blood were sucked dry, leaving behind a skeleton marinated in blood.

By that time, all three ancient martial arts grandmasters of the Bian family in the lake were dead, their bodies nowhere to be found.

“Well… just now, that guy’s talisman merely drove low-level water ghosts to the surface. The real ghosts were hiding at the bottom of the lake,” Huang Xiaolong said casually. “The Yin energy is so strong in the Serpent Lake that the effectiveness of any talisman drawn by ordinary Taoists would significantly decrease. Probably only one or two out of ten would remain effective. If it were in a normal lake, his talisman could drive out all the Yin snakes and water ghosts… but in Serpent Lake…he just couldn’t do it.”

“Why didn’t you say something earlier?!” In Bian Mudong’s eyes, a merciless ferocity flared. He was seething with anger, and torrents of True Qi burst forth from his body.

The Bian family had suffered massive losses on their journey into the Serpent Ridge. His plan was to capture Huang Xiaolong and force every bit of information from him. But because they had to gather medicinal herbs and deal with the Yin snakes, he had been holding back until now. At last, he was at the end of his patience!

They had lost too many Grandmasters on this trip!

Dozens of semi-grandmasters died, and several ancient martial arts grandmasters were also killed!

Meanwhile, Huang Xiaolong was chattering away blithely, wearing a smug grin. How could Bian Mudong possibly keep his cool?

And it wasn’t just Bian Mudong. Everyone in the Bian family was glaring at Huang Xiaolong with eyes full of hatred.

“Well, why would I have to remind you?” Huang Xiaolong’s grin grew wider. “Speaking of which, you of the Bian family are my enemies. You poisoned my wife once, and I haven’t even settled the score yet.”

“Fine! Fine! Very good!” Bian Mudong sneered maliciously as he stepped towards Huang Xiaolong. “If that’s the case, then everyone from the Magic Association will be buried here today. As for you, Huang Xiaolong, I will disable you, take you back home, and interrogate you thoroughly. I’ll use all forms of torture on you until you are so beaten that you can’t cry.”

Bian Mudong finally revealed his cruel intents to Huang Xiaolong.

Now, he still had the strength to fight against Huang Xiaolong! In addition to him, the Bian Family’s side still had as many as 8 ancient martial arts grandmasters, about 60 to 70 quasi-grandmasters, most of whom were armed with submachine guns, flamethrowers, grenades, and other extremely lethal weapons.

On Huang Xiaolong’s side, there were only Ma Chuxia, Xia Ying, and 50 Taoists.

The disparity in strength between the two sides was enormous!

“Little Long~~” Ma Chuxia and Xia Ying, one on each side, pledged to fight to the death with Huang Xiaolong.

The 50 elite members of the Mysterious Association were also prepared for a deadly battle.

However, Huang Xiaolong’s expression was incredibly relaxed and comfortable. He laughed and said, “Don’t be in such a rush~~~You listen.”@@novelbin@@

Just as his words fell!

Boom~~~~~~~!!

A column of water erupted sky-high from Canglong Lake!

A massive shadow loomed!

This shadow, it even blocked the moonlight, causing the area to be shrouded in profound darkness, evoking an extreme sense of terror.

A heart-pounding feeling gripped the people by the lake.

Bian Mudong and the others instinctively turned their heads to look!

In the lake, a cluster of shadows shot out! Upon closer inspection, it was a giant python!

More than half of the python’s body protruded from the surface of the lake, and a small part was still underwater. It should measure about 20 meters in length!

20+ meters, that’s quite equivalent to the height of some buildings!

It was incredibly robust, and its pair of blood-red eyes resembled two large red lanterns, flickering with a near-human expression of bloodlust, mockery, and anger.

It carried a heavy breath, and each exhalation sprayed out a white mist.

In addition, its entire body was covered with black scales.

These scales glittered with a sharp light, as unyielding as steel machinery.

On its body, there was a constant emission of cold air, causing a thin layer of ice to form on the lake’s surface.

This scene, it was almost frozen in time!

This behemoth is none other than that—the Shadow Snake!

The snake of legend! The ferocious snake!

The next second, the Shadow Snake lowered its head, directly bit into a dozen Water Ghosts floating on the lake, and began to chew, blood spurting out.

It was actually toying with the Water Ghosts as snacks!

The mockery in its eyes became more intense.

The Water Ghosts dared not run, dared not move, they just let themselves be slaughtered, their faces all showing a gruesome, eerie smile.

Next! The Shadow Snake actually swam towards the people on the shore!
