Beginning Of Multiverse Saga-Chapter 350: Situation Of Snake Tribe

Soni had her subordinates prepare some fresh water and towels for the group. Then, they draped a wool carpet across the carriages.

All sorts of fine desserts and fruits were arranged on a table, and the tableware seemed to be made of jade or ivory. All sorts of precious, fragrant incense filled the area with a simple and elegant aroma. Just one whiff could make one feel full of ki; they were clearly beneficial to cultivation.

Charlotte and Diana secretly exchanged a look. This Alina’s usual lifestyle really was quite extravagant! Even though the two of them had high statuses, one came from a dao sect, and the other came from the Devil Sect. Neither one paid much attention to their normal day to day affairs. Compared to Alina, the two women almost felt like country bumpkins.

But they also noticed that Alina’s expression was the same as usual, and she wasn’t showing off in front of the two of them on purpose. They then felt a bit more relieved.

Just then, Alina asked Soni a question; the maid gave Charlotte and Diana a troubled look.

Alina said, "They’re our own people; it’s okay to speak your mind."

Charlotte and Diana’s expressions were strange. If they had heard that the previous day, both women might have spoken up in protest. But after they had fought alongside each other, and considering their relationship with Sharky, that description didn’t seem wrong.

Soni looked at Charlotte and Diana in surprise. As Alina’s personal maid, she obviously knew who Alina usually spent her time around. These two were so beautiful and stunning. If Alina had friends like these, how could she not know about them?

That meant they could only be Sharky’s friends. She secretly asked, "Are these two master Sharky’s lovers?"

At the same time, she really felt incredible admiration. Sharky is really formidable; he actually has so many beauties of this level at his side! The most important part was that the madam didn’t even look unhappy about it. Who would believe it even if news of such a thing got out?

Alina nodded with her. But also warned her to never disclose about them.

She quickly warned the maid, "You are not permitted to speak about them. And also try not to offend these two in the future, do you understand?"

These two definitely weren’t easy to deal with. Meanwhile, even though one was the leader of the orthodox faction, the memory of being hunted down was still fresh in her mind. There was even less of a need to talk about the other one; she was a famous butcher from the evil dao. Not even Alina would be able to do anything if her own clansmen ended up offending the two.

Soni stuck out her tongue playfully, then began to discuss the matter at hand. "After we left the city, we went straight to the mines, but we did not expect so many things to have happened here. However, there was nothing we could do about it and could only brace ourselves..."

Soni couldn’t help but start sobbing, after explaining the details, how few Frost clan members had passed away to save them..

Charlotte remained silent for a long time. She had stubbornly insisted on distinguishing between man and fiend. But seeing that, they also have pain and grief like humans.

Could it be that the beliefs I obstinately clung to have been wrong all along?

Diana was thinking about something else. The Frost clan’s people all had strong morale and camaraderie. With such cohesiveness, even if the Frost clan temporarily collapsed, they would rise again soon afterward. The Holy Sect would benefit a lot if they were to help Alina while she was down and out.

Alina stroked Soni’s head and said, "Let us take good care of their families once we return. I will also build a monument of heroes for these brave warriors, so the Frost clan’s people will remember their sacrifices."

"Thank you, madam," Soni said while wiping away her tears.

Alina sighed and said, "This is what I owe them; why do you need to thank me?"

After the two exchanged some more emotions, Soni then continued, "Later on, we encountered the attacks of those strange worms, and suffered many casualties. We tried our best and managed to kill one, but that seemingly poked the hornet’s nest. More and more of the strange worms rushed at us. But on the brink of despair, we heard an extremely frightening roar. The strange worms seemed to have been summoned by something, and all of them pulled back. That was how we managed to survive by the skin of our teeth."

The other three women all looked at Sharky with annoyed expressions when Soni said that; their gazes were filled with a mix of reproach and embarrassment. They all knew that the reason why those worms had withdrawn was because the mother worm had been fed those disgusting drugs by Sharky. They had all rushed back to ’devote their bodies’.

Sharky laughed awkwardly and remarked, "Even though the process was a bit of a mess, the result was still good overall, right? Soni, the mine has collapsed, so we plan to visit the Snake race, I will stay there, while these two will take a detour back to the human world from that side. Is there anything we should pay attention to?"

"Master, the fiend race territory and human territory are separated by the Great Snowy Mountain, which is a place full of endless dangers. So, if they enter from there, it will mean almost guaranteed death. That is why other methods must be relied on to travel between them." Soni told him, after knowing that both of them were her master’s lovers, she didn’t want them to get in trouble.

"There are some secret passages between the territories: For example, the underground transport formation between the Snake race and the Frost clan in the mines. However, such passages are all hidden with absolute secrecy."

Sharky was a bit shocked when he heard the explanation. No wonder that passage had felt a bit different from walking through a normal mine tunnel. So he had ended up walking through something like a wormhole!

He gave Diana and Alina a look. He saw that their expressions were unaffected, as if they already knew that. Sharky felt a bit ashamed; he had been focused on the heavy pressure behind him and hadn’t carefully sensed his surroundings.

Soni continued, "Apart from those secret passages, the fiend and human races’ public intersection is Desolate City."

"Desolate City?" Sharky asked curiously. He had spent some time cramming knowledge about the Twin Dragon Country into his mind, but his knowledge regarding the fiend races was quite vague. He hadn’t heard of the name before.

Alina helped him by explaining, "Desolate City is to the southeast of the fiend races’ territory, a buffer zone between them and humans. Of course, it is also a well-known unregulated area. If the fiend or the human races want to enter each other’s respective areas, they all pass through Desolate City. It is a place where crooks are mixed in with honest folk, and extremely dangerous."

Diana added, "That’s not a big deal. What’s more troublesome is how we’re supposed to get to Desolate City from the Snake race territory. It seems we’ll have to pass through the Fiend King Court."

With her and Charlotte’s cultivation, even if they were injured, they would recover a bit of strength by the time they reached Desolate City. They naturally weren’t scared of the city’s dangers.

But if they had to pass through Fiend King Court, that was a place that contained many powerful beings. For example, the Fiend Emperor was a cultivator on par with Henry. They wouldn’t be able to win against him even if they were at their strongest. Passing through that area was just way too dangerous.

Charlotte’s brows furrowed; she was clearly thinking the same thing.

Soni didn’t understand. She asked, "Why would it be troublesome to pass through the Fiend King Court? In my opinion, the most troublesome place would be the Snake race territory."

"Inside the Snake race territory?" Forget about Sharky, even Charlotte and Diana were now curious. Wasn’t Alina the clan leader? Why would there be any issues?

Soni explained worriedly, "Even though madam has the Medusa bloodline within her and is the clan leader in name, she has always preferred to stay on the human side. Rarely does she come here. She only helps transport some lifestyle goods that are in short supply over to the Snake race. Meanwhile, the Snake race’s important affairs are decided by some other elders with prestige. As time has passed, madam’s title no longer carries any real weight, and all of the authority among the Snake race actually belongs to those elders."

"Among the elders, the ones with the greatest influence are Elder White and Elder Blue. They have always been quite ambitious. In the past, they might have acted somewhat subservient because they needed to rely on the madam for a supply of goods, but now that the madam has gone through all of that in Cloudcenter City, if she returns to the Snake race, they might start to harbor wicked thoughts."

Diana and Charlotte were both individuals who controlled their own clans. They immediately understood how tricky dealing with such a situation was. Alina had already had all of her authority snatched out from under her.

"Don’t worry about that, since I am already here, everything will be gone in the right way, what Elder White and Blue. If they honestly give the authority back to Alina, that will be good, if not, then I will show them why the flowers were mostly red."

Sharky said it, while comforting Alina.

Hearing his words, both Charlotte and Diana give a laugh, Alina also feels comfortable.

She knew, with his husband here, there was nothing to worry about.

"Since Sharky has said. Then, there is nothing to be worried about. Let us return to the clan first and cross that bridge once we get there," Alina replied with extreme calm.
