My Demon Husband Is a Snake-Chapter 855: An Unspeakable Sorrow

"Yes, recently the Black Hat Protector has been managing all the major and minor affairs of our sect. If the young mistress doesn’t appear soon, there will be no one to issue orders in the Ten Thousand Poison Hall."

Great, I’ve killed another Great Protector of the Ten Thousand Poison Hall. This feud just keeps growing.

Forget it, given my current situation, more trouble is just more trouble.

I relaxed my mindset, shrugged it off indifferently, "What about the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Poisons? Why don’t you ask him to come out and lead the Ten Thousand Poison Hall?"

"The Ancestor... he’s just a legend. No one has seen him for hundreds of years. In my lifetime, I’ve only seen a painting of him once."

"Then... how did you people from the Ten Thousand Poison Hall infiltrate the Lin Family, and together with Qing Li use Forbidden Woman Witchcraft on me, causing nightmares?"

"This matter was handled personally by the Black Hat Protector at the Lin Family. Except for him, none of us know the details."

My heart sank a little, and I remained silent for a long time before waving my hand, "You can take the Black Hat’s body back."

"Yes." The person, possessed by Xiao Honghong’s gu, was extremely obedient.

I watched calmly, feeling a heavy and indescribable complexity in my heart.

Qing Li actually conspired with people from the Ten Thousand Poison Hall, willing to sacrifice the rise and fall, and honor, of the Snake Sect, and the lives of so many disciples.

All just to take my life, does she really hate me to the bone, to such an extent??

Even if her hatred for me was enormous, there were completely other ways, why involve other snakes of the Snake Sect, considering her own husband and son are from the Snake Tribe, there was absolutely no need for such actions...

"Madam... Madam, are you alright? We arrived late." Down from the mountain not too far away, a large group of earth snakes descended mightily.

The earth snakes varied in size, with most large snakes carrying disciples of the Snake Sect.

Chang Hao jumped down from one giant earth snake, the size of an excavator, and ran to my side.

I forced a slight smile to hide my suppressed emotions, "Of course, I’m fine. Order the retreat."

"Yes, Madam. But how do we deal with those Yellow Skins? You said to avoid taking lives as much as possible, but if we leave them be, it might lead to endless troubles." Chang Hao clearly had been handling major affairs before, but ever since I started overseeing some matters, 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

he had become particularly reliant on me, even for such small issues.

I initially wanted to tell Chang Hao to make the decision himself, but in the end, I let out a light sigh, "Then nail them as door gods. Whether they live or die, it’s up to fate."

The hatred between Chang Hao and the Yellow Immortal tribe runs too deep, and I’m truly afraid he might not know how to restrain himself when taking action.

Killing too many sentient beings brings bad luck.

In ancient times, the Transportation Gang used the method of nailing door gods to punish disloyal gang members.

People’s limbs would be nailed onto wooden planks and thrown into the river to drift.

They would gradually die of starvation and suffocation on the planks, finally being eaten by fish in the water, which was an exceedingly cruel method.

However, most Yellow Skins have some cultivation, and if they’re lucky,

after being tormented half to death by the current, they might have a twenty to thirty percent chance of survival.

"Great idea, Madam, I’ll handle it right away. Hey... Madam... Madam... what’s wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

In Chang Hao’s anxious calls, my body went limp, and I collapsed.

A pair of cool, long arms slipped under my knees and lifted me into the air, "Let me hold mother."

It’s Yun Hao...

I wanted to struggle, but my body felt heavy as a stone and refused to move, while in my ears, there was noisy clamoring, "Pretty girl, wait for me, I will return for sure, even if you nail me as a door god, I... won’t blame you..."

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law!! What happened to you? Are you injured or poisoned?"

"Quiet, she needs rest."

The chaos surged in my mind, and I completely lost consciousness.

The exhaustion of not having slept for a whole day and night was nothing compared to the fatigue deep within my heart.

When I confirmed that Qing Li was conspiring with the Ten Thousand Poison Hall to take my life.

For some reason, a sense of despair overwhelmed me. Even though she had tried numerous times to put me to death before, I had never felt such hopelessness.

But now, an indescribable sadness welled up within me.

I wanted to cry, but there wasn’t a warm haven where I could sob.

If only Yu Longting hadn’t been taken away by Dragon Dad, I could have vented all my grievances and fatigue in his arms, having a good cry without any care.

The time I was unconscious wasn’t very long. When I opened my eyes.

Yun Hao was holding me, walking along the mountain path of the sect.

I looked at the setting red sun, my head dizzy, "Put me down."

"I didn’t take advantage of you, there’s clothes in between." Yun Hao’s face showed a slight hurt expression.

I patted his shoulder, "I’m not that conservative, be good, don’t overthink. My legs are numb, I need to walk to restore some circulation."

"Alright." Finally, the intense emotions deep in Yun Hao’s eyes calmed down, and he set me down.

My crossbody bag’s phone started vibrating just then, I answered it while taking it out, "Lin Hang?"

"Cousin, come back to the Lin Family quickly. The old master is dying, and he wants to see you one last time." Just when I was physically and mentally exhausted, fate dealt me a head-on blow.

Following that, Lin Hang’s urgent voice on the phone continued like a machine gun, saying many things about the old master’s possible final wishes.

But it was as if my soul had left my body, my mind went blank, and I couldn’t hear a thing.
