The Stunning Mad Empress: The Useless Third Miss-Chapter 56 - The Ebon Python of the Netherworld

Little Pearl’s voice trembled slightly.

The usually arrogant little creature was showing timidity in front of Xiao Qingcheng for the first time.

Hearing this, Xiao Qingcheng squinted her eyes and instinctively pushed Little Pearl deeper into her clothes.

She then tightly gripped the Empress Sword and coldly watched the black python approaching her.

The python, coiled on the grass, flicked its blood-red tongue.

Its eyes, tinged with a faint green glow, glared menacingly at Xiao Qingcheng, who was three meters away.

Xiao Qingcheng bent her knees slightly, her muscles taut.

Her mind raced with various ways to deal with this creature.

Not far away, the rustling sounds could still be heard.

Little Pearl’s senses were particularly acute: “Master, master, those people are coming. What should we do? What should we do?”

“Don’t panic! Let me deal with this huge creature first!”

As she spoke, Xiao Qingcheng suddenly had a brainstorm and put away the Empress Sword.

Instead, she reached into the small bag at her waist and pulled out a parchment packet.

“Master, why are you taking out the silver needles?”

“To strike a snake, aim for its vital points. The best weapon is, of course, these silver needles.”

“But this is an Ebon Python of the Netherworld. Waaah, master, ordinary silver needles won’t work!”

“I never said I was going to use them directly!”

As she finished speaking, Xiao Qingcheng gathered her inner energy from her lower abdomen, channeling it through the Ren and Du meridians and into her fingertips.

Then, using the force from her fingertips, she launched all the silver needles in her hand.

At almost the same moment, the black python leaped into the air.

Under the bright full moon, a slender and tall figure faced off against a flying python in mid-air.

During this time, countless silver needles, like a sky full of sparks, illuminated the night sky.

Once the light passed,

Dozens of silver needles were embedded in the python’s vital points.

“Hisss… Hisss…”

The shrill hissing was filled with pain.

“Damn it! I used all my strength, and it barely scratched its skin?”

Xiao Qingcheng looked at the dozens of trembling silver needles embedded in the python’s vital points, seemingly about to fall to the ground at any moment.

“Waaah, master, I told you this thing is very powerful! What should we do now? What should we do?”

“Miss Qingcheng, why… aren’t you running anymore?”

Before Xiao Qingcheng had a chance to comfort Little Pearl, she heard an excited taunt from behind the python.

As the voice fell, the speaker appeared.

Xiao Cheng, holding his sword with both hands and wearing a black robe, strolled out of the forest, looking at Xiao Qingcheng with a half-smile.

The python, lying on the ground in pain, instinctively rubbed itself against Xiao Cheng.

Even its hissing was tinged with whimpers.

“If you can’t protect yourself, begging me now… is useless. If you can crawl back on your own, I’ll keep you. If you can’t, just stay here and fertilize the land.”

The python, highly intelligent, indeed began to crawl back after hearing Xiao Cheng’s words.

Xiao Qingcheng watched the python that was about to disappear,

The last remaining silver needle in her hand was slightly twirled in her sleeve, then swiftly launched.

It accurately hit the python’s tail.

Xiao Cheng looked up at Xiao Qingcheng and naturally didn’t notice this tiny detail.

“Few people in Xiao City can hurt my beast pet. Miss Qingcheng, with such talent, why would you be foolish enough to waste it on that idiot?”

Xiao Cheng squinted his eyes, his face full of confusion.

“Then give me a reason not to waste it!”

The extremely clever Xiao Qingcheng immediately retorted.

Hearing this, Xiao Cheng couldn’t help but laugh, his chest shaking.

His eyes, facing the moonlight, flickered with a hint of flame: “A girl as smart as you really makes me reluctant to harm you. But, this reason is useless to you now.

You hurt my beast pet and thwarted my plan. For these two reasons alone, you no longer have the right to live in this world.”

“Damn it! This guy is so arrogant! Master, let me go help you beat him up! I’ll beat him to death!”

“Stay put. Anyone who can subdue such a powerful black python definitely has a few tricks up his sleeve.”

Xiao Qingcheng’s face darkened as she extended her right hand.

With a flash of silver light, the Empress Sword fell into her grasp.

Xiao Cheng glanced over, his eyes gleaming with greed.

“Miss Qingcheng actually wields such high-quality spiritual weaponry? Huh! It seems I have other gains today!”

With that, Xiao Cheng vanished in a flash.

The next second,

A black blur sped towards Xiao Qingcheng.

Xiao Qingcheng nimbly stepped to the right, dodging from the source of the waterfall.

Xiao Cheng pursued relentlessly,

The black and purple figures intertwined at the top of the waterfall.

In the interplay of light and shadow, there was a deadly fight and swift, brilliant moves.

Xiao Cheng’s inner energy cultivation was slightly stronger, while Xiao Qingcheng’s swordsmanship was more agile.

One person fought with excitement and bloodlust, while the other fought with tension and caution.

“Miss Qingcheng, you truly keep surprising me more and more!”

Xiao Cheng twisted his neck, gripping his sword even tighter.

The next second,

A burst of inner energy light surged,

The long sword in Xiao Cheng’s hand came straight at Xiao Qingcheng in an extremely strange posture.

At the same time, seven or eight bright spots began to gather around Xiao Qingcheng.

“An array?”

Xiao Qingcheng squinted her eyes, incredulous at Xiao Cheng, who was only three meters away.

“To be so intelligent and yet to die here is indeed a pity. You didn’t see wrong; this is an ancient array passed down through generations of the Xiao family. Miss Qingcheng, once you’re in the array, you’re as good as dead!”

Xiao Cheng, with a bloodthirsty smile, was arrogant and overbearing.

Xiao Qingcheng, inside the array, instinctively made a move.

With a turn, she threw Little Pearl out of her arms while her back was to Xiao Cheng.

A burst of light, a whirlwind surged.

Exhausting all her energy, she managed to fling Little Pearl out of the array and into the waterfall.

“Master! Master! Master…”

Xiao Qingcheng squinted her eyes, her star-like eyes glistening with a hint of moisture: “Little Pearl, live on. My chances this time are not guaranteed. If you survive, I’ll still take you in as my little foodie.”

Little Pearl, instantly swallowed by the water, shed a few tears.

The tears mixed with the cold water and her loud roars intertwined.

Alas, the activated array directly severed the connection between Little Pearl and Xiao Qingcheng.

Under the moonlight, the circular array, containing complex symbols and geometric shapes, emitted a golden glow.

The surrounding waterfall water began to condense into thin white mist, swirling around the array.

Inside the array, a graceful and fierce figure seemed to be isolated from the entire world.

“The inner energy I exerted was absorbed by the array? What kind of ancient array is this? How can it be so eerie?”

Inside the array, Xiao Qingcheng’s mind raced through all her knowledge, trying to find a remaining way to save herself.
