Chapter 1560: Chapter 1553
The Pockmarked Face Vice Chairman also looked grave.
She examined Xin Lin’s wound.
There was a snake bite mark on Xin Lin’s palm.
However, the blood oozing from the bite was bright red, showing no trace of poison.
Wan Ying clearly applied medicine, why was she bitten?
"Break the jar!"
The Pockmarked Face Vice Chairman gritted her teeth and ordered the black jar to be smashed open.
Once the jar was smashed open, the Grass Python inside began crawling everywhere.
The Crane Crown Snake was curled up at the bottom of the jar, trembling and too scared to move.
It seemed obviously frightened.
"It was this snake that bit Wan Ying to death."
Xin Lin pointed at the small Crane Crown Snake.
"Nonsense! Wan Ying can’t have been bitten to death by it."
The Pockmarked Face said coldly, Wan Ying had definitely applied a special Snake Repellent Powder.
"How do you know it wasn’t this snake? Look, it’s ready to bite again."
Xin Lin said, stepping closer to the Crane Crown Snake.
The Crane Crown Snake smelled Xin Lin approaching and immediately became alert, raising its body.
The Crane Crown Snake is venomous and highly aggressive, no doubt about that.
But Xin Lin had used Insect Powder made from the Feitian Centipede.
Back in Yunshui City, Xin Lin caught a batch of Feitian Centipedes.
She recalled the Mystical Medicine Book mentioning that powder made from Poison Insects could repel insects and beasts.
She captured several Feitian Centipedes, dried them, ground them into powder, but never had the chance to use it.
Unexpectedly, this trip to Wangjing proved the powder immensely useful.
The Feitian Centipede cultivated by the Poison Saint was indeed a terrifying existence among Poison Insects.
Originally, the Crane Crown Snake intended to attack Xin Lin, but upon scenting the powder from the Feitian Centipede on Xin Lin, it became fearfully discouraged.
As for Wan Ying, she inadvertently got some of the Feitian Centipede poison powder on her wound after being bitten by the Grass Python, and the venom, bloodstream fatal, took her life immediately.
With Xin Lin’s movement, the scent on her grew even stronger.
The Crane Crown Snake was so terrified it seemed to want to flee.
The scene soon turned into chaos.
"Master Chen, watch out!"
People scattered instantly, even the Pockmarked Face Vice Chairman dared not approach the Crane Crown Snake.
Yet, at that moment, the small snake shot toward Master Chen.
Master Chen was drunken, barely able to move, let alone dodge.
Xin Lin had a favorable impression of Master Chen and did not wish for that old man to be poisoned.
But before she could act, she heard Master Chen saying in his drunken stupor.
"Come on, little thing."
And with that, he opened his mouth, spat out a mouthful of wine with a "puff."
The wine did not scatter but turned into a wine arrow, pinning the small snake down.
"I’ve just been wanting a snake for wine making, and now you’ve delivered yourself, you’ll do."
Master Chen staggered over, grabbed the Crane Crown Snake.
In his hands, the Crane Crown Snake couldn’t resist at all and was directly tossed into the wine gourd.
After tossing it in, Master Chen shook the wine gourd, and initially, there was a hissing sound, but soon, the Crane Crown Snake became silent.
Master Chen seemed oblivious to anyone around him, taking up the wine gourd and gulping down several swallows.
As he drank, he complimented the wine.
"Good wine, truly good wine."
The toxic Crane Crown seemed to have no effect on him.
Xin Lin was left stunned.
This old man was really something!
"Master Chen, are you alright?"
Only then did the Pockmarked Face Vice Chairman have the courage to approach, she looked at Master Chen, then at Xin Lin, her eyes filled with frustration.
