Chapter 467: Stay
After leaving the temporary camp in the City of Ten Thousand Beasts, Snake Darkness returned to the territory of the Mad Snake Tribe under the cover of night.
Inside the magnificent and spacious tent, She Ming threw himself onto the fluffy, soft animal skin bed and stared blankly at the top of the tent.
City of Beasts...
Has he gone mad? Why is he talking so much to Lang Cang? Does he really expect them to kill that person?
Snake Dark casually pulled a beautiful red gem from the back of the animal skin and held it up in front of his eyes. What a joke.
However, what Lang Cang had just said didn't seem like a lie. A dark glint flashed in She Ming's eyes. He got up from the animal skin blanket, put on a cloak, and quietly left the tent, disappearing into the shadows.
He wanted to see for himself whether it was true or not.
Under the moonlight, the thorns at the entrance to the dark forest grew wildly, their jagged edges intertwined, making them appear even more eerie.
Snake Demon curled himself up into a ball and hid under the thorns. He hunched over, his round, chubby body blending seamlessly into the surrounding darkness, making him virtually undetectable.
This is the third day he has been waiting here. There hasn't been a single beast, let alone an orc, at the entrance to the Dark Forest!
There is only one entrance to see that person. If Lizard Beng really wants to come, he can only take this route. Snake Ming reached out and slapped a bug that was trying to suck his blood to death. He felt like he might have gone mad.
Otherwise, why would he leave his big, comfortable tent to sleep in and instead squat here feeding insects?
He shouldn't have believed that male orc's nonsense.
He said those were just attempts to extract more information about the South from him.
Luckily, he was smart enough not to reveal the man's true identity!
Otherwise, when that lord really wants to settle scores, he won't be able to explain himself even if he has eight hundred mouths. Although he wants to die, this is not the way to die!
He, She Ming, was going to die in a dignified and glorious way, to be the most beautiful sub-beastman to die!
I don't want to be thrown to feed the thorns by that person.
Snake Ming subtly twitched his knee. Forget it, he'd been waiting for so long and hadn't seen Lizard Beng. He was going back to sleep!
Just as he was about to get up, a cold wind suddenly rose at the entrance of the Dark Forest. Snake Darkness keenly sensed the unfamiliar aura. He cautiously raised his head and saw a lame creature not far away.
Snake Darkness looked closely and saw that it really was that old guy, Lizard Collapse. And why was a piece missing from his front paw? It must have been left untreated, covered in a mess of mud and grass, and even had some sticky blood dripping onto the ground, looking quite disgusting.
Lizard had traveled day and night, and by the time he arrived here, he was at his limit. He stood at the entrance, took a deep breath, and looked back at what was behind him, his eyes dark and unreadable.
Seeing this, Snake Demon subtly lowered his breathing and remained motionless like a wooden stake.
A moment later, seemingly oblivious to anything else, Lizard Beng turned and went into the forest.
After confirming that he had really left, She Ming breathed a sigh of relief. His lowered eyes revealed undisguised surprise. What Lang Cang of the Star Wolf Clan said was actually true. It seemed that the City of Ten Thousand Beasts was quite capable.
However, this method was not thorough enough, and some still managed to slip through the net and return.
Then, She Ming curled his lip, thinking it was a pity. If he hadn't witnessed that person's abilities, there might have been a good chance that the City of Ten Thousand Beasts could have wiped out this bunch of trash.
Snake Ming only became the chieftain of the Mad Snake Tribe this year. Before that, the chieftain of the Mad Snake Tribe was his nominal father, but now he's probably been gnawed to bits.
After that person died, he took over the Mad Serpent Tribe and became the chieftain whom everyone feared and respected. Only then did he have the right to glimpse some of the secrets of the three major tribes, including that great man.
They all called him the Shadow God, and the three major tribes had been searching for fragments of the Holy Crystal for this great man.
However, he never saw the man's true face.
When Snake Demon first visited him as the chieftain of the Mad Snake tribe, all that appeared was a tree-man twisted from thorns and vines.
But even a tree-man felt an immense pressure emanating from it.
Snake Demon dared not even imagine what kind of beastman he would be if he revealed his true form.
Not to mention that the Shadow God is currently fusing two fragments of the Holy Crystal. Once he truly masters the power of the Holy Crystal fragments, no matter how powerful the orcs of the City of Ten Thousand Beasts are, they will be nothing more than laughable clowns in his eyes.
Snake Demon squatted quietly on the ground, seemingly recalling the scene from that time.
The treant looked down on him, thinking that he had only managed to kill his father and take the throne by chance, and that he was just a sub-beastman, so most of the time he wouldn't entrust him with any tasks.
Since he took over as chief of the Mad Serpent tribe, he has received very few instructions.
However, She Ming didn't like him much either. By not making him work, he was able to enjoy a peaceful life!
However, the orcs of the Serpent Tribe seemed to have a lot of complaints about not being given important positions, but they dared not show it openly because of his intimidation.
His delicate profile, hidden in the shadows, had a somewhat gloomy look, if only he weren't outmatched...
After a long while, Snake Demon stood up again, glanced at the entrance of the Dark Forest with a deep gaze, then turned and left, his cloak rustling in the cold wind.
He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that ever since he saw that great man last time, the power in the treant seemed to have diminished, and even the oppressive aura in the dark forest had faded.
Although they couldn't do anything overtly, they could still secretly tip off the orcs in the City of Ten Thousand Beasts.
In any case, he won't lose out no matter who wins in the end.
He remembered that the Star Wolf Clan prisoners who were brought back two years ago were imprisoned in the back mountain of the Golden Scorpion Guard.
I imagine Lang Cang would be very interested in this news.
