Liu Hongluan was strangled so thoroughly she couldn't speak, her eyes bulging like a goldfish.

The other Snake Sect disciples were silent as cicadas in winter, none daring to plead for her.

In my heart, I knew the die was cast; no matter if Liu Hongluan yielded today and licked the ground, it was of no use. "Longting, Yun Hao! I'm not pleading for Liu Hongluan, I'm just speaking pragmatically. Do you want Liu Hongluan to lick the Medicinal Blood clean from the ground and then refine and purify the potion from her veins again?"

"Why not??" Yun Hao's face was as cold as frost, he said indifferently.

I had already come to terms with the facts, indifferent to carrying an ugly face for life, "Not to mention the blood spilled on the ground solidified and partially evaporated. When Liu Hongluan eats it again, part will be lost in digestion; many key ingredients will be missing. The properties of the potion are intricate; a tiny error can lead to vast discrepancies. Even if I stomach the nausea and drink Liu Hongluan's blood, it can't restore the original state."

"What you say... do you think I don't know!! But how can... I..." Yun Hao's eyes momentarily filled with blood, covered in gore, veins bulging on his forehead.

Yu Longting didn't waste words, stabbing Liu Hongluan in the heart with one swift sword, "What's the point in talking? Since it's useless, just kill her then talk."

"Yu Longting... you... you really... have the heart to kill me... I liked you... for so many years... you! Such a cruel heart!!" Liu Hongluan's pupils dilated, never believing that Yu Longting's sword would truly pierce her chest, blood streaming furiously from her lips, "Have you forgotten... the days I... served by your side?

You treat me like this today; you will treat Su Wan like this in the future... Su Wan!! I'll wait for you underground!!"

After saying this, she breathed her last.

Yun Hao treated her like something disgusting, throwing Liu Hongluan aside like trash, "Snake Lord, I thought you had high standards and a proud nature, never expected you looked at this trash, so low."

This was because Liu Hongluan claimed she served Yu Longting, with no hesitation calling Yu Longting 'Dad' earlier, now suddenly referring to him as Snake Lord!

Truly times change, never ambiguous dealing with trash snakes!

"Chang Hao, go intercept the package sent to the Lin Family." Yu Longting ignored Yun Hao's criticism, coldly ordered Chang Hao.

Chang Hao froze, said reluctantly, "But it's been so long since then, our delivery was express, surely it's already been delivered to the Lin Family."

"Then go to the Lin Family and get it back." Yu Longting said with steel-like certainty, "The potion was originally given by us."

Chang Hao mumbled, voicing softly, "What if your father-in-law already drank it, what then?"

"What did you say?" Yu Longting glanced sidelong, an imposing presence.

Overwhelmed by the pressure, Chang Hao went pale, "I... didn't say anything... Snake Lord, please calm down."

"That bottle of potion was a gesture of filial piety to Grandpa, if Grandpa's well, we're all happy, no need to retrieve it." I tugged Yu Longting's sleeve, using the gentlest and calmest tone I could manage, looking at him with pleading eyes.

Yu Longting, his snake eyes residual with fierce temperament, glanced at me.

I thought he might stubbornly stick to his stance, but surprisingly, both his hands grabbed mine simultaneously, a warmth replacing the fierce glint in his eyes, "Alright, wifey~ wifey, believe me, I absolutely have never even touched Liu Hongluan! I'm yours alone, the one crushing on Liu Hongluan is Yu Rongling, those two have a thing, nothing to do with me."

"Uh... don't worry, I won't doubt you, calm down." My mind went blank, feeling as if struck by thunder from all angles.

Not that his cheesy, to-the-death words shocked me; I'm used to hearing them anyway.

Yu Longting is one to clear misunderstandings without delay, explaining everything immediately.

But being surrounded by Snake Sect disciples, wasn't he afraid of social suicide?

Indeed, each Snake Sect disciple wore an expression like they'd seen a ghost.

Yu Longting, with his mild-mannered little wife demeanor, shattered the worldview of small snakes used to seeing his mighty, chilling, authoritative presence.

And shattered thoroughly!!

Their eyes widened bigger than headlights, snake eyes nearly fell to the ground, "Does Snake Lord privately... always coax his wife like this...?"

Yu Er was on the verge of splitting, "Bro, you're too much~ To coax your sister-in-law, you dragged me out... Though Little Fairy became a bracelet, if she heard... what would happen~"

"Weren't you the one following behind Liu Hongluan like a dog?" Yu Longting glanced at Yu Rongling, a face full of warning, "Now, you've just changed who you're licking, bootlicker!"

Yu Rongling's splitting state worsened, nearly shattering completely, "My awful dark history, can I travel back in time to give myself two slaps? Heaven spares none..."
