"So unless there's something urgent or they're here specifically for Evil Wind, no one would think of entering Shaman Village. I reckon the lord is likely the only exception."

Upon hearing this, Wang Wu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Wuchen came here five hundred years ago, while the Big Black Pig has been in Shaman Village for three thousand years. Perhaps five hundred years ago it was in seclusion, or perhaps it truly does not regard a Human Race First-Grade Cultivator as worthy of its attention.

From its perspective, other than Old Man Sha, the so-called Eldest Master Cangyun, and that Old Turtle, who else is worth acknowledging?

This super Great Demon from the same era as the Bear Demon Emperor—if it wanted to plot against him, would it even need to go to such lengths?

However, the Big Black Pig might really know something but doesn't want to tell him, which is why it emphasized that in Shaman Village, he is indeed safe.

Ah, it's all because of this snake, making him feel like a bird startled by the mere twang of a bow.

"You don't need to say anything more, I won't kill you, but I'll wait until your time is up before I leave. If you don't die, I'll personally send you off."

Upon hearing Wang Wu say this, She Shoujiu just laughed, completely indifferent.

"It doesn't matter, lord, it really doesn't matter. As long as you stop blindly trusting any Snake Guard from now on, I can die with my eyes closed knowing I've completed my life's mission."

Watching the wildly smiling She Shoujiu, Wang Wu realized he truly couldn't do anything to him, so he had to change the subject.

"How did you know about Ah Qing? How can you be sure he is a double agent?"

"No, lord, I never asserted that Ah Qing is a double agent. However, if there's even the slightest possibility, then mistakes must be made, rather than omitted. All Snake Guards must die, including me, they must all be wiped out to prevent danger from sprouting, so it benefits you most, my lord."

"As for how I know about Ah Qing? Is it difficult? That naive, foolish little girl actually left Bear Race Snake Guard-specific coded messages on the Snake Guard Mark, recording all events before and after! And instructed the next Snake Guard to take good care of you."

"All I can say is, each generation of Bear Race Snake Guards is worse than the previous. If it were our generation of Snake Guards, this alone would be enough to wipe out all three hundred Snake Guards in that group! I don't even know who trained them?"

"So, I suspect a double agent has infiltrated Ah Qing's batch of Snake Guards. Is there an issue with that?"

The more She Shoujiu spoke, the angrier he became, but then he glanced at Wang Wu's odd expression, and suddenly laughed again, "My lord, what are you thinking?"

"I'm thinking, why are you so fearful of the Snake Race you originated from? As if you're grinding your teeth wanting to exterminate the Snake Race."

She Shoujiu didn't answer but questioned back, "Lord, which race do you think is currently the strongest among the Four Seas and Eight Wildernesses?"

"Of course, it's the Human Race," Wang Wu stated without hesitation.

"Then do you know what the Human Race fears the most?" She Shoujiu asked softly.

This time, it was Wang Wu's turn to look terrified.

Because the answer was almost evident.

Humans fear snakes!

This could be verified even on Earth. No matter what they say, practically speaking they aren't afraid, but when faced suddenly with something resembling a snake, their primary instinct won't fail because it's a fear inscribed in their genetic code.

"So, lord, do you know why you're fond of Ah Qing?" She Shoujiu suddenly asked again.

"What!"

"Because it's your subconscious fear. And the best way to conquer fear is to fall in love—with it!"

"Do you know why Snake Guards have the highest success rate in becoming Spirit Beasts for the Human Race, even higher than Fox Spirits? Because most Human Race Cultivators have this subconscious fear. They call it the Innate Heart Demon!"

"Admit it, lord, inherently, you're like someone pampered and naturally kind, with some cunning but lacking determination."

What a devil snake it truly is!

At this moment, Wang Wu only wanted to flee in panic.

But She Shoujiu gently called him back, "Lord, I truly don't have much time left, cherish the time. Let's begin with learning to refine basic Five Elements Spirit Pills."

"What?"

"Need me to explain? If you had mastered how to refine Five Elements Spirit Pills, you wouldn't have brought out Seventh Grade Spiritual Energy Practice Pills, you know? Using Seventh Grade Spirit Fruits and Spirit Grasses to concoct Spiritual Energy Practice Pills is like a child holding gold in a bustling market, or like a commoner who gains a treasure but lacks the insight to keep it."

"So let's stop being impulsive, shall we? The last lesson already taught us how to maintain the highest vigilance; now let's move to the next lesson."
