Chapter 157 A glimmer of hope
Chapter 157 A glimmer of hope
Yun Nian's mood suddenly became extremely depressed.
Her surprise was not responded to. She only saw Yunxi on the opposite side. Without saying a word, he pulled out a long black whip from his waist with a "snap" sound and said through gritted teeth: "Yunnian! Today we will settle all new and old grudges together!"
Before he finished speaking, Yunxi immediately activated the supernatural power in his hand, injected it into the whip, and then rushed towards Yunnian at lightning speed.
However, Yun Nian reacted extremely quickly. She turned into a white snake in an instant and easily avoided Yun Xi's attack.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Since his cultivation level improved, Yunxi’s strength is now at the same level as Yunnian.
Every time Yunxi launched an attack, Yunnian was able to dodge or block it skillfully. One of them attacked and the other defended, and it was difficult to tell who was better.
The fierce fighting between the two soon attracted the attention of other members of the snake clan.
Not long after, a steady voice came from a distance: "Stop!"
As soon as the words fell, Yun Nian, who was originally at a disadvantage, felt like she had grabbed a life-saving straw. A hint of surprise and pride flashed across her face. Then she transformed into a half-human, half-beast form and nimbly hid behind the burly man.
"You!" Yunxi did not give up. She tightly grasped the whip in her hand and planned to attack again, but the burly man just waved his hand casually and suppressed her easily.
At this moment, Yunxi felt a strong pressure and her body was completely unable to move, but her face remained firm and unyielding: "Chief, you shouldn't favor Yunnian just because she is your daughter!"
"Before, she cruelly beat me up and abandoned me in the forest for a man of unknown origin."
"She is so cold-blooded and cruel, and she killed her sisters. I just want to teach her a lesson, but you just blindly protect her without even asking the reason. Is this what you, as the head of the clan, call fairness and justice?"
It is worth mentioning that the huge man standing in front of him is the patriarch of the snake clan and also Yunxi’s uncle.
Yunxi's eyes were already blurred with tears at this time, and her beautiful eyes were fixed on the burly man in front of her.
He was silent for a moment before he slowly said, "Don't go too far! If Nian'er really made a mistake, she should be punished, but you should not be the one to carry out the punishment!"
The meaning of this sentence is very clear. Even if Yun Nian needs to be punished, it is not Yun Xi's turn to do it.
She has no qualifications at all!
Yunxi was so angry that she almost bit her teeth, but she didn't dare to refute.
Because the pressure exerted on her became heavier, she even felt a sweetness in her throat and almost vomited blood.
At this moment, it became extremely difficult for Yunxi to even say a word, so she had no choice but to give up the idea of struggling.
She secretly encouraged herself in her heart, trying her best to fight against the powerful force pressing on her, while her eyes were filled with unwillingness and resentment.
In this way, the two sides fell into a brief stalemate.
After a long time, the snake chief sighed loudly, then put away the pressure on Yunxi, turned to look at the person behind him, and asked calmly: "Why don't you stay at home so late? What are you doing out here alone in the middle of the night?"
"I, I..." Yun Nian stammered, looking quite uneasy. At the moment, she was completely confused and had no idea how to explain all this to her father.
At this moment, Yunxi sneered in front of him: "The clan leader is busy with many things, I'm afraid he doesn't know that your precious daughter not only brought back an unidentified man, but also let him live in her boudoir!"
After these words were spoken, the eyes of the snake clan leader instantly became deep, and his sharp eyes like a hawk fell directly on Yun Nian, and he asked in a stern tone: "Is it true?"
Yun Nian was flustered by her father's questioning. She lowered her head, not daring to look her father in the eye, and silently agreed with what Yun Xi said.
In fact, Yun Nian did arrange for Shen Sidu to rest in her room, but she originally planned to spend the night outside the house.
Looking back, when she rushed out of the cave, there was actually a flash of regret deep in her heart.
If she had not left the cave, would something have happened between them tonight...
However, whenever the image of Shen Sidu's gentle, modest appearance emerged in Yun Nian's mind, he would feel timid, fearing that his actions would offend him, and even more worried about seeing contempt or displeasure in his eyes.
Therefore, Yun Nian could only grit her teeth and endure it silently. Who would have thought that she would meet Yun Xi who had escaped death not long after she went out for a stroll.
As soon as he saw Yunxi, Yunnian couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his heart, but due to the situation, it was not a good time to vent. He just glared at the other person secretly and silently uttered two words with his mouth: "Bad luck!"
Yunxi naturally understood what she meant immediately. Her beautiful eyes widened and her face was full of disbelief.
However, she was not angered. She just snorted coldly, turned around and left quickly without looking back.
Since the clan leader still chose to favor Yun Nian, she decided to make a big deal out of this matter.
After all, as a junior, it was difficult for her to have a say. But in this huge Xiyao Mountain, there would always be someone with enough say to administer justice.
Yun Nian, this heartless guy, treated his own sister so cruelly that he even abandoned her in a dangerous forest without caring about her life or death!
Yunxi has never been the kind of person who is willing to swallow her anger, she must avenge this!
She wants Yun Nian to pay the price for what she has done!
"What a great show!"
Mu Nanyue was lazily lying on the chaise longue in the system space, leisurely throwing a grape into her mouth from time to time, looking so comfortable.
She just calmly watched everything that happened in the outside world, without any sign of anxiety. Instead, she waited patiently, wanting to see how Shen Sidu would deal with the current predicament.
In fact, Mu Nanyue herself also wanted to go to the bottom of the cliff to find out if she could find a passage to teleport back. Unfortunately, she didn't know the exact location of that place.
Moreover, Shen Sidu had already fallen into a coma, and knew nothing about the topography of the Beast World Continent. Perhaps, only the sisters Yunxi and Yunnian knew the mystery.
However, at this moment, the new and old hatreds between the two people are intertwined and erupt at the same time, I am afraid that this trip will be delayed...
