Chapter Eighty-Four: The Ancient Snake
"Okay, very good!" As soon as he heard Qin Hao's report, the old man's face couldn't help but show an unconcealable excitement, and he calmed down a little before turning around and speaking to the middle-aged man, "If you succeed this time, Qin Tian, you will be counted as the first meritorious."

"Thank you for the cultivation of the Great Elder, the villain also inadvertently heard the rumors of the villagers under the mountain, so he reported to you with a fluke mentality. I didn't expect that there would really be a lone little demon here, which can only show that the elder is blessed with great fortune, and the villain does not dare to take credit. Hearing the Great Elder's praise, the middle-aged man stepped forward in surprise and said respectfully.
"This time I caught the little demon, with the inner pill in its body, I have absolute certainty that it will impact the transformation layer. Seeing that the longevity of the head of the family is coming to an end, when he abdicates, with my strength, the position of the head of the family will definitely be at my fingertips. At that time, the old man will definitely not forget the two of you. The old man looked forward to the future with high spirits, and made all kinds of promises to the two subordinates in front of him.
"Thank you to the Great Elder for cultivating, the villain will definitely follow the pace of the Great Elder and contribute to the Qin family's century-old foundation. Qin Hao and Qin Tian glanced at each other, knelt on the ground without hesitation, and swore allegiance to the old man.
"Very good, Qin Hao, you lead the way in front, let's kill it now. When the two of them stood up again, the old man immediately gave an order.
Qin Hao took out the demon hunting disk, reconfirmed the position, and then took the lead in galloping forward, followed closely by the two behind, and in the blink of an eye, the figures of the three completely disappeared into the dense forest.
It wasn't until the three of them walked away that the figures of Lin Nan and Lu Jiu walked out from behind a big tree not far away. Looking at the direction in which the three of them disappeared, Lin Nan's expression was thoughtful, and he turned around and asked, "What do you think of the conversation between the three of them just now?"
"The villain once heard before his life that there is a huge force in the martial arts, called the martial arts family, which influences the trend of the rivers and lakes. They are basically family units, relying on blood relationships, perfect inheritance and huge resources, and almost every generation will have top masters. ”
"They seldom appear in front of the world, and most of them hide behind the scenes, secretly controlling and serving several forces that they have subdued. Of course, these are just hearsay, and the villain didn't have a chance to see him because of his low status. Lu Jiu collected the information in his mind and stepped forward to report.
"Judging from the title and strength between the three of them just now, there is no doubt that they must be from a martial arts family, otherwise how could an ordinary family have so many masters. It's just that the little demon they just talked about, what exactly do they mean? Is it a unified name for the beast that has evolved into intelligence?" Lin Nan found that he knew too little about this world, and the more he went deeper, the more he felt his ignorance.
"The title is just a code name, adults don't need to wonder, anyway, their goals coincide with ours, just follow them, and the doubts in their hearts will naturally be solved. ”
"Well, with the means of you and me, as long as we keep our distance, it is impossible for them to find out easily. Although he still had lingering fears about the strength of the Great Elder, the curiosity in his heart made Lin Nan want to stop, and finally chose to continue to follow the three people in front of him to answer the doubts in his heart.
Without waiting for Lin Nan's command, Lu Jiu understood what he meant, and when he saw his figure flash, he floated towards the dense forest in front of him. They didn't go far before a majestic sound of water came into the ears of the two. Looking ahead, a steep mountain stream appeared in front of you, and the turbulent water rushed down from a height of tens of meters, forming a Yinchuan River, and finally forming a huge waterhole below the mountain stream.
The three people before were bounced quickly with the help of the complex terrain around the mountain stream at this time, and in the blink of an eye, they had gone deep into the valley floor and came to the side of the waterhole.
"Great Elder, according to the instructions, that little demon is hiding in this pool of water. Qin Hao fiddled with the demon hunting plate at the waterhole and said with great certainty.
"Okay, let's get started. As soon as the old man's voice fell, the originally relaxed expressions of several people immediately became serious. Qin Hao put away the demon hunting plate, rummaged through the bag behind him a few times, took out a small porcelain bottle, walked to the edge of the pool, poured in a few drops of red liquid with a painful face, and hurriedly buckled the cap of the bottle and put it away closely.
The originally clear water source immediately changed with the immersion of a few drops of red liquid. A patch of red suddenly appeared and spread across the waterhole at a speed visible to the naked eye, accompanied by a strong smell of blood.
Looking at the changes in front of them, Qin Hao and Qin Tian hurriedly took out their respective weapons and prepared for battle. The old man's eyes were fixed on the waterhole, with a greedy expression on his face.
When the red color spread to the entire waterhole, ripples began to appear on the originally calm water surface, and it didn't take long for these ripples to converge and form a small whirlpool. The entire surface of the water was suddenly turbulent, and the big waves slammed against the rocks on the shore.
"There's something underwater!" Lin Nan, who was hiding above the mountain stream, noticed the change in the waterhole, and with a turn of thought, he released the power of his divine soul and shot directly under the turbulent water. Under the search of soul power, within a radius of several hundred zhang of the entire waterhole, there was no secret, and all kinds of aquatic plants, fish and shrimp entered Lin Nan's mind.
"What's that?" Suddenly, a monster figure attracted Lin Nan's attention.
I saw that in the depths of the pool, a snake-like monster stared at the top of the pool with a pair of angry eyes, and the wings behind it kept waving, stirring the pool, as if to vent the anger in his heart.
"My lord, did you find something?" Hearing Lin Nan's surprise, Lu Jiu beside him couldn't help asking.
Lin Nan didn't reply, but locked on to the monster with his soul power, and kept searching for relevant information in his mind. It wasn't until he saw its face clearly that Lin Nan's heart was suddenly shocked, and he couldn't help blurting out, "Turning into a snake, there is actually a turning snake lurking in the water!"
According to the records in the inheritance, the snake: an ancient water beast, with a human face, wings, snakes, a voice like a call, beckoning big water.
And the reason why Lin Nan is so sure is precisely because of its face. Maybe it's because of incomplete evolution, and it's a little vague, but it's very close to the human face.
Coupled with its wings, it has the ability to control water. Under all kinds of signs, the identity of the monster in front of him is also clear. Although there was a big gap between its current appearance and the inheritance, this did not prevent Lin Nan from being afraid of its strength.
"Look, my lord, the monster is out!" Lu Jiu's exclamation in his ear made Lin Nan, who was in deep thought, wake up in an instant. As far as the eye can see, the waterhole at this time rises into the air like boiling water.
