Hu Mazi clenched his fists, a glimmer of annoyance flashed in his eyes: “Are we going to keep running like this forever?”
“Of course not.”
David opened his eyes, his gaze firm. “Running away won’t solve the problem; we have to take the initiative.”
“But we don’t even know our next target yet,” Hu Mazi sighed. “There are many forces around Mount Jiupan, we can’t possibly investigate them one by one, right?”
“No need.”
David took out an animal skin map from his pocket and spread it on the ground. “Black Wind Old Demon mentioned that Green Snake Valley and Black Demon Palace had a grudge, and the Leader of Green Snake Valley has died. Perhaps we can start with the remaining forces of Green Snake Valley to find out about other forces.”
He pointed to a sign next to Green Snake Valley on the map: “Here is the Red Snake Sect, which is said to be from the same lineage of snake demons as Green Snake Valley and has close ties.”
The leader of Green Snake Valley had been killed; The Red Snake Sect cannot remain silent. We can go there and have a look; maybe we can find some clues.”
Looking at the marks on the map, a trace of doubt flashed in Hu Mazi’s eyes: “How strong is the Red Snake Sect? What is our current situation”
“The leader of the Red Snake sect is said to be a level three Earth Immortal, but he should be no match for the leader of the Black Wind Demons,” said David. “We don’t need to force our way in. Let’s gather information from outside first, and retreat immediately if anything untoward happens.”
Hu Mazi nodded. He knew now was not the time to hesitate. Only by finding clues as quickly as possible can he take revenge on his people.
The two rested by the mountain river for half a day. After their physical strength and spiritual energy recovered, they set off towards the Red Snake Sect, following the map directions.
The Red Snake Sect is located on a mountain range called “Snake Roll Mountain,” which is winding and winding, resembling a giant python, hence the name.
The mountain was covered in dense forest, and various poisonous snakes could be seen everywhere, emitting a dangerous aura.
David and Hu Mazi carefully infiltrated the Coiled Snake Mountain, avoiding several patrols from the Red Snake Sect along the way.
The members of this patrol team were all snake demons, of various shapes and sizes. Most of them were at the first rank of the Earth Immortal Realm and were very alert.
“The Red Snake Sect’s defenses are even tighter than the Black Wind Fort,” Hu Mazi said to David in a low voice. “It seems like news of Green Snake Valley Master’s death has reached here, and they have increased their vigilance.”
“That’s perfect. This shows that they are paying close attention to Black Wind Stronghold’s actions, making it easier for us to gather information.”
David said, “Let’s look for the lone snake demon, catch him, and ask him.”
