Bloodline Evolution System: Reign of the Dragon Snake

Chapter 170: The light within the darkness Part4

Tang Xi let out a loud shriek in surprise. She didn’t plan for this. 

She was genuinely scared out of her wits as beasts and toxic green rain started pouring down from the enormously high ceilings.

Hearing her scream, Xavier quickly cast a glance at Tang Yue, but this snake seemed surprisingly unnerved. 

She had already materialized a huge flame serpent in her hand and started waving it over her head as if she was merely swatting house flies in leisure.

Tang Yue couldn’t care less if others thought that she was stupid. 

In her eyes, they were the ones who were truly stupid.

All the major powers of the Nine Countries were searching the labyrinth, dissecting it from top to bottom.

How could nobodies like them get any priceless treasure from it? It was near impossible!

Even if they somehow manage to acquire it, surely it would be snatched right out of their hands once they step out of the labyrinth.

It was better that she rather focused on these small benefits and strengthened herself as much as she could.

After all, aside from consuming another Devil Awakening pill, her chances of improving soul strength were slim.

And even if she consumed the pill again, chances are that it might not be as effective as before.

So it was better that she focused on this and improved her soul strength.

For Tang Yue particularly, improving soul strength was more important than anything else.

This was because only soul strength gave her the opportunity to use her godly “Lucky Sticker” from the system’s shop.

The last time she had used it, the results were simply too good! 

She not only managed to escape from an impossible situation but also gained high-grade beast meat.

So, of course, she was planning on using it this time as well!

Heh. Who knows? 

With all these monsters rummaging and plundering the labyrinth tirelessly if she activates the lucky sticker… then she might be the one who ends up with the labyrinth treasure!

Tang Yue had her own plans as she resolutely materialized another flame serpent on her hand and waved it around to burn down the bats coming at them.

Unlike others, she also enjoyed the sizzling toxic rain and hunted the bats with a wide grin.

Xavier gulped. He could clearly see that this snake was also a battle maniac just like this brother!

She didn’t even flinch a bit as the drops of toxin sizzled on her skin. Instead, she seemed to be loving it.

The two monsters made a good couple indeed. 

He could tell that it was only a matter of time before she stepped onto the bigger playing ground.

No wonder his brother had personally commanded him to watch over her and protect her. 

She was a good egg and had the potential to become at least as strong as the royal Generals.

He silently nodded and stood quietly on the side, observing everything.

Tang Xi on the other hand was flipping out. 

What the hell? What the hell? What the hell?

Why is that bitch doing so good?

Even if she was not crippled anymore, she shouldn’t be able to handle so many beasts without even stepping into the Emperor realm!

Tang Xi was livid with anger and jealously. Nothing was going according to her plan!

The same prince who was looking at her as if she was a prostitute, was looking at Tang Yue as if she was his equal. How humiliating!

She was the one who was more talented and more powerful than that trash. She deserved his respect and adoration! Not her!

Ahhh! A loud scream escaped her mouth.

Since she was slightly distracted, one of the bats managed to reach her and bit down on her shoulder.

The black mist that composed the barrier outside also hovered over the bat’s fangs and it easily bit down even with the high-grade armor covering Tang Xi’s shoulders.

It seemed as if the black mist had corroded the part of the armor onto which the fangs pierced.

Everyone looked at her for a moment and nodded after understanding the bats a bit better than they previously had.

But no one stepped forward to help her. They all were busy dealing with their own swarm of bats.

Tang Xi clenched her fist tightly. 

She turned her mesmerizing figure to give Xavier one last expectant pitiful look, but the elf continued leisurely leaning back with a smile on his face.

He definitely did not look like he was going to help her out any time soon.

Fuck. Didn’t he stare at me earlier with lusty greedy eyes? Why is he acting indifferent now? She was going crazy.

She gnashed her teeth and smiled bitterly. It looked like she could only rely on herself for now.

She bit her finger and murmured something under her breath. 

A powerful pulse of energy surfaced on the spot where she stood and started forming a small tornado sort of wind swirl.

Immediately, the bats dropping from above struggled, getting caught in the powerful gushing wind.

Even the elves standing near her and battling were slightly pushed aside.

This gave Tang Xi a moment of relief. 

She quickly took something out of her spatial ring and applied it to the wound that had formed on her shoulder.

She also retrieved another recovery potion and gulped it down.

She then quickly clenched her sword again and started finishing off the bats that had gathered above her head.

“This is fine. I can do this. I will deal with the trash later.” She muttered inwardly and focused more on the problems at hand.

The group continued to fight with the bats which endlessly circled around them for about an entire hour.

Only after that, the frequency of the attack somewhat reduced.

But they realized that the attacks were not going to stop any time soon as long as they continued standing in this spot.

So they started slowly moving away further into the tunnel, inch by inch, while continuing to still fight off the undead screeching bats.

Tang Yue was very pleased with her progress. 

She had amassed a huge amount of soul wisps into her body and her venom’s toxicity was also steadily being upgraded.

“Good stuff. Good Stuff.” 

The snake’s emerald eyes gleamed brilliantly in the darkness and the group continued slowly progressing onward and inward.

But suddenly, a loud sound echoed from the distance.

SCREECH SCREEEECH
