47: Chapter 47 I Have a Sword That Can Slay the Snake 47: Chapter 47 I Have a Sword That Can Slay the Snake The residents of Pingyun City felt that today was more bustling than it had been in hundreds of years.

First, at noon, Mu Can had a great battle with Mu Zi Li, giving the residents of Pingyun City a showdown that could be considered the peak of the city’s last century.

By evening, a giant snake that could obscure the sun and sky appeared on Pingyun Mountain.

Even just glimpsing the giant snake from afar could cause one’s heart to pound with fear.

And there, someone was actually battling the giant snake.

“You insignificant human, if you kneel down and beg for mercy now, I might let you die a bit more comfortably.

Otherwise, I’ll show you what true pain is.” The giant snake’s body was as large as a small hill, gently swaying its body and stirring up a gale, its roaring voice thundering like thunder.

“Little snake, how long has it been since you brushed your teeth?

It stinks to death.” Faced with the stench, Mu Can almost vomited his dinner and quickly raised his True Qi around his body to protect himself, which made it slightly better.

“Roar.” Hearing Mu Can daring to mock him, Snake Venerable let out an enraged roar, and the whole Pingyun Mountain seemed to tremble under this roar.

Among the onlooking Mu Family disciples below, those with slightly weaker strength felt dizzy under this roar, falling to the ground and being stunned.

“This snake is too terrifying.

Even if the elder came out of seclusion, it wouldn’t help.” Initially excited to watch the show, the Mu Family disciples quickly dispersed and fled for their lives.

They guessed right.

With the strength of the Snake Venerable, even the ancestors coming out of seclusion would only be a bite for him.

Only the elder of the Martial Pavilion would have a chance to slay the Snake Venerable.

The short one, seeing the Snake Venerable activating its racial talent, painfully covered his eyes, cursing, “Snake Venerable, this time you’ve really screwed me over.”

With such a commotion, Pingyun City would definitely feel it, and if Old Xuanyuan came, no one would be able to leave alive.

“Why are you yelling so loudly?

What’s all this noise?” Mu Can, thumb in ear, said disdainfully.

Mu Can’s intention was obvious.

He wanted to provoke the Snake Venerable severely, making him lose his rationality.

“Purple Cloud, you don’t have to make a move, just lend me the Soul-Slaying Dagger for a second.” Mu Can spoke in his Sea of Consciousness, and the next second, a dagger emitting a blue light appeared in his hand.

It was indeed the Soul-Slaying Dagger that Purple Cloud had sent over after hearing Mu Can’s request.

The Soul-Slaying Dagger emitted a faint blue light, making it look even sharper.

Although the Soul-Slaying Dagger was only forged from materials from a layer of the Reincarnation Pearl by Purple Cloud, it was extremely suitable for facing monsters like the Snake Venerable with high physical defensive power.

Otherwise, with the defensive power of the Snake Venerable, if there were no divine weapons, there would be no way to break through the tough scales of the Snake Venerable.

Unable to break defense, let alone talk about killing it.

The world is fair.

Heaven gave the Snake Venerable a phenomenal defense ability, but in contrast, their souls were much weaker.

The Soul-Slaying Dagger can be said to be the nemesis of high-defense demon beasts like the Snake Venerable.

“Hehe.

Today, I’m going to kill the snake and take its gall.” No matter how much you cover the sky and the sun, I have divine weapons in hand, and I will easily slay you.

A surge of heroism welled up in Mu Can.

Today, I will slay this little snake.

At this thought, Mu Can holding the Soul-Slaying Dagger bravely charged at the Snake Venerable, and a scene that would be remembered by all onlookers for life emerged.

Mu Can actually intended to kill the Snake Venerable single-handedly with just that dagger in his hand.

You must know, Mu Can was even smaller than one of the Snake Venerable’s whiskers, and the Soul-Slaying Dagger could not even clean the gaps between the Snake Venerable’s teeth.

Because the disparity in strength appeared so vast, whoever witnessed this scene would forever etch it in their hearts.

“Ah, look, that’s Mu Can, he’s initiated an attack!” A Mu Family junior stumbled and fell during his escape down the mountain, sitting on the ground and shouting loudly as he watched Mu Can in the sky.

“Has he gone mad?

Facing such a huge snake, isn’t this just seeking death?

Isn’t this overestimating his own abilities?” Another servant of the Mu Family spoke loudly, sincerely not wishing for Mu Can to die at the hands of the Snake Venerable.

After all, a powerful Mu Can could take the entire Mu Family to a higher level, with more prestige, their days would be better.

“Look quickly, it looks like someone is charging at that giant snake.” Residents of Pingyun City in the distance, unlike the Mu Family juniors on Pingyun Mountain, could only see a small figure fearlessly charging at the huge Snake Venerable.

“Elder brother.” Bing’er, after taking Qingyi to her room, came to help the Mu Family clean up the aftermath, and just happened to witness this scene.

At the foot of Pingyun Mountain, a chubby little boy was running up the mountain with all his might, his body fat jiggling as he moved; he was Mu Can’s junior brother, Hu Dingyi.

“Elder brother, be careful.” He had wanted to stand by Mu Can’s side and fight together, but it seemed like it was too late now.

Though the spectators around were panicking, Mu Can’s mind was devoid of such thoughts.

His mind was clear and simple, and the only thought in Mu Can’s mind was to slay the Snake Venerable in front of him.

The fewer thoughts a person has, the simpler they are, and the simpler they are, the stronger they become.

Mu Can’s aura grew stronger, and at this moment, the Snake Venerable truly acknowledged his opponent for the first time.

“I admit, you have earned my respect.

But that’s all,” the Snake Venerable spoke arrogantly, unaware of the outcome that awaited him.

“Cut through the flesh, sever the spirit.

Soul Blade Slash!” Mu Can roared, slashing his blade from afar.

A massive blade light appeared before everyone’s eyes, a pale blue Soul-Slaying blast emitted a hundred-meter-long blade Qi, towering like a giant snake.

“Ah.” The Snake Venerable, seeing the blade Qi barreling towards him, felt the touch of death for the first time.

Without any hesitation, the Snake Venerable coiled up, burying its head deep within its body,

Faced with the Sky Opening-like massive blade Qi, the Snake Venerable receded, not daring to directly withstand Mu Can’s slash.

The massive blade Qi fiercely slashed towards the Snake Venerable, yet it was as if it hadn’t hit anything at all.

It passed through the body of the Snake Venerable, looking as if it had fallen into thin air.

“Hahaha, I knew it, you must be bluffing, how could someone as small as you have such strength,” seeing that it was unharmed, the Snake Venerable stuck out its head and burst into a deafening laugh, its snake eyes full of mockery as it looked at Mu Can standing in the air.

“Holy shit, that scared me.” The short man had already stood together with the Giant, ready to flee at once if things went south.

Seeing Mu Can’s seemingly powerful slash have no effect, the two laughed cheerfully.

This slash also terrified the spectating crowd.

“Damn, what’s going on, that slash that looked like it could split the sky had no effect at all, what a joke.” The Mu Family crowd that had stopped fleeing, upon seeing this scene, cursed and immediately resumed running towards Pingyun City.

“Elder brother.” Hu Dingyi, seeing Mu Can’s slash having no effect, quickened his pace to Mu Can’s side.

Seeing the reactions of these people, a cold smile appeared on Mu Can’s lips.
