824: Chapter 824: Broken Heart Red (6) 824: Chapter 824: Broken Heart Red (6) After Xiao Bai and the others had left and were out of sight, Yang Ruxin suddenly let out a sigh, feeling uncomfortable.
However, Xiaolun suddenly darted down, looking incredibly excited, as if it had finally gotten rid of the rival for affection.
From now on, it would be the only cherished pet in the house.
âHmph, do you think I need your instructions to protect Xinxin?
How annoying!â it seemed to say.
Yang Ruxin watched the creature bouncing around and found herself speechless.
This was truly a jealous snake.
Xiaolun didnât care how Yang Ruxin saw it.
After all, from now on, Xinxin would be its, no, its alone.
In order to please Xinxin, it decided to find her something nice and flicked its tongue before darting off to the side.
Yang Ruxin quickly followed.
They soon arrived at the edge of a cliff.
The snow had fallen everywhere, turning the landscape a pure white, which made the small red flower growing on the cliff wall stand out even more.
âBroken Heart Red?â Yang Ruxin stared at the flower for a while before her eyes suddenly widened.
Boss Dao Xuzi had named it Broken Heart Red because it wasnât recorded in medical texts.
Boss Daoâs master had once collected it and even made a poison named âKing of Hellâs Fragrance.â It was extremely toxic âa mere sniff could lead to poisoning, let alone touching or ingesting it.
The old man had devoted his whole life to concocting an antidote but failed.
Later, he wondered if the flower itself could be used to make one?
Regrettably, after traversing mountains and rivers, the old man never found Broken Heart Red again.
It became his dying wish.
Dao Xuzi wanted to fulfill his masterâs legacy but unfortunately, he never found the plant again.
He had tried using Xiaolunâs venom and discovered that one poison could counteract another.
However, Xiaolunâs venom proved to be more potentâ even one drop was enough to neutralize the King of Hellâs Fragrance, but some venom would still remain.
That meant whoever got poisoned by King of Hellâs Fragrance would be poisoned by Xiaolun next, so that was far from ideal.
But now, Xiaolun had actually found it.
If his master knew, he would probably be overjoyed to faint, wouldnât he?
Xiaolun shook its head proudly.
Without the annoying Xiao Bai around, it was the boss in this forest.
It always wondered why it was afraid of Xiao Bai.
With its poison and speed, Xiao Bai should pose no threat, but after trying, it found that Xiao Bai wasnât afraid of its poison and was almost as fast.
So, to avoid being smacked to death, Xiaolun had decided to keep its distance.
Yang Ruxin was about to roll up her sleeves to pick the flower, but Xiaolun quickly stopped her.
It darted over and disturbed a small red snake coiled at the base of the plant.
She secretly felt relieved she hadnât been reckless.
Seeing the small red snake, she knew it was a venomous snake; getting bitten wouldâŠ
But donât venomous snakes hibernate?
In fact, the little red snake had been hibernating, but Xiaolunâs threatening presence had forcibly awakened it.
The little red snake glanced at Xiaolun.
Without even flicking its tongue, it slipped away swiftly.
The poisonous flower was precious, but its own life was far more valuable.
Xiaolun shook its head haughtily, then opened its mouth and uprooted the flower, roots and all.
But before it could return, suddenly, a cry of an eagle came from the sky.
Then, a large black figure swooped down, its claws and beak aiming straight for XiaolunâŠ
