Chapter 1102 – Dealing with Snake Mal
Chapter 1102 – Handling Snake Mal
Walking Earth Devil paused and continued, “That Snake Mal is subordinate to me, you didn’t return my message before, so I’ll temporarily arrange for her to be in the Chamber of Commerce, dealing with miscellaneous matters.”
Hearing this, Xu Chuniang nodded in satisfaction, “Can you arrange an opportunity for her to leave Abyss City?”
She had originally planned to lure Snake Mal out of the city with heavy benefits, but as a result, although Snake Mal coveted the magic crystals she earned, she was never willing to venture out of the city, so she had no choice but to borrow the hand of the Earth Demon to do this.
“Naturally.”
Earth-walking Demon had already guessed Snake Mal’s end when he agreed to do this favor, and hearing Xu Chuniang’s request, he didn’t feel surprised at all.
“Three days later, there will be a batch of goods returning to the city, and this time, it’s just my turn to pick up the goods, so I’ll just bring her along when I leave the city.”
“Alright, then I’ll wait for your news.”
After seeing Xu Chuniang off, the Earth Walking Demon looked in the direction she left, gently rubbing the trigger finger on his thumb, a few more points of inquiry in his eyes.
An Earth Demon Situation cultivator who had never left the city in nearly twenty years, yet had an almost inexhaustible supply of demonic materials on her body, really made people think more.
Behind her, there must be a Heavenly Demon Realm powerhouse who was unwilling to show his face.
But in Yuan City, there were only a few powerful people who ranked high, and under their names, there had never been such a person as Xu Chuniang.
Who exactly was she working for?
The Earth-walking Demon pondered for a long time, and several faces surfaced in his mind, which he denied one by one.
It was just a matter of whoever it was, it didn’t have much to do with him, at least so far, the cooperation between him and Xu Chuniang was pleasant.
As for Snake Mal, if it was before Long Yu disappeared, he might not have dared to touch her, but Long Yu had already disappeared for almost twenty years, and a small Human Demon Realm cultivator, dead is dead.
The Earth Walking Demon got up and left the merchant bank, heading towards the direction of the storehouse.
In the storehouse, Snake Mal was cleaning up the inventory on the shelves, and when she saw Earth Walking Demon’s figure from afar, she immediately put down the chores in her hands and respectfully bowed towards Earth Walking Demon.
“Why is my lord free to come over today?”
“I have nothing to do, just wandering around.”
The Earth Walking Demon carried his hand behind his back, his eyes slid over the shelves and landed on Snake Mal’s body, “Are you still doing a good job in this treasury?”
“Smooth, smooth.”
At first being concerned, Snake Mal was quite a bit flattered, after all, this is the first time in these half a year that Earth Walking Demon asked her about this.
“Your Excellency is willing to take me in and give me a place to stay, so that I can settle down in Abyss City, I am already very content.”
Walking Earth Demon nodded slightly and said offhandedly, “Right, three days later there will be a new batch of goods, you have followed me for a period of time, since you are a person who understands the rules, at that time, you will come with me out of the city and go to receive this batch of goods.”
Snake Mal was first stunned, then ecstatic, towards the ground walking demon deeply bowed, “Many thanks for the Lord’s mention, I will definitely live up to the Lord’s high expectations!”
After Earth Walking Demon left, Snake Mal took a deep breath and suppressed the excitement in his heart.
In the first few years of Lord Long Yu’s disappearance, she could barely get by, but as the time of his disappearance grew longer and longer, her days gradually became less and less favorable.
By a few years ago, all of the properties that Lord Long Yu had left in the city had been taken over, and even she had been driven out of the southern city and lost her errand.
She relied on her savings for a few more years, and saw that she would not be able to hold on until she met a devil who was willing to take her in, so she was able to continue to stay in the city.
However, even though the Earth-walking Devil took her in, in the past half a year, he has been indifferent to her, which makes Snake Mal’s heart always feel a little uneasy.
Until today, was walking the devil entrusted with important tasks, her heart’s uneasiness is finally dissolved a lot.
Snake Mal secretly made up her mind, three days later with the walking demon out of the city, she must show a little brighter, and strive to stay in the side of the adults for a long time. However, what Snake Mal didn’t know was that the day she left the city would be the day of her death.
Three days later.
The Earth Walking Demon took Snake Mal out of Abyss City and traveled all the way west.
Snake Mal was both excited and a little nervous, unable to stop looking around the surrounding void.
This time, when he left the city to receive goods, the lord only brought her with him, it was enough to see how much he valued himself.
She had thought at first that the Earth-walking Demon didn’t care about her at all, but now she realized that the previous half year of inattention was His Lordship testing her.
The Earth-walking Demon in front of her suddenly stopped, “It’s right here.”
“Oh, okay.”
Snake Mal immediately controlled his sight, stopped looking around, and stood behind the ground-walking demon in a disciplined manner.
The two of them stood for a while, perhaps it was because the surrounding was too quiet, and a wave of uneasiness suddenly welled up in the bottom of Snake Mal’s heart.
“My lord, did the higher-ups say when the shipment we are receiving will arrive approximately? There are only two of us here, I am a little unsure in my heart, after all, this domain is always not as reassuring as the Abyssal City ……”
“What are you in a hurry for? It’s almost here.”
Walking Earth Demon’s tone was indifferent, a person who was about to die, he was too lazy to talk nonsense with her.
Noticing all the impatience in the other party’s words, Snake Mal immediately closed his mouth tightly, not daring to say anything more, but the uneasiness in the bottom of her heart grew stronger, always feeling that something was about to happen.
Right at this moment, Snake Mal’s ears suddenly moved, looking over in a certain direction.
Seeing the person coming, her pupils slightly shrunk, and she even subconsciously retreated a step back.
Although from start to finish, Xu Chuniang had not discovered the tampering she had done in the cave, for some reason, she always felt a bit weak when facing this woman.
But very quickly, Snake Mal calmed down, she was from the Chamber of Commerce, she had a background, and with the Earth-walking Demon, the other party would not dare to make a move at all.
However, the next moment, the words that Walking Earth Demon said made her face turn pale.
Earth-walking Demon revealed an eager smile towards Xu Chuniang, “I’ve already brought you the person.”
Snake Mal’s heart felt like it was being clutched tightly by something, a strong sense of oppression that left her breathless.
Her voice was shaking, “My lord, what do you mean by that? Didn’t you say that I’m a person who knows the rules and purposely bring me out of the city to receive the goods?”
The Earth-walking Demon looked as if he hadn’t heard Snake Mal’s words and didn’t even look at her, but it was Xu Chuniang who heard these words and glanced at her with a smile, “The formation was used well, it’s just the details that are lacking.”
Just this one sentence made Snake Mal tremble like chaff, a wave of despair welling up in the bottom of her heart.
She had discovered her own tampering with the formation? She had indeed discovered it, when exactly did she discover it?
Snake Mal did not dare to think deeply, turned around and disappeared towards the back, she had just run a few steps, a figure appeared in front of her out of thin air.
Snake Mal gritted her teeth, changed the direction to continue to escape, however, no matter how she escaped, the figure always accurately blocked her way.
“You can’t escape.”
