My Demon Husband Is a Snake

I knew very well what Yu Longting meant in his words, but as long as there was a glimmer of hope for survival, I didn't want to give up easily, "It's not so absolute, there's still a chance. Zanhe, I'm going to remove the demon spirit that has deeply possessed you."

"Su Wan, go ahead, I can bear it." Bai Zanhe lowered her head, long hair cascading down, leaving only the back of her neck with the tumor exposed.

My heart surged with encouragement as I took a deep breath.

With a swift motion of the hand and fall of the knife, I quickly sliced off the tumor on the back of Bai Zanhe's neck.

The tumor fell to the ground, eyes bulging round in unwillingness, still screeching in protest.

With all the strength it could muster, it tried to move toward the crowd, struggling in its dying throes to find another host to possess and sustain its life.

The bystanders hastily retreated, none wanting to become the next Bai Zanhe.

Seconds passed, and the tumor shrank and withered in the rain water, eventually necrosing into a deep black color.

"Take the tumor and burn it, and make sure you don't touch it with your hands," I instructed the villagers around me.

At that moment, an immensely resentful demon Qi erupted from Bai Zanhe's body, "Do you think... you can get rid of me so easily? No, I will haunt you forever. Bai Zanhe, since you have been seeded with my being, you are nothing but my Cauldron Furnace forever!!"

Damn it... Ah!

Those two words 'Cauldron Furnace'!! That really infuriated me, fueling anger from the bottom of my heart.

Isn't the current Bai Zanhe just like the past me, who was used by my father as a Cauldron Furnace for the Ancestor of Foxes?

Just like the Four Great Immortal Clans, all selfish in their possession.

I felt a deep sympathy for Bai Zanhe, "I need some powder made from the grinding of five grains."

While speaking, I moved to face Bai Zanhe.

I also picked up both of her hands.

Where her hands had scratched at the tumor, now sprouted countless tiny new tumors, as if rooting and sprouting rapidly.

These new tumors naturally were not as large as the original one on her neck, and for the moment, they posed no imminent threat.

But they each began to grow facial features, appearing much more eerie than a single tumor.

Continuing to feed them with Bai Zanhe's essence blood, one could imagine how quickly they would grow.

"I will have someone grind it immediately," the elderly village chief, although harboring animosity toward Bai Zanhe, always looked to Yu Longting and me for guidance.

"Grains may ward off evil, but nothing is more effective than the Evil-Breaking substances produced by our sect."

Yu Longting waved his hand dismissively, halting the chief, and spoke into the phone, "You two, come here, half a minute, the location is by the river to the east."

Less than half a minute, probably just over twenty seconds.

The two from the Zhang Family's side branches, clad in disheveled Taoist robes, one of them still shoeless on one foot, hurried over.

"Snake... Lord Dragon God, do you have any orders?"

The two were panting heavily, their faces flushed red.

Feeling like their lungs were about to burst.

Who could blame them when Yu Longting had given them only half a minute to rush over?

Yu Longting: "Do you have any Evil-Breaking medicinal powder in your sect?"

"Yes, yes, yes." One of them frantically searched their person and produced a porcelain bottle, handing it to Yu Longting, "Is there anything else?"

"That's all, go back to whatever you were doing," said Yu Longting, dismissive after his request was fulfilled.

The two Taoists were left looking utterly disheveled.

But they soon composed themselves and looked down to see me making a cross with a knife on Bai Zanhe's tumors, then cutting them off and placing them in a bowl.

This was a lesson drawn from the tumor's earlier reluctance to give up after falling off.

Once I made a cross on the tumor, pus and blood flowed out, and then I cut it off.

What fell into the bowl was just ordinary bubbles of blood, onto which I sprinkled the medicinal powder given by Yu Longting, on the wounds on Bai Zanhe's neck and hands, "Does anyone have any bandages, or clean cloth of some sort? I need to dress these wounds."
