Chapter 241: Rockery

After coaxing Yu Yan to sleep, Cheng Feng went to the remaining two beauties. After displaying his powerful physique and strength, the two women naturally yielded to reality and knelt beneath Cheng Feng's robes.

After confirming the clues regarding Snake Controlling with the two women again, which were no different from Yu Yan's, Cheng Feng felt relieved.

He carried the two beauties directly into Yu Yan's room and slept with them all under one large quilt.

For prisoners, Cheng Feng had already provided them with good treatment.

As for any potential arguments later, they all knew each other now, so what was there to argue about?

The morning sunlight poured down. Yu Yan, who had been exhausted and tired last night, slowly opened her eyes. Cheng Feng's handsome profile appeared before her.

"Hmm? Who is this man??"

"Oh, right, we already did it last night; now I am beneath someone else."

Recalling the madness of last night, her mouth still ached faintly, and her waist felt sore.

Just as she prepared to lift her leg, she discovered a heavy weight pressing on her. She sat up to look—there were people?

Looking again, her two sisters were also by her side.

What was going on? Looking at the three sleeping women, Yu Yan was a bit dazed, but she finally realized that she was still a prisoner.

The three sisters had all been...

Having figured out the cause and effect, Yu Yan dared not say much. Recalling Cheng Feng's terrifying firepower from last night, she thought it was fine; one more sister meant one more person to share the pressure.

She turned over and went back to sleep.

Cheng Feng's eyes flickered. Seeing that Yu Yan did not seem to care much, he was even more satisfied. In his current situation, one woman could not stir up any trouble.

After sleeping for a good while, he slowly opened his eyes and sat up from the bed. He put on his coat, then gently opened the door and whispered a few words to the attendant guarding outside. Afterward, he selected a few trusted subordinates and had them quickly head to Gao Jin's residence to check if that rockery, which was forbidden to approach, really hid any secrets.

Cheng Feng sat in the study, anxiously waiting for news from his subordinates. After a while, someone finally came to report that they had found a clue. It turned out that there was a hidden tunnel beneath the rockery, and this tunnel led directly to a basement.

Upon receiving this news, Cheng Feng immediately took a group of people and rushed to the Gao residence.

When they pushed open the thick stone wall of the basement, a stale scent rushed toward them. Suddenly, a sound of breaking air came; Cheng Feng swung his blade to slash—it was an arm-long venomous snake. Cheng Feng smiled faintly: "It seems we found the right place."

Further in, snake dens of various sizes covered the ground, making one's hair stand on end.

Cheng Feng was also a bit unaccustomed to it; so many slimy, intertwined snakes truly made one's scalp tingle. This was not to say that Cheng Feng could not bring himself to act, but rather a psychological aversion to density. Under the circulation of his Blood Qi, that discomfort gradually dissipated.

The group continued forward, taking every step with caution to avoid the coiled venomous snakes. These venomous snakes seemed to sense the intrusion of strangers and began to grow restless, constantly emitting hissing sounds.

Cheng Feng and his subordinates were not intimidated by these dangers; they gripped their weapons tightly and walked step by step into the depths.

As they went deeper, the snake swarm became denser, and in some places, they even formed walls of snakes. Cheng Feng had to unleash more powerful strength to deal with these threats. He brandished the Silver Feather Blade in his hand, slashing crisscross and killing one venomous snake after another. But more venomous snakes surged in from all directions, as if they were endless.

Facing such a difficult situation, Cheng Feng pondered to himself that if he just kept killing like this, it would be hard to find that hidden entrance. He had to find a way to break through this sea of snakes as quickly as possible.

Thus, he decided to change his strategy, using his Blood Qi to blast away the surrounding venomous snakes, and then quickly searched for a possible entrance.

After some effort, he finally discovered a hidden secret door in a corner. Cheng Feng was overjoyed and hurriedly led everyone to rush toward that secret door. Just then, several giant pythons suddenly lunged out, blocking their path. These pythons were massive and possessed astonishing strength, putting immense pressure on Cheng Feng and the others.

A flash of determination crossed Cheng Feng's eyes, and he charged toward the giant pythons without hesitation. In the narrow space, he gripped his long blade tightly, nimbly dodging the pythons' attacks while skillfully utilizing his Blade Technique to strike the pythons' vital points time and again. The giant pythons hissed in anger, attempting to suppress Cheng Feng with their massive bodies, but he always managed to find flaws and escape.

After a fierce battle, Cheng Feng finally found an opportunity and used his Sword to sever the head of one of the giant pythons. Seeing this, the other giant pythons lunged at him, but Cheng Feng had already adapted to the rhythm of their attacks, easily avoiding them and continuing his assault. As time passed, Cheng Feng gradually gained the upper hand and slaughtered all the remaining giant pythons.

Having overcome the final obstacle, Cheng Feng breathed a sigh of relief. He walked to the secret door and carefully observed the mechanism on it. After some study, he discovered a protruding dark stone and successfully opened the secret door.

The door slowly opened, revealing a dark passage. Cheng Feng took a deep breath and stepped into the passage.

The scene before them left them all stunned: this basement was piled with all kinds of ancient books and Secret Manuals, which were clearly precious materials regarding the art of Snake Controlling.

Even more surprising was that they also found detailed records of Gao Jin's research on snake toxins during his lifetime, as well as several medicine bottles with no indicated use. These discoveries made Cheng Feng extremely excited; he felt he was getting closer and closer to the Snake Controlling True Scripture.

A beam of light pierced through the thick dust, illuminating this long-sealed basement and the burning desire in Cheng Feng's eyes. He took a deep breath, trying to calm his excitement, and slowly stepped into this treasure trove of knowledge.

Cheng Feng led his trusted subordinates to continue searching for clues within the cave, carefully avoiding places that might hide dangers to avoid triggering unnecessary trouble again. In the process, they discovered some traces and clues related to Snake Controlling, which made them feel very excited.

"Pass the order down: everyone must act with caution and must not damage any items." Cheng Feng's voice was low and powerful; he knew well that the value of these ancient books and Secret Manuals was immeasurable, and each one could be the key to unlocking the mysteries of Snake Controlling.

The trusted subordinates quickly dispersed and began searching for possible clues among the mountains of ancient books. Cheng Feng looked around at the room full of books.

"It seems Gao Jin truly reached an unprecedented height in Snake Controlling." Cheng Feng muttered to himself, his heart filled with both admiration for Gao Jin's talent and anticipation for the power he was about to master.

Just then, a trusted subordinate ran over excitedly, holding an ancient-looking book. The cover was embroidered with the four characters "Snake Controlling True Scripture" in gold thread, shining brightly. "My Lord, look at this!" he said excitedly.

Cheng Feng took the ancient book, his fingertips gently stroking the ancient characters, as if he could feel a power flowing within them. Cheng Feng could not wait to open the Secret Manual and carefully studied its contents. He discovered that this Secret Manual detailed the cultivation methods and techniques of Snake Controlling, as well as how to control and drive various venomous snakes.

"This is what we have been looking for!" Cheng Feng's eyes flashed with light.
