Chapter 207: The Snake Woman's Sudden Attack
After placing the Soul Returning Pill into the snake woman's mouth, Jiang Xun took out the Demon Core.
The Demon Core contained all of the snake woman's Spirit Power; in other words, as long as the Demon Core was not returned to its place, the snake woman would have no Spirit Power, but her life would also fade away extremely rapidly, and she would not live for long.
However, after the snake woman was resurrected, she would think she had left that sealed space and would certainly demand the snake egg from Jiang Xun to leave.
Judging by her taciturn personality, there was a high probability she would not ask for it, but would instead kill Jiang Xun directly to take the Storage Ring.
After all, in her view, Jiang Xun had put the snake gallbladder into the Storage Ring, not the System Space.
Jiang Xun removed the Ice Wall, then shouted, "Fairy Jiang, Sister Jiang!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan descended directly from high above, landing in front of Jiang Xun, and looked at the snake woman's corpse on the ground: "Demon Race? Who is this?"
"How did you know she was Demon Race?"
Jiang Xun was taken aback upon hearing this.
"The Demon Core in your hand... she has a human form, a snake body, and her lower abdomen was dug out for the Demon Core; if this isn't the Demon Race, is this a person?" Jiang Yan looked at Jiang Xun as if he were an idiot.
"Uh..." Jiang Xun was speechless, then gave Jiang Yan a rough explanation of the situation, intending to resurrect the snake woman.
"You want to keep her by your side?" Jiang Yan said after listening.
"Yes." Jiang Xun nodded.
"I think you should just let her be an Artifact Spirit; having a member of the Demon Race following you will bring you quite a bit of trouble," Jiang Yan said, looking at Jiang Xun.
"It's like this: in my consciousness, there are two Artifact Spirits, and these two Artifact Spirits don't get along very well, so I need to release one of them," Jiang Xun explained.
"Artifact Spirits? Not getting along?... That is truly unheard of," Jiang Yan said with a smile upon hearing this: "Since that's the case, you can use Heavenly Light Freedom to split your consciousness into two."
"It can do that?" Jiang Xun was stunned upon hearing this.
"The third level of Heavenly Light Freedom focuses on multitasking; after learning it, one can perfectly use dual swords or two different weapons, but many people cannot focus on practicing two weapons, so Heavenly Light Freedom developed a method to split the consciousness into two."
"After learning it, one 'you' becomes two 'yous'; your consciousness can think and act with completely different thoughts at the same time."
"... That sounds like split personality disorder; my other consciousness wouldn't want to replace me, would it?" Jiang Xun said after hearing this.
"... How could that be? Even if you had hundreds or thousands of consciousnesses, you would still be you; you couldn't possibly want to replace yourself, and you wouldn't have another personality. Heavenly Light Freedom is not a Demon Art."
Jiang Yan looked at Jiang Xun and said helplessly.
"That's good, that's good." Jiang Xun nodded, feeling this was also a good method: "Teach me."
As he spoke, Jiang Xun put away the snake woman's corpse and the Demon Core.
Jiang Yan, however, fell silent, looking Jiang Xun up and down.
"Hey, what's with that look of looking down on people!" Jiang Xun felt a bit bristled when he saw Jiang Yan's look; she really took him for a fool...
"With your comprehension ability... it takes almost half a day to teach you even hand-to-hand techniques; wouldn't it take a year to teach you something regarding consciousness?" Jiang Yan pouted and said.
"Don't look down on people; I will definitely learn it within one... two hours!" Jiang Xun stopped halfway, still leaving himself some room.
"Then I'll teach you for two hours; don't blame me if you can't learn it."
Jiang Yan chuckled, completely not believing that Jiang Xun could learn it in two hours.
————
Two hours later.
"Sister, Sister, teach me a little more, just a little more, I'm almost there," Jiang Xun howled, hugging the leg of Jiang Yan, who was preparing to leave.
"Didn't I say I'd only teach for two hours? Hey, get away, don't take advantage of me," Jiang Yan said, pulling Jiang Xun's hand away.
"I'm really just a little bit away, please, please."
Jiang Xun mimicked Si Yuyan's manner and pressed his palms together.
"Stop mimicking me!" Si Yuyan shouted when she saw this: "I've already learned it; you really are stupid!"
"Huh?" Jiang Xun gained confidence upon hearing this and stood up: "Who said I couldn't learn it in two hours? I've learned it; I was just giving you some face. Since you don't want it, then forget it, you can go."
"Oh?" Jiang Yan was also stunned to see Jiang Xun suddenly perk up: "You really learned it? Come, let me see."
"I'm tired today; I have no Spirit Power left after participating in the Top Ranking Challenge. Wait until tomorrow," Jiang Xun waved his hand with a profound air.
"Don't try to act tough; if you say a few more nice words, maybe I'll continue teaching you," Jiang Yan said, looking at Jiang Xun.
"I really learned it; I'll demonstrate it for you tomorrow. If you don't believe me, do you dare to bet with me?"
Jiang Xun said, looking at Jiang Yan.
"Disciples of the Baiyun Sect never gamble. Since you've learned it, then I'm going back," Jiang Yan refused decisively; after all...
Two hours ago.
Jiang Yan saw Jiang Xun holding Gufang Ninglin's bodice and taking a deep breath, which gave her goosebumps and made her head buzz.
How could a woman give such things to a man so casually! And it was intimate clothing!
... He won't try to bet with me in the future, will he? No, no, I must be on guard...
————
"Quick, quick, quick, teach me."
Jiang Xun entered the Consciousness Space once again and came before Si Yuyan.
"Oh, weren't you quite spirited just now? Want to learn? Beg me."
Si Yuyan said with her hands on her hips and her head held high.
"Isn't this to let you two separate? If you don't teach me, I'm leaving."
Jiang Xun said.
"Teach, I'll teach you."
Si Yuyan realized and said hurriedly.
"Want to teach? Beg me."
Jiang Xun said, mimicking Si Yuyan's manner from just a moment ago.
"... I beg you! You're the best!"
Si Yuyan curled her lip and grabbed Jiang Xun's arm, shaking it; anyway, they had already kissed and seen everything, so what was wrong with acting spoiled?
"Ahem, teach it then."
Jiang Xun coughed twice, straightened his back, and said.
The snake woman not far away looked at Jiang Xun and Si Yuyan, feeling a bit speechless; she didn't know how to deal with her, nor did she care to, so what were these people struggling so hard to stir up trouble for...
Come to think of it, that kid actually had a Soul Returning Pill.
In that case, she could completely resurrect.
However, what would be the point of resurrecting? She would still be hunted by Demonic Beasts, hunted by humans, and fleeing everywhere; rather than that, it was better to be as she was now.
Of course, Jiang Xun and Si Yuyan were unaware of these thoughts.
"Listen well, first take your Spirit Power... what are you doing!"
Si Yuyan and Jiang Xun sat down together, and just as Si Yuyan was about to explain the third level of Heavenly Light Freedom to Jiang Xun, she was suddenly startled, grabbed Jiang Xun by the neck, and pressed him down.
She herself was bitten on the neck by the snake woman, who had transformed into a snake.
"Ugh..."
After the snake woman opened her mouth and pulled away, Si Yuyan clutched her neck in pain, her whole body convulsing on top of Jiang Xun.
"Are, are you alright?!" Jiang Xun was also startled; he hurriedly stood up and grabbed Si Yuyan's body tightly, trying to make her stop convulsing.
