“You…” Qing Zhui was surprised. “You have discussed this before?”

“No, ” said Bai Jing, “I said I'd think about it. I've been hesitating. But when Bai Sheng asked me to take care of the rest, I've made up my mind. He never thought of me as his daughter. I was just his tool. I don't want to live like this anymore. I want to be free.”

Yin Molan took back his Brotherhood of Blade and asked, “But what about the Ancestor-seeking Elixir? Bai Sheng has taken away Zhu Hongqin. He would do whatever he could to get the real skull fragment from her.”

“Zhu Hongqin didn't have it. If it was hidden in the Prosperous House, we still have a chance to get it because the Special Forces had sealed off the House. Although the skull fragment is important, we can't afford to lose anyone of us.” said Ning Tao.

Obviously, he was talking about Bai Jing.

Bai Jing's eyes changed slightly. She noticed something but remained silent.

Qing Zhui came up to Bai Jing and held her arm. “Bai Jing, you made the right decision. I'll stand by you forever.”

Bai Jing nodded and simply spread her arms to embrace her.

Bai Jing and Qing Zhui, two snake demons, looked as beautiful as fairies.

After a short hug, Bai Jing let go of Qing Zhui. She looked at Ning Tao with eager eyes. “Ning Tao, I don't have any other options. Could you please help me eliminate the golden snake venom that Bai Sheng attached to me?”

Ning Tao nodded. “I will do my best. Don't worry. I have already prepared two options for you.”

“Two?” Bai Jing asked.

“This is not the right place to talk about this. We have to leave here as soon as possible. Let's take the convenient door of the clinic to The Sword Pavilion Cave,” said Ning Tao.

Qing Zhui suddenly got nervous, “I… I don't want to go to the clinic.”

“I know it's painful, but it will only take a few seconds. We can't split up now. If we are tracked by Bai Sheng, we will be doomed,” said Ning Tao. Then he used the blood he spat before to painted the blood lock.

“My motorcycle is still parked next to the Prosperous House,” Yin Molan suddenly thought of his car.

“Don't worry, Yin. My electric vehicle is there too. If it disappears, I'll buy you a new one,” replied Ning Tao.

Yin Molan smiled. “If I lose it, I'll take your electric vehicle.”

Ning Tao smiled back and opened the blood lock painted on the trunk of a tree, and then walked into the convenient door, holding Qing Zhui's hand.

Yin Molan and Bai Jing didn't hesitate, following them and getting into the door.

With three demons getting into the Sky Clinic, the face on the good-evil tripod showed its angry face. All they could hear was the huge noise of the tripod, just like the rumble of thunder.

Qing Zhui couldn't bear the pressure. Her knees buckling, she was going to fall to the ground. Ning Tao immediately grabbed her waist and rushed to the stone wall with a related blood lock.

Yin Molan and Bai Jing both had uncomfortable reactions, but their reactions were not as fierce as Qing Zhui. Therefore, it also showed that what sacrifice Qing Zhui had made to help Ning Tao. If she hadn't committed the crime and hurt those patients owning merits or sins, Ning Tao would never have had the chance to cure them and earn those good-evil points. To some extent, those points could even affect his life.

“Bai Jing, could you help me take medicine chest?” Ning Tao said, then used the key to open the convenient door to the Sword Pavilion Cave. He didn't hesitate and rushed inside.

Yin Molan also followed him. Bai Jing rushed into the door with Ning Hao's medicine chest.

The dim light from the ceiling of the cave gave them a view of the cave.

After leaving the Sky Clinic, Qing Zhui felt much better. But she couldn't help s.h.i.+vering, her eyes glazing.

Ning Tao held her tightly in his arms, comforting her while injecting his special spiritual power to her, “Don't be afraid, it's okay. We're safe now.”

Qing Zhui finally came to her senses, she trembled. “Ning Hao, I will do good deeds, a lot of good deeds…”

Ning Tao nodded. “Yeah, I will help you. I will do good deeds with you.”

Yin Molan raised his hand to pat his forehead, saying to himself, “What are they saying? Snake demon does something good?”

The other three just ignored him, but he didn't need them to reply either. After taking a while to adapt to the environment around him, Yin Molan suddenly found Ning Tao's spiritual field in the Sword Pavilion Cave and the spiritual materials planted in the field. He shouted out and ran over as fast as he could.

Ning Tao didn't even care what Yin Molan was going to do. He had already decided to share his secret with Yin before he brought him here. Yin Molan had fought with him twice. The first time was to kill Tang Tianren. And the last time was to fight against Bai Sheng. Yin didn't leave him even when they encountered a strong enemy like Bai Sheng, which meant that he could trust Yin Molan. With a friend of life and death, he could share anything with him.

Qing Zhui had recovered a lot, but she didn't want to leave Ning Tao's arms. What she needed most right now was a sense of security, and Ning Tao's embrace was the safest place in the world for her. She pressed her cheek against Ning Tao's chest, and it felt like a warm water bag in the cold winter.

Ning Tao didn't let go of her either. When he saw her suffering, he felt that he owed her because she had done so many things for him. If Qing Zhui wanted to, he was willing to hold her like this.

“Ahem.” Bai Jing coughed. “Ning Tao, don't you say that we don't have much time? How long you're going to hold my sister like this? Can't you do it at night?”

Ning Tao was embarra.s.sed, but he still asked, “Qing Zhui, how do you feel now? We can get up if you're all right.”

Qing Zhui let go of Ning Tao. “Ning Tao, you should help my sister remove her golden snake venom first.”

Bai Jing teased her, “Now you remember you have a sister?”

Qing Zhui giggled with embarra.s.sment.

Ning Tao said, “All right, Qing Zhui, you know what to do.”

“Yeah, I know. I'll guard the door.” Qing Zhui smiled, then stood in the doorway.

“There are only four of us here. You don't have to guard the door, and I won't get in.” Yin Molan said.

Qing Zhui was still standing at the door, “I have my rules. I know what I'm doing.”

“What's wrong with you?” Yin Molan grumbled and looked down at the bud of corpse onion. He suddenly screamed, “Oh my G.o.d! There is a corpse onion! And white-jade holy lotus! What a rich man!”

Qing Zhui looked at Yin Molan with her contemptuous eyes, muttering, “What a b.u.mpkin!”

In the stone house, Ning Tao took the ledger from Bai Jing and opened it.

The ledger of bamboo slips came a diagnosis. “Bai Jing, a snake demon born from ginkgo tree in the year 57 of the reign of Emperor Kangxi, killed 78 wicked men. She had acc.u.mulated 440 merits. The first sin was to murder 38 people for money, counting 266 points of sins of evil intention. The second sin was to steal and rob, counting 120 times. Merits leveled sins. She bore 78 points of the sin of evil intention, stuck by the demon curse. She could get a prescription pact for sins of evil intention, and taking her eyes for her sins with life.”

The year 57 of the Kangxi Reign, which was known as 1718. This year was 2018, which meant that Bai Jing had been alive for 300 years. Ning Tao felt weird because no matter how he looked at Bai Jing, she looked like a beautiful and attractive woman in her twenties.

Moreover, it was also the first time that he diagnosed a demon. He found that she could even increase her merits by killing evil people, so the demon was born to maintain the ecological balance. The natural demon was like a lion or tiger in the jungle. They were cruel and ferocious, killing other animals for life. It might seem evil, but without lions and tigers, nature couldn't maintain balance.

G.o.d created the world. Everything had a role and function.

Bai Jing came over; she also saw the content of the ledger. She immediately went backward. “If I have to take my eyes in exchange for removing the golden snake venom, I would rather not do it.”

Ning Tao put away his ledger to the medicine chest. “This is one of the options. I'm not saying that you have to do it.”

“What's the other option?” Bai Jing asked.

“Well, you have to tell me what the golden snake venom is and where it is. And how Bai Sheng planted it on you. In short, tell me everything you know. The more I know, the more confident I will be when I operate on you.” said Ning Tao.

Bai Jing looked at Ning Tao with strange eyes.

Ning Tao shrugged. “Why that look? You don't believe me? I could even cure Qing Zhui's demon bone. And you just had the venom.”

Bai Jing sighed, “Never mind, I said I'd give myself to you. You can do whatever you want.”

Ning Tao felt weird while hearing that, but he couldn't figure out why.

Bai Jing went on, “The golden snake venom is a snake-shaped needle made by Bai Sheng. Each requires the flesh and venom of a thousand poisonous snakes to refine for 715 days, including a golden snake, which is really rare and precious. After refining, he would make it with a secret method. The snake-shaped needle is as soft as water with the soul and venom of a snake. Once swallowed, it will enter the blood. It doesn't normally attack me, but when it hears Bai Sheng curse, it would get furious. And it hurts like h.e.l.l.”

Ning Tao froze when he heard that. “How did Bai Sheng take it out?”

Bai Jing laughed wryly, “Once the golden snake venom enters the human body, it will not come out again and only listened to the order which refined it. But I don't know the order that Bai Sheng manipulates. Otherwise, I wouldn't be controlled by him.”

Ning Tao thought for a moment. “Then where is it now?”

Bai Jing hesitated for two seconds. Suddenly she grabbed the hem of the wedding dress and lifted it…
