I was learning hand seals from Dumpling, but my small gold medal used for exorcism was a bit off.

Dumpling, the little teacher with a serious face, adjusted my fingers with his tiny hands.

A layer of golden light gradually spread on my nails.

I have to admit, the little guy is exceptionally gifted in Mysterious Art, just like his father. I’ve been learning for so long but haven’t mastered it as well as Little Dumpling. It’s okay, there’s no shame in asking for guidance from younger people.

After all, he’s my biological son; his intelligence comes from the good genes of me and his father.

Hearing Chang Hao’s words, I had a thought and looked up, "A strange person? That person... are they male or female?"

Beichen is very introverted, and the only person from the Snake Sect who can be with him is Xiao Li.

Being described as a very strange person by Chang Hao, it obviously shouldn’t be Xiao Li.

"Neither male nor female!" Chang Hao said emphatically.

Upon hearing this, I immediately guessed the identity of the person next to Beichen, "A long-haired girl in a white dress?"

"That’s not it, it’s someone with a long white dress and hair, but they’re male." Chang Hao showed a goosebumps-inducing expression.

I suddenly realized and became alert, "Don’t bring them both into the sect. I’ll meet him outside. As for Dumpling..."

"Mama!" Dumpling, seeing that I planned to leave him behind, put on a tight little expression.

My heart instantly softened, unable to bear leaving him with Chang Hao.

Ruffling Dumpling’s furry little head, I softly comforted the little guy, "Alright, take you with me to see our Brother Chenn. You haven’t met him since you were born, right?"

Little Dumpling is extremely quiet, his small head nodded lightly against my shoulder, confirming my words.

Chang Hao followed me to the entrance of the sect, where Beichen stood under the lush pine, next to a beautiful woman in a white dress.

"Is this me and your daughter? She looks a lot like me." The beautiful woman, with a pure white snake tail, approached me, trying to flatter herself.

Seeing Dumpling’s frightened eyes, veins popped on my forehead, "In what way does she resemble you? Are you blind?? And he’s a boy, alright?"

"A boy this good-looking??" The beautiful woman didn’t realize this would insult him first, snorted, "Hmph, growing up he’ll surely be effeminate, boys should look a bit rugged."

I ignored this narcissistic man, holding Dumpling as I approached Beichen, "Why did you come looking for me with this guy? Did something happen at home?"

"I didn’t bring him; he insisted on following me." Beichen’s face was as stern as frost, "Something did happen at home."

After a brief thought, I had a rough idea, "Could it be something happened to Xiao Li?"

"Yes, Xiao Li was kidnapped." Beichen clenched his fists, his whole body exuding a chilling aura.

I was shocked, "She has you protecting her, and... and that guy Wuyue is around, how could this happen??"

"We went to Z City to propose and betroth, but Xiao Li was stuffed into a big red bridal sedan chair." Beichen’s cold eyes glanced ominously at Wuyue, "As for him, it’s great if he doesn’t add fuel to the fire."

"Living Dead, don’t falsely accuse me, that bastard spirit is imbued with Azarhan Sutra, Lotus Sutra, Shurangama Sutra, Diamond Sutra, and multiple scriptures, as soon as he gets close my power becomes ineffective." Wuyue sharply looked down at Beichen, covering his lips with a pale hand after listing those names.

This undoubtedly exposed his weakness, it turns out ancient Human Snakes’ nemesis is the sacred texts with mana.

From Wuyue’s words, I caught the key point, frowning tightly, "Bastard spirit? Is that person named Piao Changji, dressed in a red official gown, extremely sleazy in appearance??"
