The King of Urban Mercenaries-Chapter 1412 - 1416: Curse Power

"Immortal Huangshan, what do you mean by that? Why do I feel so dangerous!? Don’t scare me." Lin Fei said, just about to remove the black blindfold in front of him, which felt slippery as if it were snake skin.

"Don’t move! That thing can’t be removed!" Immortal Huangshan immediately shouted.

Lin Fei stopped his hand, even more puzzled. He took out his phone, then turned on the camera, looked at the thing on his face, and exclaimed: "Damn, Immortal Huangshan, you’re using snake skin to make a blindfold for me? That’s too disgusting!"

Immortal Huangshan slapped Lin Fei on the head.

"You, a Guardian, dare to hit me, a Law Enforcer? Are you tired of living?" Lin Fei angrily said.

"Kid, no matter who you are, even the king of heaven, how old are you? I’m already hundreds of years old; is hitting you not okay? Besides, I’m saving you, and instead of thanking me, you accuse me. You deserve a beating; hitting you lightly is merciful!" After speaking, Immortal Huangshan hit Lin Fei again.

"Damn! Old man Huangshan, if you hit me again, I’ll fight you!" Lin Fei jumped up. Everyone understands the principle that a gentleman can be killed but not humiliated.

Old man Huangshan knew it was best not to push Lin Fei too hard, so he withdrew his hand, saying: "Kid, I’m actually saving you. You probably don’t know, but you’ve been cursed by the snake clan, and you might have bad luck in the future."

"What do you mean? Old man Huangshan, explain it clearly. What’s going on with the snake clan’s curse? Do those little black snakes actually have a curse? Aren’t they just becoming demon spirits?" Lin Fei was surprised; these things were beyond his imagination.

Immortal Huangshan cast a disdainful look at Lin Fei and said: "You really are an idiot. The Flood Dragon you killed, which was over five hundred years old, had already become a spirit. Do you know what that means?"

"Then what do you suggest, old man Huangshan? Am I going to face some disaster?" Lin Fei was genuinely scared at this point. As the saying goes, the unknown is the most frightening, so Lin Fei was scared now.

Immortal Huangshan sighed and said: "Originally, this snake clan curse shouldn’t exist in the Lower Realm. It is a specialty of the Upper Realm and unrelated to the Lower Realm. Unlucky for you to encounter this in the Lower Realm, who can you blame? Just your bad luck."

"Damn, old man Huangshan, this thing is a specialty of the Upper Realm? Many of them in the Upper Realm? Since there are so many in the Upper Realm, there should be a way to remove it, right? Otherwise, the more there are, the more people die. The people in the Upper Realm shouldn’t die that easily, right?" Lin Fei said.

"You’re right, there is indeed a way to remove it. I’ve already helped you deal with it, but whether it can be completely removed depends on your fate." Immortal Huangshan said.

"How did you deal with it? Did you make it up?"

"Lin Fei, don’t you trust me?" Immortal Huangshan said disdainfully.

Lin Fei glanced at Immortal Huangshan and said: "It’s not that I don’t trust you; I never trusted you from the start. You didn’t use some old remedy, trying to fool me, did you? Just so I wouldn’t hold a grudge since you ate its meat too."

With this said, Immortal Huangshan got anxious, stood up, and said: "You kid, I really misjudged you. I didn’t expect you not to trust me. I followed the ancient texts, using Flood Dragon horns ground into powder, sprinkled into your eyes, then covered your eyes directly with Flood Dragon skin. That’s how the ancient texts said to do it; I’m not lying. You truly are the saying goes about a dog biting Lv Dongbin, not appreciating kindness."

Lin Fei laughed and said: "The key is, what’s the use of doing that? Is there any use for Flood Dragon horns? Can the skin remove the curse? I don’t know."

"You brat, there are many things you don’t know. The powder made from the Flood Dragon’s horn has an excellent suppressive effect on snake clan curses. It can also be used as an antidote, while the snake skin ensures those auras don’t escape, allowing the medicine to fully unleash its effect. Do you understand?" Immortal Huangshan said.

"Me? Of course, I don’t understand. If I understood, how could I let you explain it to me? Thank you, Immortal Huangshan." Lin Fei suddenly became cheerful, looking obsequious as he leaned closer to Immortal Huangshan.

Immortal Huangshan was taken aback, and with a look of disdain, walked away saying: "Kid, don’t come near me; your changes are faster than flipping pages. Are you scheming something?"

"Immortal Huangshan, how could I be scheming? I’m just hoping you’ll handle applying the medicine in the future and hopefully remove the curse soon." Lin Fei said. Though the curse is invisible and intangible, Lin Fei felt it must be terrifying; otherwise, Immortal Huangshan wouldn’t have spoken that way.

"You better give up and stop sucking up to me. Your curse, well, there’s just this one chance with the medicine. If it’s effective, that’s good; if not, don’t blame me. Anyway, I’ve treated you according to the ancient texts." Immortal Huangshan said.

Lin Fei was speechless, instantly becoming dejected, and said: "Then tell me, if it fails, what are the side effects of this curse?"

"Actually, there are no real side effects, except you can’t stay in places with snakes anymore. You can’t now, either, or the curse’s power will intensify, making it even harder to treat. If the treatment fails, you might face the snake clan’s reprisal, like you just imagined, always worrying about getting bitten to death by snakes every day..." Immortal Huangshan said.

"Damn! No way, how is that possible! But if so, I can find a place with no snakes to live, huh? That can work, right?" After hearing Immortal Huangshan’s words, Lin Fei immediately thought of a countermeasure, like making a sealed room or a snake-killing device in the future. As a living human being, what is there to fear from snakes? It’s ridiculous.

However, Immortal Huangshan’s next words completely shattered Lin Fei’s idea. Immortal Huangshan said: "You idiot, if it were that simple, that’d be great. The snake clan’s vengeance is exceedingly strong; they might even come from the Upper Realm directly to the Lower Realm. Imagine, if the Upper Realm’s snake clan wants to kill you, could you still live safely?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Fei thought for a moment, realizing it’s true. He murmured: "Then I better directly call Master Brother for help; let him detoxify me first..." Saying that, Lin Fei took out the small stone he carried, ready to crush it.

"No, no, no!" Immortal Huangshan hastily stopped Lin Fei.
