Chapter 541: Chapter 541: Digging One’s Own Grave (Part 4)
Master Qingteng’s face changed drastically because he couldn’t feel the power and aura of the Witchcraft Artifact on the giant python.
Thinking back to Lin Fei’s strike earlier, the spot where it landed on the giant python was exactly where the Witchcraft Artifact was.
Master Qingteng suddenly thought: Could it be that Lin Fei’s strike earlier destroyed the Witchcraft Artifact inside the giant python and broke his witchcraft?
If Lin Fei destroyed the Witchcraft Artifact within the giant python, then not only would the python not be under his control, but it might even turn around and attack him.
The giant python had always been under his witchcraft control, allowing it to follow his commands. Once it was no longer under his witchcraft, the giant python would return to its original beastly nature.
Master Qingteng had subjected the giant python to numerous punishments over the years to tame it. Once freed, the python would surely seek revenge on him.
Master Qingteng was aware of the giant python’s power, strengthened to nearly his original Grandmaster sixth level through years of evil training.
Once it goes on a rampage, it’s utterly terrifying.
“Python, I am your master, attack Lin Fei immediately!” Master Qingteng gathered his courage, pointing at Lin Fei, angrily commanding the python.
He still harbored a trace of luck.
Hoping his years of intimidation over the python would instill fear.
However, in response to Master Qingteng’s orders, the python roared at him: “Roar!~~~”
As soon as the roar ceased, the python’s blood-filled mouth lunged toward Master Qingteng.
Master Qingteng’s heart sank, realizing the worst case scenario he feared had become reality.
Facing the python’s massive jaws, Master Qingteng’s eyes flashed with ruthlessness.
Then he pushed Yang Jiahao, whom he held captive, forcefully towards the python.
Yang Jiahao, suddenly pushed by Master Qingteng, saw the python’s jaws snapping down, terrified to the point of losing her soul, yet unable to scream.
In that moment, fear engulfed her entire being, and she shut her eyes tight, knowing she was about to be devoured by the python.
Just at this critical life-and-death juncture, a fleeting silhouette swooped past, rescuing Yang Jiahao from beneath the python’s jaws just in time.
Yang Jiahao opened her eyes again, hardly believing she found herself cradled by Lin Fei, soaring mid-air like an immortal.
She felt like she was dreaming!
She hadn’t expected Lin Fei to save her.
She stared in a daze at Lin Fei, who was so close.
He was so handsome, filled with heroic manly charm.
Her heart was completely captivated by him.
She even wished Lin Fei would hold her like this forever, never ceasing flight…
Swoosh.
Lin Fei landed at the cave entrance, concern in his voice as he asked Yang Jiahao, “Are you okay?”
Yang Jiahao snapped back to reality, her face blushing slightly, hurriedly shaking her head and saying, “I’m fine. Lin Fei, thank you for saving me.”
Lin Fei replied, “You’re welcome.”
Just then, a scream echoed from inside the cave: “Ah!~~~”
Lin Fei and Yang Jiahao looked towards the sound, and instantly saw a gruesome sight: after Lin Fei rescued Yang Jiahao, the python’s jaws, fast as lightning, had severed Master Qingteng’s right arm.
Blood gushed from Master Qingteng’s severed arm, quickly staining his robe red.
Master Qingteng, face full of panic, started to flee.
But after seeing blood, the python grew even more ferocious and ruthless.
With a crunch.
The python’s jaws severed Master Qingteng’s left arm, making him scream again.
Blood poured out like a fountain.
Yang Jiahao, terrified and pale, quickly covered her eyes with her hands, not daring to look further.
Lin Fei was also shocked by the bloody brutality.
Yet he had no intention to save Master Qingteng.
This Master Qingteng had previously used witchcraft to control the python to attack him, intending to kill him.
Lin Fei certainly wouldn’t foolishly save someone who wants to kill him.
Bam!
At that moment, the python’s jaws attacked again, biting off Master Qingteng’s entire head.
The headless corpse sprayed blood wildly, collapsing on the ground, Master Qingteng thus devoured by the python he raised himself.
Seeing Master Qingteng killed by the python, Lin Fei mused: Using evil arts to tame the python, only to get bitten off arms and head by the python at the end, truly getting what he deserved, digging his own grave.
“Lin Fei!” A voice called from outside the cave.
Then a figure quickly appeared before Lin Fei.
Lin Fei looked and saw it was Leng Ying.
“Leng Ying, why did you come down?” Lin Fei asked somewhat surprised.
Seeing Lin Fei and Yang Jiahao were unharmed, Leng Ying secretly let out a sigh of relief.
“I heard eerie cries from above, worried for you so I came down. Is there a fierce beast here?” Leng Ying looked at Lin Fei and asked.
Lin Fei pointed to the cave, speaking calmly, “Yes, there’s a python.”
Following Lin Fei’s finger, Leng Ying gazed into the cave, his eyes widening, a trace of shock revealed.
Having experienced life-and-death ordeals on the Middle East battlefield, Leng Ying was also startled by what he saw.
He saw within the cave, a giant python tens of meters long, tearing apart a body; the body was missing head, arms, and legs.
The terrifying python seemed to have deep grievances towards the corpse, gnawing it to pieces.
“Lin Fei, that body is…” Leng Ying guessed the identity of the corpse but still asked Lin Fei for confirmation.
Lin Fei replied, “That’s right, it’s Master Qingteng’s corpse.”
Hearing Lin Fei’s words, Leng Ying felt vindicated, “Serves him right, that’s poetic justice.”
Lin Fei nodded, saying, “Let’s go!”
The trio was about to leave the cave when suddenly the python that had killed Master Qingteng raised its python head, opening its jaws and roaring at Lin Fei and the others: “Roar!~~~”
A murderous beast aura instantly enveloped the trio.
Lin Fei furrowed his brow, speaking coldly, “A python is a python, even without Master Qingteng’s witchcraft control, don’t expect this beast to become tame.
It still can’t resist wanting to eat people; it seems after killing Master Qingteng, it also wants to make us its food.”
Lin Fei turned to Leng Ying, “You take Yang Jiahao and leave first, I’ll deal with this python.”
Leng Ying said, “Lin Fei, be careful.”
Then Leng Ying quickly left the cave with Yang Jiahao.
At this moment, the python attacked Lin Fei like a whirlwind.
Lin Fei’s eyes sharpened: If this python escapes outside, many people would surely die, better to eliminate it and remove future threats.
Seeing the python’s jaws closing in on him.
Just then, Lin Fei’s figure suddenly launched into the air, wielding a fist emitting a blazing white, intensely powerful energy.
He fiercely struck the python’s head.
With a loud bang, the python let out a scream.
With a puff, the python’s head exploded under Lin Fei’s blow, white brain matter splattered across the rock walls.
Then, the python’s head and body crashed onto the ground, the ground shook, and it lay motionless.
Lin Fei retracted the mysterious power from his fist, his figure coldly walking out of the cave.
