The Ancient Realm Goddess
Two-Headed Snake

Ming Yuxia retreated and walked over to Qing Yue'er. There were many pairs of eyes looking at him hatefully, but he paid no heed to it. Of course killing one of the Chao family members made them hostile towards him. However since Chao Long let the matter go, they could only harbor that hostility.

"If my father is guilty, I will return the treasure he stole." Ming Yuxia said firmly.

Chao Long said nothing. He would let the girl go to find her own truth. For now he was more concerned with the affairs of Chao Yan's corpse.

Qing Yue'er looked at the sky that was already starting to light up. The sunlight began to shine warmly. This is the perfect time to end the darkness. "Let's go now."

Finally the three of them left the Chao family residence. This time the goal was clear. They would soon return to Ming Yuxia's house and search for the truth about Ming An.

Without any hindrance they were almost there when it was noon. Ming Yuxia increased her speed, perhaps she wanted to arrive soon.

Qing Yue'er followed him. In just a few moments they had finally arrived in front of Ming Yuxia's house. The air still feels the same, quiet and cool. They went inside to meet Ming An immediately.

But the unexpected happened. They did not find Ming An's figure anywhere they searched. Even Ming Xuan wasn't home either. It was possible that the old man had already guessed this incident and he had finally escaped.

Qing Yue'er immediately went to the wooden hut that was previously pointed out by Ming An. He searched around the weapon and saw the excavation marks on the ground. When he tried to touch the ground he could feel a different aura. Unmistakably, it must be the heirloom trail that Chao Long was referring to.

"So it's true ...." Ming Yuxia who was behind Qing Yue'er muttered softly. His feelings became uncertain. The father he always believed in was doing such a thing. How should he accept this? His feelings were really disappointed.

"What are you going to do now?" qing Yue'er asked. He would only follow what would be Ming Yuxia's decision.

"Wait a minute! I think I know where they're going." Ming Yuxia said quickly. He invited Qing Yue'er and Jing Ling to follow him.

Qing Yue'er did not know where Ming Yuxia was taking her. He just followed the girl into the forest. The forest is still very natural, probably because it has never been or may be rarely touched by humans.

The journey took some time, before finally a dilapidated building was seen in plain sight. It was an old temple and probably never cared for. The roof is overgrown with moss and the yard is studded with dry foliage.

Brakk!

Without hesitation Ming Yuxia directly moved inside the temple. As he had expected, Ming An was indeed there along with Ming Xuan who was currently in a mess and unconscious state. The young man was tied by his own father to a pole at the center of the temple.

"Dad! What are you doing?!" Ming Yuxia shouted. He never expected that his father would actually do things excessively. How not to overdo it, now that Ming Xuan was being held up like that for what?

Ming An laughed out loud. "I knew you'd find me."

"So what they say is the truth?" Ming Yuxia asked. Although everything was clear but he still did not want to believe it. He didn't want to believe it before his father actually admitted it.

"Yes, that's true. I stole this heirloom. Ha ha ha, so what? Do you want to attack your own father?" Ming An asked while laughing out loud. His hand raised revealed a ring with a blue-colored jade ornament on it.

Ming Yuxia smiled wryly. Now everything is clear and detailed. There was no longer anything that made him refuse to believe this truth. Perhaps the Chao family had treated his mother unfairly, but his father was also wrong for having stolen the family heirloom.

Qing Yue'er also thought that way. After all the Chao family was already willing to replace Chao Xing's possessions, but Ming An was unwilling and insisted on maintaining these stolen treasures. Of course Ming An knew the item was something far more precious than ordinary treasures.

"Uncle, you must return the treasure to its owner. Being greedy was also not a good thing," Qing Yue'er said.

"What do you know? Don't advise anyone older than you!" Ming An exclaimed in a mocking tone. Although he knew that the three girls had higher cultivation than him, but now he was holding a ring that contained spirit beasts. What should he be afraid of?

Qing Yue'er did not feel angry. He could also understand what Ming An had in mind. With the spirit ring in his hand, the man could have attacked them with the spirit beast within the ring. However the one who possessed the spirit beast was not only Ming An alone, he himself also had Ying Jun.

A mocking smile appeared on Qing Yue'er's lips. "I'm giving you a choice."

"I don't need a choice. The one who is in control of the situation is me!" ming An said coldly. He looked at Qing Yue'er and Jing Ling with glaring eyes.

Ming Yuxia became furious. It seems like his father had prepared everything so well. He even prepared this temple a long time ago. He used to stalk his father because he was curious why he often came home late. It turns out that the man built a temple here.

It was originally a temple to pray for his mother, but getting here it seemed like Ming An had never done that again. That is why the temple is getting damaged and dilapidated.

"Why do you have to call a dead man?" ask Ming An.

Ming Yuxia directly gritted her teeth. He didn't think his father would say that. When he wanted to exclaim again, suddenly his shoulder was touched by Jing Ling. "Hold your anger. Let's let Xinyu handle it."

Finally Ming Yuxia could only comply. He would let Qing Yue'er do whatever she wanted. He had already said he would return the treasure, so he would not deny his own words. As long as Qing Yue'er could take the ring then everything was fine.

Qing Yue'er chuckled. He wanted to laugh at how confident Ming An was. It seemed like he had to let the man feel a little lesson.

"Uncle, maybe you should try to let the spirit beast out. Aren't you so confident that this situation is under your control?"

Ming An snorted. She hated Qing Yue'er's attitude so much that it was calm and fearless. The girl really did not feel intimidated even though she was holding a spirit ring. It seemed like he had to show that he was someone to be feared.

With the rest of the old spiritual qi not worn, he invited out the spirit beast that was inside the ring. A bright light instantly shot out from the ring and ended up landing in front of Ming An. The light formed a long and large beast. It was a black snake that had two heads. His eyes were red and looked so scary.

The look on Ming Yuxia's face instantly changed. It was a two-headed snake known as a spirit beast within the powerful ranks. He became worried whether Qing Yue'er could face the beast or not.

Ming An laughed out loud. He was satisfied with the appearance of the spirit beast. "Go! Make him feel a little snappy!" He told the two-headed snake to attack Qing Yue'er.

Instantly the snake instantly moved quickly to attack Qing Yue'er. But even the unexpected happens. As the snake was getting closer to Qing Yue'er, suddenly such a soft blue light enveloped the girl's body.

The snake that had originally been staring ferociously was immediately experiencing a change. Instead of launching an attack, he instead wrapped his body in front of Qing Yue'er. Both of his heads lowered as a sign of respect.

"This ...."

Ming An was stunned. This is not an expected result. How did the snake even submit to the girl?

Qing Yue'er smiled triumphantly. He understood one thing, something weak would fear the stronger things. Just like spirit beasts, they would also submit to something stronger. This made Qing Yue'er take advantage of that reality. He gave off the aura of Blue Phoenix and it made the two-headed snake feel fear.

The position of Blue Phoenix was clearly higher because she was a divine beast. While the two-headed snake was just an ordinary spirit beast. They would feel an instinctive fear even without the need for a match.

"Do you still feel like this situation is under your control?" Qing Yue'er asked casually.

Ming An felt his knees tighten. What he was proud of was foolishness. He had no idea what the girl was using to subdue the two-headed snake, but now he was sure that the girl must have had many trump cards up his sleeve.

When he wanted to give up, he suddenly still remembered that someone was still in his hands. He instantly took out a dagger and quickly brandished it at Ming Xuan, while the other hand was still gripping his spirit ring.

"Go and leave the snake here!" his yell.

Qing Yue'er who heard that also felt careless. Why is this guy so stubborn? Finally he waved his hand and the two-headed snake immediately turned around. The snake moved quickly and ended up in front of Ming An. His long body twisted Ming An with lightning fast speed.

Ming An widened his eyes. The spirit ring he had in his hand accidentally slipped and fell on the ground. Of course Ming Yuxia did not remain silent. The girl moved to take the ring and secure it.

As for Jing Ling, she moved to free Ming Xuan. The man was currently in a state of unconsciousness, so he had to help him.

Ming An felt a tightness in his body, his breathing becoming choked due to the twisting of the two-headed snake. He secretly felt despair. Perhaps this is what is meant by being eaten by one's own weapons.

"Don't kill him" said Ming Yuxia.

Qing Yue'er understood. After everything felt safe, he also allowed the two-headed snake to release Ming An. Then he opened the dimensional space of the ring so that the snake could re-enter.

They have to return the ring. Maybe someone else will think it's worth it, but he doesn't think it's special. Of course because he already had Ying Jun with him.

Ming Yuxia simply stared at Ming An flatly. It was undeniable that the man was his parents, but he was already feeling disappointed. Now he would do nothing to punish his father. However he had already decided one thing, he was going to leave this all behind. He had already promised to devote himself to Qing Yue'er. So that's what he's going to do for now and in the future.
