Half a month later, at the Sixteenth Alley of Demon Dispel, Xin Si Courtyard.
In a compartment with three walls enclosed and one side open.
A short and stout man in a brown short-sleeved outfit scrutinized Chen Mu up and down.
"New here?"
"Manager Wu, your keen eye never fails." Chen Mu respectfully cupped his fists.
"Spare me the bootlicking." Manager Wu's face remained impassive. "Skin and dismember it. You have an hour."
As he spoke, he tossed a two-meter-long Eagle-beaked White Jade Snake onto the stone table before Chen Mu.
Chen Mu cupped his fists again, grabbed the forearm-length slim blade by the table, and promptly got to work.
The Triple Yin Slaying Demon Technique activated silently, and a verdant green light enveloped the blade.
Splk.
It was as if the hot blade was cutting through solidified butter, as the protective energy enveloping the snake's body was instantly penetrated.
