Chapter 2745 - 54: Serpent Maiden Gazing in the Mirror

The eyes under the bed were, in fact, exceedingly soft and alluring.

But it was the outward appearance that was captivating, not the divine light within.

After all, how could you expect emotions from a Snake Demon who had slaughtered her own clan of a thousand mouths?

No one knew how much time had passed.

A slight ripple emerged in those emotionless eyes, like a sleeping Mirror Lake swallowing the wind, giving birth to life amid silence. There was even a hint of childlike confusion.

Perhaps she also didn’t understand why, after Lu Qilang had searched the room, there would still be monsters breaking in. And how was it so coincidental that this inn turned out to be Yuan Mengji’s private property?

Of course, the most coincidental of all was that they were conspiring in front of her on how to kill her!

At this moment, those uninvited malicious guests had already dispersed.

The beautiful female demon of the Snake Clan "swam" out from under the bed.

She seemed to float through the air, tumbling in the clouds and mist, still not touching anything in the room, leaving no trace behind.

Miao Man’s body suspended in mid-air, she slowly moved her gaze, carefully observing this room.

Lu Qilang had observed, Yuan Mengji had observed, and now it was her turn.

In the Mirror World, Jiang Wang quietly grasped his sword, holding his breath.

He knew that his prompting Yuan Mengji to look under the bed had ultimately made She Guyu somewhat suspicious — perhaps not suspecting there was anyone else hiding in the room, but at least wondering if something was amiss.

Otherwise, what was Yuan Mengji looking for?

Jiang Wang would never underestimate the power of such a renowned new king on the Heavenly List. He had seen Shi Shanwen’s strength firsthand; it could be said to be unrivaled in all aspects, except for lacking some trials of life and death.

And such trials, the Snake Demon known as the Red Moon King certainly did not lack.

After all, she had made rivers of blood flow, being hunted for several months on end by both heaven and earth.

The power that such a seasoned killer can erupt with in the face of life and death is truly terrifying.

If not necessary, Jiang Wang would never want to face her, at least not in his current physical state.

But sometimes, there is no choice but to hold the sword.

Fate plays tricks on people, fate plays tricks on people!

Although the thousand-year-old dragon-tiger ginseng had not yet arrived, and his physical injuries were far from healed, if She Guyu really sensed something, he might have no choice but to fight to the death.

The only consolation is that he doesn’t want to make a scene, and neither does She Guyu, being a culprit.

Then perhaps he has the chance to silently kill the opponent, and the survival quest in the Monster Realm could still continue.

Time passed by slowly.

She Guyu’s gaze swept across the entire room, not missing any corners, naturally glancing over Red Mirror a few times.

Every time, it seemed that a life-and-death crisis was about to erupt.

But in the end, it was just a glance.

Suddenly, she moved lightly and floated to the dressing table.

Jiang Wang’s heart, which had just calmed, was once again set on edge, Path Origin rapidly gathering. He was ready to leap out of Red Mirror at any moment, bloodshed within five steps, deciding life and death!

She Guyu sat down.

She sat in the air, not touching the round stool in front of the dressing table.

Slightly absent-minded, she yawned a sleepy yawn, her jade fingers reaching behind her swan-like neck, gently tugging the hairband—her beautiful and silky purple hair cascaded down like a waterfall.

Her beautiful features appeared even more alluring because of this.

In those eyes, indifferent to emotions, there was unexpectedly a touch of a young girl’s innocence.

Perhaps not wanting to leave a mark, she ignored the thin layer of light gray on the mirror, simply gazing at her reflection, using her jade hand as a comb to slowly brush her long hair.

Her movements were gentle, exuding a particular charm.

In the Mirror World, Jiang Wang was extremely alert. He did not want to misjudge any action, taking risks that shouldn’t be taken, engaging in unnecessary slaughter, but even more, he did not want to be caught off guard and killed.

Thus, he observed She Guyu with the utmost seriousness.

He had never observed a female demon so intently, a highly beautiful, charming female demon combing her hair by the mirror.

Naturally, he noticed her beauty, her allure, her innocence.

Even though his eyes saw no gender, only an opponent, he couldn’t help being momentarily captivated by a natural and divine beauty.

Time seemed to stand still.

The afternoon sun’s lingering glow slipped through the cracks in the window, gently sprinkling across the room.

At this moment, there were no other spectators. In this very ordinary guest room, She Guyu, who slaughtered her own clan of a thousand mouths, after enduring months of life-and-death pursuit, and overhearing a conspiracy against her... quietly sat here, dressing herself before the mirror.

She should have made rivers of blood flow, she should have taken Yuan Mengji’s head and stamped it beneath her feet.

Why is she here, admiring herself in the mirror, bewildered and lost?

Clearly, she appears as a self-loving, self-pitying, exceptionally beautiful young lady, not like the infamously fierce Red Moon Demon King.

She must have a story...

She must have had unavoidable reasons for slaughtering her own clan...

Everyone who saw this scene would find it hard not to forgive her in their hearts.

But Jiang Wang cared not for such things. He only observed She Guyu’s actions, calmly scrutinizing her vulnerabilities, formulating various battle plans in his mind for various situations.

Although they hadn’t truly clashed yet, in the Dream Order, she already had no fewer than ten ways to die. Of course, in all likelihood, they could not be realized.

In the jade drops from the Chapter platform, flowers bloom early; who sees the hidden beauty in the dark room?

She Guyu slowly completed her makeup, pinned up her beautiful purple hair again, changed angles a few times before the mirror, and seemed satisfied, finally rising up.
