The Serpents' Lair 2

"Hiss."

"Hiss~"

"Hiss!"

"Tsk, Are you all idiots? I am not here to take your territory from you or anything. I just need to grab a few of these flowers here. Once I am done with that, of course I will leave on my own way. What fun would I get staying in this cold and bland place for a lifetime? My blood is warm unlike yours. I definitely need some warmth around me instead of being covered up with the snow all year around." Tanzi let out all her outburst at the snakes that just accused her of stealing their 'homes' and 'sending' them away.

No matter how beautiful the scenery in front of her looked, it was still too white to stay there for a lifetime.

Wouldn't one get bored of staying in front of such a bland color forever?

Even if someone can really do so, at least Tanzi couldn't do that.

For Tanzi, some fresh and peaceful colors should surround her in order for her to wish to stay forever.

Just like the place that the Merman had previously shown her. That place would be her ultimate target for a permanent home for the future.

She then looked at the three snakes and then at the snow around them in disgust. Definitely not in this place which these stupid snakes love to live.

The snakes too felt the disgust that she just directed at them and their 'home'.

"Hiss."

"Hiss~"

"Hiss!"

"Oh please! Don't lump me together with you all. I would never like to stay in this place. You can live here all you want." She waved her hands casually with a hint of disgust again.

"Hiss."

"Hiss~"

"Hiss!"

"Are you doubting my words now? How dare you?" She once again flared up once they doubted her words.

"Hiss."

"Hiss~"

"Hiss!"

"What did you say? You can't trust my words because I did not torture like I said earlier?" Tanzi gritted her teeth and interlocked her hands before crackling her fingers while looking at them dangerously, "Don't worry. I will not go back on my word on that."

With that she took a step forward and at once the three snakes froze in their spots and got together as if they were hugging each other to have a little support from the ones beside them.

Her looming hands above their heads made them realize that they had provoked the wrong person.

Not just the three snakes but all the other ones that had formed into a circle around them and kept on watching all this too closed their eyes in fear about thinking of what would happen to their lives for provoking this demoness.

After a few minutes, what appeared in the same place was Shao Rong once again found herself a small rock and dragged it to place it in the middle of the 'circle' and sat on it.

She forwarded her hands to take in some warmth from the bonfire that she created just to enjoy the new weather that she would not witness on a regular basis.

But above the bonfire, there is something hanging loosely.

The 'circle' that was around Tanzi earlier was still present but surprisingly enough, the diameter of the new circle increased to almost double.

All the snakes were watching Tanzi like she was really the Demoness reincarnated.

Their fearful eyes couldn't help but land over their three brothers that were once the most arrogant among the bunch. But now, they were tied to each other and were also hanging above fire.

One misslip and they would instantly burn to death.

Just what did they get themselves into because of their long and loose tongues.

"Hiss."

"Hiss~"

"Hiss!"

"Heh! Now you want me to let you leave? Didn't I say earlier that I would make you seek for your death? You are still in the first phase of my treatment. How can I stop in the middle?" She sneered at the snakes that were trying to beg her to let them leave.

After torturing them for a while, somehow Tanzi started liking these small bunch of snakes. It is fun teasing them.

They were scared that they would suddenly get loose and would fall into the fire below them.

But of course Tanzi had made sure that they would not fall no matter what happened.

With the heat that was touching their scales, they are having the most tortured life they could ever have in their entire life.

Now that fear replaced their smug faces, Tanzi sure enjoyed the view.

Looking at them, she crossed her legs and started humming a tune to enjoy herself.
