Mon has fully risen in the sky, as its light brighten the the city in the middle of the desert and on the outer pemeter of the city stood a building with an ancient artistic design.
An old man whose half body was human and other lower half a snake was moving towards the gate of the buiding, as he enters all the snake human who were guarding the building bowed down respectively and make way for him.
" why is the great elder doing here "
a snake man wishpered to the collegue beside him in a hushed voice carefull not to offend the enler.
" you don't know."
man opposite to him was slightly shocked
" is there something important in the prison we are guarding"
snake man was little curious
" oh! you are the new recruit thats why you don't know. now listen carefully, when the second queen fled away from the tribe. a human cultivator helped him to escape tagore desert and fought with our majesty the queen and was defeated, so as to know the location of the taritor, he has been held here" snake man narated the whole story to the new guard.
" but that incident hapened two years ago"
the new guard was little confused as to why a incident that happened years ago is still not finished.
" this human is quite thick skinned, for two years we are torturing him so as to open his tongue but this guy has not uttered a sibgle word in front of us. at first we thought he was mute but when her magesty the queen appeared he opened his mouth to say 'go to hell, you won't found her in this lifetime' and after that he rarely talks"
snake man let out a tired sigh, he was also one of the torturer once upon a time but now he has left that job .
......
elder pf the snake tribe kept on movng as the rows of prisons were filled with humans, and finaly stopped infront of an old prison door. he gently enjected his dou qi in it and the door opened to reveal a man who was hanging in the air with the help of rusted iron bars.
the state in which this man was can only be said that he should have died long ago. one hand was missing, one side of his chest was completely missing and bones were exposed. nails were all missing, one eye was staring at the old man while other was probably gone because blood was pouring out of it. his skin was burned at several places and leg's bones were in irregular shapes.
" ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, look at your patheticface. what a spectacle, looks like that your hands are still empty like your brains 'cough' 'cough' "
man who was hanging loughed like a madman and spoke harshly to the man who just came but due to various internal injuries he coughed lot of blood.
elder didn't pay attention to his words and took a chairs and sat on it before speaking " it rare for you to speak,good. but as always i have the same question and your answer, xiao feng"
this time man named xiao feng didn't speak and keep on staring at the elder of snake tribe with a wide grin not at all looking like a man with one leg already in grave.
" sigh, same answer. can you tell me one thing, i am very curious"
elder spoke with a tired face
xiao feng nodded gesturing him to speak.
"its been two years, that traitor might be still alive or already dead but why are still not opening your mouth for in which direction she went. what is your relationship between you two. in my knowledge that traitor never went to human land and never met a dou huang like you in the tagore desert."
elder aked with curiousity with his head resting on his hand.
on his question, xiao feng smiled not the earlier mocking grin but an peaceful smile and closed his eyes seemingly lost in his thoughts about a certain cute girl who eyes were filled with the longing for freedom and want to flap his wings like a butterfly and fly into the sky never to be caught by any filth and darkness of this damned world.
"oi, are you listining "
shout from the old elder made him return from his thoughts, he shook his head and let out a deep breath and focused his attention to the elder in front.
" i want to speak to your qween. told her that xiao fend is willing to open his mouth about his sister'
