Beast Taming: the More the Better Chapter 663 - 304: The Scent of Spring Herbs! The Astonishment of the Snake Saint’s Soul!_3

Thinking of this, a figure not far away glared indignantly at one of the two figures standing at the forefront. It was none other than Rong Cheng, who had attempted to challenge Su Ping some days ago and ended up being made an example of. After that battle, no one in the Rong Family, from the old to the young, from the high-ranking to the low-ranking, dared to question the Family Head’s decisions anymore.

Though Su Ping was an outsider, what kind of outsider could earn the approval of the Snake Ancestor, much less speak in such a manner to It? Even if most people guessed that perhaps Rong Bao had made some promise to the Snake Ancestor, it nevertheless represented the Ancestor’s endorsement. For a legacy Family like theirs, possessing the only Spirit Saint Level combatant naturally meant absolute authority within the Family!

Yet, Rong Cheng was still unreconciled.

Rong Cheng wasn’t the only one harboring such thoughts; many other younger members of the Family did as well. However, they lacked Rong Cheng’s ironclad confidence. They mostly hoped to get incredibly lucky after entering the Five Saints Secret Realms and gain the approval of the Five Saints’ Spirits. If that happened, it would truly be a blessing of a lifetime.

Amidst these varied thoughts, Rong Bao’s voice finally sounded, "Alright. Put on the family emblems that were prepared in advance. They contain our Rong Family’s secret medicine. As long as you wear them, the Five Saint Tribes within the Five Saints Secret Realms will not harm you. Enter in order!"

Behind the ancestral hall, the heavy door of the cellar at the end of the dark, descending stairs slowly creaked open. Su Ping and Rong Mang led the way.

Then they once again saw the massive jade-green serpent coiled beside the emerald spatial vortex. Its orange-green pupils locked onto them, and its pitch-black tongue flickered out as it uttered in a hoarse voice, "HISSS... Little one, give it your all. If you can gain the approval of the Five Saints’ Spirits, then no one else in the Rong Family will be able to say a thing!"

Su Ping smiled faintly but offered no reply.

This wasn’t his first time entering a Secret Realm. As he passed through the emerald spatial vortex, the world around him seemed to spin for a moment. The next second, an entirely new world appeared before Su Ping’s eyes.

It was a lush, forested world, exceedingly warm and humid.

As an ancestral Secret Realm of the Rong Family, and a cornerstone of their heritage, there was no doubt they had complete control and mastery over it. At this moment, the entrance and exit of the Five Saints Secret Realms were completely stabilized. At this entrance, five signposts had unexpectedly been erected.

The signs read: ’Cavern of Thousand Spiders’, ’Valley of Thousand Legs’, ’Hook Tail Cave’, ’Green Snake Forest’, and ’Five-Color Pond’. Five signposts, five locations, each in a different direction.

He turned to look at his older cousin, Rong Mang, who had entered with him. "Cousin, where are you planning to go?"

Rong Mang chuckled. "Green Snake Forest, naturally. Our Rong Family’s current patron Ancestor is the Snake Ancestor. If I can obtain the Egg of the Snake Saint, things will proceed much more smoothly."

Su Ping touched his nose. "That’s what I was thinking too."

Rong Mang was unconcerned. "No worries. If you also want the Egg of the Snake Saint, I can simply choose another one. The Rong Family has plenty of inheritances from the other Five Saints, so it’s not an issue."

Su Ping chuckled. "Then thank you, Cousin. If you need my help with anything later, feel free to find me!"

That counted as a promise from Su Ping.

Rong Mang’s eyebrows rose slightly, and a flicker of joy touched his heart. "We’re brothers, no need for such formalities. Alright, the Five Saints Secret Realms are vast, so let’s get moving. Since we’re both aiming for it, let’s head to Green Snake Forest together!"

As he finished speaking, a thought stirred in Rong Mang’s mind. A summoning light flared, and a massive Pet Beast materialized before them.

It was a Pet Beast Su Ping knew very well.

Its body was pitch-black, like scorched iron, and its arched neck resembled two explosive rings of iron thorns.
