My Demon Husband Is a Snake Chapter 1102: My Cleverness Wasn’t That Obvious Before

"Are you afraid of dying now? What were you doing earlier?" Yu Longting couldn’t be bothered with Piao Changji’s fate, snatched the key, and shoved it into my hand, "Try and see if it works."

"It works, it works, don’t worry about it~" Holding the Copper Key, the burning pain in the three Dantians gradually eased, making me feel like I had returned from Hell to the human world.

Luckily, the Copper Key is crucial to unlocking the prohibition against the harm from the Three Corpse Gods within me; otherwise, I’d really be doomed this time.

That was really close!

The origin of this matter is actually quite simple.

As long as you’re not like Old Zhao or my master, who sanctified their bodies and refined the Three Corpse Gods.

Both humans and monsters who cultivate have the Three Corpse Gods within them, and it’s a weakness in the path of human cultivation.

For Mystic Arts Masters who haven’t refined the Three Corpse Gods, their longevity is the same as ordinary people, destined to live, age, get sick, die, and enter the cycle of reincarnation.

The restriction in this house targets anyone with the Three Corpse Gods within them, meaning anyone other than those sanctified or the monsters.

The key in Piao Changji’s hand is the same one Bai Zanhe got from a woman in City A.

The material is slightly different, but they look identical.

Moreover, Piao Changji’s cultivation is only above average, far from reaching physical deification, yet he can be unharmed in the mansion.

I concluded in my heart that the Copper Key in his hand is crucial to unlocking the prohibition.

Let Yu Longting snatch it and try; it indeed could resolve the erosion of the Three Corpse Gods on me~

"Really? You’re still sweating on your forehead." Yu Longting gently massaged my temple, his eyes filled with unease and gloom, "Don’t lie to me. If you’re feeling unwell, you must tell me."

"Yeah, the sweating is because the pain is gradually easing, but yeah, when Snake Brother massages, it doesn’t hurt at all." I winked at Yu Longting, trying to appear relaxed and lively.

The erosion by the Three Corpse Gods is deep; recovery won’t be quick.

But I really can’t bear to see him worried about me.

With a trace of helplessness, Yu Longting gently caressed the back of my head, "My dear, you’ve really grown up; you’ve transformed to be smarter than me. If not for your timely reminder, I might have lost you today."

"I’ve been smart since I was young, just not obviously smart before." I proudly lifted my head, showing off to Yu Longting.

Yu Longting’s smile grew ever more tender, his gaze at me increasingly infatuated, "That’s true, if my intelligence wasn’t overwhelmed by yours, how else would you have managed to seduce me into bed?"

"Help me... Without the key on me, I can’t hold on for long... Dragon Queen... please have mercy." Piao Changji, having lost the Copper Key, collapsed powerlessly to the ground, clutching my ankle tightly, pleading.

I took a red string from my shoulder bag, threaded it through the keyhole, and tied a knot.

In front of Piao Changji, I hung it around my neck, "There’s no way you’ll get the key back. Once you hand over the scripture, I’ll have my man throw you out of the house and spare your life."

This guy knew there was a special prohibition in the house but didn’t tell me and even led me to use the Mysterious Art...

Clearly, he wanted to intentionally kill me, maybe not even believing Yu Longting is the Dragon Emperor.

Trying to shove both of us into the pit, there’s no reason for me to show mercy to him!

"Alright, alright, thank you, Dragon Queen, thank you for your mercy and great kindness." Terrified of dying, Piao Changji kowtowed rapidly as he stumbled to his feet, like me, blood-red pus oozing from his eyes, "Quick, follow me, if we’re late, my brain will turn to pus."

The Three Corpse Gods hide within the three Dantians of the human body. Daily, the one in the brain governs dreams, the one in the abdomen governs appetite, and the one in the foot governs the desire to kill.

Normally, people don’t feel it themselves, not knowing what use it is.

Once the Three Corpse Gods are eroded, the surrounding organs will decay and turn to pus.

Piao Changji’s Three Corpse Gods were attacked, and like me, the pus and blood would first ooze from the eyes, ears, mouth, and nose, then the brain, abdomen, and feet would gradually turn to pus...

When he dies violently, it’ll be quite a terrifying sight.

So he has no choice but to obey us.

"My dear, you’re so capable." Yu Longting narrowed his mysterious phoenix eyes, lifting my still somewhat weak self into his arms, and followed Piao Changji.
