Chapter 407: Chapter 406: Many Gains

"Sister Man, don’t worry, this blood is from the python, I’m not hurt."

Zhang Xiaoshan spun around twice on the spot before Jiang Man finally felt somewhat relieved.

"Brother Zhang, we meet again."

Ma Zhiming was the first to rush up and shake hands with Zhang Xiaoshan, brimming with enthusiasm.

"Little Shan actually calls the county’s vice chairman sister, and the manager from the town voluntarily calls himself brothers with Little Shan? Does he really have such strong personal connections?"

The villagers who had watched Zhang Xiaoshan grow up were all astonished.

The most distressed was Wu Daming.

"When did this kid meet the senior leaders?"

"Damn, isn’t he going to take the opportunity to report me?"

At that moment, he was somewhat regretful about having made his relationship with Zhang Xiaoshan so hostile.

"Thanks to Little Shan today, we were able to kill this python."

Ge Xiue seized the opportunity to speak the truth.

She recounted the events from the start.

"So, Wu Daming, you said it was your village protection team that killed the python, didn’t you?"

Ma Zhiming glared at Wu Daming.

"Ah, haha, I, I..."

"A misunderstanding, there’s a misunderstanding here."

Wu Daming, embarrassed, wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

"Are you crazy? You actually dared to chase such a big python alone, do you have a death wish?"

Jiang Man grabbed Zhang Xiaoshan’s hand, highly agitated.

All of a sudden, everyone’s expression changed.

"Cough, cough..."

Zhang Xiaoshan coughed twice, and Jiang Man then realized she had lost her composure and hurriedly withdrew her hand.

"Sister Man, don’t worry, I really am not hurt, I’ll be careful in the future."

"The trouble has already been dealt with today, so there’s no need for concern."

Jiang Man was speechless.

At that moment, Wu Daming stepped forward, smiling cheerfully.

"Leaders, it’s getting late, why don’t I arrange a meal for you now, then set up accommodations, and you can leave tomorrow morning?"

Ma Zhiming looked at Jiang Man, waiting for her decision.

Jiang Man thought for a moment.

"Given today’s sudden incident, everyone hasn’t eaten yet, so let’s have a meal first. It’s indeed too late, and it’s dangerous to leave the mountain, so let’s rest for the night and head home tomorrow morning."

"However, let’s not have too elaborate a meal, and we will pay the expense ourselves."

Of course, she had another thought she didn’t voice, which was hoping to spend more time with Zhang Xiaoshan.

"Alright, alright, we’ll go by your arrangement."

Wu Laohu quietly sighed in relief.

The group descended the mountain.

Wu Daming initially intended to take everyone back to his own home, but Jiang Man insisted on going to the village office.

The conditions inside the village office were relatively modest, but there were some vacant houses suitable for housing.

Some women began helping to start fires for cooking.

Wu Daming took the initiative to slaughter two sheep.

Although Jiang Man was somewhat displeased, since a group of staff members were all hungry, she didn’t say much.

After all, as a leader, she also needed to maintain unity.

While everyone was eating, Zhang Xiaoshan went back to the mountain pass with his tools.

He plunged his hand into the heart of the Red Training Snake King.

A bright red heart was pulled out by him.

"The medicine to restore Shen Xinhe’s appearance still lacked a highly poisonous ingredient. The Red Training Snake King’s poison is fierce; this heart could be just right for that purpose."

After that, he directly sliced open the Red Training Snake King’s belly.

The moment the belly was cut open, a dazzling red light burst forth.

A fist-sized pearl, like a small red light bulb, was revealed.

This was the gallbladder of the Red Training Snake King.

Zhang Xiaoshan held it in his hand.

The gallbladder had mutated.

It had less of a fleshy feel and resembled a crystal gem.

It contained a pure force.

"Though this Red Training Snake King only has a lifespan of three to four hundred years, because it has swallowed quite a few Gold and Silver Fruits, its power is comparable to a Mountain Spirit with five to six hundred years of cultivation and it has begun to form an inner core. Husband, if you could refine it, you would absolutely reach the first level of the Nine Dragon Skill and completely enter the Qi Transformation Realm," Susu’s voice echoed in his mind.

Zhang Xiaoshan was overjoyed.

But then Susu cautioned again.

"This half-formed Demon Core contains power that is too cold and yin; refining it could be dangerous. Husband, it would be best if you could find an inner core with supreme yang power to refine together, increasing its potency."

"Alright, I’m not in a hurry to reach the Qi Transformation now, I’ll wait for now."

Zhang Xiaoshan responded to Susu, twisted off the Red Training Snake King’s pointed horn, and planned to leave.

"Huh?"

He scanned the body of the Red Training Snake King and seemed to think of something else. He crouched on the ground and began collecting the venomous blood and muscle from key parts of the snake.

Half an hour later, he returned home.

He started to get busy in the kitchen.

While Yu Xiuxiu helped Xu Jing decoct the medicine, he prepared the medical treatment for Jiang Man’s appearance.

It was an hour later by the time he finished.

"It’s finally done."

In the iron basin before Zhang Xiaoshan, a basin of black, sticky liquid appeared.

It also emitted a foul smell.

But Zhang Xiaoshan was quite excited as he scooped up a bowl and headed to Shen Xinhe’s room.
