Huang Rong from The Return of the Condor Heroes: Brother Jing, let's get a divorce.

Yang Guo leaned against the cold cliff wall, barely able to catch his breath.

In front of them stood the Snake King, as thick as a water bucket, and beside him, the Divine Eagle, as large as a small hill.

The two beasts were three zhang apart, staring at each other.

The air was stifling.

Yang Guo put his hands behind his back, pressed them against the stone surface, and tried to move two steps to the left.

As soon as he stood on tiptoe, the eagle's flat head turned ninety degrees, its brownish-yellow eyes fixed on him.

The snake king also turned its head, its scarlet tongue flicking out, saliva dripping onto the ground, burning the grass and causing it to emit white smoke.

Row.

Yang Guo pulled his foot back and slid down the cliff to the bottom, landing hard on his backside in the mud.

You two gentlemen are the main characters, I'll make room for you.

He covered his head with both hands, curled up into a ball, and didn't even glance at anyone else.

His past experience working on film sets taught him that when gods are fighting, extras should lie down and not try to steal the spotlight, or they'll be the first to die.

This trick really works.

He had barely squatted down when the eagle launched its attack.

The raspy voice let out an extremely unpleasant cry, and with a sudden flap of its two bare, fleshy wings, all the withered leaves and pebbles on the ground were swept into the air.

With a powerful push from its thick claws, the giant eagle leaped into the air and pounced on the snake king.

The snake king was not intimidated at all.

Its half-erect body leaned back to dodge the eagle's iron beak, and then its thick tail swept across with a strong gust of wind.

A muffled thud!

The snake's tail lashed solidly onto the eagle's wing.

The commotion was so great that the shockwave hit Yang Guo directly in the face.

Yang Guo was thrown over and rolled three or four times in the mud before finally crashing into a rotten tree stump.

His mouth tasted muddy and fishy, ​​and the five cuts on his back started bleeding again.

"Fuck your mother!"

Yang Guo spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva and crawled on his hands and feet into a sunken pit.

The pit wasn't big; it was just big enough to hide his body.

The commotion outside is getting louder and louder.

The eagle's claws dug into the snake king's scales, making a squeaking sound and sending sparks flying everywhere.

The snake king opened its blood-red maw and bit at the eagle's neck.

The divine eagle was very agile; it shrank its head and pecked directly at the snake king's vital spot with its iron beak.

The snake king writhed wildly in pain.

It unleashed all its brute strength on the things around it.

It snapped a huge tree, as thick as a person's embrace, with one lash of its tail, sending splinters flying everywhere.

It crushed a waist-high rock into pieces.

Yang Guo lay face down in the pit, his hands tightly covering his head.

A rock the size of a fist flew over and hit him on the shoulder, making him gasp in pain.

He looked up and peered out from the edge of the pit.

The Divine Eagle and the Serpent King were already rolling around together.

The divine eagle used its two large claws to firmly press down on the snake king's body, and its iron beak kept pecking at the gaps between its scales.

The snake king then coiled up, intending to strangle the divine eagle to death.

These two beasts really got into a fight.

They had scraped off a layer of the surrounding ground.

Yang Guo swallowed hard as he watched.

With the strength of those two, if I had fought them head-on, I wouldn't even have been left with a whole corpse.

As he was thinking about how to slip away in the chaos, he suddenly heard a dense rustling sound.

The sound came from all directions.

He turned his head and saw countless spotted snakes emerging from the surrounding grass and crevices in the rocks.

These are all Bosqu snakes, much smaller than the snake king, but in extremely large numbers, densely packed together in this direction.

They came to help the snake king fight.

Yang Guo cursed inwardly.

These little bastards had to come at this exact moment of all times.

Hundreds of Bodhi snakes rushed into the battlefield and bit the eagle's legs.

The Condor Heroes has become a hit.

It released the snake king, stood on one leg, and stomped wildly on the ground with the other leg.

Those claws were ridiculously large; one stomp could flatten three or four snakes.

Its two fleshy wings swept across the ground, the air currents carrying sand and stones, directly sending more than a dozen snakes flying, crashing into the stone wall and turning them into a bloody pulp.

The snake king seized the opportunity to launch a counterattack.

Its massive body rolled wildly on the ground, trying to entangle the Divine Eagle again.

As it rolled, the eagle failed to entangle itself, but instead crushed many of its own minions to death.

The massive body, as thick as a water bucket, rolled over the spotted snake on the ground, crushing it into a pile of mangled flesh before it even had a chance to cry out.

Yang Guo lay in the pit, looking at a spot about two zhang away. A spotted snake as thick as an arm was swept by the snake king's tail and flew over, landing with a "plop" right in front of his nose.

The snake's belly had been ripped open, its intestines spilling out onto the ground. It wasn't quite dead yet, its tail twitching.

Yang Guo shrank back in disgust.

Just then, something purplish-black rolled out of the snake's ruptured belly.

It was only about the size of a thumbnail, round and smooth, with a strange, sweet and fishy smell.

Yang Guo's eyes lit up.

Snake gall!

The gallbladder of the Bodhi snake!

This morning, he was chased by the Divine Eagle for half a mountain just to steal this thing.

Back then, the divine eagle ate this thing like it ate fried beans, one bite at a time.

Yang Guo's Adam's apple bobbed up and down twice.

He is currently depleted of internal energy, has an injury on his back, and his legs are as weak as noodles.

If I could eat this thing, I might be able to recoup some of my investment.

He looked up and looked ahead.

The Divine Eagle and the Snake King were locked in a fierce battle and had no time to pay attention to this man hiding in the pit.

Yang Guo reached out and swiftly scooped up the purplish-black snake gall.

He casually wiped the snake gallbladder with his sleeve to remove the mud and blood, then tilted his head back and threw it directly into his mouth.

As soon as the snake gall bladder broke, an extremely bitter taste spread in his mouth, making his facial features scrunch up.

But after the bitterness comes a strong, refreshing fragrance.

The substance slid down the throat and into the stomach.

Before I could finish half a cup of tea, a burning sensation rose in my stomach.

This heat was extremely domineering, rushing directly into his meridians and traveling through his limbs and bones.

Yang Guo's originally empty dantian was suddenly activated by this heat, causing the red and black innate primordial energy bead to spin rapidly.

Sixteen years of refined internal energy are beginning to be replenished little by little.

The burning pain in my back was also greatly reduced by the heat.

"This is good stuff!"

Yang Guo licked his lips, his eyes gleaming green.

He became bolder.

Outside, the ground was littered with the dead Bodhi snakes, some trampled to death by the Divine Eagle and others crushed by the Snake King.

Within a three-zhang radius of his pit, there were more than a dozen dead snakes lying around.

Yang Guo crouched down and crawled out of the pit.

He dared not stand up straight, so he lay flat on the ground, using all four limbs to crawl toward the nearest dead snake.

The snake's head was smashed by a stone, but half of its body was still writhing.

Without thinking twice, Yang Guo reached out and felt around on the snake's belly.

Find the spot about seven inches below the skin, put two fingers together, insert them directly into the snakeskin, and dig hard.

He pulled out a snake gall bladder stained with blood.

Not caring about the dirt, he wiped it on his clothes and threw it directly into his mouth.

Chew it thoroughly and swallow.

A second burst of heat exploded in my stomach.

The internal energy in his meridians increased again.

The soreness in my legs has subsided considerably, and my strength is slowly returning to my body.

Yang Guo grinned and laughed out loud.

What's this called?

This is called "fortune favors the bold".

You two bosses are fighting it out here, while I'm just following behind picking up the scraps.

Is there any better deal in the world?

He continued crawling through the mud, targeting the dead snakes that had been smashed and flattened.

The third one, the fourth one, the fifth one.

After swallowing the snake gall, the heat in his body grew stronger.

The Nine Yin True Qi surged through the meridians, transforming all the heat into pure internal energy.

Yang Guo felt his whole body brimming with energy, and even his breathing became heavy.

The medicinal effects of the snake gall bladder were even stronger than he had anticipated.

When Yang Guo ate the seventh one, he felt a little full.

There was too much heat in the meridians, and the Nine Yin True Qi could not keep up with the conversion speed. The excess heat began to move down to the lower abdomen.

He felt hot all over, his mouth was dry, and the tattered Taoist robe that was clinging to his body was soaked with sweat and dried by his body heat, making it very uncomfortable to stick to his skin.

He stopped and leaned against a large rock, catching his breath.

I can't eat this anymore, or I'll definitely get a nosebleed.

He peeked out and continued watching the show.

The battle between the Divine Eagle and the Serpent King has reached a fever pitch.

The serpent king's dark golden scales were pecked off by the divine eagle, revealing the bright red flesh underneath.

The eagle didn't fare any better; the snake king bit the base of its left wing. Although the bite wasn't deep, a large clump of yellow hair fell out, and black blood seeped out.

Both beasts were extremely exhausted and were not as fast as before.

The eagle grabbed the snake king's tail with one claw, intending to swing it up and smash it against the stone wall.

Using this momentum, the Snake King coiled its body around the Divine Eagle's neck.

A bird and a snake were tightly intertwined, rolling around in the pile of rocks.
