Chapter 1535: The Fool Catches the Magician 16

Su Yan looked at everyone. No one knew how to deal with the snake demon for a moment.

The Su family's principle in dealing with ghosts has always been to redeem and persuade them. If redemption and persuasion are really impossible, they will be suppressed. If suppression is still not possible, the last step will be to destroy them.

Fang Huanshan, the head of the Maoshan sect, was just about to beat the snake demon back to its original form, but Father Su stepped forward and suggested, "She has never harmed anyone and has no sins. Let's just spare her life this time."

Fang Huanshan disagreed, "This snake demon has hurt so many people, and her wildness is hard to tame. I think it would be safest to beat her back to her original form."

"Yes, yes, this snake demon is too dangerous. It's better to beat it back to its original form."

"I agree too."

"That's how it should be."

Following Fang Huanshan's lead, a group of people behind him nodded in agreement.

Upon hearing this, the snake demon tried to struggle, but the more it struggled, the tighter the chains on its body became.

She said angrily: "I have worked hard for a thousand years to cultivate, and I will be able to ascend in one year. I have also been deceived. Please forgive me this time, and don't beat me back to my original form."

Fang Huanshan said, "If there is a first time, there will be a second time. This time you attacked humans without asking for the reason, which shows that you are bloodthirsty. If I let you off this time, there is no guarantee that there won't be a next time."

Snake demon: "I promise to hide in the mountains and forests to practice, and never offend humans again."

Father Su also pleaded for her: "Why not give her a light punishment and a severe warning? After all, she is not the culprit."

Fang Huanshan: "But she injured so many people."

For a while, the two sides started arguing. Su's father wanted to show mercy while Fang Huanshan wanted to wipe out the roots.

Because he had learned from his disciples that his young disciple Fang Xiaoxiao had just killed the weasel demon that was with the snake demon, and he was afraid that the snake demon would avenge the weasel demon, so he advocated beating the snake demon back to its original form.

Originally, both of them were right, but they overlooked one thing: the snake demon was caught by Su Yan.

The final right of disposal still lies in Su Yan's hands.

The snake demon was very scared when she saw them arguing about her own affairs. Suddenly, she saw the woman beside her leisurely watching everyone. She suddenly had an idea and knelt down in front of Su Yan and begged for mercy: "Please forgive me this time. I was really deceived. I have never eaten anyone. Aren't you cultivators the most concerned about karma? My crime does not deserve death."

Everyone looked at Su Yan, and Fang Huanshan advised righteously: "Niece, don't be soft-hearted. She is a demon, and her words cannot be trusted."

Father Su also looked at Su Yan. He seemed to want to say something but stopped himself. He didn't want to make things difficult for his daughter, so he let her do whatever she wanted.

Su Yan's lips curled up slightly, and his cold voice reached everyone's ears.

"If I let you go, someone will be worried. If I don't let you go, it seems too cruel. How about this? You stay by my side and be my subordinate. You can be free only after I die. How do you think?"

"Nonsense! How can you keep a monster around?" Father Su was the first to object, thinking that his daughter was too naive. This was a snake monster. It would be very dangerous to keep it around.

Although he advocated sparing the snake demon's life, he did not dare to keep her by his side. Who knew when she would suddenly go crazy and hurt people?

Fang Huanshan also said: "Niece Su, you can't do this. The snake demon is not a pet. It is too dangerous to keep it around. It is easier and more convenient to beat it back to its original form."

Seeing that everyone was about to suggest that she turn herself back to her original form, the snake demon quickly agreed with Su Yan's suggestion and took the initiative to say, "I am willing to be your assistant. I will stay by your side honestly. Even if you can live to be a thousand years old, I am willing to accompany you for a thousand years. Please don't turn me back to my original form."

If she was beaten back to her original form, if she was lucky, she might be able to transform again through hard practice.

If you are unlucky, you will be killed by other wild animals or hunters.

If she were to choose, of course she would choose to stay with Su Yan. As long as she died, she would be free. How many years can she, a mere human being, live?

In a hundred years at most, she would be free again.

Su Yan was very satisfied after hearing this and said with a smile: "You said that even if I live for a thousand years, you will stay by my side and listen to me?"

The snake demon swore to the sky to show his loyalty: "I swear, as long as you live one day, I will accompany you one day, be your subordinate, and never betray you."

"Absolutely not, Niece Su, what's the point of such an oath? It's not binding at all."

"Yes, the snake demon's words cannot be trusted."

"Haha, isn't this courting her own destruction? If one day she kills her master, she will be free."

"This is simply courting disaster."

"She is indeed a naive little girl."

......

No one agreed, not even the Su family members.

Junior sister has just returned to normal, how can she restrain a demon?

While everyone was talking about it, Su Yan nodded to the snake demon and said, "You said it. If you break your promise, you will suffer the pain of thousands of arrows piercing your heart."

The snake demon was puzzled and asked, "What do you mean by the pain of thousands of arrows piercing your heart?"

Su Yan took back the demon-binding chain and threw a bracelet to the snake demon for her to wear.

The snake demon was not very willing, but under Su Yan's cold gaze, it put it on obediently.

Once she put it on, she couldn't take it off. She felt a little uneasy, and then looked at Su Yan in confusion.

Su Yan smiled and said, "This bracelet is a gift from me to you. When you are free, it will untie itself."

The snake demon asked again: "What do you mean?"

Su Yan: "As long as you don't break your oath, nothing will happen. Wear it with confidence."

Only Fang Xiaoxiao, who came from the world of immortal cultivation, understood what she meant.

If you swear an oath to heaven and break it, you will be pierced by thousands of arrows.

But in this world, such oaths are useless, and the oaths made by heaven have no binding force at all.

Then this bracelet should be under some kind of curse that can have the effect of punishment.
