My Demon Husband Is a Snake

"Certainly, certainly, no problem,"

"Madam is well-informed and experienced; the method she proposed will surely be effective."

It must have been Yu Longting or Chang Hao who had brainwashed them; all the big and small snakes trusted me immensely.

Seeing that the room's pomelo leaves had been taken by Chang Hao's subordinates to boil bath water, I took the initiative and said, "Your bodies aren't suited for being near the pomelo tree, I'll go pick them. You guys wait here for a moment."

The hierarchical ranks within the Snake Sect were distinctly clear.

Initially, the Snake Attendants were extremely apprehensive and dared not let me pick the leaves for them.

I gave Chang Hao a look, and only after he spoke did he manage to soothe the uneasy crowd of snakes.

After a while, Xiao Shenshen and I brought over the pomelo leaves.

The refreshing fragrance of the pomelo leaves was pleasant to me, but not so much for the snakes.

One by one, they pinched their noses, their expressions filled with immense suffering as they rubbed it on their bodies.

"Let me help you rub it; your hands are all burned red." I noticed the pomelo leaves emitted an aura that repelled evil; when the Snake Attendants held them, it would scorch their skin.

I simply took the leaves and helped them wipe the areas contaminated by the malevolent aura, "There, the evil aura has been removed, now go find some water to wash off the pomelo scent quickly, or it will be very painful on your skin."

Indeed, the pomelo leaves were a tool to drive away evil spirits. The meticulously prepared Snake Medicine, which couldn't remove the evil aura, was cleansed away by a few wipes of the pomelo leaves.

Suddenly, the Snake Attendants knelt down en masse on the ground.

They all prostrated themselves in a grand gesture, kowtowing towards me.

I was utterly startled, "What are you doing?"

"Ahem~ They didn't expect that the Snake Lord's Madam... would be so amiable and approachable." Chang Hao coughed lightly and explained to me, "You'll get used to it."

So how tyrannical was Yu Longting's rule usually?

They had gotten used to being PUA-ed~

Yet just by treating their Snake Scales disease with pomelo leaves, they were this grateful.

I nodded, stood up, and helped them up one by one, "Alright, alright, are you all here to perform a tragedy? Go wash off, if you leave it on too long the pomelo leaves might affect your bodies as much as the Snake Scales disease..."

"Yes~ Madam~"

The Snake Attendants, probably pitying me for my difficulties in moving with a large belly, saw me coming to help them up and didn't dare continue kneeling.

All of them got up uniformly, and as they left, each of them was overjoyed, "This bout of contamination with evil aura was worth it, Madam personally used the pomelo leaves to treat our lesions."

"It's truly a huge gain; Madam is so gentle."

"Liu Hongluan really is terrible, by secretly harming Madam, she not only harmed others and herself but implicated us all..."

Meanwhile, the bath water was quickly ready.

Lui Hongluan, wearing gloves, was thrown by the Snake Attendants into it, screaming incessantly in the pomelo water.

I knew that for her to be cured this time, she would at least have to lose a layer of skin.

Unable to bear staying, I went outside.

Chang Hao followed me out, "She actually maliciously passed the evil aura to you, Madam, rest assured, the old servant will pry her mouth open and make her tell the truth."

"Yes, considering Liu Hongluan's actions, she must have a mastermind behind her." Lately, I've been increasingly lethargic, feeling weary after walking just a few steps, lazily leaning against a pillar in the outside corridor, "Before I came to the Snake Sect... such a messy situation should have been rare, right? It's my arrival that has burdened everyone."

"Madam's words are not correct, the Snake Lord brought you to the Snake Sect precisely to ensure your safety; it is just... we have let the Snake Lord down, failing to forge the Snake Sect into an impregnable fortress."

Chang Hao not only did not blame me but instead began to blame himself.

Suddenly, a pure white Jade Tablet flew in from the direction of the mountain gates.

It seemed the Jade Tablet carried some urgent matter, emitting a series of crisp, sullen warnings as the jade collided,
