The Beast God Sanctum experienced great change in a short period of time. One day, they were celebrating the finale of the Liu Wu Festival and the grand auction. The next day, the great Immortal Lion of Fortitude He Zicheng had fallen.
Now, Immortal Crimson Eagle Qu Shen was the undisputed ruler of Beast God Sanctum and Beast God City. With this came great and rapid changes that shocked the noble clans as well as the common people. The biggest of which was the revival of the snake lord's faction.
Immortal Embracing Python Mei Qiaofeng, Immortal Dust Scorpion Tie Buqun; these were names that once shook the city. Now they had returned and everything changed with them. Old faces appeared from hiding to declare their loyalty. Others hid in the darkness, terrified that their past betrayals would cause them to be uprooted at any moment.
The political landscape of the city shifted like a great earthquake. Some families fell while others shot up to the top. One family that experienced both in a dizzying fashion was the insignificant Wei Clan.
"You all may rise," An imperious female voice sounded throughout an otherwise silent hall.
Several rows of frightened figures got their feet, their eyes still glued to the floor, not daring to look at the powerful figure sitting in front as well as the two women that flanked her.
Immortal Embracing Python Mei Qiaofeng looked down on these people like criminals. Indeed, they were criminals to her. They were the people of the Wei Clan who had betrayed her and the snake lord's faction. The biggest culprit of this was Wei Yang, the muddled-headed clan head.
"What you all have done; you are most clear in your heart." She said, "It is a crime deserving of death and familial extermination."
She let those words hang over their heads like an executioner's blade. They all quivered, except for one person, the senior concubine. Her name was Qu Zhiya and she could be considered a member of the Qu Clan from one of the branch families. She raised her head and glared defiantly at Mei Qiaofeng.
"What are you saying? We are all loyal supporters of Grand Elder Crimson Eagle and the Qu Clan. We have done nothing wrong. I want to seek the grand elder for justice!"
Mei Qiaofeng smiled but it was filled with cruelty. She flicked her finger as if she was annoyed by a small insect. A ray of spiritual energy shot out, controlled by her immortal will. In a flash, it penetrated Qu Zhiya's forehead, leaving a bloody hole the size of a fingernail. Qu Zhiya opened her mouth to scream but no sound came out. She then crumbled to the floor, completely dead.
"Anyone else?" Mei Qiaofeng asked while playing with her fingernails.
Nobody dared to utter a sound.
"Hehe, you all shouldn't have any misunderstandings. The reason why I am here, who do you think allowed it? The Grand Elder recognizes the crimes brought about by the lion lord and is working to undo those evils. We have to clear our internal tumors and warts before the Beast God Sanctum can emerge stronger than before, supported by three factions working in harmony."
Mei Qiaofeng sighed and looked to her side, "Disciple Wei Peng, hear my order."
The young miss of the Wei Clan fell to her knees, "Master!"
Mei Qiaofeng's expression softened, "Wei Peng, you fulfilled my task for you. You stayed true to me and I appreciate that. My first disciple position is currently open. Your senior sisters all perished. Do you want to be my first disciple and receive the complete snake demon transformation art?"
Tears poured down Wei Peng's cheek as she started to sob, "Y... yes, master... master!"
"Haha, silly girl, crying is good. Crying is like spring rain that will bring about a new beginning for us."
"Thank you, Lord Mei!" Wei Peng's mother also fell to her knees and kowtowed.
"Thank you, Lord Mei!" The rest of the Wei Clan also followed her lead and kowtowed.
"Tch, fine. I won't kill the rest of you. You're lucky. Your crimes are not as bad as some of the others. Like the lion clan, most of their heads will get chopped off soon..." She beckoned, "Wei Peng, come."
With that, she left the hall and the crowd of frightened mortals.
Mei Qiaofeng led Wei Peng to their private quarters. Wei Peng obediently served her master some tea and waited patiently. Mei Qiaofeng studied her disciple carefully, even sniffing her a few times. 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓅𝓊𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
"How many men did you sleep within the last year?" She asked.
Wei Peng was taken aback and blushed, "Master... I... only one."
"Only one?" Mei Qiaofeng asked.
"I... I was worried about master and under a lot of stress after the fall of the snake faction. My father tried to find a husband for me but I refused them all. It was only a few weeks ago that I slept with someone accidentally."
"Oh? What happened?"
Still blushing, Wei Peng described being heavily injured during the Liu Wu Festival and receiving senior brother Qu Jing's intimate treatment.
"Oh! So, it was Qu Jing," Mei Qiaofeng giggled, "That makes things easier. You did a very good thing."
"I... I did?"
"Hehe, Qu Jing is the brightest star of the Qu Clan right now. He has already been selected by grand elder Qu Shen as the next head of the Qu Clan."
"This... wow!"
It was well known that Qu Jing's prospects were good. But nobody could have expected that he could rise so quickly while still a mortal.
"This is good. This perfectly aligns with my plans for you." Mei Qiaofeng said.
"Master, please instruct me."
"Mmm. My snake demon transformation art is an exclusively female beast transformation art that I developed with the help of the late snake lord. I will now teach you the secret behind it..."
Wei Peng held her breath as her eyes shined with excitement.
Mei Qiaofeng smiled, "You know that I like to sleep with many men, often several at the same time?"
"Yes, master."
"Haven't you ever wondered why? Is it just because I love sex and I love cocks? Well, that's true but that's not the main reason. The reason is actually quite simple..."
Mei Qiaofeng explained that certain snakes had a strange habit of mating that involved large orgies. Many male snakes will gather around one or a few female snakes in an attempt to mate, creating a ball of snakes embracing each other in a lengthy escapade.
This was where her immortal title came from as well as the foundation of her immortal art. In essence, all beast transformation arts sought inspiration from beasts as well as their power. Her snake demon transformation art needed to be cultivated while embracing men, as many men as possible, just like a female snake.
"I see..." Wei Peng was stunned.
She had been mentally prepared for something like this. After all, she had been Mei Qiaofeng's disciple for many decades. But the truth was still a shock.
"Then who?" She muttered, somewhat already knowing the answer.
Mei Qiaofeng giggled, "The snake faction has only just reemerged. The grand elder's command is for everyone within Beast God Sanctum to work together with us to reestablish the three beast factions as equals. Therefore, I can get you anyone you want."
"Oh..."
"My good disciple, go wash up and prepare yourself. I will soon bring them to your bed."
