Tang Yue casually leaned forward and lifted the chin of her father, the King, with her long nail. "I am sorry to disappoint you, father. Ha Ha Ha Ha!" Her evil laughter rang loudly amidst the deafening ominous silence.
"I know things would probably work out better for you if I were the same helpless person you once knew. As you can see, that is not true. Tsk. Tsk. What a pity. That too, you guys had such a beautiful story concocted about me."
The king\'s eyes narrowed at Tang Yue\'s words, his anger and frustration clear on his face. "You think you can just waltz in here and take over, do you?" he spat out. "You have no idea what you\'re dealing with. You may have grown stronger, but I am still the king, and I will not be challenged by my own daughter."
Tang Yue smirked, her confidence unwavering. "You may be the king, father, but your reign is coming to an end. Unfortunately, I just do not have the time to keep talking. Unlike you, my time is valuable, and I would rather spend it with people I love."
Without giving any other explanation, Tang Yue\'s hand shot forward the next second. She clutched the man\'s stomach, and boom!
Immediately, the snake buckled forward and coughed up blood. His eyes became horrified as he could sense that something was wrong. It took him a second, but he soon realized that he was…
"That\'s right, my dear dad. You are now a cripple. Just like me."
The king\'s face turned pale as he realized what had happened. He tried to stand up, but his body wouldn\'t listen to him. He looked at Tang Yue with a mix of fear and anger. "What have you done?" he gasped out.
Tang Yue crouched down next to him. "Don\'t worry, father," she said, her voice dripping with mock concern. "I haven\'t killed you. Yet. But I have made sure that you will never be able to recover again."
The king\'s eyes widened in shock and horror. He had never imagined that his own daughter would do something like this to him. "Why? Why would you do this to me? I raised you!" he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.
Tang Yue stood up and looked down at her father with a cold, hard expression. "Because you deserve it, father," she said simply. "Sure, you raised me, but then you decided to sacrifice me. I am just repaying the favour."
"Well… that is not completely true. I no longer care about the past. But even if I wasn\'t interested in petty revenge, our kingdom needs this."
"With someone like you as the King, we would never get anywhere. Just like how you sacrificed me for the good of the Kingdom, I am doing the same. All for the betterment of our people."
Before Tang Yue finished speaking, her figure already made a move. In the blink of an eye, several shrieks echoed in the silence of the night. What happened to the King happened to the rest of the royal family as well.
One by one, several snakes fell to the ground with a thud, shrivelling and curling in unbelievable pain. Every single one of their mana cores was destroyed, and the entire group became cripples.
This was a fate far worse than death.
Naturally, Tang Yue was not a lunatic, and there were still some people in the snake clan left unharmed. These were the elders whom she knew to be kind and just and genuinely cared for the well-being of the people.
However, at the moment, these elders were terrified of her. Her method was simply too brutal and unforgiving.
"You do not have to worry. I have not gone mad." Tang Yue reassured the elders, who were clearly afraid of her.
"I am doing this for the good of the snake clan. The old leadership was corrupt and oppressive, and they only cared about their own interests. I have merely removed them from power so that we can have a better future."
Silence followed her words when one of the elders finally opened his mouth to ask, "Your highness then-"
Tang Yue immediately interrupted him. "Don\'t misunderstand me. I do have any intentions to stay back here and rule the Kingdom. You five will be my council, and here afterwards, I give you the power to govern our clan."
All the serpentine clan elders blankly stared. They had not expected this. They were not sure yet what was happening, but at the moment, they could only instinctively nod and bow to this powerful woman.
Who gave her the right to issue all of these commands? On whose orders was she so confident? What was the extent of her powers? These were simply none of their concerns. They could only respectfully accept whatever was told.
This was the rule of the world. Only strong could speak.
In a single night, the entire serpentine clan was thrown into a state of chaos. But at the same time, everything was easily resolved by dawn.
This in itself showed the effectiveness of Tang Yue\'s actions. The five elders smoothened everything out and took care of everything in the shortest possible time.
Though they mainly did this out of fear, the result was nevertheless satisfactory.
Tang Yue lingered around the clan settlement until the morning, after which she left things in the hands of the elders and the other snakes she had brought along with her.
"You guys stay here for now." She also ordered the harpy and wolves to stay back. Though the group was clearly not happy with this, she only laughed it off.
The place she was going to next would be even more chaotic. Unlike the snakes, the elves had far more tricks up their sleeves. So it was better that she paid them a visit first.
Leaving the clan matters with the group, Tang Yue finally left for the familiar place, the place where she had run away from.
