Invincible Snake Emperor-Chapter 50: The Honey Has an Effect on Mom

SWOOSH...!

Tu Xiao’an suddenly returned to the living room. He saw his sister cooking while crying and said, "Sis, I have a way to cure Mom’s illness."

She snapped her head around, staring in astonishment at the Silver White Snake standing proudly before her. "Little Bro, what did you say? You better not be tricking me."

"Sis, hold out your hand!"

Although Tu Xiaoyue was confused, she obediently did as he asked, opening her fair palm. Tu Xiao’an’s Snake Pupils narrowed slightly.

Instantly, ten small, pellet-like objects appeared in her palm. She wasn’t surprised to see them, as she knew her brother had gained some strange abilities after turning into a snake.

"What is this?"

Tu Xiao’an said, "Sis, pick one up and try it."

She looked at the small, crystal-clear pellets, and without any suspicion, she picked one up and placed it in her mouth. It melted instantly, incredibly sweet, leaving her feeling refreshed and invigorated.

Tu Xiaoyue’s eyes immediately lit up. As if in disbelief, she exclaimed, "It’s so sweet! What is this? After eating it, my whole body feels warm, like it’s full of energy."

"Sis, it’s honey!"

"Honey?" Doubt filled Tu Xiaoyue’s eyes. It wasn’t like she’d never had honey before. When was it ever in the form of pellets? And it melted in your mouth and made your whole body feel warm.

’Anyone who didn’t know better would think I just ate some kind of rare treasure.’

Faced with his sister’s skepticism, Tu Xiao’an was actually quite happy. It meant the Killer Bee honey’s effects were truly potent and immediate.

’Maybe it really can cure Mom’s lung cancer.’

"Sis, it really is honey. A special kind of honey. It might be able to cure Mom’s illness."

Tu Xiaoyue stared blankly at the Silver White Snake on the floor. "Really? Is this honey that magical?"

"Sis, whether it is or not, we have to try." As long as there was even a sliver of a chance, Tu Xiao’an wouldn’t give up. "Sis, go get a cup of hot water, put the honey from your hand in it, and then take it to Mom to drink."

In truth, the Killer Bee honey melted in your mouth and didn’t need water at all. But since it was for their mom, he couldn’t be too abrupt. Bringing her a cup of water wouldn’t arouse any suspicion.

"Little Bro, maybe what you’re saying is true." Tu Xiaoyue touched the skin on her face and noticed it was much smoother. ’This honey really is magical, something special.’

That being the case, Tu Xiaoyue didn’t delay. She poured a cup of hot water, put all the honey from her hand into it, and the pellets immediately dissolved, releasing a very pleasant floral fragrance that filled the air.

"Sis, it’s all up to you. Make sure Mom drinks all of it."

This was something only his sister could do. He nervously followed behind Tu Xiaoyue.

Tu Xiaoyue entered Wen Qiu’s room. Seeing her mother staring blankly at a photograph, she said, "Mom, you must be thirsty. Dinner will be a little while longer. Have a drink of water first."

Wen Qiu looked up at her daughter, nodded, and accepted the cup of water without protest.

Just as Wen Qiu was about to drink, she noticed that both Tu Xiaoyue and the Silver White Snake at her feet were filled with tension, as if they were facing some monumental event.

"Yue’Er, what’s wrong with you?"

As Wen Qiu prepared to drink, she sensed her daughter’s strangeness and asked.

Tu Xiaoyue quickly waved her hands. "Mom, I’m fine. Hurry and drink."

"Oh!"

Wen Qiu responded and took a small sip. Instantly, her eyes lit up. "It’s so sweet. Yue’Er, what did you give me to drink?"

"Mom, it’s honey water. It’ll help with your cough and also help you sleep."

Hearing this, Wen Qiu smiled and didn’t ask any more questions. She knew her daughter meant well, but how could her illness possibly be cured by a cup of honey water?

’It’s just wishful thinking.’

After she drank the entire cup of honey water, a hint of a healthy blush actually appeared on Wen Qiu’s sickly complexion. Even she didn’t notice it, but her daughter and a certain snake saw everything.

The girl and the snake were overjoyed.

"Yue’Er, where did you get this honey? I feel so comfortable after drinking it. I even feel a little sleepy."

Tu Xiaoyue said excitedly, "Mom, I haven’t finished cooking anyway, so it’s good for you to take a nap. I’ll call you when it’s ready."

"Then I’ll sleep for a bit. Thank you for your hard work."

Wen Qiu lay down to sleep. Her sickly, pale face gradually grew rosier, and even the wrinkles on her face seemed to smooth out a little.

Tu Xiaoyue and the Silver White Snake didn’t leave the room. Instead, they watched with wide eyes, growing more and more excited.

「A while later.」 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"Little Bro, your honey is really working! Did you notice? Mom hasn’t coughed for ten minutes."

This would have been impossible before. Wen Qiu’s cough was so severe she’d been hacking almost every minute, completely unable to control it.

The Silver White Snake nodded its head like a bobblehead. Tu Xiao’an said excitedly, "This is great, it’s really working! Sis, from now on, give Mom a cup of honey water every morning, noon, and night."

Tu Xiao’an had already accumulated a hundred pellets of honey, all of which the Killer Bee had spat out while eating other bees on the hillside.

He didn’t have to worry about running out of honey. As long as he had the Killer Bee, he would have honey.

After another little while, Wen Qiu seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep, and still no coughs could be heard. Tu Xiaoyue and the Silver White Snake left the room, relieved.

As they headed to the living room, both siblings were in high spirits. It was only then that Tu Xiaoyue noticed the change in her younger brother. She said in surprise, "Little Bro, you seem to have grown quite a bit! Look, your Snake Skin is so shiny it’s almost reflective. You’re getting more and more beautiful. If a snake as pretty as you were sold as a pet, it would definitely be worth a lot of money."

With the possibility of their mom’s recovery on the horizon, Tu Xiaoyue was in the rare mood to joke with her brother.

This House Snake her brother had become was truly one of a kind. He wasn’t ferocious at all, and she just couldn’t get enough of him.

Tu Xiao’an felt a little bashful. He was also quite satisfied with his current appearance. He was practically a supermodel of the Snake Race, so handsome it was unreal.

Snakes were typically fearsome creatures. Limbless, with nothing but a terrifyingly ferocious head. But this House Snake was as if he’d been beautified, his entire body translucent and as smooth as silk.

And so, Tu Xiaoyue picked up the Silver White Snake, stroking him up and down with one hand, her eyes curving into crescents. "You feel amazing. So cool and smooth, you’re so nice to hold."

The cool aura emanating from the Silver White Snake was particularly refreshing to Tu Xiaoyue. ’If I hugged him to sleep at night,’ she thought, ’I wouldn’t even need to turn on a fan.’

This snake came with a built-in cooling function.

"Sis, stop teasing me. Go cook for Mom."

Tu Xiao’an was speechless. He felt like his sister was going to rub his scales right off. He quickly struggled and jumped down.

The honey had a noticeable effect on his mom, which was a good start, but Tu Xiao’an didn’t dare let his guard down. His mom had late-stage lung cancer, an illness that was almost always a death sentence.

While his sister went to cook, Tu Xiao’an, still worried, returned to the bedroom. He coiled up on the floor, watching his mother’s every move as she slept.
