After the True Heiress Travels Back-Chapter 970: If You Don’t Escape Now, It Will Be Too Late
"No—"
Seeing the snake tail about to overlap, pressing Cheng Lingdang trapped in the middle of the snake body into minced meat.
Even though Shen Huan knew it was too late to rush over, he still couldn’t help but pounce in that direction.
"Cheng Lingdang, hang in there!"
As he shouted desperately, he launched a frantic long-range attack on the giant python.
Although the giant python ignored Shen Huan’s attack, it...
When people are disturbed by the buzzing of tiny mosquitoes in their ears, don’t they get annoyed?
The giant python clearly didn’t care about Cheng Lingdang, and after being distracted by Shen Huan, it released its tail that had trapped Cheng Lingdang and swung toward Shen Huan.
The huge tail smashed in Shen Huan’s direction, casting a shadow over his head.
Shen Huan wanted to dodge, but the giant python was too fast.
No chance to escape, he stood there dazed and closed his eyes in despair.
One second.
Two seconds.
The expected pain did not arrive on schedule.
He instinctively opened his eyes, but before he could see clearly, he felt a tightness around his waist and realized he was being pulled into the sky by someone.
"Are you stupid, don’t you know how to dodge?"
In his ear was Shi Yaoguang’s helpless voice.
Shen Huan stiffly turned his head to look, and after confirming he wasn’t mistaken, tears welled up in his eyes instantly.
"Sect Master..."
Shi Yaoguang placed him on the ground and sighed, "Be more careful next time."
With that said, she turned and flew towards the giant python.
Quan Jinbei was confronting the giant python at the moment.
This giant python, no one knows its origin, but under Quan Jinbei’s special spiritual power attack, it remains intact.
"How is it?"
Shi Yaoguang stood shoulder to shoulder with Quan Jinbei, asking about his findings.
Quan Jinbei’s expression was solemn, "This giant python might have gained sentience."
"This..."
Shi Yaoguang was about to say something about how after the founding of the nation, sentience is forbidden, when they heard the giant python on the opposite side speak in human language.
"You want to kill me?"
Upon hearing this, Shi Yaoguang and Quan Jinbei were prepared and not too surprised.
Cheng Lingdang and the others couldn’t help but widen their eyes in shock.
They didn’t expect this creature to gain sentience.
This is a completely different level, how can they fight!
The giant python’s terrifying vertical pupils were fixed on Shi Yaoguang and Quan Jinbei.
Its gaze stayed on them for a moment, finally settling on Shi Yaoguang.
"Are you the cultivator from the other world?"
Shi Yaoguang was puzzled, "Cultivator from the other world?"
The giant python lowered its head to look at Shi Yaoguang, and there was a hint of smugness in its cold vertical pupils. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
"The scent on you is quite lovely."
As the giant python spoke, it moved its massive head close to Shi Yaoguang, its snake tongue flicking out, with a chilling hiss.
"Are you hallucinating?" Shi Yaoguang retorted directly.
She had once experienced life as a cold-blooded animal during a task.
Emmm...
She had turned into a snake.
Well, it wasn’t without its benefits; at least, with diligent cultivation, she could transform into a human.
It was because of this experience that Shi Yaoguang had some understanding of snakes.
She was indifferent to the python’s claim about her fragrance.
She didn’t believe she had any particular scent.
Even if there was a scent, it couldn’t be anything pleasant.
This, Shi Yaoguang was quite certain of.
However, obviously, the giant python was unwilling to admit it had olfactory issues.
It firmly stood by its belief that Shi Yaoguang was fragrant.
Of course, not in the delectable sense.
This was a predator’s compliment to its prey.
Precisely.
It regarded Shi Yaoguang as food.
"Being my first meal upon awakening is your privilege." the giant python said.
Shi Yaoguang raised an eyebrow, "My king?"
Listening to the giant python earlier, she had thought this creature was a product of Shang Minghao’s modern era.
But a "my king" added some uncertainty.
The giant python was quite smug, "I am from the ancient Demon Clan. My primal spirit fell into an unexpected slumber, and my body remained intact underground. Now that I have awakened, you are my finest meal."
Hearing the giant python’s words, Shi Yaoguang’s mouth twitched.
"Are you saying, letting you eat me offers me benefits?"
Clearly, this was the giant python’s belief, as it proudly declared, "Being my meal is your honor."
"The man beside you is your companion, right? I am exceptionally merciful and won’t separate you two. Rest assured, I’ll ensure you’re always together."
Seeing the python’s smug expression, Shi Yaoguang smirked, "You’re overly confident."
The python flicked its tongue, appearing somewhat puzzled in its cold vertical pupils.
Not understanding why Shi Yaoguang said that.
Shi Yaoguang’s eyes were icy, "I won’t become your food."
"Whether you wish to or not isn’t your decision."
The python didn’t regard Shi Yaoguang at all.
In its view, Shi Yaoguang was merely a human.
A mere human, insignificant in its eyes.
Seeing the python’s attitude, Shi Yaoguang chuckled lightly.
"Whether I say yes or no, that depends on the outcome."
Shi Yaoguang and the python exchanged words as if they were evenly matched.
This frightened Wo Hezhe.
Wo Hezhe didn’t dare run to Shi Yaoguang’s side, fearing the giant python would notice him. So he seized the opportunity to transform into black smoke, saying to Quan Jinbei, "Bro, this entity has a significant background. Get the big shots; let’s escape!"
There was no change in Quan Jinbei’s facial expression when he used his divine sense to communicate with Wo Hezhe.
"What’s its background?"
Wo Hezhe was anxious.
He wanted to say, at a time when life was at stake, couldn’t they stop asking irrelevant things?
But...
He knew if he couldn’t offer a reasonable explanation, they wouldn’t heed his advice to leave.
With that in mind, he gritted his teeth and shared what he knew, "This giant python is a rival of the Evil Demon Clan."
Quan Jinbei was perplexed, "Rival?"
The Evil Demons and the Demon Clan treat Earth as a dumping ground, don’t they?
Coming here one after another to cause trouble.
Wo Hezhe didn’t mind being treated like trash right now.
He just wanted to escape quickly.
Unfortunately...
Quan Jinbei seemed to be unafraid of losing his life.
This only increased Wo Hezhe’s anxiety.
"Bro, old brother! Can’t you listen to me just once?"
Quan Jinbei remained unmoved.
But it wasn’t true that he did nothing; he relayed everything Wo Hezhe told him to Shi Yaoguang.
Once he confirmed Shi Yaoguang could handle the giant python, he showed no reaction.
To Wo Hezhe, it appeared as if Quan Jinbei had lost it.
Realizing staying might be fatal, Wo Hezhe went all out, dashed to Shi Yaoguang, and said, "Boss, we should escape quickly! It’ll be too late soon!"
