Chapter 171: To Meet with Danger (5)
The serpent was so pissed that the plant it had been guarding for so long had disappeared and it waited for so long so the two thieves could give the plant back, but they seemed to be in no interest in returning it.
The serpent charged at Murong Qingyan and Chen Wenwen with a hiss, the two girls dodged the first attack and when the turned around, their hearts skipped a beat when they saw the ground they just stood on was now reduced to a giant hole.
Murong Qingyan got more scared seeing what the serpent was capable of by one slight attack, if they hadn’t dodged in time just now they would become meat paste now.
Chen Wenwen had also withdrew her weapon from her Interspatial Ring, together with Murong Qingyan, they attacked on the serpent’s tail, in the hope that the serpent would be too clumsy to turn back and protect its tail due to its size.
But to their surprise, the serpent was very agile for its size and the serpent’s skin was impossible to pierce.
The serpent kept wagging its tail to hurt Murong Qingyan and Chen Wenwen, Murong Qingyan dodged using Dark Power and she noticed the serpent’s skin was too hard to pierce, so she used Earth Ore on her sword, finally she could do some damage to the serpent.
But the harm was almost nothing compared to its size, Murong Qingyan doubted whether the serpent would feel the pain caused by wounds of that size.
How she wished she could hit where it hurt, but she couldn’t approach the serpent’s body, all she could do was to dodging here and there by its tail.
Chen Wenwen was less poised when she dodged the serpent’s attack, she was less agile and resourceful than Murong Qingyan, so she already full of small wounds on her arms, the new outfit she just changed was now in rags as well.
Chen Wenwen was so mad that a Demonic Beast was attacking her like this, growing up there were countless people protecting her, never would she need to deal with a Demonic Beast. And she was even more mad when she noticed how graceful Murong Qingyan was when she dodged from the serpent’s attack.
Murong Qingyan on the other hand had no time and energy to pay any attention to how graceful or how dispirited Chen Wenwen was, stalling some time was all she had in mind.
The serpent was getting impatient as it couldn’t finish this battle as soon as it had expected, it opened its bloody mouth and saliva dripped on the ground, to the girls’ surprise, the leaves and grass on the ground turned black as the serpent’s saliva dropped on them.
Murong Qingyan cast a warning glimpse at Chen Wenwen, the message it conveyed was ‘watch out, you see what has become of the grass on the ground, definitely watch out and try to avoid its head.’
To make it worse, now the serpent started to feel the pain from its tail, it started to get more and more agitated. The two girls not only had stolen its plants, but also they had hurt its tail! The serpent wanted to finish this battle as soon as possible.
Chen Wenwen was getting weak and weaker, she couldn’t even wield her sword any more. But right at that moment, the serpent charged at her with its mouth wide open, it looked like the serpent was about to spit some saliva on Chen Wenwen, Chen Wenwen screamed subconsciously.
Murong Qingyan caught Chen Wenwen’s belt with the head of her sword, together they stepped a few steps back and Chen Wenwen made a narrow escape.
Murong Qingyan didn’t like Chen Wenwen, it was all because of her greed that they needed to fight this serpent, Chen Wenwen had only herself to blame if anything shall happen to her, but Murong Qingyan still had no heart to watch her die.
Chen Wenwen wasn’t grateful for Murong Qingyan at all, she blamed Murong Qingyan for not saving her earlier instead.
The serpent didn’t stop attacking them, it made another round of attack charging at Chen Wenwen, Chen Wenwen grabbed Murong Qingyan who was standing next to her and used her as a shield!
It happened so fast, Murong Qingyan didn’t realize Chen Wenwen was biting the hand that literally had just fed her until it was too late, and next second she felt splitting pain on her stomach.
To return to Xiao Bai who had telepathy with Murong Qingyan.
Xiao Bai suddenly opened its eyes and bit Huangfu Jue’s sleeve, with that it charged at the river.
Huangfu Jue opened his eyes and followed Xiao Bai, he knew something must be happening to Murong Qingyan, something terrible!
Chen Wenwen, Si Huang and Butler Chen also opened their eyes on hearing Huangfu Jue’s footsteps, they rose to their feet and followed Huangfu Jue when they saw he was charging at the direction of the river.
What met Xiao Bai and Huangfu Jue’s eyes was the scene where Chen Wenwen used Murong Qingyan as a human shield. Murong Qingyan’s stomach was attacked by the serpent’s tail, blood spurt all over, she looked like a rag doll that was soaked in blood.
Xiao Bai shrieked as it saw what happened to its master.
