Monster-infested mountains and forests.

The entire dense forest was originally deathly silent, with only the soft rustling of leaves in the wind.

But in the next second, this peaceful space suddenly began to distort and vibrate.

The air seemed to be violently crumpled by an invisible hand, with visible ripples spreading outwards, and a thin, dark crack appeared in the originally stable space.

The gap slowly widened, and a figure stepped out through the void.

The person who arrived was none other than Chu Ge.

After landing, she calmly scanned her surroundings.

The surrounding vegetation was flat and clean, with no signs of being trampled or torn, and no bloodstains or signs of fighting on the ground.

It is clear that no fighting has taken place in this area.

But the silence didn't last long.

From the depths of the distant mountains and forests, a series of earth-shattering roars suddenly resounded.

Boom boom boom—!

It was obvious that a fierce battle was taking place over there.

Chu Ge tilted his head slightly, his eyes locking onto the direction from which the sound came.

The next moment, the figure vanished from the spot.

……

Deeper into the dense forest, the battlefield was extremely brutal.

Six extraordinary individuals are locked in a fierce battle against a massive tiger-like monster.

This tiger is a genuine peak-level B-grade demon beast.

Its fur was dark gold, its muscles were bulging, exuding an explosive sense of power, and a pair of sharp fangs were exposed, reflecting a chilling light in the moonlight. Its fierce and menacing aura was overwhelming.

On the other hand, let's look at the extraordinary individuals.

Of the six, three were at the peak of C-level cultivation.

The two barely reached the initial threshold of B-level.

The only leader, a middle-aged man with a hideous scar on his face, was the only peak B-level expert present.

Although they appear to be at the same level, humans and demonic beasts are inherently worlds apart.

Moreover, this tiger was a well-known ferocious overlord among its peers, with its physical strength, explosive power, and defense all overwhelming other extraordinary beings of the same level.

Under normal circumstances, it would take at least three or four experts of the same realm to reliably defeat a peak B-level tiger.

Their team was a mixed bag, and their overall fighting strength was no match for this fierce tiger.

All six men were injured at this moment.

Two of them were the most seriously injured.

One person was blind in one eye, his face was covered in blood, and his vision was impaired;

The other person was in an even worse state, having lost an arm with a bloody, mangled wound, rendering him unable to fight at all.

The tiger stared intently at the group of dying mermaids before it, its eyes filled with ferocity and impatience, before unleashing a furious roar that shook the mountains and forests.

"roar--!!"

Before the roar had even faded, its massive body suddenly shot out, moving so fast that it left only a blur!

"Get out of the way!!"

Scarface's pupils constricted sharply, and he roared a warning to everyone.

At the same time, earth magic surged wildly in front of him, instantly forming a solid earthen wall that blocked everyone's way.

In the blink of an eye, the tiger had already arrived.

It raised its thick, sharp tiger paw, and with immense force, slammed it down!

boom! !

The seemingly sturdy earthen wall was as fragile as a piece of paper in the face of this absolute power.

With a deafening roar, the entire earthen wall instantly crumbled and disintegrated, turning into countless fine dust particles that scattered across the sky.

Although the earthen wall couldn't withstand the attack, it successfully buffered the tiger's sudden attack, buying everyone precious time to dodge.

"Run! I'll hold it off!"

Scarface gritted his teeth and roared, taking a step forward and pulling everyone behind him.

"No! We'll go together!"

"We brothers will live and die together, we will never abandon anyone! Even if we die, we will die together!"

Even though the remaining men were seriously injured, they showed no sign of retreating. Their eyes were stubborn, and they refused to obey Scarface's orders.

This group of people were all demon hunters who had spent years licking blood from the edge of a knife, and had long since sworn an oath to live and die together.

We share both hardship and happiness.

No one could bring themselves to escape alone and abandon their brothers.

Looking at his brothers who refused to leave no matter what, Scarface felt both gratified and anxious.

I am gratified that my brothers are loyal and devoted, and that our friendship has not been in vain.

What's urgent is the current situation; there's absolutely no room for acting impulsively!

He immediately shouted sternly, "This is not the time for brotherhood! You've all seen the strength of this tiger demon; I can only hold it off for a moment at most! If you don't leave, all six of us will die here today, and none of us will escape!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he continued to persuade in a hurried tone:

"We are all alone, without fathers, mothers, wives, or children. It's fine if we die here; at worst, we'll be heroes again in eighteen years!"

"Boss Ke Ai is different!"

"Boss Aigu went into the underground palace to save us and hasn't come out yet; his fate is unknown."

"He was incredibly kind to all of us, treated us like family, and paid us three times the industry average every month!"

"Boss Ai has a daughter who's still in school. If something really happens to him, how can we face that child? How can we repay his trust and kindness?"

While desperately dodging the tiger's relentless and ferocious attacks, Scarface tried to persuade him with earnest words.

"I'm letting you go not because you're afraid of death! I'm letting you get out alive to fetch reinforcements and do everything you can to save Boss Ai from inside the underground palace!"

These words came from the bottom of my heart.

Everyone present instantly came to their senses.

Yes, their deaths are no loss, but Boss Ai cannot die!

That child cannot lose his father!

The group stopped being stubborn, gritted their teeth, turned around, and scattered in different directions, fleeing wildly.

One of the superhumans ran several meters before turning back and yelling, "Big brother! You have to hold on! We're bringing people back to rescue you right away! Hold on!"

The tiger took in all of this, and its crimson eyes instantly filled with intense gloom and rage.

It guards this mountain forest and protects the underground palace. Its duty is to kill all intruders who break into this place and never allow anyone to leave alive or reveal the secrets of the underground palace!

Seeing that the group of mermaids was about to split up and escape, it instantly abandoned the scarred man in front of it, turned around, and was about to chase after them and kill them all!

"You beast! How dare you touch my brother!"

Scarface's eyes widened in fury, and he let out a thunderous roar.

The remaining earth-elemental magic within his body surged wildly, instantly covering his entire body.

A thick, hard layer of rock armor quickly condensed and took shape, firmly enveloping his body and maximizing his overall defense.

The next moment, he gathered his strength in both hands, and the earth and rocks on the ground churned and surged, and a stone rod more than two meters long and as hard as refined iron suddenly materialized in his hands!

He stomped his feet on the ground, advancing instead of retreating, and leaped forward to block the tiger!

Today, he will fight to the death!

However, the difference in level and state of mind is ultimately an insurmountable gap.

Scarface's physical body wasn't particularly strong to begin with, and he was least skilled at head-on hand-to-hand combat.

In addition, the previous deep dive into the underground palace and the fierce fighting along the way had exhausted his magical power, leaving him with only one-tenth of his original strength, and his condition had plummeted to its lowest point.

Forcing a war now would only make matters worse.

He had absolutely no advantage against the furious tiger that was attacking with all its might.

Boom!

The stone rod collided violently with the tiger's paw!

There was no stalemate, no room for confrontation.

The hard stone rod instantly shattered and broke apart.

A violent and immense force surged through the broken stone rod and into Scarface's body.

He was shaken violently, his blood and qi surged, and his internal organs felt as if they had been shattered. Intense pain swept over his entire body in an instant.

Scarface's face contorted in pain as he clenched his teeth, jerking his numb and throbbing arm, and couldn't help but curse:

"Damn it! If I were in perfect condition right now, even if I couldn't beat you, I definitely wouldn't be in such a sorry state!"

He complained and resentful, but he had no intention of backing down.

Even though he was severely injured and his magic power was depleted, he still stood firmly in front of the tiger, refusing to retreat even a step.

He clenched his fists and, with his last ounce of strength, punched the tiger again and again, while simultaneously manipulating the ground to conjure up a dense array of sharp earth spikes to disrupt the tiger's movements and frantically buy time.

The tiger was utterly enraged by the tiny mermaid before it.

It realized that without killing this person, it would be impossible to escape and hunt down the others.

"roar!!"

A deafening tiger's roar echoed through the mountains and forests!

The tiger stood upright, its ferocious aura instantly surging to its peak.

The tiger's claws, which were already sharp and heavy, became even harder and gleamed with a chilling light, carrying a terrifying power capable of destroying the world.

It activated its battle mode, intending to eliminate the troublesome ants at all costs.

The situation has completely deteriorated.

Scarface, who was already at a significant disadvantage, suddenly found his pressure doubled.

All his attacks seemed weak and powerless in the face of the enraged tiger.

Every punch, every spike of earth that tried to block, was easily torn apart by the tiger.

His prized rock armor proved utterly vulnerable.

It couldn't even withstand three moves before it shattered into countless stone fragments!

next moment.

The tiger unleashed a ferocious slash with its claws!

boom! !

A dull, loud bang exploded.

Scarface was sent flying backward as if he had been hit by a high-speed boulder!

He tumbled dozens of times in the air before finally crashing into a thick, ancient tree.

The tree trunk trembled violently, and leaves flew everywhere.

Scarface crashed heavily to the ground, paralyzed, and could no longer get up.

At this moment, all his meridians were shattered, his bones were broken in many places, and he was in excruciating pain all over his body, with every inch of his skin and flesh feeling like it was being torn apart.

He didn't even have the strength to prop himself up and sit up.

Vision gradually blurred, and physical strength, magic power, and vitality were rapidly slipping away.

He struggled to lift his eyes, gazing at the bright moon hanging high in the night sky, as he heard heavy footsteps approaching.

The tiger's massive body slowly approached, and the ground trembled with each step it took.

Heavy, hot breath, carrying a strong fishy smell, slowly sprayed onto his face.

The shadow of death loomed over him.

Scarface already knew in his heart that he was doomed today.

He slowly closed his eyes, with only a trace of regret and expectation left in his heart.

"Brothers... they should have escaped safely by now..."

At this very moment when he was already in despair.

A dull thud came from beside me.

Immediately afterwards, a clear, cool female voice softly sounded in his ear:

"Hello, do you know where Aigu is?"

Scarface suddenly opened his eyes.

Moonlight streamed down from behind the girl, and against the light, he couldn't make out her features.

All that could be seen was a plain white robe covering her body, and her hair was as white as snow, shimmering with a hazy silver light under the moonlight, as if woven from silver threads.

His gaze moved downwards, and what he saw made his brain freeze.

The B-level peak tiger that had almost killed him was now lying on all fours.

The white-haired girl stood steadily on its back!

The massive tiger's body was pressed firmly against the ground, unable to move an inch!

The tiger's eyes were wide open, its mouth agape, and it kept letting out frustrated and angry growls. It desperately clawed at the soil with its limbs and struggled wildly, but the girl on its back was like a mountain of immense weight. No matter how hard it tried, it could not move an inch!

"Don't argue."

Chu Ge glanced down at the struggling tiger at his feet and slightly increased the pressure on his feet.

With just this one movement, the ferocious tiger, which had been so fierce just moments before, instantly froze!

All anger vanished instantly.

The tiger's bristling fur went limp and it lay obediently on the ground, not daring to even breathe, completely surrendering.

Witnessing this utterly absurd scene, Scarface's worldview, built up over many years, crumbled and shattered at that moment.

The girl in front of him looked to be no more than eighteen or nineteen years old, with a slender figure and no intimidating presence.

But the strength she displayed was so terrifying that he couldn't see through it at all!

With just a word and a touch of force, a peak B-rank monster could be completely subdued.

This is definitely not an ordinary superhuman!

It's highly likely that he's a reclusive old monster who has disguised himself and entered the world!

Further speculation suggests that the other party might even be faking their gender, disguising themselves as a cute young girl to make others underestimate them!

After a few seconds of stunned silence, Scarface regained his senses. He forced himself to speak, his body battered and bruised:

"S-Senior! Are you here to rescue Boss Ai? Boss Ai is still deep inside the underground palace!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a sweet taste in his throat, and a mouthful of scalding blood gushed out.

His breathing grew weaker and weaker, bloody bubbles kept rising from his throat, he was on the verge of death and could no longer utter a single word.

Looking at the scarred man on the verge of death, Chu Ge remained calm and raised his hand to activate his time magic.

The gentle power of time slowly enveloped the opponent's body, reversing the injuries and restoring their state.

In a short time, Scarface's serious injuries were completely healed, and his body returned to its peak condition.

After the healing was complete, Chu Ge sensed the depleted magic power within his body and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Sure enough, the stronger the effect, the more terrifying the magic consumption.

The magic power consumed by that healing attack was enough for her to set off the Buddha's Wrath Lotus like firecrackers.

the other side.

Scarface stood up, looked himself up and down at his unharmed body, his face full of disbelief.

At that moment, he felt nothing but awe.

I seriously underestimated the strength of the white-haired girl in front of me!

Without the slightest hesitation, Scarface bowed deeply, his posture extremely respectful, and solemnly saluted:

"Thank you so much for saving my life, senior! Please, senior, help Boss Ai! I will do whatever it takes to pay you!"

As soon as he said it, he immediately felt that the word "money" was too vulgar. For such a powerful and all-powerful expert, it was not worth mentioning at all, and even somewhat offensive.

He immediately changed his tune:

"As long as you can rescue Boss Ai safely, from this day forward, I, Scarface, am willing to serve you like a slave, obeying your every command without the slightest disobedience!"

Scarface's expression was sincere, without a trace of falsehood.

His sincerity was not only to repay Aigu's kindness, but also to express his genuine gratitude to Chu Ge.

Chu Ge not only saved him from the brink of death, but also indirectly saved all the brothers who escaped, thus saving their lives.

"No need for such formalities."

Chu Ge said calmly, "Take me to the entrance of the underground palace."

"Yes! This way, please, senior!"

Scarface quickly agreed and immediately turned around to lead the way, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.

Chu Ge gently lifted his foot and landed steadily on the tiger's back.

She glanced down at the docile tiger and casually said, "You can leave now."

After saying that, she ignored him and followed the scarred man ahead.

To her surprise, the tiger did not flee at all. Instead, it silently got up and obediently followed behind her, keeping a safe distance.

Chu Ge raised an eyebrow slightly, neither investigating nor paying attention.

I just assumed the little tiger was going home on its way and was following along.

The scarred man in front naturally noticed the tiger following behind him. He was both flustered and confused, but dared not ask any questions. He could only suppress his doubts and hurry on his way.

In order to reach the underground palace as quickly as possible and rescue Aigu, he pushed his speed to the limit.

A mermaid, a young girl, and a tiger.

The three sped through the dense forest and soon arrived at the hidden entrance to the underground palace.

"Senior, this is the place."

Scarface strode forward and reached out to push aside the layers of dense, overgrown thatch.

A hidden entrance to a stone cave suddenly appeared before our eyes.

The cave entrance is spacious, several feet wide, enough for even a large tiger to easily squeeze in.

This place is extremely hidden, completely covered by weeds and vines. If no one leads the way, even if an ordinary person passes by hundreds or thousands of times, they would never find the entrance to this underground palace.

"I'll go in by myself from here on out," Chu Ge said softly, looking at the scarred man.

Scarface knew his strength was weak and that going in would only be a burden to Chu Ge, so he didn't try to be brave. Instead, he gave Chu Ge a worried look and gave him some instructions:

"Senior, please be careful! Several powerful demonic beasts roam deep within the underground palace; it's extremely dangerous! You must not be careless!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the tiger that had been obediently following him suddenly turned around and glared at him fiercely, as if it was annoyed that he had spoken out of turn.

Immediately afterwards, the mighty tiger that once dominated the mountains and forests slowly walked in, head down and tail drooping, and obediently slipped into the cave, silently following behind Chu Ge.

Scarface stared at this outrageous scene, his lips twitching violently, frantically trying to console himself:

It's alright, it's alright. With the senior here, even the fiercest tiger can't cause any trouble.

……

Chu Ge stepped into the stone cave and followed the winding stone steps downwards, continuing deeper into the underground palace.

The cave was pitch black, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, and a cold, damp atmosphere filled the air.

With a light tap of his fingertips, Chu Ge conjured a bright, blazing flame that floated in front of him, illuminating his path and dispelling the boundless darkness.

The deeper you go, the more open and spacious the interior of the underground palace becomes.

Occasionally, swarms of dark shadows would flit overhead; these were bats that lived in the underground palace, disturbed by strangers, flying around erratically.

Along the way, there were mottled, dried bloodstains everywhere on the ground.

Judging from how dry the bloodstains are, they have been there for some time.

As they continued deeper into the area, corpses began to appear on the ground.

One, two, three...

Thirteen corpses lay on the cold ground.

Judging from their clothing and attire, which are exactly the same as those of the scarred man outside, they are clearly demon hunters under Aigu's command.

Chu Ge had a sudden thought and tried to activate the time reversal magic to resurrect these dead people.

She could also take this opportunity to test whether her current time magic could reverse life and death.

However, the test results for the young girl, A-Ge, were not ideal.

These people have been dead for too long, exceeding the limit of her current level of ability to rewind and reverse time.

To revive them, her strength must break through another major level and advance to the rank of Grand Magister.

Chu Ge decided to give up and continue deeper into the underground palace.

The tiger stayed a short distance behind her, maintaining a safe distance, and was docile and obedient.

They ventured a full kilometer deeper, when they heard the sounds of fierce fighting and the roars of monsters ahead.

Chu Ge focused his senses and instantly detected a familiar aura.

It's Aigu!

In the next instant, she used the power of space to cross a hundred meters in a flash and arrived directly at the core of the battlefield.

The current battle situation is extremely fierce.

Covered in blood, Aigu was fighting three terrifyingly ferocious beasts single-handedly.

Giant black bats, pitch-black poisonous spiders, and massive snake demons.

The three-headed monster was ferocious and terrifying in appearance. It was pitch black all over, covered with strange blood-red patterns, and its eyes were all scarlet and bloodthirsty, exuding a terrifying aura.

The most terrifying thing is that all three of these demonic beasts are at the peak of the A-level cultivation.

His level was completely equal to Aigu's.

Aigu himself is extremely powerful and has few rivals among those in the same realm.

One person alone can fight three monsters of the same level, which inevitably makes it difficult to overcome the challenge.

At this moment, he was covered in wounds, his clothes were tattered, and he was already on the verge of exhaustion.

"The Song of Chu?!"

Aigu was shocked to see the white-haired girl appear out of nowhere.

He instantly realized that his men outside must have successfully broken through and escaped, which was why they had asked Chu Ge for help.

While he was pleasantly surprised, he was also filled with worry.

"Chu Ge, watch out!"

Aigu hurriedly warned, "These three demonic beasts are all highly venomous! A bite from one will surely kill you!"

"My team originally had an A-level expert who was ambushed and bitten by this spider. Not long after, his flesh melted away and turned into a pool of black blood."

As they were talking, Aigu planned to forcefully step forward to assist Chu Ge in the battle and share the burden with her.

But Chu Ge's voice rang out at just the right moment:

"It's alright, leave it to me."

His tone was calm, yet it carried an unwavering certainty.

Seeing this, Aigu stopped rushing forward and chose to trust Chu Ge's strength.

However, he dared not relax his magical power in the slightest, always maintaining a state of readiness to protect himself while being ready to provide support at any time.

In the center of the battlefield.

Chu Ge faced the three peak-level A-grade venomous monsters head-on, without the slightest fear in his eyes, but rather a faint curiosity.

Aigu repeatedly emphasized that these three monsters were extremely poisonous.

This piqued her interest.

She silently compared them in her mind and murmured to herself:

"Then let's see which is more potent, your innate poison or potassium cyanide."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Ge's magical power spread out.

She neither dodged nor flinched, but instead faced the largest, dark snake that was closest to her!

When the giant snake saw that Chu Ge was so arrogant and had come to its doorstep, its ferocity surged!

The scarlet snake opened its mouth wide, revealing sharp fangs, and fiercely bit down towards Chu Ge's shoulder!

"Get out of the way!!"

Aigu's pupils shrank drastically, and he immediately attacked.

With a wave of his hand, countless wind blades materialized, slashing straight at the snake's head with a sharp, piercing sound!

But the black spider beside him wouldn't give him a chance to rescue.

The jet-black, viscous spider silk instantly gushed out from its abdomen, rapidly intertwining and weaving into a huge black spider web that stretched across the air!

Aigu's wind blades struck the spider web repeatedly, cutting cracks in it, and it looked like it was about to break free.

But the next second, a second layer of thick spider web instantly overlapped and covered the area, completely blocking all attacks!

All the wind blades were blocked and neutralized!

"hateful!"

Aigu was filled with anxiety, wanting to help but powerless to break through the barriers.

The black bats beside them were already poised to strike, watching the battlefield intently, ready to launch a sneak attack at any moment.

In addition, his own magic power has been greatly depleted, and he is no longer at his peak combat strength, so he is simply unable to spare any attention.

He stared at Chu Ge's figure, his heart filled with endless unease and worry.

Everyone thought that with that venomous fang, Chu Ge would be seriously injured or even killed.

But the next moment, a bizarre scene unfolded.

Click—!

A crisp cracking sound rang out.

The anticipated scenes of flesh being torn apart and poison entering the body did not occur at all.

The giant snake bit down hard on Chu Ge's shoulder, but its incredibly sharp fangs failed to pierce her skin even slightly.

The girl's incredibly tough flesh directly snapped off its venomous fangs.

Broken fang fragments lay scattered on the ground.

hiss--!!

The giant snake, in pain, hissed wildly, its scarlet pupils filled with resentment and disbelief.

If brute force doesn't work, then change your tactics!

With its fangs rendered ineffective, the giant snake instantly changed its attack strategy.

This giant snake, over ten meters long, resembled a massive black rope, frantically coiling and wrapping around Chu Ge's body.

It intended to use its terrifying strangulation force to strangle the strangely shaped girl in front of it!

One lap, two laps, three laps...

The dark, cold snake's body tightened layer by layer, tightly coiling around Chu Ge's slender body, leaving no gaps.

The snake's body continuously applies pressure, contracts, and locks itself in place.

The strangulation force is becoming increasingly terrifying, enough to deform steel and crush rocks!

Aigu, who was watching the battle from a distance, felt his heart leap into his throat.

His whole body was ice cold.

Even though he knew Chu Ge was extremely strong, being locked up by the giant snake at this moment still filled him with extreme fear.

The physical crushing power of a peak-level A-grade monster is terrifying!

Even a powerful expert of the same realm would have their bones shattered and suffocate to death instantly if entangled like this!

Will Chu Ge get into trouble?

Once this thought arose, it frantically occupied Aigu's mind.

If Chu Ge were to die saving me...

How should he face Arya?

It took my daughter a lot of effort to resolve her inner conflict and accept herself again.

If she were to witness firsthand the death of the older sister she respected and relied on, who had saved her life...

Arya will hate herself to death...and fall into despair again...and break down in tears.

Absolutely not!

This must never be allowed to happen!

Aigu's eyes instantly turned bloodshot, and his eyes became bloodshot.

Endless regret, anxiety, guilt, and lingering fear completely overwhelmed his reason.

next second.

The cultivation shackles that had been dormant within him for so long shattered with a crash!

Click.

The sound of an invisible barrier crumbling echoed clearly in the empty underground palace.

The realm that had stagnated for many years was broken through at this moment!

A terrifying aura, far exceeding anything seen before, suddenly erupted and swept across the entire underground palace.

S-rank!

Aigu has broken through to become an S-class superhuman!

The sudden surge in cultivation level and the terrifying pressure instantly suppressed the entire area.

The black spider, not far away, instantly changed its expression and instinctively retreated rapidly, trying to escape.

Aigu, capable of breaking through its limitations and experiencing a surge in combat power, would not give it the slightest chance!

His eyes were fixed on the fleeing spider, and in the blink of an eye, a terrifying wind blade, condensed to the extreme, pierced through the air!

Swish-!

The wind blades are extremely fast, fierce, and domineering.

Knowing there was no way to escape, the spider frantically sprayed out all its silk, forming an unprecedentedly thick and massive web to desperately defend itself.

It thought that with its strongest defense, it could at least withstand some damage.

It can happen in the next second.

The sturdy spider web was instantly shredded by the wind blade!

The fierce wind swept through the spider's massive body in two!

puff!

The thick, black demon blood sprayed wildly.

The spider's body split in two, crashing to the ground, losing all life, and dying on the spot.

Witnessing its companion being instantly killed, the black bat hovering in mid-air was terrified.

It dared not linger any longer, disregarding its companion, the giant snake beneath it, turned and flapped its wings, fleeing madly toward the deepest part of the underground palace, wanting only to escape this terrifying battlefield!

Aigu had no intention of chasing the fleeing bats.

All his attention was focused on the tightly coiled snake body!

Save people!

Save Chu Ge first!

But just as he was about to sever the snake's body, an extremely bizarre scene came into view.

The giant snake, which had been frantically strangling and holding an absolute advantage, suddenly stiffened.

Its expression instantly changed from fierce and triumphant to pain, despair, and convulsions.

next moment.

Click!

A dull, tearing sound!

The snake's tough and powerful body was torn straight in half!

The enormous snake's body slumped limply to the sides and slowly spread out.

The white-haired girl stood unharmed in the same spot.

Her clothes were neat, her hair was in perfect condition, and there wasn't a single scratch.

"Are you alright?" Aigu rushed forward and asked immediately.

"fine."

Chu Ge shook his head slightly and casually tossed aside the two severed sections of the snake's body.

She explained:

"I was just curious and wanted to test how potent the venom in its mouth was, so I let it bite me."

"Who knew its fangs were so fragile? They snapped at the slightest touch, not even breaking my skin."

The girl sighed softly, a hint of regret in her voice:

"When the poison injection failed, it started to entangle me. So I simply stopped moving, wanting to see if its strangulation pressure could be used to train my body and see if I could push my body to its limits."

"The result was still too weak, a waste of effort, and had no effect at all."

After hearing these words, Aigu, filled with lingering fear, froze on the spot.

His brows furrowed deeply, as if some inhuman thing was frantically attacking his nerves, causing his brain to shut down.

Aigu heard every single word clearly.

But when they're put together, he simply can't understand them! How are these words arranged into a sentence?

When others encounter highly venomous monsters, they desperately try to dodge and survive, facing a near-certain death.

This guy is something else!

Actively approach to get bitten, actively get entangled by snakes, and use A-level peak monsters to temper your body.

...and they even complained that the other party was too weak and useless!

At this moment, Aigu's gaze towards Chu Ge completely changed.

Three parts confusion, three parts shock, and four parts doubt.

He couldn't help but have wild doubts in his mind:

Is this really the gentle, kind, considerate, and tender Chu Ge who always took care of Arya?

Could it be that it has been possessed by some terrifying being?

The thought lingered in his mind for a long time, but he eventually forced it down.

That's it.

I guess it's because I'm getting old and can't keep up with the thinking and ways of doing things that young people do.

He couldn't help but sigh softly, "I'm getting old..."

Aigu suddenly remembered that his business partner had complained to him that his child often used a bunch of strange internet slang in his speech.

What biological father, escaping one's original family, breaking down, 666, bor cried in desperation...

He couldn't understand each time, but he could only smile and nod, pretending to understand, for fear of being disliked by the child for being old-fashioned and pedantic.

It seems that the world of young people is indeed always unpredictable.
