On the moving train, a man covered in eerie tattooed totems stared at you through a glass window, his eyes wide open, his mouth slit unnaturally to the back of his head.
The scene was bizarre beyond words.
A regular person seeing this would undoubtedly wake up from sleep terrified.
Therefore, Zhou Shiyu, who had just started feeling sleepy, was jolted awake and was about to scream.
Xu Shu covered his sister’s mouth, preventing her from screaming, and pushed her towards the aisle across.
They were about to pass Xinglong Manor, and judging by this man’s appearance, similar to a performance artist, it was almost certain where he ca from.
He must be one of those so-called "Snake Cultivators" from Xinglong Manor!
So... could this person be Yan Xiong?
Or another "Snake Servant" of Yan Xiong?
But, having already left Jin Baoshan, how could they track him...
Upon this thought, Xu Shu’s gaze fell on his waist, and realizing sothing, he said in a low voice, "So you’ve been secretly sending ssages?"
The previously compliant and dormant Snake Woman imdiately stopped acting.
"Despicable, lecherous human, go to hell like that fat dead man!"
She stretched out her grueso head and bit at Xu Shu’s head, her eyes filled with the pleasure of revenge.
Xu Shu frowned imdiately, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and his voice grew fierce, "Such a nuisance!"
He had already decided not to hold them accountable, yet they dared to persistently chase after him;
What was worse, he had allowed the Snake Woman to seek her revenge first, yet she still knew no restraint?
Utterly outrageous!
Indeed, a snake is a snake, the story of the farr and the snake did not deceive him!
Xu Shu was greatly annoyed and felt sowhat headaches.
The headaches weren’t due to fear of them, but because his family was nearby, which restricted his actions.
The enemy’s strength was unknown, but the Snake Woman, having seen his capabilities, daring to co for revenge, must an she was not weak.
If it had been a normal situation with him traveling alone, Xu Shu would not have feared him.
But although he was not afraid, his family of three were all ordinary humans; these snake monsters could spit poison, and just one touch could be fatal, uncertain if Alice could cure the snake venom on ti.
Even if she could, Xu Shu did not want to take that risk.
With family by his side, every move was hindered; during a fight, weapons do not have eyes, what if he accidentally hurt his adoptive parents or left a scar on his sister’s face? Who could predict that?
—Others might not, but Xu Shu could.
He had a way to foresee it!
Thus, at the very first mont the Snake Woman moved her mouth, Xu Shu did not hesitate to choose the safest thod—
"Tai Chu Scroll, activate!"
He chose the [Expedition Mode], foresaw the future, simulated what was to co.
In a swoosh, everything around him, including ti, seed to montarily freeze.
A haze enveloped the world, turning it into a carousel of lights and shadows:
[Checking current status...]
[Check complete.]
[Your situation is dire! You and your family are on a train far from any safe zone, targeted by a powerful and terrifying enemy!]
[His na is Yan Xiong, from the local gang Xinglong Manor, a Second Rank Transcendent, cunning and ruthless. The exotic ’Bone-Eating Beauty Snake’ he has tad and refined is wrapped around your waist, re centiters from you.]
[Inside and out, they launch a swift sneak attack on you! Yan Xiong’s nose twitches, his mouth wriggles, his eyes fixed on you, making a bizarre face, beneath which appear to be undulating mud eels.]
[Your vision blurs montarily; the space around you seems slightly shaky, as if shrouded in a mist akin to Mirror Flower Water Moon.]
[Ah, you’ve fallen for ’Dream Entrapnt’! Yan Xiong’s dream entrapnt is a special eye technique, the bizarre face is rely a cover, the real intent is to catch your gaze and pull you into a dream, during which you lose control of your body.]
[The Bone-Eating Beauty Snake takes the chance to bite at you.]
[Disaster strikes, you’re immobile, too close to react; Master Xu, your life hangs by a thread, about to be claid by the Bone-Eating Beauty...]
[As quick as it is late, a painful scream suddenly cos from outside the window.]
[A closer look reveals Yan Xiong’s face foaming at the mouth, disintegrating as if losing a substantial amount of blood all at once.]
[It turns out you activated the Black Widow’s ’gaze’ preemptively, facing his dream entrapnt!]
[Did you know he would pull you into a dream by staring? Was this also within your expectation? Ah, astonishing wisdom!]
[You saw Yan Xiong’s eyes, and he saw your compound eyes. With technique against technique, evenly matched, you were pulled into the dream, and Yan Xiong was hit by your ’gaze’.]
[Once your ’gaze’ activated, Yan Xiong’s body disintegrated, severely wounded, ’Dream Entrapnt’ couldn’t sustain, and you took the chance to break free from the dream.]
[You grabbed the Snake Cultivation Beauty, trying hard to breach your ’Jingwei Filling the Sea’ defense, pulled out her fangs, sealed her mouth, and engaged in a turnover competition.]
[—?]
[—Damn, What the hell? At such a ti you still keep your composure, truly a cursed defiant badass.]
[It was a brief exchange, seemingly insignificant but incredibly perilous; you nearly lost your life, but ultimately, your skills prevailed.]
