Zhang Fan: "Remove the poison from her."

The black snake obediently shook its head from side to side, then turned to look at Zhang Fan.

Zhang Fan reached out and took Chi Fei's pulse, confirming that the poison in her body had been neutralized. He raised the black snake to eye level with himself, his voice calm and revealing no emotion: "Whether it's poison or medicine, it's all up to you."

Hei nodded vigorously again.

Chi Fei knew she wouldn't die anytime soon, and felt a surge of joy, as if she had survived a catastrophe. Her eyes widened in surprise, and she exclaimed dramatically, "How amazing!"

The black snake raised its head, seemingly proud, blinking its eyes as if waiting for Zhang Fan to praise it.

Zhang Fan frowned slightly: "I don't know your identity, but the fact that you survived the Heavenly Punishment shows that you are not extremely vicious. However, I am disgusted by everything about the Heavenly Dragon Sect."

Upon hearing this, Chi Fei's face drained of color. Zhang Fan hated everything about the Heavenly Dragon Sect, so would he hate her too?

For some reason, she always felt that she was very emotional.

Zhang Fan's every glance, every word, even his breathing, would send Chi Fei's emotions on a rollercoaster, going wildly up and down.

"So don't follow me. Let's keep to ourselves. If you try anything funny again, I'll kill you even if it costs me my life."

The black snake immediately shrank its head, seemingly quite frightened.

It spat in the direction of Tianlong Gate to express its dissatisfaction, but Zhang Fan did not see it. He swung his arm and threw the black object away with force.

The black snake drew a parabola in the air, getting smaller and smaller until it became a tiny black dot on the horizon.

Zhang Fan shielded his eyes from the sun with his hand, making sure the black snake was far away from him. He immediately turned around and squatted down: "Let's go quickly."

Chi Fei lay on Zhang Fan's body, pressing her face tightly against his broad, thick shoulders, feeling the firm muscles that exuded power.

She took a deep breath, savoring Zhang Fan's aura, and felt a deep reluctance to part with him.

Before she knew it, her chest tightened, and she suddenly felt her eyes sting and tears welled up in her eyes.

Zhang Fan felt a hot, wet liquid on his neck and quickly stopped, putting Chi Fei down on the ground: "Are you feeling unwell?"

Chi Fei sniffed: "I'm fine. Maybe I'm about to get my period, which makes me feel down. I'm sorry."

Zhang Fan placed his hand on Chi Fei's pulse, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he remained motionless while taking her pulse.

Seeing Zhang Fan's dazed expression, Chi Fei asked, "Zhang Fan, what's wrong with me?"

Zhang Fan's expression was grave: "This matter is rather tricky."

Chi Fei's heart sank to the bottom again. Zhang Fan was always able to handle anything with ease. How difficult must it be for him to find something so difficult?

Zhang Fan slowly squatted down, looking Chi Fei in the eye, and said, word by word, "You're pregnant."

Chi Fei was still quite far along in her pregnancy and had been bitten by a black snake, which altered her pulse, so Zhang Fan hadn't been able to diagnose it earlier.

He was carrying Chi Fei on his back, pressing on her stomach, which made her feel uncomfortable, and that's when Zhang Fan made the diagnosis.

Chi Fei was stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening and looked shocked. She was pregnant?

"I was bitten by a snake just now. Will this child be in trouble?" Chi Fei asked with a worried expression.

Zhang Fan shook his head: "No, during these few battles, your pregnancy wasn't very stable. The black snake bit you, which indirectly saved you and the child."

Otherwise, given Chi Fei's physical condition just now, if she had miscarried, it could have resulted in the death of both her and her unborn child, and they wouldn't have even been able to wait for Zhang Fan to take her away.

Chi Fei said gratefully, "If I see the black snake again, I will definitely thank it properly and treat it to chicken."

Zhang Fan: "Mm."

Chi Fei's body was not suitable for long-term walking, so Zhang Fan simply carried her in his arms and ran all the way.

Actually, the black snake is a treasure; keeping it will be beneficial for you.

However, the black snake's fawning manner made Zhang Fan unsure whether it was friend or foe.

Black snakes are not easy to control, unlike Xiao Hei, an animal that has been raised by your side since it was a cub.

Zhang Fan was unwilling to take risks with something so unknown.

Zhang Fan could see as clearly as if it were daytime at night, so he walked all night without stopping. He felt that he had left the black snake far behind before he stopped to rest.

Chi Fei: "Zhang Fan, you take a rest. I'll go find something to eat. I'm exhausted after a long night."

Zhang Fan: "No need for that."

He released a bit of spiritual energy from his fingertips, and instantly a flock of birds flew over, circling him and hovering at low altitude. With a flick of his spiritual energy, several sparrows fell down, landing right in his palm.

Chi Fei volunteered to deal with the sparrows, while Zhang Fan gathered firewood nearby.

Zhang Fan lit the firewood with the fire in his palm, while Chi Fei strung the sparrows together and roasted them over the volcano.

Zhang Fan yawned and lay down on the ground, falling asleep.

...

The crackling of burning firewood, accompanied by the chirping of insects and birds, slept soundly.

Suddenly he heard the sound of animals crawling across the grass. He remained still and quietly gathered spiritual energy in his palm.

The sounds around him gradually became clearer. Zhang Fan turned around and slashed fiercely in a certain direction.

A strong wind rose up, and a sharp palm strike swept across, causing the surrounding vegetation to tremble slightly, and broken stones to trace an arc in the air.

A black snake soared into the air, then fell heavily back down.

Chi Fei's face turned deathly pale.

She had heard that snakes are vengeful; if you hurt one or lay a hand on its eggs, it will hold a grudge and be able to find you by its scent no matter how far you run.

Zhang Fan walked very fast last night, and the wind was whistling in his ears. The shadows of the trees on both sides were blurry. No matter how fast the black snake was, it couldn't possibly catch up with him that quickly.

Chi Fei felt a chill run down her spine. Judging by this situation, she could be found no matter where she ran.
