At that moment, Wan'er was unaware that not far behind her was a cliff, with dark mist swirling around its edge...
"No! Sister Wan'er." With an anxious shout, a tall and thin boy in a blue shirt, who was a head taller than the little girl, appeared not far in front of her.
"What?" Wan'er stepped back.
"Watch out!" The blue-haired boy, surrounded by a faint blue aura, rushed to Wan'er's side like the wind and grabbed her hand...
"Brother Motian, you!" Wan'er was about to say something when her right foot slipped, and her whole body leaned backward. Fortunately, Motian caught her in time, and Wan'er finally regained her balance. However, the spirit jade in her hand drew a beautiful arc and was flung behind her head...
"My spirit jade!" In a panic, Wan'er forcefully broke free from Mo Tian's hand, turned around, and jumped off the cliff, chasing after the spirit jade...
In the hazy black mist, a protruding rectangular rock jutted out horizontally from five meters below the cliff.
The rock was about three meters long. A fully grown black python was coiled up at the very edge of the rock, its head raised and mouth wide open, as if waiting for something...
"Get away! Don't even think about taking my things!" Sensing something was wrong, just as the spirit jade was about to fall into the snake's mouth along with the black mist, Xiao Wan'er sped up, swooped down, and with a quick flick of her wrist, hooked the red rope around the spirit jade, pulling it out of the black mist.
With the spirit jade in hand, the spiritual light lifted Wan'er's body, preventing her from falling. Wan'er then turned around, about to land on the other side of the stone...
Just as the treasure was about to be in their hands, it was snatched back. "Sizzle..." The black snake leaped up and went to meet Xiao Wan'er.
"Sister Wan'er," just then, Mo Tian, who had followed closely behind, stood on top of the rock.
He quickly reached out and pulled Wan'er behind him, then turned around and pushed her against the wall before turning back to prepare to fight the black snake...
The black snake, its mouth full of fangs, bit down on Mo Tian's eye. "Ouch!" Mo Tian cried out in pain. The snake released its grip, coiling its tail around Mo Tian, then twisted its body, unintentionally exposing its vital spot to Mo Tian's view...
"Insolence! How dare you pester me?" Xiao Motian grinned, his face darkening. Enduring the pain, he extended his fingers, and the nails of his ten fingers flashed with a sharp white light, like ten small knives, as he reached out to grab the black snake's vital spot...
"Sizzle..." With nowhere to hide, its scales fell off, its wounds reopened, and the intense pain was unbearable for the black snake. It released Mo Tian and began to writhe on the bluestone. Wisps of black energy emanated from its body, and soon, the black snake disappeared...
Seeing that the black snake had disappeared, Wan'er breathed a sigh of relief. However, when she turned around, she saw that Mo Tian's bitten eye was beginning to swell, and his men's clothes were torn in several places.
"Brother Motian, are you in pain?" Wan'er felt a pang of heartache. She stepped forward, stumbling on her tiptoes, and reached out her small hand to touch Motian's wound.
"Die!" A shrill voice pierced the air from the cliff top, followed immediately by a deafening roar from above...
"Something fell down!" Xiao Wan'er looked up and a cloud of dust rushed towards her.
"Wan'er, don't be afraid! Brother Motian is here." Motian pulled Wan'er to his chest and comforted her through gritted teeth.
"Boom!" As if the mountains were collapsing and the earth was splitting open, large amounts of mud and rocks crashed down from above.
"Ah!" Xiao Wan'er screamed, her feet dangling in the air, tumbling down with Mo Tian...
