When the brothers heard what Xingxing said, they became even more nervous. Erfu and Sifu relied on strength, but now even if they were strong, they would have no use for it.
"Third brother, you're quick-witted, think of a solution!" Zhou Dafu placed his hopes on Zhou Sanfu.
Zhou Sanfu felt immense pressure, and sweat broke out on his forehead. He exhaled a breath of stale air and said in despair, "I can't think of a solution either, so don't count on me."
These three silver-tipped snakes came to the cave following the scent, and all three were larger than the other snakes. It was easy to guess that the largest one was the snake king, and the other two were also of high status in the snake group, otherwise how could they be qualified to follow the snake king?
"Junior Brother, how did you know something happened at the cave? Even Fourth Junior Brother didn't figure it out." Zhu Qiuyu asked suspiciously as he followed closely behind Zhu Lin.
Meanwhile, Zhu Chumo was multitasking, quickly calculating with his fingers, and came to a conclusion: "Some of the fish that escaped the net went towards the cave; it was the Snake King and its guards."
"Tsk, what a beast. He even feinted and led his minions to exploit the loophole. It seems this Snake King does have some brains," Zhu Qiuyu muttered under his breath.
Zhu Chumo still had the mind to explain to the group, "Think about queen bees and wolf kings. The ones that can become kings are much larger than their kind, and they are also smarter and more powerful. This silver-tipped snake king is probably more powerful than thousands of small snakes. It's not easy to deal with, not to mention..."
He didn't say what he was going to say next. Besides, the people in the cave were all children, and apart from Erfu and Sifu who were stronger, the others were not aggressive. The little girl, in particular, was pink and delicate. All of them combined were no match for the Snake King.
"Alright, Fourth Junior Brother, stop talking. It's more important to get back and save people." Zhu Changge interrupted him. His junior brother was already in a bad mood, so there was no need to upset him further.
“By now, it’s too late for us to get back,” Zhu Chumo said, but he felt the unfriendly gazes from his fellow disciples. He forced a smile and continued, “Don’t be angry yet, let me finish.”
"Enough with the nonsense." Zhu Qiuyu couldn't help but frown. Although he wasn't a kind person, he had spent a lot of time with the Zhou family's boys and had developed some feelings for them. Naturally, he didn't want anything to happen to them.
And then there's that cute, smiling, pretty little girl, whom Junior Brother cherishes dearly. She can't be allowed to get into trouble, otherwise, Junior Brother might do something truly devastating.
Zhu Lin was the fastest and was the first to return to the cave. He hurriedly ran into the cave and then heard a familiar, delicate, and clear voice echoing back.
Wow, you're amazing! You can eat this? Did you grow up eating this?
The boy's clenched heart suddenly relaxed. It seemed the little girl was safe and sound. From what she said, it seemed someone had arrived before him and rescued her.
