"Life is unfair for snakes! I'm sick and I still get exploited. As my owner, shouldn't you take me out for something good to eat?!"
This high-level six-winged phallus is indeed no pushover; it has only just recognized its master and has already begun to exploit Xie Zhou.
"Smack!"
Xie Zhou slapped the snake's head directly.
"If you hadn't swallowed me, you wouldn't be in so much trouble now!"
"Can I eat the little boy in the white shirt?"
"The six-winged serpent said weakly."
"I'm a villain, and that little boy is the chosen one of this world. Why don't you eat him, and then I can complete my mission smoothly?"
Xie Zhoumei thought to herself.
"Use your brain properly! You're just a cannon fodder villain, and you'll eventually be won over by the male lead. Give up."
The system's words, which sounded like a comforting yet even more comforting, stirred a few emotions in Xie Zhou's heart.
"We don't need to act like this, okay? My task is simply to hinder Luo Fantian's improvement, it's that simple!"
...
Xie Zhou was still having a mental conversation with the system, but the Six-Winged Illusion Python only had the sentence "can eat the little boy" in its mind.
"White clothes, a little boy?"
The six-winged serpent was practically drooling. Its emerald green eyes were fixed on a boy not far ahead, who was wrapped in a spider web but was about to be pulled out.
It seems that this is the little boy its owner was talking about that could be eaten.
The six-winged serpent involuntarily produced more saliva.
Meanwhile, Xie Zhou was busy arguing with the system and didn't notice the pitiful Luo Fantian wrapped in spider webs in front of him.
Xiao Huan accelerated and rushed towards Luo Fantian.
Poor Luo Fantian had just escaped death from the spider web when suddenly a large, blue, winged python appeared.
"ah!"
Luo Fantian shouted, pulling Xie Zhou out of his argument with the system.
"What the hell are you doing?!"
Xie Zhou punched the Six-Winged Illusionary Python, which was somewhat stunned and its speed naturally slowed down. Luo Fantian reacted quickly and withdrew from the Six-Winged Illusionary Python's attack range.
"Xie Zhou? What are you doing there! Danger! Get out of the way!"
Out of the corner of his eye, Luo Fantian noticed that Xie Zhou seemed somewhat at a loss on the six-winged illusory python.
"Brother Brahma! You go quickly! I'll hold off this six-winged illusory python!"
Xie Zhou couldn't very well say that the Six-Winged Illusion Python was a newly subdued spirit beast, otherwise the matter of the Six-Winged Illusion Python attacking Luo Fantian would become unclear.
"Xie Zhou! You..."
Luo Fantian stared wide-eyed at Xie Zhou, who was standing on the six-winged serpent. He was nervous but helpless.
"What do we do! What do we do!"
Luo Fantian paced back and forth on the ground like an ant on a hot pan.
"It's alright, I'm fine. Senior Brother Brahma, you should go quickly!"
While pretending to fight the Six-Winged Illusion Python, Xie Zhou shouted at Luo Fantian.
"Xiao Huan, find a chance to put me down later, then walk away, understand?"
The poor six-winged serpent was now just a tool snake.
"Master, I can shrink!"
In order not to leave Xie Zhou, the Six-Winged Illusion Python began to recommend its skills.
"That's fine then. Just pretend to leave right away, then shrink down and quietly return to my side."
Xie Zhou thought for a moment and realized that she didn't know what kind of magical beasts she might encounter in this ghost forest. With her own abilities, she would probably die if she encountered just one.
"Brother Brahma! Catch me!"
Xie Zhou roared at Luo Fantian.
Luo Fantian was startled, and Xie Zhou was already in front of him.
He naturally reached out and took Xie Zhou's hand.
Xie Zhou wrapped his arms around Luo Fantian's neck, and after spinning around a few times, he finally landed safely on the ground.
"Thank goodness you're here, senior brother."
Xie Zhou feigned a long sigh of relief, looking at Luo Fantian with an admiring gaze, which made Luo Fantian a little embarrassed.
"I...I wasn't much of a help, so there's no need to thank me."
Luo Fantian was truly an innocent young man; his face turned red after Xie Zhou praised him like that.
"Brother Brahma, if it weren't for you, I would have fallen to the ground here long ago."
Perhaps because he had embraced Luo Fantian, Xie Zhou felt his body's power increase a little, and his appearance naturally improved by three percent.
Although this improvement didn't make Xie Zhou's face look any obvious different, the lines of his face were softened a bit, and he did look more comfortable than before.
"No need to thank me... This... This is what I should do, but Xie Zhou, how did you get into this ghost forest? And how did you get on that snake?"
Luo Fantian truly lives up to his reputation as the chosen one; in just a few minutes, he has come up with so many questions.
"I saw the signal flare that my senior brother fired."
In the original story, Luo Fantian fired a signal flare after his accident, which was seen by Ling Feng. When Ling Feng rescued Luo Fantian, he was attracted by Luo Fantian's tenacious spirit, which is why he made Luo Fantian his chief disciple.
However, it was clear that because of Xie Zhou's appearance, Ling Feng did not see the signal flare. On the contrary, no one in the Sword Sect knew that Luo Fantian had entered the Ghost Forest in the middle of the night and even encountered danger.
"Master is in seclusion, and my fellow disciples are all cultivating. I can't disturb them, so I keep searching for a way to enter the Ghost Forest. I think I'm more popular with these evil ghosts and demons. With me around, my fellow disciples won't have to work so hard. Although I can't do anything for you, I can at least lure them away..."
As Xie Zhou spoke, she almost moved herself to tears.
"Is that so?"
The naive boy rubbed his head, looking at the unattractive little girl in front of him, and felt a little warmth in his heart.
He seemed to think that the little girl in front of him wasn't as ugly as usual.
"What a well-acted show."
The system watched with great interest.
"But you managed to complete the task by accident."
The system's helpless voice echoed in Xie Zhou's mind.
"What's wrong? You seem unhappy that I've completed the task."
Whenever Xie Zhou and the system speak, they inevitably end up arguing.
"I just can't stand how your lousy brain can still come up with something by accident."
The system said something else.
"Xie Zhou... Xie Zhou... Are you alright? Are you hurt?"
Seeing Xie Zhou standing there blankly, Luo Fantian assumed that Xie Zhou was injured and quickly checked him over.
"It's nothing, I was just a little distracted..." Xie Zhou chuckled.
"You careless fool, how dare you let your mind wander in this ghost forest! Be careful, or the monsters might swallow you whole!"
Luo Fantian grabbed Xie Zhou's small hand.
"Um?"
Xie Zhou was startled.
