Daqing led Sutang and Sibao to a place where the giant python could not reach them, and placed the person and the child on the ground.
At this moment, a chaotic battle had broken out in the distance.
The giant python's enormous body was larger than any beast they had ever seen; it was like a mutated monster.
Yingjie placed the luggage next to Sutang and looked in the direction of Hushen with a worried expression.
"Yingjie, Daqing, you two go help. I'm safe here," Su Tang said, noticing Yingjie's eagerness.
Faced with such an "enemy," she knew that not causing trouble was already a great help.
"I'm not going. I want to stay here and protect Atang," Daqing replied without hesitation.
Su Tang glanced at Ying Tai and Ying Yiyi who were following behind, thought for a moment, and changed her mind, saying, "Alright, with Da Qing protecting me and Si Bao, Ying Jie, you can go without worry."
Having just witnessed how these brother and sister would even use their own clansmen as human shields, Su Tang was also worried about them.
Seeing this, Yingjie nodded, "Okay, I'm going to help the boss. Be careful."
After saying that, he spread his wings and flew towards the giant python.
The python is enormous but extremely agile, its smooth skin like an impenetrable fortress.
After several rounds, Su Jianyuan and his two companions were unable to harm the giant python in the slightest.
Mo Bai stood atop the giant python's head, a smug smile on his face. "My younger brother is about to transform into a python, something you mortal beasts can't compare to. If you want to defeat it, you'll have to wait until your next life!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the giant python beneath him seemed to receive a command and bit at the nearest tiger, Hu Shen.
"Hu Shen!"
"Boss!!"
Several exclamations rang out, but Hu Shen's expression remained unchanged. Just as the giant python's gaping maw approached, he leaped up and slapped at the green, triangular eye with one claw.
He was incredibly fast; even Mo Bai only saw a fleeting yellow afterimage. The giant python beneath him roared and began to writhe wildly.
For a moment, it felt as if countless whips were lashing the ground.
"Brother!" Mo Bai's expression changed. He squatted down and saw that one of the giant python's eyes was injured and it could not open its eyes.
"Damn it, you damned tiger-clan beastmen, it seems I underestimated you."
"Hu Shen, you're amazing!" Su Jianyuan looked at Hu Shen, who had landed, with a shocked expression. If he weren't in his beast form, he would have given him a thumbs up.
Hu Shen was even stronger than he had imagined; he hadn't dared to try at such close range just now.
Try it and you'll die!
No sooner had the words left his mouth than the python's tail struck again.
The injured python became even more agitated, as if it wouldn't leave until it had devoured them that day.
After Ying Jie joined the battle, Su Jianyuan and his group of four clearly gained the upper hand, but the giant python could not do anything to them, nor could they kill the giant python.
"Let's keep going. I refuse to believe we can't kill it once it's exhausted!" Su Jianyuan noticed that the python's range of movement was getting smaller and smaller, and it was clear that its strength was not as good as before.
Mo Bai also noticed this, and a ferocious look flashed across his youthful face.
"My younger brother will definitely transform into a dragon. You think you can defeat it with just a few of you? Ha!"
He reached out and gently stroked the giant python's head; his hand was even smaller than a single scale of the python.
“Brother, I told you, I will definitely turn you into a jiao, into a dragon, and into the most powerful beastman, so that no beastman will be able to bully you anymore.”
“Brother, eat me. If you eat me, you can completely transform into a dragon and then eat them all.”
"I will always be with you..."
Mo Bai jumped down, stood on the cracked ground, opened his arms as if welcoming a new life, and faced the gaping maw.
The python's eyes were stained red with blood, blurring its vision, yet it remained motionless, as if sensing that the little person before it was its only family in the world.
It was stupid from a young age, only growing in size but not in brains. Only its small older brother would stand in front of it to protect it.
One of them could not transform into beast form, and the other could not transform into human form. They were regarded as outcasts and jinxes by the tribe.
They beat, bullied, and drove him away, until one day they nearly killed his brother. In a fit of rage, he swallowed all the beastmen who had beaten his brother.
It was so full, the first time in its life it had ever felt so full. It was uncomfortable, but it was happy because those orcs could no longer bully its brother.
So it ate all the snakes and beasts in the entire tribe.
It seems that the older brother discovered that it would become stronger by eating orcs, so he took it to capture more orcs. Its appetite grew bigger and bigger. Whenever it got hungry, it would roll around underground. Its huge body was enough to make the land within dozens of miles tremble.
At that moment, looking at that small figure, its hunger returned.
The last shred of reason vanished, replaced by an endless aura of slaughter.
"Oh no, we can't let the giant python eat him."
Hu Shen sensed something was wrong, but before the four of them could make a move, the small figure had already been swallowed by the giant python.
"Damn! Those two guys are really weirdos." Su Jianyuan's temples throbbed, and he couldn't help but curse under his breath.
"Boss, its horns are starting to grow again..." Niu Li's voice made the others' hearts tighten immediately.
This is really the rhythm of transforming into a dragon!
From a distance, Ying Yiyi and Ying Tai saw this scene and felt that they were doomed.
"Brother, let's run away first. I don't want to be eaten by snakes, waaaah..." Ying Yiyi was so scared that she burst into tears.
Ying Tai also wanted to escape, but he was too weak!
He could only watch the situation on the giant python's side while panting and praying that the orcs could hold out a little longer, giving him time to rest.
"Coward." Da Qing rolled his eyes, the new word he learned from Lin Xia finally coming in handy.
Sibao was a little restless, scratching at the ground with its paws.
"Sibao, what's wrong?" Su Tang noticed Sibao's unusual behavior and came to Sibao's side.
But they discovered that the stone beneath the four claws gleamed with a golden hue under the moonlight.
She paused for a moment, then looked around and realized that the place she was in seemed to be special, with an invisible dividing line between it and the cracked ground in front of her.
No matter how hard the giant python fought, it showed no intention of getting closer.
Is it a coincidence?
Looking at the yellow stone that Si Bao dug out, a guess flashed through Su Tang's mind. Her expression hardened, she walked a few meters forward, picked up a thin stone slab, held it in both hands, and began to dig in the ground as well.
"A-Tang, what are you doing?"
Seeing Su Tang's actions, Da Qing quickly followed and asked with a curious expression.
"Daqing, help me out. See if all the stones underground are these yellow ones." Su Tang said, as she dug out another large yellow stone.
If what she guessed was true, then there's hope for today...
