Chapter 170: Chapter 170: Is There Really a Soul-Enticing Male Demon?

Xue Xiaoguang hurriedly jumped in front of Yan Qianyi, assuming a protective stance.

Yan Chuhua also moved over.

Yun Mu rose and walked to the side of the three of them.

The four of them watched their surroundings vigilantly.

"Sis, is it a wild beast?" Xiaoguang asked softly.

He hadn’t heard anything, but since his sister mentioned there was some movement, it must be so!

Moreover, the instructor had repeatedly warned them that the mountains were fraught with danger and that they should not be careless.

Yan Qianyi shook her head, "Uncertain, it sounds like some kind of reptile, but it seems like there are also footsteps."

She only heard the rustling sound approaching them, unsure of what exactly it was.

After realizing someone had been observing her in secret, she became more cautious.

Suddenly, the once-stable weather changed.

Dark clouds gathered, blocking the sunlight, and gusts carrying the mountain’s moisture hit them head-on.

Yan Chuhua took a step back, pressing her back tightly against Yan Qianyi’s, "Qianyi, this... there aren’t really soul-snatching male demons in this world, right?"

Mu Yunlie?

He wouldn’t appear here.

Yan Chuhua nudged Yun Mu with her elbow, "Yun Mu, can’t you predict the future? Quickly see what is approaching us."

"I can’t make such predictions now, I need to see the person."

Currently, he could only foresee events related to a person he was looking at, but even that was limited to the short term.

Only by enhancing his spiritual power could he foresee further and more.

Suddenly, Yun Mu thought of something.

He turned to look at Yan Chuhua, trying to use his foresight on her to determine what was approaching them.

The sudden close gaze made Yan Chuhua’s heartbeat quicken.

Stunned, she looked at Yun Mu, her lips unwittingly curving into a smile.

Wow~ Yun Mu’s deep grey eyes are so beautiful.

Yun Mu frowned and quickly closed his eyes, turning away, "Chu Hua, what are you doing to me?"

Facing those green eyes of Yan Chuhua, he was momentarily unable to use his special ability.

"Ah, sorry, sorry. I... I might have accidentally used a special ability on you just now."

Sometimes she couldn’t control it; just by continuously staring into someone’s eyes, she would accidentally hypnotize them and coax out the truth.

When she was fifteen, a boy confessed to her.

She was quite moved at the time by the boy’s beautiful eyes, and she kept looking into them.

When the boy said he liked her.

She was happy and asked him, "Do you really like me?"

But then...

The boy spoke his true feelings.

He said he didn’t like her at all, it was just his parents forcing him, so he confessed to her.

"Here it comes, here it comes! Stop fooling around, you two!" Xue Xiaoguang finally heard the unusual sound and hurriedly stood in front of Yan Qianyi.

The next moment, a young man dressed in a camouflage military uniform emerged from the jungle.

"..." Xiaoguang was stunned for a moment, "Damn! It’s you, you scared us to death! We thought it was some monster."

Suddenly, Yan Chuhua cried out.

The momentarily relaxed Xiaoguang, startled by her, looked around frantically.

"Poison... poison snake!" Yan Chuhua pointed to Yu Jin’s hand.

She saw a banded krait dangling from Yu Jin’s hand.

Yan Qianyi completely let her guard down, no wonder she felt the movements earlier were strange, it turned out to be the sound of a snake dragging through the grass.

Yu Jin threw the snake to the feet of the group, "You guys handle it."

Having finished speaking, he went to sit aside.

Xue Xiaoguang asked, "Sharing it with us?"

Yu Jin’s lips were tightly pressed, he nodded.

"My man, what a generous act!" Xue Xiaoguang said happily, "Sis, we got something to eat!"

Yan Chuhua had already jumped to the side in fright, "But it’s a poison snake, can we eat it?"

"We can eat it, and it’s really delicious!" Xue Xiaoguang looked at Yan Qianyi, "Right, sis?"

Yan Qianyi nodded, "Not only can we eat it, but it’s also great."

In the Ancient Medical Technique, the banded krait is a type of medicinal material, known to replenish vitality, strengthen muscles and bones, clear meridians, expel wind and disease, beautify the skin, and nourish the skin.

To prepare it for eating, one must only slice open the abdomen, remove the innards, remove the teeth, along with the venom sacs on either side of the head.

At this time, Yan Qianyi was examining the banded krait at her feet. She noticed a human tooth mark on it.

She looked puzzledly at Yu Jin who had sat down a short distance away, "Did you kill this banded krait by biting it?"

During their military training at the training base, Yu Jin and she were in the same team. She had heard from Chuhua that Yu Jin’s special ability was poison.

Yu Jin still didn’t speak; he just "hmm" lightly through his nose.

"Pffft hahaha..." Xue Xiaoguang burst out laughing, "I’ve only seen poison snakes bite people to death, never seen someone bite a poison snake to death. Yu Jin, you’re really something! Even the poison snake is less poisonous than you."

Yu Jin slightly furrowed his eyebrows.

Yan Chuhua vigorously rubbed her own arms. Just looking at the banded krait made her feel all tingly. Knowing that Yu Jin had actually bitten the snake, she got goosebumps all over.

Xue Xiaoguang pulled out a dagger, "Sis, you start a fire by drilling wood, I’ll go to the stream with Yun Mu to handle the snake."

Upon hearing this, Yu Jin threw over a lighter.

Yan Qianyi glanced at it, "With a lighter here, Yun Mu can start the fire. Let’s not have Chuhua touch this thing anymore. I’ll go handle it with Xiaoguang."

"Sis, what did you call me?" Xue Xiaoguang suddenly lit up.

Sis had actually called him Xiaoguang!

Did this mean their relationship got closer?

Before, he felt his name was too common, not like a name for someone destined for great things.

But now, hearing it from sis’s mouth, he suddenly felt his name was prestigious!

"Stop chatting and get moving," Yan Qianyi picked up the banded krait barehanded and headed to the stream.

"Roger that!" Xue Xiaoguang bounced after her.

"Qianyi is so brave, daring to catch the snake barehanded. I get shivers just looking," Yan Chuhua admired looking at Yan Qianyi’s back.

If she had to catch the snake barehanded, she would probably die on the spot.

"Come on, I’ll teach you how to start a fire." Yun Mu picked up the lighter from the ground, "We from the Special Department will have to conduct solo missions in the future; you still need to learn these basic survival skills."

Yan Chuhua felt a warmth in her heart and nodded emphatically.

After leaving home, she had always been on her own.

She did not expect that after getting into the Federation Military Academy, she would meet Qianyi and Yun Mu, and now Xiaoguang too.

They were much better than those villains at home.

She felt so happy, a happiness she had never known before!

At the stream, Xue Xiaoguang took the banded krait from Yan Qianyi’s hands, "Sis, you sit, I’ll handle this."

He glanced back at Yu Jin sitting in the distance, "I’ll tell you a funny story, guaranteed to make you die laughing."
