With the help of the four eagles, Xiu Xi’s situation had much improved.

Ruan Jiaojiao felt much more at ease, though she still kept a tight watch on Xiu Xi, fearing that he might get bitten carelessly. After all, these snakes had very potent venom; just one bite could kill a person.

"Hiss, hiss..." The white snake Changchong, which had previously left, appeared beside her at some point, flicking its forked tongue and stretching its head, watching the melee below with her.

Xiu Xi’s movements were exceptionally agile.

Moreover, he often used his hands in the confrontations, such as supporting himself on the ground to suddenly jump to another spot.

Ruan Jiaojiao was puzzled.

Why did the little villain move around on all fours like a dog?

The eagles and Xiu Xi’s attacks completely enraged the group of snakes, prompting them to exert their greatest strength to attack. Among them, the scarred snake seemed almost conscious as it glanced up at the tree, its dark eyes as if envenomed, making Ruan Jiaojiao’s heart tighten.

Then she saw the snake suddenly lunge toward her.

She was perched on a tree branch over three meters high, and the snake was not even two meters long, but it was very elastic. With a strong flick of its tail, it launched itself in her direction.

"Chatter, chatter..." Monkeys.

"Hiss, hiss..." Changchong.

"..." Even the eagles issued cries akin to alarm.

Ruan Jiaojiao stood rigid, bracing herself against the tree trunk. She knew she should dodge, but when the snake looked at her, she suddenly thought of the little girl from her nightmares, the girl who was called Jiaojiao by the beautiful woman.

When she looked at her, it was with the same kind of gaze, as if she were peering into her soul.

It chilled her to the bone.

"Jiaojiao!" Xiu Xi shouted out, his eyes filled with an unprecedented panic and fear.

That moment.

All his explosive power surged forth.

Leaping from behind, just as the scarred snake was about to reach Ruan Jiaojiao, he grabbed its tail with one hand, pulling it down, and the other hand firmly grasped its head, biting down fiercely at its vital seven-inch segment!

Blood.

Immediately flowed from the corners of his mouth.

The snake struggled desperately a couple of times but soon stopped writhing, hanging limply.

With the snake clamped in his mouth, Xiu Xi dared not let go until one of the eagles came over, took the snake’s body in its beak, and with a peck divided it into two parts. The head section was swallowed in one gulp, and only then did Xiu Xi finally relax, sitting down on the ground with a thud.

The rest of the snakes were also killed by the eagles, each one eaten.

"Quick, let me down! Fast!" Ruan Jiaojiao snapped back to reality, urging the two monkeys.

The two monkeys clutched her waist and lowered her back to the ground.

Ruan Jiaojiao threw herself in front of Xiu Xi, anxiously grabbing him to check over: "Xiuge, are you hurt? Did you get bitten?"

"No." Xiu Xi shook his head, gazing at her lively self, feeling his heart finally settle back into place.

He pulled her down to wipe the tears from her face, but remembering that he had just touched the snake, he didn’t want to dirty her, and could only whisper comforting words: "Don’t cry, I’m fine."

Ruan Jiaojiao wiped her face, her eyes red as tears continued to fall.

She had really been scared to death just now!

Not for herself, but for the fear that the snake would kill him!

"Xiuge, let’s never do this again," Ruan Jiaojiao cried.

Xiu Xi used the back of his hand to rub her little face, pointed at the snake on the ground, and suddenly flashed her a smile.
