Lu Zhe scowled at Tang Xiaoguo for three seconds:
"Tang Xiaoguo, take your hand off me!"
"I didn't dare to...it moved!"
Veins bulged on Lu Zhe's forehead: "That's...that's not a snake!"
Tang Xiaoguo looked back and her face instantly turned red.
"Oh...wrong!"
She quickly retracted her little hand as if burnt.
Ning Shu sigh helplessly: "Your mistake is way too absurd!"
How awkward!
But Tang Xiaoguo didn't care.
"You're a guy. Touching a bit is no big deal!"
Lu Zhe's face was a little red: "What do you mean it's no big deal? Guys get shy too, got it?"
"Aiya, don't get angry Lu Zhe. I'll formally apologize to you, isn't that good enough?"
"Just apologizing, huh!"
"What do you want then? Or do you want me to let you kiss me?"
This left Lu Zhe stumped for a moment.
Kiss her when Ning Shu was here too?
Don't kiss and feel like he was losing out?
Ning Shu knocked her forehead and sighed: "I seriously suspect you did that on purpose, Xiaoguo!"
"Class monitor, how dare you accuse me!"
"And why can't I? Look at that smug face of yours!"
"I just touched by accident. It's not like the class monitor who got an itchy butt and made Little Zhe rub it before straight up riding his face!"
The moment Tang Xiaoguo brought up those two incidents, Ning Shu instantly deflated: "I'm telling you Xiaoguo, can we not mention those things again?"
Just then, the colored snake crawled over.
"Shh, everyone keep still! It's alright."
They watched as it slowly crawled past each person before disappearing into the bushes.
Lu Zhe sighed: "What a waste. That chunk of protein just crawled away."
Ning Shu nodded: "So rumor of wild snakes are true!"
Tang Xiaoguo added: "And I wanted to kill a snake with my bare hands. It got lucky this time!"
Ning Shu agreed: "Me too. Beheading a snake coolly like Sister Bing. That's so awesome!"
"You'll have your chance to kill snakes later. But for now, be careful and don't startle them. Generally if left alone, they won't attack you."
The two girls nodded.
"Replenish your energy because we'll keep climbing up after this. The final stretch isn't easy so everyone be extra careful."
"Got it!"
The three took turns climbing up but when they were just meters away from the cliff top, they encountered a pit viper.
At that time, they had to climb over the last slope to reach the top!
Ning Shu was highest up, with Lu Zhe to her left lower down and Tang Xiaoguo to her right lower down.
The snake lay coiled on a tree, flattening its head as it watched Ning Shu warily.
That was their only path up!
Ning Shu was drenched in cold sweat as she swore: "Damn your ancestry, I was just joking about meeting a snake!"
Tang Xiaoguo stammered while trembling: "Lu Zhe said if left alone, it'll leave on its own!"
That's right!
It should have gone that way but this time, Lu Zhe had an extremely grave look.
He spotted a small hole filled with over a dozen oblong eggs.
"No good. This one's different. We have to kill it!"
Ning Shu asked: "We must pass it to climb up right?"
"It's not about getting past anymore."
Lu Zhe said softly: "Class monitor, there's a snake's nest. It's guarding the eggs. Everyone slowly turn your head and avoid looking at it!"
"Okay..."
As Ning Shu slowly turned her head, she felt a jet of icy water spray on her neck and clothes. It was as if her scalp would explode!
"How rude to spit water!"
"It's fine. The venom can't penetrate skin."
With that, Lu Zhe drew out his Type 30 bayonet and slowly passed it to Ning Shu: "Didn't you want to kill a snake? Here's your chance!"
Ning Shu's face turned white!
He couldn't be serious! Why pass me the knife now?
I just wanted to kill A snake, not a viper right off the bat!
What game has players fighting the end boss straight out of the novice village?
She held the trembling knife rather anxiously.
"Class monitor, don't panic. When it comes to bite me, you slash its neck! Xiaoguo, secure the rope tight. If she drops it, pull her up immediately!" Tang Xiaoguo nodded: "Got it!"
Yet Ning Shu was still confused: "It's closer to me though. Why would it bite you?"
Next, Ning Shu froze as she understood Lu Zhe's intent!
She watched as Lu Zhe reached into the concealed rocky hole.
And as expected, the viper's attention was drawn by his actions. It turned its head and started slithering down slowly.
"Treat it like playing tennis. Give it your all!"
"Understood!" Ning Shu swallowed hard and nodded forcefully.
Lu Zhe then took out an oblong egg from the hole!
The snake's attention was fixed completely on Lu Zhe now. Flicking its tongue, flattening its head, it ignored Ning Shu and crawled toward Lu Zhe!
"Now!"
Ning Shu swung the knife down precisely hacking the snake's head!
But things happened a little unexpectedly!
The head wasn't completely severed. A strip of skin still connected it as it jerked back before finally coming off!
When the head jerked, it actually dropped right in front of Ning Shu's chest, missing by just millimeters!
Knowing the head was still dangerous, Ning Shu was so shocked that she slipped. Lu Zhe and Tang Xiaoguo hurriedly grabbed the rope.
And at that instant, the unforeseeable happened!
The head didn't bite Ning Shu but landed on a log below her. It ricocheted off directly towards Tang Xiaoguo!
Tang Xiaoguo screamed in horror!
But it was useless!
One of her hands held a rock protrusion while the other gripped Ning Shu's safety rope. She had absolutely no way to block the flying snake head!
The head bit right into Tang Xiaoguo's chest!
Scared out of her wits, Tang Xiaoguo mumbled dazedly: "Why me again..."
But she quickly raged: "Jerk! Don't keep bullying the cutest!"
With fiery anger, she ripped the head from her chest and fiercely slammed it on the rocky wall.
Her body then went limp as she started sliding down!
Lu Zhe had no time to think further. Digging his feet firmly into the crevice, he single-handedly held up both their weights.
"Class monitor, tie the rope!"
Coming to her senses, Ning Shu grabbed a jutting rock and bit hard on the Type 30 bayonet before tying the ropes onto the tree.
Lu Zhe undid his rope and shifted to Tang Xiaoguo's side, tying both himself and her together.
"Little Zhe bro..." Tang Xiaoguo looked at Lu Zhe with a hint of despair glittering in her eyes. "This time, I'm really done for right..."
"Shut up! As long as I'm here, you better stay alive and well!"
world slacker. But a genius female disciple just had to get clingy, insisting that he take her as a disciple. Not only that, she was always making advances on him, thoroughly disrupting his peaceful slacker life...
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
