Chapter 92 (2/2)
Bai Jing calmed down and pointed to a spot not far from them. ”Let's head there.” Wherever they entered the s.p.a.ce would be where they emerged when they left. If they escaped into the s.p.a.ce here, they would still be faced with the mutated sugarcane. They would only gain a chance at life if they went to an open area.
Xiao Sa nodded and did not ask why. Just as they were about to retreat, a sense of foreboding suddenly rose up from the bottom of their hearts. Their body tensed unconsciously as a bloodcurdling feeling rose up, and a huge sense of crisis enveloped them…
“Hisssss!” A thick, giant snake smashed through the trees, hissing from its vermillion red mouth as it locked its narrow pupils on its prey. Upon seeing that Xiao Sa had noticed it, it didn't even hesitate for a moment before flas.h.i.+ng close as quick as lightning and sweeping its tail over.
Caught off guard, Xiao Sa was knocked down by the snake's tail. Bai Jing hurriedly brandished his blade and slashed viciously at the huge snake's tail.
“Ding!” A crisp noise rang out as the steel blade collided with the snake's scales and produced sparks.
Although it wasn't harmed, the giant snake seemed to have been irritated by Bai Jing. The snake's head turned as it switched targets, its mouth stretching open wide as it instantly dove in to attack Bai Jing.
There was the snake up ahead, and the mutant sugarcane behind them. Xiao Sa's heart was tense as dozens of flying knives flew out towards the giant snake's eyes while Bai Jing replaced his blade with a submachine gun.
“Ding! Ding! Ding!” A flying knife struck true and was followed by a splash of red. Regardless of what it was, the eyes were always the most vulnerable part of the body. The giant snake felt pain, and its body coiled up in anger.
Bai Jing's thoughts raced as he recalled how he had dealt with mutant snakes in his previous life. He looked at the huge snake's strong body, and his eyes suddenly lit up. ”The white scales seven inches down are its fatal point.”
As soon as he spoke, Xiao Sa launched a sudden attack when he saw the chance for victory. Without any warning, the snake twisted its body, spraying black liquid from its mouth as it twitched twice and finally toppled over.
Bai Jing was in a panic as he hurriedly looked over at Xiao Sa, only to see that his skin was gradually darkening, and his face was twisted from pain. Even so, he continued fighting against the incoming branches, his voice weak and his breathing harsh as though gasping out his last words, ”Little Jing, hurry up and flee… I can't hold on for long…”
“We'll be alright!” Bai Jing snarled. His once clear and melodious voice had turned sharp and harsh. He hugged Xiao Sa to him tightly and flashed into his s.p.a.ce. He had never regretted anything as much as he did now. He had forgotten that the snake would also have a final trump card; the poison had been the huge snake's life, and he had forgotten that the snake could also use it to ensure that they perished together.
Xiao Sa's gaze was blurred, and his thoughts were vague and dim. Bai Jing didn't know when it had started, but his eyes had already been filled with tears for a while now. He could only beg for the heavens to look favourably upon them and pray that the spring water would be able to help Xiao Sa. If something were to happen to Xiao Sa… Bai Jing only realized at this moment that Xiao Sa was his whole world. His compa.s.sion and conscience were all based on the premise of Xiao Sa's safety. If this world no longer had Xiao Sa, he might even choose to destroy the world. So what if he dragged the entire planet to h.e.l.l along with him?
He had countless regrets and blamed himself for worrying too much. Why did he have to insist on choosing a safe place to enter the s.p.a.ce? If they had just come in earlier, Xiao Sa would not have been injured trying to save him, let alone encounter the giant snake's attack.
Pressing down on the anger in his heart, Bai Jing carefully lowered Xiao Sa into the spring water. When he saw that Xiao Sa's breathing gradually smoothed out, his heart finally relaxed a little. Just now, his thoughts had also been confused by his worries.
He fiercely wiped away his tears as endless amounts of rage exuded from his body. He, Bai Jing, had always been someone who sought revenge for the smallest grievance. They had suffered such a big loss today, and Xiao Sa had even gotten hurt. That d.a.m.ned forest, d.a.m.ned giant snake. No matter what, he couldn't take this lying down.
Bai Jing didn't even bother dressing his own wounds before going out of his s.p.a.ce. The giant snake's body was still lying on the ground, and the sugarcane in the forest foolishly began to move again when it noticed his arrival.
Bai Jing sneered, his cold gaze carrying traces of destructive intent. He first yanked out the giant snake's crystal nucleus, then, before the sugarcane could even act, Bai Jing brought out several barrels of gasoline from his s.p.a.ce and opened them up, kicking them in all directions and letting them roll into the woods, spilling out gasoline as they went.
After casually lighting a fire, Bai Jing flashed back into his s.p.a.ce. He had always believed that if others did not offend him, he would not go and make trouble for others. But if they offended him, then he would destroy their entire family! Even if it was a forest, he would still do the same. Since they touched his reverse scale, then he would make sure to eradicate even their roots! The giant snake that was already dead had gotten off easy!
