C167 (2/2)

”Old man, why didn't you come back later to collect my corpse?” Bu Jinghua cursed out loud. She really thought she was doomed. Only at the moment of her death did she realize how unwilling she was to leave this place! The appearance of the silver mask allowed her heart to finally calm down.

”Ugh …” He didn't expect that Bu Jinghua would call him an old man, causing him to blush slightly. ”Sorry, I came late. The main reason is that I was still healing that dying brat, so …” The silver mask began to explain in a serious manner. He waved his hand and a thick stream of air rose up and collided with the giant rock eagles. The huge body of the giant rock hawk was quickly swept away and it fell on the ground, dead.

As expected of Stage Nine, killing these Giant Rock Eagles was akin to crushing an ant.

”Long Yan, he's not dead …” When he heard the silver-masked man's words, Bu Jinghua's heart involuntarily trembled. He was even extremely excited by the news.

”Mm, with me here, I won't die!” With another sweep of his silver mask, the last Giant Rock Eagle quickly fell to the ground and died.

”En!” Bu Jinghua lightly replied, but the excitement in her heart did not calm down for a long time. Long Yan's death was extremely good news for her!

While the two of them were talking, Silver Face had easily disposed of all the Giant Rock Eagles. He landed on the ground with Bu Jinghua in his arms and took the opportunity to release him.

”You're worried about him!” At this moment, the silver mask on his face showed that it was definitely coming from above his head, causing Bu Jinghua to be slightly startled. ”Your heart is beating very fast!” Before Bu Jinghua could retort, he had already revealed his evidence.

”Ugh …” I'm afraid of death, can't I? ” Bu Jinghua raised his voice to refute, then immediately turned around and left by himself. She did not want her worries to be seen through like this.

”…” Staring at the back of Bu Jinghua, who was still in a guilty conscience, Silver Face could only faintly smile and shake his head before following behind Bu Jinghua.

Suddenly, the snake cub in Bu Jinghua's embrace ran out, twisted its body and quickly ran to the Purple Rock Snake's side. He ignored it, using his tongue to lick the blood off the snake's head, and within the Purple Rock Snake's eyes, the dying Purple Rock Snake finally slowly opened its eyes.

”Wuwuwu …” The little snake cub thought that the Violet Cliff Snake was crying nonstop. From the looks of it, it seemed to know that his mother was about to die.

”Howl …” A mournful cry that was weak to the point where it did not seem to exist came out of the Purple Rock Snake's mouth. It opened its eyes and then slowly closed them. It seemed that holding on had truly been difficult. It was holding its last breath as it waited for the snake cub.

”Wuwuwu …” The little snake cub tried his best to support the Purple Rock Snake's face, as if he was making a final effort.

”Howl …” The Violet Cliff Snake replied weakly, as though it was about to die.

Looking at the interaction between the two of them and their reluctance to part, Bu Jinghua felt his heart tighten.

”Wuwuwu …” The Purple Rock Snake opened its eyes and looked at Bu Jinghua and then at the little snake cub. It looked like it was saying something.

”Wuwuwu …” The baby snake glanced at Bu Jinghua, then reluctantly looked at the Purple Rock Snake and shook his head while crying out.

”Wuwuwu …” The Purple Rock Snake held its last breath, its voice raised by half a pitch, its attitude seemingly very unyielding.

”Wuwuwu …” Only now did the snake cub let out a small cry, as if it had compromised. Then, it glanced at the Purple Rock Snake once more, and walked over eagerly. It then jumped into Bu Jinghua's arms, and used its tongue to constantly lick Bu Jinghua's face to show its goodwill.

Seeing this, the Purple Rock Snake seemed to be relieved. After looking at the snake cub with a gratified gaze, it finally swallowed its last breath and collapsed forever.

”Wuwuwu …” Snake Boy wanted to jump down and run to the side of the Purple Rock Snake, but after hesitating for a moment, he decided to stay in Bu Jinghua's embrace. He pitifully stared at the dead Purple Rock Snake and sobbed.

”Little guy, don't worry, I'll take care of you!” Bu Jinghua understood the Purple Rock Snake's meaning and the snake cub's meaning. He gently caressed the snake cub's small head and said.

How sad Bu Jinghua felt when he saw this scene, only he himself could experience it.

”This snake cub …” Silver Face was slightly puzzled as he looked at the snake cub in Bu Jinghua's arms. He was worried that this snake cub would harm Bu Jinghua sooner or later.

”This is my pet …” With the baby snake in his arms, he turned around and left. She wouldn't allow anyone to covet her treasure. Although he was reluctant to part with it, if Teacher really needed it … She will still call it out. Little fellow, I'm sorry that Bu Jinghua owes you this much.

Staring at the gentle back, Silver Face did not say anything more. He secretly decided that if he ever found out that this snake cub was a beast, he would definitely take its life.

”Bu Jinghua, do you know how to get back?” Silver Face suddenly roared at Bu Jinghua's back. Did this girl forget something?

”Ugh …” ”I don't know!” Bu Jinghua turned around and soon returned to his usual calm and wise state. ”However, I don't want others to know that I'm still alive. Can you do me a favor?” She looked pleadingly at Silver Face.

”Speak!” If it wasn't too difficult to help, he would definitely help.

”Bring me back to the Bu Clan in secret, we don't want anyone else to know about this! Even Grandfather doesn't allow it! ” Bu Jinghua's face was solemn, he did not seem like he was joking at all.
