Chapter 107: Chapter 106: She Has A Special Technique To Capture The Snake King

Su Shu also didn’t know where the fire came from but took a step forward with a swoop.

That feeling of “satisfaction” seemed to become even stronger.

Zhao Kang was terrified and grabbed her hard, growling, “Have you lost your mind, charging forward like that!”

Su Shu turned her head and said, “Captain Zhao, stop dragging this out; take them and retreat. If we keep delaying, they’ll be in even more danger. I understand now; they only want me. You need to go! If you don’t leave now, it’ll be too late.”

Zhao Kang looked at her and then at the snakes in front of them, eyeing Su Shu with a hungry gaze.

On the young girl’s face was a calm openness; the tension and fear from earlier had disappeared, replaced by a suppressed anger.

...

Zhao Kang was uneasy.

However, Su Shu said, “Captain Zhao, you know in your heart that even if you stayed, it wouldn’t make much of a difference.”

These words made Zhao Kang feel uncomfortable.

He knew that this girl was just trying to provoke him into retreating as soon as possible.

Zhao Kang stood his ground, and Su Shu frowned. If they continued this stalemate, Tang Zelin’s condition would worsen, and the lives of the others would be at even greater risk.

She couldn’t allow him to stay any longer.

Just now, in a flash of inspiration, she had suddenly thought of a way to save them.

But that method absolutely could not be revealed in front of others.

Zhao Kang had to leave!

“Captain Zhao, stop wasting time. If they only want me, your staying will just be sacrificing your life for nothing. It’s better to take the others and get them safely down the mountain. Besides, we can’t be sure if we’ll encounter even more trouble later on.”

“But…”

“No buts, that’s settled. I only ask you for one thing; can you promise me that?”

“You get out of here, I’ll handle this!” Zhao Kang’s eyebrows furrowed.

Su Shu: “You think I’m heading out to die? You’re mistaken. I just thought of a way that might let us evade the snakes’ attack.”

Zhao Kang gave her a cold glance and said in a deep voice, “If there was a way, you would have said it already. Why wait until now?”

How could a young girl be so stubborn, Zhao Kang thought.

Su Shu really didn’t have time to explain anymore and also lowered her voice, saying, “Fine, if you won’t retreat, I’ll charge forward!”

“You!”

Zhao Kang was exasperated. What was she doing, joking with her life at a time like this?

He wanted to grab her and forcibly drag her away, but as soon as Su Shu daringly took a step forward, Zhao Kang’s face turned pale with fright.

“Alright, alright, Miss Su, don’t move. I’m retreating, I’m retreating.”

“Hmm, retreat quickly!”

With no other choice, Zhao Kang backed away facing the direction of Su Shu’s back.

And to his surprise, he discovered that the situation really was as Su Shu had said. As long as she stood there, the snakes on the opposite side had no intention of attacking.

It was extrEmely strange.

But to leave her life in danger and escape himself, it was heavy on Zhao Kang’s heart, and all the soldiers behind him felt stifled.

Zhao Kang retreated but saw Tang Zelin clutching his chest, his face turning ashen, trying to get off the stretcher and move forward, while the warriors beside him kept stopping him.

Tang Zelin’s complexion was terrifying to behold.

“Leave her alone out there?” His voice was laced with a cold hardness like shards of ice.

“If I didn’t retreat, she would have charged forward,” Zhao Kang said with restlessness in his heart and an unpleasant tone.

Everyone behind Su Shu was staring at her, a group of grown men standing here, yet relying on one woman to stand in front and fight for a chance of survival for them?

“I’m going over.”

Before those three words were fully spoken, a hand chopped the back of his neck, and he collapsed into unconsciousness right there.

The warriors beneath him looked puzzled at their group captain.

Zhao Kang said roughly, “To be entrusted by others is to be loyal.”

Everyone understood; it must have been Su Shu’s wish.

Alone and unsupported, Su Shu had already figured it out during the extremEly tense circumstances.

If they dared to come over, she would risk it all to try and see if her “space” could capture them!
