Chapter 1384 -1368: Escape_2

But this pull still caused the python to writhe in pain, its mouth opened wide, releasing Song Xiaodong’s leg.

Faced with such a golden opportunity, how could Song Xiaodong let it slip by? He stomped on the snake’s head with his other foot, his body darting out like a bullet, then grabbed onto the rocks on the cave wall with both hands, finally temporarily escaping danger.

That move just now seemed slow in description, but it was actually a matter of seconds; Qingluan hadn’t even blinked, and Song Xiaodong had already escaped before the snake could coil around.

“Run!” As soon as Song Xiaodong reached the cave wall, he immediately shouted to Qingluan, then kicked off the rocks, and bolted forward.

The python’s tongue was so tough, not to mention its body; with both of them bare-handed, it’s simply unrealistic to think about killing the python.

Qingluan immediately got up and followed, the two of them flew along the cave walls, their speed made them seem like two large birds gliding in the air.

Qingluan glanced back in the air and saw the python swiftly pursuing them in the river, its giant head popping above the water, its tongue constantly flickering; incredibly, its speed surpassed their swift motions, if they hadn’t started a bit earlier, they would have already been caught.

Chapter 1369: A Narrow Escape

“Not good! There’s another one ahead!” Song Xiaodong suddenly shouted.

Qingluan looked in response and saw another giant python charging from the front; this one’s head also emerged above the water, its two eyes gleaming with a greenish hue like headlights.

“What to do?” Even Qingluan, with her exceptional skills, was at a loss; the cave was five or six meters wide, which would normally be ample space for martial arts experts in a duel.

But this python’s body was so massive, one flick might leave no room to evade, let alone two pythons cornering them in between, they’d likely become trapped like caged birds.

“Quick, there’s a small cave here, they probably can’t squeeze in.” Song Xiaodong suddenly stopped and pointed to a small entrance beside him.

Qingluan flew over in an instant, grabbed the rock wall, kicked off forcefully, and leapt across the five or six meter wide water, landing beside Song Xiaodong.

“Get in quickly.” Song Xiaodong grabbed Qingluan’s arm.

Having no other choice, Qingluan didn’t think twice, she directly squeezed herself inside.

The small cave was truly narrow, only allowing one person through; she could only crawl forward clumsily using both hands and feet.

Not far in, her leg bumped into Song Xiaodong’s hand.

“Hurry up, are you trying to get me killed?” Song Xiaodong shouted from behind, pushing her to speed up.

Qingluan desperately crawled, Song Xiaodong seemed even faster, her rear bumped into his face, but in such circumstances, she couldn’t care less.

“Boom!” A muffled sound erupted behind them, causing Qingluan’s body to tremble.

No need to guess, it was the python crashing into the entrance.

This frightened Qingluan even more; without Song Xiaodong’s urging, her speed increased further; fortunately, the small cave was too narrow for the massive python’s body, otherwise, at their current speed, they’d definitely become python chow.

The two crawled over twenty meters, then suddenly a light appeared ahead, Qingluan exclaimed, “There’s an exit ahead!”

“Careful, don’t rush out, check the situation first.” Song Xiaodong quickly advised from behind.

Qingluan slowed down, and Song Xiaodong’s face bumped into her again, perhaps slightly relaxed at this moment, Song Xiaodong suddenly remembered they were still stark naked, and in crawling posture, it seemed a bit…sensual.

But Song Xiaodong really wasn’t in the mood for such thoughts now, the situation was tense, with giant pythons outside, and who knows what inside.

“Hey, what’s the situation ahead?” Feeling Qingluan suddenly stop, Song Xiaodong immediately asked.

Yet Qingluan didn’t respond; Song Xiaodong had to push her and ask, “What happened?”

“Wow, come look at this.” Qingluan’s voice trembled, seemingly having seen something incredible.

“How can I see, you’re blocking the way?” Song Xiaodong replied indignantly.

“Oh, let me move forward a bit, it’s roomier here, come over.” Qingluan crawled forward slightly.

Song Xiaodong followed suit, but Qingluan meant height, not width, he directly crawled over her, lying on top of her to look outside.

Seeing the scene ahead, Song Xiaodong too was suddenly stunned.

It was a vast cave, the colorful lights inside were mesmerizingly beautiful.

Looking closely, it was filled with naturally formed crystals; the green light on the cave walls reflecting through the crystals created this fantastical effect.

“Isn’t it beautiful?” Qingluan asked.

“Indeed, to find such a place here, it’s truly stunning; these crystals, if taken out, would fetch a hefty sum.”

“Can’t you be less materialistic? With such beauty, money is all you think about?” Qingluan turned, shooting Song Xiaodong a disdainful look.

Song Xiaodong chuckled, “Let’s not be blinded by the scenery; first, we need to ensure there’s no danger below, if we encounter more pythons here, we’ll be done for.”

Qingluan snorted, “This space is so vast, even if there were pythons, we’d manage.”

The cave was indeed expansive, three stories high, with no visible end; they might have only seen part of it.

Song Xiaodong’s perception ability could only cover limited distance; in such a large area, the perception ability was useless.

“Shall we head down?” Qingluan asked again.

“Let’s go down; staying in this small cave forever isn’t viable, not to mention starving, it’d kill me.”

Qingluan agreed, then suddenly turned to glare at Song Xiaodong, “What are you doing?”

“I…I’m not doing anything.” Song Xiaodong replied, puzzled.

Qingluan, irritated, said, “You jerk, why are you lying on top of me?”

“Come on, you told me to come over!”

“Get down, you jerk!” Qingluan snapped, had they not been cramped together, she’d have sent Song Xiaodong flying.

Song Xiaodong shrugged, “Not sure if we’ll survive here; cut the crap, I’ll check for dangers below.”

Speaking, Song Xiaodong crawled off Qingluan, descending along the cave wall.

Qingluan watched him descend, then suddenly realized she was more capable; why let him lead?

Thinking this, she felt indignant, and “swish,” she leapt from the cave, descending directly from the sky.

“My gosh, are you crazy?” Song Xiaodong shouted, following suit; unwilling for Qingluan to take risks, he activated his perception ability to scout the area.

Luckily, the ground was clear, both landed safely.

“Hmph, follow me closely, don’t wander, lest danger requires me to save you.” Qingluan arrogantly raised her chin at Song Xiaodong.

Song Xiaodong chuckled, realizing Qingluan’s competitive streak, always protective, had wounded her pride.

But watching Qingluan, Song Xiaodong’s gaze subtly shifted.
