Chapter 21: I Will Take Responsibility

Su Jinyue squatted down and stretched out her hand to scoop a handful of lake water. The water was crystal clear and bone-chillingly cold. “Little Elf, do you think that that thing could be in the lake?”

“There’s such a possibility. I can only sense that it’s nearby but cannot determine its specific location.”

Su Jinyue nodded briefly and focused her attention on the lake in front of her. She wanted to see what exactly was under the lake.

The lake water slowly turned transparent, and Su Jinyue realized that as her vision delved deeper, there was not even a single fish in the lake.

While she was still puzzling over this, a huge black object appeared in her line of sight.?What is that?

Su Jinyue carefully studied the black object. After seeing what it was, her heart hammered violently against her chest. It was actually an anaconda that was about five or six meters long. Most anacondas inhabited South America and were as thick as the torso of an adult male. Once a person got entangled by it, there would not be any possibility of surviving.

Zhan Yihan scanned the surroundings cautiously. The moment they arrived here, he had already sensed a cold and dangerous aura. Just when he was thinking about whether to leave with Su Jinyue, he saw Su Jinyue stretching out her hand to grab his hand.

“Let’s leave quickly. It’s very dangerous here.” Su Jinyue looked petrified as she pulled Zhan Yihan along and ran away. Although she really wanted to obtain the thing with spiritual energy, it should only be under the premise that it was a safe situation. If she died, it would be useless even if she obtained that thing.

“Splash!” The sound of something breaking through the water rang out and the waves in the lake splattered everywhere. A huge figure broke through the water and emerged from the lake.

“Hiss!” The anaconda stuck out its forked tongue. Twisting its ginormous body, it swiftly and aggressively attacked Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan’s backs.?Since these two humans dared to enter my territory, they can forget about escaping.

“Jinyue, move to one side.” Zhan Yihan drew out his dagger and turned to face the attacking anaconda. Last year, when he had gone to the Amazon rainforest, he had also encountered an anaconda, which was even longer than the one in front of him right now.

Zhan Yihan charged towards the anaconda, when he was less than one meter away from the anaconda, he swiftly dodged to the side, avoiding the anaconda’s attack. At the same time, he struck with all his might using the dagger in his hand.

“Hisss!” The anaconda hissed in fury as Zhan Yihan’s dagger pierced one of its eyes and blood gushed out.

Without any hesitation, Zhan Yihan pulled out the dagger and slammed it towards the anaconda’s other eye.

The anaconda seemed to have read Zhan Yihan’s mind and quickly turned its head to the side, dodging Zhan Yihan’s dagger. At the same time, its massive tail brutally swept towards Zhan Yihan.?This hateful human being. I must devour him.

Su Jinyue worriedly looked at Zhan Yihan, who was fighting with the anaconda. She dared not mutter a single sound, for fear that it would affect Zhan Yihan. Right now, she truly regretted coming here. It did not matter if she died, but she could not harm Yihan.?What should I do now? Is there any way to help Yihan?

Spotting the shovel, used for digging up herbs, in the basket on the ground, Su Jinyue stooped down to pick it up.

Zhan Yihan couldn’t dodge in time and was struck by the anaconda’s tail. He was flung several meters away and he spurted out a mouthful of blood.

“Yihan!” Su Jinyue’s expression changed drastically and she hurried forward. She couldn’t care less anymore. Right now, the only thought in her mind was,?I can’t let Yihan die.

The anaconda’s eye that had not been pierced was gleaming with an ominous green glow. With its mouth wide open and its forked tongue sticking out, once again, its tail swept towards Zhan Yihan, who was on the ground.

Su Jinyue quickly stepped forward and hurled the shovel in her hand at the anaconda. ‘I can’t let Yihan die. I absolutely can’t!’

After being struck by the shovel, the anaconda roared angrily and swept its tail towards Su Jinyue.

“Crash!” Struck by the anaconda’s tail, Su Jinyue flew out like a kite with a broken string. She crashed onto the ground hard and fainted.

“Jinyue!” Seeing the anaconda send Su Jinyue flying, Zhan Yihan felt like his heart was being ripped apart. He climbed to his feet and launched an attack at the anaconda.?I’m going to kill that thing! Tear it to shreds!

Su Jinyue felt that someone was feeding her water and she blearily opened her eyes. When she saw that the person in front of her was Zhan Yihan, she smiled weakly.?It’s wonderful that he’s still alive!

“Drink some more.” Zhan Yihan placed the bottle at Su Jinyue’s lips. When she fainted after being struck by the anaconda, he was really petrified. He felt as if someone had cut off a piece of his heart all of a sudden and the tremendous pain made it difficult for him to breathe. Fortunately, she was fine.

Su Jinyue opened her mouth obediently and drank two sips from the bottle before shaking her head. “Did you kill it?” Her entire body was aching now, as if it was falling apart.

Zhan Yihan nodded. He lowered his head and affectionately kissed Su Jinyue on the forehead. “You silly lass!” He had almost lost her just now. It was only at that time that he realized that his feelings for her were definitely not that towards a younger sister. Rather, it was another type of love, the kind of love which men had towards women.?I wonder if she likes me too?

Su Jinyue blinked and stared at Zhan Yihan in surprise. “You kissed me?”

“I’ll take responsibility.” Zhan Yihan’s lips turned up slightly.?Not only have I kissed her, but I’ve also carried her on my back and held her hand. Who else can she marry but me?

Su Jinyue stretched out her hand to touch Zhan Yihan’s face, “Am I dreaming?”?Previously, he still kept on saying that he treats me like a younger sister. Why is it that after waking up, he’s kissing me and talking about taking responsibility?

“Silly lass!” Zhan Yihan rubbed Su Jinyue’s hair dotingly. She looks so cute like that!?I really want to kiss her again, but I’m scared that I’ll frighten her.

“You’re the silly one!” Su Jinyue rolled her eyes at Zhan Yihan, her heart was filled with sweetness.?If this is a dream, I hope that I won’t wake up.

“How do you feel now?” Zhan Yihan asked. Although he had killed that anaconda, there was still danger around here, especially when darkness set in.

“I feel much better. What about you?” Looking at Zhan Yihan, she realised that his clothes were covered with blood. Her face turned pale immediately and she said in a quivering voice, “I’ll go and fetch you some medicine. Wait for a while.” As she said this, she began getting up.

Zhan Yihan held down Su Jinyue, who was about to get up and said, “I’m fine, don’t worry.” He had carried his Sect’s healing medicine on him. He had already taken one just now and also fed her one.

“But you’re bleeding a lot.” Staring at the blood on Zhan Yihan’s clothes, Su Jinyue’s tears could not help but fall.?It was all because of me. If it weren’t for me, how could he be injured so badly and nearly lose his life.

“Don’t cry. I’m not in pain. It really doesn’t hurt.” Seeing Su Jinyue’s tears, Zhan Yihan was a little flustered. He had never coaxed a girl before, so he really did not know how to do it.

“Let me take a look at your injury.” Su Jinyue reached her hand out and pulled Zhan Yihan’s clothes open. There, she saw a long wound on his chest, and her tears immediately flowed down more aggressively.

“I’m fine, don’t cry. Be good!” Zhan Yihan wrapped Su Jinyue in his arms and gently wiped her tears away.. Seeing her in tears really hurt more than his injury.
