"Alright, a gentleman doesn't argue with a lady," Ye Bing chuckled, and continued eating the chips in his hand.
Ruan Qing looked at Lanya with curiosity and asked, "Lanya, if Luo Chao isn't dead, would you be willing to marry him?"
What a question! Zhan Fei and Ye Bing were both amused and annoyed, unsure if Ruan Qing's brain was made of mush, as Lanya was still upset, and he dared to make such a cheeky comnt.
However, after hearing the question, Lanya was montarily silent. Then she softly said, "I would!"
"No, absolutely not!" All of a sudden, an excited shout ca from behind. Their hearts nearly jumped out of their chests, and they stumbled backward in fright, exclaiming, "Who!"
Zhan Fei, who was comparatively brave, turned around, and upon seeing a face with a bronze complexion like an English drama actor, he was terrified even as a man: "Ghost!"
"Don't kill us, we didn't cause your death," Ruan Qing kept his eyes tightly shut, terrified to open them.
Standing in front of them was none other than Luo Chao, who smiled and said, "What ghost, I'm not dead yet."
"Not dead?" Ye Bing exclaid repeatedly. But seeing his friendly smile, he really didn't look like a vengeful spirit, when suddenly a figure darted toward him; it was Lanya who rushed over, crying and yelling, "You bastard, were you trying to scare on purpose!"
Thinking back to monts ago when she believed Luo Chao was truly dead, Lanya's eyes were swollen from crying, and she felt indescribably wronged, her fists raining down on Luo Chao's body.
Luo Chao observed her swollen eyes, knowing he was in the wrong, and let her hit him a few tis. With her strength, it wasn't going to hurt him.
After Lanya had thrown about a dozen punches, she was panting heavily, but after venting, she felt much better. Her face still showed signs of anger: "Speak up! What exactly just happened!"
Ye Bing, Zhan Fei, and Ruan Qing looked at Luo Chao in shock. He had clearly been poisoned by a snake, his face was blackened, and they couldn't feel his breath or pulse. He seed dead beyond any doubt.
"Didn't you say you wanted to marry ? That scared back to life," Luo Chao said with a face of "grievance." Watching Luo Chao's theatrics, he looked like an aggrieved little bride, making everyone laugh loudly, Luo Chao's words were rather ruthless, given she's a campus beauty.
"You!" Lanya was furious, her whole body trembling slightly, teeth clenched tightly; she felt like biting him to death.
At this mont, Luo Chao's complexion was rosy, showing no signs of poisoning. He had indeed been poisoned earlier, yet within half an hour, his body recovered to normal; it was truly unbelievable.
Little did they know that Luo Chao had bathed in countless dicinal baths, rendering his body immune to all poisons. Though not as fantastical as seen on TV, where one drinks a cup of poison and remains unscathed, his body could gradually neutralize toxins, thus when the snake venom infiltrated his heart's blood vessels, it temporarily stopped his heartbeat, and the body's survival instinct slowly integrated the toxin, so recovering took so ti.
Luo Chao's performance once again left them astounded, never having seen such a formidable person, almost like a monster. They couldn't help but admire Lanya's foresight; if she hadn't brought Luo Chao along, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
"I'm also just hungry," Luo Chao saw a pile of food on the ground and hurriedly sat down, starting to feast, completely ignoring the angry Lanya.
Lanya clenched her fists in frustration and anger; she, a great beauty, said she'd marry him, yet he reacted like a mouse encountering a cat—was she really that unimpressive?
At this mont, Lanya thought back to when Luo Chao sucked out the poison for her; recalling that enchanting scene made her face flush. Her most intimate area had been kissed by him; how was she supposed to interact with him in the future, how could she lead him?
Zhan Fei, Ye Bing, and Ruan Qing noticed Lanya's flushed face, understanding what was on her mind, and chuckled softly. She and Luo Chao indeed seem like a pair of destined enemies.
At this point, Zhan Fei no longer dared to fancy Lanya because he lacked the courage to risk his life to save her, while Luo Chao had done so, proving that only Luo Chao was worthy of her.
"Lanya, shall we head back now, or continue forward?" The three of them were full and Ruan Qing looked at Lanya and asked.
Zhan Fei gazed at the endless mountains ahead and said, "I want to keep going forward. What do you think, Lanya?"
Lanya pondered for a mont and said, "Since Luo Chao is alright, let's continue onward. We can't just co here for nothing without discovering anything."
Ruan Qing and Ye Bing had no objections, as Luo Chao's strength gave them considerable confidence. If the venom of a bamboo pit viper couldn't kill him, with him around, even if there were dangers, surely they could pull through.
After all, Lanya wasn't made of iron, and after eating so food, she announced their departure. This ti, everyone was much more vigilant, keeping an eye out for any potential dangers as they moved forward.
During this ti, the group encountered nurous dangers, such as poisonous scorpions and spiders, but Luo Chao neutralized them one by one, destroying them promptly before contact.
Luo Chao preferred not to relive the experience; although immune to poison, being poisoned wasn't a pleasant experience, so he tried to avoid such troubles.
Surrounded by mountains, before they knew it, they had reached a mountain hollow, and at this mont, continuous wolf howls seed to echo in their ears. Ruan Qing couldn't help but shiver, stopping and said, "There are wolves here!"
No one responded to his words, and Ruan Qing looked toward the group's core leader, Luo Chao, but saw him frowning slightly, and everyone else also looked tense. What was happening?
Ruan Qing winked at Lanya, who pointed to a corner to the upper left in terror. Following her gaze, he saw nurous glowing eyes looking their way through the mist, the beastly gazes causing Ruan Qing to cover his mouth in fear, his body trembling violently!
Zhan Fei and Ye Bing swallowed hard; how could they encounter wolves? And it was a pack, with nearly 20 of them. Wild wolves were exceptionally fierce; if they beca prey, it would surely be a grim fate.
The wolf pack had already discovered them and was slowly closing in, approaching cautiously, assessing their strength, as wolves were cunning and wouldn't attack recklessly.
