Chapter 93: The Secret in the Depths of the Earth

  That night, Cheng Zihan boarded the train to Lingshan, and on the way, Han Dong told him everything that had happened.

  Something big happened in Lingnan. The Duan family was exterminated overnight, and Duan Hengshan died tragically. Duan Yitong was also seriously injured and is currently hospitalized, still unconscious.

  If it wasn't for Han Dong's timely rescue, she would have also died in that disaster.

  The people who did it were arranged by the Lingnan government, but they all disappeared after killing, and since Han Dong didn't get a clear look at their faces at the time, it's also very difficult to find them now.

  Duan Hengshan is dead, and the Duan family was framed for tax evasion, their entire property was confiscated. The once prosperous Lingnan Duan family thus perished.

  Cheng Zihan couldn't help but think that if she wasn't lucky enough to have met Han Yi, who helped and took care of her from behind the scenes, and also had the famous Han Xuanzhao as a backer, then today's outcome for the Duan family would probably be hers instead.

  When the two arrived at Lingshan People's Hospital, Duan Yitong was still being rescued. From the moment he was sent to the hospital, it was already his third rescue. The hospital had issued a critical illness notice, but the Duan family no longer existed. Some branches were also far abroad and would not ask about domestic affairs at all. So Duan Yitong was miserably alone in the hospital, with not even one person by his side to take care of him.

  "Get to the bottom of it right away, no matter what means are used, we must find out who is behind this!" As soon as they arrived at the hospital and learned about Duan Yitong's current situation from the doctor, Cheng Ziheng immediately gave orders for Han Dong to lead an investigation into the matter.

  Duan Yitong doesn't care what you do to her, but she is the most important friend in her life. Anyone who dares to move her will not get along with her. Whoever opposes her will not have a good ending!

  "Yes." Han Dong responded and immediately went down to arrange related matters.

  Duan Yitong is still being rescued, if this time can't hold on, I'm afraid he will die.

  Cheng Zihan's heart was racing with anxiety as she paced back and forth outside the emergency room door.

  The lights in the emergency room finally went out, and the doctor walked out of it, wiping away a cold sweat.

  Cheng Zihan hastily went up and anxiously pulled the doctor, "Doctor, how is my friend?"

  The doctor looked at Cheng Zihan's young age and frowned, "Don't you have any adults in your family? The patient's condition is very serious, some procedures need a guardian to sign and confirm before they can be done."

  "What's wrong with you people? Do you still want a guardian at this time? Shouldn't saving lives be the priority?! I am her guardian! I will take all the consequences! You operate on her immediately!" Cheng Zihan listened to the doctor's words, and got angry, staring at the doctor and shouting out.

  Duan Yitong's life or death is uncertain, and now she is dying of urgency. Moreover, all the people in Duan's family have died, where can they find a guardian to sign for Duan Yitong?

  The doctor was taken aback, and then wanted to explain the specific situation to Cheng Zihan, about some hospital procedures, but before he could speak, Cheng Zihan waved his hand decisively and made a judgment: "Alright! You don't need to waste words, just tell me what her chances of recovery are here!"

  "Less than one percent." The doctor stared at Cheng Zihang in a daze, clearly an eight-year-old child, but with a presence that shocked him.

  "One percent? What's the reason, is it because your technology isn't good enough or your equipment isn't good enough?" Cheng Zihan frowned and asked the doctor in front of her coldly.

  "The technology at home, no matter where you go, the result is the same. Our medical equipment is not advanced enough, and many operations cannot be performed. The patient now has intracranial hemorrhage, and the hematoma is still expanding, requiring craniotomy surgery, but the risk of surgery is very high, almost zero success rate! Unless we can invite Professor Seff, the most famous neurosurgeon from abroad, otherwise, any domestic neurosurgery expert will give you the same answer." The doctor was startled by Cheng Zihans gaze and hastily replied honestly.

  "Save her? I know, no matter what method you use, you must save her life. If anything happens to her, I'll tear down your hospital!" Cheng Zihan coldly threw out a sentence and turned around to leave.

  Sief is a German brain specialist who never leaves his own country. All those who want to seek medical treatment from him have to personally go to invite him.

  However, Duan Yitong's current situation is not suitable for long-distance travel, so there is no choice but to invite Jiang Zesheng from Germany.

  It's not easy to get a visa for going abroad nowadays, but Cheng Zihan is after all someone with connections, and it would be easy to get it done by pulling some strings.

  She first went to Duan's house to check the situation, and found that the whole house had been burned down. The police had set up a cordon outside, and there were still people guarding the entrance, not allowing anyone to approach.

  Cheng Zihan just glanced at him lightly and turned around to leave.

  The other party was ruthless enough to destroy all the evidence, and if Han Dong hadn't rescued Duan Yitong, she would also be one of the ashes here.

  Who is so heartless? Want to hurt an eight-year-old child like this?

  Or did they originally have some cooperation between them, and finally because of the disagreement, the other party killed to silence, wanting to swallow all the benefits alone?

  Cheng Zihan still thinks the last one is more reliable.

  After leaving Duan's house, she first found a place to call Han Yi and asked him to arrange the trip abroad.

  Han Yi's actions were swift and everything was settled on the same day.

  The next morning, the two of them boarded a plane bound for Germany together.

  Serge is from Munich in Germany and has always lived locally.

  The plane landed at Munich Airport, and as soon as Zhang Zihuan got off the plane, he felt the difference in climate between Germany and China.

  The big snow fluttered and danced, everything in sight was a vast expanse of white. As soon as they got off the plane, Han Yi immediately put the down jacket he had prepared on Cheng Zihans body.

  Han's family also has people here, so when they left the airport, someone came to pick up Cheng Zihan and Han Yi.

  Serge's residence was quite far from the airport. After driving for four hours in the cold wind, they finally arrived at Serge's farmhouse in Munich.

  "Does he live here?" Looking at the lush green farm in front of him, Cheng Zihang was visibly startled.

  She thought Serf should be in a big hospital, if not, at least living in a castle-like building.

  Serf's name is very loud, one of his surgeries is called the sky price, countless people come from all over the world to find him personally operating, it is said that he is technically skilled, after going through his hands, even patients who have been sentenced to death can recover and heal, this is also the reason why countless people come to him for treatment.

  Rumors have it that Sifu's personality is eccentric and he doesn't easily receive guests. It's harder to see him than to see the country's president.

  Unexpectedly, his place of residence is quite good.

  The car stopped at the entrance, and two people got out of the car. At the entrance, two giant sheepdogs were staring at Cheng Zihan and Han Yi with their mouths open, drooling.

  Cheng Zihan looked inside and didn't see anyone, guessing that the person was probably in the wooden house inside.

  The farm is beautiful, with large grape trellises, and at this time the grape leaves have all fallen off, leaving only the bare frames, covered with white snow. The surrounding area of the farm is planted with pine trees, also covered with white snow. In the snowy ground, you can still see small sparrows foraging for food, and when they see people, they are not afraid, but continue to jump happily in the snowy ground.

  Cheng Zihan turned around and glanced at Han Yi, seeing that Han Yi was pursing his lips, but didn't know what he was thinking.

  The two big dogs at the door were very enthusiastic and almost pounced over to give the two a big kiss.

  Cheng Zihan glared at them fiercely, and the two dogs immediately sat down obediently, wagging their tails and not daring to be presumptuous again.

  "We're going in." Cheng Zihan reached out and took Han Yi's hand, and the two of them entered the farm together.

  Because of the rush and oversight, Cheng Zihan didn't buy snow boots. Wearing sneakers to walk in the snowy ground was really torturous. Both feet were frozen numb, almost unable to feel anything.

  The two of them slowly walked towards a wooden house not far away.

  The wooden house is very simple, just like the simple wooden houses built by hunters in the mountains.

  The door was closed and you could hear the sound of burning firewood coming from inside.

  Cheng Zihan stretched out her hand and pushed the door, which wasn't locked, and it opened directly.

  She turned back in surprise and glanced at Han Yi, only to see that Han Yi's eyes were also filled with astonishment.

  What kind of medicine is this eccentric famous doctor selling in his gourd?

  Two people walked into the house with doubts.

  As I entered the house, a warm air rushed towards me, making the person who had just walked in from the wind and snow feel warm all over.

  The door slowly closed by itself, and the old wooden door creaked, which sounded particularly terrifying in this quiet atmosphere.

  Cheng Zihan turned around and took a look at the door, furrowing her brow.

  The room was very clean and simply furnished. The fire in the fireplace crackled and popped, burning brightly.

  In front of the fireplace there was a large marble table with all sorts of food on it, looking as if they were welcoming guests from afar.

  "Is anyone there?" Han Yi looked around but didn't see anyone inside the house, and couldn't help but call out.

  The response was still silence, a dead silence, except for the sound of burning firewood, there was no other sound.

  "Nobody?" Han Yi looked at Cheng Zihan and said uncertainly.

  Cheng Zihan smiled and said, "No, there is someone."

  She could feel a third person's presence in the house besides the two of them.

  They just didn't know where the other party was hiding, because that breath was very fleeting, sometimes behind them, sometimes above their heads, and sometimes under their feet.

  The other party should not be an ordinary person, but also a person with some special abilities.

  Han Yi listened to Cheng Zihan's words and began to move freely inside the house.

  Cheng Zihan frowned, looking at the floor under his feet. Every time Han Yi took a step forward, a circle of red light would appear on the floor, but it would quickly disappear. If you didn't look closely, you wouldn't notice it at all.

  "This looks like some sort of formation mechanism, but mechanisms have always been something that only the great Chinese masters know how to use. Sefu is a foreigner, how would he know about these things?"

  Cheng Zihan suddenly felt a strange sensation, and the air around her seemed to change. She was startled and hastily shouted at Han Yi, "Han Yi, be careful!"

  However, it was too late, and suddenly the floor under Han Yi's feet cracked open, and he fell through.

  Cheng Zihan took three steps and made two strides forward, but still missed a step, and could only watch as Han Yi fell down.

  Below was a dark and mysterious place, and it was unclear what kind of danger lay ahead. Cheng Zihan wouldn't let Han Yi face the danger alone, so without much hesitation, he also jumped down.

  A figure slowly emerged from the air, with black hair and eyes, skin as white as snow, wearing a white coat, with lips that were red to the point of being frightening, looking exactly like a vampire in a movie. He stared blankly at the black hole on the ground, muttering to himself: "In this world, there are actually people who don't abandon their companions?"

  Cheng Zihan only felt his body constantly falling down, as if it would never end.

  Surrounding her were icy stone walls, waves of chill seeping out from the stone walls on both sides, making Cheng Zihans whole body cold and constantly trembling.

  Gradually, it seems to be almost at the bottom, and a warmth that appears to come from the center of the earth can be felt. A faint red glow can be seen flickering vaguely.

  It wasn't until about an hour later that Cheng Zihan finally fell heavily to the ground.

  "I'm going!" The massive gravity made Cheng Zihan feel like her whole body was falling apart, if it wasn't for the fact that she had been through so many things and her body had become much stronger, she would have probably been smashed into a meat pie by now.

  "Zi Han." A weak voice came from next door.

  Cheng Zihan adapted to the dim light underground and finally saw Han Yi beside him under the faint red glow, his complexion was poor, he should have been seriously injured.

  Cheng Zihan hastily crawled over, grabbed Han Yi's hand and took his pulse.

  Han Yi's pulse was in disarray, and there were still faint traces of blood at the corner of his mouth.

  It seems that all internal organs have suffered severe injuries.

  "Hey Yee, are you okay?" Cheng Zihan helped Han Yi up with some concern.

  "I'm fine." Han Yi smiled weakly and patted the back of Cheng Zihans hand.

  Cheng Zihan looked around and found herself in a deep underground place, but she had no idea where exactly it was.

  This Siruf is definitely not simple, I don't know why he designed such a trap to harm them, what does he want to do?

  "Han Yi, stay here and don't run around. I'll go take a look at what this place is and see if there's a way to leave." Cheng Zihan looked at Han Yi's pale face and couldn't bear to have him continue following her, so she left him in his original spot.

  Han Yi nodded, coughed twice, and spat out another mouthful of fresh blood.

  Cheng Zihan furrowed her brow, thought for a moment, and then took out the Tian Can Ling liquid from her bosom and gave some to Han Yi. This was the blood of the Tian Can, different from what she usually used to plant flowers and grass. Although it didn't have much effect on Han Yi's injuries, it could at least help him hold on a bit longer, until they left this accursed place.

  After drinking the Tian Can Ling liquid, Han Yi's complexion indeed improved a lot.

  Cheng Zihan put down his luggage and rested in place, while he himself began to look around.

  A faint red glow appeared out of nowhere, and the ground here seemed to be much warmer than above. The warmth was coming from beneath the earth, and Cheng Zihang guessed that they were underground, with magma or something similar beneath their feet, which is why it felt so warm.

  It's still unclear what Nasir wants to do, and whether it's possible to get out of here. Cheng Zihan is walking cautiously underground, the surrounding stone walls are very neat, and it can be seen that they were dug out by humans. Cheng Zihan tries to reach out to touch the wall, but finds that the temperature of the wall is frighteningly high.

  Oh no! Han Yi was just leaning against the wall to rest, and the temperature of this wall is so high, isn't he going to be in danger?

  Cheng Zihan realized this and immediately started walking back. However, soon she discovered a problem - she couldn't find her way back to where she had just left Han Yi.

  The surrounding stone walls seemed to have moved positions, no matter how she walked, she always couldn't return to the original position where she first came down.

  This time is really bad.

  "Hey, Han Yi! Hey, Han Yi!" Cheng Zihan tried to call out loudly, but except for her own echo, she didn't get any response.

  Han Yi is now injured, and the two have lost their way again. The underground environment is eerie, and there may still be many dangers. As for Cheng Zihan's current situation, protecting herself is absolutely no problem, but if something unexpected happens to Han Yi, what can she do?

  Damn Sefer! If I go back, he's definitely going down!

  Cheng Zihan gritted her teeth and continued to explore her surroundings.

  But the surroundings all seem to be exactly the same, and after walking for half a day, I ended up back where I started.

  It seems like this is still an underground labyrinth.

  What kind of person is this Sifu?

  Cheng Zihan furrowed his brow and continued walking forward. Suddenly, a scorching gust of wind blew past his ear, Cheng Zihan frowned, but his body reacted faster than his brain, directly dodging to the left, barely avoiding the hot wind. Cheng Zihan looked up and saw a fire snake as thick as three fingers flying in mid-air.

  Having missed one strike, the fire snake turned back and launched another attack at Cheng Ziheng.

  The fire snake's attack was simple and straightforward, making it easy for Cheng Ziheng to dodge. However, dodging like this wasn't a long-term solution. Cheng Ziheng narrowed his eyes, staring at the fire snake that kept charging forward, then suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed the snake's weak point, slamming it into the wall. He quickly followed up with a kick, stomping on the snake's weak point several times before finally lifting his foot.

  The fire snake has lost its breath, this creature is strange but its strength is very weak, similar to the snakes on the ground.

  After killing the fire snake, Cheng Zihan continued to move forward, but suddenly a chill rose up in his heart. Countless rustling sounds came from all directions, and the temperature around him grew hotter and hotter. Cheng Zihan even saw that the walls on both sides had turned red.

  She furrowed her brow and looked ahead in puzzlement.

  Innumerable fire snakes twisted their bodies and crawled towards Cheng Zihans direction, the number of which made Cheng Zi Han's scalp feel numb for a moment.

  There are too many fire snakes here, densely packed like a flame tide, and it's impossible to know exactly how many snakes there are, but judging from the looks of it, there should be tens of billions of them.

  "What the...! Cheng Zihan, what have you done?!" The rising temperature made the snake, a cold-blooded animal that was hibernating, feel extremely uncomfortable. He woke up from his slumber and upon seeing the scene in front of him, he too was shocked and couldn't help but curse out loud.

  Cheng Zihan was also somewhat surprised. She shook her head and said, "I don't know, I just killed one, and then a whole group came."

  Cheng Zihan pointed at the dead snake not far away and said to She Geng.

  She Huai glared back, his eyes flashing with anger, "Can't you give me a heads up before killing snakes in the future? Don't just go around killing them randomly!"

  Cheng Zihan looked at She Geng with confusion. Just now, that snake attacked her, she was just defending herself and killing the snake, what's wrong with that?

  "What's wrong with this snake?" Cheng Zihan asked, looking at Snake Geng's angry expression.

  "Of course there's a problem! A huge problem! Extremely problematic! Do you know what you just killed? Do you know?" Snake Geng was furious, almost biting someone.

  Cheng Zihan still didn't understand, staring at She Geng.

  The snake hissed and stared at Cheng Zihang, gritting his teeth and saying: "Just now you killed the Snake King! Do you understand what the Snake King is? It's the leader of these guys. You've killed their leader, they won't let you off easily!"

  Cheng Zihan suddenly realized that the weak snake from just now was actually the leader of the fire snakes.

  "How did I know they would be so weak, and die with just a casual kick?" Cheng Zihan said weakly, not daring to look at She Geng anymore.

  She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, wishing she could slap Cheng Ziheng to death. This girl didn't even know that her current strength was incredibly powerful, just one kick earlier had landed right on the snake's weak point, of course with just one kick she trampled it to death!

  It's not a matter of being weak or not, okay? Even if someone is extremely strong, if they're attacked at their weak point, they'll still die, okay?

  She was speechless at Cheng Zihans behavior, but this is not the time to educate her, lets hurry up and deal with the fire snake army first.

  The snake blocked the way in front of Cheng Zihan, and he didn't know what bad luck he had encountered to meet Cheng Zihan. If only he knew, he should have followed Cheng Zixi honestly and not followed this troublemaker.

  Cheng Zihan secretly smiled, actually with her ability, it wouldn't be difficult to eliminate the giant flame snake army in front of her. However, being trapped underground and not knowing Han Yi's situation, she naturally wanted to conserve her strength. Who knows what kind of perverted enemies she might encounter later? If she exhausted herself now, when encountering a powerful enemy again, she would be finished, probably dying miserably!

  At this time, the most effective way to save strength is the key. She Keng is resting every day anyway, and it's rare to have a chance to perform, so don't miss it.

  Cheng Zihan retreated to one side and watched as She Geng battled against the great army of Huo She.

  She Guang's strength was really powerful, he transformed into his true form, his massive body directly blocked in front of Cheng Zihan, he carefully protected Cheng Zihan at the center of his body, the thick skin was like a protective wall, countless fire snakes rushed up, making a series of clanging sounds, but did not cause him any harm.

  The snake's skin was incredibly resilient, even an atomic bomb wouldn't be able to harm him much. The fire snakes' attacks were like tickling him. However, the fire snakes had scorching temperatures on their bodies, which made him feel suffocated. Cheng Ziheng could already smell a burning meaty odor.

  It seems that one thing can subdue another, the snake's skin is strong enough to withstand atomic bombs and shells, but it's afraid of fire, which is probably its only weakness.

  The army of fire snakes seemed to be endless, wave after wave surged forward, the front ones died and the back ones continued to come up, one after another, making people's hearts tremble with fear.

  The snake finally couldn't stand the terrible temperature, it coiled up Cheng Zihang, swung its tail and swept away the flames behind, then quickly ran forward.

  She Geng's speed was very fast, and he even bumped into many fire snakes along the way, but his eyebrows didn't wrinkle at all, and he rushed straight past.

  It was strange that after rushing out, those fire snakes didn't chase over again, and Cheng Zihang could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

  Breaking out of the encirclement of the Fire Serpent Army, Snake Jing's body was charred in many places, looking pitiful, with large patches of black skin still smoking.

  Cheng Zihan took out the Celestial Silkworm Liquid and sprinkled some on him, temporarily relieving his pain.

  The snake stared at Cheng Ziheng with a fierce gaze, scolding loudly: "Cheng Ziheng you big fool, can't you be more careful? What are you doing running to the depths of this place for no reason? Do you know what else is here? If something big and unstoppable comes out, we'll all be done for!"

  Cheng Zihan knew she was in the wrong, so she didn't refute. After She Geng finished venting, she sighed and said: "Yi Tong was seriously injured, I came to find someone to save her, but ended up falling into a trap. Now both I and Han Yi have fallen down, and he doesn't even know where he is."

  The snake looked at her, suddenly unsure of what to say, and transformed back into a miniature snake shape, coiling around Cheng Zihan's wrist, hissing and puffing air from its nostrils.

  Cheng Zihan didn't say a word either, now the top priority is to find Han Yi first, and then think of a way to leave this place.

  Han Yi's side of the situation was much better than Cheng Zihan's. He quietly rested in place, unaffected by the commotion on Cheng Zihan's side. For some reason, after coming down, he felt much more comfortable all over. Initially, due to falling from a high altitude, his body had many injuries, but since taking the Celestial Silkworm Liquid and resting for a while, he could feel his physical injuries recovering at a visible rate, and he felt his entire body filled with strength.

  He stood up from the ground, Han Yi looked at his fist with some surprise, he could feel that his body contained a very strong and terrible energy, probably after coming here, his body had been subjected to some traction, triggering the physique of the Extreme Yang Body.

  He clenched his fist and punched it heavily on the wall.

  The wall began to show a circle of spider web-like cracks from where his fist had landed, the cracks spreading at a terrifying speed visible to the naked eye. Finally, the entire ground was shaking, and a terrible aura awakened from deep within the earth, enveloping the entire ground in it.

  "Oh no! How did that guy wake up?" Sefu had been sitting cross-legged in the house, feeling the movement underground. He suddenly opened his eyes and a look of terror appeared on his face, as if even he himself felt unexpected.

  Looking at the dark hole in front of him, he furrowed his brow, hesitated for a moment, and ultimately took no action.

  Han Yi felt that the ground under his feet was fluctuating in a strange arc, and his body also swayed with it.

  "Oh no! A big one has been awakened, it's very dangerous here, Cheng Zihang, come quickly, I'll take you away from here first!" This commotion also startled Snake Geng, who had originally returned to recover his energy, but was frightened by this sudden phenomenon, and hastily flew up, quickly transforming into his true form, letting Cheng Zihang climb on his back.

  "No, I won't leave like this! I'll go get Hanyi and bring him back, I won't abandon him!" Cheng Zihan shook her head firmly, telling her to abandon Hanyi and leave on her own, no matter what she said, she couldn't do it.

  She was almost driven to vomiting blood by Cheng Ziheng, "What kind of time is this? Can't those damned principles of yours be put aside for now? If we don't leave now, none of us will have a chance!"

  Cheng Zihan still had a resolute face, "If I can't find Han Yi, I'd rather die here than leave!"

  She almost wanted to bite Cheng Zihuan to death and drag her body back, but he knew that if anything happened to Cheng Zihuan, the one at home would not let him go, so in the end he compromised.

  "I owe you, I don't know what sin I committed in my past life. Being beaten unconscious for thousands of years is enough, now I still have to stay with you and die together? Alas, who made me promise your sister to protect you? Come on, I'll take you to find Han Yi!" Snake Geng looked at Cheng Zihuan, seeing the determination in her eyes, this woman was still as stubborn as she was in her past life. Once a decision was made, even nine oxen couldn't change it. If not for saving the person she cared about most back then, he wouldn't have been ambushed and killed. Unexpectedly, this life after rebirth, his attitude towards friends remained the same.

  But She Geng is very envious of those who are considered friends by Cheng Zihang, because they can get such a person to go through fire and water for themselves, it's really a very happy thing.

  Cheng Zihan looked at She Geng with a mixture of trust and doubt, but when she saw the sincerity in his eyes, she felt reassured and climbed onto his body, hugging him tightly.

  The snake flew up, feeling the faint breath of Han Yi in the air, and rushed towards his direction.

  "What on earth happened?!" Han Yi felt that he had been transported to a strange place by that weird fluctuation, where there were no dark walls and nothing could be seen.

  This is a fiery red world, with surging magma visible all around, bubbles of magma rising and bursting, and threads of black gas drifting out from them. The entire space is filled with strange black gas, making people feel uncomfortable.

  "Are you the one who awakened me from my slumber?" A low voice echoed from the depths of the earth.

  Han Yi lowered his head and looked down at the ground, but all he saw was red magma.

  "Who are you?" Han Yi asked cautiously, furrowing his brow.

  "Hmm!" A cold hum, the magma in front of him suddenly churned up, a wall of flames appeared in front of Han Yi, and the terrifying temperature made Han Yi frown again.

  The wall gradually dissipated, and a nine-headed giant red snake appeared in front of Han Yi.

  Looking at the monster in front of him, Han Yi's alarm bell rang in his heart, and he subconsciously took a step back.

  A giant red snake stretched out its scarlet snake tongue, nine heads came down to probe, and the green eyes stared at Han Yi expressionlessly.

  "It was originally a body of extreme yang, no wonder." After looking at Han Yi for a while, the big snake suddenly muttered to itself.

  "What exactly are you?" Han Yi still warily looked at the massive creature in front of him and asked in a cold tone.

  The big snake smiled, with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes. "It's been many years since anyone has come here, and it's been just as long since anyone has asked me what I am. It's truly a nostalgic feeling."

  The giant snake muttered to itself, then lowered its head and looked at Han Yi again. "Young man, you are the first human being to come here in so many years. Tell me, how is the world outside now? Are my good friends still there?"

  "Who is your good friend." Han Yi seemed to have understood the giant snake's words in front of him, and it seems that he should also be one of the ancient creatures left behind like Mang Cang and others, who had been sleeping underground for many years.

  It must be because I came here and unexpectedly activated the Extreme Yang Body, then that one punch awakened the great snake that was sleeping under the ground.

  "Haha, right, how would I ask you this question? You're a human, how could you possibly know who my old friend is. Alright, now let me answer your question, I am the Ancient Heavenly Snake, the Nine-Underworld Fire Python, and have been sleeping here for many years already. The flesh of a Yang Body person, it's also been many years since I've eaten it, thinking about it, it's really nostalgic." The Nine-Underworld Fire Python said, once again stretching out its scarlet snake tongue, all nine heads gathering together, the green eyes coldly staring at Han Yi.

  Han Yi raised his head and coldly stared at the giant snake in front of him, the Nine Underworld Fire Python. He seemed to have read about it in an ancient book, this creature was bloodthirsty and cruel, even eating its own kind, it could be said that it was one of the most brutal and ruthless animals since ancient times.

  They especially like to eat human flesh, especially the meat of people with special physical conditions. However, in ancient books, it is explained that because snakes are extremely yin objects, extremely yang and strong things are their nemesis.

  People with extremely yang physiques are natural-born arch-nemesis of snakes. If a snake wants to eat them, it's just a pipe dream.

  Han Yi let out a cold laugh. If it were in the past, he might have still worried that he would be eaten away, but now that the bloodline of the Extreme Yang Body had been activated, his body possessed endless abilities, and he didn't worry about this at all.

  With the physical absolute suppression, the big snake in front of him could be considered as a pet. Having the ancient heavenly snake as a pet would make it much more convenient to protect Cheng Zihuan in the future.

  She Geng brought Cheng Zihang and arrived at the location where Han Yi was, then stopped.

  Cheng Zihan looked around in surprise, this should be the place where she just parted with Han Yi, she remembered that there was a huge stone over there, but where was Han Yi? Why wasn't he here?

  Cheng Zihan jumped down from the back of She Geng, carefully searching around and finally fixing her gaze on that terrifying crack on the wall.

  That mark should have been made by someone with great strength, but Han Yi's body is so weak, how could he possibly throw a punch with such great power?

  Could it be that someone just came here? Won't Han Yi be killed by the other party?

  Just as Cheng Zihuan was worried, a terrible vibration suddenly came from the ground, and the rumbling sound shook Cheng Zihuan's eardrum.

  "Cheng Zihuan, whether you agree or not, I must take you away from here! The Jiuyou Huomang is not an ordinary creature, they are bloodthirsty and cruel, even to their own kind. Your friend is probably in grave danger, I promised Subei to keep you safe, I won't betray her trust. You can hate me, but I must take you away from here!"

  She Geng said, directly wrapping around Cheng Zihang and flying upwards.

  "Snake Geng, let me down quickly! Let go of me! I won't abandon Han Yi!" Cheng Zihan struggled desperately, but couldn't withstand Snake Geng's terrifying strength, and could only roar loudly. She opened her mouth wide and bit down hard on Snake Geng's body.

  But She Miao's body was immune even to atomic bombs, so how could that little strength of hers possibly harm She Miao?

  In Cheng Zihans struggle, She Keng still took her flying out from the depths of the ground.

  When one man and a snake came up from underground, Sef was also startled.

  "Snake Geng! Why did you bring me up here! Han Yi is still down there, no way, I have to go down and save him!" Cheng Zihan had just landed, but wanted to go back down to rescue someone. Snake Geng directly coiled into a ball, blocking the entrance, not letting her go down.

  "I won't let you go down unless I die first. Otherwise, I couldn't bear to watch you go to your death!" She Geng's attitude was also unusually resolute.

  Although they are both snakes, the Jiuyou Huomang is an ancient heavenly snake with dragon blood, and he is just the ancestor of snakes. He has nothing to do with the dragon tribe at all, and at most can be considered a subordinate group of the dragon tribe. If he were to fight the Jiuyou Huomang to the death, even if there was only one possibility out of a hundred, it would still be him who loses!

  Cheng Zihan has a completely different meaning for Cheng Zixi. Naturally, She Geng would not watch Cheng Zihan die in front of him.

  As for Han Yi, he didn't have deep feelings for him, so naturally he wouldn't care about his life or death.

  Cheng Zihan gritted her teeth and stared coldly at She Geng, "Are you going to let me down or not?!"

  She didn't say a word and closed her eyes very decisively, the meaning was already very clear. Even if she died, she wouldn't let Cheng Zihang go.

  "Fine!" Cheng Zihan said through gritted teeth.

  Looking at the snakes swirling in front of her, she smiled coldly and slowly closed her eyes. The blood-red pupils on her forehead reappeared, and as soon as they did, the entire wooden house was shattered by a terrifying wave of energy. Sef was terrified as he stared at the little girl in front of him, and when he saw the pupils on Cheng Zihans forehead, he was completely stunned.

  She Geng also looked at Cheng Zihuan with a serious face, it seems that Cheng Zihuan had risked everything to go and save Han Yi.

  Seff, who had been ignored all along, finally couldn't help but speak up, "You two, before you start fighting, can you listen to what I have to say?"

  Cheng Zihan's eyes turned icy as he gazed at Sefu behind him, his gaze carrying a chilling murderous intent that made Sefu involuntarily shiver.

  He saw it, Cheng Zihuan really had murderous intentions, and her ability, wanting to kill him, was an easy task.

  But no matter what, he had to say this.

  "What is being suppressed underground is the ancient heavenly serpent, Jiuyou Huomeng. I am a member of the Hulal tribe, and for generations, we have been guarding this seal here, for hundreds of years, until now, when finally, someone who can subdue the Jiuyou Huomeng has arrived. You don't need to worry, your friend will be fine, he is the destined one to save our Hulal tribe." Sefu looked at Cheng Zihang with a firm tone.

  Cheng Zihan frowned, coldly staring at Seff. This guy had set a trap, causing her and Han Yi to fall to the depths of the earth. Now Han Yi's life or death was uncertain, were his words trustworthy?

  If he was telling a lie, she wouldn't go down to save Han Yi. If something unexpected happened to Han Yi, she would never be at peace for the rest of her life. But if what he said was true, and she rashly went down, would she ruin the great opportunity that belonged to Han Yi?

  Han Yi's body is not good, how can he possibly be the one to subdue the Jiu You Huo Man? Even She Geng said that it was an unbeatable and terrifying opponent. Han Yi doesn't even have basic kung fu skills, let alone being able to conquer the Jiu You Huo Man!

  Cheng Zihan thought for a moment and made a decisive decision. Even if what Sef said was true, she couldn't just watch Han Yi fall into danger without going to rescue him!

  From acquaintance to now, it has always been Han Yi who helped herself, how could she possibly abandon Han Yi at this critical moment?

  "Snake Geng, I'll ask you one more time, are you going to let me or not!" Cheng Zihan shifted his gaze back from Sefu's body and coldly stared at Snake Geng in front of him. His demonic pupils had already shrouded Snake Geng's body. As long as he persisted and didn't back down, Cheng Zihan would immediately use his demonic pupils to capture him.

  She looked at Cheng Ziheng with a determined gaze, then finally let out a sigh and stepped aside.

  "Cheng Zihan, promise me, no matter what happens, you can't die!" She Yan suddenly said as he looked at Cheng Zihan's resolute back.

  Cheng Zihan turned around and looked at him with a firm gaze, then jumped down without hesitation.
