Shen Nianmo threw her a quick look at Gu Xijiu and asked, "How does the snake look like?"

"The snake moves very fast, as swift as lightning . It is not safe for you to be here, Nianmo . You should leave," Gu Xijiu talked very fast, as she was desperate to send Shen Nianmo out of the tunnel .

Her spiritual level was the standard of a Mighty Immortal . Also, she often encountered many different kinds of poison all year round, so the poisons could hardly harm her anymore . She was not afraid of the snake . If bitten, she could always take pills to suppress the poison .

However, it was not the same for Shen Nianmo . He was merely a Golden Immortal . Once bitten, he would still be poisoned .

Shen Nianmo glanced at her coldly and demanded, "Call me Fuyi!"

Gu Xijiu was speechless .

"All right then . Fuyi, you should leave . Your little body will not be able to handle the bite . " Gu Xijiu persuaded him further .

'Little body?' Frustrated, Shen Nianmo could not help but grind his teeth . She would see him as a child, now that she knew about his ident.i.ty .

He refused to interact any further with her and took out a pale white pearl . He flicked the pearl to activate its luminance . Soon, the entire tunnel lit up .

Gu Xijiu was surprised to see the brightness, so she quickly took the bead in her hand . "The brightness will scare the snakes away . Don't you want to save your fellow junior apprentices anymore?"

Shen Nianmo whizzed the pearl out in the air before she managed to catch it . Hence, Gu Xijiu failed to catch the bead . Instead, her hand fell right into his palm . He took her hand firmly and rea.s.sured, "Quiet . Don't move . "

His hand was supple and warm . Her heart started to throb a little when he grabbed her hand . The palpitation only lasted for a moment, however . When she remembered that he was only a six years old child, the admiration was immediately replaced with a sense of maternal instinct .

She took her hand back . Worried that it might hurt his feelings, she had to comfort him by patting gently on the back of his hand while she said, "Don't be silly . The snakes are afraid of the light . Please take the pearl back . "

While she was talking, she also started waving her sleeves in pursuit of the pearl .

Shen Nianmo took her sleeves back and rea.s.sured her again . "Don't worry . That is a Snake Pearl that can draw the attention of any snakes . "

Snake Pearl? Did such a treasure really exist? Gu Xijiu had only heard about it . Today, she could finally see it with her own eyes . She could not help but stare at it .

The pearl did not glow with intense brightness . Instead, the luminance that it gave off was rather cold and soft . Under its radiance, every inch about the place could be clearly observed to the minutest detail .

Gu Xijiu held her breath when she heard something moving . It was the sound of an animal crawling .  The poisonous creatures that lingered around in the darkest place must not be taken lightly . Gu Xijiu was worried that Shen Nianmo might be bitten by one of the snakes, so she quickly pulled him behind her . "Don't go anywhere . Take notice of what's on your feet . "

Shen Nianmo looked at her attentively . She was a pet.i.te girl of only about 1 . 6 meters in height . He lowered his head and was immediately overwhelmed by her refres.h.i.+ng scent .

He let out a chuckle . Then, with one hand on her shoulder, he agreed delightfully . "You have to take care of me . "

Gu Xijiu could sense his warm breaths from behind . Overwhelmed by his scent, her heart started to throb a little . She could tell that Shen Nianmo's att.i.tude towards her was a bit odd, but she dismissed the thought immediately due to the urgency of the situation .
