Chapter 186: The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor
Chapter 186: Almost Caught in a Dilemma (5)
Xiao Hua didn't mind and happily rubbed against Mo Yan, whimpering in joy.
"Guard Xiao."
Mo Yan stood up and walked outside the cave, where she saw Xiao Shiyi guarding the entrance, which touched her slightly.
"Miss Mo, you're awake!"
Seeing Mo Yan unharmed, Xiao Shiyi also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, no longer having to endure the chilling aura emanating from his master.
"Yeah, thank you, Guard Xiao." Mo Yan smiled slightly and thanked him.
Xiao Shiyi shook his head hurriedly, standing guard in front of her, watching the intense battle between Xiao Ruiyuan and Da Bai against the python, worried that it might overpower them and rush over to abduct Mo Yan.
Mo Yan stood in place, casting her gaze toward the ongoing battle between the man, the wolf, and the python.
At this moment, Xiao Ruiyuan was cooperating seamlessly with Da Bai to attack the python.
The python was strong, and in a one-on-one fight, Da Bai wouldn't lose, but winning was difficult.
Xiao Ruiyuan was here for the python this time, so it couldn't be allowed to escape. With Da Bai's tacit consent, he joined the battle. The python, outnumbered, gradually fell into a disadvantage.
At this point, the python was covered in scratches and sword wounds, blood oozing out, staining the rocks and soil on the ground red. It emitted angry roars. Despite the attacks, it didn't dodge or evade, only fiercely retaliating against the man and the wolf.
Such a reckless counterattack put immense pressure on Xiao Ruiyuan and Da Bai, who increasingly coordinated their attacks against the python.
Although the python fought recklessly, it couldn't turn the tide, and it didn't even have a chance to escape.
As the wounds on its body multiplied, its temper grew more irritable. It kept lashing its tail on the ground, but this only worsened its injuries.
Seemingly aware that it couldn't escape death, the python suddenly looked at Mo Yan standing at the cave entrance, emitting mournful hisses and shedding tears from its large copper-bell-like eyes.
Mo Yan's heart skipped a beat, feeling somewhat uncomfortable. This creature had developed intelligence, and in her eyes, it was almost like a human. If she were in its place and her life wasn't threatened, she wouldn't be able to bring herself to kill this python.
Seeing Mo Yan's indifference, the python shed more and more tears, and its hissing grew weaker.
Even Da Bai, who had always disliked it, felt somewhat uncomfortable in this situation. Despite their neighboring territories and longstanding conflicts, they had never reached the point of killing each other. Yet, this time, it had joined forces with a human to kill this pest, which would have been unthinkable in the past.
Since this pest couldn't escape anyway and it couldn't bring itself to kill it, it would let someone else deal with it! With this thought, Da Bai suddenly stopped its attacks and ran to Mo Yan's side.
Xiao Ruiyuan only felt surprised for a moment before wielding his sword sharply and continuing to attack the python's weak points.
Even without Da Bai, the python had no strength left to escape. It gave up resisting altogether, its massive snake head slumping down as it looked in Mo Yan's direction, emitting mournful hisses and shedding tears like pearls.
Sob, it had lived for a hundred years, and just as it was about to die, it wanted to borrow some spring water from this human. It never expected to die even sooner.
Sob, it regretted it so much. It hadn't found a mate yet, hadn't had offspring from a female, it was so miserable, sob!
Why was that stinky wolf's luck so good? What did it have that was so great? Sob, if it had known, it should have killed that guy back then. Then, it would have been the one by this human's side!
The python's mournful cries felt like a nightmare to Mo Yan. They said all beings were equal, especially an intelligent python. Did they really have the right to take its life?
