At this time, the bold Jiang Sheng stood up and stood in front of the team, carefully testing the waters.

After a few moments, Jiang Sheng had almost passed through the group of snakes, but the group of snakes did not attack him.

The crowd was overjoyed and walked forward with small steps, following in Jiang Sheng’s footsteps.

It was only when Yan Jiao was about to leave the snakes’ encirclement that the snakes, who had been content with their lot, suddenly went into a frenzy, hissing and spitting at them.

The originally upbeat group was suddenly scared stiff on the spot, not daring to move.

Yan Jiao’s raised foot froze in the air, not knowing if she should put it step back or go forward.

Jiang Sheng, who was standing at the front, looked at the safety zone not far away. He gritted his teeth and took another step forward.

The strange thing was that the snakes had returned to being silent and were only staring at them.

“That’s strange. He was doing fine just now. Why did the snakes suddenly go berserk?” Luo Jie, the team leader, looked at Jiang Sheng and said in confusion.

“I, I saw it. After Yan Jiao moved, the group of snakes went berserk!” Yu Yan’s voice, which was originally soft, grew louder and louder.

“Don’t talk nonsense.”

“You can eat whatever you want, but you can’t say whatever you want, Yu Yan.”

“Shut up, Yu Yan.”

“Yu Yan, I don’t think it’s a good idea to say that.”

Seeing so many people defending Yan Jiao, Yu Shu’s jealousy burned like a wildfire in the wild grass. Even her suitor, Xue Dong, stood up to defend Yan Jiao.

“If you don’t believe me, why don’t you let Yan Jiao move a little more and you’ll find out?” Yu Yan still did not give up. She looked at Yan Jiao with a determined smile and pointed a finger at her.

In an instant, everyone’s eyes were focused on Yan Jiao. Some were filled with concern, some with curiosity, and some with malice.

Yan Jiao felt a headache coming on, but since Yu Yan had already said so, it would seem like she was letting everyone down if she did not take a step forward.

Thus, under everyone’s passionate gazes, Yan Jiao took another step forward as if to prove herself.

However, the result was just as Yu Yan had said. Yan Jiao had just lifted her foot from the ground when the still snakes started becoming violent again.

“Look, look, I was right.” Yu Yan was so excited that she was like a child who had found treasure. She was so happy that she could express it in words.

“It might just be a coincidence.” Su Qing looked at Yu Yan angrily.

“How obnoxious. You’re about to die, yet you’re still acting like she’s your sister.” Yu Yan looked at Su Qing’s exasperated expression and was overjoyed.

“Yan Jiao, I’ll switch places with you. Maybe the snakes are only letting a few people leave at one time?” Qi Zhao, who was standing behind Yan Jiao, walked in front of her after he finished speaking.

However, no matter how hard they tried, as long as Yan Jiao made a move to leave, the snakes would follow her.

No matter how stupid Yan Jiao was, she could see the intention of these snakes. They wanted her to stay, and it did not matter whether others stayed or left.

“I think these snakes were attracted by her.”

Although she did not know if Yu Yan was telling the truth, Yan Jiao would be the first one to disagree if everyone was in this predicament because of her.

Hence, she gritted her teeth and said, “Everyone, you can leave first. I’ll think of a way to leave when the time comes.”

“Qi Zhao, since Yan Jiao has already said so, why are you still accompanying her? At most, we’ll escape first, and then think of a way to come back and save Yan Jiao.” Yu Yan followed up Yan Jiao’s words with her own.

“Shut up! Yu Yan, I’m warning you, even if something happens to Yan Jiao here, I will never agree to your confession, ever!” Qi Zhao was agitated by Yu Yan’s words. For the first time, Qi Zhao, who had always been gentle, lost his temper at a girl in front of his gang. “It’s impossible between you and me!”

Yu Shu looked at Qi Zhao in disbelief. However, Qi Zhao did not even spare her a glance, not even a look of disgust.

Qi Zhao looked at Yan Jiao. “Jiaojiao, if you’re not leaving, then I’m not leaving either. If we’re going to die, then we’ll die together… No, no, no. We won’t die. We’ll leave this place alive.”

Yan Jiao would be lying if she said she was not touched when she saw Qi Zhao’s worried expression.

She knew that Qi Zhao liked her, not from Su Qing’s words, but from his eyes.

As long as she was in those eyes, they would become bright and shiny, like a puppy that had seen a bone.

Yan Jiao did not hate seeing Qi Zhao like this, but she knew that it was not love between a man and a woman. It was pure admiration.

‘If, and I’m saying if, I can leave this place alive, I’ll go out with you,’ Yan Jiao thought.

He looked at Qi Zhao with a bitter smile on his face.
