Mo Wenjie looked in the direction of Huang Ling'er's finger, and saw a "Jiao"! The Jiao is a legendary creature described as a large snake with dragon head and scales. Unlike traditional snakes, the Jiao is believed to have extremely powerful abilities, and can fly and control natural disasters such as floods!
Huang Ling'er saw the Jiao, and hurriedly said: Wenjie! Shouldn't this Jiao be in the fourth heaven of desire? How did it end up here? Isn't it Yang Jie's guardian spirit? It should be guarding Yang Jie in the fourth heaven, not running here. Is Yang Jie freed now? If so, then the Jiao should have gone with him too. Why did it run here instead? This is a bit odd. Could it be that the guards weren't paying attention and let the Jiao sneak out? It's hard to say. But this Jiao is indeed not to be trifled with. Its strength shouldn't be below yours!
Mo Wenjie nodded after Huang Ling'er said that. "The Jiao's strength is superior to mine. We should only have the strength for a fair fight, but it's impossible to win against it. From all aspects of it, I can't see its full strength. This means its strength is far above mine, and I am definitely not its match. Even thinking of a mutual destruction scenario is out of the question!"
Upon hearing Mo Wenjie's words, Huang Ling'er's face turned pale immediately. "What should we do? If you are not its match, then we are in great danger today! We can't escape no matter how hard we try, and going back to call for help is impossible now. Moreover, even if we could go back, my father is not its match either. Since you are not its match, how could my father possibly be its match? We might really have to die here today!" Asking Mo Wenjie: "Wenjie, we just started dating and I don't want to die like this!"
Mo Wenjie looked at Huang Ling'er and shook his head, "Don't be afraid of me. Even though I can't beat it, it won't be easy for it to kill me. Just stay behind me, and it won't be able to hurt you either. If it doesn't want to hurt me, that might be the best choice for it. But if it really wants to hurt me, it might suffer heavy injuries!"
Huang Ling'er looked at Mo Wenjie in confusion, unable to understand why he would say such things. The discrepancy in strength between Mo Wenjie and the Jiao was significant, so why would he dare to speak so confidently? How could he believe that the Jiao couldn't harm him, or that if it tried to harm him, it might suffer serious injuries? What did he mean by that? Where did he get such confidence? She really didn't understand where Mo Wenjie got the courage to confront the Jiao like this. She didn't know what his trump card was. She hoped that Wenjie wouldn't risk their lives. If there was no certainty, they should run together; she just couldn't see how he could beat the Jiao!
Mo Wenjie patted her arm and said, "Don't be afraid. Although I can't beat it, it's not that easy for it to harm us both. Just watch from behind me, and it won't be able to hurt you. I can guarantee that. No matter when, I can ensure that you will not be harmed. That is my promise to you. You can rest assured; I always keep my promises! "
Huang Ling'er looked at Mo Wenjie in disbelief, "Wenjie, I know you are sincere about your feelings for me. But your strength is not its match. How can it not harm you? This level of confidence is too excessive. You don't have the same strength as it. It's very easy for it to hurt you, and what can you guarantee to protect us from harm? Are we going to die together today? I'm willing to die with you!"
Mo Wenjie gently patted her back, "Don't worry, none of us will die today. It really wouldn't dare do anything to us. You don't know my methods, but I do. So rest assured, as long as I'm here, it can't do anything to me no matter how powerful it is. Just wait and see; let's find out if it can actually harm us both."
Huang Ling'er listened to Mo Wenjie's words, but she still felt uneasy. She didn't know what methods he had, and how could she be sure that he wouldn't get hurt? So, she was very worried. She hoped that Mo Wenjie really had some means, so that they might be able to escape together. She prayed silently, hoping that any gods would protect them and ensure their safety. No matter what happened today, she promised to burn incense and pray daily for them, wishing them limitless power!
Mo Wenjie looked at Huang Ling'er muttering to herself and not understanding what she was saying, he felt a bit of laughter. "Ling'er, what are you doing? Why are you muttering to yourself? I can't understand what you're saying. What are you doing?" He had already told her not to be afraid, not to be afraid. "I have means to protect myself. Although I cannot explain exactly what they are, I can assure you that we will not have any issues today. You can rest assured of that! When I first ascended, while training in the secret realm on the outskirts of Yunduo City, there were many beastly creatures stronger than me. However, when they attempted to devour me for real, for some reason, they all suffered severe injuries. The stronger their power, the more severe their injuries; some even died directly from the injuries sustained. I myself cannot explain what is protecting me but I can guarantee that we will be fine today. If this Jiao does not wish to harm us, then we will both remain unharmed. However, if it decides to attack us instead, then it is most likely that it will suffer severe injuries while we remain unscathed; this is something you can rest assured of. This is a conclusion I reached after experiencing numerous risks in the past; I can only say that we will not suffer any harm but cannot explain exactly why this is the case!"
Huang Ling'er helplessly shook her head. "Well, things have come to this. No matter what I say now will not change anything. As long as I'm with you, I'm not afraid of anything. Even if it means death, it doesn't matter to me. To die together with the one I love is a kind of happiness. Whether we can survive or not, it doesn't matter to me anymore!"
Mo Wenjie looked at Huang Ling'er's determined expression and suddenly burst into laughter. "Ling'er, do you have so little confidence in me? Do you think I am that useless person in your eyes? Or do you think I am a talkative person who exaggerates? When I say that we will be fine, we will definitely be fine. Why don't you believe me? Making it seem like our lives depend on each other. Don't be so pessimistic, okay? I tell you, it can't harm us. As long as it dares to attack us, it will definitely die. If it only wants to bully us, we will only get injured; there will be no real problem. What are you afraid of? I've told you that I will stand in front of you and protect you from any danger. Don't be scared!"
Huang Ling'er shook her head.
