"Bang!"
"Ah!"
When Hu Ke'er was thrown towards the ground, she closed her eyes and shouted for help. Immediately afterwards, she suddenly heard an explosion, and then screams mixed in. At this moment, she only felt the pressure on her waist ease, but her body was still falling rapidly. It wasn't until a warm sensation came over her body that she slowly opened her eyes.
"Miss, are you okay?"
When she opened her eyes, what came into Hu Ke'er's view was a handsome young man. The young man's mouth curled up slightly, his voice was gentle, and his eyes were tender.
So handsome!
I must be getting saved by a hero, right? Right, right. This must be a hero saving the beauty!
Hu Ke'er was daydreaming as her eyes were fixed on the young man's handsome face without blinking.
"Miss? Miss? Are you okay?"
Seeing that Hu Ke'er didn't respond, the young man frowned slightly.
"Ah—I'm okay. I was just scared just now, so I'm a bit frightened."
Hu Ke'er came to her senses and quickly replied.
"Um, could you please put me down first?"
Hu Ke'er blushed and said shyly.
Just now, in order to save her, the young man was holding her in a princess - carry position. As a result, Hu Ke'er was right against the young man's firm chest, and a manly aura wafted over.
"Ah, ah, I'm sorry. I did this to save you just now. It was an emergency, so I had to. I hope the miss won't mind."
"Um, it's okay."
The young man put Hu Ke'er down and said softly. Hu Ke'er also nodded gently with a blushing face.
"You stinky cultivator, you've ruined my good deed again!"
Just as the young man put Hu Ke'er down, he heard a shrill scream. The two of them turned their heads together and saw a huge green snake in front of them.
"Miss, you can hide behind me. Leave this to me."
The young man gently reached out his hand to protect Hu Ke'er behind him, then stared at the huge green snake with a solemn expression.
Only then did Hu Ke'er have the time to take a good look at the young man. The young man was wearing a cyan - gray long gown. Judging from the young man's attire and the snake demon's clothing, this world was probably a cultivation world similar to ancient times.
"Is this green snake very powerful? Otherwise, let's just run away?"
Seeing that the green snake was as tall as three or four stories, Hu Ke'er proposed worriedly.
"It's okay. This guy has done a lot of evil and should have been dealt with long ago. Miss, you can rest assured."
After saying that, the young man made a hand seal, and the cyan long sword behind him suddenly flew up and stabbed at the huge green snake.
"So amazing! Isn't this the legendary sword - control technique?"
Seeing the cyan long sword fly out, Hu Ke'er exclaimed in surprise. Coupled with the strange attires of the snake demon and the two of them before, Hu Ke'er had a bold speculation.
Could I have time - traveled in a cheesy way?
"Come on!"
But now was not the time to think about this. Hu Ke'er nervously watched the young man fight with the green snake. It was a pity that she didn't have any weapons with her. Now she could only watch the young man fight with the green snake helplessly. If she had a gun in her hand now, she might be able to help!
Fortunately, the young man had always been suppressing the green snake. The green snake didn't seem as powerful as Hu Ke'er had imagined. If this situation continued, the young man would definitely be able to defeat the green snake.
"Roar!"
However, after the cyan long sword injured the snake demon again, the green snake roared.
"Stinky brat, let's call it a truce. You take that girl and leave. I'll also go back to my own territory. Let's stay out of each other's way!"
"Want to run? It's too late now!"
Hearing what the snake demon said, the young man slightly changed the seal in his hand, and the cyan long sword stabbed out again.
"Since you're being so aggressive, don't blame me!"
The green snake suddenly opened its mouth and spat out a green - glowing bead, which rushed towards the cyan long sword.
"Bang!"
As soon as the cyan long sword collided with the green bead, there was a huge explosion. The green light soared, and the cyan and green lights intertwined, making it impossible for people to open their eyes for a moment.
"So amazing!"
Feeling the impact of the explosion, Hu Ke'er quickly hugged a big tree beside her so as not to be blown too far away by the shock wave of the explosion. When the light faded, Hu Ke'er saw that both the young man and the green snake were still standing there.
"Bang!"
Two seconds later, the green snake fell to the ground with a thud.
"Hehe."
Seeing the green snake fall to the ground, the young man made another sword - control seal. The flying sword was sheathed, and then he put the green bead into his bosom.
"This is the demon core of a thousand - year - old snake demon. This is quite a big gain."
The young man said proudly, then turned to look at Hu Ke'er.
"Miss, there are many demons and ghosts in this deep mountain forest. You'd better not venture into the mountain alone. Where's your home? Otherwise, I'll take you back."
"Thank you, little brother, for saving my life. My home is in Shanghai City. Have you ever heard of Shanghai City, little brother?"
Hu Ke'er looked at the young man and asked softly.
"No, I haven't. Are you lost, miss? This is Mount Longhu within the territory of the Tang Kingdom."
The young man said blankly.
"Sure enough, I've time - traveled..."
Hu Ke'er had never heard of the Tang Kingdom. It seemed that she had really time - traveled.
Hu Ke'er murmured a few words, then looked up at the young man.
"By the way, what's your name, little brother?"
"My name is Chen Tianyi. I'm a cultivator on Mount Longhu. And you, miss? What's your name, and why are you alone on this mountain?"
Chen Tianyi answered Hu Ke'er while looking at her clothes and asking softly.
"Well, my name is Hu Ke'er. As for how I got on this mountain..."
Hu Ke'er hesitated. She couldn't tell Chen Tianyi that she had time - traveled, so she just made up an excuse.
"I don't know how I got here. I must have gotten lost."
"Well, I see. Otherwise, miss, let me take you out of the mountain first!"
The young man said a bit shyly.
"I still have a task and need to return to my sect. Moreover, I've never even heard of the Shanghai City you mentioned. All I can do is take you out of the mountain first."
"Well, no need."
Hu Ke'er shook her head after hearing what Chen Tianyi said.
"Otherwise, I'd better go back to your sect with you first."
"Ah?"
Chen Tianyi was stunned for a moment when he heard what Hu Ke'er said.
"I'm afraid of meeting more demons~ Please take me home when you're free, little brother!"
"Well... okay!"
Chen Tianyi hesitated for a while and then agreed.
"Then come with me."
After saying that, the long sword behind Chen Tianyi flew out. He made a handsome jump and stepped on the hovering long sword, then reached out his hand to Hu Ke'er.
"Okay!"
