Chapter 886: The intended recipient, accidentally obtaining the Secret Realm!
Everything happened too fast, so much so that before Su Yu could stop Chao Yan, Chao Yan had already opened the lid.
If it had just been that, it would have been fine, but the next second, the giant python suddenly became frantic.
It seemed to have fallen into some kind of strange state, because the giant python opened its mouth, saliva dripping, and lunged toward Chao Yan just like that.
The snake head approached Chao Yan rapidly, and at the same moment, the earth shook!
The secret passage began to shake violently, and quite a bit of fine wall dust fell down, hitting their eyes; everyone was very uncomfortable.
And Su Yu had been observing the giant python's movements the whole time, just for fear that it would suddenly go berserk!
In Chao Yan's eyes, only the giant python's hideous mouth remained. He had never realized so clearly that he was about to die—
Chao Yan's whole body began to tremble. He understood now; he shouldn't have touched the Xunfa Secret Realm from the very beginning!!
"Wait!" Su Yu suddenly took a step to the side, just happening to block Chao Yan, shielding him from the giant python.
The giant python's lunging speed was too fast, but after seeing Su Yu blocking in front of Chao Yan, it still instinctively retracted its fangs.
The giant python swayed its tail, waiting for Su Yu to speak.
"Don't kill him; he didn't do it on purpose."
Su Yu raised his head and said this extremely calmly.
But he only heard the giant python roar, swaying its body extremely fast, as if it didn't want to agree with him.
Su Yu sighed and glanced at Chao Yan, who was trembling uncontrollably behind him. He hadn't wanted to deal with this mess in the first place, but...
"Alright," Su Yu walked forward a few steps, his fingers covering the giant python's scales, "He didn't mean to snatch my things, don't worry."
The giant python even lowered its head, using its snake tongue to touch Su Yu's hand.
In short, it no longer had any thoughts about Chao Yan.
Chao Yan let out a sigh of relief, feeling like he had survived a disaster.
Ling Yu, however, stood to the side, her eyes wide, staring fixedly at this person and python.
Why was the giant python's attitude toward Su Yu so obedient? What exactly was Su Yu's background?
Before she could figure it out, Su Yu walked toward the treasure chest.
He looked down at the fully opened treasure chest, took out the miniature Xunfa Secret Realm, turned around to show it to the giant python, and then put it into his own storage space.
The giant python's attitude was even gentle; it didn't make any aggressive moves toward Su Yu, but instead watched him.
... Like a gatekeeper watching over its own treasure.
In fact, not only Ling Yu and the others, but even Su Yu himself didn't quite understand why he could make the giant python's attitude change three hundred and sixty degrees.
"Perhaps while you are choosing the treasure, the treasure is also choosing you." Jifeng Xunlei looked at this scene and suddenly said.
And the giant python was the guardian born from the treasure, the Xunfa Secret Realm. Perhaps from the moment Su Yu stepped onto the ancient Baiyi civilization, it had already started choosing its master.
The giant python watched Su Yu almost gently. When it sensed Su Yu's desire to get out, it nudged the treasure chest, which was large enough to hold a bed, with its head.
Su Yu understood something in an instant. He looked at the bottom of the treasure chest and indeed found a black-hole-type teleportation point inside.
"Is this how we get out?" Su Yu asked.
The giant python seemed to understand human speech; it nodded.
Su Yu didn't want to stay in this secret passage any longer. In fact, he felt that although the Xunfa Secret Realm was precious, it was also something that could easily bring about a fatal disaster.
If people really found out that the Xunfa Secret Realm was on him... perhaps Su Yu's days would never be peaceful again.
But before the three of them could get out, Su Yu suddenly walked a few steps toward the treasure chest, pressed one hand on the lid, and the treasure chest closed.
Su Yu's gaze moved slowly, stopping on Chao Yan's face for a moment: "You know what you should say and what you shouldn't, right?"
The three of them nodded in unison.
Su Yu laughed: "Only the four of us know about today's matter. The reason I saved you," Su Yu looked at Chao Yan, "is because I don't want to invite unnecessary trouble; I don't like trouble."
Chao Yan said: "Don't worry... you are my savior; I won't tell anyone."
Su Yu smiled somewhat meaningfully; after all, he never believed in such verbal promises.
Of course, the only ones who could keep a secret were the dead, but he was even more unwilling to kill the innocent indiscriminately.
"Alright, you three go first." Su Yu opened the treasure chest again.
The three exchanged glances; Ling Yu jumped down first, followed by Qian Fei, and finally Chao Yan.
In the narrow, long secret passage, only one person and one python remained.
Su Yu walked a few steps closer to the python and said.
"Did you know me before?"
The python shook its head.
"Then why did you choose me?"
The python flicked its tongue.
Su Yu stared at it for a while, then suddenly walked over and patted its lowered head.
"You are very cute. Thank you for choosing me; I will protect the Xunfa Secret Realm well."
And the previously calm giant python became restless because of this sentence.
"Alright, then I'm leaving." Su Yu finally said goodbye to the giant python. ===== CHAPTER 888 =====
