After being read by the mind, my apprentice wanted to rebel

He Yun's broad figure appeared particularly calm at this moment. He was well aware of the danger of this operation, but as the elder among those entering the forest, he had to shoulder the responsibility of protecting the safety of others.

Lin Xian'er stood quietly by, like a serene fairy, her eyes revealing a hint of determination and focus. Her mind was already focused on the upcoming operation, ensuring the system remained perceptive to Zheng Yuanchang's movements. Their goal this time was to save lives, not to blindly take risks.

After some preparation, everyone was finally ready to go. Lin Xian'er and her four companions, watched by the others with both anticipation and a touch of worry, swiftly stepped into the mysterious and deep forest like a swift shadow.

"Third senior brother, I can locate the current location of the head senior brother very accurately. Come with me quickly." As soon as she stepped into this mysterious forest, Lin Xian'er was filled with anxiety. She didn't want to waste her precious time in this forest full of unknowns, especially since the system had repeatedly emphasized to her that there were all kinds of extremely dangerous crises hidden in this forest.

He Yun nodded slightly, and without saying a word, the four of them, led by Lin Xian'er, rushed towards where Zheng Yuanchang was like an arrow.

However, after only moving forward for a short ten minutes, a small black shadow suddenly rushed out from the front like a ghost, and its speed was so fast that people were caught off guard.

Everyone was startled and reacted quickly, dodging to the sides and narrowly avoiding the sudden attack.

After everyone had steady themselves, Lin Xian'er took a closer look and suddenly gasped. A chill instantly surged into her heart. The goose bumps all over her body seemed to be activated instantly, and they all stood up suddenly. She was so scared that she trembled and said with trembling lips: "Let's go... Let's go quickly... Let's go quickly." Oh my God, she hated these slippery snakes the most. They were really scary. The cold breath made her shudder.

Sensing Lin Xian'er's extreme fear, He Yun, Xie Qijun and Bao Xiaowen surrounded her without hesitation, like guardian angels, trying their best to protect her safety, fearing that she would come to any harm.

Soon, as if gushing endlessly from the darkness of the earth, swarms of snakes crept in like a black wave. The densely packed scene resembled a terrifying carpet woven from countless wriggling black threads, making every hair on one's body stand on end, as if every single one was trembling in terror.

Lin Xian'er, already terrified of snakes, was utterly terrified by the sudden sight. She was shaky and nearly fainted. In this critical moment, she immediately activated the system and created a strong and powerful shield, enveloping the four of them tightly, attempting to ward off the terrifying snakes.

However, what they never expected was that the group of snakes seemed to have noticed their defensive measures and began to slowly surround them along the protective shield, as if a group of hungry beasts were slowly approaching their prey. The atmosphere full of threats and oppression instantly spread.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh", Lin Xian'er's sharp and shrill scream pierced the eardrums like a devil's sound and went straight into everyone's ears. The volume was so loud that it almost deafened Xie Qijun, who was closest to her.

Xie Qijun had no choice but to use all his strength to force Lin Xian'er's mouth shut, which continued to scream. When he saw her pitiful, tearful eyes, an inexplicable tenderness suddenly surged in his heart, and he couldn't help but whispered comfortingly, "Master, it's okay, it's okay, these things will leave soon. If it really doesn't work, I'll go out and destroy them now."

He Yun on the side was also extremely anxious and felt extremely distressed about what happened to Lin Xian'er. He immediately stepped forward and said loudly, "Little Junior Sister, don't be afraid, Third Senior Brother will burn these things now." His firm tone revealed an unquestionable momentum, as if declaring their determination to those hateful snakes.

His eyes flashed with an angry light that seemed to be about to spit out flames. The light was like two sharp swords. Anyone who dared to scare his junior sister, whether it was a human or an animal, would be sent to see the gloomy and terrifying King of Hell!

He Yun was like an enraged lion, unable to contain his rage any longer. He frantically hurled one powerful magical weapon after another. Blazing tongues of fire, like enraged dragons, soared into the air, their unstoppable force instantly reducing all the snakes clinging to the protective shield to ash. However, to his surprise, a few moments later, swarms of snakes, like black lightning, swiftly and neatly surrounded the shield once again, completely blocking all escape.

After encountering such difficulties several times in a row, He Yun's heart gradually became a little irritable. He kept pacing on the spot, his hands clenched into fists, his eyes revealing deep helplessness and anxiety.

"Third Master, this is completely useless," Xie Qijun said solemnly after a careful observation. He noticed that the snakes outside seemed to be moving in unison, each movement as if carefully rehearsed. This clearly indicated that there was an extremely intelligent and powerful leader behind them, secretly directing them. If they didn't eliminate this leader first, they would have no chance of escaping.

So... what should they do? He Yun scratched his head in frustration, feeling anxious and helpless. He carefully observed his surroundings, trying to find a clue, but the mysterious leader snake seemed to possess the ability to become invisible, never to be seen. It was as if it was the master of this darkness, ready to strike a fatal blow at any moment. If they couldn't find a solution quickly to make these troublesome snakes retreat, they would be trapped here forever like a trapped bird, unable to escape. At this moment, He Yun was even more worried about the safety of his head brother. He didn't know what kind of predicament his brother was in, and whether he would be safe.

Bao Xiaowen stood silently at the back, his brow furrowed, lost in thought. After a moment, a thought suddenly struck him, and a glint flashed in his eyes. He slowly pulled a potion from his storage bag. The potion exuded a faint, strange aroma, as if it contained some kind of magical power.
