Chapter 173 The Elementary School Student Who Made a Mistake
The totem snake ignored the man in white and instead looked down at Ye Xinxia at the entrance of the building, its forked tongue slowly flicking in and out.
After a long time, thick fog reappeared around the totem snake, completely enveloping it in white mist. Gradually, the totem snake that had been blocking the road disappeared. It did not destroy any buildings, nor did it make a sound. It left nothing behind except the thick fog surrounding the area, as if it had never been there.
Only after noticing the Totem Serpent had left did Jiang Han dare to breathe a sigh of relief. The aura emanating from the Totem Serpent was terrifying. With Jiang Han shielding her behind him, Ye Xinxia whispered, "Brother Jiang Han, was that big snake staring at us just now?"
"No way, you're definitely overthinking it." Jiang Han turned to Ye Xinxia and said with a smile after adjusting his mindset.
"Maybe I'm overthinking it. Jiang Han, do you know what that is?" Ye Xinxia asked tentatively.
"Remember the totem beast I told you about before? This is it. It's the guardian deity of the entire Song City," Jiang Han said slowly as he pushed Ye Xinxia's wheelchair along the sidewalk.
The streets were no longer as vibrant as they once were; instead, they were filled with terrified crowds and chaotic noises.
After Jiang Han and Ye Xinxia returned home, Ye Xinxia saw the official explanation from Songcheng on her phone. In the video, the official person in charge of Songcheng explained: "Hello, citizens of Songcheng, this is ***. The giant snake that appeared on Minzhu Street half an hour ago was not real. It was a newly developed Beast Shadow Array that does not have destructive power. We hope you will understand the inconvenience caused to all citizens by the use of the Beast Shadow Array."
"It was just an image. I thought demons had invaded the city. I had to write a will for nothing, it hurts so much."
"Hey buddy upstairs, did you have paper and pen with you at the time? I'm curious how you wrote your will."
"Isn't your focus a bit off? By the way, that image of the giant serpent is incredibly realistic. I'm a little curious how the official team created it. Did they use a combination of fog, light magic, and shadow magic?"
"Those snake eyes, like searchlights, and that scarlet forked tongue—who would believe that was just an image? I was inside the hotel in that skyscraper at the time. If I hadn't clearly seen the head of that towering snake, how could my pants have gotten wet?"
Over the next few nights, news about the Sky-High Serpent spread like wildfire, with various versions circulating. Some said that demons were about to attack Song City and that people should flee for their lives, while others said that the serpent was a summoned beast of a powerful mage. However, most people preferred to believe the official explanation and that the Sky-High Serpent was just an image.
Jiang Han, on the other hand, stayed at home all day to accompany Ye Xinxia in her cultivation, and occasionally cooked some delicious food for her as a reward. He was living a very comfortable life. If Tang Yue hadn't sent him a message that day asking if he was still alive, he would have forgotten about the totem snake.
"Oh dear, what does Teacher Tang Yue mean by this? Is she concerned about me?"
Jiang Han smiled and sent the message. Tang Yue replied within minutes, her tone much gentler.
"Maybe so. Where are you? I'll come see you."
When Jiang Han wasn't training in Jinlin Wasteland, he often messaged Tang Yue to keep in touch and would occasionally tease her. Their relationship grew better and better through their chats. Later, when Jiang Han went to Jinlin Wasteland for training, he temporarily stopped contacting Tang Yue. However, Tang Yue felt empty inside and gradually realized that she seemed to have fallen for her glib-tongued student.
So Tang Yue went to Shanghai to inquire about Jiang Han, only to find out that Jiang Han had disappeared after encountering a commander-level demon while training in Jinlin Wasteland. This news was a bolt from the blue for Tang Yue. She had finally made up her mind to get back together with that relationship, but who knew it would end like this? All sorts of complicated emotions filled her heart.
During the six months Jiang Han disappeared, Tang Yue tried to forget the glib-tongued brat in front of her, but the more she tried to forget, the more she couldn't. Jiang Han's image seemed to have taken root in her heart and could not be erased. She sent a message to Jiang Han that day purely with an unrealistic fantasy, but to her surprise, someone actually replied.
Jiang Han was unaware of all this. After seeing Tang Yue's message, Jiang Han replied with a smile, "I just arrived in Songcheng. Where are you? I'll come find you."
Within minutes, Tang Yue sent her location. Jiang Han changed his clothes, went downstairs, hailed a taxi, and went directly to Tang Yue's apartment. After arriving at Tang Yue's apartment, he knocked on the door twice, and Tang Yue opened the door.
When Tang Yue saw Jiang Han standing alive in front of her, tears welled up in her eyes uncontrollably. This startled Jiang Han, who quickly pulled out tissues from his pocket to wipe away Tang Yue's tears and asked with concern, "Why are you crying? Did someone make you angry?"
"It's all because of you, you brat." Tang Yue snatched a tissue from Jiang Han, wiped her tears, and turned to go inside.
Jiang Han followed her into the house and looked at Tang Yue sitting on the sofa. She was wearing a white shirt, a pencil skirt and black stockings, and she was simply stunning. But this was not the time for that. Jiang Han sat down next to Tang Yue and asked awkwardly, "You know about my trip to Jinlin Wasteland City?"
"What do you think?" Tang Yue said, glaring at Jiang Han. If it weren't for this brat, would she have acted like this?
"It was my fault this time. I didn't message you as soon as I got back, which made you worry. I apologize." Jiang Han lowered his head, looking like a schoolboy who had made a mistake.
"Seeing that you're so good at admitting your mistake, I'll... But where are you putting your hands, you brat?" Tang Yue, who was about to forgive Jiang Han because of his good attitude, suddenly felt a restless hand on her leg. She then raised her hand and slapped the hand away, turning her head to glare at Jiang Han sitting next to her.
"Hehe, I couldn't help it."
It's not Jiang Han's fault. Sitting next to Tang Yue, he could smell the fragrance emanating from her hair, plus her unique perfume. Imagine having such a beautiful, sexy, and charming woman sitting next to you—would you still honestly apologize? Probably not. So, Jiang Han's reaction is understandable.
"How many days have you been in Songcheng? Don't tell me you just arrived. Also, were you injured during the six months you disappeared?" Tang Yue said.
Why is this attitude like interrogating a criminal? But Jiang Han didn't care and said with a smile, "I haven't been here for more than a few days. I was afraid of affecting your work, so I didn't come to see you. Speaking of which, I did get a little injured during the six months I stayed in Jinlin Wasteland City. Right here, ouch~, it hurts so much. Can you take a look and see if my wound has reopened?"
As Jiang Han spoke, he pointed to his waist. Tang Yue, worried that Jiang Han's wound had really reopened, rushed over to check. But as soon as she got close, Jiang Han pinned her to the sofa and kissed her alluring red lips before she could react. Realizing she had been tricked, Tang Yue punched Jiang Han several times, but after only a few punches, her two jade-like arms wrapped around Jiang Han's neck, passionately responding to her feelings.
Upon noticing Jiang Han's restless hands, Tang Yue quickly pushed him away and said, "Not here, let's go to the room."
Jiang Han looked at Tang Yue, whose face was flushed, and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll listen to Teacher Tang Yue."
Amid Tang Yue's gasp, Jiang Han scooped her up in his arms and carried her to the room. With a loud 'bang' as the door slammed shut, [the text then abruptly shifts to a completely unrelated topic:] The signal lag indicates that everyone isn't interested in this description, so the word count here is automatically omitted.
