Chapter 302 disappeared
When Marquis Wu'an saw that his son was so ignorant and reckless, the anger in his heart was instantly ignited and burned fiercely.
His face turned ashen, veins bulged on his forehead, and he rushed forward in a hurry, wanting to pull back these two ignorant guys.
However, at this moment, Chu Ning'an suddenly turned around and waved gently at Wu'an Hou. Although his face was still expressionless as usual, Wu'an Hou could sense his intention to stop him from going forward.
The two of them walked at a moderate pace, always keeping a distance from the child.
In an instant, something unexpected happened - the child jumped like a nimble deer and jumped into the rushing river without hesitation.
This sudden change shocked the people watching from a distance. Many people even screamed in fear, stood up, and rushed towards the river like a swarm of bees.
At this time, Chu Ning'an seemed extremely calm. He once again shook his hands vigorously at the panicked people, signaling them not to act rashly.
As time passed, ripples began to form on the calm surface of the river, spreading outward in circles. With a loud splash, the child suddenly leaped out of the water like a nimble fish.
Everyone was surprised to find that there was a white object in his hand. This object kept shaking and twisting in the child's hand, flashing a dazzling light under the sunlight, making it almost impossible to open people's eyes.
As soon as the child got ashore, he couldn't wait to throw the object in his hand high into the air. The unknown object drew a beautiful arc in the air and then spun rapidly like a top.
As it rotated, the air around it seemed to be stirred up, and the originally calm river surface began to become turbulent with waves splashing everywhere.
The waves in the river were getting higher and higher, as if they were about to sweep away everything.
The light emitted by the mysterious object became stronger and stronger, like a bright day, as if it was going to completely cover the entire river surface.
Just as everyone was stunned by the bizarre sight, a sharp-eyed guard in the crowd suddenly shouted, "Look! That big black snake!"
Looking in the direction of his finger, everyone saw the faint presence of an enormous black python in the churning river water...
Beyond the dazzling white light, a massive, pitch-black snake swooped down towards it like a flash of lightning. Its speed was astonishing, reaching beneath the light in the blink of an eye.
It suddenly jumped high from the water, opened its bloody mouth big enough to swallow an entire adult, and bit fiercely at the source of the white light.
At this critical moment, darkness instantly obscured the bright white light. The massive black snake, as thick as the mouth of a jar, rose like a giant dragon, snaking and circling freely in the air, its momentum soaring as if it were about to burst through the sky.
The child in white suddenly thrust himself forward, like an arrow shot from a bowstring, dashing straight towards the giant black snake at astonishing speed. His movements were dazzlingly fast, as he rapidly executed complex and intricate hand gestures, his entire body spinning around the giant black snake like a whirlwind.
I don’t know if it was an illusion created by everyone present, but the big black snake actually gave people the feeling that it was gradually shrinking.
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but rub their eyes, trying to see the scene more clearly.
However, before they could see what was happening, the small white figure and the huge black body had already become tightly entangled. Sometimes they bit each other, as if trying to devour each other completely; sometimes they seemed to be trying to merge with each other, but in the end, they always maintained a clear boundary and incompatible state.
Just as everyone was dumbfounded, stunned, suddenly, a dazzling white light burst forth, like a blazing sun in the sky. The figure, originally indistinguishable from the intertwined black and white, was instantly engulfed in the blazing white light, completely enveloped within it.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and everyone was so nervous that they didn't even dare to breathe.
Not long after, the dazzling white light gradually disappeared, and the tall and straight young man in white clothes and white hair stood steadily on the river bank like an immortal.
He has a handsome face, clear eyebrows and features, and his unique snow-white hair gives people the feeling of a fairy boy descending to the earth. He exudes an extraordinary temperament.
He turned his head slightly and glanced casually in the direction where Wu'an Hou and his group were resting. Then he walked slowly and walked straight towards where Chu Ning'an and Ru Yue were.
At this time, Marquis Wu'an had not yet recovered from the shock of the bizarre disappearance of the giant python. His heart had just been relieved, but it was hanging in the air again because of the mysterious appearance of the young man in white.
He stared intently at the figure gradually approaching his son and Ru Yue, wondering in his heart: Is this person a friend or foe? What if he were to harm his son and Ru Yue...
The more Marquis Wu'an thought about it, the more frightened he became. He could no longer suppress his inner anxiety and worry. Without hesitation, he picked up his pace and ran towards Chu Ning'an and Ru Yue like an arrow.
However, something even more unexpected happened again - just when the young man in white was about to approach Ru Yue and the others, his body suddenly disappeared out of thin air like a ghost without any warning.
This sudden change shocked everyone present, their eyes widened and their faces were filled with horror.
Chu Ning'an first looked at Ru Yue in astonishment, then he reacted, grabbed her hand, and ran towards Wu'an Hou at lightning speed.
Their faces were equally pale as paper, revealing deep fear, but no one noticed the barely perceptible glimmer of complacency lurking deep within their eyes.
"Are you okay?" Wu Anhou rushed to the front in a hurry. His eyes were wide open, his face full of anxiety, and he hurriedly asked the two people in front of him who looked like a golden boy and a jade girl.
He frowned, and even a layer of fine beads of sweat seeped out of his forehead. The concern in his words was like a bursting dam, pouring out without reservation, with no intention of concealing it at all.
After Ru Yue and Chu Ning'an stood still, their chests heaved violently and they gasped for breath, as if the shock they had just experienced was still tightly lingering on them and refused to leave for a long time.
After a long while, Chu Ning'an's originally pale face regained some color, but there was still a trace of fear in his eyes.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself, and then said in a slightly trembling voice: "That child... seemed to have caught the big snake. However... for some reason, in an instant, he disappeared without a trace!"
Just as Chu Ning'an finished speaking, a group of well-trained guards quickly arrived at the scene. However, unlike usual, this time, these guards, who were usually eloquent and decisive, became silent, their lips tightly shut.
From their slightly confused eyes and hesitant expressions, it can be seen that they have obviously witnessed the unbelievable scene just now.
Unfortunately, due to the distance, they were unable to clearly see the entire situation, and were therefore completely confused as to what had happened. This proved to be true what Chu Ning'an had said—no one knew what had happened to the child.
"Is there really a god helping me?" Ru Yue's eyes, as clear and moving as autumn water, suddenly opened wide, and a look of surprise appeared on her pretty face.
These seemingly casual words were like a flash of lightning across the night sky, instantly capturing the attention of everyone present. Just as everyone was stunned, Ru Yue suddenly seemed to realize something and quickly shut her mouth, saying no more.
But just such a simple sentence was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples and leading everyone's thoughts to the mysterious ghosts and gods.
At this time, a guard in the crowd timidly said: "My lord, perhaps God really knows that our journey is difficult and full of difficulties, so he specially sent the fairy boy to come down to earth to help us overcome the difficulties we are facing." His voice trembled slightly, and it was obvious that his heart was full of awe for this supernatural power.
However, another guard with a more open-minded personality shouted nonchalantly, "My Lord, why are you bothering so much? Didn't the prince already say that the giant snake was captured? If that's the case, then why are we still dawdling here? The most urgent thing is to cross the river and find those medicinal herbs."
This seemingly casual remark pierced everyone's deepest concerns like a sharp sword—the Empress Dowager was terminally ill, her life hanging by a thread, and she desperately hoped they could gather herbs and return to the palace to save her! In comparison, the previous discussion about whether there was divine help suddenly became insignificant.
Everyone came to their senses and no longer had time to ask questions about the strange things that had happened before.
