The threat of the cyan light didn't last long; the snakes quickly regrouped and came back.

The middle-aged man threw out another yellow talisman, and with a flash of cyan light, the snakes retreated again.

The middle-aged man glanced at Luo Qian and Chi Hao, and said, "You two should get out of here. With your abilities, you can't deal with this swarm of snakes!"

"Uncle, it's our duty!"

Luo Qian shook her head, her eyes firm.

"Suit yourself."

The middle-aged man said indifferently, then walked forward.

"Uncle, who are you? If you're not rescue personnel, please leave… it's too dangerous inside!"

Luo Qian herself didn't sound confident when she said this. She herself had been saved by this uncle; she had no face to tell him it was dangerous.

"My daughter is still up there. I can't leave."

The uncle looked up at the teaching building. He was none other than Gu Zhendong.

Inside classroom two of the third-year high school class, the students were in complete chaos.

They had closed the doors and windows tightly, blocking all the gaps, doing everything they could.

But they also knew that this was just waiting for death.

The snake swarm was densely packed, and the window glass was completely blocked by their bodies, blotting out the sky and the sun, leaving not even a sliver of space.

Fortunately, they had no intelligence and didn't know to smash the glass with their heads, otherwise they would have broken in long ago.

But as the snake swarm continued to pour in, and the number continued to increase, it was only a matter of time before the doors and windows were pushed open.

The students broke down, crying, shouting, making a lot of noise, and some were even so scared that they wet themselves.

The air was not circulating, causing the classroom to be filled with a strange smell.

And the class teacher, who should have been the mainstay for the students, was cowering under the desk, trembling and waiting for death.

The class monitor, Cui Zhiyong, was doing well, trying his best to maintain order and constantly encouraging everyone.

However, it had little effect.

Cui Zhiyong shook his head helplessly, and finally fixed his gaze on a corner.

He could ignore the others, but he couldn't ignore this girl.

This was a girl as pure as an ice lotus in his mind.

"Yutong, don't be afraid, I'm here for everything. No matter what happens, I won't leave you!"

Cui Zhiyong came to Gu Yutong's desk, lowered his voice, and said with affected affection.

"I'm not afraid."

Gu Yutong chuckled. "Besides, how are you going to take care of me when the snake swarm rushes in later?"

Gu Yutong was not only unafraid, but also a little expectant.

Because she knew that her Shifu had returned yesterday.

And if something like this happened, her Shifu would definitely not ignore her.

"This, I... Anyway, I just won't leave you…"

Cui Zhiyong's face turned red, and he stammered.

Just then, with a bang, the classroom door finally gave way and was pushed open by the snake swarm.

The densely packed snake swarm rushed in like a flood!

"Ah—"

"Ah—"

The screams rose one after another, almost shattering people's eardrums.

Cui Zhiyong, who had just vowed to protect Gu Yutong, was now so scared that he peed his pants, hugged the table leg, and kicked his feet wildly, shouting louder than anyone else!

"Alas, still too young…"

Gu Yutong shook her head helplessly and stood up with a sigh.

Everyone was so frightened that they had lost their minds, and no one noticed her actions at all.

Gu Yutong knew that the situation was critical and she could no longer hide her abilities. She pinched her fingers to form a spell and chanted words.

Then she flicked her finger, and a white light shot out from her fingertip.

Wherever the white light reached, the snakes immediately froze, and a layer of frost covered the body of each snake.

Gu Yutong flicked her fingers repeatedly, launching several more white lights in succession. Soon, there was a layer of frozen snakes on the floor of the entire classroom.

At this time, the temperature in the room was already below zero, but the students were not shivering as much as before.

They stared at Gu Yutong in astonishment, hardly daring to believe their eyes.

And Cui Zhiyong couldn't believe that the ice goddess in his mind could actually emit cold air…

They naturally wouldn't know that Gu Yutong, who usually attended classes with them and spent day and night with them, was actually a Jindan stage (Golden Core stage)術法 (Shu Fa - magic/spell) master.

If she revealed this identity, even the mayor of a city would have to treat her with utmost respect.

And it took Gu Yutong less than half a year to go from an ordinary person to cultivating a Jindan, which of course was related to the *Su Nü Xin Jing* (Plain Girl Heart Sutra) that Chen Xiao gave her.

But more importantly, it was because she possessed the rare *Ming Gong* (Nether Palace) physique, a rare cultivation genius that was only seen once in a hundred years.

Although a layer of snakes had been frozen, more snakes were still pouring in. Fortunately, Gu Yutong was already at the Jindan stage, and had enough spiritual energy in her body, so she froze them as they came.

But this was not a long-term solution. Just then, she heard a very familiar voice from outside.

"Tongtong, Tongtong!"

"Where are you, Tongtong!"

It's Dad!

Gu Yutong's eyes lit up, and she shouted loudly, "Dad, I'm here!"

While shouting, she rushed outside.

Outside, Gu Zhendong heard his daughter's voice and was rushing over quickly.

Luo Qian and Chi Hao followed closely behind him. They were grateful to Gu Zhendong for clearing the way with yellow talismans, otherwise they really didn't know how they would have gotten in.

"Tongtong, are you okay!"

Finally, the father and daughter reunited, and Gu Zhendong asked with a concerned expression.

"What could happen to me…"

As she spoke, Gu Yutong flicked her finger again, freezing a small, blue snake that was pouncing towards Luo Qian.

Gu Zhendong slapped his forehead: "That's right, my daughter is already at the Jindan stage, I forgot!"

He was so concerned that he forgot that his daughter's cultivation was already above his, and he didn't need to worry about her at all.

At this time, Luo Qian suddenly noticed a sensitive issue: "That… Uncle, I feel like this group of snakes seems to be coming for your daughter."

The snake swarm was surging in this direction from all directions. It seemed that their target was Gu Yutong alone.

Gu Zhendong had already noticed the problem that Luo Qian had discovered, and he also knew why this was happening.

"What should come will come sooner or later. You can't hide from it. Daughter, let's go outside and meet him! Don't implicate innocent classmates."

Gu Yutong nodded heavily: "I know, Dad, let's go out now!"

After saying that, the father and daughter walked outside.

But Luo Qian and Chi Hao looked confused.

"Uncle, wait for me, what's going on?"

Luo Qian asked loudly.

"Girl, don't follow us. Leave this place to you!"

Gu Zhendong said without looking back.

"But, without you, we…"

Luo Qian wanted to say that without you, we can't do it.

But before she could finish her words, she suddenly realized that after the snakes discovered Gu Yutong, they no longer saw anyone else.

They swam past her and Chi Hao as if they were crossing a road in the early morning, completely oblivious to their presence…
