"This guy..."
Song Yutang clutched the branches and leaves at the treetop, her eyes intently fixed on the Human-faced Giant Snake that was coiled up and clinging to the dormitory building.
She had originally thought that even if she encountered the female-faced snake once again, she would be able to triumph just as her Master had, which is why she held the confidence to complete the task—
But as it turned out, she really did encounter it, and it seemed to be a mature version of the snake, significantly stronger than before.
However...
Song Yutang thought back to the scene where she discharged electricity in the park, with thunder rolling and terrestrial fires spreading; even she herself was startled by that spectacle.
"If I can gain the upper hand..."
Master had said, whether to fight with all one's might depends on one's strength; spiritual sense is particularly useful at such times.
