Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1211: Chapter 1191: Luo Qianqian’s Trump Card Exposed

Countless thoughts flashed through Luo Qianqian’s mind, but when it came to snakes, all she could think of was the red string during the Dragon Boat Festival and the realgar wine from the Legend of Lady Bai.

But how could they possibly have such things on hand?

Snakes have a vengeful nature, once they target prey, they won’t stop until they catch it!

Even if they managed to hide, where could they possibly hide?

And even if they ran, how far could they possibly escape?

Perhaps it was the intense stares that provoked it, but the ’Death God’ slithered towards them, its speed so fast that even smaller snakes might not be able to move so quickly!

”Go!” Luo Qianqian shouted, throwing a jar of wine. Even if it wasn’t realgar wine, it should have some effect—it made her uncomfortable just smelling it.

With her movement, the ceramic jar rotated swiftly, hurtling towards the ’Death God’, in an attempt to block its path.

But this snake was not only fast but also incredibly agile, twisting bizarrely in mid-air to dodge the jar, evading Luo Qianqian’s attack, and instead, it used its thick tail to bat the jar back.

”Don’t waste it!” Yan shouted as the jar was flung back, recklessly rushing towards it, holding it tightly to his chest, and rolling on the ground a couple of times before standing up.

The jar was intact, and his face showed some relief.

”Are you a pig?” Luo Qianqian cursed softly, looking at the ’Death God’ already less than dozens of meters away from them, and glanced at Tang Tianyi with a bitter smile, ”What should we do?”

Tang Tianyi’s heart was already filled with despair, memories of being with Luo Qianqian kept flashing before his eyes. He desperately wanted to protect the girl before him but now, it seemed impossible. Would it devour them whole?

Just as he was losing hope, suddenly, a bottle of water appeared in Luo Qianqian’s hand, and she poured it on the ground.

With her left hand gripping a black small bow, her right index and middle fingers stretched straight, slowly moving over the bow, reaching the bowstring: ”Ice Stab, condense!”

The bow bent like a full moon, a golden-patterned ice arrow had already appeared on the bow.

”The eyes!” Huangfu Yihui shouted urgently upon seeing Luo Qianqian’s actions.

Luo Qianqian took a deep breath, and in the blink of an eye, the ’Death God’ was only a few meters away from them. She closed her eyes, even amid danger, she felt a strange calmness.

In a moment of life and death, the calm seek a path to survival.

Now was the moment of life and death, Luo Qianqian understood well the consequences of missing the shot. She couldn’t take risks, nor could she die—now was definitely not the time to hide her strength.

The twenty-odd wet sheets on the ground attracted no one’s attention.

The arrow left the bowstring, and Luo Qianqian kept her eyes closed.

A metallic flash glided over the snake’s head, and for a moment, everyone turned pale, except for Luo Qianqian.

The ’Death God’, seemingly enraged, charged towards Luo Qianqian, its mouth open wide, ready to strike.

All this happened in a flash. Yan and Huangfu Yihui wanted to save Luo Qianqian, but it was already too late.

Yan clung tightly to the jar in his arms, while Huangfu Yihui closed his eyes, a glint of tears visible at the corners.

Tang Tianyi instinctively tried to push Luo Qianqian aside, but she grabbed his wrist.

In such a moment, Luo Qianqian was incredibly calm, opening her eyes to wink at Tang Tianyi, showing no fear of the approaching fangs.

She extended the hand that had just gripped Tang Tianyi’s wrist, formed a fist, and said, ”Fall!”

Twenty-four daggers flew in from all directions.

She had only one chance to shoot, but there were other opportunities!

Currently, the Death God was beyond her strength to withstand. To save herself, she had to play her trump card; twenty-four daggers were the maximum she could control at one time.

In a critical moment, she decided swiftly, using the arrow as bait to anger the ’Death God,’ making it instinctively expose its weak point to her.

The ’Death God’ only sensed the pressure increasing above, causing its head to tilt uncontrollably upwards, while its wide-open mouth was still gaping at Luo Qianqian.

Pfft, pfft, pfft...

After three sounds came a countless clang of sharp weapons colliding, creating sparks.

The massive snake body froze, three daggers buried deep into its vitals.

Its eyes and upper jaw.

The long whip wrapped around Luo Qianqian and Tang Tianyi’s waists, and Huangfu Yihui gave a mighty pull, dragging them away from their spot.

The next second, the snake’s body crashed with a boom where they had just stood, twitching as it lay there.

The ground and trees around took the brunt, dust flying, crumbled ruins, and fallen trees—sunlight peeked through the collapsing forest, bringing new light into this usually sunless wood, like dawn after darkness.

Life or death was no longer within Luo Qianqian’s control. She smiled at Tang Tianyi and closed her eyes the next moment.

Exceeding her limit of control had drained her spiritual power completely.

Tang Tianyi held Luo Qianqian tightly. Having stood together all along, he naturally knew she hadn’t been touched by the venom.

And he realized that everything Luo Qianqian had done was now exposed to everyone, and neither Yan nor Huangfu Yihui were easy to fool.

But Luo Qianqian evidently wanted to keep her secrets, so what should be done?

Gripping Luo Qianqian’s sleeve tightly, Tang Tianyi showed a hint of confusion.

Killing? If Luo Qianqian demanded it, he would do it, but now she was unconscious, and these people were, for now, still their teammates. This...

Huangfu Yihui retracted his long whip, looking at Tang Tianyi: ”Is Shiqi okay? Are you alright?”

”I’m fine; Shiqi’s just exhausted.”

Actually, they hadn’t seen as much as Tang Tianyi thought. Although Luo Qianqian had planned a lot, to others, it seemed like just a fleeting moment; the missed ice arrow was followed by rapid events, leaving no time for retakes or replays.

”This thing’s vitality is tough; we should check it again later.” Yan walked over, looking at Luo Qianqian’s pale, weak face, filled with guilt. If he hadn’t insisted on retrieving the jar, perhaps things wouldn’t have been so dire. After all, animals feared fire.

Tang Tianyi sat down heavily on the ground, hugging Luo Qianqian, breathing heavily, his palms drenched in cold sweat.

The terror of the moment wasn’t fake; he truly believed they were going to die.

If Luo Qianqian hadn’t secretly prepared a backup, they might already be singing conquest in another world.

All eyes locked onto the still-struggling snake until it eventually lay motionless. Watching its movements grow weaker, their fear turned to overwhelming joy.

Huangfu Yihui exclaimed, ”We really survived, from the jaws of the century-old Death God!”
