"I really didn't expect your snake-catching skills to be so strong," Shen Mubai said with admiration in his voice. "Even though we didn't need the tools I brought, it shows you respected the task. Unlike someone who came empty-handed, useless and obstructive."
Qiao Ran looked disdainfully at Wen Shimo ahead of them, "Don't be smug, the Red Buddha Snake is the king of poisonous snakes, and its population is extremely scarce. Catching it won't be easy."
Indeed, the Red Buddha Snake was alarmingly rare, but Snake Mountain was a place full of mysteries, with endless possibilities.
Who knows? She might just successfully catch the Red Buddha Snake.
Qiao Ran didn't retort to Wen Shimo's comments because she wouldn't speak boastfully about something she wasn't sure about.
"You've carried so many poisonous snakes, they must be heavy. Let me help carry them for you," Shen Mubai offered considerately.
"It's not heavy, I can carry it myself," Qiao Ran refused.
