The bite was so sudden that they all didn't have time to react.
Yue Rujing screamed in agony, letting go of the poison snake and clutching his chest.
Gu Youyou was startled, glanced at Yue Rujing, and hurried to capture the fleeing snake.
"Wait for me, don't be afraid, I'm here, you won't die."
It was too dangerous if the creature got away; it had just been milked for venom and was likely agitated. If it bit someone else, that would be terrible.
Fortunately, the snake was still dazed and didn't get out of the courtyard before Gu Youyou caught it and tossed it back into the cage.
Yue Rujing, lying on the ground, was covered in a layer of frost, curled up in agony.
"You... you said this snake was docile. I... those who are bitten by it, no one... no one survives. Am I going to die... you killed me... you woman... are... our nemesis..."
That was before it felt threatened, alright.
