Just as Lin Wu reached out toward the snake creature, it had already closed in on her, the distance between them a mere inches.
Honestly, given the snake creature's fierce and sinister appearance, drenched in blood, anyone who saw it would not doubt that it wanted to tear apart and kill everything in its sight!
Yet, in that instant, the snake creature suddenly stopped!
Supported by its thick tail, even as it leaned forward, it still loomed large, emanating an oppressive force so strong it was suffocating; Lin Wu, in contrast, was of a slender and frail build, seemingly as if with just a slight flick of its tail, the creature could take her life in an instant.
But the snake creature did nothing; it just stared at Lin Wu.
After just a few seconds, it suddenly leaned down and licked the palm of Lin Wu's hand.
Lin Wu's motion faltered.
As fate would have it, the hand she had extended was the same one she had forcefully wounded earlier to attract the snake creature's attention.
