Senior Sister Is Too Weak and Cannot Take Care Of Herself (Transmigration) - Chapter 7

Tang Huan was actually terrified of pain. She had grown accustomed to a peaceful life in the modern world and had a deep-seated fear of conflict and fighting. However, after some thought, she decided that with her current cultivation, she should be more than capable of handling that nest of small spiritual snakes. What’s more, she was now in front of Qin Su, and if she failed to protect her, Ren Jingmu would definitely not let her off the hook in the future…

So, Tang Huan rushed forward, grabbed Qin Su’s hand, and pulled her away from a large boulder.

Qin Su’s hand was icy cold, feeling like a piece of cold jade. She had a unique fragrance on her body—not strong, just like her cold and aloof demeanor, yet it was incredibly refreshing. The moment Tang Huan got close to her, the haze from the alcohol in her mind instantly cleared up.

“Senior Sister, don’t be afraid…”

Liquid courage, Tang Huan took a deep breath, feeling that she should reassure Qin Su. Before she could finish her sentence, she saw the spiritual snakes emerging from the ground, and her eyes widened—

The snakes’ bodies were more than twice as large as before. Their jaws were wide open, their scales thick, and they looked at least ten times more powerful than before!

The words “I’ll protect you” got stuck in her throat. Tang Huan cleared her throat, and when she spoke again, her words had changed to “I’ll try my best to help you escape.”

Qin Su looked up, pursing her lips as she gave Tang Huan a profound glance.

But Tang Huan had no time to worry about her.

The rocky slope was already more than half destroyed. The barrier in the sky shattered, and cold rain poured down. The spiritual snakes swarmed out of their nest, raising sand and stones. The surroundings were in complete chaos.

Luckily, Wang Mengyao was safe. She stood her ground with a magical barrier around her. Unless they had a Golden Core cultivation, these snakes would not be able to break through her barrier.

Tang Huan breathed a sigh of relief. Wang Mengyao’s parents doted on her and had given her many life-saving magical treasures. They were finally proving their worth at this crucial moment.

Wang Mengyao was also looking for Tang Huan. When their eyes met, Wang Mengyao immediately shouted, “Ah Huan, come here! Hide with me!”

This was exactly what Tang Huan had in mind. If she could take Qin Su and hide inside the barrier, the snakes would definitely not be able to get to them.

As expected, when the spiritual snakes came out of their nests, they swarmed toward Qin Su. Even though the others were fighting them off, two of them still managed to bypass everyone and charge toward Qin Su.

“These snakes have been drugged and have lost their minds. Everyone, be careful!” Huang Shuang, who had been separated by the falling rocks, was about ten paces away from Tang Huan. She had seen the strangeness of the snakes and was shouting from behind a sword cultivator.

“Senior Sister, get out of the way, be careful of the snake’s bl00d.”

Tang Huan originally wanted to take Qin Su and run toward Wang Mengyao. However, for some unknown reason, whether it was because Qin Su was too scared to move or for some other reason, she was surprisingly difficult to pull along, even though she looked frail.

Tang Huan was getting anxious, but looking at Qin Su’s face, which had turned even paler from the rain, she was reminded of her own weak state during her long illness in her previous life. She couldn’t bring herself to rush her, so she hurriedly created a waterproof barrier to shield Qin Su from the rain and turned to face the two spiritual snakes.

These two snakes moved quickly. Even if they ran, they would probably still be caught. Tang Huan estimated that with her own strength, she should be able to handle two snakes. So, she took a deep breath, drew her sword, and lunged for the snakes’ most vulnerable spots.

This was Tang Huan’s first real battle.

Combat demanded a high level of physical fitness, and Tang Huan was initially flustered, her movements clumsy. She was forced back a few steps by the snakes. But after a while, she gradually got used to it and focused her mind. She eventually gained the upper hand and severed the heads of the two spiritual snakes.

Tang Huan breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the snakes’ corpses, she felt a surge of exhilaration. This feeling of having a healthy body was amazing! She had to protect her life and enjoy this healthy existence.

Afraid of scaring Qin Su, Tang Huan first wiped the bl00d off her sword before turning to look at her. At that moment, Tang Huan was startled again.

In just a short time, Qin Su’s face had become visibly much paler.

Tang Huan was genuinely scared. With Qin Su looking like this, what if Ren Jingmu thinks I did something to her?

“Thank you for saving me, Junior Sister,” Qin Su said, giving Tang Huan a weak smile. “I’m holding you back.”

“You don’t have to be so formal, Senior Sister. You’ve helped me so much in the past. It’s only right that I return the favor today.”

Tang Huan frowned, looking at Qin Su’s shaky figure. She couldn’t help but take a step closer.

This action was a lucky coincidence, because in the next moment, Qin Su lost her balance and began to fall. Tang Huan was able to catch her.

She’s so heavy!

Tang Huan had never imagined that the delicate-looking Qin Su would be so heavy. As a body-cultivating sword cultivator, Tang Huan struggled to hold her, almost falling to the ground with her.

“Junior Sister,” Qin Su’s head rested on Tang Huan’s shoulder, and Tang Huan couldn’t see her expression, but she could hear her gentle, slightly panting voice. “My legs are weak. I can’t walk. You don’t have to worry about me, you go first…”

“How could I abandon you, Senior Sister?”

Tang Huan paused for a moment, looking at the battle situation behind Qin Su. There were many sword cultivators at the banquet, and they had already killed many of the snakes. The situation was almost under control. It wouldn’t be long before all the rebellious snakes were eliminated.

Qin Su was so weak now. If Tang Huan were to leave her alone here, Ren Jingmu would probably want to kill her.

Tang Huan grumbled inwardly. Thinking of leaving a good impression on Qin Su so that she could speak up for her if she ever got into a conflict with Ren Jingmu, she hurriedly said in a flattering tone, “You have been so good to me, Senior Sister. It’s only right that I do my best to protect you. You shouldn’t say such disheartening things…”

“But—”

“No buts.” Tang Huan saw Ren Jingmu, who was in a higher cultivation than her, walking toward her with his sword. She felt a sense of relief. Straightening her back, she hugged Qin Su tightly and said firmly, “In any case, Senior Sister, don’t worry. I will do everything I can to protect you today!”

Just as Tang Huan finished speaking, Princess Bai Feng’s scream came from the front!

Princess Bai Feng was surrounded by two spiritual snakes. Her attendant had somehow moved far away from her, and she was being chased by two snakes. She was in a panic, dodging them, her face drained of all color.

Tang Huan frowned, somewhat doubting Bai Feng’s intentions. It wasn’t that she was being overly suspicious, but Bai Feng came from the Myriad Saints Hall, a notoriously wealthy sect with countless magical treasures. How could she be chased by two spiritual snakes like this?

However, Ren Jingmu stopped in his tracks.

He looked at Tang Huan and Qin Su with a worried expression, then at the disheveled Bai Feng. His face showed a look of conflict. He finally shouted at Qin Su, “Senior Sister, wait for me!” and turned to go to Bai Feng.

Tang Huan watched as Ren Jingmu stood next to Bai Feng. She didn’t know why, but she felt a dangerous aura spreading through the air. She couldn’t help but tighten her grip on her sword.

And in the next moment, her premonition came true.

More rocks and soil fell from the sky with a loud bang, and five huge spiritual snakes burst out from the rocky slope, charging directly at Tang Huan!

Bai Feng had a backup plan!

Tang Huan didn’t want to go head-to-head with these five spiritual snakes. She gritted her teeth, drew her sword, and used her sword intent to create a temporary sword formation to hinder the snakes’ attack. She instantly felt a headache coming on!

“Senior Sister Qin!”

Ren Jingmu’s anxious shout rang in her ears again. For a moment, Tang Huan truly wanted to yell at him to go back. If you really care about your beloved Senior Sister, you wouldn’t be lured away by Bai Feng’s simple trick!

Maintaining the sword formation consumed a massive amount of spiritual energy. The spiritual energy in Tang Huan’s body was rapidly draining, and her head was throbbing. She hated herself for her grand pronouncement to protect Qin Su just moments before.

She actually wanted to abandon Qin Su, but she knew that if she did, these snakes, which were already targeting Qin Su, would kill her. And Ren Jingmu, who was selfish and narrow-minded, would definitely put all the blame on Tang Huan afterward…

“Junior Sister, these snakes might not hurt me,” Qin Su’s gentle voice sounded in her ear. Even in this situation, Qin Su was still very considerate, her voice calm as she softly tried to persuade Tang Huan. “You are no match for these snakes. You should get away. Don’t worry about me…”

Tang Huan pursed her lips.

She and Qin Su were now two ants on the same boat. Tang Huan couldn’t possibly abandon her and watch her die.

But Qin Su’s words gave Tang Huan an idea…

Tang Huan gave Qin Su a deep look, pursed her lips, and made a decision. The only way to do it is this!

“Junior Sister, your cultivation is still shallow. Maintaining the sword formation will probably damage your foundation. You don’t have to do this for me…” Qin Su seemed to have accepted her fate and was still trying to convince Tang Huan.

“Senior Sister, please forgive me!” Tang Huan interrupted Qin Su.

Facing Qin Su’s stunned gaze, Tang Huan quickly used a Body-Fixing Spell on her!

“Junior Sister, you…” It was a testament to Qin Su’s composure that even after being suddenly immobilized, she only frowned slightly and softly asked Tang Huan a question.

But in the next moment, when she saw what Tang Huan was doing, even Qin Su’s composure began to waver—

Facing Qin Su’s slightly widened eyes, Tang Huan quickly took a piece of animal hide from her bag and covered Qin Su’s body. Then she reached for Qin Su’s waist—

Tang Huan undid Qin Su’s belt and took off her outer robe…

Qin Su said nothing more.

Her eyes looked profoundly at Tang Huan, light flickering in their depths. Whether it was from anger or shame, a blush appeared on Qin Su’s usually pale cheeks, making her look even more delicate than usual.

Tang Huan didn’t know why, even though this was just a temporary measure to save Qin Su, looking at Qin Su’s reaction, Tang Huan felt a strange sense of awkwardness. She didn’t dare to look at Qin Su’s fair face. She pulled the animal hide over Qin Su, who was now only in her inner garments, and then put on Qin Su’s outer robe. She removed the sword formation and quickly stepped onto her flying sword…

The powder from Bai Feng’s gift and the pastry were both on Qin Su’s outer robe. The scent of the beast hide on Qin Su’s body would also mask the smell of the powder. When Tang Huan put on Qin Su’s outer robe, the snakes, as expected, did not notice Qin Su under the animal hide.

Facing Qin Su’s slightly dimmed eyes, the spiritual snakes all chased after Tang Huan…
