Chapter 386 -385: To Prevent Ignorance of One’s Own Insignificance
Lei Qiu saw that Luo Ning and Luo Ranran really wanted to go to the Snake Cave and was speechless.
“Alright, if you want to go, then go.”
He planned to have someone temporarily drive the poisonous snakes away to isolate them, waiting for the two women to experience being watched by so many snakes. If they got scared and asked for help, he would then let the people out.
Soon, the boat arrived at the shore, and Lei Qiu led Luo Ning and the others onto the island.
Under that person’s encouragement, he directly took Luo Ning and Luo Ranran in a carriage to the Snake Cave.
Lei Qiu was the most favored young master of the Lei Family, and no one stopped them as they headed to the Snake Cave.
After about an hour, the carriage stopped at the entrance of the Snake Cave.
After getting off, Lei Qiu looked at the two women and said, “It’s still not too late to regret this now.”
Luo Ning and Luo Ranran immediately shook their heads, “No regrets!”
Lei Qiu: “…” It was his first time seeing people eager to go to the Snake Cave.
With a speechless tone, he said, “Alright, then go in. If you want to come out, just yell for help.”
“I’ll come to pick you up in two days.”
He was sure these two women wouldn’t wait until two days later for him to come to pick them up and would call for help before that.
This Snake Cave had been a legacy of their Lei Family for a thousand years, and usually, only some high-ranking individuals and elders would go there for cultivation.
His peers couldn’t stand being there for long and would run out quickly.
He had been inside once before and was stared at by countless pairs of cold eyes – an experience he did not want a second time.
Seeing the excitement of Luo Ning and the other, he thought to himself that it’d be funny if they didn’t end up crying.
He then ordered the guard of the Snake Cave to let Luo Ning and Luo Ranran in.
The guard of the Snake Cave saw that Lei Qiu wanted to let two beautiful young women into the Snake Cave and was speechless.
So he stepped forward and said with a smile, “Young Master, they aren’t from our Lei Family. It’s not very appropriate to let them into the Snake Cave.”
Lei Qiu waved his hand, “They are willing to go in for a visit on their own. I’ll take responsibility for anything that happens. Just go ahead and do it.”
“Right, we volunteered to go in,” Luo Ranran told the guard.
Then she asked Lei Qiu, “Do we need to write a will for you?”
Lei Qiu shook his head, “There’s no need for that, just shout if there’s any trouble.”
Seeing there was no dissuading them, the guard had no choice but to let Luo Ning and Luo Ranran through the large doors of the Snake Cave.
“Don’t wander off after you go in. If you’re afraid, just stay near the entrance; the snakes won’t come out of it.”
“If there’s danger or you want to come out, just yell. I’ll let you out.” The guard was still very courteous toward the beautiful women.
In his heart, though, he criticized the Young Master for not being more considerate and tender towards women.
Luo Ning and Luo Ranran nodded, “Okay, thanks for the trouble!”
Without hesitation, the two entered the Snake Cave, and the door opened and then closed behind them.
After they were inside, Lei Qiu told the doorkeeper, “Drive the poisonous snakes to another place, don’t hurt them.”
The guard nodded, “Yes, I’ll go play the flute and gather the snakes in the chain of caves at the very back, keeping them from getting out.”
He didn’t think the two girls would dare to venture into the deepest cave of the Snake Cave.
Lei Qiu thought for a moment then said, “I will have someone stay behind. If they want to come out, let them out quickly and inform me.”
“Okay!” The guard shared his concern about any potential problems.
Lei Qiu asked his instigator to stay behind, and the man happily agreed.
Luo Ning and Luo Ranran entered the Snake Cave and saw a huge range of mountains ahead with no end in sight.
There was a very large cave at the center with no door overhead.
They exchanged glances and started walking towards the cave.
Luo Ning discovered a thick layer of secret medicine on the ground at the entrance, which was specifically used to prevent snakes from escaping.
She said to Luo Ranran, “Step on this pale yellow powder with both feet, and you won’t be attacked by snakes.”
Luo Ranran nodded with a smile, “Okay!”
After stepping on the powder, the two entered the cave and found it was filled with snakes.
Because of the pale yellow powder on their feet, although the snakes lingered around them, none attacked them.
The deeper they went, the more snakes they encountered, with pairs of cold eyes watching them closely.
Luo Ning was not afraid; she took out the Moon Pearl that Lei Qiu had given her from her bag and kept looking around.
This was Luo Ranran’s first encounter with such a Snake Cave and though she wasn’t exactly scared, she still felt a bit creeped out.
As they continued to walk forward, they suddenly heard the sound of a flute.
“What’s that flute sound for?” asked Luo Ranran.
Luo Ning replied, “It’s a control flute sound that gathers the venomous snakes in one place, preventing them from attacking people. It’s probably played by that guard.”
“It must be Lei Qiu’s orders,” Luo Ranran remarked.
She added, “But that guy with bad intentions is bound to cause trouble.”
Luo Ning chuckled, “No matter, most of the rare and valuable species are venomous snakes; I’m actually hoping he’ll play his tricks.”
Luo Ranran also twinkled her eyes, “Right, I hope he starts causing trouble soon.”
While the two delved deeper, the Lou Family received news that Luo Ranran had taken Luo Ning to visit the Lei Family.
Although they were worried that Luo Ranran might stir up trouble with Luo Ning, thereby inciting the Lei Family’s wrath upon the Lou Family.
Still, the Lou Family Patriarch and the senior members let out a sigh of relief.
Better to cause trouble for the Lei Family.
Lately, Luo Ning had been wandering around the Lou Family for two days, conspiring with Luo Ranran to extort quite a few good things.
All were from the Lou Family elders and the older generations who lost to Luo Ning in battle.
It was not only about losing items; the key was the loss of face!
Hence the family head instructed that no one was permitted to spread word of the incident outside.
Actually, the family head felt distressed himself; he had brought out a box of top-grade vermillion to save face and asked the second elder to battle Luo Ning.
However, the second elder unexpectedly lost to Luo Ning, and the provided vermillion naturally went to her as well.
He himself only had a few boxes of such vermillion, so he was particularly distressed.
As for asking the clan elders in seclusion to come out and battle with Luo Ning, he dared not even think about it.
After the clan elders emerged, they would certainly scold the elders and him as useless for not being able to defeat a young junior.
Moreover, disturbing the clan elders without a major event was not permitted.
Therefore, the people of the Lou Family had no choice but to swallow their grievances and couldn’t wait to send away Luo Ning, the troublesome spirit.
Now that the Lei Family Head had actively approached them, they wanted to applaud and cheer.
The other families naturally heard about this as well.
Family Head Luo was troubled—why had Luo Ning run off to the Lei Family?
This 𝓬ontent is taken from freeweɓnovel.cѳm.
Due to the incident of his second son breaking his son-in-law’s leg, they had quite a few conflicts with the Lei Family and were only maintaining surface-level cordiality.
Worried that the Lei Family might harm Luo Ning, Family Head Luo considered making a trip to the Lei Family.
When Lady Luo found out, she said displeased, “Don’t go, if she’s bold enough to run off to the Lei Family, she should be prepared for someone to make a move on her.”
“That girl truly lives up to her reputation as an outsider; she’s too wild and needs someone to discipline her.”
Seeing her husband still hesitating, she added, “The Lei Family won’t dare to go too far; otherwise, they’d make an irreconcilable enemy of our Luo Family.”
She thought that Luo Ning was too wild and utterly lacking in manners, and she should be taught a lesson by the Lei Family, lest she remain ignorant of her own arrogance.
