When those big creatures approached, despite their fierce appearance, they showed no aggression; instead, they obediently lined up, resembling students encountering their teacher.

Uh...

Su Changfeng was naturally aware that they bore no malice, which only deepened his confusion. Previously, when they encountered the gorilla, it ran off without attacking, but its initial hostility was apparent; not to mention the later lizards.

But now, these creatures showed no intent to attack, and even seemed to behave like well-trained students.

"What does this mean?" Su Changfeng was dumbfounded.

Chen Qingqing couldn’t help but blink in disbelief, wondering if she was dreaming. They had all seen the bones scattered nearby, so why weren’t the creatures attacking them now?

"Brother Changfeng, could it be that they haven’t actually seen us?" Chen Qingqing tentatively asked.

Upon hearing this, Su Changfeng couldn’t help but laugh. Even if he were to comfort himself, he couldn’t possibly think that!

If they truly hadn’t seen them, how could they be so coincidently lined up right in front of them? It wasn’t a joke!

"Qingqing, if we manage to get out, Brother Changfeng will definitely take you to a good hospital to check your head." Su Changfeng teased.

Chen Qingqing realized what she had said and let out an awkward laugh.

At that moment, Su Changfeng suddenly widened his eyes, as the little snake was now wrapped around the gorilla’s body. Upon noticing Su Changfeng’s sight, the tiny creature flicked its red tongue as if showing off.

The scene before him left Su Changfeng dumbfounded once again.

Damn, he initially thought the little snake was the least dangerous creature in the Infinite Cave, but the current scene told him otherwise; he seemed to have completely misunderstood.

The little snake slithered down from the gorilla’s massive form, slowly approaching Su Changfeng. As it turned around and flicked its tongue at the creatures opposite, Su Changfeng noticed them trembling slightly as if startled.

Uh...

Did he see it correctly?

This tiny creature could truly scare such massive beings? With its small frame, wouldn’t it get crushed with a single step? What on earth was going on?

"Do they, do they all fear you?" Su Changfeng looked at the little snake, his expression complicated.

The tiny creature nodded its head.

Chen Qingqing’s eyes nearly bulged out upon seeing this.

Although Su Changfeng had mentioned the little creature could understand human speech, she hadn’t really believed it. But seeing is believing, and the current scene undoubtedly overturned Chen Qingqing’s understanding.

Unexpectedly, this little creature could truly understand Su Changfeng.

Su Changfeng was equally surprised, though for reasons different from Chen Qingqing’s.

He never imagined how the little snake managed to subdue all the larger creatures. Could it have other hidden abilities?

"Are they really not going to hurt us?" Su Changfeng couldn’t help but ask again.

The little snake climbed up Su Changfeng’s leg and onto his shoulder, then flicked its tongue at the creatures opposite.

In an instant, the big creatures suddenly prostrated themselves on the ground, their demeanor showing not just simple fear but an indescribable respect.

Su Changfeng grew increasingly intrigued, though he faintly sensed that the danger within the Infinite Cave seemed to have dissipated.

It all seemed to be thanks to this little snake.

Only at this moment did Su Changfeng begin to believe that the little snake wasn’t speaking nonsense. Yet, what shocked him even more was not just the snake’s ability to understand human speech but its apparent logical thinking. Its purpose in gathering these creatures was to prove its own prowess.

Taking a deep breath, despite witnessing things within the Infinite Cave that defied his understanding, the most spine-chilling to him remained the little snake on his shoulder.

It couldn’t speak, but otherwise, it behaved entirely like a human being, a creature capable of normal communication!

Nevertheless, the crisis had passed, giving Su Changfeng some relief. Turning to Chen Qingqing, he said, "Don’t worry, they won’t harm us."

Chen Qingqing dumbly nodded, glancing at the little snake lounging on Su Changfeng’s shoulder, feeling her mind go blank.

"Brother Changfeng, shall we leave?" Chen Qingqing tentatively asked.

Previously, Su Changfeng would have wanted to leave as soon as possible, but suddenly he wasn’t in such haste. For some reason, he felt no malice from the little snake, even intuitively sensing it wouldn’t harm him.

Therefore, he might as well take the opportunity to explore the Infinite Cave, possibly discovering something extraordinary.

"Little one, is there anything edible here?" Su Changfeng asked, as both he and Chen Qingqing were hungry, and finding food would be quite good.

In response, the little snake climbed down from Su Changfeng’s shoulder, leading the way. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Without hesitation, Su Changfeng followed, while Chen Qingqing tightly clung to Su Changfeng’s clothing, clearly fearful.

"Brother Changfeng, I didn’t think it could really understand human speech. Has it become a spirit?" Chen Qingqing whispered.

"Who knows? We’ll find out after we leave, but I have a hunch that this secret might lead us to a whole new world." Su Changfeng replied.

Since entering the Infinite Cave, Su Changfeng’s questions had grown increasingly numerous. He sensed that the world wasn’t as simple as it seemed, that there had to be undisclosed mysteries, evident in the creatures within the Infinite Cave.

They followed the little snake to a narrow entrance, which opened into something marvelous, the foul stench vanished, replaced instead by pure, sweet fragrance.

Inside was a large circular space, devoid of any signs of human habitation, yet it was so much better compared to other areas in the Infinite Cave.

"Brother Changfeng, I didn’t expect such a place inside the Infinite Cave, the foul stench from before has all disappeared." Chen Qingqing breathed in the fresh air greedily, showing a relaxed expression.

Su Changfeng was equally surprised by such a place inside the Infinite Cave, but nothing seemingly edible around.

"Little one, where’s the food?" Su Changfeng asked the little snake.

The little snake suddenly dove into the vine-covered wall, emerging shortly with a red fruit in its mouth.
