Along the way, Qin Shou skillfully avoided the territories of several troublesome monsters, keeping his pace almost as fast as the others.
Four hours later, Qin Shou and Lin Xiaomei rode the greedy snake back to the ruins of the Old Era city once more.
"This is... Qin Shou, there are quite a few horror-level monsters here. Are we really going to take the shortcut through here?" Lin Xiaomei hesitated.
Qin Shou nodded, "That's right, as long as we're careful. Horror-level monsters aren't cabbages; it's not like we'll run into them randomly."
As soon as he finished speaking, a commanding beastly roar erupted from the distant forest, startling their greedy snake.
"Horror-level monster!" Lin Xiaomei exclaimed in shock.
Qin Shou: "..."
Came just like that. Now where do I put my pride?
Grumbling internally, Qin Shou quickly retracted the greedy snake into the System Space to avoid attracting the horror-level monster.
