Chapter 43 One Spring, Two Elements, Twin Eyes of Ice and Fire!
Dai Shengxi, Vina, and the others finally returned to the teachers' residence.
"Teacher, teacher, something terrible has happened! We just saw a small group from Class One heading towards the territory of the Poisonous Scorpion King..."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yue, the homeroom teacher of Class 1, immediately dropped the water cup she was holding to the ground and exclaimed in surprise:
"What did you say?! Which team is it?"
"It looks like Qian Yuhan and the others..."
"The Toothed Scorpion King! I only remember one Toothed Scorpion King in Sunset Forest, and it's nearly 50,000 years old! Oh no, Director Han, we have to rescue them immediately!!"
Zhou Yue said anxiously to Director Han.
"Okay, let's get going, let's go together!"
Han Xue didn't hesitate at all; this was a matter of life and death, so she quickly pulled Zhou Yue along and prepared to head to the territory of the Tooth-Pliers Poison Scorpion King.
"Roar!" A dragon's roar echoed from the sky. The deafening roar caused Han Xue and the others to look up and see an ice dragon circling in the air before landing on the open ground in front of them. An old man and a little girl stood on the dragon's back, while five children dressed in the uniforms of the Spirit Hall Academy lay on its back…
Old Liu appeared before them with Ouyang Luoxue and the five people who had fainted from poisoning.
"This...this is Lin'er? She was in the same group as Yu Han! They were rescued, they're alright!"
Old Liu used his soul power to transfer the five of them from the ice dragon's back to in front of Han Xue and the others, saying, "Cough cough, luckily we were just passing by and were able to help. However, they are severely poisoned and need immediate treatment. Delaying treatment could lead to long-term health problems that would be detrimental to their future development. By the way, this girl's soul power is too low, and she probably inhaled quite a bit of poison gas. She needs to be treated quickly, otherwise her life will be in danger..."
Old Liu stroked his white beard and pointed at Fang Ya.
"Thank you so much for saving them, sir. We thank you on their behalf! Sir, were there only five of them when you rescued them? There should have been six people in their group, right?"
Ouyang Luoxue, who was standing nearby, spoke up: "I don't know, there were only the five of them when we arrived, that person—"
Ouyang Luoxue was also very upset. Her purpose in coming here was to see Qian Yuhan again. But he wasn't among them; he was probably eaten by the venomous scorpion king first…
"I'll take them back to Wuhun City to heal their wounds. Zhou Yue, you'll arrange for two homeroom teachers to go with you to find Qian Yuhan. The rest of the teachers will stay and hold the line."
Han Xue quickly made arrangements and then summoned a soul-guided spaceship in the forest, taking the five unconscious people directly back to Wuhun City...
Dai Shengxi looked at the five people who had returned and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She thought to herself: Thank goodness she's alright, hahaha, that's great! That idiot Qian Yuhan is probably dead, hahaha, so satisfying! Ahahahaha—
Dai Shengxi's emotions were clearly written on her face. Ouyang Luoxue, who was standing to the side, saw Dai Shengxi's ugly face and knew exactly what she was thinking!
Ouyang Luoxue and Qian Yuhan exchanged letters. She also knew that Dai Shengxi was always trying to provoke Qian Yuhan. Just because they had a conflict when signing in at the beginning of the semester, she wouldn't let it go...
Therefore, Ouyang Luoxue had absolutely no good feelings towards Dai Shengxi.
Dai Shengxi's report just now was so moving; it made it seem like he hadn't been able to dissuade Qian Yuhan and the others, and that's why they almost met with disaster. His performance in front of the teacher was so genuinely emotional, constantly calling them "brothers"...
Ouyang Luoxue sneered: Heh, if I meet this person again, I'll really teach him a lesson. He's disgusting me.
On the other side, Qian Yuhan, who had been knocked away, was hanging on a tree and was almost eaten by a crested serpent.
Fortunately, a group of monkeys scared the crested snake away.
A large monkey, alternating between its right and left hands, swung back and forth, grasping a branch with each hand, until it reached the tree where Qian Yuhan was.
This giant monkey is the Crimson Demon Stone Monkey King that Qian Yuhan released not long ago!
When the Crimson Demon Stone Monkey King saw Qian Yuhan hanging from the tree, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, he knew he was seriously injured. Qian Yuhan had spared him and even given him elixirs to save his descendants; this time, he had come to repay the favor.
It then mimicked human behavior, opening the bottle of Xuanling Pills that Qian Yuhan had given it earlier. It poured out one pill and put it into Qian Yuhan's mouth.
Qian Yuhan naturally had no chewing ability, so he could only let the Xuanling Pill dissolve in his mouth and absorb its medicinal effects.
Qian Yuhan's injuries visibly healed. After a short while, Qian Yuhan slowly opened her eyes and saw that she was hanging on a tree. She twisted and turned until the branch broke off, and she fell to the ground.
Looking at the Crimson Demon Stone Monkey King in the tree and the bottle of pills in its hand, Qian Yuhan immediately knew that it was this Crimson Demon Stone Monkey King who had saved her.
Qian Yuhan nodded to the Crimson Demon Stone Monkey King, smiled, and took out another bottle of Xuanling Pills, beckoning the Crimson Demon Stone Monkey King to come down.
The Crimson Demon Stone Monkey King looked at the identical bottle and knew that it was the same thing as the one in his hand.
"This is for you, to thank you for saving me."
The Crimson Demon Stone Monkey King waved his hand.
"Don't refuse, you saved my life, I have to repay you."
This soul beast didn't understand much about human relationships and social customs. It thought that since Qian Yuhan had clearly stated it again, it was something it deserved and happily accepted it.
"By the way, where is this place?"
The Crimson Demon Stone Monkey King shook its head, indicating that it didn't know either.
Qian Yuhan walked forward for about 500 meters and then saw a cave.
Fearing that Qian Yuhan had not yet fully recovered, the Crimson Demon Stone Monkey King wanted to escort her for a longer distance, since she had given him so many pills. It understood this matter.
The Crimson Demon Stone Monkey King followed behind Qian Yuhan, who headed straight into the cave.
The cave looked eerie and terrifying, sending chills down one's spine. A damp atmosphere permeated the air, sending a shiver down one's spine. The walls and floor were covered in moss, and the air reeked of decay. The jagged rocks overhead looked as if they might collapse at any moment. The cave was eerily quiet, except for the sound of dripping water. Water seeped from the stone walls, falling one after another into the small puddles on the ground, making a crisp sound. Each drop of water splashed up tiny droplets before disappearing back into the puddles.
As time passed, the puddle gradually deepened, and ripples began to spread across its surface. These ripples expanded, merging with each other before disappearing completely. New water droplets continued to fall, keeping the water in the puddle constantly flowing. This continuous sound created an eerie atmosphere throughout the cave, reminiscent of scenes from horror movies.
As Qian Yuhan walked, she suddenly saw a glowing spot ahead!
Qian Yuhan turned from walking to running, heading towards the point of light.
The point of light grew larger and larger. Qian Yuhan knew they were almost at the cave entrance!
Upon exiting the cave, Qian Yuhan immediately felt the air was incredibly comfortable and fresh. The ground was covered with all sorts of colorful grasses, flowers, and other plants.
A small dirt road, seemingly formed naturally, connects to the cave entrance, as if welcoming guests.
The cave entrance can be said to be on the cliffs surrounding this area. Qian Yuhan followed the winding path in front of the cave entrance and walked down the cliff.
Qian Yuhan glanced to the side and was immediately shocked, her eyes widening in disbelief.
A spring gives rise to two polarities—this place is actually the source of both ice and fire?! Did I just stumble upon it by accident?!

Sorry guys, I was out all day Saturday and I'm exhausted. I just got home. I'm rushing to post a chapter right away, so please forgive me. Consider Saturday a sick day, please forgive me!
There'll be another chapter on Sunday, but I'll have to update it tonight. I need to get some rest now, bye...
