Behind Mo Yan's room, some beautiful white fish swam in a quiet little pond. The moon's reflection on the surface of the water above them was as if shattering the moon into thousands of pieces. Meanwhile, a gentle breeze blew through the trees near the pond, so playful that it carried a yellow leaf away. The leaf continued to fly with the mischievous sway of the wind and landed on a path whose dry ground was slightly gleaming in the moonlight. Just then, a few steps passed by the yellow leaf, with Su Nian and Bao Fang walking in the lead, followed by the cheerful and lighthearted Duie. His face held a strain, as if trying to suppress a smile or a laugh, as Su Nian and Bao Fang, walking ahead, were talking about something strange. Their conversation was filled with plans after plans to kill the dangerous snake. Both of them were more focused on making plans than walking, and Duie's soul laughed heartily. "We'll first surround the entire lotus pond," Su Nian said seriously. "The first disciple, of course. We'll wait for him to come out and capture him there." Bao Fang looked at Su Nian and said, "But remember, snakes can sense body heat. They can spot us from anywhere. To avoid this, we must keep our body temperature low." Su Nian said while walking briskly. Duie, who was listening to this, couldn't bear the pull of his lips. He was struggling so hard to hold back his laughter that his stomach started hurting. Because their words made it seem as if they weren't just targeting one snake, but were planning to destroy the entire world.
Just then, a light breath escaped from Duie's mouth, almost sounding like a soft laugh. As soon as that sound came out of Duie's mouth, Su Nian immediately looked back at him. Behind Su Nian, Bao Fang also looked at Duie in surprise. In an instant, Duie's face turned cold as if his soul had suddenly reached a state of zen. All the disciples also stopped when Su Nian's steps stopped. But when Duie's eyes met Su Nian's sharp, saw-like gaze, Duie suddenly started coughing violently. His condition became such that it seemed as if even his soul was frightened. "Ahem ahem ahem..... Something got stuck in my throat, ahem ahem..... But never mind, let's move on" He slapped his hand hard on his chest and moved forward while doing these awkward behavior. But Su Nian continued to stare at him with a ghostly expression. "Ahh!! First disciple, maybe we should leave now, I hope Brother Duie is alright."

Saying this, Bao Fang and the other disciples began walking again as Su Nian walked.
Finally, they reached the beautiful lotus pond.
Where even the winds sang praises of the beauty of this heavenly lotus pond, right in the middle of the pond stood a magnificent blue flowering tree, its long, flower-laden branches hanging down, bright blue flowers already blooming, scattered like gems on the lotus petals. The lotus pond was completely filled with pink and white lotuses. The entire scene looked like a painting, impossible to take your eyes off. Just like all the other disciples, Su Nian and Bao Fang were mesmerized by the beauty of the dreamy scene.
But while everyone's eyes were on that divine lotus pond, there was one eye looking at a different scene which was perhaps even more beautiful than that lotus pond, and those eyes belonged to none other than Duie who was looking at Su Nian from his long black hair to his waistband and his wrists, in which there was such a fire that the heat of the fire itself would become cold in front of it. But Su Nian's sensitive aura could easily feel the heat of those eyes, he knew who and how was looking at his from behind, but still he did not let any expression show on his face.
