The insect swarm receded completely within ten seconds.
Around them, a vast emptiness.
Even the mutated vines by the river had been trampled down by the swarm.
"Ooh!" Keke let out a cry, signaling that there was no longer any danger nearby. Then she jumped out of Xu Xin's embrace and ran to the riverside.
"Don't touch the river water... hey!"
Before Xu Xin could finish speaking, he saw Keke stretch out her little paw and splash the water.
He hurried over to grab Keke and moved away from the lake: "What are you doing?! Are you trying to get us surrounded?!"
"Ooh...?" Keke flicked the water off her paw, looking innocently at Xu Xin.
He glanced around to ensure that no other creatures were approaching, then breathed a sigh of relief and lightly flicked Keke's little forehead: "You little thing, do you know something?"
Keke typically wouldn't do something so dangerous.
"Ooh!" Keke pointed at the riverbed and waved her little paw.
