A Second Life, A New Power novel Chapter 331

Demi gripped the snake right below its head. At first, it twisted and writhed violently, but just seconds later, it went limp—like a piece of rope. She casually tossed it aside, and the moment it hit the ground, the snake sprang back to life and slithered away at lightning speed.

The online comments were a frenzy.

"Holy crap! That was terrifying! Did Demi just... grab it with her bare hands?"

"I swear, is there anything Demi can't do?"

"Honestly, the Pitt siblings have the worst luck. Last season, Thomas got bitten by a snake. Now, this time, it's Ana's turn."

...

Demi stepped forward and looked at Vivian. "Sit by the tree and roll up your sleeve."

"What?" Vivian blinked, still in shock. Before she could react, Cody gently helped her sit against the tree and carefully held up her bitten arm, rolling the sleeve up swiftly.

Demi had already pulled out her needling kit. She kneeled on one knee and, without hesitation, inserted several needles around the bite.

As the needles went in, dark, inky blood began to flow from the wound.

The on-site medical team, stunned at first, snapped into action and rushed over to Ana to administer emergency aid.

Their treatment method was straightforward—standard anti-venom and anti-snakebite medication.

Meanwhile, Demi had inserted around ten needles into Vivian's arm. She then turned to her woven basket, dug around for a moment, and pulled out several herbs. After casting a quick purification technique over them, she handed them to Vivian.

"It's going to taste awful, but chew it up and swallow," Demi instructed calmly.

Vivian hesitated. She didn't know whether to trust it or not.

"Just take it," said Nigel, Connor, and George almost in unison. "Demi knows what she's doing."

They were all from the film industry and had often crossed paths with Vivian, so she knew they weren't just saying it to be nice.

Upon hearing that, she stopped hesitating. She was about to clean off the herbs when she realized—they were already spotless. There wasn't even a speck of dirt. She popped them in her mouth.

Despite gagging repeatedly, Vivian powered through and forced every last bit down.

Once she finished, Demi carefully removed the needles and handed her one last herb. "Chew this one and press the paste directly onto the wound."
