Soaring Serpent Blood

Soaring Serpent Blood

Each step of those flawless, fair jade feet landed squarely on Little Black's heart, making the Five-Hundred-Thousand-Year Ferocious Beast—who had been single for hundreds of years—feel his heart pound wildly.

Just moments ago, he had wanted to avoid this karmic entanglement, but now, all he wanted was to obtain it.

Little Black suddenly shook his head, alarm rising within him.

He, Little Black, was not a snake who could be tempted by beauty. How could he possibly have such thoughts?

This karmic entanglement should belong to his master, not to him.

His master could walk into the grave of marriage.

As for him, Little Black would simply pass through a sea of flowers without a single petal touching him.

Little Black instantly calmed his mind. His eyes no longer held the slightest desire, and when he looked at the Silver Dragon King, his gaze was clear, devoid of any lust.

Seeing that Little Black had no lustful thoughts toward her and that his gaze was as clear as water, the Silver Dragon King, Gu Yuena, could not help revealing a trace of admiration in her violet-red dragon eyes.

As expected of a Ferocious Beast with a special bloodline. Even when faced with the temptation of her beauty, he could still maintain absolute rationality and clarity.

Gu Yuena had absolute confidence in her figure and appearance. No beast could possibly withstand her honey trap.

Moreover, her honey trap was not merely a honey trap. It also carried a trace of temptation from the Dragon King bloodline.

Even if the other party did not desire her, they would still desire the Silver Dragon King bloodline within her, hoping to unite with her and produce powerful offspring.

"Are you the boss here?"

The moment his gaze fell on the Nine-Colored Energy surrounding Gu Yuena, Little Black understood.

"Were you the one who used a Supreme Divine Ability to pull me down from Lake of Life just now?"

"What did you bring me here for?"

Little Black stared at her, growing wary.

His master had once sternly told him that no one came to visit without a reason. No one would seek you out for no reason at all.

If someone suddenly came looking for you, then they probably had a favor to ask.

There was a very high chance that Gu Yuena was the latter.

However, the Silver Dragon King before him was countless times stronger than he was. He truly could not imagine what she might need his help with.

"You need not be so guarded against me. If I had even the slightest intention of killing you, I would not have spoken up to spare your life forty years ago," Gu Yuena said calmly.

What the Silver Dragon King said was true, and Little Black suddenly fell silent.

If the Silver Dragon King had not spoken up forty years ago, he would not have lived until today.

He would probably have long since been beaten to death and devoured alive by terrifying beings like Di Tian.

"I do indeed have improper intentions toward you."

"I am very curious—curious what kind of bloodline you possess, why it is so heaven-defying and powerful, and why it even has the power to reverse the rules of the plane."

After a slight pause, Gu Yuena slowly raised her hand. A dried Blood Stone appeared in the center of her palm.

She fixed her eyes on Little Black and continued, "Even the rules of this plane can do nothing to your Bloodline Power."

"After investigating, I discovered that your strange Bloodline Power contains an incomparably terrifying Power of Time."

"That Power of Time is the greatest I have ever seen. Even the God of Time in the God Realm is far inferior to it."

"Your Bloodline Power can alter the flow of time, using one year as ten thousand years."

"Forty years ago, you advanced into a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast and became a Ferocious Beast. Now, forty years later, you have boldly become a Fifty-Year Ferocious Beast."

Gu Yuena began to reveal her purpose, her bright eyes fixed intently on Little Black.

"Little beast, I want your bloodline to help me recover from my injuries."

"Forty years ago, I happened to obtain a drop of your blood."

"Relying on that single drop, I unexpectedly recovered one-twentieth of my strength. The injuries inflicted on me by the Asura God also improved greatly."

At this point, Gu Yuena could not help shaking her head and letting out a long sigh.

"Unfortunately, there was too little blood at the time, and I did not carefully study the formidable power of your bloodline."

"By the time I began researching it later, it was already too late."

"There was no trace of you anywhere on the continent. You seemed to appear out of thin air, then vanish into thin air."

"I had Di Tian and the others search for you, but there was no news."

Gu Yuena spoke gently, the heat in her gaze growing stronger.

Little Black before her was like a heaven-defying treasure of blood.

As long as she obtained Little Black's heaven-defying blood, the injuries the Asura Demon Sword had left on her would surely recover.

Furthermore, the rules of this world had no effect on Little Black at all. Perhaps she could also use his Bloodline Power to return to her peak and regain the Dragon King level of her prime.

Under Gu Yuena's blazing stare, Little Black inexplicably felt a chill run down his spine.

He felt as if he had become a piece of meat that everyone wanted to come up and take a bite from.

That strange, inexplicable feeling made panic rise in Little Black's heart.

Looking at Gu Yuena before him, Little Black pinched his chin and fell into thought.

He was not stupid. He roughly understood Gu Yuena's intentions.

She wanted his blood, and a large amount of it at that.

"So, you want my blood?"

Hearing this, Gu Yuena no longer hid her intentions and nodded solemnly.

"We are all intelligent people. Let us speak plainly."

"That is right. I do need your blood."

"To be precise, all of us need your blood."

Feeling that this was still not precise enough, Gu Yuena changed her words. "The Soul Beasts of Star Dou Forest all need your blood. They need your blood to defy fate and change their destinies!"

"No. That is far too much!"

Little Black shook his head and flatly refused Gu Yuena.

After pausing, he continued, "Besides, my blood is not some common cabbage that you can have as much of as you want."

"My blood is formed from my origin. Every single drop is extremely precious!"

There were an enormous number of Soul Beasts in Star Dou Forest—not hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands, but millions, even tens of millions...

If he gave every one of those Soul Beasts a drop of Soaring Serpent Blood, he would be drained dry.

Gu Yuena naturally knew this. With a wave of her delicate hand, several narrow-necked glass bottles with a capacity of one ton each appeared out of thin air.

"I did not consider this thoroughly and overlooked the numbers involved."

"I do not need much from you, only a few small bottles of your blood."

"Rest assured, I will not take your blood for nothing."

"If you fill these glass bottles, I will give you this Million-Year Soul Beast. How about it?"

As she spoke, silver light flickered over Gu Yuena's slender, flower-white fingers, and vast Space Power surged from her body.

Space trembled. Gu Yuena waved her delicate hand, drawing forth Space Power, and a square pocket of space appeared.

Inside that space was imprisoned a plump, snow-white Ice Silkworm that had already begun transforming into a dragon.

Million-Year Soul Beasts were terrifying, representing absolute overlords.

Yet a Million-Year Soul Beast like Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, which possessed only immense, pure energy but no offensive power, was an incomparably precious treasure.

Little Black cast Sky Dream Ice Silkworm a surprised glance.

It was only one glance before he withdrew his gaze.

A Million-Year Soul Beast without offensive power was indeed an incomparable treasure. A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast could directly increase its cultivation age by absorbing it, while a human could obtain a Million Year Spirit Ring and a Million Year Soul Bone from it. But to Little Black, it was merely so-so.

In another fifty years, who would not be a Million-Year Soul Beast?

"To be honest, not really!"
