Zhang Che hid himself and swept his eyes across the gorgeous huge snake. He discovered that it was actually a three-star silver-quality beast. No wonder the Purple Jade Condor was so apprehensive of it.

Logically speaking, it was impossible for a three-star silver-quality beast to fight back against a three-star gold-quality beast, especially since the Purple Jade Condor was the natural enemy of the snake species.

However, in the prior battle against the Tian Yin Squad, the Purple Jade Condor had already sustained heavy injuries. On top of that, it flew all the way back here. Nearing the end of its strength, even an ordinary two-star exotic beast would be a huge threat to it, let alone the three-star silver-quality Azure Snake.

Because of that, the Purple Jade Condor was forced to consume the Five-Colored Spiritual Flower before it was matured to suppress its injuries, recovering some of its strength.

The Azure Snake wasn’t willing to retreat just like that, even after watching the Purple Jade Condor eating the Five-Colored Spiritual Flower, either. Even if it wasn’t able to snatch the treasure, it just had to eat the Purple Jade Condor before the latter fully digested the herb. It could gain tremendous benefits from that, too.

Seeing the Azure Snake was unwilling to back off, the Purple Jade Condor displayed its savagery as well. It actually took the initiative and attacked the bright snake. Its wings were slightly spread, slamming its talons off the ground and grabbed at the Azure Snake’s head.

“Yes, fight! It’s best if the condor busts the snake head open!”

Zhang Che hid himself carefully, his eyes locked on the battle ahead. He could only hope that the two would be evenly matched, ending with grave injuries on both sides. That was the only way he had a chance to go up and pick up scraps.

“Mmm. I’ll just wait quietly, like a fisherman, this time. No matter if any opportunity arises on the way, I’ll definitely stay my hand!” With the lesson from last time, Zhang Che felt it was better to just watch by the side.

The two huge creatures’ desperate fight was incredibly intense. The surrounding rocks and plants were all swept into the battle, left in a devastated state.

Every time the Purple Jade Condor’s wings beat, the wind generated would destroy the surrounding bushes, shredding them into chaff, and its sharp talons would rip the earth under the plants, uprooting them and sending them flying in all directions.

The destructiveness of the Azure Snake, its body as thick as a water pail, wasn’t to be underestimated, either. It could shatter rocks every time it whipped its body. Some of the pieces even flew all the way to Zhang Che’s side.

“Shit, we’re almost a hundred meters apart, and I’m still not safe!” Zhang Che cursed inwardly and retreated another few dozen meters, afraid of being caught up in the battle. If the rocks struck him, he would really be in a world of pain.

Just as Zhang Che was retreating silently, the ball of bronze light in his spiritual sea suddenly shone brightly and shot out, turning into an ugly monkey standing at his side.

“Hmm? It hasn’t been that long, and the Gluttony Monkey is already fully cured by the rainbow crystal?” Zhang Che couldn’t help but be astonished. Looks like it didn’t matter whether it was his beast cards or his pets, or how severe their injuries were, they would recover to peak condition very quickly under the mysterious powers of the rainbow crystal.

“Jijiji…” The Gluttony Monkey cried out, making faces as he saw his owner looking at him. He bowed with his hands held in front, trying his hardest to please his master.

Zhang Che was stunned once more. Was this a freaking Gluttony Monkey, or a flattery monkey?

“Alright, alright, stop crying out. We’re finished if you attract those two big guys over.” Zhang Che hurriedly glared at this fellow, telling it to shut up immediately.

Seeing his owner’s displeasure, the Gluttony Monkey quickly stopped obediently. His facial hairs scrunched together, his lively pupils looking like he was wronged.

Pa! A rock as big as an egg came flying from afar, smashing down on the Gluttony Monkey’s head.

The Gluttony Monkey jumped up from the pain, flailing his arms. Even so, he remembered Zhang Che’s scolding from moments ago, and didn’t make a sound.

However, this fellow’s brain waves were obviously slightly different now. After taking a look at the battling condor and snake in the distance, his anger shot to his head. He bent his body and picked up a fist-sized rock, ready to throw it at them as revenge.

“Damn, you little shit!” Zhang Che’s face changed greatly as he jumped over to intercept the Gluttony Monkey’s right hand. His eyes were blazing, nearly losing control of himself and tearing apart this saboteur.

The Gluttony Monkey probably realized he was doing something silly as well, and immediately frowned, unmoving. Only his eyes were still spinning around. No one except him knew what he was thinking.

Zhang Che swept his gaze over to the Purple Jade Condor and the Azure Snake’s fight. The two were still fighting intensely, obviously unaware of the commotion over here. He let out a sigh of relief and hurriedly brought his subdued beast and pets even further away.

——

The battle didn’t continue for long. The Purple Jade Condor’s injuries were too severe, after all. The consumed Five-Colored Spiritual Flower wasn’t able to suppress its injuries thoroughly. During one of their exchanges, the Azure Snake’s huge figure finally managed to wrap itself around the Purple Jade Condor’s talons, causing the latter to lose half of its fighting strength.

“Oh no, I thought they would end with both sides gravely injured…” Zhang Che was gravely disappointed. If the Purple Jade Condor lost just like that, he would lose all chances of picking up scraps.

He didn’t have much confidence in winning against an uninjured three-star silver-quality beast. Moreover, the Azure Snake was too big; even if the Mutated Puffersword was able to injure it, this huge snake could surely retaliate right away and turn him into meat paste.

As expected, after wrapping around the Purple Jade Condor, the Azure Snake pressed on its advantage and slithered its thick body up, constricting the Purple Jade Condor’s entire body.

Even from afar, Zhang Che could hear the sounds of the Purple Jade Condor’s bones snapping.

“The situation is set. I’d better go; there’s no hopes of becoming a fisherman any longer.” Zhang Che shook his head, turning around to leave.

At this moment, however, the Purple Jade Condor suddenly let out a piercing cry. A dark golden radiance suddenly shone from its body, a powerful force erupting from its nearly-broken body.

“This is the might of a treasure-grade medicine!” Zhang Che was flabbergasted. He watched in disbelief as this scene played out. He didn’t expect there would be such a twist at the end.

Judging from the situation, the Purple Jade Condor had fully absorbed the Five-Colored Spiritual Flower’s medical efficacy, and was at the brink of advancing!

If it could successfully advance, the Azure Snake was dead without a doubt!

The latter seemed to sense a huge crisis, as well, madly constricting its body, trying to squish its prey to death. At the same time, its great mouth opened wide, biting down at the Purple Jade Condor’s head!

Translator’s Note:

1: There is a traditional Chinese saying that goes something like ‘aim for seven inches when fighting off snakes’, meaning to aim for seven inches off the snake’s head, where the heart is. However, that is not actually true. Not all snake hearts are located seven inches away from the head. Some snakes are so tiny that they aren’t even seven inches long.
