Chapter Seventy-Four: Hostility from an Endless Kind of Snakes

It was afternoon.

Loya went to the farm and ate a lot.

The previously agreed-upon celebration has been cancelled.

Elena and the baby dragon sisters ate and drank their fill, then went to their own rooms.

The three of them were somewhat surprised by Sal's death; they hadn't expected Sal to die like that.

The baby dragon sisters live very close to Elena.

They still lived together in the same big house.

"Hey, Lord Roloroya, you're really ruthless! Did he dismember Medusa, crush her, and smear the remains on the wall? Orpheus, you might not have noticed, but there's not even a trace of Medusa's bones left." Finland said cautiously.

Orpheus rolled his eyes: "What's so special about that? If it were me, I would kill Medusa for being so ungrateful."

"It's a pity she died in such a bad place. I don't know what Lord Roloroya was thinking, he destroyed the floor of the house. We have to go and repair it tomorrow."

"I'm always doing this kind of thing, it's such a waste of time, I don't even have time to properly cultivate myself."

Orpheus's resentment was intense; the cage was covered in blood, making it very difficult to clean.

Loya's antics are really causing them trouble.

"Uh, you want to cultivate? What do you cultivate? Aren't we all just sleeping?" Finland didn't care about Orpheus's earlier remarks, but was very concerned about Orpheus's last words.

Upon hearing this question, Orpheus said smugly, "I don't want to be with those stupid good-for-nothings who just loaf around and let their bloodline power grow naturally. I want to cultivate diligently, actively develop my own power, and accelerate my growth. With my potential, as long as I put in a little effort, I can definitely double my growth rate."

Upon hearing this, Finland had no choice but to nod: "Then I must also work hard in my training. I can't let you, my brat, surpass me."

"Hmph, you're really courting death. Even if you work yourself to death, you'll never surpass me." Orpheus raised his head disdainfully, appearing arrogant.

"Are you asking for a beating again?" Finland started grinding her teeth. She was Orpheus's older sister, and Orpheus always looked down on her and despised her. How could she stand it?

Seeing this, Orpheus quickly stopped, saying, "Alright, alright, let's stop talking. I need to get back to work."

She closed her eyes, but this wasn't simply sleeping; she was actually wandering through her dreams, perusing the knowledge within the memories of her dragon bloodline. At the same time, her spiritual power fluctuated slightly, actively absorbing the magical elements of heaven and earth.

"Damn it, there are still too many fire elements here. This lousy place is not suitable for us green dragons to cultivate at all."

Half a minute later, Orpheus suddenly cursed. But she didn't open her eyes; she was still "cultivating."

Finland was startled; she had just entered a meditative state as well.

This exclamation from Orpheus came so suddenly that if Finland hadn't had a strong heart, he might have been scared into going mad.

"Damn brat, you've completely enraged me." Finland gripped the dragon claw, lunged forward, pinned Orpheus beneath her, and struggled to push him away.

"Ah." Orpheus was stunned by Finland. She opened her eyes and tried to push Finland away, cursing, "You violent maniac, don't disturb my cultivation. If I am not as good as Lord Roloroya, then it is your fault."

"You big jerk!" (Bang bang), Finland clenched his dragon fist and punched Orpheus on the head.

In an instant, two large, red, swollen bumps appeared.

"I'm absolutely furious." Orpheus also lost control and flew into a rage, beginning a desperate counterattack.

"Crackling sounds" accompanied the sounds of a fight, and the whole room trembled slightly.

...

next door.

Elena, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed meditating, reluctantly opened her eyes.

The soundproofing in the rooms here isn't very good.

In fact, she had heard everything Orpheus and Finland had discussed earlier. After learning that Orpheus and Finland were going to work hard,

Elena panicked a little: "These dragons are very talented. Perhaps they will soon approach my level, or even surpass it."

"If I can't beat them in the future, then all the plans will be ruined."

"No, I must also work hard in my cultivation."

Elena felt the pressure, which fueled her motivation to improve.

Overall, while this isn't ideal, it's still beneficial for her development.

"From now on, to avoid being disturbed by them, I have to move out." Another thought came to mind.

As for separating Orpheus and Finn, allowing them to train alone, that's impossible. Only by killing each other can they be held back, preventing them from having more time to train.

Elena gave a sinister smile: "I can sow discord between them later and make them fight more often."

"Also, so much time has passed, how is Dad doing?"

Elena turned her head and looked out the window at the still fiery red sky.

Having been captured here for so long, she has slowly adapted and accepted it. But sometimes, she still can't help but miss her family and friends, and her beloved kingdom of Philar.

“As I mentioned before I came here, I live near Luojin Town.”

"I wonder if the people Dad sent will search the area. It would be good if they could find any clues I left behind and thus pinpoint the location of the Flame Serpent Canyon."

"May God protect us."

"Lord Roloroa is already powerful enough,"

"If we delay any longer, even a legendary supernatural being will not be able to threaten him. In that case, the Kingdom of Philar will lose all hope."

"After all, the Kingdom of Philar has no powerhouse comparable to a legendary level."

...

...

While the two dragons were killing each other, Elena, the human maid, was still filled with worry.

Loya was on his way to the cave breeding farm.

Some fiery serpents still remain in this world. They roam freely, darting about everywhere.

"The snake-attracting potion is still not powerful enough; it didn't bring all these little darlings into the breeding farm," Loya said with some dissatisfaction. "We must produce more snake-attracting potions in the future, and we can't give up on the infinite reproduction of the potion."

"When the entire Flame Serpent Grand Canyon is overrun with snakes and turns into a super-large breeding farm, then we can stop and take a break."

"Unfortunately, we are short-handed. With just a few of us, we simply cannot collect many medicinal herbs. Moreover, the most important thing is that there are hardly any medicinal herbs in the Flame Serpent Canyon."

Loya's eyes became distant as he was deep in thought.

"Hiss hiss hiss," suddenly, a bright hissing sound came from all around.

Immediately afterwards, several small fire snakes rushed over menacingly.

The current Loya is enormous, making this little fire serpent as tiny as a giant earthworm.

But this insignificant bastard actually had the audacity to attack him.

"Bang, bang, bang, crack, crack," the serpent's fangs snapped as it touched Loya. Others even had large bumps on their heads from the impact.

Although the Flame Serpent is like an insect, its effect on Loya is negligible. Under normal circumstances, Loya wouldn't even notice it, and even if he did, he wouldn't care.

But now Loya was a little sensitive. He immediately snapped out of his daze and looked down at the dizzy little fire snake.

"I don't know where you got the courage to attack me."

"Although you are insignificant, to me you are not even enough to fill a gap between my teeth."

"But since you've come to me with such enthusiasm, I won't stand on ceremony with you."

Loya opened his mouth slightly and took a breath.

With a whoosh, the little fire snakes were sucked up and disappeared into Loya's mouth.

It all sounds like a long story, but in reality, it only took a few seconds.

Loya's previous problem was actually easy to solve: just buy it from outside.

Although this requires money, the Flame Serpent Grand Canyon is also quite wealthy.

Even just selling fire serpents is enough to make a lot of money.

Loya continued walking, his pace quickening as he prepared to eat and drink his fill as soon as possible, hoping to significantly improve his martial prowess.

"I must reach the level of invincible power below the legendary level in the shortest possible time. Only in this way can I completely and effortlessly suppress the Flame Serpent Grand Canyon and take everything here into my possession."

Ultimately, he still needs ability.

In such a world, basically as long as one has enough power, one can accomplish most things.

"Hiss hiss hiss," however, we've come this far.

The fire serpents they encountered on the road seemed to have gone mad; they all charged at Loya.

At this point, even if Loya was stupid, he sensed that something was wrong.

Fortunately, these snakes were all very weak and posed no threat to him, which put him at ease.

"Thank you for the gift from the Flame Serpent Grand Canyon. I will definitely eat and drink my fill, then grow into an invincible overlord and lead you to the most distant peak."

Loya spoke frivolously, seemingly enjoying himself.

And he, of course, wasn't really crazy; he felt that the Flame Serpent Grand Canyon was loving him dearly.

He simply felt that he had discovered the effects of the forbidden spell that Salu had placed on him before she died.

He quickly arrived at the breeding farm. The fire serpents here were mostly tamed. Coupled with Loya's ferocity, even if they weren't completely obedient, they dared not attack him. Instead, in the past, as Loya approached, these fire serpents would instinctively scatter in fear, fleeing into the distance.

However, the current result is completely opposite to that of before.

These snakes, upon seeing Loya, were like human men seeing their mortal enemies who had killed their entire family and robbed them of their beloved wife, daughter, and wealth.

They charged forward frantically, wanting to kill Loya.

"Yes, there's absolutely no mistake. Salu made me the mortal enemy of the Flame Serpent. Whenever the Flame Serpent sees me, it will lose control and rush to kill me."

Loya nodded and smiled. To be honest, this ability was quite powerful, but Loya didn't dislike it because it meant that when he went to hunt snakes, the fire snakes would come to him on their own, saving him time and making it convenient for him to eat.

(Author's note: I have a small reflection to share. I have been trying to write 10,000 words a day for almost ten days, but the results are still dismal.)

With the current collection, there are barely over five hundred items.

This shows how terrible my book is.

As for me, the author, I'm utterly worthless.

However, I used to be just as clueless, so I guess I'm used to it.

So, I won't abandon this book.

Regardless, I will continue writing and strive to create a more complete ending.

Of course, the main reason is that I've been writing for so long, how can I get by without getting full attendance bonus?

As for me, I'm really poor. I'll make sure I get full attendance every time I can.

With my current performance, it seems I need to write 300,000 words to qualify for VIP chapters and earn full attendance bonuses.

In order to get it listed as soon as possible, the daily subscription fee will not be stopped.

I'll continue like this; that way, I can shorten the time it takes to get the product on the shelves.

(Author's note: Although I've resigned myself to my fate and am prepared to just get by with perfect attendance, I still hope that my readers can support and encourage me.)

It's really painful to fall flat on your face.

Waaaaaah x﹏x

I'm about to cry; this is no joke.
