Silver Ring reached out and poked its own tail, looking completely bewildered.
Her tail... wasn't it black and white? How come it turned white after being struck by lightning?
Also, what is she now?
Half-human, half-snake...
Waaaaah, I'm doomed! I was only halfway through the transformation, what am I going to do now?
"Yinhuan, are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere?" Luo Mang's anxious voice had just rang out from behind the large rock when it suddenly stopped.
"you......"
Luo Mang stared in astonishment at the little girl under the large rock.
This... this is my younger sister. How did she transform into human form ahead of schedule?
She only has three hundred years of cultivation. Even if she were struck by lightning, it would be impossible for her to transform into human form so early.
Moreover, her transformation was incomplete; only her upper body was human, while her lower body remained a snake's tail... and a white one at that.
Yin Huan looked up, staring into her misty eyes, and said without hesitation, "Big brother, I was struck by lightning and turned into a monster."
"Pah, you're not a monster." Hearing Silver Ring's crying, Luo Mang cast aside his doubts and immediately comforted her.
Silver Ring sniffed and said dejectedly, "Don't lie to me, you've become a monster too. I saw it just now, you grew wings..."
Luo Mang's forehead twitched, but he said without changing his expression, "I am not a monster, I am just a mutation."
Yes, it's mutation.
It's just a mutation into a winged dragon, nothing serious. Anyway, the fact is that his strength has increased dramatically.
Silver Ring was somewhat skeptical: "Really? But I've never seen a winged snake before?"
Luo Mang said in a serious tone: "I'm not a snake now, I'm a dragon. Didn't you see that I've taken to the air? Only dragons and true dragons of our kind can take to the air... Since I've taken to the air, I must have successfully transformed."
Silver Ring was still somewhat doubtful. She nodded hesitantly and pointed to her tail: "Yours is a mutation, then what is mine? Why did my tail turn white? And... I, I am now half-human and half-snake."
At this point, Yin Huan felt like crying again.
...This person looks neither human nor snake, how can she go out and face people!
"Don't cry, don't cry, it's alright. At least it's only half now, right? Once your cultivation is high enough, the tail will be able to turn back." Luo Mang walked up to Yin Huan, squatted down, and gently patted her little head, racking his brains to find words to comfort her.
Meanwhile, Luo Mang was also completely bewildered and couldn't make heads or tails of it.
Strangely enough, even though he had already undergone another tribulation, the inherited memories in his mind were still blurry.
Deep in his memory, Silver Ring would shed her serpentine form and become someone he looked up to. But he didn't know what her true form was.
"real?"
Yin Huan tilted her head, her large eyes staring intently at Luo Mang, as if she would believe him no matter what he said, with an unprecedented level of trust.
"Really, when have I ever lied to you?" Luo Mang replied, forcing a smile.
The two demons, who had not yet awakened their inherited secrets, still did not understand what kind of existence they were.
This ordeal filled the brother and sister with dread. Even the joy that followed was overshadowed by their transformed forms.
Luo Mang was alright, after all, he knew he had successfully transcended his tribulation. Although there were some problems with his "dragon" form, the energy flowing within his body had indeed increased countless times.
As for Yin Huan... if Luo Mang hadn't looked so resolute, she would have doubted her own snake form by now.
The two bewildered individuals looked at each other, speechless for a moment.
Yin Huan sighed; she knew Luo Mang was trying to comfort her.
She lowered her head, flicked her tail listlessly, and only when she saw that her tail was still flexible and did not cause any obstruction did she feel a little relieved.
Half-human, half-snake, so be it, at least I'm still alive.
When the lightning struck her, she knew she was doomed. With her cultivation level, it was a miracle she survived.
As if she had finally figured things out, the gloom that had been lingering in her heart slowly disappeared.
Silver Ring regained her composure: "Big brother, what do we do next?"
Luo Mang cleared his throat: "There are people down the mountain. We shouldn't stay here any longer. Let's leave first!"
Speaking of leaving, Yin Huan suddenly remembered the blue monkey she had left halfway up the mountain. Her eyes widened, she looked up, and said urgently to Luo Mang, "Brother, the blue monkey is still halfway up the mountain. He seems to have gained intelligence..."
