Chapter 37: Chapter 37 Red Scale Dragon Serpent
After dealing with the two men, Qinchuan planned to continue his journey deep into the Great Wilderness.
However, Miss Lin Xi from behind, had recovered from her initial shock and hurried after Qinchuan, a face full of gratitude, "I am Lin Xi, I thank you, young master, for your help just now."
Her delicate and beautiful cheeks were blushing, showing great excitement as she looked at Qinchuan with eyes sparkling with admiration.
She had been chased by those two young men who intended to dishonor her; had it not been for Qinchuan's intervention to kill the two men, her fate would have been extremely miserable.
As the image of Qinchuan casually killing those two young men with his overwhelming presence surfaced in her mind, Lin Xi couldn't help but steal glances at Qinchuan. When she saw his handsome face, her cheeks reddened even more, and her heart fluttered.
"It was nothing but a small effort; you needn't take it to heart."
Hearing Lin Xi's words, Qinchuan waved his hand indifferently and did not take it seriously.
With a sly smile and eyes curved, Lin Xi said, "How can that be? A life-saving grace is like spring water that should be repaid, and it should always be remembered. How can I not take it to heart? When I return to my clan, I will definitely repay you with a generous gift..."
At this point, she suddenly exclaimed, "Ah, right, I wonder how the clan elders are doing now."
She then asked somewhat embarrassingly, "Since you're so powerful, young master, could you help me with one more thing? Several elders from my family were entangled by a Scarlet-Scaled Dragon Serpent while they were covering for me to escape..."
Before she could finish, Qinchuan's eyes suddenly flashed, and he turned around sharply, "What did you say? Scarlet-Scaled Dragon Serpent?!"
Lin Xi did not expect such a strong reaction from Qinchuan at the mention of the Scarlet-Scaled Dragon Serpent, and she dumbly nodded her head.
"Where is it? Take me there!"
Qinchuan demanded immediately, his eyes emitting a fierce brilliance.
The Scarlet-Scaled Dragon Serpent was unlike common demon beasts, it was more accurately a powerful rare creature.
Its True Blood was a main ingredient needed to awaken the Innate Pupils!
However, the Scarlet-Scaled Dragon Serpent was already on the brink of extinction a hundred thousand years ago, and it was difficult to find throughout the Myriad Heavens and Worlds.
Qinchuan had not expected that such a creature would still exist in the Great Wilderness!
At Qinchuan's words, Lin Xi immediately became excited and hurriedly said, "It's just ahead."
However, upon hearing her words, Qinchuan's figure flashed, taking the lead and quickly rushing toward the direction she had pointed.
"Hey! Hey... Wait for me..."
Watching Qinchuan who had instantly dashed ahead of her and disappeared from her sight in a few quick moments, Lin Xi was stunned for a second, then quickly called out in her delicate voice, hurrying after him.
A moment later.
Qinchuan arrived at the place Lin Xi had mentioned.
"Old Fifth! How are you doing?"
"About to die..."
"This damned beast, its hide is too thick, and its strength is so great. It's truly deserving of being from the bloodline of the legendary Scarlet-Scaled Dragon Serpent."
"Luckily when we encountered it, it was already severely injured, or else we probably wouldn't have lasted until now..."
"Looks like we're not going to make it this time, but thankfully the young lady has already managed to escape, cough cough..."
Several Lin Family elders were holding each other up, their bodies in disarray, all exuding weak qi, looking as though they were on the brink of death.
The Scarlet-Scaled Dragon Serpent coiled its body around, its sanguine pupils fixated on the Lin Family elders. On its neck, there lay a ferocious claw mark, from which blood was pouring out profusely.
It was clear that before it had encountered the people from the Lin Family, it had already suffered from an attack by a natural enemy and had been severely injured; otherwise, the elders from the Lin Family would not have managed to hold on until this moment.
Yet even so, at this point, the elders of the Lin Family were already completely exhausted.
"Swoosh!"
Just then, the Red-Scale Dragon Snake suddenly attacked again. Its body abruptly shot forward, its gaping maw wide open, as it lunged at the Lin Family elders.
The Lin Family elders, now devoid of strength to continue the fight, could only give a bitter laugh upon seeing this, "Fellows, it looks like we're destined to die here today..."
"Whoosh!"
However, just at that moment, a figure suddenly dashed out from behind them. Moving as swiftly as lightning, wielding the Iron Blood Long Spear, the figure sliced through the air and shot towards the Red-Scale Dragon Snake.
"Thud!"
The next moment.
The Iron Blood Long Spear precisely pinned the neck of the Red-Scale Dragon Snake, right between its fearsome claw marks.
The immense force unleashed by the thrust of the Iron Blood Long Spear managed to pin the uplifted neck of the Red-Scale Dragon Snake firmly to the ground.
"Indeed, it's a Red-Scale Dragon Snake!"
The newcomer was naturally Qinchuan.
Upon seeing the Red-Scale Dragon Snake in front of him, a hint of pleasant surprise immediately surfaced in Qinchuan's eyes.
"I didn't expect that venturing deep into the Great Wilderness would lead me to a Red-Scale Dragon Snake. Life really is full of surprises at every turn!"
Qinchuan landed in front of the Red-Scale Dragon Snake and placed one hand on the Iron Blood Long Spear.
"Hiss hiss hiss..."
The Red-Scale Dragon Snake, with its neck skewered and pinned to the ground, hadn't perished yet. It let out a piercing hiss from its mouth, its enormous body rolling and struggling continuously.
But Qinchuan's hand was like a heavy mountain pressing down on the Iron Blood Long Spear, rendering the Red-Scale Dragon Snake's struggles in vain.
This scene, to the eyes of the Lin Family elders, left them completely dumbstruck.
Watching Qinchuan's silhouette, and the pinned Red-Scale Dragon Snake that he had subdued in an instant, disbelief filled the eyes of the Lin Family elders.
After a brief moment of shock, the Lin Family elders quickly regained their composure and gratefully addressed Qinchuan's back, "We, the Lin Family of Great Wilderness City, thank the elder for your timely rescue..."
"I didn't intervene on your behalf, so you need not thank me."
Hearing the words of the Lin Family elders, Qinchuan turned his head to glance at them and spoke indifferently.
The reason he had made a point of coming here was not to save the people of the Lin Family, but for this Red-Scale Dragon Snake!
"Regardless of why the elder intervened, the fact remains that you have saved our lives. If we may dare to ask the elder's name, we will certainly repay you generously..."
As they spoke, the people of the Lin Family looked up, all with grateful expressions directed towards Qinchuan.
However, as they clearly saw Qinchuan's face, they were all taken aback, "Qinchuan... Qinchuan?!"
"How could it be you?! How... how could your strength have become so formidable?!"
The Lin Family members were all at a loss for words, never having imagined that the "elder" who had pinned the Red-Scale Dragon Snake with a single blow would turn out to be Qinchuan!
And at this moment, Lin Xi finally arrived, panting heavily.
Upon hearing the elders' words, Lin Xi was immediately taken aback, murmuring in disbelief, "Qinchuan..."
"So, he is Qinchuan..."
"Is he the one my father intended for me to marry?"
