Victor stands on the edge of the thunderbird clan, playing with a few foods he can no longer eat in his hand, his eyes shining with eager anticipation.
He turns to look at the thunderbird clan and sees Chi Lei with a feather plucked by himself. A playful smile appears on his face as he points at Chi Lei and says, "Hey, you there. You look like you have a good physique. I bet I'd be very stable sitting on you. Want to take me out for a spin?"
Chi Lei Upon hearing this, his movements paused, and he quickly shook his head in refusal:
"Lord Victor, I... I still have things to attend to, I'm afraid I can't accompany you for a leisure outing."
His tone carried a hint of fear, obviously not wanting to have too much contact with the "plague god" who had just caused quite a bit of trouble for their tribe.
Upon seeing this, Victor did not get angry, only smiling faintly and saying, "Oh? Is that so? What a pity. I was hoping to borrow your eyes to see if there are any special treasures nearby." He deliberately emphasized the word "treasures."
"If you don't take me out to play, I'll just keep sulking here," that's what Victor meant.
Hearing this, Roger stepped forward, patted Chi Lei on the shoulder, and said, "Ah, Chi Lei, since Lord Victor is interested in sightseeing, you should accompany him. This is also a way for our community to express friendship."
His words revealed an unquestionable authority, making Chi Lei unable to refuse.
"This little plague god finally decided to leave. Why not send him off and stop blocking the way?"
"As for Chi Lei, he will be commemorated within the clan."
Chi Lei nodded helplessly, but cursed inwardly.
So, under the arrangement of the tribal chief, Chi Lei left thunderbird's territory with Victor.
"This little guy finally left. It's only been half a day, and he's already taken away the treasure of our tribe."
Watching Victor and Chi Lei leave, Roger's heart is bleeding, "But it's all worth it, our people haven't lost a single one!"
Before, at the mountaintop, the view wasn't very clear, but now that I've come down, I can see everything on the ground very clearly.
Everywhere there are brown rocks and dry, scattered gravel. Some drought-resistant and heat-resistant plants are growing tenaciously in the crevices of the rocks.
The green trees have lost their former vitality, like an old man who has been thirsty for hundreds of years, reaching out his withered hands to the sky; the tenacious weeds, although still surviving, have yellow, withered leaves that seem like they could catch fire with just a spark.
Because this is a volcanic area, it rarely rains all year round, and the temperature is hot. The sporadic plants here are already considered tenacious forms of life.
Victor sat on Chi Lei, directing him towards the only green valley. He behaved like a curious child all the way, marveling at the strange sights around him and being extremely curious about every inch of the land.
"That lizard looks so ugly, not as beautiful as our dragon race!"
Just as Victor was surprised to find such a small living creature here, the ground suddenly cracked open, and lizard fell down without warning, leaving only a few wisps of black smoke floating in an instant.
"Oh, what's going on with this?"
"Young master, this is because the mountain stores magma within a radius of hundreds of miles, causing an excessive amount of magma. This leads to occasional ground fissures and the release of a trace of magma, which gradually diminishes once you move away."
"The Mother of Dragons moved all the underground magma within a radius of hundreds of miles to the cave next to her home, causing an excessive amount of heat here, resulting in occasional leaks of magma."
"This little dragon is really strong, with endless power. When it moves slightly, I feel like I'm going to be thrown out." Chi Lei struggled to maintain stable flight, despite having some complaints, but didn't dare to offer any suggestions to Victor.
"It's really unlucky that I have to carry around this little dragon that was just born not long ago to play."
As the target gradually approached, the strange scenery in the valley became clearer, but Chi Lei began to hesitate. Mid-flight, it suddenly came to an abrupt stop, its huge wings carving an elegant arc in the air.
"Master, we cannot continue forward," Chi Lei said with a hint of trembling in its voice. It turned its head, its eyes filled with concern. "Ahead is the territory of the Nine Purple Flame Pattern Python, a very ferocious creature. Once we enter, we will surely come under attack."
"That guy doesn't submit to anyone. He bites whoever goes in, even if we fly over from above, we will be attacked by it."
Victor, however, remained unfazed, with a hint of excitement in his eyes, as if he had figured something out. He smiled faintly and said, " Chi Lei, you thunderbird are not afraid of lightning, so why would you be afraid of a snake?"
"No, young master, that is no ordinary snake. The Nine Purple Flame Pattern Python is incredibly powerful, even our clan has to avoid it," Chi Lei explained, his voice filled with hatred and helplessness towards the Nine Purple Flame Pattern Python.
Upon hearing this, Victor became even more determined. The stronger the Nine Purple Flame Pattern Python, the more effective it would be for him.
"Since you're afraid, let's stop here," Victor said solemnly. "I'll go alone."
"Master, you mustn't! The Nine Purple Flame Pattern Python is extremely fierce, even Lady Lilies..." Chi Lei exclaimed in shock.
"Don't say anything more, just put me down here," Victor interrupted Chi Lei firmly.
Victor leaped off Chi Lei's back without hesitation and walked towards the valley. Chi Lei watched his figure disappear into the misty valley (which had water and magma, hence the mist), feeling a mix of emotions. It knew it had to leave quickly, as if it were a moment too late, Victor might change his mind and it wouldn't have a chance to do the same.
So, Chi Lei no longer hesitated, it turned and flew away, its speed as fast as real Chi Lei, disappearing in the blink of an eye on the horizon.
When Chi Lei flew far away, Victor walked out from the mist. He took a deep breath, as if he had unloaded all his burdens.
There's no way around it. In order to save my own life, I had to put on airs in front of a group of people whose strength far surpasses mine. That was nerve-wracking enough.
What's even worse is that, in pursuit of maintaining my perfect image, I also swindled a bunch of gems and treasures from them. It's really something.
Estimating that in a few months, after the disappearance of the Mother of Dragons, they will realize that she is no longer here, and thinking about how they have been deceived, they will surely seek revenge and mobilize all their resources to find him. At that time, his life will be in real danger.
As for the Chi Lei, they know that he has entered the valley, and they will definitely come in to find him. The more aggressive the Nine Purple Flame Pattern Python is, the more it can delay time for him, giving him time to develop.
I want to become the strongest dragon!
Of course, I've only been born for a few days, so I hope you can understand if I hide a little.
Time waits for no one, Victor turned and walked towards the place he had just arrived.
"The most dangerous place is also the safest place." Victor silently recited this common saying in his heart, thinking that they probably didn't know they were about to walk into a trap.
