~6 min read 1,194 words

The next day, several pieces of news quickly rose to the top of Jianghai City's hot search list, instantly causing a major uproar across a wide area!

【#Changsheng Group Annihilated! Young Miss Jiang Luoli's Life or Death Unknown! #】

【#Hundred-Meter Giant Snake Appears in the Dali Mountains, Humanity's Doomsday Is Coming! #】

【#The Snake King Has Appeared, Does Humanity Still Have Hope? #】

【……】

One after another, various reports concerning 'Changsheng Group's Advance into the Dali Mountains' were released.

Although there were journalists broadcasting live at the time, no one watched the entire stream, and those reporters were all outside the forest, only able to speculate on Changsheng Group's movements.

They waited left and right, but still couldn't wait for Jiang Luoli to come out, yet the commotion inside the forest had completely subsided, with only roars announcing that a large number of strange beasts still survived within.

Thus, the Transcendentals forced Huzi to use his transcendental power again to see clearly what was happening in the forest, in order to learn the situation there.

The final result was roughly what the Transcendentals had expected, but it was still shocking.

Therefore, when the incident in the Dali Mountains was exposed, it quickly sparked enthusiastic reactions from netizens, who discussed it nonstop, and many people began to worry endlessly upon learning that such a huge giant snake still existed in the forest.

For a time, the people of Jianghai City were filled with anxiety.

"Hmph!"

"I already knew that since humans gained transcendental power after the Seven-Colored Light Rain, pets were also greatly affected, so everything alive in this world would undergo tremendous changes, even becoming something humans could not resist."

A netizen mocked Changsheng Group's failure, saying, "Back then, Changsheng Group boasted shamelessly, claiming they would be the first, at the first moment, and launch their first expedition to conquer the Dali Mountains, but what was the result?"

"This is simply ridiculous!"

Soon, this comment gained more agreement, with many people joining in to sneer and mock.

Besides this, there were two other discussion points that were also highly popular.

"Our Jianghai City isn't actually that far from the Dali Mountains, and yesterday those journalists and Transcendentals already proved that the forest is home to a large number of strange beasts."

"If they all rush out, or seek revenge for Changsheng Group's attack, wouldn't Jianghai City be in danger?"

"Yeah, Changsheng Group is just trash—if they lack strength, they shouldn't meddle, and now they've left all the danger to us!"

So far, although we know the strange beasts are very powerful, Jianghai City remains peaceful, so people's worries about its safety are only held by a few, while most are curious about the strange beasts instead.

"Speaking of which, even the Transcendents from Changsheng Group who underwent training aren't a match for the strange beasts, so can the rest of us still resist them?"

As soon as this was said, many people shuddered all over.

After all, there are Transcendents outside too, but they can't beat Changsheng Group's, and Changsheng Group's Transcendents can't beat the strange beasts.

Some people are very curious about this, even to the point of preparing to invite Transcendents into the Dali Mountains to probe a bit.

But no Transcendental dares to go in at this time.

……

Inside the Dali Mountains.

Lu Chuan didn't know that he had already earned the title 'Snake King' in the outside world, and that people on the streets and alleys were all discussing him.

At this moment, he had already returned to the Peach Forest, staring ahead at the fortunate turn of events, unable to help but reflect deeply.

His previous battle with Jiang Luoli had already made him shed his arrogance, and although his little brothers had won a great victory, they had also suffered losses, so he sighed inwardly: "After all, there are always people better than you, and skies beyond the sky!" "Although those humans are basically no match, they can still harm us, especially experts like that woman among humans—there must still be many like her!"

"Overall, the strength between humans and strange beasts should now be roughly equal!"

Thinking this through, Lu Chuan's restless气 dissipated even faster: "The world is vast, after all, heroes emerge in abundance—I cannot act recklessly in the mountains just because I can dominate there."

"From now on, I must stay low-key and accelerate my strength improvement!"

"Otherwise... if I later encounter that woman, or even stronger humans, I might be left helpless!"

"Boss!"

"Boss!"

As Lu Chuan pondered, Jingang and Huitailang came over together, their moods seeming somewhat low.

He glanced at the other brothers cleaning the battlefield, understood it was what he had just ordered, and said in a deep voice, "Tell me, what's the situation?"

"We lost five."

In Huitailang's eyes, though not much sadness was visible, the loss of those five giant wolves—two were his wife, three his sons—meant he would lose even more members later, and his mood was very gloomy.

Beside him, Jingang directly expressed his emotion, his eyes bloodshot at this moment: "Boss, we lost three!"

"They... they were all my descendants!"

Hearing this, Lu Chuan also sighed inwardly, not knowing how to comfort them, and could only gesture for them to leave.

Although the other brothers' losses weren't as great, some were seriously injured and needed rest, while others had only minor injuries but looked even more terrifying than the severely wounded.

This great battle also caused the Peach Forest to lose many Strange Fruits, with many Giant Apes trying to find ways to recover, but those peach trees were already beyond saving.

"Give it to Hu Dali!"

After taking stock, Lu Chuan summoned the black panther blind in one eye, Heibao, and had him carry away several Strange Fruits, "This guy suffered heavy injuries—if he doesn't recover quickly, it could seriously affect him."

"You should eat some too; when the chance comes, I'll help fix your eyes!"

After driving off Heibao, Lu Chuan gazed at the surrounding dense forest, having formed the idea of leaving the Dali Mountains to plunder other mountain ranges, after all, this place couldn't boost his strength much further.

Plus, after the battle with Changsheng Group, Jiang Luoli definitely wouldn't give up—she would surely make a comeback.

With this mutual escalation, Lu Chuan believed staying here would only mean being suppressed by her: "Why do you keep staring at me? But after this, again and again, we've already forged an irreconcilable deep hatred—even if I don't pursue it, you won't let me go."

"It would be better to find a way to improve strength, so as not to be defeated by you..."

……

At Ginkgo Villa, a very disheveled figure appeared at the door, pounding loudly on it.

The butler happened to pass by, opened the door and saw the visitor, was about to drive them away, but upon seeing the visitor's raised face, froze instantly, then rejoiced greatly, "Miss, you... you're not dead?"

"That's wonderful!"

"Miss, come in quickly..."

Soon, the news that the young miss of Changsheng Group had returned safely spread throughout Jianghai City, causing a tremendous uproar!
