Chapter 199
Edited by Aelryinth
Voom! The Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon shot out another fireball from its mouth .
This was an elemental attack, after all . It could only shoot once every three seconds or so . It was impossible for the twin-headed dragon to strike the nimble Scarlet Flame Drake accurately with such a delayed attack .
This time, the fireball struck a rock, directly burning the algae on it to ash . The rock on the surface cracked from the heat, and the shattered rocks sputtered . A few pieces of it struck Zhang Che, but its force was easily negated by the Maneater Leech King soft armor .
The Swamp Crocodile King armor was a hard armor, and would impede his movements at this time . Zhang Che wouldn’t wear it under such circumstances . If he got careless and fell off the Scarlet Flame Drake, he would really be unable to do anything but let the Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon do whatever it wanted to him .
The Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon was furious after failing to hurt Zhang Che with two fireballs . However, it was very wary of the Scarlet Flame Drake’s Liquifying Scarlet Flames attack, and didn’t dare to swoop down at them . The black head on the right suddenly widened its jaws, breathing out a mass of poisonous mist, aiming directly in front of the Scarlet Flame Drake .
Okay, it turned out that this fellow actually knew to calculate and lead a target…
Even so, how could the Scarlet Flame Drake possibly dive into the spreading poison mist ahead? It turned and ran off in another direction .
Zhang Che was astonished as he watched the plants shrouded in the poison mist rapidly withering away .
This was simply a biological weapon; one slight contact with it and you’re done for! He had to be careful going forward . It would be really bad if he was struck even once…
He couldn’t summon the Purple Jade Condor, who had the poison resistance halo attribute, either . It would be like sending it to its death . Zhang Che had no choice but to let the Scarlet Flame Drake try its best to maneuver around, avoiding the poison mist .
-We just need to hold on for two more minutes!- Zhang Che calculated inwardly . He ordered the Scarlet Flame Drake, “Shoot another mouthful of flames at it; it’s fine even if you miss, just don’t let it act as it wishes . ”
During the interval between poison mist attacks, the Scarlet Flame Drake raised its head, facing the sky, and breathed out another column of flames .
Although the Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon knew for sure that the flames wouldn’t burn it, it didn’t dare to be careless . It beat its wings and raised its altitude by a few dozen meters again . With that, it was even more unlikely to be a deadly threat to Zhang Che .
This made it extremely furious . It wasn’t easy for it to find fresh prey, and it thought it would try it for a change . In the end, it turned out this freaking little guy was filled with thorns!
Taking advantage of the opportunity when the Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon flew up high, the Scarlet Flame Drake finally reached the rugged, rocky area in the valley .
“Now, we’re finally safe . That fellow probably won’t continue chasing us now, right?” Zhang Che let out a long sigh of relief . He turned around and looked to the sky, and saw that the Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon had actually swooped down again!
“Hmm, this fellow is really strange . I didn’t kidnap its children or anything; why is it hounding me like this? It must be sick in the head!”
In the next moment, Zhang Che’s complexion changed greatly .
The Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon, swooping down from the sky, widened both its mouths at the same time . A tongue of scarlet flames shot out from the crimson head on the left, while a mass of black poison mist shot out from the black head on the right .
The red flames and black mist fused into one, and immediately formed a black column of fire, shooting directly towards Zhang Che’s position .

-Is there a need to use your skills!?- Zhang Che nearly cursed out loud . It was probably too late to try and dodge now . He could only order the Scarlet Flame Drake to open its mouth and use all its remaining vital energy and breathe out a scarlet column of flames, aiming at the Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon’s Venomous Black Flames .
The two different-colored flames clashed . They actually cancelled out one other mysteriously, leaving Zhang Che’s scalp feeling numb watching them .
Two seconds later, both sides stopped breathing fire .
The Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon’s skill lasted for only two seconds . Although the Scarlet Flame Drake’s Liquifying Scarlet Flames could last for three seconds, it had used up a third or so of its vital energy earlier when it breathed flames on the two previous occasions . Therefore, it also stopped after two seconds .
Although the Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon’s Venomous Black Flames contained deadly poison, it was burned away by the Scarlet Flame Drake’s Liquifying Scarlet Flames . It was simply for naught; shooting the poison mist at them as harassment worked better .
Zhang Che breathed out a long sigh of relief . He continued looking at the Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon in the sky nervously, praying in his heart, -You better not run…-
Alas, it was like the Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon overheard Zhang Che’s prayers . Seeing as it was unable to do a thing to Zhang Che despite using all its means and methods, the Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon decided to beat its wings and rose higher in the sky .
-Is it really running away?- Zhang Che was depressed! -Do I have to let it go just like that, after being chased like a dog?-
Alas, the Purple Jade Condor was no match for the Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon . Although the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon’s attributes was a counter to it, its level and quality was a little too low, and would only be cannon fodder .
-What should I do?- Zhang Che truly couldn’t swallow it down like that without getting back at it .

Luckily, after ascending to a few hundred meters in the sky, the Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon seemed to be really intent on duking it out with Zhang Che . It actually started circling in the sky, roaring at him from time to time, as if it was saying, “Brat, I’m definitely eating you today . Just you wait!”
Zhang Che was assured . He let out a faint, strange smile on his face, and stuck out his middle finger at the Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon, not caring whether it understood the meaning of it .
Although the Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon’s intelligence wasn’t high, it seemed to know Zhang Che was taunting it . It immediately spat out another fireball and poison mist at him .
Zhang Che naturally didn’t care about it, since they were so far apart . All it took was the Scarlet Flame Drake making a jump, and hiding behind a large rock . The Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon’s attacks missed entirely .
The two entered a standstill, forming a delicate situation .
-Less than a minute left!- Zhang Che continued counting down silently in his heart .
The Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon realized such harassing attacks wouldn’t be able to threaten Zhang Che at all . It decided to keep circling in the sky, keeping an eye on him to ensure he wouldn’t run away .
It had already made up its mind . When its skill could be used again, it would definitely swoop down again, leaving its prey below unable to dodge or defend .
-Less than half a minute left!-
-Ten, nine, eight… three, two, one, do it!- A glint of light flashed in Zhang Che’s eyes as he shouted inwardly .

… nothing happened…
“Damn, I knew it; just counting by myself is really inaccurate…” Zhang Che was depressed . Luckily, he was only acting cool to himself silently . It would be too embarrassing if he had really shouted out loud earlier .
In the next moment, the Purple Crystal Tortoise’s small head suddenly peeked out from the rocks and opened its mouth, aiming at the Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon .
An invisible storm of rocks suddenly formed . Rock spears invisible to the naked eye thoroughly shrouded the Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon a few hundred meters up in the sky .
In the instant the Purple Crystal Tortoise opened its mouth, the Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon suddenly sensed a great danger approaching . It wanted to spread its wings and fly away, but it was already too late .
Countless rock spears, each as thick as an arm, struck every part of its body at supersonic speed, directly blowing it higher up into the sky .
The Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon was extremely perceptive . During the most crucial moment, it retracted its wings and allowed the countless rock spears to hit its abdomen . Although the rock spears covered it in injuries, it managed to stay in the air .
Big pieces of scales mixed with fresh blood fell from the sky . The Poison Fire Twin-Headed Dragon let out a roar filled with sorrow and anger, its relatively uninjured wings spreading wide once more as it started to fly away .
However, although its wings weren’t heavily injured, the area where its wings connected to its body was, greatly affecting its flying speed . The difference was like heaven and earth compared to its original lightning-fast flying speed .
“Thinking of running away after provoking me? No such thing!”
