Inside the stone house by the lake,

Lu Xuan was about to receive his order of custom demon beast meat when a high-tier Qi cultivator walked over.

“Junior Brother Lu, please wait a moment. I hate to interrupt you, but I need your attention.”

“Oh, it’s Brother Li. What brings you here?”

The man, like Lu Xuan, had taken on the task of raising Flood dragon demon beasts. They would occasionally meet in front of the stone houses, giving each other a nod of acknowledgement.

“Lu Xuan, one of my drakes suffered major injuries yesterday, and the cause is very simple, it was bullied by a group of Jiaolong Pythons.”

“And this is not the first time this has happened. Those Jiaolong Pythons that ganged up should be under Junior Brother Lu’s care, so I hope you can restrain them.”

“If any of them were to get fatally injured, it wouldn’t be good for either of us.

The high-tier Qi cultivator spoke with a somewhat gloomy expression.

“Really? I’m only responsible for feeding them demon beast meat. I didn’t meddle in what they normally do.”

“Besides, there are so many Jiaolong Pythons in the Thousand Dragon Lake, Brother Li, how are you so certain that those under my care were the culprits?”

Lu Xuan retorted coldly.

“In the few instances when group fights occurred, a Two-Headed Serpent is always present. This serpent is a different species and rarely seen. Only in your group, Junior Brother Lu, does a serpent like this exist.”

“This Two-Headed Serpent, why have two heads if not for attracting attention?

Its distinctive feature makes it hard to disguise.”

Lu Xuan cursed inwardly. Perhaps, he had been too strict lately, allowing them to support each other had provided the Two-Headed Serpent, desiring to be fierce and combative, an excellent opportunity to vent. Whenever there was a fight, it would ensue at the forefront, beating many other cultivators’ Jiaolong and Pythons mercilessly.

“Oh, really? If it’s the Two-Headed Serpent, it should be the one I’m raising. As for the others, I have no idea.”

“Moreover, are these not just children’s squabbles? Brother, you shouldn’t take

it to heart.”

Lu Xuan spoke with a smile.

“Your words are not fair, Junior Brother. Whose child ever beats another to a pulp?”

The high-tier Qi cultivator spoke unhappily.

“Those Jiaolong, Giant Pythons, and Strange Serpents belong to different clans.

Their power is of different ranks, some of them are even natural enemies.” “If they can come together to attack a flood dragon, has your flood dragon done something too excessive that you need to reflect upon, Brother?”

Lu Xuan argued).

“Yeah, these Jiaolong and Pythons would fight fiercely over a piece of Demon Beast Meat and engage in constant infighting. How could they possibly unite against a common foe?”

The high-tier Qi cultivator was taken aback.

A slight smile emerged on Lu Xuan’s face as he entered the stone house to receive the Demon Beast Meat.

Atop the platform, he picked-up pieces of carefully-selected demon beast meat, throwing them accurately to where the Jiaolong and the Giant Pythons were.

These Jiaolong and Giant Pythons were already accustomed to Lu Xuan’s feeding method, diligently waiting in their designated areas in silence.

“Hmm?”

After throwing out all the Demon Beast Meat, a scarlet giant python caught his attention.

The python held its head up high, its scales radiating spiritual energy in fiery red armor, looking like a ball of burning flames.

It would occasionally hiss, seemingly enduring agonizing pain.

After a long time, the flames slowly sank back into the scarlet scales. Lu Xuan detected a surge in the spiritual power within the scarlet giant python.

“Is this… promoted to the second rank?”

Lu Xuan looked at this scarlet python, ecstatic.

Named Red-Scaled Python, it was a species of special snakes. Previously at the first rank, under his careful nurturing and precise supply of Demon Beast Meat, it had finally managed to promote to become a second rank demon beast.

As he understood, if the Jiaolong pythons and others he raised increased in rank, he, as the breeder, would receive considerable rewards.

For a First Grade Giant Python Asura promoted to Second Rank, the reward is ten Sword Marks, and if a second rank is promoted to third grade, the reward is fifty Sword Marks!

Looking at the Red-Scaled Python and other Jiaolong pythons that were coming towards him, Lu Xuan seemed to see piles of movable Sword Marks.

He not only ensured that each Jiaolong was well-fed, but also provided them with the most suitable demon beast meat according to their preferences and body needs.

Under this customized cultivation method, the Jiaolong pythons he raised would surely grow faster than those raised by other sect members.

While Lu Xuan was daydreaming, a familiar voice came.

“Junior Brother Lu, are you tending to the Jiaolongs?”

Lu Xuan turned his head to see Huang Yuan, a cultivator who had achieved Perfect Qi Training, walking over with a smile.

“Yes, Brother Huang.”

“The Jiaolongs that Junior Brother Lu raises seem to grow very well. I must ask for your guidance when I have the chance.”

Huang Yuan said so with a laugh.

“Brother Huang is too kind. Is there anything you need?

“Well, I heard that while you were raising the Jiaolongs, you were drawing blood from them.”

“Personally, I feel that these Jiaolongs belong to the Sect and should not be harmed. Besides, it’s not good for their growth. What do you think, Junior Brother Lu?”

“I was reported by my peers…”

The first thing that came to Lu Xuan’s mind was a sect brother whose Jiaolong had been severely injured.

He paused for a moment and adjusted his tone.

“Brother, I only extracted a little blood from them, which won’t hurt their foundation.”

“Moreover, it was to give them a thorough examination, to discover and clear away any hidden ailments, to prevent them from being contaminated by harmful substances.”

Lu Xuan said grandiosely.

“Really? You draw blood to examine them?”

Huang Yuan was half-doubting.

“Of course, including the customized menu that was prepared before, it was all to help them grow rapidly, look, there’s a first-grade different species python that was promoted to second-grade.”

Lu Xuan pointed to the red-scaled python below, which had not yet left, and spoke confidently.

“Junior Brother Lu, you’ve only been raising Jiaolong python beasts for a month or so, and you’ve already promoted a different species python to the second rank. The effect is obvious.”

“However, this doesn’t necessarily mean it’s all thanks to you. After all, these Giant Python Asuras are a different species, and promoting to the second rank is only natural.”

Before Huang Yuan could finish his sentence, he saw unusual movements in the water below, and a snow-white Chi dragon came out from the bottom of the lake.

The Chi dragon was covered in cold air, freezing the surrounding water into blocks of ice.

Massive amounts of spiritual energy from all over Thousand Dragon Lake surged over, all being absorbed into the body of the Snow-white Chi dragon.

“This is…”

Huang Yuan stood there dumbfounded, with a mixture of surprise and uncertainty in his eyes.

“Brother Huang, there’s something I don’t understand.”

-May I ask Brother, if promoting from first to second rank is just a matter of course, then is promoting from second to third rank also a natural occurrence?”

Lu Xuan looked at Huang Yuan with a playful smile.

“It seems this Ice Chi really made itself look good, choosing such a perfect timing for promotion. It’s not in vain that I’ve been feeding it so much ice attribute monster meat.”

In his heart, he gave a thumbs up to the Ice Chi that was promoted to a third-grade Chi dragon..
