Swoosh!
In an instant, the Blood-colored Bone Spear transformed into a streak of blood-colored light, swiftly cutting through the air, piercing straight through the head of a Blue-Scaled Python.
Roar!
With a mournful cry, the fierce eyes of the Blue-Scaled Python instantly dimmed, its powerful body plummeting from the sky.
The death of their kin didn't scare off the other three Blue-Scaled Pythons; instead, it further stimulated their ferocity.
Immediately, these three creatures roared together and once again crazily charged towards Fang Yuan.
Watching the battle, Jiang Che felt gleeful at Fang Yuan being entangled by the Blue-Scaled Pythons.
Serves you right for rushing ahead; now you're getting your just desserts!
These four Blue-Scaled Pythons must be the underlings of the Blue Flood Dragon King, perhaps even kin. It's likely the Blue Flood Dragon King transformed after consuming a Dragon Blood Fruit.
"Second brother, these little eels are all yours."
Jiang Che laughed heartily and headed straight for the Dragon Blood Fruit Tree.
"No, that rascal of a big brother!"
Hearing this, Fang Yuan, who had just killed another Blue-Scaled Python, felt anxious. He couldn't let the big brother take all the Dragon Blood Fruits.
"Get out of my way!"
The next moment, Fang Yuan prepared to leave the battlefield, shaking off the remaining two Blue-Scaled Pythons, and rushed towards the Dragon Blood Ancient Tree.
But these two Blue-Scaled Pythons, furious over the death of their kin, were not going to let Fang Yuan go so easily.
Roar!
The Blue-Scaled Pythons were extremely furious, roaring in unison as they lunged towards Fang Yuan's back with a stench-filled bite.
Their large mouths bit onto Fang Yuan's hindquarters.
However, with the Blood-colored Shield on his body, even though the Blue-Scaled Pythons had strong bite force and sharp teeth, they could only cause a slight dent in the tough shield, unable to penetrate further.
Screech screech screech~
The sharp teeth grinding against the shield produced a piercing, nerve-racking sound.
Suddenly, Fang Yuan's forward momentum halted, as the two Blue-Scaled Pythons clamped onto the shield, trying to drag him back.
"Damn it!"
With the Blue-Scaled Pythons holding him back, Fang Yuan couldn't move. Seeing his big brother already starting to pick the fruits, he was filled with rage.
"Fine! You want to die that badly? Your Demon Monarch will grant you that death!"
Torn with hatred, Fang Yuan's killing intent surged as he summoned the Blood-colored Bone Spear, launching it at the Blue-Scaled Pythons behind him.
While the second brother was still locked in a fatal dance with the Blue-Scaled Pythons, Jiang Che had already plucked the dragon-blood-like Dragon Blood Fruits.
Placing the fruit in his palm, Jiang Che observed them, showing a satisfied expression.
"With these Dragon Blood Fruits, the goal of this East Sea journey is achieved."
At that moment, two sharp, miserable screams echoed from behind.
Jiang Che turned to see Fang Yuan had already riddled the two Blue-Scaled Pythons with the Blood-colored Bone Spear, leaving them as dead as a sieve, blood all over the ground.
"That damn big brother didn't leave me a single one; it's too much!"
After brutally dealing with the two Blue-Scaled Pythons, Fang Yuan immediately looked towards the nearby Dragon Blood Ancient Tree, only to see it barren of Dragon Blood Fruits.
Instantly, Fang Yuan's face drooped, and he kept cursing in his heart.
Along the way, he had killed numerous sea beasts, putting in significant effort. Even now, the four Blue-Scaled Pythons fell to his hands, making his contribution tremendous, yet the big brother was utterly shameless!
Burning with fury, Fang Yuan wanted nothing more than to scold his big brother and demand his rightful share of the Dragon Blood Fruit.
But unfortunately, he didn't dare; the strength difference between them was too vast. If he dared to act, he would certainly get beaten soundly.
Thinking it over, if being tough wouldn't work, maybe being soft would.
So Fang Yuan's eyes brightened, his expression turned, and he approached with a smile.
"Hehe, big brother, you know how tough this journey was for your little brother, could you spare a little for me?"
Standing in front, Fang Yuan wore a hopeful expression, ingratiatingly.
Hmph, your Demon Monarch has humbled himself, surely big brother should give me half.
Fang Yuan mused to himself… Enduring humiliation was nothing if it meant obtaining the Dragon Blood Fruit.
Watching the formerly proud second brother humble himself just for a bit of Dragon Blood Fruit, Jiang Che found it amusing.
However, this second brother really could bend and flex, with great resilience.
Since the Dragon Blood Fruit was useful to him, he could put aside his pride to fight for himself.
"No problem, no problem, we're good brothers after all, we should share the blessings."
Jiang Che nodded, speaking with great generosity.
Although the purpose of bringing the second brother along was to have a helper,
the other had indeed contributed significantly, and it would be unreasonable not to give him something.
"Here, take it. Since I brought you to seek this opportunity, how could I let you return empty-handed?"
With that, Jiang Che used his Spiritual Power to hand over a Dragon Blood Fruit in his palm.
Seeing the lone Dragon Blood Fruit, Fang Yuan's eyebrows shot up, his anger rising anew.
Just one?
Big brother, isn't this too much of a bully!
Seeing Fang Yuan about to explode in silence, Jiang Che feigned ignorance and was about to retrieve the hovering Dragon Blood Fruit, "What, second brother, you think it's not enough? If so, then I'll..."
"I want it! I won't refuse what big brother has gifted!"
Fang Yuan quickly reacted, alarmed, and hurriedly extended his tiger paw to snatch the Dragon Blood Fruit.
One is better than none!
Suppressing a laugh, Jiang Che nodded, "Alright, now that we've got the treasure, let's go!"
"What about this Dragon Blood Ancient Tree?"
Nodding instinctively, Fang Yuan suddenly realized and looked at the nearby Dragon Blood Ancient Tree.
This was a precious treasure. With this Dragon Blood Ancient Tree, there would be an endless supply of Dragon Blood Fruits.
"This Dragon Blood Ancient Tree is hard to transplant, let's just let it grow here! Who knows when it will bear fruit again! If you're interested, you can come and check on it later."
Jiang Che shook his head, speaking casually.
"Alright then!"
Seeing that his big brother seemed indifferent to the Dragon Blood Ancient Tree, Fang Yuan's eyes lit up and he quickly agreed.
Noticing Fang Yuan's response, Jiang Che smiled internally, summoning the nearby cut-down pole to his side, suspending it by his feet.
"Xiao Zi, take good care, if you dare eat sneakily, I'll beat your butt!"
"Chirp, Master, Xiao Zi will definitely take good care of them!"
Handing the remaining seven Dragon Blood Fruits to Xiao Zi, Jiang Che instructed, then stepped onto the cut-down pole.
Sitting atop, Xiao Zi clutched the Dragon Blood Fruits tightly in her embrace, drooling as she gazed down at the fruits. Yet, remembering her master's instructions, she could only suppress her urge, swallowing her saliva.
Nearby, Fang Yuan followed behind Jiang Che, full of envy as he looked at the Dragon Blood Fruits in Xiao Zi's arms.
"Let's go!"
In the next moment, Jiang Che softly commanded, and the cut-down pole instantly took to the sky.
However, before leaving, Jiang Che made a point to take a lap around Dragon Island, unfortunately finding no other treasures.
