Beneath the Red Dragon-Chapter 124 - 60: Evil Dragon True Blood
"Honorable Red Dragon, supreme master of the Jackal Wolfman Tribe,"
The Jackal Wolfman Leader Yougu, towering at nearly four meters, bowed low at the feet of the Red Dragon like a weak cub, his head lowered, knowing that his thoughts and intentions were difficult to hide from this clever Red Dragon, so he opted to speak directly.
"I hope to receive your gift and become a Dragon Descendant Beloved like that Centaur. Once I become a Dragon Descendant Beloved, I will surely be stronger than that Centaur. I will become the mightiest warrior to carry out the Giant Dragon’s will,"
"I will demonstrate my capabilities to you, ensuring that the honor of the noble Giant Dragon’s blood is not sullied. I yearn to have the favor and honor similar to the Centaur Warrior!"
The Jackal Wolfman Leader Yougu slightly raised his head, staring eagerly at the layer of crimson scales covering the full muscles, a distinctive characteristic of the Dragon Descendant Species.
Becoming a Dragon Descendant not only represents possessing greater power but also having extended life, though the increased lifespan varies greatly among individuals.
Even the weakest Green-skinned Goblins and Kobolds can gain at least an additional 150-year lifespan, while races with robust physique and bloodline may increase by over a thousand years merely.
The natural lifespan of Jackal Wolfmen generally ranges from thirty-five to forty years, with each Jackal Wolfman considered adult between six to eight years and entering middle age at twenty-five.
Thus, although the Jackal Wolfman Yougu is at the peak of growth among his kind, far surpassing others, and possesses the power that most Jackal Wolfmen can never hope to achieve.
Yet, unless he transcends the essence of life, he will, like any ordinary Jackal Wolfman, enter a decline and eventually die, unchangeably.
He might be able to survive slightly longer than ordinary Jackal Wolfmen due to his robust strength and talent, but ultimately, he will not endure in this world.
The plight and sorrow of short-lived species lie in their limitations, even as the Jackal Wolfman Leader Yougu can easily challenge and defeat juvenile Five-Colored Giant Dragons, he cannot halt time’s relentless march.
This is the innate advantage of Giant Dragons; although some short-lived races may surpass them initially, it matters little, for the Dragon species emphasizes late development.
Of course, even the weakest juvenile Giant Dragon should not be trifled with by typical races.
Presently, the Jackal Wolfman Yougu is already sixteen years old, at the peak of adulthood for his kind, and will soon enter a period of decline.
Thus, he longs to become like the Centaur Chiron, extend his peak, and hopes to continue breaking through in the days to come.
This craving and ambition were why the Jackal Wolfman Leader Yougu, having defeated Black Dragon Rosani, hesitated to deliver the final blow, partly due to the fear of the Dragon Group’s power, and partly hoping to use the living Giant Dragon to strengthen himself through True Blood.
However, despite being smarter than ordinary Jackal Wolfmen, he does not know that creating a Dragon Descendant is not so simple. The True Blood of each Giant Dragon is intensely corrosive and poisonous to other species.
If he dares to bathe in the Black Dragon’s Evil Dragon True Blood, he would not receive the imagined reinforcement, and instead would suffer from the corrosion and poison of the Evil Dragon True Blood. While he might survive due to his might, it would likely cause him to enter a decline prematurely.
Though Black Dragon Rosani is not particularly strong, the nature of Evil Dragon True Blood far surpasses the Jackal Wolfman’s reeking crimson blood. Thus, tales of gaining Dragon Descendant bloodline and physique through dragon blood, followed by becoming a powerful warrior, only emerge in trivial stories.
The moment the Jackal Wolfman Leader Yougu finished speaking, before the mightiest Red Dragon could react, the Dragon Group, which had been jubilant with treasures until now, suddenly turned hostile, baring their menacing fangs, growling at the Jackal Wolfman Leader Yougu down on the ground.
"You despicable, petty creature, how dare you covet the Giant Dragon’s True Blood; I will crush you to death," the female Red Dragon Kleyna swallowed her treasures into her storage stomach, revealing her fangs as she charged forward.
The enraged female dragon ignored the fact that this Jackal Wolfman had just offered her treasures, stepping into the group of kneeling Jackal Wolfmen, instantly crushing several who dared not react. Then she forcibly knocked the Jackal Wolfman Leader Yougu to the ground.
This action exposed the Evil Dragon nature of these giant dragons, for no matter how much you offer them in a moment, once their interests are threatened, they turn faces instantly.
These dragon creatures behave notably differently when facing the Dragon Group, but regarding the outside world, they forever represent evil blood.
If it weren’t for Karon still undecided, Kleyna would have torn this Jackal Wolfman into pieces. However, the young dragoness still refused to relent, stepping fiercely on the Jackal Wolfman Yougu, her thick claws pinning him down.
"Let me kill him, this arrogant creature should become shredded meat in my mouth," Black Dragon Rosani’s chilling pupils filled with killing intent approached, menacingly grinding his fangs beside the Red Dragon, a piercing cold enveloping the back of the still confused Jackal Wolfman.
