Rebirth of the Godly Prodigal

Hong Dali’s title as “Animal’s Best Friend” was strong. He could become friends with most animals.

However, this Black Flood Dragon was a little different. It was originally a python, only a little stronger than a snake. However, it ingested a strange, unknown black fruit in Lake Ze An. After eating it, its size continued to grow, and its temper worsened as well!

Even for someone with a title like “Animal’s Best Friend”, he could only barely suppress its violent nature!

Of course, that was no longer important. Hong Dali would not allow it to continue with its bad temper.

“Should we leave the moment you tell us to leave?” Hong Dali pouted. “Do you believe it when I say that I can make you surrender any minute?”

“Arrogance!” The Black Flood Dragon was enraged. Instantly, it began to stir up huge storms again.

The Black Flood Dragon was angry, but Hong Dali was even more wild!

The Black Flood Dragon had lived in Lake Ze An for thousands of years. There was a saying that “snake meat is the best supplement.” Since this Black Flood Dragon had trained until today, its meat must be good stuff. How many attribute points could it provide?

Thirty points for all attributes? Fifty points?

Hehe, since we’re at the treasure chest, how can we leave empty-handed? Let’s get my team a good meal today!

“Acka.” Hong Dali pinched the tender flesh of the Black Flood Dragon’s esophagus and smiled. “Bite a piece off and try the taste.”

“Chirp chirp!” Acka showed no hesitation. It already had teeth harder than steel, capable of biting on attribute gems. This soft internal flesh presented no challenge. The little guy flew up and took a violent peck!

…

The Black Flood Dragon was in a good mood recently.

It finally reached the Stellar-level and was about to enter peak condition. If it took one more step, it could completely break through the current snake form and evolve into a higher life form. Then, it could control the power of water and summon the wind and rain to his liking. It would become a Green Dragon and one of the four sacred beasts in the universe. Although it had an impure bloodline and could not compare to beasts like the Green Phoenix, the actual difference in strength would be minimal. At least on this planet, it would not need to worry about anyone apart from the Green Phoenix.

Although it went on murder sprees in recent years, someone still dared to challenge its authority today. They directly entered its territory. The Black Flood Dragon was enraged and swallowed the offenders in a single bite.

However, the Black Flood Dragon had a subconscious feeling that he should not deliver a lethal bite directly. Hence, he spared their lives.

If this occurred a few years ago, all these people would be dead.

However, these humans entered his belly, and they still dared to oppose him now!

As a peak Stellar-level beast, the Black Flood Dragon was as intelligent as humans. It understood how corrosive its stomach acid was.

It was not an overstatement to claim that if it rolled a few times inside Lake Ze An with the humans in its stomach, they would be completely corroded the moment they touched its stomach acid. Not even a single bone would remain.

After all, even normal snakes swallowed their prey whole. No bones would remain after their digestion. The same could naturally be expected of the Black Flood Dragon!

However, just as the Black Flood Dragon was thinking that it suddenly felt a deep pain originating from inside its body.

There was a saying about “a thorn in the flesh”. A normal thorn in the flesh for the average human would bring about immeasurable pain. Acka’s bite now directly took off a huge piece of meat!

If it was any other warrior, even if it was a Stellar-level one, they would have no chance of tearing a piece of meat off the Black Flood Dragon. After all, the Black Flood Dragon was in peak Stellar-level condition. Not only was its outer skin tougher than steel, but its internal organs were also sturdy and strong. Furthermore, the cylindrical shape of the tubes made it difficult for someone to take a bite. That was why the Black Flood Dragon was not worried about Hong Dali and the rest entering its throat.

However, Acka was different.

Acka was the child of the Green Phoenix! There were only things that it did not want to eat, not things that it could not eat.

Acka bit off a piece of the Black Flood Dragon’s insides. It was odorous and bloody. However, after Acka carefully chewed it for a while, it realized that the taste was decent…

Then, it circled around Hong Dali and chirped away. It was evident that it wanted a few more bites…

Furthermore, this was obviously meat from a high-quality Black Flood Dragon about to evolve. After taking such a small bite, the faint glow emitted by Acka suddenly increased in brightness. It further illuminated the surroundings!

“Human! You have angered me!”

As Hong Dali was about to order Acka to take another bite, he suddenly heard a violent and angry roar.

The Black Flood Dragon was truly enraged!

Its enraged voice was rough and hoarse. It was not a pleasant thing to listen to. Furthermore, the pronunciation was off and it sounded very weird.

Hong Dali stopped and looked around. “Aiyaya, this big brother. You pissed me off first. I’m sorry, my little baby seems interested in your meat…”

“Human, you dare to harm me. You’re asking for death!” The Black Flood Dragon’s voice grew increasingly enraged. At the same time, Hong Dali and the rest felt like the sky and earth were spinning around. The angry Black Flood Dragon started rolling around in the water!

Hong Dali did not know that in the outside world, the entire Lake Ze An was filled with huge tidal waves. Dark clouds gathered in the sky, as violent winds howled. It looked like the end of the world.

Stunned by the Black Flood Dragon’s massive size and its tumbling motion in Lake Ze An, all those waiting around the lake in the distance were instantly terrified.

As waves continued to occupy the lake, they began to retreat with pale faces.

Razer and the rest who were monitoring the situation frowned. “Damn it. What did this Hong Dali do? Why is the Black Flood Dragon so angry?!”

“It’s difficult to say.” Fang and Gahon were confused too.

As they said that, a huge wave almost thirty meters tall had hit land. It slammed into a few Black-level Honorary Aristocrats who were closer to the lake. The rest all sprinted away. They did not stop until they were at least 500 meters away.

Inside the Black Flood Dragon’s body.

Hong Dali and the rest held on tightly to the wound created by Acka. No matter how hard the Black Flood Dragon tumbled, they did not let go.

A thorn in the flesh would cause intense pain even if lightly touched. How painful must this be when they all grabbed onto the wound?

The harder the Black Flood Dragon struggled, the more painful the wound from Acka became. Although the wound was small, it caused unbearable pain. The more unbearable it was, the more worried the Black Flood Dragon became.

After a while, the Black Flood Dragon became dizzy from the pain. As it was preparing for the final push, Hong Dali’s words made it stop moving.

As Hong Dali got a chance to regain his breath, he quietly said, “This big brother, I always heard about how corrosive stomach acid is. It can corrode even rocks completely, let alone humans. I’m just wondering, what kind of situation will it be if your stomach acid got into your own wound?”

After he heard that, the Black Flood Dragon was stunned. It dared not move another inch.

It was only thinking about relying on its strong stomach acid to completely corrode Hong Dali and the rest. However, he forgot about that huge issue.

Its stomach contained a special membrane to protect against stomach acid. However, the membrane was gone around the wound. Judging by what the human said, it would be worse than adding salt to the wound if the stomach acid really got there, right? In that case, the injury might cost it the chance to push for an evolution. That would be a huge loss.

After he realized that, the Black Flood Dragon finally calmed down for the first time. He said, “Human, state your conditions.”

Everything in this world could be negotiated. In the instances where negotiations failed, it just meant that there were too little chips on the table.

Hong Dali saw that the Black Flood Dragon had eased its attitude, so he did not push things. He liked animals and was happy with peaceful discussions. “Big bro, you like to joke. We don’t have any conditions to raise with someone as powerful as you. Furthermore, this environment is decent. Even if we have to live here, this place seems fine. Do you welcome us here?”

Hong Dali always had a happy-go-lucky policy. He had no selfish desires. Hence, resting here seemed like a good plan.

The Black Flood Dragon never anticipated such a response.

The humans did not want to leave now. What made the Black Flood Dragon most annoyed was that the damn humans could bite through its internal organs. They became real thorns in its flesh. However, there was nothing it could do. Although it had reached the peak of Stellar-level and was only one step away from evolving into a true dragon, his hands were tied by that final step.

Even though the Black Flood Dragon was so powerful that even the strongest operatives of the High Nobles did not want to fight it head-on, it still could not control its internal organs to kill its enemies.

Hong Dali made full use of that advantage. Although this Black Flood Dragon was incredibly powerful, there was nothing it could do to them.

The Black Flood Dragon spoke again. His attitude now was more helpless and humble. “Alright, human. You win. What is it going to take for you to leave my body? If it’s within my abilities, I’ll satisfy your requests fully.”

Seeing that the Black Flood Dragon had given in, Hong Dali also dropped the act. After all, he had serious business to attend to. He could not waste so much time, as things would get complicated if the High Nobles created troubles for the New Earth. He smiled and said, “Big bro, you’re too kind. We just wanted to rest here for a while. However, we got swallowed by you instead. You have disrupted our sleep. How do you plan on compensating us?”
