"What is the matter with these two children? If you rely on eating humans to survive, I cannot allow you to stay," Jiang Chen said, his voice turning cold as he looked at the two children on the ground.
The giant snake quickly shook its head, hissing in protest, its eyes filled with a sense of grievance, much like a wronged little girl.
"Mr. Jiang, these two children were likely thrown into the snake's den at Ling Snake Ridge. According to the legend of Ling Snake Ridge, if you offer a pair of young boys and girls to the Ling Snake, it will refrain from causing trouble. Recently, some superstitious locals found this pair of children," Zhang Fa explained. In this day and age, although such actions could be considered criminal, customs were hard to change, and Zhang Fa could do nothing about it. However, this was also why he had called Jiang Chen to deal with the Ling Snake.
Jiang Chen bent down; the two children only had some superficial injuries and were not in serious danger. Their breaths were steady, and there was a trace of Spiritual Energy flowing within them. Clearly, the giant snake had helped sustain their lives. Jiang Chen infused Spiritual Energy into the children, and soon they opened their eyes.
When they saw the giant snake, both children screamed and began to cry; they were only five or six years old and had never experienced such fright.
"They're fine now, Zhang Fa. Take them down the mountain and hand them over to the police. Then you can return to the temple; I will head back to Shanghai shortly," Jiang Chen instructed.
"Understood, Master. I'll take them down now; please be careful," Zhang Fa nodded and then led the two children away from the area.
Though frightened, the two children were also curious and couldn't help but look back at the giant snake and Jiang Chen.
"Grandpa, we're leaving! What about that big brother? Will the snake bite him?" the little boy asked in a babyish voice.
"It definitely won't bite him because that snake is big brother's pet, just like a little dog—very obedient," Zhang Fa explained with a smile. Since the Ling Snake was friendly toward Jiang Chen...
After Zhang Fa brought the two children down the mountain and left them at a nearby police station, he returned to his temple.
At that moment, Jiang Chen had already entered the giant snake's cave. The cave was deep and connected to an underground river.
The giant snake was quite polite to Jiang Chen; as soon as he entered the cave, it presented all its treasures—mostly women's accessories and jewelry.
Seeing these items made Jiang Chen smile. This giant snake had cultivated for at least several hundred years; its intelligence was comparable to that of a seven or eight-year-old girl, yet it still had an appreciation for beauty. However, given its rate of cultivation, it would likely never transform into human form in this lifetime to wear such jewelry.
Nonetheless, since it had encountered Jiang Chen this time, it could be considered a stroke of fate for it.
From how the giant snake treated those two children, it was clear that it was not cold-blooded but rather warm-hearted. This quality made Jiang Chen appreciate it even more; it was rare for a beast to maintain kindness. The fact that this giant snake possessed such a benevolent heart was truly remarkable, and how could Jiang Chen not bestow upon it an opportunity for transformation?
"I don't need these things; you don't have to search anymore," Jiang Chen said.
Upon hearing this, the giant snake obediently stopped moving and quietly watched Jiang Chen.
"Are you willing to follow me in cultivation?" Jiang Chen asked.
The giant snake nodded.
"Alright then! I will take you to my cultivation place!" With that, Jiang Chen took out the Jade Gourd and stored the giant snake inside. Without this Jade Gourd, it would have been inconvenient for him to bring the giant snake back to Quiet Villa.
