Chapter 365: The Cunning Azure Jade Python

"Is that Cloud Chasing Dragon trying to eat that snake?" Qin Ming nodded. Based on his understanding of the Cloud Chasing Dragon, snakes were indeed among its food sources.

The Cloud Chasing Dragon was naturally immune to poison and could even spit poison for attacks; it was very fond of eating snake-type Demonic Beasts.

At this moment, the Cloud Chasing Dragon and the Azure Jade Python had already started fighting. Judging by the situation, the Azure Jade Python had no desire to fight the Cloud Chasing Dragon at all. However, since the Cloud Chasing Dragon could fly, the Azure Jade Python couldn't outrun it, and it was forced to engage in battle.

"The Azure Jade Python will likely lose," Qin Ming judged inwardly as he watched the battle unfold.

Although the Azure Jade Python was also a Martial King Demonic Beast, it had encountered its natural predator, the Cloud Chasing Dragon, and lacked any Battle Intent. From the very beginning of the fight, the Cloud Chasing Dragon held a significant advantage.

"However, the Azure Jade Python is not to be trifled with," Qin Ming said calmly, recalling the information he had on the Azure Jade Python.

The Azure Jade Python was an extremely insidious snake, and it was very likely that it still had some hidden trump cards.

The Cloud Chasing Dragon was seen desperately clawing at the Azure Jade Python, trying to snatch it up into the air, while the Azure Jade Python carefully and cautiously snapped back, looking for an opportunity to bite the Cloud Chasing Dragon and bring it down.

However, the Cloud Chasing Dragon clearly had plenty of experience dealing with snakes. Although it hadn't managed to grab the Azure Jade Python, its long claws left wound after wound on the Azure Jade Python, and soon, blood was flowing ceaselessly from its body.

"Is the Cloud Chasing Dragon trying to make the Azure Jade Python bleed to death?" Qin Ming guessed. "However, would such a cunning Demonic Beast as the Azure Jade Python be dealt with so easily?"

Indeed, the Azure Jade Python no longer fought the Cloud Chasing Dragon head-on, carefully hiding behind a tree. The Cloud Chasing Dragon could do nothing about it and could only keep a close watch on it.

"The Azure Jade Python is injured now, and the Cloud Chasing Dragon will definitely not let it heal in peace. If the Azure Jade Python doesn't heal, it will sooner or later bleed to death. Staying like this is disadvantageous for the Azure Jade Python; it remains to be seen how it will break this deadlock," Qin Ming watched expectantly.

The Azure Jade Python glanced at the Cloud Chasing Dragon, then coiled around a nearby large tree. It quickly ascended the tree, continuing to look for opportunities to attack the Cloud Chasing Dragon.

"Why did the Azure Jade Python change trees? Is there something different about that one?" Qin Ming was a bit puzzled. He really couldn't see any difference between the two trees and didn't know why the Azure Jade Python had chosen to switch trees to continue the fight.

"Hiss, hiss." The Azure Jade Python lunged suddenly at the Cloud Chasing Dragon. The Cloud Chasing Dragon, having been on guard, dodged and resumed its previous attacks, seemingly intent on grabbing the Azure Jade Python into mid-air or wearing it out to death.

"The Azure Jade Python is done for," Qin Ming shook his head and judged.

Indeed, the blood on the Azure Jade Python's body continued to flow, and it soon began to tire, its attacks losing the vigor they had just moments before.

Seeing the Azure Jade Python's state, the Cloud Chasing Dragon let out a joyful shriek.

Finally, the Azure Jade Python slowly collapsed, gasping violently on the ground. The Cloud Chasing Dragon waited for a moment, and seeing that the Azure Jade Python was no longer moving, it immediately pounced down.

Just when Qin Ming thought the battle was over like this…

"Hiss, hiss…"

The Azure Jade Python suddenly sprang up and coiled around the treetops. Somehow, the space between the two trees was filled with sturdy vines, which entangled the Cloud Chasing Dragon.

The Cloud Chasing Dragon was shocked and panicked. It tried to attack the Azure Jade Python, but unfortunately, the Azure Jade Python had already crawled to a place where the Cloud Chasing Dragon could not reach. No matter how the Cloud Chasing Dragon attacked, it was to no avail.

At the same time, the vines tightened more and more; the more the Cloud Chasing Dragon struggled, the more firmly it was bound.

Qin Ming shook his head: "I didn't expect that the Azure Jade Python would actually win in the end. This Azure Jade Python is too cunning; even when in a desperate situation, it was constantly looking for an opportunity to turn the tables."

The area around the Azure Jade Python was filled with low trees; only these two trees were exceptionally tall and sturdy. The Azure Jade Python had clearly been cornered by the Cloud Chasing Dragon.

Originally, if the Cloud Chasing Dragon had only had some patience, the Azure Jade Python would have eventually been its dinner. But now, not only did it fail to eat the Azure Jade Python, it was instead about to become the Azure Jade Python's dinner itself.
