The horned lightning snake moved at an extremely fast speed to attack, and its fangs reached Xiang Shaoyun's neck almost instantly. Even though Xiang Shaoyun was already bracing himself for an attack, he still couldn't cleanly dodge and was forced to cover his neck with his arm.

His arm was bit, and he hissed in pain, the blood instantly seeping out. His first instinct was to throw the snake away before killing it. But he quickly suppressed that thought.

”You are holding nothing back, huh? That hurts,” said Xiang Shaoyun as he resisted the pain.

He was one who had resisted the pain of being struck by lightning. This much pain was still within his tolerance level. The horned lightning snake continued biting into his arm with its sharp fangs. As it tried to chomp the entire arm off, it left a deep wound that reached his bone.

”Hey, little fellow, I don't intend to harm you. If you are not willing to come with me, just leave. I won't let you sever my arm,” said Xiang Shaoyun, using his internal energy to stop the snake from biting off his arm. Even so, he still resisted the urge to harm it.

”Young master, have you gone insane? Beat it up and teach it some discipline!” Devouring Ghost cried out in alarm.

”Yes, Young Master Xiang. Don't joke around with your life,” said Du Xuanhao.

Xiang Shaoyun shook his head. ”No, I believe in its intelligence. It can understand that I am sincere in not wis.h.i.+ng it any harm.”

”Your highness, it has an extraordinary bloodline. Please don't harm it,” begged Jin Wo. Jin Wo was a gold serpentine crocodile and had great intimacy with all snake races. Thus, it was natural for him to not wish the horned lightning snake harm.

”Don't worry, I won't harm it,” Xiang Shaoyun promised.

”What are you waiting for? Let go of his highness!” Jin Wo berated the horned lightning snake, releasing his Demon Emperor aura.

The horned lightning snake gave it some thought and finally released Xiang Shaoyun's arm before quickly fleeing.

”Beast, trying to flee after harming my young master?” Devouring Ghost shouted and started giving chase.

”Devouring Ghost, come back. Let it go,” Xiang Shaoyun shouted.

Devouring Ghost stopped and turned around. He asked, ”Young master, since it has survived under the nourishment of silver lightning energy, it has the potential to become a great helper in the future. Are you going to let it go just like this?”

”Yes. Let it be,” said Xiang Shaoyun with a wave of his hand.

He did want to tame the horned lightning snake, but he did not wish to harm it. Perhaps that was because they both possessed the power of silver lightning. The horned lightning snake continued fleeing, but not long after, it turned around to look at Xiang Shaoyun. There was a complicated emotion in its eyes.

Xiang Shaoyun was still standing there with electrical currents running all over his body, maintaining the incredibly regal and majestic purple dragon around him. The horned lightning snake hesitated for a long time before it turned around and returned to Xiang Shaoyun.

A look of pleasant surprise appeared on Xiang Shaoyun's face. He had a feeling the horned lightning snake had made up its mind. Sure enough, after the horned lightning snake arrived before him, it flew a circle around him before emanating a silvery radiance from its scales.
