This is How is it possible that I ran into such a creature!?

Zhang Che was so shocked that he almost fell off the Purple Jade Condors back when he saw the appearance of the exotic beast pouncing at them.

Through the blurry water mist, he saw a long, familiar snake-like creature with a pair of straight horns on its head and a pair of claws on its body chasing the Purple Jade Condor.

-Why would there be a dragon here!?-

That was the first thought that came to Zhang Ches mind, nearly scaring him to death.

However, when he got a clear look at the exotic beasts appearance, he realized that this dragon was far different from the dragon he met in the west side of the beast world previously.

First, although this fellow had a pair of horns as well, they were only short, straight horns.

Not only that, a dragon would have four claws at the very least, while this exotic beast only had two.

Last but not least, this fellows figure was more like a python. Its head was round, not as sharp and defined as a dragons, and its tail was only starting to change to that of a fish, unlike a dragons tail which fully resembled a beautiful fishs tail.

Most importantly, although this exotic beast could ride the mist and clouds as well, it was obviously not accustomed to it. Its speed wasnt as fast as he imagined.

Could this be a python that just evolved into a flood dragon?

Zhang Che was a little unsure. He had never heard of exotic beasts that could evolve from species to species. Their species were usually determined at birth, unchanged even in adulthood. At the most theyd evolve to the limits of their species.

Hmm It could also be that this exotic beast was born a flood dragon to begin with.

Since it was only a flood dragon, Zhang Che wasnt as nervous as before, and got the Purple Jade Condor to maintain the speed it was flying at, allowing this exotic beast to slowly catch up to them.

==========

When this exotic beast came within the range of Zhang Ches data eyes, he was frozen with shock after he saw the information flashing before his eyes.

An A-Rank potential exotic beast!

This Cold Abyss Flood Dragon actually had A-Rank potential!

-I have to capture it as my pet. This fellow is too good to pass up on!-The thought gushed out from Zhang Ches heart almost immediately.

Zhang Che, who already had two pets, naturally knew that taming an exotic beast into becoming his pet was much more advantageous than killing it and obtaining its beast card.

Unlike subdued beasts, who were pretty much only able to follow orders mechanically, pets had their own souls and a mind of their own. Their combat capability would also be fully inherited, not needing to train and battle for a long time before being able to display their full battle prowess.

The most important point was that Zhang Che couldnt guarantee that hed get a beast card after killing the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon.

This was an exotic beast with A-Rank potential! If he was unlucky and didnt get a beast card, wouldnt he die from regret?

Also, another reason was that Zhang Che couldnt freaking use the beast card even if he was lucky enough to obtain one from this exotic beast! He was only a Tier Three beastmaster for now, and he needed to put some work in before advancing to Tier Four.

Pets, however, were different. There didnt seem to be a correlation between Zhang Ches beastmaster tier and the level of pets he could employ, only requiring him to have the capability to tame the exotic beast.

Back when Zhang Che tamed Hanxue, he was only a Tier Two beastmaster, while the latter was a three-star exotic beast!

Watching the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon slowly flying closer to him, Zhang Che grew fonder of it the longer he looked at it. He was almost treating it as his pet already.

Even so, this fellow was not Zhang Ches pet yet.

Lure it along, Ah Zi. Fly over to that mountain over there.

Although the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon was a four-star exotic beast, it was obviously no match for the Purple Jade Condor. After all, the Purple Jade Condor was dark gold-quality, with a difference of two quality tiers between them.

If this fellow was a gold-quality beast, Zhang Che would have had the Purple Jade Condor fly as fast as possible, and get as far away as possible. He definitely wouldnt harbor such extravagant hopes like he was doing now.

However, the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon was a beast who flourished in water. Once it realized that it couldnt win, it could just dive into the water below, leaving the Purple Jade Condor unable to do anything but watch.

Therefore, Zhang Che first had to pull the snake out of its hole, luring this fellow to the mountain ahead. There would only be a chance of taming it after he sealed its path of escape.

As for whether the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon would fall for his trick and chase him? Zhang Che felt that he had nothing to worry at all.

This fellow was only at silver quality, and yet it dared to sneak attack the Purple Jade Condor who was stronger than it. It was obviously a case of a newborn baby not knowing the terrors of the world, with only a bunch of energy and no brain. It was impossible for it not to fall for the trick.

As expected, after discovering its prey was actually flying away, the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon immediately gave chase, riding on that mass of cloud and mist. As it gave chase, it opened its mouth wide and let out a deep mooing sound, like an old cow calling its young.

The distance of several kilometers was covered in the blink of an eye. The Cold Abyss Flood Dragon didnt realize that it had fell into a trap at all. Seeing its prey ahead flying slower made it grew even more excited and it increased its speed, leaving Zhang Che greatly surprised.

-It seems like the short flight mentioned in this fellows characteristics wasnt that short, after all. Looking at the way its flying, it was very possible that it can fly for at least half an hour.- Zhang Che grew even more excited. The higher capability this Cold Abyss Flood Dragon showed, the happier Zhang Che was. This would be his third pet. Of course itd be better if it was stronger!

Mmm, Zhang Che was of the firm opinion that he could tame this Cold Abyss Flood Dragon.

When the Purple Jade Condor flew above the mountain, a hint of doubt finally flashed in the eyes of the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon. However, its blind courage outshone its capabilities in the end, and it immediately followed right behind.

Lower your altitude, Ah Zi. Let me get down first.

What followed was sure to be a bitter fight. Zhang Che surely didnt dare to continue staying on the Purple Jade Condors back. If that was the case, itd be good if he wasnt severely injured from being caught up in the battle, let alone taming the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon.

The Purple Jade Condor quickly descended. When it was only about a dozen meters above the tall trees on the mountain, Zhang Che equipped the Swamp Crocodile King armor and wielding the Rotten Ent Prowler whip, jumped off the Purple Jade Condors back for the second time today.

Zhang Che swung his right hand while he was in midair. The long whip instantly shot out a dozen meters and latched tightly onto the crown of a tall tree. After that, his body swung by momentum along the arc of the long whip, and he crashed into the top of the tree.

Naturally, Zhang Che didnt mind a collision of such degree. The Swamp Crocodile King armor perfectly dissipated all of the impact, leaving him unhurt.

Now, the key was whether the Purple Jade Condor could suppress the Cold Abyss Flood Dragon and hold it here, not allowing it to escape into the water.
