Invincible Snake Emperor-Chapter 139 - 137: Reduced to a Pet at Birth

A Two-headed Snake. A Two-headed Snake.

Tu Xiao'an stared strangely at the Two-headed Snake on the floor, its two heads swaying menacingly. He didn't know what to feel. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

He'd seen his fair share of the world. He was once a famous young Snake Catcher in Bai Town and had seen all sorts of venomous snakes. But to be honest, this was the first time he had ever seen a snake with two heads.

Of course, Two-headed Snakes weren't nonexistent. They had appeared in the world before, resulting from the abnormal development of twin embryos in a single egg. Due to environmental factors, a malformed embryo would develop, resulting in a snake with a forked neck and two heads. It was an extremely rare Snake Species.

Once on She Mountain, a Snake Catcher had found a very small Two-headed Snake. But that snake had a head at each end of its body, rather than a forked neck. Both heads could control the body, which was quite peculiar.

This abnormality was identified in a creature known as the blunt-tailed two-headed snake, caused by contaminated genes or an error during chromosome replication or pairing, which resulted in the growth of two heads.

Then there's India. The people of that country worship snakes, viewing them as incarnations of a "God." They're even more fanatical than the people of Bai Town. The locals have a profound snake culture; for an Indian, killing a snake, intentionally or not, is a heinous crime.

In one of their Temples, a great snake with five heads once appeared. Its five heads were like the five fingers of a hand; from a distance, it resembled a giant palm.

So, a mere Two-headed Snake was nothing special. However, the one before him was a different story entirely. It had been designated by the system as a hyper-evolved Snake Species.

It had been forcefully mutated and evolved by a strike of Thunder.

It had become an Awakened Creature in a single leap, like a carp jumping over the Dragon Gate.

Its aura alone was incomparably violent and frigid, even more terrifying than the Mutated Bloodsucker Snake from before.

It was incubated within a human body, formed from twelve snakes merging into one, and then Thunderstruck, mutating and evolving. Its birth was simply inconceivable.

A multitude of factors had forged this hyper-evolved Mutated Two-headed Snake.

One could say it was a unique existence in this world.

It was unlikely that another Snake Species like this would ever be born again.

"HISS... HISS..."

The Mutated Two-headed Snake was Spiritual and Fierce, its appearance outlandish. Its two heads swayed with wild abandon, and it carried itself with a disdainful air, as if it viewed all other living things as mere ants.

It spotted the Gold and Silver Snake floating in the air. A vicious light glinted in its two pairs of Snake Gazes, and it opened its mouths to reveal sharp fangs.

'Hmph. How absurd.'

Tu Xiao'an sensed the Two-headed Snake's hostility and provocation. He looked at it with cold indifference. 'No matter how high your starting point is, no matter how strong your bloodline, even as an Awakened Creature, you're still just Level 10.'

'And you dare act so insolently before me?'

The floating Gold and Silver Snake suddenly appeared right in front of the Two-headed Snake.

"ROAR..."

A cold light shot from the Two-headed Snake's two pairs of eyes as it instantly regarded the Gold and Silver Snake as prey.

Tu Xiao'an's Snake Gaze immediately hardened, and the kingly Qi around his body surged.

He activated his dominance ability, and the kingly Qi enveloped the Mutated Two-headed Snake. In an instant, the Two-headed Snake's disdainful posture vanished, replaced by a look of utter disbelief.

'This Gold and Silver Snake is even stronger than me?'

'Kneel!'

Before him, what snake would dare claim supremacy? Let alone this newborn Two-headed Snake.

'It might have great potential and could become an invincible existence in the future, but that's for later. Only those who live long enough to grow strong can be called true powerhouses.'

The Two-headed Snake began to back away, its two heads rearing back. The Gold and Silver Snake gave it an incredibly strong sense of crisis, to the point it couldn't even resist.

The Gold and Silver Snake before it seemed like an undefeatable existence.

'Still not kneeling? Submit to me!'

With a great mental roar, Tu Xiao'an's body suddenly swelled to five meters long, soaring upward. The kingly Qi from his body crashed down like a mountain, overwhelming and crushing everything in its path.

The Two-headed Snake was suddenly filled with terror. Seeing the instantly enlarged Gold and Silver Snake, it no longer dared to resist. It prostrated itself on the ground, pressing its two heads to the floor as if welcoming an emperor.

It had just had its domineering birth, only to be slapped in the face moments later.

'If your Level were higher, I would have devoured you to evolve again. A pity that as you are now, you're not even worthy.'

With a thought, Tu Xiao'an's powerful Consciousness Power enveloped the Mutated Two-headed Snake. This snake's bloodline was very high, but because its Level was too low, devouring it wouldn't be very beneficial. It would be better to take it as a pet and cultivate it properly.

'A snake like this that can grow two heads... it might not be impossible for it to grow a third in the future.'

'Submit!'

It was a mere Level 10, and on top of that, it was already suppressed by Tu Xiao'an's aura. It was completely unable to resist.

WHOOSH...

The Two-headed Snake instantly vanished from its spot.

The next second, Tu Xiao'an summoned it right back out.

"Master."

A cold voice sounded in Tu Xiao'an's mind. This hyper-evolved Mutated Two-headed Snake was only Level 10 and didn't yet have the ability to speak human words.

"Good. You are this Snake King's first Snake Race pet."

The Two-headed Snake really had bad luck. It had just undergone a hyper-evolved mutation only to be instantly reduced to a pet.

It hadn't even gotten a chance to act cool yet.

Tu Xiao'an took the Two-headed Snake as a pet. He never would have thought that by dealing with a Snake Embryo, he would end up with a new pet.

But it was an unexpected windfall.

At the same time, the mystery in Tu Xiao'an's heart only deepened. Clearly, what Shu Yao had been carrying was no ordinary Snake Embryo.

Even without being Thunderstruck, the victor that survived from among the twelve Black Snakes would have been nothing to scoff at.

It would have been a mutated Snake Species at the very least.

One could say that the genes inherited by these twelve little Black Snakes were incredibly powerful. They were definitely the offspring of an Awakened Snake.

Just how had Shu Yao become pregnant with the Snake Embryo? There wasn't the slightest trace of an Awakened Snake's aura in this room.

He desperately wanted to know everything.

Just then, the door to the suite was smashed open.

A young man strode in like a meteor, his hair moving as if in an unfelt wind. He seemed extremely agitated.

"Haha... My child has been born! I can feel it!"

The young man's eyes immediately fell upon the Mutated Two-headed Snake on the floor, and they began to shine. "Excellent! It seems the mutation is complete. And it's a Two-headed Snake! Even stronger than I expected."

Huh...?

"Why is there another snake?" The young man was very surprised to see a Gold and Silver Snake next to it, and his gaze shifted to it.

"No, this one isn't my child. It has no blood connection to me."

The young man stared intently at the Gold and Silver Snake, sensing that it was extraordinary.

Tu Xiao'an was even more surprised. The man who had suddenly burst in gave off an incredibly demonic aura. He was astonished. 'What a powerful Snake Race aura! Yes, that's right... This young man has a terrifying Snake Race aura. What is he saying? That the Two-headed Snake is his child? Could it be...'

'This person looks a little familiar, like I've seen him somewhere before.'

A flash of inspiration struck Tu Xiao'an. His Snake Gaze shifted to a corner of the room, and a photograph flew to him as if it had grown wings.

The photograph showed a couple snuggling close together. Wasn't the boy in the photo the very same man standing before him now, just more mature?
