Invincible Snake Emperor-Chapter 83 - 82: Decision to Take Revenge on the Mutated Bloodsucker Snake

"You only want the Snake Blood?"

Meilin was slightly surprised to hear this. If that was the case, then this matter was certainly open for discussion.

Last night, He Zhennan had not only brought the Supreme Profound Snake's gallbladder but had also given her the other organs after dissecting the entire snake.

The Supreme Profound Snake was a treasure in every sense of the word. Its Snake Gallbladder, Snake Blood, venom, meat, tongue, and Snake Skin were all priceless and possessed immense medicinal value.

Naturally, the most valuable parts were the first three: the Snake Gallbladder, Snake Blood, and venom. The Supreme Profound Snake's blood had the miraculous effect of slowing the body's aging process, cleansing it of toxins, and returning it to a state of peak health. Its venom, meanwhile, could be used to create antivenom. The venom of a Supreme Profound Snake, in particular, was dozens of times more expensive than gold.

Meilin had originally been thinking of organizing a sale for the Supreme Profound Snake's organs, which she was sure would attract a lot of interest. She never expected that before the idea could even take shape, a major client would show up at her door, eager to buy.

Shen Qingshan said with a look of certainty, "That's right. I only need a portion of the Snake Blood to save a life. It hasn't been disposed of yet, has it?"

A smile spread across Meilin's face as she nodded. "As a matter of fact, I have the Supreme Profound Snake's blood right here. I'm just not sure what price Boss Shen is willing to offer."

Shen Qingshan exchanged a glance with his daughter, joy visible in both their eyes. He immediately said, "Name your price. Everything is negotiable."

"I understand. Please wait a moment, Boss Shen. I need to make a phone call. The truth is, the Supreme Profound Snake isn't mine."

Meilin gave a slight bow and turned to leave.

'The Supreme Profound Snake isn't hers?' Shen Qingshan was puzzled. 'Then whose could it be? Don't tell me it's the Snake King's?'

He shivered at the mere thought of that snake with its vast Divine Techniques.

The Tu Family was currently like the morning sun at eight or nine o'clock—full of youthful vigor and vitality. Wen Qiu's body had been given a new lease on life, and the whole family was in high spirits. She was preparing to cook a few of her specialty dishes today to treat her daughter.

Tu Xiaoyue was helping her mom out as her assistant when her phone suddenly rang. After a brief conversation, she headed toward the backyard.

When she reached the backyard, Tu Xiaoyue was speechless. A Silver White Snake was riding on the back of their pet dog, Xiaobai. A snake walking a dog in the backyard... How absurd.

"Xiao'an, it's Sister Meilin on the phone."

She rolled her eyes and placed the phone next to the Silver White Snake's head.

Just then, the snake spoke. "Hello... is that Sister Meilin?"

If anyone were to witness this scene, their worldview would be completely shattered, to the point they would start questioning their own existence.

'What the hell kind of creature is this? A venomous snake that can answer a phone and speak human words?'

"Xiao'an, we've got a huge deal! A big boss from the provincial capital wants the Supreme Profound Snake's blood, and he said we can name our price."

Meilin's slightly sweet voice came through the phone. Upon hearing this, Tu Xiao'an's eyes instantly lit up.

'I can name my price? This really is a big boss, a fat lamb ready for the slaughter.'

According to market prices, a rare Snake Species would cost over one million. A once-in-centuries rare Snake Species like the Supreme Profound Snake would be worth at least three to five million.

But here was the problem: the other party only wanted the Supreme Profound Snake's blood, which made the price hard to calculate.

"Sister Meilin, what do you think is a suitable price?"

Business really wasn't Tu Xiao'an's strong suit. Besides, he was just a snake now. Was a snake supposed to negotiate a business deal with a person?

That would be utterly ridiculous.

"Hmm..."

Meilin mulled it over, carefully weighing the options before speaking. "How about one million?"

Tu Xiao'an was surprised. "Sister, isn't that a bit too ruthless?"

'The whole snake was worth around three to five million, but a single portion of its blood is going for one million? That seems a bit exorbitant.'

On the other end of the line, Meilin flashed the typical smile of a cunning merchant. "Xiao'an, the price of an item is determined by market demand. My price is actually quite gentle."

Given how desperate Shen Qingshan looked to get the Supreme Profound Snake's blood, who else would she fleece but him? Besides, Meilin wasn't jacking up the price excessively. After all, the man needed it to save his own life. If she had asked for five million, he probably would have paid up obediently.

Still, in business, it was wise to leave some room for leeway. It was only a portion of Snake Blood, after all. One million was already a very high price.

"Sister Meilin, I'll leave it to you. As for the other organs of the Supreme Profound Snake, you can decide what to do with them. No need to consult me specifically."

Tu Xiao'an's original intention was just to use the Supreme Profound Snake to cure his mom's illness. Now that she was better, he could even make money off it. Capturing this snake had been an incredibly valuable move.

Besides the Snake Gallbladder and Snake Blood, the snake's many other organs were all worth Big Money.

'I'm rich, I'm rich!' The snake's pupils gleamed with a comical, money-grubbing light.

After the call ended, Tu Xiao'an looked at his sister with glittering Snake Pupils and said happily, "Sis, our family is really on a lucky streak."

Xiaoyue looked at the Silver White Snake, puzzled. "What lucky streak?"

"Soon, very soon, our family will have an income of one million."

With that, Tu Xiao'an explained the situation to his sister. As Xiaoyue listened, her eyes curved into crescents, and she beamed with joy.

One million. One million was an astronomical figure for their family. To be able to obtain it so easily now felt unreal.

The human and the snake began to giggle foolishly in the backyard. It seemed the good days for the Tu Family were truly about to begin.

After his sister went back inside, still buzzing with excitement, an inexplicable coldness flickered in Tu Xiao'an's Snake Pupils.

'Now that things at home are settled, it's time to take care of my own business.'

The Mutated Bloodsucker Snake. He was preparing to go up She Mountain tomorrow to get revenge on the Vampire Snake and devour it.

Devouring it was a must, for two reasons. The first was naturally revenge. The second was that Tu Xiao'an had asked his system about upgrading his Level when he was bored.

He had asked how he could gain the ability to release Thunder, just like the Electric Bee King.

This was crucial. After all, he now had an incredibly badass identity: the Snake King.

The people of Bai Town all believed that he, this snake, could control Thunder. Who would have guessed that the two bolts of lightning on She Mountain had actually come from an evolved Wasp?

If Tu Xiao'an could control Thunder himself, his power would skyrocket, and he would be more worthy of the name.

The system's answer was simple: he needed to find and devour an Awakened Snake Species to evolve and gain the ability to control Thunder.

Awakened Snake Species. This was a whole new realm. These venomous snakes had gained sentience, their intelligence was like that of a Demon, they understood Cultivation, and they possessed the power to easily kill a human.

If snakes were previously divided into three types—common, rare, and precious—then the next tier up was the Awakened Snake Species.

They were no longer mortal snakes.

Therefore, Tu Xiao'an had a compelling reason to seek revenge on the Vampire Snake. The Mutated Bloodsucker Snake was an Awakened Snake Species, a creature that struck fear into the hearts of Bai Town's Snake Catchers.

Furthermore, this ferocious venomous snake lived by drinking blood. If it was left alone to grow stronger, it might even come down from the mountain to prey on humans.

Given the Vampire Snake's ferocious and cruel nature, if it could drink human blood, it would never choose to drink the blood of livestock.

The only reason the Vampire Snake was still holed up on She Mountain was because it wasn't powerful enough yet.
