205: Wait a little longer

Senior Sister Red Silk was originally very excited and ready to make a move, but Jiang Donghua immediately pulled her down and said.

"We still have to wait!"

When Red Silk heard they had to wait, she immediately became displeased, almost jumping up, her eyes shining as if she had discovered some incredible treasure.

"Wait until they finish mating?!"

She slapped Jiang Donghua's hand away, her brows tightly furrowed.

"Won't that mean we'll be too late? What if they finish and just run away? What if someone else snatches the prize?!"

Jiang Donghua was amused by her reaction and almost laughed out loud, but he kept a straight face, reached out, and pressed down on her shoulder again, his tone like someone soothing an agitated cat.

"Senior Sister, calm down. Feel your forehead."

Red Silk glared at him suspiciously, but still subconsciously raised her hand to touch her forehead.

"What for? I don't have a fever!"

"If you don't have a fever, why are you talking nonsense?"

Jiang Donghua sighed.

"Those red things are either mutated flesh and blood of demonic beasts or the melted remains of human bodies. How can our physical bodies withstand that kind of violent energy? Do you think you are a Profound Thunder Flood Dragon, capable of swallowing thunder and fire without even a burp?"

Red Silk pouted, clearly unconvinced, but she stopped clamoring to rush forward.

She crossed her arms, tapping her foot impatiently on the ground, but her eyes couldn't help but glance toward the two Flood Dragons in the distance.

"So tell me, what are we supposed to do after they finish?"

Seeing that she was finally willing to listen, Jiang Donghua's lips curled up in a barely noticeable smile, and he lowered his voice.

"Once they finish mating, they will enter a brief period of weakness. Especially the Profound Thunder Flood Dragon; it is of the lightning element, and forcefully merging with the earth-element fire seed will inevitably cause its internal energy to become chaotic. As for the Yellow Rock Flood Dragon, due to excessive depletion, it will temporarily be unable to control the power of the earth."

"More importantly, after these two types of unusual beasts mate, rare and exotic spiritual flowers are bound to appear."

Red Silk's eyes lit up again, this time with a cunning light.

"Oh—! So at that time, we can!"

She didn't finish her sentence, but her fingers were already rubbing together excitedly, wearing an expression that clearly said, 'I understand, I understand.'

Jiang Donghua nodded.

"Exactly. If we act then, the risk will be minimal."

Red Silk suddenly leaned in, almost pressing against him, her sparkling eyes full of eagerness.

"So how long will they be busy for?"

Jiang Donghua choked slightly on her straightforward question, his ears feeling slightly warm, but he answered calmly.

"According to ancient records, the mating process for high-level Flood Dragons takes anywhere from a few hours to several dozen hours."

Upon hearing this, Red Silk's face immediately fell.

"That long?!"

Jiang Donghua was helpless.

"Senior Sister, be patient."

Red Silk grunted twice, plopped down on the ground, propped her chin on her hand, and stared into the distance, muttering softly.

"Fine, fine, we'll wait. But, Donghua, you seem to know a lot, huh? Even the duration of a Flood Dragon's business?"

She suddenly turned her head, winked at him, and smiled mischievously.

He silently looked away, pretending not to hear.

Several hours quietly passed, accompanied only by the roaring sounds of the two Flood Dragons.

It was unclear whether they were comfortable or in pain, but either way, they just kept roaring!

Jiang Donghua was originally sitting cross-legged, regulating his breath, when his nose twitched slightly, and his brows instantly furrowed.

"This scent is wrong!"

He suddenly opened his eyes, only to find that Red Silk beside him already had flushed cheeks and her breathing was noticeably faster than usual.

Her originally lively eyes were now covered by a faint mist, and she was unconsciously fanning herself by tugging at her collar with her fingertips, muttering.

"Why is it suddenly so hot!"

Alarm bells rang in Jiang Donghua's heart. The ancient texts never mentioned that Flood Dragons would emit such a strange aura while mating!

He quickly held his breath, grabbed Red Silk's shoulder, and urgently whispered.

"Senior Sister, hold your breath! This mist is strange!"

But Red Silk's reaction was half a beat too slow.

She looked up groggily, her usually sharp features now softened like melted honey, and she even tilted her head and smiled at him.

"Donghua, why are you leaning so close?"

This is bad!

Cold sweat instantly broke out on Jiang Donghua's back.

Only then did he notice that the mist throughout the entire valley had, at some point, taken on a faint pink hue.

The intertwined figures of the Flood Dragons in the distance were faintly visible in the mist, and every time they writhed, they stirred up more enchanting, scarlet haze. Even more terrifying, the cries of the demonic beasts coming from all directions were growing increasingly bizarre.

The whimpers of the Rock Wolves were mixed with sticky panting, the long cries of the Iron-Winged Eagles suddenly turned into trembling shrieks, and even the fish in the distant stream leaped frantically out of the water, splashing abnormally.

"Flood Dragons are inherently lustful. This mist must be capable of inducing desire in living creatures."

Jiang Donghua grit his teeth and pulled a Purity Pill from his robes. Just as he was about to give it to Red Silk, she suddenly leaned close to his neck, taking a deep breath, her hot breath puffing directly onto his collarbone.

"You smell so good!"

"Senior Sister! Snap out of it!"

He pinched her chin and forcefully shoved the pill into her mouth, but Red Silk countered by grabbing his wrist.

This woman, who was usually decisive and quick, now had soft fingertips, yet her strength was astonishing. Her reddened eyes showed a hint of grievance.

"You scolded me~"

The pill dropped to the ground during their struggle.

Jiang Donghua watched helplessly as Red Silk's pupils gradually dilated, the emotions surging within them making his scalp tingle.

Just as he was considering whether to knock her unconscious with a chop to the neck, Red Silk suddenly pressed her entire body against him.

"Boom!!!"

A black bolt of thunder struck the rock where they were hiding, and the scattering debris finally caused Red Silk's movements to freeze.

Jiang Donghua took the opportunity to drag her and roll into a deep rock crevice. Only then did he realize that the two Flood Dragons had finished their entanglement at some point and were now furiously attacking their surroundings indiscriminately!

Lightning Light chaoticly exploded between the scales of the Profound Thunder Flood Dragon, and the tail of the Yellow Rock Flood Dragon smashed three hills. They had actually been affected by their own aphrodisiac mist and were now trapped in the frenzied after-effects of mating!

"So that's how it is."

Jiang Donghua looked at Red Silk, who was still squirming in his arms, and suddenly let out a wry laugh.

"The ancient texts only recorded the duration of the Flood Dragons' mating, but didn't mention what happens after they finish..."

Before he could finish, Red Silk suddenly bit down on his shoulder.

Jiang Donghua groaned, finally unable to endure it, and pressed his joined fingers heavily onto an acupuncture point on the back of her neck.

Red Silk's body went limp. Before she completely passed out, she mumbled indistinctly.

"You bastard Junior Brother, you actually hit my paralyzing point!"

Jiang Donghua ignored the tooth marks on his shoulder that were throbbing faintly. He grabbed Red Silk's chin, forcefully pried open her mouth, and quickly took out several pills from his storage ring—a Purity Pill, an Ice Soul Pill, and a Soul Calming Powder—shoving them all in at once.

"Senior Sister, pardon my offense!"

He shouted softly, pressed both palms against her back, and spiritual energy surged in like a tide, helping her quickly refine the medicinal power.

Red Silk was burning hot, and her skin was tinged with an abnormal blush, but as the pills dissolved, a cool sensation gradually spread throughout her body. Her tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed, and her rapid breathing gradually stabilized.

Ten minutes later, the haziness finally receded from her eyes, replaced by her familiar sharp alertness.

And the very first thing she did was raise her hand and viciously poke Jiang Donghua on the forehead!

"Jiang Donghua! Are you getting bold?!"

Jiang Donghua was poked backward. Before he could explain, Red Silk grabbed his collar and gritted her teeth.

"I wanted to kiss you, and you dared to reject me?! First shoving pills down my throat, then hitting my pressure point—what, am I, Red Silk, not good enough for you?!"

He was speechless for a moment, his ears turning uncontrollably red.

Seeing his reaction, Red Silk snorted coldly, released his collar, clapped her hands, stood up, and stretched her limbs.

"Alright, the medicine worked well. Thanks."

She glanced at him, a mischievous smile playing on her lips.

"But if you dare hit my pressure point again, I'll strike you with lightning."

Jiang Donghua sighed helplessly, stood up, and brushed the dust off his robes.

"Senior Sister, that was the influence of the Flood Dragons' aphrodisiac mist just now. It wasn't your true intention."

Red Silk raised an eyebrow, looking at him with a half-smile.

"Oh? How do you know it wasn't my true intention?"

He decided to shut up.

Seeing him at a loss for words, Red Silk was in high spirits. She turned to look at the two Flood Dragons still in a state of frenzy in the distance, the fighting spirit rekindled in her eyes.

"Alright, they've been thrashing around long enough. It's our turn to act."

Jiang Donghua nodded, his gaze calm.

"Yes, proceed according to plan."

Red Silk stretched her wrists, Lightning Light flickering at her fingertips, and she smiled wildly and openly.

"Let's go! Time to seize the treasure!"
