Bloodline Evolution System: Reign of the Dragon Snake

"Huh? Huh? What is happening?" Lotte scratched his head in confusion.

Every time Tang Yue muttered the illusion spell Startle, the elf ran into something or abruptly stopped for no reason.

By the time, they were on their fourth or fifth lap, the elf's pale face was pink with embarrassment.

"It's ok. It's ok." Tang Yue chuckled and urged him to hurry and walk along.

She did feel bad for the elf but she needed someone to practice on. So it couldn't be helped.

She made a mental note to reward him later on when she had the means to do so.

After a while, Tang Yue stopped.

Her skill level had increased to 5 and it was no longer improving. Most probably, it was because of Lotte's low cultivation level.

Tang Yue nodded and dismissed the poor guy. She decided to give the elf some break and headed outside to the city's famous tea house.

Clover house was a very famous eatery establishment in the elven lands.

The owner was a grandmaster in the culinary arts and excelled in brewing higher grade spirit herbs.

It was rumored that if a dish was prepared with the owner's golden hands, almost 99% of the herbal efficacy was preserved in the dish.

And moreover, any dish served in the tea house contained almost 60% of the herbal essences.

So it was typically difficult to get a reservation in the tea house.

But since Tang Yue was a member of the royal family, she was naturally given more preferential treatment and was immediately escorted to a booth.

The snake princess tugged at her robe and silently sat down in her booth.

She looked around curiously, visibly awed, and amazed at everything surrounding her.

The atmosphere in the tea house was outstanding!

Calm and serene zither music flowed in the background. Rich mystical paintings adorned the walls.

Fragrant medicinal herbs were potted and arranged tastefully in various corners and nooks.

Some of the walls even had a few climbers with pretty purple flowers giving a pleasant and cool feeling.

Tang Yue sighed in amazement. High-class royal establishments were indeed spectacular.

She still had a gem leftover from her blackmailing days and hence decided to splurge a bit before heading into the forests.

She, of course, had other plans as well.

Tang Yue relaxedly hummed to the tune of the zither and glanced over the price list.

"Hai Hai. I need to blackmail more people." She chuckled. All the prices listed were very exorbitant.

After contemplating for a while, she ordered a Bianya herbal tea set, costing 2 gold pieces.

Bianya was a lightning attribute herb and Tang Yue was curious to see how much the brewed herb could boost her attributes.

Also, her current quest was still pending.

<Quest: Increase your lightning resistance by 1 Level>

<Reward: 5 Experience Points>

After ordering, the snake then casually tapped on the wooden table and waited while her tea was being prepared.

Her emerald eyes busily darted here and there observing everyone in the tea house.

She carefully observed all the powerhouses present around her.

Since it was typically difficult to hide one's cultivation base unless you are in the Demi-God realm or higher, one can easily gauge someone else's strength from their aura.

And most elves in the tea house, of course, had terrifying strong auras. Tang Yue swiftly moved her eyes away from these experts.

Apart from elves, there were even a couple of dwarves and orcs sitting in a few booths. They also had relatively strong auras.

Tang Yue sighed and waited.

She had come here in the hopes of running into someone with slightly higher cultivation than Lotte.

"Guess I have to roam around in the market district and startle random people." She nodded silently to herself.

She didn't want to draw too much attention to herself but if she had no other option, she might have to take a few laps around the market in the name of observing the different shops.

Soon her tea set arrived. "Thanks." Tang Yue nodded and smiled at the shy waitress.

A very fragrant aroma permeated her blue nostrils visibly relaxing her body.

"Impressive." Tang Yue lifted the red mud teacup and took a sip of the drink.

Ding. A lightning attribute object has been consumed.

Ding. Lightning resistance has increased.

Ding. A lightning attribute object has been consumed.

Ding. Lightning resistance has increased.

Ding. A lightning attribute object has been consumed.

Ding. Lightning resistance has increased.

A series of crisp notifications echoed in her brain.

Tang Yue was pleasantly surprised and smiled in satisfaction.

"Coming here was indeed a good idea." She chuckled.

As she calmly savored her drink, a group of elves entered the shop, chatting and giggling in high spirits.
