Hatched to Rule - Episode 7

A man confronts a powerful Serpentfolk cultivator, declaring he won't let him leave. The man, possessing a seemingly weak Ironclaw Chicken beast companion, engages the Mid Foundation Realm foe in a fight. Observers believe the chicken is doomed against the superior cultivation, but the battle reveals the beast's surprising might stems from a dominant bloodline, not raw power. As the Serpentfolk unleashes a secret technique, the true origin of the man's formidable bloodline is called into question, leaving the outcome of their clash uncertain.
