Before him stood an extremely large demonic beast, its true form a black bear, its eyes fixed intently on Lu Chen.

This is a demon king.

What brings you here?

Lu Chen, however, looked relaxed and casually glanced at the bear. He had no interest in killing such a monster.

Of course, this applies if the other party doesn't actively cause trouble.

However, it was clear that this demon king was unaware of the difference in strength between himself and his opponent. He immediately sneered and asked, "Have you captured the little crocodile demon?"

No, why?

Lu Chen asked a question in return.

This little crocodile demon is actually an extremely powerful life form that lives in the underground dragon's lair.

The main target of Black Dragon City's city lord is this kind of thing; finding rare and precious materials is an extra task.

Therefore, Lu Chen was not surprised.

The aura he sensed earlier, different from the monsters outside, came from this little crocodile, but Lu Chen has yet to see a live little crocodile.

"No? Hmph! What is your true form?"

Even after transforming into human form, the enormous black bear was extremely arrogant. It was curious that the Demon King couldn't see through the true form of the creature in front of it.

Of course, according to the common sense of the demon race, the only creature that can transform into a complete human form is either a spirit beast that has survived a minor heavenly tribulation, but it is definitely not a divine beast.

Only after a divine beast has survived a great tribulation can it transform into a complete human form and possess the aura of a divine beast.

But the creature in front of us is clearly not a divine beast.

"you guess?"

Lu Chen suddenly laughed.

This black bear seems to look down on me, as if it thinks I'm easy to bully? I've been practicing the Starry Sky Body Refining Technique for a month now, so I'll test my progress.

"How about this, you become my pet, and I'll tell you? How about it?"

Lu Chen smiled, looking relaxed.
