The Green Crocodile King was killed, and his soul was shattered by the land god of Yuanshi County and completely destroyed.

If the Green Crocodile King was a true immortal, his soul would have been taken to Zifu Continent. Unfortunately, he was a calamity immortal and had violated the laws of heaven, so his only fate was to be reduced to ashes.

Xuan Lie beat the Green Crocodile King's corpse back to its original form, and it turned out to be a black-scaled crocodile dragon. Calling it a dragon was an exaggeration, as it was actually a crocodile, elegantly known as a "crocodile dragon".

Then Xuan Lie peeled off its black armor and placed the body on the Pingkou shore. The body of the Green Crocodile King was very large, more than ten feet long, and its shape was extremely terrifying, like a crocodile as big as a small mountain. Anyone who saw it would be terrified.

"This monster has been eliminated. It is not appropriate for us to show our identities in the human world for too long. I will go back to the temple first." The land god of Yuanshi County bowed to Xuanlie and said.

Xuan Lie quickly bowed and said, "Okay, in a few days, I will go to the Earth God Temple to pay a visit to you, fellow Taoist."

The land god of Yuanshi County nodded, then waved his hand, turned around and turned into a ray of fairy light and left.

Watching the land god of Yuanshi County leave, Xuan Lie also returned to the Xu River. He then used his magic power to calm the water of the Xu River, destroyed the cave of the Green Crocodile King, and then returned to the former site of the Xu River Water Palace.

At this time, the little demons who lived in the former site of Xujiang Water Palace had dispersed. Xuan Lie knew that they ran away because they were afraid of offending him.

Xuan Lie smiled faintly, then let the matter go. He used his magic power to move sand and stones, and built a new water palace on the site of the old Xujiang Water Palace.

At this time, Xuan Lie thought of the huge rocks buried at the bottom of the Xu River. He immediately controlled the power of the Xu River water and moved all the huge rocks blocking the river to build a new water palace.

In this way, the area where the water was originally flowing fast was freed from the blockage and soon became smooth.

The corpses that were pressed under the huge rocks were also collected by Xuan Lie. After the water palace was initially built, Xuan Lie entered the water palace and sat down cross-legged, preparing to "appear in a dream".

Just when Xuan Lie was building the Water Palace, the people around Pingkou saw that the river water did not overflow the embankment and flood the villages and towns, so they returned after waiting for half a day.

Then they saw the huge crocodile corpse placed on the Pingkou Bank. At first, the people were so scared that their faces turned pale and they knelt down to kowtow.

Later they found that the crocodile was completely motionless and seemed to be dead, so some brave people went forward to check, and finally confirmed that the crocodile was dead.

The people immediately reported the matter to the magistrate of Yuanshi County. After the magistrate came to check it out personally, he reported it to the prefect of Xujiang Prefecture.

When the governor of Xujiang Prefecture heard that a giant crocodile had died on the bank of Xujiang Pingkou, he immediately drove over to check it out.

At this time, whether it was the prefect, the county magistrate, or the common people, they did not know that the crocodile dragon was the Green Crocodile King. They just thought it was a monster killed by the Green Crocodile King and then washed ashore by the waves.

On that day, the prefect, along with the county magistrate and the common people, set up an incense table to worship the "Crocodile King". The prefect also stayed overnight in Yuanshi County until Xuanlie appeared in his dream.

The prefect opened his eyes in his dream and saw the roaring Xu River before him. A divine light illuminated the entire river. A divine being dressed in a purple Doushu robe stood on the river and spoke to the prefect, "I am the water god of the Xu River, appointed by the Jade Emperor. I took office yesterday. The corpse of the crocodile on the bank is the evil 'Green Crocodile King', who has been plaguing the Xu River for over 300 years. I and the land god of Yuanshi County have slain it, and its body is being displayed on the river bank as a warning to evil cultivators. The remains of the boys and girls previously devoured by the Green Crocodile King will float to the riverbank at noon tomorrow. You may send your people to salvage them. From now on, you must not sacrifice boys and girls. This violates the laws of heaven and will surely damage your virtue. Be careful, be careful!"

After saying this, Xuan Lie withdrew the spell, ending the divine appearance in the dream.

The prefect suddenly woke up and found that it was already bright outside the window. He immediately got up, dressed, and after a quick wash, he went straight to Pingjiangkou with his entourage.

When the prefect arrived at Pingjiangkou, there were only a few common people guarding the place. When they saw the prefect coming, they immediately came forward to salute.

The prefect didn't say much, he just started to wait quietly. Although Xuan Lie appeared in his dream, he didn't dare to believe it completely. If he rashly suggested that the Green Crocodile King was killed, wouldn't it be embarrassing if the Green Crocodile King suddenly appeared when everyone was celebrating?

So the prefect was waiting, waiting until noon, to see if the bodies of the boys and girls really would float to the surface.

Time passed slowly and soon it was noon. More and more people gathered at Pingjiangkou. Even the magistrate of Yuanshi County hurried over after hearing the news that the prefect had arrived.

At this moment, the crowd in front suddenly made a noise, and then a sudden wave surged ashore, followed by a mountain of bones washed ashore by the waves.

"Ah!" Some people were immediately frightened and began to scream and flee.

The governor quickly stepped forward and looked at the piles of corpses. Although he was also horrified, he was more delighted. "It's true, hahahaha, it's true!!!"

The governor suddenly burst into tears of joy and shouted loudly: "The Green Crocodile King is dead, the Green Crocodile King is dead!"

Hearing the prefect's loud shout, the surrounding people and the county magistrate beside the prefect were stunned. Then they turned pale with fear and cast their eyes towards the Xu River.

However, the Xu River was calm. It was unknown how long it had passed before the prefect told everyone about Xuan Lie's divine appearance in his dream last night.

When everyone heard the news, they were all surprised and ran to tell each other. The prefect immediately ordered people to count the corpses. The final number was "120 corpses", all of which were children's corpses, including 60 boys and 60 girls.
