Chapter 69: The Dragon King Han Family Son-in-law
"This human-faced crocodile is a vicious villain from the deep sea. He killed many lives in my sea area. I personally took action to capture it." The island owner said: "If Taoist Xiao Li is really a great disciple, he must have profound cultivation. As long as we don't take it lightly, defeating this beast should be a piece of cake."
Li Chu did not comment.
He has always been modest, cautious and polite.
I don’t have the habit of saying harsh words first.
Soon, the sound of clanking chains was heard outside the hall.
Two guards walked in, leading an extremely tall monster with an iron chain.
No wonder it is called the human-faced crocodile. Its face does have distinct human features, except that its teeth are protruding and covered with green scales.
The monster's body is human-like, but it is more than two meters tall. If the hall were not spacious enough, it would not be able to accommodate it.
The body was covered with dark green scales with strange patterns on them. The front of the four limbs were still claws, and behind it was a very thick tail.
He was full of murderous aura and his face showed that he was not to be messed with.
As soon as he saw it, Wang Longqi touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
This thing...what and what could have produced it?
The human-faced crocodile had eighteen dragon-patterned bone-piercing nails nailed all over its body. If it activated its demonic power even a little, it would be in excruciating pain, so it could only let the two guards lead it away.
As soon as it saw the island owner, a sneer appeared on its terrifying face.
"Human-faced crocodile, I'll give you a chance now." The island owner didn't care and said, "I want you to compete with this young Taoist priest. If you win, I can let you go."
"Hahahaha." A hoarse and unpleasant laugh came from the human-faced crocodile's throat, "Can I tear him into pieces?"
"No." The island owner shook his head.
"Hehe, boring."
There was a clanging sound as the guards pulled out the bone-piercing nails one by one. Every time a nail was pulled out, a bloody hole the size of an adult's wrist appeared on his body.
But it seemed to enjoy it and let out a groan every time it pulled out a nail.
“Eh——”
Wang Longqi couldn't bear to watch this scene anymore, so he turned his attention elsewhere...
During the whole process, Li Chu had been observing the human-faced crocodile and also opened his mind eyes to observe.
He had not come into contact with many monsters, so he could not judge a monster's strength by looking at its aura.
We can only roughly guess that if it had not deliberately restrained its demonic aura, it should be much weaker than the flying lion.
In this case, it seems that there is no need to be so cautious.
But in the eyes of others, the resentment attached to it is overwhelming!
I really don’t know how much sin I have committed.
It seems that I don't need to hold back. Killing such a monster is a merit.
The butler also came over carefully and gave a quiet reminder.
"Master Xiao Li, you'd better make a quick decision. This human-faced crocodile has committed countless crimes. He relied on a fragment of ancient magical power he got in his early years, and learned a secret of anger. His anger will rise during the battle, and the stronger his anger is, the stronger he is. If he really accumulates the rage to the extreme, I'm afraid that even my island master can't stop him."
He was extremely afraid of the human-faced crocodile, and had been refusing to support the island owner in releasing it, fearing that it might cause a disaster, for this reason.
"Well, thank you for the reminder." Li Chu nodded slightly.
The secret of anger?
It's quite interesting when he hits people and gets angry.
However, he has special tricks to deal with opponents who become stronger as the fight goes on.
As the eighteen bone-piercing nails were completely removed from the body, the murderous aura of the human-faced crocodile reached its peak, even though blood was oozing out of its body and had formed a pool on the ground.
But it didn't care at all. It even looked very happy. It raised its head and laughed, "Ha ha ha ha ha, here comes the knife!"
Without it shouting, two guards came up with great difficulty carrying a huge red-gold scimitar.
“Get out of the way!”
The human-faced crocodile grabbed the hilt of the knife and swung it twice with great force, scaring all the guards around him so much that they dodged in panic.
"Hahahahaha, hahahahaha!" The human-faced crocodile laughed wildly. After stopping, he licked the blade with his tongue and said in a fierce voice, "This precious sword that has traversed the world has not been stained with blood for a long time. How can this be allowed?"
Wang Longqi whispered, "There is definitely no poison on this knife."
After it finished its lines, Li Chu walked out to the palace, stood opposite it, and looked at it calmly.
"Only you? That's not enough!" The human-faced crocodile said grimly, "Everyone must die!"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the maids around them turned pale and the guards were as if they were facing a great enemy.
The evil power is so awe-inspiring!
"Human-faced crocodile!" The island owner shouted, "Just compete obediently. If you dare to act violently again, I will kill you without mercy!"
"Hehe, do you think I'm still afraid of you? Do you know how much anger I have accumulated during these days in prison?"
After yelling at the island owner, the human-faced crocodile raised its scimitar, looked at Li Chu with its scarlet eyes, and said, "Come on! You'll be the first one!"
It crushed the ground with one foot and flew out like an arrow!
There was a flash of blood, and its already huge body suddenly increased in size!
Li Chu was already getting impatient.
Seeing that the enemy had finally taken action, he also drew his sword.
Lift up and drop down.
Chi——
A white light flashed, and the human-faced crocodile, which was still three meters away, suddenly stopped.
Then... split into two parts.
Fell to the ground with a plop.
Finish.
…
The fox girl smiled slightly and said, “My master can even split up thunderclouds.”
In front of him.
What do you have to be so arrogant about?
Wang Longqi's eyes clenched and he said speechlessly: "With such strength, don't waste your words..."
Looking at the horrified looks of the maids and guards on the surrounding island, he couldn't help but curl his lips.
It's just a monster that was killed in seconds, what's the big deal?
In fact, not only the servants, but even the island owner himself had his eyelids twitching when he saw this scene.
shock.
Others may not know the strength of this human-faced crocodile, but he knows it best. It took him a lot of effort to deal with it, and he was a little afraid when he heard it say that it had accumulated a lot of anger.
How come...
Died so hastily?
If it were me, maybe... no, it would definitely not be possible for me to kill with one strike so casually.
How strong is this little Taoist priest?
Thinking of how arrogant he was in front of him just now, the island owner couldn't help but blush. But soon, he thought of a more terrifying thing.
If this little Taoist priest's strength is so terrifying...
How powerful must his master be?
I dare not think too much.
Thinking that he almost offended such a big shot, beads of cold sweat flowed down his forehead.
"I won." Li Chu turned around, not arrogant or impatient, and said to the island owner in a calm tone: "Can we have a good talk now?"
"Haha." The island owner laughed heartily: "Of course, everything can be discussed, it can be discussed."
He turned around and waved his sleeves: "These dishes are cold, change them to hot ones. Where are the musicians? Keep playing! Keep dancing!"
The two halves of the human-faced crocodile's body were dragged away, and the blood was quickly cleaned up. The graceful maids flitted around the table like butterflies, quickly replacing the table with new exquisite dishes.
The sound of an orchestra came from behind the gauze curtain of the hall; the sound was not loud, but melodious and pleasant.
It was as if nothing that just happened had ever happened.
The feast begins again.
Finally, two maids sat beside him to serve him. Wang Longqi got what he wanted, and was surrounded by beauties on both sides. He couldn't stop smiling for a while.
After the meal, the two maids were tired and had to persuade them softly: "Sir, please stop touching and eat something."
The maid who wanted to sit next to Li Chu was politely refused by him.
After eating a simple meal, he spoke again: "Master Island Master, regarding the matter of removing the curse for the fishermen in Wang Fishing Village..."
"There is no problem, as long as they no longer come to this sea area to fish." The island owner seemed to have become a different person and was very easy to talk to.
He raised his left palm, felt a scale on the palm, then gritted his teeth and pulled the scale off.
"Master Xiao Li, take this dragon scale and soak it in water. Let those fishermen who have turned into water monkeys drink it, and the curse will be lifted."
The butler handed over the scales.
Li Chu nodded: "Thank you."
"Actually..." The island owner said again, "I just saw Taoist Xiao Li's cultivation level. I have another thing I want to ask Taoist Xiao Li."
Li Chu said: "It's okay to talk."
"To talk about this request, I have to start with my background." The island owner said seriously.
"Before I became the Dragon King of this place, I actually had another identity, that is... the son-in-law of the Han family!"
Thanks to "lava_fish" for the 500-yuan reward.
