Hu Le casually planted a spirit fruit tree, which saved tens of thousands of humans on the mountain. Afterwards, he did not take credit and left quietly.
After flying thousands of miles further, they suddenly saw a large number of humans struggling and rising and falling in a vast ocean ahead.
It turns out that these people had climbed to the nearest small hill to escape the flood, but they underestimated the ferocity of the flood.
The raging floodwaters quickly submerged the small hill where they were hiding, and they were naturally swept away by the flood.
Upon seeing this, Hu Le exhaled a breath of immortal energy, which transformed into more than a dozen large ships that floated on the water.
Then, he raised his hand and pointed, and countless waves rose in the water, sweeping up the group of humans and sending them onto the ship.
After being rescued, everyone wept with joy and repeatedly kowtowed to Hu Le in the sky in gratitude.
Driven by the flood, the large ship drifted rapidly downstream.
Hu Le silently calculated and understood the future of these people.
They simply need to drift downstream by boat, and it won't be long before they can safely reach land and survive.
Therefore, he no longer needed to worry about what happened next...
Having calculated the future of these people, Hu Le once again urged the auspicious cloud to slowly fly towards the direction of Renwang Mountain.
Along the way, he recuperated while rescuing people from the flood, pulling them out of danger...
On this day, he flew over a large mountain.
The mountains were surrounded by floods, and the mountains were inhabited by creatures that had fled the floods, among which humans were the most numerous.
They escaped the flood, felt they had escaped to safety, and struggled to survive, clinging to a hope for the future.
Life is full of hardships. Although they escaped the flood, they were unaware that another danger was about to strike.
The floods swept across the land, causing devastating disasters to countless lives.
But for some water monsters, this was a godsend, giving them the opportunity to stir up trouble...
A group of humans were picking wild fruits in a forest by the water to take back to feed their families.
Suddenly, a giant wave rose from the previously calm water, and a group of water demons stood on the crest of the wave. They all looked fierce and menacing, staring greedily at the humans on the shore.
As the giant waves crashed against the shore, the group of water demons took the opportunity to come ashore.
The humans who were picking wild fruits nearby screamed in terror when they saw the water demon attacking. They scattered and fled into the depths of the forest.
However, how could ordinary humans possibly outrun the water demons?
Before long, all the humans were captured by the water demon.
Soon, human sorcerer warriors noticed the commotion and rushed over, but they were too late. The water demons had already swept the humans into the water and disappeared.
Some of the sorcerer warriors were so enraged that they jumped into the water to give chase.
In an instant, the two sides engaged in a fierce battle underwater, causing the water to boil violently and creating turbid waves.
In a short while, the waves subsided, and those sorcerers could never return.
On land, they might be able to fight those water demons for a few rounds, but once in the water, most of their strength is gone, so how could they possibly be a match for the water demons...
Hu Leli, standing in the clouds, saw this scene and immediately dispersed the auspicious clouds, came to the water's surface, gently stroked the water with his bamboo staff, parted the surface, and walked into the water.
He quickly caught up with the group of water demons and followed them for a short distance until they reached a large river. Then, after the group of water demons entered the depths of the river's eye, he followed them in.
A crystal palace stands inside the water eye.
The water demons escorted the humans into the palace and into the main hall.
Inside the hall, the decorations were incredibly luxurious, with numerous bright jewels and gemstones inlaid on the beams and pillars, emitting a hazy glow that made the entire hall shine brilliantly.
To the north of the main hall, on the high steps, stood a spacious and tall jade throne, upon which lay a red-haired, red-bearded demon god.
Near the pillars in the hall, a row of musicians sat playing the sheng and se, producing melodious music.
In the center of the hall, a group of beautiful seashell maidens, dressed in gorgeous and light dresses, swayed their slender waists and danced gracefully to the celestial music.
On either side were rows of low tables, where a group of fierce-looking demons sat on cushions, enjoying the enchanting dance of the sea goddesses while engaging in lively conversation and drinking.
The hall was filled with a terrifying aura and swirling demonic energy.
The water demons entered the hall and came to the jade throne. One of the water demons stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, we have returned."
"Oh? Did you manage to catch any prey?" the red-haired demon god asked.
In his mind, humans were nothing more than delicious blood food, something to be eaten and drunk, no different from ordinary food. As for feelings of pity or compassion... sorry, he really didn't have any of those...
"Your Majesty, we have captured quite a few humans and were just about to ask you how to deal with them?" the water demon asked tentatively.
The red-haired demon king pondered for a moment, then called out loudly to the hall, "Fellow Daoists, we've gone outside and captured some fresh humans to prepare for your enjoyment. Would you prefer them steamed or eaten raw?"
Steamed!
"Eat it raw!"
"..."
A group of demons began to argue, each offering their own interpretation.
One of the white-haired old demons shouted, "They're just some blood food, what's there to argue about? In my opinion, we should just gouge out their hearts and livers to have with our drinks!"
"Clap clap clap..."
As soon as the old demon finished speaking, someone outside the hall clapped. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Hu Le clapping as he walked into the hall.
"That beast is right. Steaming, blanching, or braising are all useless compared to eating raw heart and liver."
Especially the freshly dug-out heart, stained with blood, still beating lively; one bite, and the taste…”
As Hu Le spoke, he slowly walked up to the group of demons.
When the red-haired demon king on the throne saw Hu Le arrive, he rubbed his eyes in disbelief. When he realized that he was not dreaming, he turned pale with fright, trembled all over, and almost fell off the throne.
Meanwhile, some of the demons in the hall did not notice anything unusual about him. Several of them even loudly echoed Hu Le, and their gazes towards Hu Le became friendly, as if they had seen a kindred spirit...
However, some astute individuals noticed something amiss with the red-haired demon king and, filled with confusion, one demon lord stood up and asked, "Fellow Daoist Water Fox, what's wrong with you?"
The red-haired demon king, also known as the water fox, finally came to his senses. He looked at Hu Le with eyes full of terror and stammered, "Human...human...human emperor...Your...Your Majesty!"
