Chapter 080 – Turtle Drake Protecting Its Master (2/2)
His body was blown away with a blast, he hovered in the air for a long time before he plunged into the river of Fowl Crying Lake.
Once he came into contact with the water he immediately plummeted to the riverbed.
Like a falling rock, all the nearby fish, prawns and insects were all frightened off at once.
The river water was muddy and the currents were flowing rapidly, Li Muyang's body was mixed in with silt.
And then he was washed by the river current and completely covered by water plants, which tightly wrapped around him not allowing him to be flushed away again, though his body surfaced once again.
Unable to see light in the water, it's also difficult to be aware of the time.
The body, which still remains fresh, was bundled with water plants, but very soon it will began to smell bad and turn into rotten meat. This sort of meat, are what fish and prawns like to eat the most.
After they crowded around and devoured till they're satisfied, only several white bones would remain down there.
The same ending as the countless people who had drowned.
For many people, this signifies the end of life.
The moment Li Muyang fell into water, his sudden large movement scared away all the fish and prawns nearby.
After some time, those fish and prawns once again gathered together, wanting to take a glimpse at what startled them.
They wanted to know the truth but did not dare to be the first to come close.
Fear is the nature of each species.
Moreover, this 'something' gave off a dangerous odour that makes people hoped to become stronger.
Eventually, a small herring waiting impatiently could not resist the urge any longer; he was the first to flex his body and tail back and forth, pus.h.i.+ng through the water towards Li Muyang.
He bit Li Muyang's arm, kissed Li Muyang's face, yet Li Muyang still did not made any movements at all.
“Mum, it's a monster.” The small herring blew bubbles as he shouted to his mother.
“Kid run, monsters like to eat fish——-” Mama fish hurriedly swayed her tail, desperately making eye contact with her child to warn him to stay out of danger. As you age, the sense of smell is also more keen and sharp. She sensed that this 'monster' is dangerous, even if there isn't any movement, they still can't provoke it without thinking.
“Look it's not scary at all. Mum, can I have a bite? It looks delicious.”
“Silly boy, it doesn't taste good now, let it rot for a while——–”
“Mum, then lets bring the monster home——–”
——–
He opened his mouth to tear through the water plants, trying to save Li Muyang from the weeds.
But there were too many plants that were also too tough. Relying solely on one's strength it is hard to accomplish.
While the small herring was having difficulty, another small herring swam over.
Then, more and more fishes and prawns gathered, they used their mouth to nip, their claws to tear, getting rid of all the water plants wrapped around Li Muyang, trying their best to help him escape.
Rumble——
The currents at the river bottom suddenly began to sweep violently.
Whenever there was this sound of activity, it indicated a giant of the water have came to hunt.
Fish and prawns escaped in panic, in the blink of an eye everyone vanished.
Rumble—-
With a muscular flat head, protruding mouth and stubby limbs, a gigantic turtle dragon of several hundred metres long slowly swam over.
It was not impatient at all, instead approached gently and warily.
Just as it swam over to Li Muyang and were no more than ten meters away, it glanced cautiously left and right, and then circled around him four more times.
The moment it sensed no danger, it leisurely swam over to Li Muyang.
Its sharp snout slowly moved close to Li Muyang's face, before it greedily took a whiff of him.
Its skin were armoured with embedded bony plates making it look ugly and savage. As long as it opens its mouth, it seemed it could swallow Li Muyang, together with all the water plants, in one gulp.
Before, this kind of thing was what he enjoyed the most.
However, this time he did not do so, and also did not dare to do so.
He dived down under Li Muyang's body and used his broad strong back to slowly bring Li Muyang to the surface of the water.
At first glance, the thousand-year-old turtle dragon of several hundred meters long became Li Muyang's horse.
It seems that the turtle dragon king of this water district is not here to feast on Li Muyang, but to save Li Muyang. All those fishes that hid and escape into the distance once again crowded around, they joyfully followed behind the alligator. They seemed like guards escorting the Emperor.
“Puu——” Only after Cui Zhaoren spurted out a mouthful of blood, did he feel a lot better.
This blow made him extremely shocked, even until now he still can't calm himself.
This guy whom he couldn't sense anything turned out to be a hidden expert?
Fortunately his attack just now wasn't too careless, if he struck him treating him as an ordinary person, then most likely he would be the person who's dead right now———
This feeling of almost suffering a defeat made Cui Zhaoren unable to suppress his fury, he turned around, swept his eyes over the river and commanded in a cold voice: “Deploy staff to search the river, bring him here, dead or alive.”
“Yes.” The group of men of the Monitor Division replied loudly.
Just then, someone suddenly pointed and shouted at the same time: “Hurry look, what the h.e.l.l is that?”
Everybody was awakened by this cry, and then in front of them was a shocking sight.
The river water tumbling down while wading birds rocket into the sky, as a giant alligator of hundreds meters long held his head high, circling above the river.
On top of its head was Li Muyang, sitting upright like a king.
