Chapter 1022: The Crocodile At the Bottom
The Giant-Tailed Crocodile was extremely conflicted. Back then, it was only a small crocodile and had not yet cultivated into a Level 5 magical beast. It was still an insignificant one among the aquatic race.
However, when the Golden Dragon was suffering from the ten-thousand-year calamity, it stabbed the Golden Dragon in the back, causing the Golden Dragon to not be able to withstand the ten-thousand-year calamity. Of course, it was also because the Golden Dragon himself was injured back then. He simply did not guard against this little crocodile.
After the Golden Dragon was in trouble, his colorful crystals were given to the White Dragon, and the red crystals in his body were taken by him.
This was also the reason why the Giant-Tailed Crocodile did not dare to show its face outside and buried its head in training in the aquatic race.
After waiting for so many years and finally getting everyone to accept the fact that it was a Level 5 magical beast, if the Golden Dragon really appeared and revealed what had happened back then, the three elders would definitely not spare it.
That was because dragons were the only holy beast that connected the World of Magical Beasts and the Immortal World.
For so many years, there had been no immortal transformation species in the World of Magical Beasts because no dragons had appeared.
Back then, the White Dragon had fought with the Ghost Pond Qilin due to a conflict of wills and was punished by the Immortal World to be trapped in this World of Magical Beasts. Therefore, the World of Magical Beasts could be said to have been forgotten by the Six Realms.
Now that it heard Fez say this, the Giant-Tailed Crocodile was naturally afraid.
Fez saw that the Giant-Tailed Crocodile was wavering, so she continued to say sternly,”You can go and investigate tomorrow. After all, I’m injured and can’t leave, but you can. You can see if that person has the Black Axe or not.”
“Alright, I’ll make a decision after I’ve seen everything tomorrow.”
Fez looked at the Giant-Tailed Crocodile’s back as it left and laughed mockingly. Even if she was demoted to a Level 2 magical beast, she had to think of a way to make them restless.
The Giant-Tailed Crocodile had been timid all its life. The only thing it did wrong was related to the Golden Dragon. Now, as long as she said that that person was the reincarnation of the Golden Dragon, the Giant-Tailed Crocodile would definitely believe her. The most important thing was that that person really had the Black Axe.
As for whether the person was the Golden Dragon, she did not believe it. Humans were just similar. She knew much more about the human world than the Giant-Tailed Crocodile. She did not believe it. It had been 10,000 years… The Giant-Tailed Crocodile could still remember what the Golden Dragon looked like?
It had snowed heavily overnight. Not only that, thunder even struck in broad daylight. This was really strange. It was the first time Yan Kuan and the others had encountered thunder on such a snowy day.
The two children were forced to bring them to the hot spring cave they had stayed in previously. The cave there was a little bigger and warmer. Although the children said that it was not cold… However, as parents, they would definitely not allow the children to do as they wished.
“The weather here is really strange.”
“Yeah, thunder even on a snowy day. I’m afraid something is going to happen.”
“You two, we don’t need to bring these. When the snow stops, we’ll come back and temporarily go to the hot spring cave. Didn’t you say that you haven’t had a hot bath for a long time? Mommy will take you to have a good bath.”
“Okay, then we won’t bring them. Let’s go.”
Yan Kuan wanted to hug one and have the other sit on his shoulder, just like before. In the end, the two little things had to leave by themselves. They even boasted that they could find a tiger to be their mount as long as they were willing.
Shen Xiaoxiao and Yan Kuan smiled. These children suddenly became filial and grew up in an instant. They were really not used to it.
“This snow mastiff is really big. Didn’t they say that it was only a little over a month old? It’s even bigger than General and Marshal.”
“A snow mastiff is like this. Moreover, this snow mastiff is extremely human-like. I was lucky enough to see a wild snow mastiff in the Tibetan areas of China. It was extremely big and stood at the peak of the snow mountain. It was incomparably majestic. A wolf pack of more than a dozen wolves surrounded it and killed it. Moreover, the snow mastiff recognizes its master. You can tell from its attitude toward us. I’m afraid it has already recognized Little Treasure as its master. What a pity that our Da Bao thought she was the first person the snow mastiff saw.”
Yan Kuan, who was walking at the back, looked at the little guy jumping up and down in front of him and smiled helplessly. Sometimes, Da Bao was really naïve and cute, but she was also very smart. However, when it came to Little Treasure’s small head, it was really not enough.
“Yeah, if there’s a chance, give Da Bao a snow mastiff too. It’ll be a bit more fair.”
“Mm, looks like we’ll be staying in this World of Magical Beasts for a while. Who knows, we might even have this opportunity. Let’s walk faster. It’s snowing heavily.”
The four of them and a dog walked through the forest. At this moment, an abnormality appeared in front of them.
“Daddy, Mommy, it’s the Giant-Tailed Crocodile. It’s a Level 5 magical beast.”
When Yan Kuan and Shen Xiaoxiao heard this, they immediately raised their vigilance. They had already learned a little about the World of Magical Beasts from the two children. They knew that the magical beasts would not show mercy on this day, and would not be lenient with you. If they met one, there would definitely be a fight.
Moreover, this was a Level 5 magical beast. This was the first time they had met one. Yan Kuan directly took out his Black Axe. In this third layer of the World of Magical Beasts, they definitely did not dare to be careless.
“Protect the children.”
The two of them had a clear division of labor. Yan Kuan held the Black Axe and stood directly in front of the Level 5 magical beast. He had heard that a Level 5 magical beast could use lightning through space. He really wanted to see it for himself.
That was why he asked Shen Xiaoxiao to protect the children and retreat.
Shen Xiaoxiao looked worriedly at Yan Kuan standing in front of the Level 5 magical beast.
The Giant-Tailed Crocodile was also very strange. It stood in the same spot and watched for a long time. Then, it suddenly struck out with an electric shock. Yan Kuan held the Black Axe and struck at the incoming electric shock with all his might.
Good heavens! The two rays of light collided in the air with a loud bang.
Yan Kuan was unscathed, while the Giant-Tailed Crocodile took a step back.
It looked at Yan Kuan for a while. Then, just when they thought it would take another step forward, it turned around and left. This made Da Bao and Little Treasure, as well as Yan Kuan and Shen Xiaoxiao, dumbfounded.
This, this, this was a Level 5 magical beast? Wasn’t it running too fast?
Moreover, it was Little Treasure and the others’ specialty to run away if they couldn’t win. This Level 5 magical beast was also like this?
“Wow, Daddy is so powerful. He actually defeated a Level 5 magical beast and made it run away.”
“Yeah, Daddy, you’re too powerful.”
The two children looked at Yan Kuan with starry eyes. Yan Kuan himself looked at the Black Axe in his hand thoughtfully. From the looks of it, the crocodile seemed to have come for the Black Axe in his hand? But it didn’t have the intention to snatch it. What was going on? Could it be that it was trying to prove its power?
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Yan Kuan, who was in a daze, and asked worriedly, “Are you alright?”
“I’m fine. Let’s go. The crocodile shouldn’t be coming back for the time being. There’s thunder again.”
“Alright, let’s go quickly.”
After they returned to the cave, the two children quickly stripped themselves naked and jumped into the pool. This hot spring pool was quite big. It was two meters wide in diameter and about two meters deep. Seeing the two children jump so quickly, Shen Xiaoxiao did not have time to worry that they would not be able to swim. She watched them happily swim inside.
It seemed that when they were no longer there, the children had really learned a lot.
