Chapter 848

"To surpass him is harder than climbing to the heavens!"

The red-haired man sighed.

Fist Demon Lu En is indeed an extraordinary prodigy!

To surpass such a prodigy…

Even if Lufei were Joy Boy, it would be extremely difficult.

After all.

A world-class monster who became one of the sea's top powerhouses at just five years old.

How rare is that?

Unprecedented since ancient times!

Never seen before in history!

Fist Demon Lu En has set countless earth-shattering records!

For the next thousand years…

No one will likely break the records he established.

Even Lufei would almost certainly fail to do so.

"Big brother…"

"Is he really that terrifying?"

Lufei's eyes glazed over; hearing the red-haired man's words left him mentally dazed.

His gaze shifted.

He looked ahead.

Clearly visible.

That massive sea king lay dead, floating on the sea surface, its blood staining the surrounding hundreds of meters of ocean.

The pungent stench of blood lingered long in this area.

"But it's not entirely without hope."

Seeing Lufei's gloomy expression, the red-haired man changed tone and spoke with deep meaning.

"Shanks, do you have a way?"

Lufei's eyes lit up and he pressed urgently.

"There is still a way."

It depends on…

Whether you're willing to strive for it!

The red-haired man smiled.

"I am!"

Lufei nodded quickly.

Just as the red-haired man was about to speak.

Lu En, not far away, stepped on Moon Step and arrived beside them.

"The matter is resolved."

"Let's go. We should return to Windmill Village."

Lu En said to Lufei, "The villagers are searching tirelessly for you. Since you've now escaped from danger, it's time to go back and let them know you're safe."

"So the villagers won't keep causing chaos searching for you."

"The old village chief and others are all worried about your safety. Right now, the priority is returning to Windmill Village to report your safety, not wasting time here."

With that said.

The red-haired man's lips twitched.

He glared at Lu En with ill will, yet had no reply.

"I understand."

Lufei's mood instantly sank.

He realized.

Because of his recklessness this time, he had caused massive turmoil throughout Windmill Village, and made countless villagers worry about his safety.

He felt deep guilt.

"Next time, think before you act."

"If you're reckless again…"

"You won't always be this lucky."

Lu En gently patted Lufei's small head, speaking with serious earnestness.

He said this.

But given Lufei's luck…

He'll probably never truly face a hopeless situation again.

After all.

Lufei is, after all, a child of fate!

Given Lufei's innate personality, recklessness and impulsiveness have become his trademarks.

Wanting him to change?

Hard!

Extremely hard!

Lu En didn't expect it either.

This experience would make Little Lufei remember it for the rest of his life.

He only hoped.

That Little Lufei wouldn't be so mindless in the future!

At the very least…

That he'd learn to think for himself, just a little.

Just that, Lu En was already satisfied.

"Mm."

Little Lufei, scolded by Lu En, lowered his head slightly.

He felt deeply ashamed.

For his recklessness had stirred the entire village into action.

It made him uneasy.

And deeply guilty.

"Let's go."

Lu En cast one final glance at Red Hair.

Next,

he stepped on Moon Step and returned to the corpse of the Near-Sea King.

With one hand, he gripped the corpse of the Near-Sea King and dragged the massive sea king's body toward the Windmill Village harbor.

The massive, mountain-like corpse of the Near-Sea King felt like a bundle of cotton in Lu En's hands, causing him almost no burden at all.

Preliminary conservative estimate.

Such a massive sea king's body likely weighed no less than dozens of tons.

Yet in Lu En's hands,

he still dragged the sea king's body back to Windmill Village with effortless ease.

Lu En, stepping on Moon Step, carried the Near-Sea King's corpse on one shoulder.

Finally…

he glanced once at Red Hair and Little Lufei's positions, then left without further delay, racing at full speed toward the Windmill Village harbor.

He needed to return quickly and let Little Lufei know he was safe.

To prevent the villagers of Windmill Village from launching a full-scale search.

If any villagers unfortunately died because of this, it would be a terrible loss.

Gradually…
