Chapter 232: Bloodline Jade (Second update, requesting subscriptions)

It is a pity that the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile was facing a Monster Tamer; Li Zhangsheng did not have the intention of letting the Three-Headed Snake fight alone, and immediately commanded his remaining Demon Pets to join the battle.

As for Yuan Yongyan and the other three, they could at most serve as support; after all, given the strength of their Demon Pets, if they got too close, they would likely be killed instantly by the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile.

After the Three-Headed Snake drew the fire, Aixi moved its feet rapidly, pouncing toward the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile with lightning speed.

During this process, Aixi opened its mouth wide, revealing snow-white fangs like swords, and bit toward the waist of the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile.

The Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile had no time to react before it felt a pain in its waist; Aixi's fangs had pierced deeply into it, and when it pulled them out, a spray of fresh blood gushed forth, instantly staining the ground red.

The next moment, the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile stopped paying attention to the Three-Headed Snake and directly opened its crocodile mouth, biting toward Aixi.

Wind Stealth!

Before the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile could complete its movement, Aixi narrowed its eyes, a flash of cyan light appeared on its body, and it seemed to turn into a Residual Shadow, easily dodging the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile's pounce and appearing instead at its side-rear.

Steel Tail!

During this process, Aixi quickly completed a turn, its tail shimmering with a metallic luster, and like a vertical steel whip, it lashed fiercely against the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile's body.

Slap~

Accompanied by a muffled sound, the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile could not help but let out a miserable shriek, and on its head, an additional wound appeared, deep enough to see the bone.

Roar~

The Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile let out an angry roar, raised its tail—which was broken in half—and tried to lash it toward Aixi.

Just at this moment, the Fire Flamingo in the sky shook its entire body, flames suddenly emerged on its surface, and like a meteor crashing into the earth, it rapidly launched a charge toward the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile.

Propelled by the flames, the Fire Flamingo's speed increased sharply, hitting the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile in the blink of an eye.

Boom~

The flames erupted wildly, almost completely covering the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile, and a faint scent of roasted meat wafted through the air.

Because of the Fire Flamingo, the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile's offensive was forcibly interrupted.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the remaining two heads of the Three-Headed Snake opened their mouths and sprayed out energy beams of two different colors.

At the same time, Aixi also opened its large mouth, and countless golden light spots gathered crazily, almost completely submerging its mouth, until it could barely maintain it, at which point it sprayed out a Golden Light Beam as thick as a water bucket.

The light beams sprayed by the two Demon Pets hit the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile simultaneously.

Boom~

The energy of four different attributes merged, erupting into another intense explosion, from which came the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile's increasingly painful shrieks.

By the time the explosion vanished, the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile was already lying on the ground, a huge gap in its waist where one could even faintly see its internal organs.

At this moment, the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile had already fallen into a near-death state and could no longer launch an attack.

The description seems long, but from the moment the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile fell into the Bamboo Thorn Trap until now, only a short two or three minutes had passed.

In this amount of time, the Emperor Crocodile tribe had only just crawled to the top of the small hill, and it would take at least another two minutes to crawl down from the mountain.

Their crawling speed was too slow; their massive size granted them solid bodies and powerful strength, but it also greatly affected their speed. It was fortunate that they were Water Attribute Spirit Beasts and naturally skilled at Camouflage, otherwise, it would have been truly difficult to hunt for food on land.

"Now is a good opportunity for us to take the initiative; target the Emperor Crocodiles on the mountain to the left!"

Li Zhangsheng did not pedantically execute the subsequent plan, but instead made changes based on the shifting situation; rather than dealing with the entire Emperor Crocodile tribe at once, it was better to take them out one by one now to minimize losses.

"Good!" After defeating the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile, the members of Li Zhangsheng's squad were all in high spirits, their inner anxiety completely vanished, replaced by full confidence.

Li Zhangsheng had a steady personality and powerful strength; following such a captain, their safety was undoubtedly greatly guaranteed.

In half a minute, Li Zhangsheng's squad began to engage in close-quarters combat with the six Emperor Crocodiles on the left mountain.

These six Emperor Crocodiles consisted of three adult Emperor Crocodiles and three juvenile Emperor Crocodiles.

The adult Emperor Crocodiles naturally had all reached the Upper Realm, and their threat was naturally great, but unfortunately, their opponent was Li Zhangsheng, so they were destined not to stir up much trouble.

The other three juvenile Emperor Crocodiles were dealt with by the teammates' numerous Demon Pets, and their fate was not much better.

"Go easy, don't kill them!"

"Mm, only living Emperor Crocodiles are worth money!"

"Glad you understand!"

Whether it was Li Zhangsheng or his teammates, they all struck with great restraint; each Emperor Crocodile was worth hundreds of Soul Crystals.

Among these Emperor Crocodiles, the least valuable were actually the adult ones; for the same species of Emperor Crocodile, there was naturally a significant gap between those raised from a young age and those that grew up naturally.

Soon, the dust settled!

All six Emperor Crocodiles were lying on the ground, having lost their ability to fight.

At this time, the second batch of Emperor Crocodiles began to approach Li Zhangsheng and the others.

This batch only had five Emperor Crocodiles, two adults and three juveniles, but their strength was no worse than the first batch, because that Superior Quality Emperor Crocodile was in this group.

For the sake of safety, Li Zhangsheng specifically handed this Superior Quality Emperor Crocodile to Kailan to deal with; whether in realm, quality, or race, Kailan held the upper hand, and this Superior Quality Emperor Crocodile was destined not to stir up any trouble.

Everything was just as Li Zhangsheng had guessed; not long after, the second batch of Emperor Crocodiles were also lying on the ground.

Including the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile in the narrow path, a total of 12 Emperor Crocodiles were all captured alive by Li Zhangsheng's squad and gathered in one place.

Next, it was naturally time for the spoils distribution segment.

Even though the teammates were all envious, they had self-awareness and unanimously agreed that Li Zhangsheng should take half of the spoils and be the first to choose.

From the perspective of profit, the most valuable was the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile, followed by the six juvenile Emperor Crocodiles, while the five adult Emperor Crocodiles had the least value.

However, except for Li Zhangsheng, no one knew that there was a Superior Quality Emperor Crocodile mixed in with this group of Emperor Crocodiles; this one Superior Quality Emperor Crocodile alone was worth far more than the total value of all the other Emperor Crocodiles combined.

Additionally, because their rank was insufficient, no one present could contract the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile—no, there was someone, Instructor Qian Yuanfei could contract it.

At this moment, Instructor Qian Yuanfei appeared lightly before Li Zhangsheng's squad.

"Instructor, why don't you help me temporarily look after the Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile? I'll sell it after we go back; otherwise, it would be a waste to kill it!"

A living Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile was worth hundreds of Soul Crystals, but if it died, it wouldn't be worth much; including the Elite-Rank Demon Core, it would be worth at most a dozen or so Soul Crystals.

"There is no need for such trouble; I want this Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile! Of course, I won't take it for free; I can exchange this Bloodline Jade with you. What do you think?"

Unexpectedly, Instructor Qian Yuanfei took out a blood-colored jade and actually wanted to exchange it for this Elite-Rank Emperor Crocodile.
