Chapter 2522 - 2520: A Pot of Seafood
Under the one hundred thousand marines of the East Sea, a gigantic whirlpool suddenly emerged from the lake water at this moment.
The enormous suction surged upward, devouring patches of marines into this whirlpool.
"What on earth is happening?"
Everyone shouted madly, quickly scattering in all directions.
Some of them were so frightened that they ascended into the clouds, hastily climbing up the clouds formed by water mist.
At this time, a burst of fire in the sky suddenly swooped down, and the huge flames scorched the void, causing it to crack.
Boom, boom, boom, a series of muffled sounds enveloped over a thousand marines beneath.
A series of miserable screams and cries ensued.
Black smoke arose in the sky, and sizzling, red-braised fish and shrimp started falling to the ground.
One after another, each was a huge creature over ten meters in size.
The aroma of roasted meat awakened the demonic beasts lying on the ground, who then rose and started feasting on the seafood barbecue.
"What on earth is happening here?"
Cang Tianba raised a large knife, shouting, "Who dares to come out and fight me fair and square!"
"I’ll fulfill your wish!"
A red light suddenly appeared in front of him and lunged at him with a raised fist.
He raised his knife to block, and with a shock, the immense force sent Cang Tianba crashing towards the ground.
With a thunderous crash, sand and stones splattered from the ground.
Cang Tianba’s massive body slammed heavily onto the ground, creating a large pit in it.
A young gentleman stood on him, smiling casually, "Big guy, keep going!"
Cang Tianba’s five viscera and six bowels shook violently, shocked at the young man’s great strength.
This one kick almost took half his life.
The Jiulong Lady was anxious to rush down to save him but was blocked by a green light from behind.
A woman’s voice came from this green light, "Little sister, don’t move rashly."
The Jiulong Lady felt a chill on her neck and looked down to see a sharp sword already at her throat.
Cang Tianba looked around in despair, shouting, "Do not harm my wife!"
At this moment, the ten thousand marines were in complete chaos.
The shrimp soldiers and crab generals were being roasted by the fire or swallowed by the underwater whirlpool, with more than half already dead in a moment.
A giant beast rose from the water, revealing a mountain-like black turtle shell.
In the sky, a large crimson demon also revealed its form, its wings spreading over ten meters, its entire body ablaze with fire.
A white light darted through the East Sea marines like a flash of lightning.
Wherever the white light passed, corpses abounded.
The pressure of the True Immortal Realm enveloped all sides, scaring the East Sea marines into panicked retreat.
In a short while, among the hundred thousand marines, all were either dead or escaped, with not a single live marine visible on the lake surface.
Bald Dog placed his hand on the Black Dragon King’s body and chuckled to him and the Seventy-Two Demon Kings, "Well, aren’t these helpers quite adequate?"
The Black Dragon King’s head was sweating, and the Seventy-Two Demon Kings were trembling, nodding rapidly like pounding garlic, "Yes, yes, these are indeed Divine Beasts!"
Black Tortoise, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, and Little Qing all revealed themselves, descending onto the island.
A hundred thousand Little Demons on the island knelt uniformly, intimidated by their presence, not daring to raise their heads in front of the five.
The Demonic Beast might not harbor much reverence for human race masters, but held a deep, instinctual fear for Divine Beasts.
Bald Dog led a group of Demon Kings forward, clasping their fists and bowing to Little Kirin and the others.
Little Kirin chuckled at Bald Dog, "Dog Brother, we didn’t delay anything, did we?"
Bald Dog grinned widely, "No, I even prepared to display a Saint Relic, but now they won’t have the chance to witness it."
He had acquired plenty of good items for protection from Long Fei and Wang Xiaoya.
Even if Little Kirin and the others hadn’t come, he had confidence in holding the line.
Although they could not be driven back, defending was not a problem.
Cang Tianba closed his eyes in despair, finally understanding why these people were so arrogant.
Their attacks involved nothing but Saint Relics or Divine Beast bloodlines.
Such backing and connections were quite intimidating just to think about!
The Jiulong Lady, having been pampered since childhood, had never seen such brutality.
The bodies floated in the lake water, the blood staining the surroundings red.
She cried to Little Kirin and the others, "Don’t harm us, we’ll agree to whatever conditions you propose."
Little Kirin laughed, "Now you know to beg for mercy; weren’t you rather imposing just now?"
Bald Dog clicked his tongue and said, "This fat Sea Dragon boy might be sufficient to make dozens of delicious pots for the brothers, no?"
The Ground Rat Demon King mocked, "You guys eat the meat, and let this Little Dragon Maid marry me as a wife? Let me have a dragon cub to improve my bloodline at home."
The brothers all laughed, "Dragons beget dragons, phoenixes beget phoenixes, and a mouse’s child will burrow holes. Your bloodlines don’t match, you can’t have dragon cubs!"
The Jiulong Lady was so embarrassed and angry she almost fainted, crying, "Thugs, bandits, you’re all bad people!"
Cang Tianba roared and struggled at Little Kirin’s feet, "A gentleman would rather die than be humiliated; just kill me!"
"Don’t worry; with your thick skin, you’re better cooked slowly for a more delicious taste."
Bald Dog patted him on the face and took out a Golden Soft Rope, tying him and the Dragon Maiden together.
He instructed the Little Demons, who were already drooling, and shouted to them, "Little ones, today’s seafood feast is on the house. Go down and haul up all the shrimp soldiers and crab generals in the lake for the Dog Master!"
Oorah!
Oorah!
Oorah!
The Seventy-Two Demon Kings led the charge, cheerfully urging their subordinates to jump into the lake.
In a moment, the water surface roiled, and the cheers were thunderous.
Everyone set up large pots and lit bonfires, cheering loudly and excitedly on the island.
The bodies of enormous shrimp soldiers and crab generals were carried up by the Little Demons.
After months of training, they could now follow basic instructions.
Once brought up, these things were distributed by the Demon Kings.
Every one of the million Little Demons had a share.
Bald Dog was uncharacteristically generous this time, taking out some aged wine from his storage ring and having it distributed among the Little Demons.
He, along with Little Kirin and others, sat together, with the pot boiling with the flesh of the several Ocean Demon True Immortals.
Little Kirin raised his glass and said happily to everyone, "Our Dog Brother is being generous for once; let’s drink to our heart’s content today."
The brothers all laughed, clinking their cups in a collective toast.
"Peach wine, damn, it’s invigorating!"
The Ground Rat Demon King drank heartily, saying with a grin to everyone, "You guys just don’t understand this cunning dog; he never makes a loss. Whatever drinks we’re having now, he’ll find a way to profit later."
Da Heiniu laughed heartily, "I believe that."
Little Kirin and the others laughed, "Dog Brother, quickly tell us, what profitable deal do you have in mind?"
Bald Dog laughed, "Indeed, I have a money-making opportunity."
He gestured towards Cang Tianba and his wife, explaining, "You might not know, but these two are the legitimate daughter and son-in-law of the East Sea Dragon King. If we kill them now, we can have a meal of meat, but if we keep them, we might trade them with the East Sea Dragon King for countless treasures!"
The group laughed knowingly, "As expected of Dog Brother’s thoughtful plan, let’s all get rich together!"
All raised their bowls and drank heartily again.
In the past, Bald Dog had frequently done this with Long Fei and was well-versed in these matters.
Before Cang Tianba came here today, Bald Dog had already prepared a list of their ransom demands.
