Rumble!
A flash of blue and white lightning struck across the night sky, as the sky and the earth suddenly lit up.
A ferocious animal’s head emerged from the water. There was a horn on it’s flat head, and as the lightning struck, its pupils were bright, like two large lanterns. It stared at Li Xianyu and Great-Grandma coldly.
Even though he could only see half of its head, Li Xianyu could still guess the size. Compared with this foreign species that was almost ready to evolve into a mountain dragon, the salamander floating on the shore was indeed a child.
“It’s a dragon salamander indeed.” Great-Grandma said, “That horn has a lot of medicinal value, and the best option is to soak it in alcohol.”
“Next, do you want to say that one cup of it would be refreshing, two cups will alleviate fatigue and three cups would make you immortal?” Li Xianyu snarked, “We are going to risk our lives. Can you stop thinking about eating and drinking?”
He felt a force of oppression, in the mountains and forests, there was a downpour. The monster’s head emerged from the water, and as the lightning struck, it was staring at them with ferocious eyes like two lanterns.
Ordinary people were expected to piss on the spot when they see it.
“It didn’t approach…” Li Xianyu whispered.
Its bright pupils were glinting with fury and iciness, but somehow the dragon salamander didn’t pounce to tear them apart.
“It’s wary! It has sharp instincts!” Great-Grandma exclaimed in surprise.
She had tried to restrain and keep her breath as steady as possible, but the dragon salamander seemed to have sensed a crisis. It did not lunge over immediately but, like a wolf, cast a cold stare.
Despite the slow speed of this kind of foreign species, its IQ was still present. They would not act recklessly. Ordinary beasts, seeing their own cub’s head explode would just rush to attack madly, regardless of life and death.
“It’s waiting for us to go into the water,” Great-Grandma whispered. “I’m not afraid of it even if we are in the water, but it’s hard to defeat it. If it escapes, I can’t chase it.”
“I can only watch on the shore because I’m going to be killed in seconds if I go into the water.” Li Xianyu analyzed.
“You are self-aware.” Great-Grandma appreciated the calmness of her great-grandchild, that if things went wrong, he would acknowledge his weakness, and will never lack a logical judgment.
“Lure it up!” Great-Grandma said.
When Li Xianyu heard the words, he contemplated for a moment. He entered the water and yelled at the dragon salamander in the distance, “What are you looking at?”
The dragon salamander didn’t respond and looked at them with a cold glance.
“Look at me again, I dare you.”
The dragon salamander still hadn’t responded.
This beast didn’t seem to come from the northeast.
A few days ago, he went to the northeast and heard a joke that Wu Sanjin told him.
The weasel said, “What are you looking at?”
The fox said, “I’m looking at you, so?”
The mouse said, “Look at me again, I dare you.”
The snake said, “Try me.”
The five foreign species families of the northeast often sustained severe injuries after battling due to such reasons.
Look at the Northeast foreign species. How straightforward, Li Xianyu thought.
This couldn’t go on. The dragon salamander wanted revenge, and Li Xianyu wanted to kill it. If it could speak, it would be a cussing match over a gate.
Come hit me if you have the ability. Come here if you can. Li Xianyu thought about it again, and a thought came to mind. He spat at the salamander cub. With a sharp sword aura in his mouth, Li Xianyu spit 18 times in one breath, crushing the cub’s head.
Whipping its corpse in the face of its mother… Li Xianyu felt that the trick should work, though it was a bit immoral.
The dragon salamander looked darkly at Li Xianyu and then dived into the water.
Eh… It’s gone? Li Xianyu said exasperatedly, “Great-Grandma, it looks like you have to go down into the water. I’ll bring you to eat steak later…”
After he finished speaking, Great-Grandma roared, “Be careful!”
The water suddenly burst, accompanied by deafening roars. A flash of lightning happened to strike and it up the ferocious beast that jumped out of the water. It opened her large mouth, like a dark red black hole. It had sharp fangs as saliva dripped and spurted.
How fast! In just a few seconds, she swam dozens of meters towards Li Xianyu. If he was at the bottom of the water, Li Xianyu can type “gg” and leave the keyboard.
But on land, he was more agile than a monkey.
When Great-Grandma warned, Li Xianyu had flown out, then put his hands on the ground, somersaulted and increased the distance between them.
The dragon salamander swooped but missed, and its massive body caused debris that flew from the ground as it landed.
“Doesn’t it have to take a month for it’s confinement period after giving birth?” Li Xianyu was surprised. It was so ferocious.
He held the shield-shaped device in his left hand tightly, and infused zhenqi in it. The runes generated a qi shield. At the same time, he flashed the laser blade in his right hand laser and a one-meter-long laser blade was condensed. The high temperature evaporated the rain and turned it into gas.
Li Xianyu now had the qi cultivation ability of a middle-grade employee and was able to support two spiritual devices. However, he didn’t intend to fight head-on and turned to run.
The giant dragon salamander that was two elephants in size was covered in thick black scales. It had short limbs but sharp claws and, as it climbed, had been able to carve out one sandpit after another.
“Even if her confinement period is one month, a month has passed, my stupid grandson.” Great-Grandma gave chase.
“I can’t escape. I can’t outrun something with four legs on my two legs.” Li Xianyu was pursued almost seconds later. With a frantic turn and a glance, he saw that his Great-Grandma was giving chase. However, the dragon salamander was apparently faster, and she would rip him apart before his Great-Grandma caught up.
I don’t have to run then, I’m just going to fight head-on.
Li Xianyu stopped and turned back. The next moment, the dragon salamander’s massive bloody mouth was about to devour him.
A wind scented with blood blew, as the sticky and thick saliva sprayed on his face. A firm, solid spurt shot at his face.
As Li Xianyu was about to devoured, the surface of his body surface crackled with a crunch, as his muscles generated a lot of electrical charge, which in turn stimulated the cells to explode with astonishing power.
Activate! Swift lightning mode!
Lightning King taught him the lightning technique, and after his qi increased greatly, he finally crossed the threshold. It was not enough to hurt people, but it stimulated muscle cells and produced surging power, which acted like dope.
His speed increased immensely. At the critical moment, he avoided the dragon salamander’s crunch, and barely avoided her mouth. He held the laser blade and slashed the corners of the dragon salamander’s mouth and inflicted wounds longer than ten centimeters.
At this time, Great-Grandma leapt and as lightning flashed in the background, she looked like a Goddess of War.
“I’m here… oops!”
With a flick of the dragon salamander’s tail, Great-Grandma who was in the air was unable to hide and was thrown into the reservoir.
Li Xianyu thought he was safe, and at the sight of this scene, he really felt 10,000 camels running through his heart. Great-Grandma didn’t absorb his essence. She made a huge mistake, and overestimated her great-grandchild.
Then again, if Great-Grandma had absorbed his essence, he might not have outrun the dragon salamander.
Although he had a lot of thoughts, this didn’t impede his actions. Li Xianyu immediately pulled his sword and retreated, and was just about to activate the lightning mode to escape. The dragon salamander suddenly whipped her head to the side and hit his qi shield, and the huge force caused Li Xianyu to topple over.
Then, the dragon salamander’s right limb slammed down, as shield distorted and exploded with a bang. Sharp claws pierced Li Xianyu’s chest and pressed him on the ground.
The giant salamander stared at him from a commanding height, and her dark eyeballs turned into scarlet red pupils. A drop of saliva fell on Li Xianyu’s face.
At the critical moment, Li Xianyu lifted his left arm. His blood vessels lit up and red light flowed, resembling breathing, before his head was bitten by the beast’s massive mouth.
As if he was patting a young woman’s buttocks, he patted the dragon salamander’s right limb.
The gargantuan body of the dragon salamander stiffened visibly. The roar from her throat was no longer ferocious, but there was a slight tinge of sharpness. It was a sound that females emitted only during the sexual cycle.
Don’t blame me for being sick. You’re the one who’s going to eat me first. Li Xianyu dared not let go and still clung to the right limb of the dragon salamander.
“Although I want you dead, but I think I should tell you something,” Slime commented.
“Don’t talk if it’s nonsense. If it’s important, just say it,” Li Xianyu said.
“Wangchen had done this kind of thing before, so I’ve had some experience,” Slime said. “You know, when the mating between foreign species is over, there’s a lot of physical exhaustion and a strong appetite to consume.”
As if in response, the dragon salamander, in the midst of a steady stream of orgasm, increasingly found Li Xianyu who was under her claws to look delectable. She roared lowly and opened her mouth, showing her fangs in an attempt to bite down.
“Hey, ha!”
A long fair leg flashed, delivering a sideways kick. The head of the dragon salamander was crooked, and the huge body staggered.
It’s Great-Grandma! Li Xianyu felt relieved.
Great-Grandma came back and saved her only heir’s life amidst the crisis. She grabbed the dragon salamander’s tail and roared gently. She spun the beast that weighed a tonne around and threw it out.
Li Xianyu took the opportunity to climb up and staggered away in the opposite direction, shouting, “Great-Grandma! Absorb my essence! Absorb my essence!”
Great-Grandma sucked gently and Li Xianyu stumbled while running. He plunged to the ground weakly and gasped.
That’s a close call! I almost lost my life. I can encounter a life-and-death situation when I do a little task. What’s that called?
Great-Grandma’s fair face was rosy as mighty power surged through her body. Great-Grandma looked radiant as she stepped out deep pits on the bank, and leapt high again, looking as majestic as a goddess.
The dragon salamander experienced a huge crisis and raised her body. She roared at Great-Grandma in the air, and the horn on her forehead lit up suddenly.
Boom!
As if it seems to have been called upon, a lightning bolt cut through the black clouds, and struck right at Great-Grandma who was in mid-air.
Oh shit… One would be struck by lightning if he was faking to be badass. But my Great-Grandma is not faking it. Li Xianyu’s heart turned cold.
The dragon salamander was far more formidable than he expected, and it even had the ability to summon lightning. It was not a lie that this thing would turn into a dragon in the future.
The lightning vanished in a flash, and the Goddess of War in the air continued to attack.
The dragon salamander panicked, and this was not like she imagined. As it was a thunderstorm today, she had an edge today. However, she failed to kill the human female with the lightning.
Boom!
Great-Grandma smashed the back of the dragon salamander and crushed her on the ground. She raised her fist and crushed the scales. Her palm pierced into the beast’s spine, and thrust her entire arm in. Great-Grandma roared lowly, her back was bent like a bow, and pulled something out brutally. The lightning struck again, and Li Xianyu clearly saw a huge spine in her hand.
Harrowing growls rang from the dragon salamander. The gargantuan dragon salamander suddenly lost her strength and began to twitch on the ground. Blood ran down her back and dyed the earth under her. It was washed into the reservoir by the rain.
Great-Grandma is awesome. Feeling relieved, Li Xianyu cradled the wound on his chest and ran towards his Great-Grandma.
“I underestimated this guy,” she said, sitting on the corpse of the dragon salamander, gazing at her great-grandson. “The book records that when the mountain dragon emerges, thunderstorms accompany it. I never thought the dragon salamander had the ability to summon lightning. Goodness, it hurts.”
“The essence of a dragon salamander is precious. You can devour the essence and the qi. Don’t waste it.”
She was sitting down because she was paralyzed by lightning and was numb. She grit her teeth and held on previously. Now that the dragon salamander died, she didn’t have to hold on.
The great-grandson who ran towards her suddenly settled down and looked at her in a daze. He then looked down and quietly swallowed his saliva, “G-Great-Grandma…”
She gave a murmur of confusion.
Li Xianyu raised his finger and pointed. “Spring is here…”
Lightning didn’t injure Great-Grandma, but tore her T-shirt and left her temporarily paralyzed. Thus, she didn’t notice anything wrong.
Great-Grandma looked at her chest at her head in a daze, and she was silent.
The air was suddenly quiet.
A few seconds later, Great-Grandma turned silently and said chillingly, “Continue looking and I will gouge your eyes out.”
“Great-Grandma, I suddenly can’t see anything.”
“Shut up!” Great-Grandma said angrily. “Take your clothes off.”
Li Xianyu took off his clothes and handed them over.
She put on the clothes, checked herself and made sure spring was over before she breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Xianyu ran back into the house. He was afraid of losing his wallet during the battle, so he left it in the house. There were several sets of clothes in the wallet for them.
Entering the room, he found a female coat from his wallet. He was just about to run out of the house, when Old Man Xu woke up. He saw a blood-soaked Li Xianyu, and his expression changed dramatically, “What happened to you…?”
Li Xianyu stepped forward and knocked him unconscious again.
You should go back to sleep.
Great-Grandma put on her coat, zipped it up and crossed her arms in front of her chest. She had a cold expression and didn’t talk to him nor look at him.
I just took a glance… Li Xianyu muttered internally. Walking to the dragon salamander’s corpse, he cut her horn with a knife.
The foreign species were also classified, some of which are gifted, like the kappa which could increase virility and beauty was eaten to extinction. However, weasels which only knew how to boast continued to grow in number.
Well, this shows that it’s not good to have talent. Li Xianyu was looking forward to the essence of the dragon salamander. It was not trained in qi but was far superior to the average senior employee, so it showed how powerful its essence was.
“I get to eat, I get to eat!” Slime was overjoyed.
It divided the essence and qi absorbed by Li Xianyu into parts, and after it swallowed and transformed it, it was fed back to Li Xianyu.
The middleman must be earning something.
Li Xianyu touched the corpse and the red veins emerged. The giant body of the dragon salamander shriveled rapidly and Li Xianyu’s left arm turned several times thicker, like the muscular arm of Popeye the Sailorman.
In the end, all that was left of the dragon salamander was a skeleton. The volume reduced immensely.
After a few minutes, the muscular arm returned to normal, while an unimaginable supply of qi poured into his core.
Li Xianyu’s temperature rose rapidly, as his face turned red and steam appeared above his head.
“Great. It’s a powerful force. I feel like I’m officially entering the rank of middle class.” Li Xianyu was pleasantly surprised.
Whether it was mid-level or senior, or even S-class, levels were a very general concept. The top mid-level staff can fight ten opponents of the same rank. Li Xianyu who had previously reached the threshold of mid-level staff, was now at that level.
By the time he integrated his combat experience and many of the tools taught by senior staff together, he would be the best of the mid-level staff. It was his real combat power without Gluttony or Great-Grandma.
When Great-Grandma heard it, her little face brightened and smiled, but she immediately gave a cold grunt.
