Chapter 1012 - 1011: The Herb Called Pill
Thinking of this, the two priests looked at Ji Nuan with bright eyes: "Shaman Ji Nuan, may we take a look at this herbal medicine you called a ’pill’?"
Ji Nuan struggled to suppress the twitching sensation at the corners of her mouth.
Herbal medicine called a pill?
I’d like to see that too.
"A pill is not a herbal medicine; it is a small round ball made from a few kinds of herbs. It can be taken directly when it’s inconvenient to brew bitter medicinal concoctions."
Ji Nuan thought she had explained it clearly, but looking at the confused expressions of the two priests, she couldn’t help but sigh in resignation.
"I’ll bring it over for the priests to see tomorrow."
The Whale Priest and the Python Priest nodded in satisfaction. That was exactly the outcome they wanted.
"Ouch, that hurt!"
A cry of pain came from Mang Gu, who had just been flung away by the tail of the Ferocious Crocodile.
Ji Nuan held back the laughter that was about to burst out, her face almost turning red.
Seeing Mang Gu’s enthralling landing posture, was it the legendary "ass-backward, like a wild goose plummeting onto the flat sands"?
When their own clan’s child was swept over, the Python Priest couldn’t just stand by.
He immediately stepped forward to help him up: "Where did it hit you?"
Mang Gu, pale with pain, his lips drained of color, pointed miserably at his buttock: "Here... this place."
Ji Nuan and the Whale Priest looked in the direction he indicated, and oh boy!
Ji Nuan could swear that it was the most perked-up rear she had ever seen, without equal.
Yet, this perked-up butt wasn’t natural, but created by the force of the beast, and the process was somewhat painful.
Now that the sculpted Mang Gu had fallen in battle, only Jingluo remained in the combat arena.
It must be said that Jingluo had become a third-level Orc earlier than Mang Gu. Although in a sorry state, he had not been flung back like Mang Gu.
But the Ferocious Crocodile lived up to its fierce reputation; every swipe of its claws or lash of its tail generated gusts of breaking wind.
The force behind those attacks was immense.
The Poisonous Sea Beast, that even two third-level orcs could barely handle, was more than a match for Jingluo alone.
Not long after Mang Gu was flung away, Jingluo’s strength began to flag too.
Finally, in one moment of attack, the Ferocious Crocodile seized its opportunity.
Just as he was relieved to have dodged the crocodile’s claws, a gust of breaking wind came from behind him.
You have to admit that this brainy Ferocious Crocodile had got a nasty surprise for him.
That thick crocodile tail aimed right for Jingluo’s head, and if it had connected, Jingluo, the handsome young lad, likely wouldn’t see tomorrow’s sunrise.
Down below, the Whale Priest’s eyes were as wide and round as if he were wearing cosmetic contacts, filled with nothing but terror.
"Jingluo, watch out!"
The Whale Priest felt as though his heart was bleeding. Was the next clan leader and heir that the tribe had raised going to perish just like that?
However, Ji Nuan wasn’t worried at all, for Ya Li was just a few steps away from Jingluo.
At the moment the crocodile tail was about to hit Jingluo, a pitch-black snake tail, creating a gust of wind, collided with that thick crocodile tail.
The clash between the two tails sent the somewhat weakened Jingluo flying away.
He landed on the sandy beaches at the edge of a sea island.
With a kick that sent a Poisonous Sea Beast, which had tried to take him for an easy target, flying, Jingluo stood up and looked towards the battle between Ya Li and the Ferocious Crocodile.
By this time, Ya Li had transformed into his beast shape, his giant black python form not much smaller than the Ferocious Crocodile. The fight between the two beasts was a pure physical confrontation, utterly savage.
