Chapter 468 - 417: Lurking Henchmen, Blood Lotus Takes Shape
"I’m furious, once my injuries are healed, I’ll surely massacre the three counties."
In the turbid waters of the Eastern Lijiang Mountain section, spanning hundreds of zhang, a young crocodile, tattered and no thicker than a baby’s wrist, opened its mouth and silently roared.
The hatred blazing in its eyes seemed like it could not be quenched even by all the waters of the four seas and three rivers.
"First they provoked me repeatedly, luring me away, then they took my child, baiting me to attack the county government and have a deadly fight with Cui Guangling. Then they struck me with a hidden poison, trying to wipe us out in one fell swoop. To think, I actually fell for it..."
The old crocodile was both angry and regretful, furiously knocking its head against the sands and mud at the bottom of the river. This time, the loss was tremendous.
The beloved offspring that I nurtured from an egg, with its profound foundation and deep spirituality, hoped to enter the True Martial realm almost immediately upon hatching, with the help of heavenly fate.
With countless human bones and blood to supplement its intelligence, its cultivation would progress at an extraordinary pace, and it even had the hope of reverting to its ancestral dragon form...
When that time came, as we were connected by blood, a bit of fortune would have meant limitless prospects for myself.
At the very least, I would no longer be at the mercy of others, powerless to resist.
I should have been a major force, holding vast and fertile territory as my foundation, and from there, establish the basis for achieving enlightenment.
But all that was destroyed.
