Protect Our Clan Leader

“This Crocodile has appeared before,” Wang Dinghai explained with a grave face, “Every year, it roams up and down the Peace River, covering hundreds of miles in its territory. No matter whose fishing fleet comes across it, they fearfully avoid it at all costs. Occasionally, some humans and livestock are injured along the riverbank.”

“What? Did no families ever try to deal with it?” Wang Shouzhe frowned.

“Of course they did, all of them failed though,” said Wang Dinghai. “The creature is very cunning and extremely difficult to deal with in the water. Even an ancestral figure wouldn’t dare to jump into Peace River and wrestle with it. Moreover, it has a fierce temper. Whoever dares provoke it, it will retaliate relentlessly, disrupting the fishing business.”

Indeed, level three fierce beasts are different. In terms of strength and wisdom, they are incomparable to level two.

Although the Crocodile is not as cunning as land-based fierce beasts like tigers, it is particularly troublesome and vengeful compared to ordinary sea creatures.

It is basically a pestilence.

As for seeking a Heavenly Human Realm to deal with it, that is even more unlikely. In Changning Town, there are only three Tianren Realm Cultivators.

Two of them are the old ancestors of the heavenly human prominent families, the other one is the Mansion owner of the first capital city. They are all individuals of extraordinary status and position.

Asking them to go underwater against a level three Crocodile, regardless of the potential danger, considering the crocodile’s extreme cunningness, it could completely engage in guerrilla warfare under the water.

It comes and goes as it pleases, if you leave, it might return in a month or two.

Therefore, aquatic fierce beasts, especially vengeful ones, are the most difficult to deal with.

“This is troublesome,” Wang Dinghai said with a bitter face. “Now is the end of the fishing season, I was planning to accumulate more resources for the family during this time. Being targeted by this pestilence would strictly disturb our plans for at least the latter half of the year.”

Wang Shouzhe also felt a headache.

Lately, the family’s spending has escalated rapidly, consuming Qian Gold and all sorts of resources steadily.

We are already in a state of deficit, if the fishing fleet and fish stalls, which are the two main pillars of cash flow, cease operations, it would be a fatal blow to the family’s emergence and development.

The two old ancestors need to consume resources, right? We can’t expect them to maintain their lives with the bare minimum, can we?

Several promising children in the family, as well as the young people, are at the critical moment of growth, cutting anyone’s resources would be burying their future.

As the first-in-line, Wang Shouzhe naturally consumes a lot as well, but he can’t stop his own resources, can he?

If he missed this crucial moment of growth, cultivating to the Spirit Platform Realm would likely take forever.

“Uncle, can you assure me that it will not return next year if we lay low for half a year?” Wang Shouzhe’s eyes glinted ominously.

“Of course, I can’t promise that,” Wang Dinghai said helplessly. “Not to mention that even if it leaves, it might return one day. I estimate that several hundred kilometers of Peace River are within its territory.”

” So it’ s truly a pestilence. “After weighing the options, Wang Shouzhe finally made up his mind. “We must eliminate it, otherwise the momentum of our family’s rise would be destroyed by it.”

Eliminate it?

Wang Dinghai was dumbfounded.

When did our Wang family become so formidable?

We can just eradicate a level three aquatic fierce beast, just like that?

“Uncle, you and the others be careful these days,” Wang Shouzhe warned. “In a few days, I will think of a way to eliminate it.”

Although he didn’t understand, Wang Dinghai still chose to trust his nephew who had repeatedly defied the odds.

A few days later, in the middle of Peace River.

A level three Water Elemental Turtle was swimming leisurely in the wide torrential river, as if it was experiencing the exhilaration of a dragon returning to sea.

With such a huge expanse of water, it is much better than that smaller area of Zhuwei Lake.

It surfaced, blowing out water, feeling contentment.

“Enjoy yourself, but don’t forget the main task.” On the boat, Wang Shouzhe, with his hands behind him, spoke to the Water Elemental Turtle casually, “You have already merged with my bloodline, and I have one strand of your divine soul in my hands. With just one thought, I can destroy both your body and soul.”

The Water Elemental Turtle, which had levelled up to level three and grown much larger, shrank back at Wang Shouzhe’s words, shivering in terror.

This young man was too much. Despite the turtle agreeing to be the spiritual beast of the Wang family, he still took its essence blood and refined it using an ancient dark art. The art, that can end its life and soul with just a thought, is terrifying.

Instantly, the Water Elemental Turtle gave an ingratiating grin to Wang Shouzhe, indicating if the family head commands, it the turtle, no, the little turtle would risk everything to obey.

“Stay under the boat, hide your figure.” Wang Shouzhe instructed. “Be ready to ambush the Level Three Crocodile at any moment.”

The Water Elemental Turtle obediently submerged and hid in the shadow of the boat.

To Wang Shouzhe, the best way to deal with an aquatic fierce beast was to use another aquatic fierce beast.

The Water Elemental Turtle naturally became his greatest assistance. However, as a top-level Two Turtle, it’s impossible to compete with a level three crocodile. Forcing it to fight would be suicide.

Therefore, Wang Shouzhe considered using his last Heavenly Spirit Pill.

This Heavenly Spirit Pill was an extra gain, accumulated over decades after Zhao Clan had stolen the basic resources of Wang family.

Wang Shouzhe had also pondered and calculated its use.
