Looking at the trembling, furious Ink Flood Dragons opposite him, Lu Ming also felt a bit awkward.
“Haha... Sorry about that. It’s mostly because we’ve never seen such heroic and majestic figures as yourselves before... Is there something you need?”
At the same time, he couldn't help but marvel inwardly. He hadn't expected sea demon beasts to be so well-mannered.
They were so angry they were shaking, yet they hadn't attacked yet.
If this were the Eastern or Northern Provinces, pointing fingers at a Unity-stage expert like this would get you instantly sent to the grave.
At this moment, the male Ink Flood Dragon was so enraged he almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.
You see us and you actually have the nerve to ask if there's something we need?
Obviously, we want our eggs!
Suppressing the fury in his heart, he spoke in a freezing voice:
“Return our flood dragon eggs to us...”
Hearing this, Lu Ming realized he had misunderstood. These Ink Flood Dragons weren't well-mannered; they were just holding back out of caution!
“Could there be some misunderstanding?”
Lu Ming asked.
Because he truly hadn't seen any Ink Flood Dragon eggs.
“Hmph... Misunderstanding? You're parked right next to our Ink Flood Dragon nest, and you call it a misunderstanding...”
Hearing this, Lu Ming finally noticed that right next to their spirit boat...
...was a nest lined with Golden Silk Firefly Grass.
However, the nest was currently empty...
There were certainly no Ink Flood Dragon eggs inside.
“Third Junior Brother, did you take the eggs inside?”
Lu Ming sent a sound transmission to Huang Tianbao.
“I did...”
Huang Tianbao transmitted back.
Hearing that Huang Tianbao had indeed taken them, Lu Ming's eye twitched. He hadn't expected his junior brother to actually be the culprit.
“Then hand them over!”
Lu Ming transmitted again. No matter what, they had to produce the eggs first before planning their next move.
“I advise you to return the eggs...”
At that moment, the leading Ink Flood Dragon opposite them ground his teeth and urged.
He couldn't understand how two humans and a dog had managed to slip into his heavily guarded territory.
Lu Ming transmitted to Huang Tianbao once more:
“Third Junior Brother, hand them over!”
“I can't...”
Huang Tianbao replied.
“Why not?”
Lu Ming inquired via transmission.
“I fried and ate them... Well, there were three in total. I ate one, and there are two warm ones left. I saved them for you and Second Senior Brother...”
Lu Ming opened and closed his mouth. What a good kid, at least he knows not to keep all the food to himself.
“Listen up. Don't say a word. Just do exactly what I tell you to do.”
They had literally fried and eaten the other party's future offspring.
If the dragons could tolerate this, the word “hatred” wouldn't even exist in this world.
Not to mention, the opponent was a Unity-stage sea demon.
Huang Tianbao nodded repeatedly. Listening to Eldest Senior Brother was always the right choice.
Then, Lu Ming looked at the furious Ink Flood Dragons with a beaming smile.
“Everyone, please don't be anxious...”
The Ink Flood Dragons: Of course you're not anxious, they aren't your offspring...
“It’s like this: the three of us are quite cowardly...”
Hearing Lu Ming's words, the Ink Flood Dragons didn't believe a single word. If they were cowardly, would they have stolen someone's eggs?
“How about this? Let my two brothers leave first. I'm mainly worried that once you get the eggs back, you'll fry us instead.”
The Ink Flood Dragons were slightly confused. Why did this guy say he was afraid they would fry them?
Shouldn't he be afraid of being killed or devoured?
A dark gleam flashed in the male Ink Flood Dragon's eyes, but he agreed anyway:
“Fine!”
Getting the eggs back was the top priority.
Seeing that the Ink Flood Dragon had agreed, Lu Ming turned to Big Yellow and Huang Tianbao.
“Hurry up and run... Go as far as you can...”
Big Yellow, who still hadn't figured out what was going on, asked in confusion,
“Why?”
Lu Ming then briefly explained how Huang Tianbao had fried and eaten their eggs.
Hearing that there was still some saved for it, Big Yellow licked its chops and looked at Huang Tianbao.
Good grief, this kid is a real trouble magnet.
Then, it turned to look at Lu Ming.
“Eldest Brother, don't worry. We will definitely run as fast as we can...”
“By the way, if you die, we'll set up a cenotaph for you...”
“And we'll carry the banner of the Qingshan Sect...”
“Right, right... Second Senior Brother is right.”
Huang Tianbao chimed in.
Lu Ming froze. Are these guys even speaking human?
Just as Lu Ming was dazed, Big Yellow raised a paw and kicked him off the spirit boat.
Then, without looking back, it and Huang Tianbao drove the spirit boat and fled...
It was still waiting to eat those eggs; it wouldn't taste good if they got cold.
Lu Ming: “...”
I want to beat them to death.
The leading Ink Flood Dragon originally had some suspicions about whether the eggs had been damaged by Lu Ming.
But seeing the human and dog leave so decisively...
...the eggs were probably fine. Otherwise, they wouldn't have left so lightheartedly.
They didn't seem worried about the safety of the person left behind at all.
Hmph... Today, I'll show you the cruelty of the world.
Once I get the eggs back, I'll kill them to soothe my nerves.
After Huang Tianbao and Big Yellow had been gone for a moment, the Ink Flood Dragon spoke up:
“You can return the eggs now!”
Lu Ming still maintained his harmless expression as he said,
“Senior, let's wait a bit longer... After all, with your strength, we are really terrified!”
The Ink Flood Dragons had no choice but to keep waiting.
After waiting for a long time, the male Ink Flood Dragon completely lost his patience.
“That's enough!”
Lu Ming nodded, looking as though he was about to pull the eggs out of his storage bag.
Suddenly, Lu Ming pointed at the leading male Ink Flood Dragon and yelled,
“Look! He's not wearing any pants!”
The Ink Flood Dragons were all stunned. My god, is there a dragon streaking?
They instinctively looked at their male leader.
Taking advantage of this opening, Lu Ming swiftly retrieved the cloak of invisibility he had taken from the Sect Master’s coffin and threw it over himself.
By then, the Ink Flood Dragons also realized—they were in their true forms, so wasn't it completely normal not to wear pants?
The leading male Ink Flood Dragon roared in fury, his demonic energy surging violently.
His dark, blue-black scales shimmered with a faint green light as demonic energy poured into them. With a twist of his massive body, he struck out at the spot where Lu Ming had just vanished.
The strike tore through the seawater, letting out a piercing screech.
Lu Ming felt a sudden wave of pain wash over him, as if his internal organs had been shifted out of place.
However, he didn't dare to make any sudden movements.
Riding the shockwave of the attack, he slowly retreated.
He didn't dare to move too fast, fearing the three Unity-stage Ink Flood Dragons would detect him.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
Following that, the three Unity-stage Ink Flood Dragons unleashed a barrage of attacks on the area.
However, they failed to find any trace of Lu Ming.
“Dammit, we were tricked by that kid...”
The male Ink Flood Dragon cursed furiously. Just as he was about to order the other beasts to search for them...
...one of the female Ink Flood Dragons suddenly cried out in shock,
“My baby! My baby...”
Her body flashed as she appeared in front of a patch of seaweed.
Wedged in the seaweed was an empty shell of an Ink Flood Dragon egg.
The three Unity-stage Ink Flood Dragons exchanged glances.
They suddenly understood why Lu Ming had said he was afraid they would fry them.
Those bastards had clearly fried and eaten their eggs!
The male Ink Flood Dragon couldn't help but roar to the heavens,
“If I do not avenge this, I swear I am no longer a flood dragon!”
“Well, you can always transform into a dragon then!”
Just then, a highly punchable voice drifted out from a nearby vortex.
