Chapter 194: Chapter 149: Ruoshan like a Tiger Whale_3
Long Yi was sizing up Ruoshan, who was doing the same to him.
Although Long Yi stood out among humans due to his height, this didn’t change the fact that he was a human. Ruoshan knew that the reason the human Dragon Knights were strong was not because humans themselves were powerful, but because all their strength derived from the Dragon Clan. The Dragon Knights were strong because the Dragon Clan was strong. They, the Tiger Whale Warriors, were different. An adult tiger whale who wished to gain the title of warrior had to do so through battle. Their ultimate goal was the Sea Dragon Clan.
The Dragon Clan resided in the sea too, but they were different from the Earth Dragons. Unlike their counterparts on land, the Sea Dragons didn’t choose knights. They only chose partners. The pride of a dragon wouldn’t permit any creature to ride on their back. Moreover, unlike the Earth Dragons, the Sea Dragons could cast magic spells, making them even more powerful.
The Tiger Whale Warriors had to gain the recognition of the Sea Dragon Clan to become Tiger Whale Warriors by using their own power.
Ruoshan was one such Tiger Whale Warrior. He endured a thirty-minute fight against a sea dragon and with the giant anchor in his hand, broke a rib of the sea dragon.
Although he was finally knocked out by the enraged sea dragon, the sea dragon gave him its blessing in the end, acknowledging his qualifications as a Tiger Whale Warrior.
Ruoshan felt somewhat ridiculous. As an honored warrior, did he have to prove himself by picking on a simple human? However, when it came to battles, one rarely got to choose their opponents.
In essence, this battle was no longer just about Long Yi and Ruoshan. Behind them stood their respective emperors – one from one of the greatest empires on land and the other from the most powerful empire in the ocean. Their battle was like a war between the land and the sea.
This was not merely about victory or defeat.
It was a battle for glory!
"Bajie! The sword!"
Long Yi put away his usual smiling face. He knew that this opponent wasn’t someone he could deal with jokingly. He knew he had to give his all.
Bajie immediately took out the "Frost Mourner" from the void and handed it to Long Yi. Long Yi grabbed the sword and swung it. The air quietly hissed, and a chill descended.
The Sea Emperor’s eyes widened.
The "Frost Mourner" was simply too stunning. Look at its lines, its patterns, and its exquisite carving and ornaments! How was this possible?
The Sea Emperor glanced up at the Emperor but only saw a bitter smile on his face. "Long Yi really knows how to give me problems," he must have thought. "Why doesn’t he just keep the "Frost Mourner" himself instead of showing it off to Elsa? Why try to flaunt that he has a beautiful and powerful girlfriend like this? If he really wants to let everyone know, why not just distribute leaflets on the streets saying ’My girlfriend is Elsa’?"
Seeing the Emperor give him an apologetic look, the Sea Emperor realized that the sword was not an ordinary one. It must be the personal property of Long Yi.
"Ruoshan, that sword is beautiful. Win it for me," ordered the Sea Emperor boldly.
"Your Majesty, can’t we be more subtle? I’m still standing here!" The serious atmosphere Long Yi had built fell apart instantly and he said, doubtingly.
"It does not matter. In front of my Tiger Whale Warrior Ruoshan, your power is trivial. It is perfectly reasonable for me to ask for spoils of war," the Sea Emperor said with a smile. Of course, the field had already been cleared. There weren’t many spectators around, otherwise even the Sea Emperor would feel embarrassed to speak like that.
Mina, the little mermaid standing aside, didn’t think there was anything wrong with it. Squabbles in the sea were much more practical than wars on land. Who would bother to go to war if it didn’t bring any benefits? Mina was very excited to see how Long Yi would react.
"Your Majesty, I’ve heard tiger whale blubber is great for the skin. Shall I carve out a ton or two for you?" Long Yi maliciously looked up and down at Ruoshan’s robust body.
"No, I don’t need it. Let’s forget this idea," answered the Emperor. As a human, he still needed to maintain some dignity.
"No problem, if you don’t need it, you can give it to her majesty, you’re daughter, friends and relatives. If you use it for cooking, it will be great for making soup," Long Yi continued.
"..."
"..."
No one knew how to respond to Long Yi when he said this.
"I think the dragon scale on his chest is rather attractive. Get it for me," finally, the Emperor broke the silence. He had realized that unless he picked an item himself, who knew what nonsense Long Yi would say next.
"Dragon scale?"
Long Yi looked at Ruoshan. On Ruoshan’s chest, within the coral armor, there was a broad blue-black piece of dragon scale. It didn’t seem to catch the eye and in the beginning, Long Yi hadn’t even noticed it.
Seeing Long Yi looking at himself, Ruoshan puffed up his chest in pride. This was the gift he had received from a sea dragon after their fight. The dragon scale bore the blessings of a sea dragon. With the assistance of its Dragon Might, he could fight even more fiercely than before!
"Okay, although it’s not as valuable as my "Frost Mourner," I can take a bit of a loss!" Long Yi showed a fierce smile and waved at Ruoshan in the distance. "Come!"
Ruoshan bared his teeth and grinned, saying, "Human, I suddenly feel like trying to polish my anchor with human oil!"
Irrelevant people quickly retreated. "You first!" Long Yi said.
Without wasting words, Ruoshan suddenly released an inexplicably powerful energy.
"Let’s get started!"
The gigantic anchor, roaring terrifyingly, hurtled straight at Long Yi!
If this thing hit, he’d be screwed!
Long Yi tried to dodge, but strangely, the second he leaped backward, a tremendous suction force arose from the flying anchor. He had hardly got a few steps away when he was drawn toward the anchor!
Damn it! It’s haunting me! (To be continued. If you like this novel, please vote on Qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. For readers using mobile devices, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
