Chapter 968: Chapter 972: I Am a Willful
“This king will leave after taking a look at you!”
The Mermaid King was still there. By the time the giant octopus reacted, it had already disappeared.
“No, I’m not. No! Sigh! Great King! Please save me!”
The giant octopus had never thought that its king would have such a reaction.
Right, the king had warned him from the start to be careful of an expert who had come to the forbidden area.
Now, the king had returned in fear.
Could it be that the expert was right in front of him?
“Pfft, haha! This giant octopus was really funny! He didn’t expect to be slapped in the face this time!”
The giant octopus’s reaction made the people of the Yaoling Sect laugh so hard that they could hardly breathe.
“Since this octopus is so good at harming people, I’ll capture it and let you guard the door.”
Xiao Changtian looked at the octopus and shook his head helplessly.
The giant octopus looked at the situation in front of him and understood.
The so-called expert was the mortal he looked down on in the beginning.
No wonder those people said that person was their senior. He was really blind.
Now that even the Mermaid King was so afraid of him, he would definitely lose his life if he continued to overestimate himself and attack.
Thus, the octopus did not dare to disobey Xiao Changtian’s orders.
Looking at Xiao Changtian, the giant octopus didn’t even dare to breathe.
At that time, in the Mermaid Race.
The two envoys stood in the Mermaid Tribe’s main hall and examined the Mermaid Tribe Chief.
“Mermaid tribe leader, you have three days to hand over all the offerings. If you can’t do it in three days, you know the consequences.”
These two envoys were from the East Sea Altar.
The Mermaid Tribe wasn’t the only tribe in the entire Eastern Sea, but the other tribes lived in seclusion.
Therefore, if it wasn’t for the creatures of the Eastern Sea, they wouldn’t even know of their existence.
And inside this altar were the seniors of the various races in the East Sea.
“But, emissary, didn’t you say that we only needed to pay 500 gold coins? How did it rise to 5,000 now?”
The Mermaid Race Patriarch looked at them with a troubled expression.
Over the years, these two envoys had become more and more demanding of offerings.
Moreover, the merfolk lived in the sea all year round and did not need gold coins at all. Now, these two envoys wanted him to take out so many at once.
The Mermaid Race Patriarch was also in a difficult position.
“We don’t care how you get the gold coins. The price of the offerings has increased. If you can’t get it out in three days, just wait for us to come again.”
The two messengers snorted coldly at the Mermaid Race Patriarch and disappeared.
“Damn it! Where am I going to find so many gold coins for them?”
The Mermaid Race Patriarch said angrily after seeing the two of them disappear.
These two envoys were getting more and more arrogant. Did they think that he was the envoy of the East Sea Altar?
The two envoys were very excited on the way back.
“Hahaha, I can get a lot of money again this time. At that time, the two of us brothers can go to the human world to have a good time.”
“Hahaha, yes, but we can’t continue like this. Those merfolk are all very smart. If we continue like this, they might rebel at any time.”
“Then what should we do? Could it be that they dared to ignore the altar of the East Sea?”
“I have an idea, and that is to pay attention to our East Sea altar team. It would be best if he could get an ancestor or something.”
The two envoys were deep in thought on the way.
“Right, I remember that in the Mermaid Tribe’s forbidden land, there was an Octopus Patriarch with the strength of a Sage Sect. Although I don’t know how he became a Patriarch with such strength, he is indeed the number one Patriarch.”
At this moment, a messenger thought of something and said slowly.
“With such an old ancestor, I don’t believe that the mermaids would dare to rebel.”
“Good idea!”
Therefore, the two of them hit it off. They planned to go to the Mermaid Tribe three days later to ask for gold coins and look for Patriarch Octopus.
On the other side, Xiao Changtian brought the people behind him back to the Mermaid Tribe.
“Senior, I didn’t expect you to return so soon!”
The Mermaid Tribe Leader was very surprised. He did not expect that all the people who went in this time would come out!
“Aiya, Mermaid Clan Leader, it’s just a little scary in the beginning. There’s basically nothing scary in the later stages.”
Xiao Changtian smiled at the Mermaid Tribe Chief.
The reason why the Mermaid Race felt that it was terrifying was definitely because the Mermaid Race was not used to the environment and their bodies would show all kinds of symptoms.
Although the Mermaid Clan Leader didn’t show any reaction on the surface, he was shocked.
Not only did he bring the people behind him out safely, but he also said that the forbidden area was not terrifying at all.
Just how powerful was he?
“Wait! You guys…Then why is there such a big octopus behind it?”
The Mermaid Tribe Chief was shocked when he saw the giant octopus in the distance.
Then! That seemed to be their mermaid clan’s Patriarch Octopus!
How could this be! Why was he tied up like this?
Perhaps the other merfolk didn’t know what the octopus was?
He was the chief of the Mermaid Race, and he was very clear about it. Their family tree clearly recorded the Octopus Patriarch.
“Aiya, that octopus is doing so much evil in the forbidden land. It’s better to catch it and let your Mermaid Race guard the door.”
Xiao Changtian saw the reaction of the Mermaid Clan Leader and knew.
The Mermaid Tribe Chief had never seen such a big octopus before, or else he wouldn’t have such a big reaction.
“Here… To guard the door for our Mermaid Race?”
The chief of the Mermaid Race looked at Xiao Changtian, swallowing his saliva.
“That’s right! You can’t just roast it and eat it, right?”
Besides, he couldn’t start a fire in the sea. If he could, Xiao Changtian really wanted to roast this octopus.
Such a big octopus would definitely be enjoyable to eat.
After the octopus heard Xiao Changtian’s words, its body trembled violently again.
That expert actually wanted to roast him at first!
It was simply too terrifying!
No, no, from now on, he must listen to the words of the expert.
If the expert was unhappy, he might really roast him and eat him!
“Right, big octopus, you are willing to guard the door for the Mermaid Race, right?”
Xiao Changtian shouted at the giant octopus when he saw the Mermaid Clan Leader panicking.
He had taken the mermaid race’s spirit tree seed, so there was nothing to compensate them.
This octopus looked fierce and could help the mermaid race maintain their reputation.
“Yes… That’s right! I volunteered! I volunteered to guard the Mermaid Tribe!”
After hearing Xiao Changtian’s words, the octopus did not dare to act rashly and immediately replied loudly.
“Ha… Ha, that’s great.”
The Mermaid Race Patriarch was so shocked that his jaw almost fell off.
