"Well then, you see, there's no issue with you guys wanting to enjoy the show."
"However, could you maybe keep so distance? Otherwise, I'll have to step in and save you later. And that would be quite botherso for ."
Yang Yan chuckled wryly as he loudly addressed the crowd around him.
Every word he said clearly reached everyone's ears.
So of them wisely heeded his advice and started moving upwards.
But others acted as if they hadn't heard a thing and stood there like fools.
"Hey! If you get into trouble later, don't bla for not warning you ahead of ti!"
Yang Yan shook his head and said helplessly.
"Boom!"
A sound like thunder overpowered the roar of the Yellow Fruit Waterfall as a massive figure suddenly burst from the depths of Rhino Pool.
Upon seeing this serpent-like creature, the surrounding visitors finally began to scream and run backward.
"I told you, you didn't listen. Did you really think I was standing here like a monkey just for your entertainnt?"
Yang Yan glanced at the screeching and fleeing crowd and shook his head helplessly.
Flood Dragon, also a type of Dragon.
Pond fish, when reaching 3,600, the Flood Dragon arrives bringing growth, able to lead fish flying into whichever water it wishes, the Flood Dragon departs.
This is recorded in "Shuo Wen".
In other ancient Huaxia texts, so say Flood Dragons have slender bodies with four feet, horse heads, snake tails.
Another says it's covered in scales, with whiskered horns and five claws.
Note, these five claws don't an it has five separate claws, but that each claw has five fingers.
The tale of the Flood Dragon has been in Huaxia since ancient tis.
Nowadays, people argue this creature is actually a crocodile.
But anyone from the Hidden World scoffs at such claims.
Truth be told, Flood Dragons are quite rare.
Even Yang Yan had never seen one before.
Yet, however you look at it, this thing is the furthest from resembling a crocodile.
It's basically no different from the mythical dragon in Huaxia legends.
"Who are you? Why are you disturbing my peace?"
As Yang Yan contemplated whether to take care of it directly, the Flood Dragon unexpectedly spoke.
Uh... it can talk?
Seems like I might've misunderstood sothing here!
I assud Flood Dragons were low-level creatures!
Now it appears I was mistaken.
If this guy can articulate human speech, its intelligence must be quite high.
Seeing Yang Yan silent, the Flood Dragon frowned, loudly asking:
"Speak! Are you so awestruck by my greatness that you're rendered speechless?"
Whoa! Seems like this guy is a narcissist too?
Upon hearing the Flood Dragon speak, Yang Yan had yet another realization about this creature.
"Well, I'm interested in sothing at the bottom of your pool."
"Of course, please be assured, I'll trade sothing with you for it."
Yang Yan pondered and decided to negotiate first.
This creature is indeed rare.
And since it's not one to cause trouble, peacefully resolving things is naturally the best choice.
"Sothing from the pool? Good grief! You're here to target my treasure?"
Hearing Yang Yan's words, the Flood Dragon got angry too.
Though it had yet to beco a true dragon, its na did bear the word dragon.
Naturally, it inherited the dragon race's protective fervor fully.
"Ugh! You make things difficult for !"
"You wouldn't dare force to get rough with you, would you?"
"Look at all the people around us! If we fight, there'll be many watching."
Yang Yan shook his head, speaking begrudgingly.
"I'll say it one last ti! Give the item I desire, and I'll return the favor. Otherwise, I'll have to act."
Yang Yan frowned as he spoke.
"You wish! Once I eliminate you, won't everything belong to ? Die!"
The Flood Dragon roared and imdiately attacked Yang Yan.
"Damn! In this day and age, even Flood Dragons resort to sneak attacks?"
"You arrogant creature, do you think I'm not up for a fight?"
Without hesitation, Yang Yan leaped towards the Flood Dragon with a furious shout.
This Flood Dragon was long; its length on the water matched the height of the waterfall behind it, not to ntion what lay beneath the surface.
However, length often doesn't equate to combat capability.
Especially for Yang Yan, this seemingly massive entity is not formidable at all.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Sounds like drums echoed as Yang Yan struck the Flood Dragon repeatedly.
The Flood Dragon was utterly dumbstruck by Yang Yan's fierce assault.
"Stop, stop! What's going on with you?"
After being hit with several strong blows, the Flood Dragon finally realized sothing, unable to resist loudly questioning.
"Dammit! Do I look like I have ti to waste talking? You think we're playing house here?"
"Get on with it, either give what I want or I'll keep hitting till you do, choose one!"
Yang Yan said, staring at the Flood Dragon.
Now, the Flood Dragon was utterly dazed.
Though it hadn't sparred with humans before, it realized this man outmatched it trendously.
And it knew retreating to the pool's depths was of no use now.
After all, anyone capable of thrashing it here would surely be adept at swimming, underestimating it like an insult to dragon intellect.
Even though it wasn't truly a dragon yet.
"Hey, you've been pumling since before, without even telling what you're after!"
The Flood Dragon blinked with so grievance in its voice.
"Uh... Did I not tell you what I wanted?"
Yang Yan glared at the Flood Dragon questioning.
"Nope! You haven't told exactly what you're after!"
The Flood Dragon nodded eagerly.
"Why didn't you say so earlier? I thought I told you, what I'm after is..."
Unable to finish the sentence, Yang Yan faltered.
He's not certain what the origin beneath is at all.
Whether the item down below is even an origin remains unknown.
"Never mind, I better dive in and search myself!"
After speaking, Yang Yan turned to Su Ye, asking her to wait there, then swung his right hand, parting the waters of Rhino Pool like magic.
Rhino Pool's depth surpassed Yang Yan's expectations.
It even took Yang Yan almost a full minute to reach the bottom.
This explains why the creature managed to stay hidden in such a frequented place.
"Oh co on! What kind of junk is this? Do you seriously think I'd want this junk?"
Yang Yan glanced at the Flood Dragon's collection in disdain.
