Schools of Treasure Fish swam in, vying to feed on the Blood Pill, while the soldiers who had been waiting pulled the rope together.

The blue silk threads were taut and straight, and the entire fishing net leaped out of the mud and sand, rising rapidly to surround the foraging Treasure Fish!

Crackle, crackle.

The fish struggled violently, bumping into things, and splashing water everywhere.

Liang Qu had never seen so many Treasure Fish swimming online before. Although he knew that the essence provided by these hundreds of Treasure Fish might not be as good as half a Golden Gong Fish, the visual experience was still stunning.

The shuttle boats pull each other together, quickly closing in and causing the Treasure Fish to fall into the net, unable to escape.

Snakehead fish, pomfret, and other common fish were thrown out of the net one after another, leaving only the "Hammerhead Fish," which are about the length of a forearm and look like a club.

Hammerhead Fish is one of the common Treasure Fish found in the Jiang Huai Great Marsh.

Two or three of the same size are comparable to one Tiger Head Grouper, and they are far inferior to the Bullhorn Pomfret.

"Silver Sand!"

Junhan pulled a Da Bao, shimmering silver fish out of the net, his expression excited.

The field Record Keeper shouted, "Good! Come aboard and let me weigh you. It weighs five jin. You four will each receive a merit!"

Silver Sand are of much better quality than Hammerhead Fish. A pound of silver sandfish can sell for at least eight ounces. You might accidentally get mixed in with the other fish in the school.

The other soldiers envied the other's good luck and became even more enthusiastic in their search for fish, trying to find the good Treasure Fish mixed in with their own nets.

It's truly teeming with life, with everything flourishing.

Liang Qu recalled the glorious past, saying that he would be happy for a long time if he could catch a Silver Sand.

That was probably the happiest time of his life...

Hmm.

Liang Qu's mind flashed through images of mansions, delicacies, Water Beast, and Dragon Girl... and suddenly he became less certain.

"Look! The sun!"

"Bing Fire! Bing Fire!"

The soldier raised his hand and pointed diagonally to the sky.

As if guided, people looked up.

A dazzling light shone in the sky.

The enormous Sun Wheel resembled a melting candle, dripping large clumps of wax. The wax trembled several times before coalescing into a round, blazing sun, illuminating all directions.

The world is a vast expanse of pure white.

Liang Qu squinted, staring at the small, blazing sun that was much smaller than usual, and leaned against the railing, feeling invigorated.

"It's finally here!"

Whether there's a guaranteed win or not will soon be revealed! "Watch out, there's Spirit Monster!"

"I'll do it!"

Liang Qu's Golden Eye burned, he drew his bow and nocked an arrow, and in an instant, a silent, cold light pierced the sky.

Pfft.

Fresh blood gushed and surged.

The Spirit Monster, which pierced through the front and back of the skull, fell to the bottom of the water.

"A Wolf Fish, let's haul it in, it'll be an extra treat for the brothers today!"

"Good!"

"Lord Liang is mighty!"

Deep in the Jiang Huai Great Marsh.

The fishing fleet at River Conservancy Office had a great harvest, while the Dragon Palace's Central Court was filled with sorrow.

The Azure Serpent flicked its tongue. "You're saying that Scarlet Scale and the others were captured by the human Martial Saint?"

The Snake Demon lay prostrate on the ground, trembling with fear.

"Replying to Lin Lord, I obtained information from Pingyang Prefecture. To verify the truth, I traveled south to Ning Jiang Prefecture and searched for several days before finally finding the Martial Saint's carriage in a port."

It should have been anchored for several days. Only a few servants on board were cleaning and tidying it up. I didn't dare to get close at the time, and only glanced at it from a distance.

In the harbor, all four of them, including Scarlet Scale, had chains pierced through their spines and were chained to the front, to be used like cattle and horses...

"Is he really Martial Saint?" Lin Lord was unwilling to believe it.

Indeed, the human race called him the King of Yue.

"The King of Yue..."

silence.

A long silence.

"It's right not to get close."

The Snake Demon's tense mind relaxed slightly.

"Where's the White Ape?"

"Looks like... we didn't catch them."

"Do you know the reasons behind this? Where did things go wrong?"

"This... is also unclear."

He knew nothing when asked.

The Snake Demon trembled all over.

The only witnesses to the whole incident were King of Yue, Su Guishan, Liang Qu, the Snake Demon, and the Great Monster Spirit.

More than a dozen Great Monster Spirit were decapitated, and four Snake Demon were captured by the Martial Saint. Let alone questioning them, they couldn't even get close.

The Snake Demon pondered deeply, "Oh, there is one! I've heard that the Four Scarlet Scale Snakes were captured because they bumped into the Martial Saint's carriage! The villagers all say that the Lord River God saw the King of King of Yue's virtue and sent an envoy to assist King of Yue!"

"..."

The Snake Demon regretted her words immediately after speaking, wishing she could whip herself with her tail.

Why should I say an extra word? What a load of bull, River God.

A soft sigh.

"Go down."

The Snake Demon shuddered, quickly agreed, and shuffled off the ground as it left the main hall.

Lin Lord pondered for a moment, then turned and headed towards the Dragon Palace.

In just a quarter of an hour.

The earth trembled, green scales twitched, and the long-dormant Lord Ran raised its head, causing countless Snake Demon to scatter in terror.

Russian.

Four large snakes ran in four directions.

The Flood Dragon summons the four pillars once more!

cave.

The Toad sat up and scratched its butt.

"So annoying."

Splash!

The frog's feet pushed off the ground, and the torrent roared.

The messenger snake was caught off guard and was knocked to the ground by the water flow.

The Old Toad stood on the Da Pang's head, jumping up and down and shouting loudly. After the snake left, it grabbed the Da Pang man's head and pulled it back forcefully.

"That Long Insect is truly determined to destroy my Frog Clan clan! No wonder I was restless and uneasy while staying at home the other day, as if I were being watched by a demon. Now I finally know the reason. It must be that Long Insect plotting something to harm my Frog Clan Great King!"

Da Pang was forced to tilt his frog head back and meet the Elder's gaze, looking utterly shocked.

"Is that so?"

Er Pang's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he gestured with his webbed hands towards his short, fat neck.

"Elder, since that's the case, why don't we, the Frog Clan, strike first and take down the Flood Dragon!"

"Fool, you mustn't!" The Old Toad jumped from Da Pang's head to Er Pang's head and smacked him several times.

Er Pang shrank his big head, puzzled, and asked, "Elder, why not?"

A glint of light flashed in the Old Toad's eyes. "The time is not yet ripe! Great King Toad, though your talent is unparalleled, you are still a step below that Flood Dragon!"

Da Pang Er Pang stared at each other.

Is the time not yet right?

"Frog Elder, didn't you always say that the time was right and we should raise an army today? It's just that the Great King has always disagreed..."

The Old Toad, with its webbed feet, gazed up at the lotus leaves at a 45-degree angle and sighed deeply.

"Who hasn't been impulsive when they were young?"

Er Pang scratched his head.

He clearly said last year when he forged the divine weapon that he would use his claws to Flood Dragon, and less than a year has passed.

Did the Elder age so quickly?

The Da Pang humbly asked, "Elder, when do you think we should wait?"

"Hmph, the wisdom gained through trials tells me that the day when the Frog Clan dominates the Great Marsh is not far off!"

The two days are in the sky.

The heat waves and water waves mixed together, making it impossible to distinguish the boundary between them.

"Is there any ice water left? Please help us!" Liang Qu poured out the kettle, but it was empty.

"Make room for the fish. It's frozen. You want to drink it? It'll smell fishy when you soak it. We've been out for over ten days. Where are we going to get that much ice water for you to drink?" Ke Wenbin, wearing only a pair of shorts, sat in the shade, blowing on the Ice Platform.

Anyway, the ship is full of men, so it doesn't matter.

"It's been more than ten days..."

Liang Qu silently calculated and realized that thirteen days had passed since he set off, and the second day of the Bing Fire Day had arrived.

Eleven days passed, Ze Cauldron made no move whatsoever.

I wonder if there will be any activity before the end of the entire Bing Fire Day.

"Sir, there is still a lot of saltpeter left on the ship, and there are also mung beans in the kitchen. Why don't we have the cook make some mung bean soup?" the field Record Keeper asked, bowing.

"Go immediately! This is a military order!"

"Yes!"

Thump.

Liang Qu stepped onto the railing and jumped into the water.

Unexpectedly, the surface of the Great Marsh was scorching hot. It took several meters of diving down to feel cool and refreshed, with my pores opening wide.

At this moment.

Suddenly, a message arrived from the Fat Catfish.

"The Flood Dragon is now called the Four Pillars?"
