Heaven Crocodile Emperor Treats

The Abyss Plane of the Heaven Crocodile Emperor in the middle of the 108th Layer of the Abyss Plane.

Zhou Huan, whom Zhang Lexuan was so fond of, was actually living a fulfilling life, because he was absorbing the energy of a python-shaped Abyss creature that was over twenty meters long. The Floating Pagoda was like a juicer, slowly draining the Abyss energy from the python-shaped creature's body.

After completing his daily three energy-absorbing meals, Zhou Huan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a satisfied smile.

At this point, three months had passed since Zhou Huan "subdued" the Heaven Crocodile Emperor.

During this period, he was able to absorb a large amount of Abyss energy every day without any problems. The number of Abyss creature consumed by Zhou Huan was at least in the millions.

Although Zhou Huan only absorbs energy three times a day, just like eating, the amount he absorbs is increasing, from twice the amount of the Heaven Crocodile Emperor food at the beginning to a hundred times the amount now.

However, the results were significant.

Zhou Huan now feels that he has reached the Half-God level, and if this continues, it won't be long before he breaks through to the god level.

So how could Zhou Huan not be happy?

Seeing Zhou Huan's increasingly "wicked" smile, Le Wuxue couldn't help but say, "Can you stop smiling like a bad guy all the time? It makes me feel like we're doing something sinful."

Zhou Huan, whose smile was interrupted while "casting a spell," didn't seem to care much. Instead, he glanced at Le Wuxue and said, "Now that you've become Dark Angel, why do you care about sin and evil? Isn't this Haozi trying to do a cat's job?"

Upon hearing this, Le Wuxue immediately glared at Zhou Huan and said, "You're the Haozi! What's wrong with the Dark Angel? The Dark Angel didn't eat your rice. Besides, the Dark Angel is just a form; my heart forever holds holy light."

Then, Zhou Huan glanced sideways at Le Wuxue and said, "You ate my rice, and you absorbed just as much Abyss energy."

Le Wuxue: "..."

It's unclear whether the Heaven Crocodile Emperor, who was standing guard nearby, was trying to ease his mistress's embarrassment, but he unusually interjected, "Master, the supply of Abyss creature is insufficient. Starting tomorrow, we must reduce the quantity."

Zhou Huan frowned. Wasn't that enough?

Is it that fast?

Even if he consumed a million Abyss creature during this period, the number of creatures in the first layer of the Abyss World is far more than ten million, perhaps even hundreds of millions.

A mere million organisms, and the supply is already insufficient?

The Heaven Crocodile Emperor seemed to sense Zhou Huan's confusion and immediately explained, "There are indeed many Abyss creature on the 108th Layer, but there aren't that many adults with high energy. Master's food is always the best batch. If we were to kill off a large number of the remaining young Abyss creature, not only would we not get much energy, but it would also be a short-sighted approach that wouldn't last long."

That... actually makes a lot of sense.

Zhou Huan slapped his forehead. He had been focused on quantity and hadn't paid much attention to the quality of the Abyss creature.

But that won't work.

At the current rate, it has taken him three months to go from the initial stage of Limit Douluo to the Half-God level. If he slows down any further, when will he ever reach the God King level?

If it takes a hundred years, or even several hundred years, for him to return to the Douluo Continent, it will be too late.

Even if Zhou Huan gets his revenge by then, his lover and his friends will all be old and dead, so he won't be able to be happy.

Therefore, the medicine... I mean, the Abyss energy must not be reduced, much less stopped, and in fact, its speed must be accelerated.

So, the next step of the plan must be started.

So Zhou Huan looked at the Heaven Crocodile Emperor and said, "Tell your friends you're treating them to dinner."

The Heaven Crocodile Emperor naturally obeyed. "Yes, Master."

Having said that, the Heaven Crocodile Emperor stepped out of the cave and, in the unique manner of Abyss Emperor, began to call upon his friends.

The Heaven Crocodile Emperor's "friends" are naturally also Abyss Emperor: the Earth Crab Emperor of the Abyss 107th Floor, the Lizard Devourer Emperor of the 106th floor, and the Spider Emperor of the 104th floor.

As for why the Green Fox Emperor of the 105th floor was missing, when Zhou Huan raised this question, the Heaven Crocodile Emperor's answer was that it had once pursued the Green Fox Emperor, and then was beaten up. Moreover, the Green Fox Emperor's eldest sister was the Mei Huang, who possessed the strength of Limit Douluo, and should not be provoked.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Huan immediately exclaimed, "Good heavens!" You two are different species, and you want to have a relationship? Or is it that Abyss creature, being energy-based beings, have a different way of reproducing?

Hiss~

Zhou Huan gasped in shock when she first heard this.

The channels involved were too complicated for Zhou Huan to bear in detail.

Soon, at the invitation of the Heaven Crocodile Emperor, the Earth Crab Emperor, the Lizard Devourer Emperor, and the Spider Emperor arrived at the Heaven Crocodile Emperor's lair.

Zhou Huan was also in the cave at this time, but he and Le Wuxue were hiding in the Floating Pagoda.

Zhou Huan noticed that the three Abyss Emperors who entered the cave looked completely different and were very easy to distinguish.

Among them, the one on the left looks like a giant hairy crab magnified hundreds of times, except its shell is red and black, and it looks very hard, the kind that can't be cooked through. It must be the Earth Crab Emperor.

Walking on the right was a lizard-like Abyss creature over twenty meters long, clearly the Lizard Devourer Emperor.

Walking in the very center was a black spider with eight large, hairy legs—undoubtedly the Spider Emperor.

But after entering the cave, the Spider Emperor suddenly turned around, stared at the Heaven Crocodile Emperor, and uttered a hoarse female voice. "Crocodile King, you said you'd treat us, so why don't you have anything here?"

That's right, Abyss creature are that straightforward, especially the Abyss Emperor.

They grow by absorbing energy; besides providing a certain amount to the Energy Rule, they also need to become stronger themselves.

But here's another problem: while there are indeed many Abyss creature, to maintain a long-term balanced development, an Emperor cannot excessively devour his own creatures.

Therefore, after submitting a large portion of their energy to the Energy Rule and the Abyssal Sage King, the remaining Abyss Emperor truly had very little left, making advancement extremely difficult.

Therefore, upon hearing that the Heaven Crocodile Emperor was hosting a dinner party, the Spider Emperor, the Lizard Devourer Emperor, and the Earth Crab Emperor immediately rushed over; otherwise, they wouldn't have bothered leaving their own territories.

After the Spider Emperor raised his question, the Lizard Devourer Emperor and the Earth Crab Emperor also looked at the Heaven Crocodile Emperor with puzzled expressions.

The Heaven Crocodile Emperor replied without any emotion, "It is my master who wishes to see you."

Owner?

What owner?

Upon hearing this, the Spider Emperor was the first to react. Its eight spider legs instantly grew larger, attacking the Heaven Crocodile Emperor like steel spears. It couldn't sense its so-called "master," but the Heaven Crocodile Emperor was clearly no longer the same Heaven Crocodile Emperor it used to be, so it had to take it down first.

Seeing this, the Lizard Devourer Emperor and the Earth Crab Emperor also realized what was happening and launched an attack on the Heaven Crocodile Emperor at the same time.

The Earth Crab Emperor's massive claws slammed towards the Heaven Crocodile Emperor's tail, while the Lizard Devourer Emperor's ten-meter-long black tongue pierced towards the Heaven Crocodile Emperor's neck like a long needle.

However, at this moment, the Heaven Crocodile Emperor remained calm and did not even make the slightest move to resist.

Whether it was the Spider Emperor, the Earth Crab Emperor, or the Lizard Devourer Emperor, they were all filled with questions, unsure of the Heaven Crocodile Emperor's true situation. But the die was cast, and they had no choice but to act.

The next second, when the first snowflake appeared in the cave, the three Spider Emperors all trembled inexplicably, and then found themselves unable to move, as if they had been frozen by the moisture in the air.

Immediately, three light, snow-white hands landed on them.

After a series of crackling sounds, before they could even see the enemy, the Spider Emperor, the Earth Crab Emperor, and the Lizard Devourer Emperor found themselves frozen inside ice pillars.

Then they saw two... humans walk out.

The human man said with a smile, "Greetings, Your Emperor. Let me introduce myself. My name is Zhou Huan, and I will be your master from now on."
