At that moment, every soldier and officer at Huangpu River War Base had the same thought.
Was he hiding his strength all this time just so he could play the pig to eat the tiger?
With his current strength and status, he was really devious enough!
That was their shared thought.
The sea monsters saw that their leader had died and immediately scattered like birds, fleeing the area without daring to pause for even a moment, afraid they would become ice statues if they were too slow.
"Boring." Seeing the Sky-Screaming Beast killed in a single move, Guan Ning lost all interest. With a wave of his hand, the pitch-black ice sword turned into vapor and dissipated into the world.
Looking at the stunned Li Dawei and the others below, Guan Ning seemed to think of something and revealed a mischievous smile.
"Many thanks to Councilor Guan today. If not for your great display of power, who knows how many more soldiers Huaxia would have lost! And now that the King-Level Monster, the Sky-Screaming Beast, has been slain by you, the sea monsters should settle down for at least a year or two. All of this is thanks to Councilor Guan." Commander Li Dawei was in an exceptionally good mood. Although this Beast Tide had been massive and even a King-Level Monster had appeared, their losses did not even amount to a fraction of what they had suffered before.
Furthermore, the King-Level Monster that ruled this sea region had been killed, and so many Lord-Level Monsters had also died this time. The remaining Lord-Level Monsters would surely fight one another over territory. With that, the war base could relax for at least a year or two. Even if another King-Level Monster appeared, it probably would not dare invade so easily.
