110: Chapter 110 Does the Old Crocodile Have a Wife?
An Ke felt it was a bit of a pity that he couldn't see the exploration progress of the other National Destiny Bearers.
In that case, he would always feel uncertain.
Soon, led by Old Crocodile, An Ke, Little Scar, and the others arrived at the lakeside.
This lake wasn't larger than the previous one, and it was surrounded by woods.
Leaves fell into the lake like small boats.
Old Crocodile said to An Ke and the others, "You guys wait here for me for a moment."
An Ke didn't ask much and nodded, then watched as Old Crocodile approached the water's edge.
Then, it swung its tail to slap the surface of the lake.
Under the slapping of its thick tail, the lake water splashed everywhere, making loud "smack smack smack" sounds.
Whether it was An Ke, Little Scar, or the viewers in the live broadcast room.
Everyone was incredibly curious, not understanding what Old Crocodile was doing.
Soon, everyone knew the answer.
They heard Old Crocodile growling lowly at the lake surface, seemingly summoning something.
In An Ke's ears, he heard Old Crocodile shouting at the lake:
"dear one, I'm back!"
"Come out quickly!"
An Ke froze on the spot. dear one?
Could it be calling its wife!?
Under An Ke's bewildered gaze, a smaller crocodile poked its head out from the lake after a short while.
It then paddled over to the shore.
Compared to Old Crocodile, this crocodile was smaller, but its body was still about 7 meters long.
With two behemoths in the same frame, the scene was truly quite shocking.
Little Scar and the others, whose nerves had rarely relaxed, tensed up once again.
Drawing their bows and aiming was done in one smooth motion.
At the same time, they shielded An Ke.
In the outside world, the viewers in the live broadcast room were also startled by the sudden appearance of another giant crocodile.
"Holy crap!? They encountered another giant crocodile!!"
"Could it be that Old Crocodile just discovered this crocodile and the low growl was a warning?"
"Are the two giant crocodiles about to fight now?"
In the broadcast, the newly appeared crocodile clearly didn't come with good intentions!
It was hissing directly at Old Crocodile, looking very angry.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Once two giant creatures started fighting, the scene would definitely be incredibly intense.
It might even affect An Ke and the others.
Furthermore, An Ke had finally managed to establish a relationship with Old Crocodile.
Having this giant crocodile escorting them on this exploration would make it much safer and more guaranteed.
No one wanted to see anything happen to Old Crocodile.
A crocodile that had lived for several hundred years could be considered a living fossil.
However, the viewers didn't know that the reason the new crocodile was angry was because Old Crocodile never came home.
The hissing at it was actually scolding it.
"You old thing, you actually know to come back?"
"So you still know you have a home? I thought you'd already forgotten about this home, lured away by some other young crocodile."
Old Crocodile was a bit embarrassed from being scolded. It looked at An Ke and then comforted her:
"dear one, it's my fault!"
"But please calm down for now, there are others present."
However, its wife had no intention of giving Old Crocodile any face.
"You actually know what shame is?"
"Every time you go out, it's for several months, and once even for several years."
"Do you know how This mother has lived during all this time?"
"..."
Old Crocodile's wife continued her output, tearing Old Crocodile to shreds with her words.
Standing to the side, An Ke felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.
This was a bit ridiculous!
Who would have thought he'd walk right into a couple's quarrel?
If people knew that Old Crocodile was currently being lectured by its wife, how shocked would they be?
Looking at Little Scar and the others who were still on guard, aiming their bows at Old Crocodile's wife.
An Ke patted Little Scar's shoulder and said, "Put them away."
"It's just a couple's quarrel; it has nothing to do with us."
Hearing this, the two monkeys, including Little Scar, looked at each other.
Soon, they were staring at each other in bewilderment.
A couple? Quarrel?
What the hell?
Was it not two crocodiles about to fight?
The viewers in the live broadcast room were equally stunned when they heard An Ke's words.
"Huh?"
"What did I just hear?"
"The two crocodiles are a couple!?"
"Well, this..."
"So the current situation is that Old Crocodile is being scolded by its wife?"
"The mighty eight-meter giant crocodile is henpecked?"
"Oh my god! My worldview is collapsing."
"..."
This development was far beyond everyone's expectations.
Old Crocodile didn't show any temper while being scolded, constantly offering apologetic smiles.
"dear one, stop scolding~"
"Let's hurry to the lake to catch some fish, I'll give you something delicious to eat later."
Old Crocodile tempted her.
Old Crocodile's wife, however, said crossly, "You still dare to order This mother around?"
"Besides, what's the point of eating fish every day?"
Saying that, Old Crocodile's wife looked toward An Ke and the others.
With a grin, she said, "Aren't there three monkeys right here?"
"Catching them to change our flavor would be quite nice~~"
Three monkeys?
An Ke was speechless. They were being treated as monkeys?
But it was normal when he thought about it; after all, crocodiles didn't know about the human species.
Being able to walk upright, they were naturally treated as monkeys.
However, now was not the time to think about these things.
An Ke's eyes narrowed slightly, and his expression became serious.
Because his Spider Sense was triggered.
This meant that Old Crocodile's wife had murderous intent toward him.
"Little Scar, draw your bow..."
An Ke ordered.
If Old Crocodile couldn't stop its wife from launching an attack, An Ke wouldn't show any mercy.
Seeing this, Old Crocodile broke into a cold sweat.
It quickly hurried in front of its wife, blocking her with its body, and explained:
"These are my friends."
"Wife, you can't hurt them."
"Friends?" Obviously, Old Crocodile's wife was very surprised.
"Oh! Wife, listen to me, let's go catch fish, and you'll understand everything in a bit."
Old Crocodile pleaded earnestly; it was truly afraid it couldn't talk its wife down and that she would hurt An Ke and the others.
In that case, its heart, which bore a sense of righteousness, would be filled with guilt.
"In other words, the delicacy you mentioned is fish?"
Old Crocodile's wife asked suspiciously.
Old Crocodile nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes! I guarantee you'll find it so delicious you won't want to leave, it's incredibly tasty."
"Oh? How delicious can it be?"
"I stay in this lake every day, how could I not know?"
"You old fellow, you really deserve a scolding."
Obviously, Old Crocodile's wife didn't believe it at all.
The so-called delicacy was just the fish she ate every day; who wouldn't be angry?
Old Crocodile immediately gritted its teeth and vowed, "dear one, believe me."
"The delicacy I'm talking about is definitely a hundred times... no! Ten thousand times more delicious than the fish you usually eat!"
Seeing that its wife still didn't believe it.
Old Crocodile became determined and vowed, "Wife, if you don't think it's delicious then."
"Then from now on, I will no longer travel around, and I will restrain all my wandering interests!"
Hearing this, Old Crocodile's wife finally reluctantly agreed.
"Fine!"
Either way, it wasn't a loss for Old Crocodile's wife.
She even hoped Old Crocodile was lying to her; that way, if Old Crocodile lost, he wouldn't be able to run around anymore.
"Hehe~~ My dear one is the best, let's go! We'll go catch fish together."
The two crocodiles entered the lake just like that.
Only then did An Ke's Spider Sense disappear.
Crisis averted!
In the outside world, the viewers in the live broadcast room were left stunned, completely unaware of what had actually happened.
"The couple went home?"
"To live a life of shameless bliss from now on?"
