Wang Tiezhu was startled, and then looked towards the place where the attack was launched. He saw a humanoid creature gradually emerging from the dim river water and came within his observation range.
This humanoid creature looks extremely weird, with its skin showing a smooth green color and covered with a layer of tiny scales.
If you look closely, there are fins on his joints, his feet are like duck webs, and his hands are sharp claws. His head looks like a rounded fish face, and a big mouth takes up half of the face, and it is full of sharp things.
Fangs.
When the river demon saw Wang Tiezhu, a humane smile appeared on his face. Then he waved his sharp claws and shot several water arrows that were extremely difficult to detect with the naked eye at Wang Tiezhu.
"Is this what just attacked me?"
Wang Tiezhu swung his sword to scatter the water arrows. Feeling the powerful force coming from the sword, he felt horrified in his heart.
When the river demon saw that his attack was blocked, he was also puzzled. He tilted his head and looked at Wang Tiezhu, but did not take any more shots.
Looking at that weird fish face, Wang Tiezhu felt a little frightened as he stared at it.
At this time, Golden Backbone swam to his side again. Wang Tiezhu couldn't help but feel a little irritated, so he cut it in half with a sword.
Unexpectedly, this move angered the river demon. It opened its mouth and let out a sharp howl, waving its sharp claws and rushing towards Wang Tiezhu.
Seeing the reaction of the river demon, Wang Tiezhu felt confused.
"What's wrong? Is this fish your lover?"
Doubts remain doubts, but the spirit sword in his hand was swung out without any hesitation.
"clang!"
The sharp claws of the river demon collided with Wang Tiezhu's green dragon soul-devouring sword, and there was a sound of metal and stone clashing.
With a strong swing of the long sword in his hand, Wang Tiezhu looked solemn and drove the river demon away. This river demon was so powerful that his body could directly resist his own spiritual sword. It was really difficult to deal with!
The river demon that was knocked away didn't stop for a moment and attacked again. Wang Tiezhu faced it with his spiritual sword in hand and fought with it.
After a few rounds, the linen clothes that Wang Tiezhu had just changed into became extremely tattered. Under the torn clothes was the skin with red marks, which was exactly where the river demon's claws had caught him.
Compared to Wang Tiezhu, the situation of the river demon is worse.
The scales on its body were unable to withstand the Green Dragon Spirit-Eating Sword in Wang Tiezhu's hand.
Under Wang Tiezhu's repeated attacks, several sword marks appeared on his body, and scarlet blood continued to seep from these scars into the surrounding river water.
However, even so, there was no trace of timidity in the river demon's eyes. His fighting spirit was high, and he roared and rushed towards Wang Tiezhu again.
Because it can feel that Wang Tiezhu's aura is gradually weakening.
As long as you persist, you will eventually win.
Seeing the brave river demon who was not afraid of death, Wang Tiezhu felt bitter in his heart.
Although the Wolong Hidden Breathing Technique allows one to stay in the water for a long time, it has already reached its limit.
Coupled with the continuous fierce fighting, the air in his body has been almost consumed. If his body had not been strengthened by the three Yang body training technique, he would have turned into a water ghost by now.
"We have to solve it as soon as possible! Otherwise I will become Pike!"
Wang Tiezhu glanced at the river demon charging towards him. He spotted a flaw and stabbed out the spirit sword in his hand like lightning and flint, hitting the river demon right in the chest.
He was overjoyed and was about to draw his sword and attack again when a strange feeling came to him from the spiritual sword in his hand.
Feeling this strange yet familiar feeling, Wang Tiezhu was surprised and happy.
"Spiritual power?!"
He suddenly thought of why his spiritual sword was called the Blue Dragon Spirit-Eating Sword.
The main material of the sword body, the green dragon's horn, is used for the soul-eating effect. However, when I was in Xuanxuan Continent, my spiritual power was deep and I didn't need it to eat souls and deny myself.
But it's different now. He has lost all his spiritual power. This weak spiritual power is like a life-saving straw for him!
The river demon also felt that his power was being swallowed by the sword, roared angrily, broke away, and stared at Wang Tiezhu with a pair of fish eyes like yellow light bulbs.
With the spiritual power entering his body, Wang Tiezhu's aura became high again. He looked at the cautious river demon and smiled slightly.
"You evil beast, you met me, the hero Wang, today. You are in bad luck! Come and die with me!"
With an angry shout, the spiritual sword in Wang Tiezhu's hand turned into a ray of blue light and shot out.
Before the river demon could react, he was directly penetrated through his body. He looked at the big hole in his chest in disbelief and slowly fell to the bottom of the river.
Until its death, it could not figure out why this mortal suddenly used the sword technique...
Watching the river demon slaying him, Wang Tiezhu summoned the Qingjiao Soul-Eating Sword. Seeing its blade glowing with a faint green light, he smiled with satisfaction and swam towards the river demon's body.
The sword strike just now exhausted all the spiritual energy he had absorbed. In order to absorb the spiritual energy again, he inserted the spiritual sword into the body of the river demon, but there was no familiar feeling.
"Does it have to be useful when the other person is alive?"
Wang Tiezhu was confused, so he simply put the spirit sword behind his back and dragged the body of the river demon towards the river.
The sky had already brightened, and everyone was standing on the bank, looking anxiously at the river.
"Village Chief, it's been an hour, and the young hero hasn't come up yet, could it be..."
"Shut up! Stop saying those depressing words!"
Liu De cursed the man, then frowned and looked towards the river.
In fact, he also felt that Wang Tiezhu might be in danger.
After all, how can anyone hold their breath for an hour?
But he hadn't seen any movement on the river for a long time, which made him still have some hope in his heart.
"If something happens, at least there will be blood coming out..."
While he was thinking, he heard Liu Laosan next to him shouting loudly: "Shaoxia Wang! It's Shaoxia Wang who's coming up!"
After hearing the words, everyone immediately looked towards the shore, only to see Wang Tiezhu, who was all wet, climbing up from the shore, seeming to be dragging something in his hand.
They rushed over and pulled Wang Tiezhu up.
"Everyone, luckily you have fulfilled your mission!"
Wang Tiezhu cupped his fists and said to everyone, then pointed to the body of the river demon on the ground, "This is the culprit who hurt Liu Laosi."
"Oh my goodness! This monster looks really scary!"
"Is this a fish or a human?"
"Half fish and half human, maybe a mermaid?"
"Why isn't it a fish-man?"
…
While everyone was discussing around the river demon, the village chief led Liu Laosan and Haier to Wang Tiezhu.
With a "pop", Hai'er knelt down directly in front of him.
"Benefactor, thank you for avenging my father! Your great kindness will never be forgotten by our family!"
"Silly boy, get up quickly!"
Wang Tiezhu quickly pulled Hai'er up, looked at him with tears on his face, and said: "When the road is rough, drawing a sword to help is what a chivalrous person does. It's a trivial matter, why bother!"
"Even so, you are still the benefactor of our family!"
Liu Laosan took Haier and bowed to Wang Tiezhu again.
