As far as she knew, when had Xu Fang ever suffered such a miserable fate? He'd almost been devoured by wolves, torn to pieces by a giant lizard-headed monster, and even nearly skinned alive by mountain people…
You were already a high-level mage back then, and a bunch of mountain bandits at the Warrior level went crazy and tried to skin you alive!
“You’re judging a gentleman by the standards of a petty person,” Xu Fang said.
Lü Yi leaned back dramatically: "A gentleman? Ha, don't make this old woman laugh her dentures out!"
Chen Ying watched the old man and the young man bickering in the living room with amusement, and carried the plate to the dining room: "Councilor Xu, you haven't eaten yet, have you? Let's eat together."
"Don't call me Councilor Xu, just call me by my name," Xu Fang said.
Lu Yi immediately became wary: "What are you trying to do? Let me tell you, my granddaughter would never be a mistress!"
"Grandma!" Chen Ying called out, embarrassed and annoyed.
Lü Yi ignored her and looked at Xu Fang suspiciously: "Get to the point. Do you need my help to hunt down that monarch? With my current magic, I can only severely injure it at most..."
"No."
"Is that helping you raise dragons? I have no experience with that."
"Not at all."
"You wouldn't really be after Chenying, would you? What about the Jiang family girl?"
Lu Yi frowned and pondered, feeling that if Commander Jiang got angry, his old bones really wouldn't be able to withstand it.
"Thinking too much."
Xu Fang casually poured himself a cup of tea and took a sip: "I'm planning to go to Qiandao Lake."
Lu Yi paused, her hand holding the cup still, her face expressionless: "What are you trying to say?"
"It's nothing." Xu Fang waved his hand. "I didn't think you were being too petty, you old lady. If I don't talk to you now, you might start overthinking things later."
Lü Yi: "..."
She and Jiang Xia were indeed husband and wife in their early years, but they parted ways long ago and no longer have any contact with each other.
Even Chen Ying, who has grown up, has only met Jiang Xia once, and that was because Jiang Xia came to make an appearance at a major meeting of the Zhao family.
Jiang Xia's second wife was from the Lu family—the same Lu family that Mo Fan repeatedly humiliated from beginning to end.
Behind the Beiyushan trial is actually Jiang Xia, who, although retired, still plays the role of a behind-the-scenes empress.
In some people's words, Jiang Xia would never relinquish her power unless she was in her coffin!
Chapter 467 Sleep your ass, get up and party!
Xu Fang really didn't have any bad intentions this time.
He is now a military general and a city councilor.
Although she can't compare to veteran councilors like Jiang Xia in terms of seniority, Jiang Xia can't compete with Xu Fang in terms of background or contributions.
He had no reason to curry favor with Jiang Xia.
I came to see Lü Yi this time purely as a polite way of letting her know and to have dinner with her.
"Alright, I won't stay any longer if there's nothing else. I won't eat here... I'll pack two portions, Ah Xu hasn't eaten yet," Xu Fang said.
"cheeky!"
"A pot of Tuolong wine, a specialty of Huajun Shou."
"Chenying, what are you standing there for? Pack it up!"
"cheeky."
······
That evening, Xu Fang set off for Qiandao Lake.
On the east side of Qiandao Lake, there is a semi-military post station, which is about the size of a small town.
There are no ordinary residents here; most of them are patrolling military mages stationed in this area to ensure the safety of the western side of the city.
The military mages consist of only about four squads, mainly responsible for reconnaissance, and their combat strength is not very strong.
Then there are the hunters; Qiandao Lake has always been considered a great place to hide treasures.
There is a simple hunter's hall in Minghu Inn, which can provide hunters with the latest bounty information.
For many hunters, information is often more important than skill.
Here, Xu Fang also obtained information about the Salamander.
These salamanders are actually creatures from the Pacific Ocean called "Luoli Yao," which entered the freshwater area of Qiandao Lake via underground rivers.
They merged with the salamanders of Thousand Island Lake, and thus the Salamander Demon was created.
The Snail Demon reproduces quickly but grows very slowly, while the Salamander Beast has poor reproductive ability but grows extremely fast.
Two kinds of demons combined to create the Salamander, a species defying the heavens.
A newborn salamander can grow into an adult salamander in just one season!
This is so unscientific... Compared to this, the bioengineering technology of my previous life is incredibly outdated!
Fortunately, according to Xu Fang's observation, just as Newton's coffin lid can still be closed tightly in this world, this world still adheres to reproductive isolation.
The Snail Demon and the Salamander Beast are ultimately two different species.
Like those hybrid dragon beasts, they can grow normally but have no reproductive ability.
In other words, there are two special male and female creatures in this Thousand Island Lake, who are frantically producing salamander eggs like a factory.
As long as Xu Fang finds and kills these two as soon as possible, he can stop the endless reproduction of the salamanders.
Then, you can enjoy the rest of the salamander in peace...
"Insect King, get to work!"
Xu Fang directly opened the Poisonous Insect Space and released the Insect King.
"hiss!!!"
After holding back for a while, the Insect King finally appeared and struck a cool pose, but unfortunately, the SpongeBob SquarePants-like color scheme made the scene look somewhat comical.
“There’s a shameless pair of demons on these islands who keep having babies. Find them and send me a message,” Xu Fang said.
The Insect King's face immediately fell, revealing the little insect's displeasure.
He's the President now, after all! The President!
It's one thing to not bring it when playing peak matches, as it's so humble and only wants to have a good fight to stretch its muscles. I never expected Xu Fang to use it as a tool for finding things.
"Hurry up, be quick, bring the Dust Storm Demon Grasshopper and the Azure Poison Locust along," Xu Fang urged.
That look is exactly like a heartless boss urging someone to come to work.
Frustrated, the corporate slave insect king summoned his minions, and soon swarms of poisonous insects flew out.
Xu Fang had no idea how far his poisonous insects had multiplied.
Originally, their own poison-type space was small, and their reproduction followed the logistic curve, always kept within a certain range.
However, since the poison type also advanced to the super-tier, the space has become so vast that it cannot be calculated.
The venomous insects broke through the "S-curve" limitation and sped off like mad donkeys.
"Just to be on the safe side... use the replication method!" Xu Fang frantically doubled the size of the poisonous insect before nodding in satisfaction.
The Insect King led his poisonous insects to find the Great Salamander Demon, and the sight of a swarm of insects flying up was truly spectacular.
It's hard to say whether there are more salamanders or poisonous insects at this moment.
—Of course, these are not issues that Xu Fang should be considering right now.
He was all smiles, rubbing his hands together eagerly: "My precious salamanders, your Grandpa Xu Fang is here!"
Thousand Island Lake has a complex terrain, but it was like a skinned lamb in front of Xu Fang's sound magic.
Soon, he arrived at a valley lake island. The island surrounded the lake in about 350 degrees, and there were dozens of salamanders lazily sunbathing on the shore.
These creatures look like large snails, but their bodies underneath are those of lizards—soft, wriggling, and with tentacles…
"Sleep you numb wake up hi!"
A dark green light flashed in Xu Fang's eyes: "Vine - Growth!"
Rumble rumble rumble...
The ground began to tremble slightly, then it was torn open, and vines emerged in a twisted and eerie manner.
So fast was it that the nearest salamander didn't even have time to react before it was tightly entangled, the vines deeply embedded in its body.
The salamander hurriedly shrank back into its shell, taking the vines with it.
It was impossible to see what was happening inside the shell; all that could be seen was the constant shaking and trembling.
The exposed vines swelled and bulged, as if someone were using a straw to draw some kind of liquid from them.
Finally, the giant shell stopped shaking, and a small trickle of black liquid flowed out from inside.
A salamander of warrior caliber was completely drained by a low-level spell!
"Again!" Xu Fang commanded.
The vines excitedly pounced on the other salamanders, but these creatures, having just witnessed the tragic fate of their companions, didn't even put up a fight and promptly retreated into their hard shells.
Although the vines frantically tried to squeeze into the crevices, the salamander's shell was exceptionally strong and could not be penetrated.
They frantically coiled and thrashed around the perimeter, trying to force the salamander out, but the salamander remained steadfast inside its shell, unmoved.
"grass!"
Xu Fang cursed.
These salamanders are truly despicable. Wouldn't it have been better if they had just obediently let the vines drain them dry? At least they would have kept a complete corpse.
They must stubbornly resist to the death!
"Pale and Desolate, Frosty Wind!"
After a gust of gray, cold wind swept through, the salamander's shell became brittle and was smashed apart one by one by the vines, which eagerly burrowed inside!
