Chapter 143 - 143: You Cannot Choose.

Robert's forehead was filled with cold sweat after seeing the question marks. This only happens when the person has three realms higher than himself.

That means….

Does this little Juvenile crocodile have higher cultivation than him? 

If that's the case then wouldn't this guy be the Marshal Crocodile? After all, he said that he is in charge of giving rewards….

Thus it's highly possible that this guy is the Marshal Crocodile but he is not 100% sure. It's possible that this little- No, the big guy is the relative of Marshal Crocodile.

Either way, this person is not something that he can offend just based on his cultivation base. Thus Robert decided to be polite with him and try to extract some information from his mouth.

Thinking of this he looked at the Marshal Crocodile with a relaxed expression. But he almost fainted after looking ahead.

He saw that the Bird Emperor was sitting on the back of the crocodile with a domineering expression and his mouth was running non-stop!

"Hey, I don't know why Marshal Crocodile made a Juvenile like you be in charge of this? Isn't he afraid that others would toh things from you? After all, you look pretty weak." The Bird Emperor shook his head while looking at the Juvenile crocodile below him.

It's over! Disaster comes from the mouth! Robert thought of himself as he looked at the Bird emperor. He may be weaker than Marshal Crocodile but he is stronger than you! 

The juvenile crocodile was bewildered for a second after seeing the bird riding on him but in the end, it did not say anything but moved forward.

He didn't even bother to comment on Bird Emperor's evaluation.

"Brother Robert! Come here, Sit with me this little guy can bear weight. We have traveled for so long so it's time to rest. Oh put the corpse on his head. I am sure that he can carry all of us alone right, Little guy?" The Bird Emperor pecked on the crocodile head and said proudly.

Robert's heart almost jumped out of his throat seeing this. Sure enough, ignorant is fearless! 

Why do I have a pig teammate like this? Not only is he digging his own grave but making one for me too?

Robert looked at the crocodile and saw that it had an unhappy expression on his face because of the Bird Emperor's pecking but in return, he did not say anything.

Robert breathed a sigh of relief after seeing this. At Least this guy is magnanimous and did not do anything to them.

Thinking of this he glared at the Bird Emperor and tried to warn him through his eyes.

Too bad his efforts were meaningless as Bird Emperor was immersed in his world and was working hard to dig his own grave.

"Not bad! You are tolerant and ignorant- Cough Cough I mean you have good potential! How about this! Why don't you work for me? I will offer you some salary and you will be my ground mount! As I don't like to walk, you can help me in this regard!"

"There are many benefits if you agree. I can give a name to you as I did for Amber and Blood Fiend. In this way, you can have an awesome and domineering name."

"Not only that, being my mount will bring you supreme honor! After all, I will become the king of the dream maple forest sooner or later."

"At that time you can brag to others about this. If you still think that this is not enough then how about this! Since you are giving me a ride on the ground then I would give you a ride to the sky! In this way, you can experience the feeling of flying…." The Bird emperor was constantly trying to poach this little guy but he didn't notice that the expression of two people besides him started to take a huge change.

The little crocodile had an unhappy face as it kept glaring at the Bird Emperor who was boasting on top of his head.

On the other hand, Robert was preparing the plan for a retreat. Although he is a helpful person he is reluctant to help Bird Emperor after hearing his nonsense.

He deserves it! 

But alas he is very reluctant to do this after all Bird emperor is one of his friends. He can't just abandon him, At Least he has to give him a warning.

But how could he do that? He can't just warn him in front of the little crocodile right? 

Thinking of this Robert decided to use his Innate Talent which he has always ignored. 

Soul Ignition! 

With this talent, he can say a few sentences to others privately. It's similar to Spiritual transmission in novels though he cannot use it for long as he would feel sleepy.

But transmitting one or two-sentence is possible.

"Hey! Brother emperor listened to me." 

Thinking of this Robert used his innate talent Soul Ignition to send a sentence to Bird Emperor secretly.

"Eh? What happened Brother Robert? Tell me what do you want?" The Bird Emperor looked back and asked Robert which almost made him faint in anger. I was talking to you secretly so why are you talking out loud? Are you trying to remind the Crocodile that we are talking about now?

Sure enough, after listening to the bird emperor the little crocodile looked at Robert with a puzzled expression. As he was walking with this stupid bird he never heard a word from this fatty.

So why is this stupid Bird saying this now?

"Me? No, I never called you." Seeing the expression of the little crocodile Robert cursed the Bird Emperor a thousand times in his head but he pretended to be confused.

"Is that so? Then I must be hearing too much. Then let's continue with our discussion little Croco…" The Bird Emperor tilted his head in confusion but he didn't think too much about this and started torturing the little crocodile under him.

The little Crocodile gritted his teeth after listening to his nonsense. If not for the fact that he did not like to bully the weak he would have already beaten the crap out of this guy.

So annoying! He wants me to be his mount? Where does he get his confidence from!

Wait for some time! I would take my revenge for this mental torturing. Aren't you here for the rewards? I will give you some 'useful' rewards.

The little Crocodile thought to himself maliciously as he increased his pace a bit. He couldn't wait to take revenge against this nasty bird.

Robert gave up on the Bird Emperor, If he tries to contact the guy a few more times then he is sure that he would be exposed.

Sigh, It was negligence on my part. I shouldn't have brought this guy with me. Amber or even Blood Fiend would have been a better replacement.

After all, they are a little sensible and are not arrogant like the Bird Emperor...

The Little Crocodile ignored Bird Emperor's ranting and moved toward the other part of the White Blazing Lake.

Soon he stopped as he looked at them and said, "We are here! Wait for me I will bring a reward in exchange for this corpse of Desolate beasts."

Saying this the little crocodile wanted to leave but Robert stopped him.

"Wait for a second! Are the rewards for the corpse of Desolate beasts fixed? Do we have the freedom to choose the reward from the existing option?" Robert asked the crucial question. If possible he wanted to look for the available rewards so that he can decide what is useful to him. From this, he can make a rough plan for the future.

"Choose?" The Little Crocodile revealed a strange smile after hearing his question as he glanced at Bird Emperor unintentionally and said, "No! You cannot choose the reward on your own. But don't worry I will give a reward that is most 'suitable' for you hehe.."

Saying this the little Crocodile moved toward the lake and submerged in it.

Robert's heart sank after hearing the words of Little crocodile and after seeing his strange smile. This guy is going to retaliate now. 

Thinking of this Robert gritted his teeth and looked at Bird Emperor with an unkind expression and walked toward him to settle the account.

The Bird Emperor didn't seem to notice the danger as he said, "Brother Robert, That brat is acting arrogantly. After he comes back I will teach him a lesson and show him who is the boss. That should be enough right? Brother Robert….?" 

The Bird Emperor didn't receive any response from Robert so he looked at him and saw him coming toward him with a black face.

The Bird Emperor instinctively felt that something was wrong so he wanted to take a flight to guarantee his safety but too bad he was a step late as Robert caught his wings.

"Wait! Wait! Brother Robert If there are some problems then you can discuss them with me.. there is no need for this… wait! Ouch!! done hit my face!"

"It hurts!"

"Tell you to be arrogant! Because of you, every plan has been messed up.." Hearing Bird Emperor's scream Robert did not stop but intensified his efforts and started beating him vigorously.
