Chapter 247: Chapter 195: Ashore_3 Chapter 247: Chapter 195: Ashore_3 Whoosh!
She stepped ashore from the water, her gaze sweeping across the surroundings.
She saw that on the distant shores of this expansive lake, disciples from various sects still lingered, with some entering the water from time to time and others emerging.
Just as Meng Danyun was retracting her gaze and preparing to leave, suddenly a frantic voice came from afar.
“Meng Successor!”
Meng Danyun paused slightly and turned her head to see Xue Huaiyi rushing hurriedly from a distant shore.
He bowed to Meng Danyun and urgently said, “Reporting to Meng Successor, a Fifth Rank demon has appeared and is wreaking havoc in Jingyu County.
We are powerless to stop it.
I hope Meng Successor can exterminate the demon and rescue the county from this calamity.”
Half of Jingyu County is the base of the Xue Family.
The usual Fourth Rank demons causing trouble were nothing significant; even in great numbers, they could be dealt with one by one.
However, a Fifth Rank demon was different.
Only those in the Five Viscera Realm could suppress such beings.
Apart from that, unless suppressed by a ‘Military Formation,’ the tactic of overwhelming numbers was not very effective and couldn’t drive it away.
Xue Huaiyi had initially been leading people to explore the lake’s bottom sediment.
He did not expect news of a Fifth Rank demon to e from inside the county.
Naturally, he was extremely anxious.
Although he immediately sent someone to report to City Lord Xue Huaikong, Xue Huaikong was not around the Jingyu County area, and it would take some time to get there from where he was.
The nearest was to seek assistance from Meng Danyun, the real successor.
But Meng Danyun was a true successor of the Seven Profound Sect, not a person from Yu City.
If she was unwilling to intervene, there was nothing he could do.
Therefore, he now bowed his head, his words filled with pleading.
“A Fifth Rank demon?”
Meng Danyun thought briefly and was about to ask for the exact location.
Although she was eager to return to Yu City to meditate in seclusion and prehend Artistic Conception, if a Fifth Rank demon was rampaging nearby, it indeed wouldn’t be right to ignore it.
But just as she was about to speak, another voice took over the conversation.
“Where is it?”
Chen Mu’s figure appeared behind her, asking Xue Huaiyi.
Xue Huaiyi hurriedly replied, “Just east of the County Government…”
He had also been looking for Chen Mu earlier but hadn’t found him, guessing he might have gone to a nearby village to help with disaster relief.
He hadn’t asked much because the rampaging creature was a Fifth Rank demon, and finding Chen Mu probably still meant requesting Meng Danyun’s intervention.
“Good, I understand now.”
Chen Mu nodded slightly, then looked at Meng Danyun and said, “Elder Sister Meng, don’t exhaust yourself further, I will handle this.
It is indeed within my duties anyway, and since the matter is urgent, I shall take my leave first.”
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure swiftly receded into the distance.
This scene stunned Xue Huaiyi; as he came to his senses, he hurriedly shouted after Chen Mu’s departing figure, “Lord Chen, that is a Fifth Rank Water Demon ‘Feng Yi’, no ordinary creature, with extraordinary strength!”
Seeing that Chen Mu appeared not to have heard, his figure already vanishing in the distance, and Meng Danyun seemingly also not inclined to intervene further, Xue Huaiyi instantly became very anxious, turning his head back towards Meng Danyun.
Meng Danyun was about to depart, noticing Xue Huaiyi’s expression.
A trace of amusement flickered in her eyes as she said, “Why such panic?
If even Junior Brother Chen can’t handle it, then unless Inspector Yan es over, there are hardly a few who can manage it, besides, the Water Demon ‘Feng Yi’ isn’t that strong.”
At her words, Xue Huaiyi was taken aback, momentarily not understanding Meng Danyun’s meaning.
Meng Danyun shook her head slightly, “Junior Brother Chen stepped into the Five Viscera, mastered the Three Phases of wind, thunder, and fire in Major Achievement, even Gu Hong of the Heavenly Sword Sect was defeated by his single strike, I am far from his match, you underestimate his strength too much.”
Having said that,
Meng Danyun didn’t say more, she lightly tapped her foot on the riverbank, and her entire figure drifted away.
Leaving Xue Huaiyi alone, utterly stunned, frozen in place.
Nearby on the shore, just as Xue Lin had poked his head out of the water, gasping intensely a couple of times, about to e over, he now exhibited a bewildered expression, feeling as if his ears had suddenly been filled with a lot of mud water.
Just now,
What did Meng Danyun say?
