Capítulo 1257: Chapter 1257: River God Above (Part 3)
Splash——
Lang Sha was knocked to the ground by a column of water, a mix of mud and water making him look utterly miserable.
The River God landed on the sand, one foot pressing down on Lang Sha’s chest, “You think you can kill ?”
“I might not be able to kill you, but soone will!”
The River God laughed up to the sky, proudly saying, “Hahaha, I am the River God, who could kill ? You humans? Daydreamin…”
The word ‘daydreaming’ wasn’t finished, as the River God’s laughter froze, and he collapsed face-first toward the ground.
Lang Sha saw the girl behind the River God, the sky cleared of clouds, revealing the stars and moon; moonlight cast a faint halo on her, her beautiful and cold face resembling a goddess descending from the heavens.
Lang Sha did not expect her to co back.
Or to subdue the River God…
“Miss, how… how did you subdue him?”
Chuzheng quickly hid the tranquilizer syringe behind her back, unexpectedly finding it effective against a ‘god’.
Chuzheng didn’t answer Lang Sha’s question, instead, changing the topic directly: “We’re even now.”
You save once, I save you once, and we’re square!
“…”
As the two spoke, the River God on the ground suddenly transford into a finger-thick loach.
Lang Sha’s pupils shrank: “He’s trying to escape!”
In an instant, Chuzheng’s Yin Xian shot out, but the loach leaped into the river with a ‘thump’ and vanished into the water, leaving Yin Xian to grab at thin air.
Chuzheng remained silent for a few seconds and then asked Lang Sha, “Is he that fast?” This is what it’s like when a loach becos powerful!
Lang Sha nodded, a serious expression on his face.
“His speed is especially fast, it should be his innate talent… Now that he’s escaped, if we et him again, it probably won’t end well.”
“Then just kill him!” Getting rid of evil for the public, I’m doing a good deed here!
Lang Sha shook his head, “He hides in the river, it’s impossible to find him, cough cough…”
Lang Sha coughed a few tis, “Miss, we should leave this place first, in case he circles back.”
“Wouldn’t that be better to kill him!”
“…”
Lang Sha realized that this girl’s behavior seed a bit off.
Facing the River God without a hint of fear, and all she talks about is killing.
And how did she make the River God faint just now? Although it wasn’t for long, it was surprising.
She looked like… just an ordinary person.
Evidently, Chuzheng was not going to answer these questions.
She stood by the riverbank, gazing toward the mist-covered river, River God… darn loach! Just you wait!
–
Chuzheng and Lang Sha relocated and started a fire in the woods.
Lang Sha clutched his bleeding back of the head, he didn’t feel when he was hit there, so why was it bleeding?
Chuzheng absent-mindedly poked at the fire with a stick, watching the flas dance.
Once Lang Sha had treated his wound, Chuzheng asked, “What’s the story behind that loach?”
“I don’t know either,” Lang Sha responded, “I heard there was a River God near Hanjiang City, so I ca to take a look. I found out that the River God wants a girl every year, which seed off, so I went to check it out.”
This world has Immortals, they are the top of the food chain and generally don’t appear, leaving the handling of these evil demons to cultivators in the world.
Like Lang Sha…
However, there are fewer and fewer cultivators, and the gods that exist seem to be diminishing as well.
Gods like the Land God and Mountain God, who need to guard the mortal realm, are now rare to find.
This is not sothing ford in a short ti, but sothing that has slowly disappeared over ti.
So when people realized sothing was wrong, it was already like this, no one knew what happened.
“But one thing is strange…” Lang Sha frowned, “He has a divine seal.”
Chuzheng pressed the stick into the ground, “How can you tell?”
Lang Sha said, “I sensed it, the power of the divine seal…”
Lang Sha had trained with his master as a child and they once encountered a Mountain God. His master said that the powers of the divine seal vary, but also have similarities.
Earlier, when he fought against the River God, he felt the power of the divine seal.
“According to what you said, since no one is overseeing the River God now, it’s only fair he does so evil, right?”
Given the background setting where all sorts of Immortals are vanishing, if the River God as an existing god doesn’t cause so trouble, he might just disappear one day.
Lang Sha shook his head, “He’s not a True God.”
“Why not?”
“My master said that River Gods usually are dragons or auspicious creatures like Jin Li with fortuitous encounters that can ascend to True God. That one was originally a loach, so he can’t possibly beco a True God.”
Chuzheng said nonchalantly, “That’s just the usual case, there are exceptions. Moreover, you can’t discriminate against species, why can’t a loach beco a True God?”
Maybe it’s a hardworking loach!
Lang Sha: “…”
Whose side are you on?!
Lang Sha took a deep breath, “Even if he was once a True God, since he’s doing evil now, he can’t be let to continue.”
Lang Sha certainly didn’t think that River God was a True God.
But since the girl put it that way, he wouldn’t argue, he’d rather go along.
Chuzheng was just talking out of the blue; it hardly mattered to her if he was a True God or not.
She was more curious about the sudden palace inside her body.
Chuzheng glanced at Lang Sha, asking, “When you were underwater, did you see that underwater palace?”
Lang Sha nodded, “Mm-hmm.”
“Do you recognize that palace?”
“It’s probably the River God’s residence,” Lang Sha replied.
“Can it shrink and move? Can it inexplicably enter a person’s body?”
Lang Sha pondered, “It shouldn’t, but if that palace is a Magic Artifact, then it might. However, turning an entire palace into a Magic Artifact isn’t sothing ordinary power can accomplish, so it’s unlikely… Miss, you better not get any ideas about that residence, you won’t be able to take it.”
Lang Sha thought Chuzheng saw the palace’s magnificence underwater and got tempted, imdiately advising her.
“…”
But now that palace is inside my body!!
I am quite anxious.
Chuzheng’s heart was a ss, but her expression was calm, casually poking the fire with a stick, causing sparkles to shoot up, falling back into her icy eyes.
Lang Sha advised Chuzheng a bit, then sat down to circulate his energy for healing.
Chuzheng got up and left, and only when Lang Sha was out of sight did she begin to fuss.
She silently recited all sorts of “Open Sesa” type mantras, trying to bring that palace out.
However, the palace remained unresponsive, playing dead inside her body.
Chuzheng couldn’t see the palace but could vaguely sense it there, inside her.
Chuzheng shook her arms and legs, but the palace wouldn’t co out.
Chuzheng plopped down on a rock nearby, hands on her knees, exuding a bold and powerful aura in her posture.
I’m so annoyed.
Who authorized you to stay inside my body?!
This is a rogue’s forced occupation!!
Even a palace has lost its sha?
