Witnessing the scene, Atugu laughed and said, "Old Wei, in ancient tis there was Jiang Taigong fishing with a straight hook, today we have Old Wei fishing with a straight hook."
Old Wei cracked a slight smile, flicked his wrist, and with a swoosh, a plump Snow Dragon Fish was hauled up!
"Atugu, make a fire, even an ordinary Snow Dragon Fish is highly nourishing."
Atugu’s mouth gaped open as he dumbly stared at Old Wei without a word. He thought Old Wei was just putting on an act, but to his surprise, Old Wei was indeed aweso. A straight hook really could catch fish!
...
When Qin Yu arrived at Snow Dragon Pool, several groups were already waiting there, and he saw many familiar faces.
Upon seeing Qin Yu, with a rustle, the seated masters all got to their feet, regarding Qin Yu with wary eyes, since several among them had shown hostility to Qin Yu before.
Qin Yu ignored these competitors. He slled a delicious aroma and followed it to its source, where he saw the campfire rack set up by Atugu.
"Is this Snow Dragon Fish? It slls so good." Qin Yu comfortably sat down beside the campfire rack.
A twitch played at the corner of Atugu’s mouth. Damn it, this kid really didn’t see himself as an outsider, did he? But since Atugu couldn’t gauge the depths of Qin Yu, he didn’t flare up.
"Slls good, tastes even better. Here, have one. In fact, I ca to the Snow Dragon Sanctuary just for these culinary delights. Snow Dragons and the like, I gave up on those aspirations long ago."
Atugu generously handed a roasted Snow Dragon Fish to Qin Yu.
Qin Yu took the Snow Dragon Fish, noting it was sared with various barbeque seasonings. He grinned. This simpleton sure knew how to enjoy his food.
"Thank you." Qin Yu said coolly, lifting his hand to take the Snow Dragon Fish and, with a hearty bite, tore off a large chunk.
Atugu’s grilling skills were ordinary, but since the Snow Dragon Fish was so exquisitely flavorful, Qin Yu ate with relish.
Qin Yu seed relaxed, but in fact, as he ate, he used his peripheral vision to look around. He was ready to respond should these people make any rash moves.
Fortunately, everyone remained calm and didn’t do anything excessive.
Qin Yu’s attention turned to Old Wei, who was fishing.
With a swoosh, Old Wei flicked his fishing rod, and another plump Snow Dragon was hooked.
"Fishing skills befitting an elder!" Qin Yu exclaid with admiration.
"Hahaha, naturally, Old Wei is the Heavenly Fisher of our great grasslands! He’s won the national fishing championship several tis." Atugu boasted unreservedly.
Heavenly Fisher? Qin Yu gently shook his head. In his eyes, Atugu, this simpleton, didn’t understand fishing at all. There were indeed a few Heavenly Fishers in the world, and Qin Yu knew them.
Among the Heavenly Fishers Qin Yu knew, Old Wei was not included.
Qin Yu refrained from calling out Atugu’s bluff, simply smiling as he watched the fish hook, through which he could surmise Old Wei’s true level.
After watching Atugu remove the fish from the hook, Qin Yu’s pupils contracted slightly!
Fishing with a straight hook? Was this Old Wei truly a Heavenly Fisher?
"Old Wei, you must have a spare fishing rod, right? I’m quite interested in fishing," Qin Yu said, his heart set on contending with Old Wei.
"Kid, fishing isn’t as simple as killing soone or practicing a skill. It involves many complexities, you should probably give up! Don’t embarrass yourself in front of Old Wei." Atugu lightly shook his head.
Qin Yu paid no attention to Atugu, fixing Old Wei with an intense gaze.
