It couldn’t deal with the human in its belly for the ti being, but that didn’t stop it from attacking Jiang Xue.
So, the water monster, full of rage, couldn’t care less anymore. Without worrying about being seen, it moved its body and charged straight at Jiang Xue.
In its eyes, Jiang Xue was small and frail; such a charge would hurt her if not kill her.
Sensing the water monster’s murderous intent, Jiang Xue imdiately beca alert. She was ready to counter, but unexpectedly, the water monster changed its tactics and charged directly at her.
As it charged, it let out a roar. Hearing the roar, Jiang Xue was startled at first and then ca to her senses.
She thought it was a challenge from the water monster, not realizing it was also in pain. Mu Qiancheng was still causing havoc in its belly; unable to deal with Mu Qiancheng, it could only vent its anger on Jiang Xue.
"Woman, dodge quickly, this monster is furious." Feeling the water monster’s murderous intent, the little fox imdiately warned, fearing Jiang Xue might react poorly and get hurt.
Jiang Xue didn’t need the little fox’s reminder. She sensed it imdiately and planned to dodge, but she never expected the water monster to be so fast. In the blink of an eye, it was right in front of her, crashing into her.
Watching the water monster crash toward her, Jiang Xue was extrely anxious. She wanted to sidestep, but it was as if her body was immobilized; she couldn’t move at all.
Realizing this, Jiang Xue was shocked and said to the little fox, "Little fox, I can’t move. What’s going on?"
"What?" The little fox was also shocked. How could Jiang Xue not be able to move? Could it be that the water monster has beco intelligent and knows magic?
But on second thought, the little fox found it impossible. It didn’t sense the water monster had beco intelligent, and if it had, how could it have fought Jiang Xue for so long before? As long as it used magic, like now, everything would have been resolved.
But if it wasn’t magic, then what was preventing Jiang Xue from moving?
The little fox pondered while planning to save Jiang Xue. But before it could act, Jiang Xue was already knocked away by the water monster, leaping out of the water.
Of course, Jiang Xue managed to leap out of the water not just due to the water monster but also her own actions. Earlier, when she couldn’t move, she had conceived this plan—to use the water monster’s impact to propel herself upward and mitigate the collision’s damage.
Fortunately, Jiang Xue’s spiritual power protected her. Otherwise, even if she survived the collision, she would have been critically injured. As it was, though she used spiritual power, she still sustained so injuries, but they weren’t severe.
The crowd watching the lake’s activity was suddenly taken aback when they saw a figure fly out. They thought Jiang Xue and Mu Qiancheng were long dead, with even their bodies irretrievable, but unexpectedly, Jiang Xue managed to fly out alive.
"Sister!"
"Xue’er!"
Shangguan Wenbin and several elders also saw Jiang Xue erge from the water and shouted. The waves were too loud for Jiang Xue to hear the voices from the shore. After being knocked by the water monster, she again fell into the water.
The water monster seed to know where Jiang Xue would land; before she fell, it had already glided to where she was supposed to hit the water.
Seeing the seemingly intelligent water monster, the little fox’s face was full of seriousness. It warned Jiang Xue, "Woman, that monster is waiting for you at the bottom of the water. Be very careful."
