She instructed the Little Fox to check on Mu Qiancheng’s condition while charging towards the Water Monster with a dagger in hand. Just as the Water Monster was preparing to engage her, she suddenly changed direction and headed toward the shore.
Having been in the water for so long without defeating the Water Monster, and instead getting Mu Qiancheng injured, Jiang Xue suddenly felt that this wouldn’t work. She needed to lure the Water Monster onto land.
Once on land, she wouldn’t fear the Water Monster. Not only could she make her move, but the Little Fox could also assist.
Seeing Jiang Xue seemingly fleeing and swimming toward the shore, the Water Monster was stunned for a mont and didn’t react. anwhile, Mu Qiancheng was still not up, causing Jiang Xue much worry.
As she swam towards the shore, she provocatively glanced at the Water Monster. However, the Water Monster didn’t fall for it at all and remained still.
After a while, Mu Qiancheng slowly surfaced. The earlier strike from the Water Monster had severely injured him. As he erged, he saw Jiang Xue nearly reaching the shore, but he did not feel the slightest joy.
As long as Jiang Xue was safe!
On the shore, a little boy saw Jiang Xue swimming to the shore, swiftly put away his slingshot, and then went to the lake’s edge, ready to extend a hand to pull Jiang Xue up.
"Sister, I’ll pull you up!" The little boy extended his small hand, smiling sweetly at Jiang Xue.
"Okay!" Jiang Xue nodded, glancing at the slingshot in the little boy’s hand, forming an idea.
Jiang Xue climbed onto the shore. The Water Monster was a bit dumbfounded, originally thinking Jiang Xue was deceiving it; unexpectedly, she truly reached the shore. Could she really abandon the human in the water?
The Water Monster was perplexed but saw Jiang Xue already on shore and didn’t pursue her. This lake was its domain, and besides, there was still a human in the water. It didn’t believe Jiang Xue would truly leave the other alone.
After Jiang Xue reached the shore and saw Mu Qiancheng surface, she slightly relaxed, then shouted to him, "Qiancheng, don’t confront the Water Monster directly. Swim towards the shore, and I’ll use the slingshot to deal with it!"
While saying this, Jiang Xue raised the slingshot in her hand. She had taken it from the little boy to confront the Water Monster.
Mu Qiancheng had absolute trust in Jiang Xue, and upon hearing her words, he indeed swam towards the shore. However, since Jiang Xue was already on shore, the Water Monster naturally didn’t want Mu Qiancheng to reach it as well.
These two hurt it and just want to escape; that’s impossible.
Therefore, when it noticed Mu Qiancheng’s intention, it wanted to move forward to stop him. At that mont, Jiang Xue raised the slingshot, placed a stone, and aid at the Water Monster, saying to the little boy, "Could you help find more stones?"
"Sure, Sister!" the little boy happily agreed, then went towards a small hill where there were many small stones.
Once the little boy left, Jiang Xue pulled back the slingshot and launched a stone. The Water Monster was chasing Mu Qiancheng but suddenly sensed a whistling wind above. It slightly looked up to see a stone heading for its forehead, startled and stopped its pursuit, retreating backward.
Jiang Xue’s strength far exceeded that of the little boy, and she had infused so Spiritual Power into the stone, enhancing its force tenfold. Even though it was just a tiny stone, its intensity was formidable.
The first stone missed because the Water Monster dodged, but Jiang Xue imdiately shot a second one. This ti, the Water Monster wasn’t so lucky; although it didn’t hit the eye, it struck right on the forehead, montarily stunning it.
