Yu Li had never expected that in just one month, Wang Mu would catch such a mythical fish.
At that mont, Wang Mu was oblivious to his surroundings, completely captivated by the fish.
Goodness, it really is a rmaid!
Wang Mu stared at the peculiar fish.
It looked very delicate, currently entangled in the fishing line. Its moist eyes exuded a pitiable charm as its enchanting body slowly twisted, stirring ripples on the water’s surface, almost irresistibly tempting one to jump down and kiss it.
Especially when it looked at him, its eyes seed to say, "Co down and play..."
Don’t even think about disturbing my Taoist Heart!
Wang Mu instantly used action points, entering a special state akin to a ruthless fishing robot in a ga, starting to struggle with the delicate Little Jiao Huo.
It wasn’t the fish reflected in his eyes, but Yunlai Creek.
Using action points increased proficiency fastest and most steadily. After using them, one could act tirelessly until the last mont.
At that mont, the Little Jiao Huo in the water let out a light hum. With a flick of its body, it deftly escaped from the fishing line.
However, Wang Mu only gave a light flick, and the fishing line, as if it had eyes, continued to wrap around and bind her. She was greatly startled and struggled frantically, but the more she struggled, the tighter the line beca.
In less than an hour, her entire body was tied up with the fishing line!
"Get up!"
Seeing this, Wang Mu pulled hard with his hand.
This delicate Little Jiao Huo was then pulled out of the water by Wang Mu and fell into his bamboo cage.
THRASH! THRASH!
Its strong and powerful tail struggled continuously, splashing water everywhere.
Wang Mu, however, was holding his chin, looking at the fish.
Its upper body’s skin was as white and flawless as jade. It wore clothing woven from aquatic plants, which was see-through. The key parts were covered with a type of shell used as immodest clothes. Its hair fluttered, and palm-sized fins near its ears flickered non-stop, like actual ears.
What surprised Wang Mu was the sll—a bit fishy, the sll of blood.
"Grandpa Yu, I caught one!" Wang Mu was quite excited.
Yu Li: "..."
Yu Li looked Wang Mu up and down a few tis and fell silent.
"Mu Guy... how old are you this year?" Yu Li suddenly asked.
"About... twenty-five or twenty-six?" Wang Mu thought for a mont.
"Have you ever had a partner?" Yu Li asked again.
"Never had one."
"Have you been married?"
"This... without even a partner, how could I be married?" Wang Mu was confused.
"You have no partner, nor marriage, and at twenty-five or twenty-six, you are at the age of vigorous vitality," Yu Li looked at Wang Mu with a strange expression. "Those previous fish species didn’t affect you much, I can understand, as you have an excellent temperant. But such a tender and peerless mythical fish species, and you, a vigorous young man, saw it just now without any reaction?"
"You’re not normal."
Wang Mu: "..."
"I had just entered a state of sudden enlightennt," Wang Mu explained. "In that state, I see nothing else."
Yu Li was about to say sothing more.
Suddenly, "SOB... SOB... SOB..." The Little Jiao Huo started sobbing in the bamboo cage.
"Demon! Why are you crying!" Yu Li shouted.
"I am not a demon!" the Little Jiao Huo, who, it seed, could speak human language, began in a peculiar, high-pitched voice familiar to Wang Mu. "I am from the rfolk Clan of Glazed Lake. I accidentally swam to Yunlai Creek, only to be caught by you villains!"
"Glazed Lake?" Wang Mu looked at Yu Li.
"To the north of Yunlai Creek, there is a lake like glazed glass, full of Water Monsters, dangerously perilous, and very far from here." Yu Li frowned as he looked at the Little Jiao Huo, and snorted, "Decades ago, my father was lured into the water by a rmaid from your clan and turned into food."
"Ah?" The Little Jiao Huo lifted her head and glanced at Yu Li, then exclaid in surprise, "Are you a descendant of Yu Dingtian?"
"You knew my father?" Yu Li was greatly surprised.
"Of course!" The Little Jiao Huo swayed her tail. "We rfolk are a humanoid clan; how could we eat humans? Besides, the flesh of you humans doesn’t taste good at all, mostly sour and foul."
Wang Mu: "?"
Yu Li: "?"
"And yet you dare say you haven’t eaten humans?" Yu Li shouted. "How would you know the taste?"
"That’s what other demons told , of course!" The Little Jiao Huo continuously swayed her tail. "Since you are a descendant of Yu Dingtian, just release ! If we’re talking about your Human Clan’s relationships, you should even call ’Aunt’."
"Initially, your father jumped into the water himself, got tangled with my elder sister, and desperately tried to follow her. My elder sister kindly took him in. Over ti, they developed feelings. Violating our clan’s rules, they were both expelled. My elder sister’s fate is now unknown."
"Humph! You humans are really despicable!"
The Little Jiao Huo opened her mouth, revealing two small canine teeth, and ferociously gestured at Yu Li.
"That’s impossible!" Yu Li did not believe it.
Nearby, Wang Mu thought to himself, A rmaid’s love story? The Newbie Village of the Immortal World sure has all sorts of talents.
"You still don’t believe it?"
The Little Jiao Huo then recounted, like an expert, the many deeds of that Yu Dingtian, as well as his character and appearance.
Wang Mu was quite surprised to hear this.
According to Little Jiao Huo, after Yu Dingtian returned to Glazed Lake with her elder sister, they spent ti together and developed feelings.
Then, a human and a demon naturally couldn’t be together, or else they would be attacked by all.
To achieve this, Yu Dingtian resolved to take her elder sister away. He first broke through their clan’s Sea Covering Array. Consequently, he defeated the rfolk Clan’s eighteen brave warriors. Next, he vanquished the thirty-six Water Monster sprites of Glazed Lake. He then forcibly took the Jiao Pearl from the Great Saint Moyun Flood Dragon to help her elder sister transform into human form. Finally, during their escape, he was defeated by the rfolk Clan’s Great Master of Fate.
They were caught.
Then both were placed under house arrest and exiled.
That’s outrageous... Wang Mu muttered to himself.
It sounded truly mystical.
Yu Li, too, was silently listening.
If it was made up, it was really well concocted.
"Grandpa Yu, what do you say?" Wang Mu asked.
Yu Li, staring at Yunlai Creek, suddenly sighed lightly. "Let it be. The past is like smoke; for , true or false has no aning. So many years have passed, I’ve even forgotten what he looked like."
"As for it, since you caught it, it is naturally your choice to make."
Wang Mu looked towards the Little Jiao Huo.
Today his luck had been explosive; Wang Mu knew it was definitely because of that Jinlong Carp.
Fishing sotis is not just about skill; luck is also important.
"Forget it, I’ll let you leave." Wang Mu shook his head and untied the fishing line.
This thing couldn’t be eaten, and eating it wouldn’t boost any attributes, so it was useless.
"TEE-HEE..." Freed from the fishing line, the Little Jiao Huo WHOOSHED out of the bamboo cage and said coquettishly, "May Great Immortal Bi You bless you, kind and handso human lad."
Wang Mu waved his hand and casually asked, "Who is Great Immortal Bi You?"
"He is a Demon Immortal that our Water Clan worships," the Little Jiao Huo said with a face full of reverence. "Great Immortal Bi You protects us in Huangtian Continent—no, the many mbers of the Water Clan in the lakes and seas of all the other continents! You humans definitely wouldn’t know!"
Great Immortal Bi You...
Wang Mu suddenly felt it sounded sowhat familiar.
