If anyone could see into the heart of the little black fish, they would be able to sense the words that were echoing in its mind ….
"Didn't you say you would help me?"
"Didn't you say you would catch me and let me bite you?"
"Didn't you say you would be angry?"
The little black fish was confused …. After a long moment passed, it finally reacted. It let out a miserable shriek as it thrashed about on the outside of the black fog. When it realized that no one was paying it any attention, it finally stopped and left, letting out a string of angry howls.
While it was venting its anger, Chen Qing, who had stepped into the black fog, couldn't help but feel a headache coming on. He hadn't expected Wang Baole to have swallowed half of the black fish. That pitiful look on Wang Baole's face made it difficult for him to intervene.
"If things keep going like this, Junior Brother won't actually eat the fish, will he …?" Chen Qing's eyelids twitched. In his opinion, such a thing was highly likely. Rubbing his forehead, he sent his divine sense out to cover the entire gray void. Then, he saw ….
A strange expression appeared on his face, as well as a bit of helplessness.
He saw that in the gray cosmos, Wang Baole was still absorbing the Qi of Death. Beside him, the donkey and a youth were hiding. Although they tried their best to hide, they had swallowed their saliva countless times.
That was especially true of the donkey, whose head had just been restored. However, his chin was still damaged, and his saliva was spilling out into the void ….
As for Wang Baole, although he wasn't drooling, the gleam in his eyes and the way he swallowed made it clear … that the three of them were addicted to fishing.
"Are they stupid or what?" He murmured. "That fish was bitten so badly. How could they pass?" However, even as the words left his mouth, his eyes suddenly went wide. He stared blankly at the black fish that had just left Wang Baole and the other two idiots … reappeared.
Gritting his teeth, he began to get restless.
After a moment of silence, Chen Qing decided that he should retract his earlier judgment. This black fish … really was a bit stupid.
But no matter how stupid it was, it was still the Dao of Heaven. Therefore, despite his headache, Chen Qing cleared his throat and sent a message to Wang Baole via divine will.
At the same time, Wang Baole was reprimanding the donkey and Little Five.
"Both of you, restrain yourselves!"
"Little donkey, you'd better swallow your saliva. Your saliva is all over the place. If this goes on, that fish won't dare to show itself!"
"Little Five, go and catch the little donkey's saliva. Hurry up, or I'll use the two of you as bait if we can't catch anything!"
Xiaowu and the donkey looked aggrieved. They dared to be angry, but they didn't dare to say anything. They looked at each other quickly as if they were thinking, 'Is this something a human should say? This is too much.'
However, Little Five did not dare to resist. He could only run over and place his hands under the donkey's chin. He sighed as he caught the saliva.
Wang Baole snorted and was about to continue reprimanding the donkey when suddenly, his expression flickered as Chen Qing's words echoed in his mind.
"Little Junior Brother, stop sucking in the aura of death, and stop staring at that fish. That's the Dao of Heaven of the Underworld Sect …. I'll take you to the Underworld Sect later, and you can suck as much as you want."
"Elder Brother?" Wang Baole was pleasantly surprised at first. However, when he heard the words clearly, he immediately felt guilty. He nodded hurriedly and turned to glare angrily at the donkey and Little Wu, who were fishing. He kicked the two of them away and spoke through gritted teeth, exasperated at their failure to live up to his expectations.
"What are you doing? That fish is so pitiful. You actually want to catch it?"
"Do you have any compassion? Do you have any compassion? This is too much! " Wang Baole roared angrily. His expression and his words caused the donkey and Little Five to stare blankly, confused.
"I didn't have the heart to do this in the first place. You just had to threaten me and force me. But my conscience hurts. I feel like I've let the baby black fish down!"
"Let me tell you, I've come to my senses now. I can't help the evildoers. From now on, the baby black fish is my brother. Anyone who dares to have any ideas about it is going against me, Wang Baole. They're my mortal enemy, and I won't rest until one of us is dead!" Wang Baole's words were resolute and decisive. They echoed in all directions, causing Little Five and the donkey to tremble. But the one who was most shaken was the black fish that had followed them from a short distance away ….
The fish had been gnashing its teeth, feeling wronged and angry. But when it heard Wang Baole's words, its body began to tremble. It wasn't because it was angry, but because it was moved!
It was like a person who had been severely wronged. No one would understand, and no one would stand up for them. But at that moment, someone would suddenly come up and rub its head, giving it warmth and understanding. They would even tell it loudly that if anyone bullied it in the future, they would help. If anyone bullied it, they would be their enemy. They would know all about the grievances it had suffered.
Under such circumstances, anyone would be moved, even if the other person was an enemy …. That was especially true of the immature black fish. Because of that, it instantly shifted most of its enmity and hatred toward Wang Baole. Not only that, it even felt that Wang Baole was very warm.
If that was all, the black fish might have realized what was going on after some time. However, Wang Baole wasn't going to give it the chance to do so. After he finished speaking, Wang Baole raised his right hand and waved it. Instantly, he took out a small portion of the black strands of hair that he had prepared as snacks and shouted loudly.
"Little fish baby, don't be angry, alright? Come out for a moment. This is my apology. From now on, we're all brothers. I won't absorb the aura of death anymore. If anyone provokes you, I'll stand up for you."
As soon as Wang Baole said that, the black fish hiding nearby hesitated and seemed to hesitate.
Wang Baole waited for a while. Seeing that it didn't appear, he pulled out some more black strands of hair. A warm smile appeared on his face, and he did his best to make himself look as friendly as possible.
"Little fish baby, I was wrong. Forgive me. From now on, I'll take you to eat all of these black strands of hair!"
Perhaps Wang Baole had moved the little black fish, or perhaps the black strands of hair were too attractive. Or perhaps there really was something wrong with the little black fish's mind …. Therefore, it didn't take long for the little black fish to slowly appear off in the distance. It looked warily at Wang Baole.
Little Five and the donkey widened their eyes when they saw that. They quickly looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes as well as the admiration that rose involuntarily.
"Could it be that kicking us just now was just a show, and its true goal was still to fish? Amazing, amazing! "
"Son! Son! Son! Son! "
As Little Five and the donkey looked on in shock, the little black fish flew over, swallowed a mouthful, and then retreated. It was still on guard, but when it realized that there was no danger, it flashed over and then disappeared again. After a few more times, the little black fish seemed to lower its guard. After Wang Baole pulled out more black strands of hair, the little black fish finally got close. It didn't leave immediately, but ate while looking at Wang Baole in confusion.
Right now, Little Wu and the donkey's eyes were shining brightly. They opened their mouths and were about to pounce. The little black fish reacted instantly. It was about to explode with fear and anger, but Wang Baole seemed to be even angrier than it was. He shielded the little black fish behind him and rushed forward, kicking Little Wu and the donkey one after another. Amidst a loud boom, he sent Little Wu and the donkey flying.
"Shameless! This is too much!!"
"Do you still have a conscience? Let me tell you, the baby fish is my brother, your senior. No one is allowed to eat it from now on!!"
That scene stunned Little Wu and the donkey. They couldn't help but feel aggrieved. As for the little black fish, it was stunned as well. When it looked at Wang Baole, it seemed to be on the verge of tears. It let out a howl as if it had found a family member and pounced towards Wang Baole. All of its hatred towards Wang Baole disappeared in an instant, shifting to Little Wu and the donkey.
So it was the two of you!
There was no mistaking it. The one who had bitten him was the beast with only its head left!
"Don't cry, Little Fish." Wang Baole smiled warmly and gently stroked the little black fish's body. Then he glared at Little Five and the donkey.
"Little Fish is so cute. You two … don't do it again!"
"…" Little Five was silent.
"…" The donkey was at a loss.
"…" Chen Qing continued to rub his forehead.
