Clear Moon Lake.
The surface of the lake was extremely large. Due to the influence of the surrounding mountains and terrain, it resembled a crescent moon, quietly embedded in the ground.
The surface of the lake was as flat as a mirror, reflecting the sunlight and sparkling.
The source of the Clear Moon Lake came from the Eastern Sea. It flowed all the way here, forming a long river that separated the Xiuxian Continent into the North and South.
In layman's terms, the Clear Moon Lake was the mother river that nurtured thousands of mortals.
There were many fish and prawns in the lake, making it a good place for fishermen to fish.
However, the Clear Moon Lake, which used to be flooded with fishing boats, was now strangely quiet. There was not a single person to be found within a few miles.
Whether it was in the lake or on the shore, the wreckage of fishing boats could be seen everywhere. It was a shocking sight.
Just then, a man appeared beside the Clear Moon Lake. He carefully walked forward, not daring to make a sound.
He looked hesitant, unsure if he should take the risk.
In the end, he gritted his teeth and slowly walked toward the Clear Moon Lake.
If Li Nianfan was here, he would definitely recognize this man. He was the stall owner that he often visited to buy fish.
The stall owner walked skillfully to the shore and stood on top of a wooden pole. He quickly pulled the fishing net on the pole.
As it turned out, he had taken the risk of casting the net here a few days ago, waiting for the right opportunity to harvest.
"Demons aren't omniscient and omnipotent. I can't be so unlucky as to run into them." The stall owner was a little nervous. His hands trembled as he pulled the net. However, the net seemed to be heavier than before.
This meant that the harvest was not small, but the stall owner was not happy.
"Hurry up!"
Cold sweat began to appear on the stall owner's forehead. The veins on his hands were bulging as he pulled the net with all his might.
Finally, the fishing line slowly shrank, showing signs of reaching its end.
"Almost there!" The stall owner's face lit up. He pulled the net even harder and could not help but fall into a state of narcissism.
"When I'm done fishing, I can show it off everywhere. This is definitely the most glorious moment of my fishing career. I'll have something to brag about in the future! Also, Young Master Li complained that I didn't have enough fish last time. When he finds out that I risked my life to catch so many fish from the Clear Moon Lake, he'll probably be shocked and admire me from then on! As the saying goes, riches and honor are found in the midst of danger. I didn't risk my life in vain. "
As he thought about it, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up into a smile, and he felt even more powerful.
"Plop!"
The fishing net floated to the surface of the water, but the scene of the fishes jumping around did not appear. Instead, what entered his eyes was a huge fish head!
The fish's head alone was as big as the stall owner's. Its mouth was wide open, and its sharp teeth shone with a cold light. Below its head, something had bitten it off. Fresh blood flowed out, dyeing the entire lake red.
The stall owner was so frightened that he sat on the ground, his face as pale as paper. "Demon … Demon!"
The next moment, a huge figure suddenly rushed out of the water.
"Hua la!"
The lake water splashed out, and the fish head was directly swallowed by a large mouth!
Taking a closer look, it was actually a completely black abalone that was even bigger than an adult!
"Demon, it's a demon!"
The stall owner was so frightened that his soul almost left his body. However, his psychological endurance was still quite good. He was not so frightened that he could not move. With a scream, he turned around and ran away at the fastest speed in his life.
The abalone spirit carried a huge and thick hard shell on its back. The meat at the front of the shell squirmed slightly, and immediately formed a huge suction force that sucked the stall owner in!
The stall owner hugged a big tree with great difficulty. However, before he could even take a breath, the tree was uprooted from the ground and flew towards the abalone spirit.
"I'm dead, I'm dead!"
The stall owner's body floated in the air. His mind was blank, and those three words were repeated over and over again. Tears were already flowing out of his eyes.
"Evil creature, how dare you hurt people?"
At this moment, a majestic roar was heard.
"Clang!"
Following closely behind was a sonorous and powerful sound of a zither. Although it was only a single sound, it caused the surrounding lake water to surge violently, as if it was going to turn the sky upside down!
The lake water formed a huge wave, pressing the abalone spirit to the ground, unable to move!
"Plop!"
The fisherman fell to the ground as if he had lost his soul. He only regained his senses after a shudder.
He looked at the subdued abalone spirit in front of him and widened his eyes in horror. Then, he immediately turned around and ran away.
"I've survived, I've survived!" The joy of surviving a disaster made his brain work quickly. "That's awesome. I once escaped from a monster's mouth. This is enough for me to brag about for the rest of my life."
The Great Elder stroked his beard and smiled with satisfaction. "It's a success. Let's hurry up and present this abalone spirit to the expert."
Everyone nodded and smiled. "Great, great!"
At this moment, Emperor Luo noticed Luo Shiyu, who was in a daze. He could not help but ask curiously, "Shiyu, what's wrong with you?"
Luo Shiyu swallowed a mouthful of saliva. She could only feel her heart beating rapidly. With a hoarse voice, she said, "That person just now seemed to be … the stall owner that Young Master Li often buys fish from."
'The stall owner that Young Master Li buys fish from?'
Everyone frowned at first. They were all smart people. After a short while, an extremely terrifying thought came to their minds. It made their scalps tingle, and they felt as if they were about to explode.
In the end, all the fear turned into a chill!
"Hiss —"
It was terrifying to think about, terrifying to think about!
Qin Manyun said with a trembling voice, "Young Master Li chose today to ask you to send the score to me. In addition, he gave us all kinds of hints to ask us to come over. Does this mean that he had already predicted everything and wanted us to save him?"
Emperor Luo took a deep breath and said, "It's highly possible! Fortunately, we understood Young Master Li's hints. Otherwise, if we failed to save the stall owner, we would inevitably be disliked by Young Master Li. "
The Big Elder said seriously, "Yes. Although this stall owner is only a mortal, the expert's actions are all about fate. Since he often buys fish from him, he must have some sort of fate with him. Being able to save him can be considered as forming a good karma."
Everyone was very glad. Fortunately, they did not dare to neglect Young Master Li's matters. That was why they were able to save the stall owner in the nick of time.
Everything in the world was under his control. Yet, he mingled in the mortal world with the body of a mortal. He would not do anything personally. This was the demeanor of a peerless expert!
In the future, they would have to think twice about anything that the expert did. They had to complete it as soon as possible!
The Big Elder adjusted his state of mind and said, "Alright, hurry up and send this Abalone Spirit to the expert! It's not convenient for us to go. "
"Okay." Qin Manyun nodded. She led Emperor Luo and Luo Shiyu to bid farewell to the five elders. Then, they flew towards Li Nianfan's courtyard house.
