Chapter 74 -74 Koi Carp_1

In the quiet of the night, another shriek suddenly echoed through the air.

Chu Liang quickly raced to the scene on the wind, finding two maids from the villa huddled together, crying in terror. He quickly tried to reassure them, “Do not be afraid, ladies. What happened just now?”

“There was a shadow over there…” One of the more coherent maids pointed towards the trees outside the courtyard, “It vanished like the wind all of a sudden, so terrifying!”

“You two head back to your rooms to hide for now, I’ll go and take a look.” Chu Liang advised, flying towards the direction they pointed at.

As he expanded his Divine Sense, he could indeed feel a faint tinge of Demonic Aura in the air. It was very weak, perhaps it had accidentally leaked out while it was on the move?

Following the flow of this Demonic Aura, he soon spotted a colorful figure standing outside another courtyard. The figure was quite visible in the night, no wonder the maid spotted it immediately.

Noticing Chu Liang’s approach, the figure was startled and turned to flee.

It moved astonishingly fast!

Chu Liang quickly gave chase as well.

However, the figure was airborne, moving like a fish in water, having virtually no resistance and being unbelievably smooth, swift as the wind!

What a fast flyer.

Despite Chu Liang pursuing at full speed, the figure was already far away in the blink of an eye.

The speed of the demonic creature was as fast as the Human-faced Mandrill he encountered earlier. Even a Golden Core Realm Cultivator would likely struggle to chase it. But he had already used the Spirit Cat Leaping Talisman, so another surreal chase was not possible.

However, he was not the same Chu Liang as before; he now had other Magic Artifacts at his disposal.

Whoosh——

As the green light flared up, Chu Liang brandished his Life Origin Green Leaf, and flew off by stepping on a large leaf like a flying carpet.

Although he was not yet fully proficient in “minor control”, it was at least stronger than before. He could make a short distance attempt. Even if he had not mastered it, he could not just watch the demonic creature escape. He had to try after all.

Just like that, Chu Liang stepped on the green light, and his figure instantaneously turned into an afterimage.

The demonic creature hadn’t expected Chu Liang to pursue so closely. Once it turned back, it found that he was fast approaching. This clearly caused some panic, its figure becoming more frantic.

Within a matter of moments, they were by the river, outside South Border City. This was the Qin Nan River, with its torrents running deep. If the demonic creature made it into the water, Chu Liang had no divine skills that could be used underwater.

Their distance had greatly shortened by now, he could almost make out the figure of the demonic creature, which seemed to be that of a graceful woman.

Lightning-fast!

Just as she leaped high into the air, about to hit the water.

Thinking on his feet, Chu Liang shouted, “Go!”

The entire person flipped backwards, gently landing ashore as the flying leaf under his feet, relying on inertia, continued forward, even faster. In no time, it was right under the demonic creature.

Chu Liang’s hand seals shifted.

Defend me!

Whoosh——

The large green leaf rolled up entirely, instantly wrapping the demonic creature completely, forming a big rice dumpling, suspended in mid-air.

Chu Liang raised his hand yet again and slowly beckoned the green leaf back.

“Uh, uh, uh…” There were muffled screams and beating sounds from inside, as if the demonic creature was struggling to escape from the leaf.

“Hmph.” Chu Liang snorted.

Trying to escape?

I couldn’t even escape when I was wrapped in it myself!

This suddenly reminded Chu Liang of a phrase, ‘Trash is just resources in the wrong place’… even if it wasn’t quite appropriate here. The Defense Array Pattern that Wen Yulong refined might not be perfect for defense, but it worked perfectly fine as a control mechanism.

With that, he gently cradled the “big rice dumpling” and made his way back to Li Family Village the same way he came.

…

At the tower of Li Family Village, Chu Liang and Lin Bei reunited.

Both had captured someone.

“Wow, you got another control Magic Artifact?” Lin Bei looked surprised as he saw the secure zongzi in Chu Liang’s hand.

“…Please think of it as so.” Chu Liang said softly.

He briefly narrated the events and placed the zongzi on the ground. The two of them, filled with curiosity, slowly opened the green leaf.

Unpacking.

Whoosh——

A burst of green light flickered, and with the leaf gradually unfolding, a pure and ethereal face was revealed. Her skin was snow-white, and her hair was messy; her large eyes full of anger, puffing up with indignance.

“Scoundrel!”

“Dirty scoundrel!”

Once this demonic creature appeared, she spotted Chu Liang outside and yelled immediately. She turned her head and saw Lin Bei by her side, and she hastily added another insult.

Looking at her face, Chu Liang and Lin Bei were somewhat surprised.

“Liu Xiaoyu?” They still remember her name.

During the day, many girls participated in the talent show, singing beautifully and dancing gracefully, but their names didn’t remain memorable. Yet, this naive young girl who was lacking both in singing and dancing managed to leave a deep impression on them.

“You know me?” The young girl shifted her eyes in surprise.

“We saw you in the talent show earlier… So you’re a demon.” Chu Liang frowned and pondered, “Then, your intention of sneaking into Li Family Village during the day… Did you have a scheme?”

“I came to find my sister!” Liu Xiaoyu shouted.

“Sister?” Lin Bei raised his hand when he heard this, “Tell us more.”

The young girl glanced at him, then at Chu Liang; her fine eyebrows knitted tightly, “If I tell you, will you let me go afterwards?”

“Young Miss Yi, you’ve been coming to Li Family Village frequently these days, causing some disturbances, but ultimately you haven’t hurt anyone. As long as you promise not to come again, we won’t give you a hard time,” Chu Liang said, “But no matter what your reasons were for coming here, I hope you can explain them clearly.”

“This isn’t fair.” The cultivator playing the role of a ghost rolled over, raising his neck, “I didn’t hurt anyone either. Why are we treated differently? You should at least tie her up like you did to me before questioning her.”

“Get lost!” Lin Bei kicked him away, “Do you think I don’t want to… Oops, what do you think we are?”

Having said that, he turned to Liu Xiaoyu with a smile, “Don’t be afraid, little girl. Just keep talking.”

“Hmm…” The young girl hesitated for a while, looking at Lin Bei’s face, then at Chu Liang’s. She seemed to judge whether they were bad guys or not, and it took her a while to speak: “My sister and I were originally from the Koi clan in Jinhua River…”

“Koi huh…” Chu Liang touched his chin, considering them half-neighbors.

“We were living happily in the Jinhua River, but some bad people would come to disrupt our peaceful life. My sister gained some magic power first; I was nothing but a little koi that couldn’t transform.”

“One day, my sister said she wanted to take me upstream to play. When we swam to the location of the Qin Nan River, we suddenly encountered a tidal wave and got swept into a cave at the river bottom.”

“Inside, there is an Amber Cinnabar tree. There were two ripe fruits in it. The larger one can add five hundred years of magic power, and the smaller one can add three hundred years. My sister let me eat the big one, and after ingesting it, I acquired the ability to transform.”

“We were really happy and thought that after transforming, we could go play onshore. My sister said we could reach Southern Border City from there.”

“But when we came out of that cave, we ran into a large turtle demon that wanted to eat us. We fled, got separated, and I inadvertently bumped into a Water Mansion left behind by a senior fish demon. Inside was a Flying Fish Spirit that had passed away…”

“It left behind its Flying Fish Spirit, which merged into me, and afterward, I could swim really fast,” the young girl continued.

“Wow…” Chu Liang couldn’t help exclaiming.

No wonder they say koi are lucky.

They encounter miracles whenever they go out and find treasures wherever they walk.

“Then I thought, since my sister once said she wanted to go to Southern Border City, why don’t I look for her there?” Liu Xiaoyu said, “But there are too many people in the city. I didn’t dare enter. When I was passing by this villa, I found my sister’s lost scales and her scent outside…”

“I thought she might be inside, so I wanted to find her…”

“But this place is too large. I looked for several days but couldn’t find her, and then you captured me.” Liu Xiaoyu spoke in a small voice, looking wronged.

“So that’s what happened.” After listening to her story, Chu Liang nodded, “Tomorrow, I can help you ask the people here if they have seen your sister. You can’t sneak in here like this at night anymore. It will scare people.”

“Will you really help me?” Liu Xiaoyu looked at them nervously.

“Of course!” Lin Bei patted his chest, “You know, I absolutely love helping little girls who have lost their way.”
