Chapter 567: Joint Forces to Fight Monsters
The one inside its belly, it temporarily can’t deal with, but the one outside is perfect for venting its anger. Moreover, this is its territory, where it controls the storms and waves.
The Water Monster, immensely pleased, saw Jiang Xue getting closer and suddenly lifted its leg, swinging it towards her.
"Woman, the Water Monster is making a move, watch out!" The Little Fox saw the Water Monster’s actions and shouted in alarm. Jiang Xue, reminded by the Little Fox, reacted immediately.
However, in the water, her reaction was somewhat slow, and despite the Little Fox’s warning, she was still swept by the monster’s leg, coughing up a mouthful of blood.
Her body ached as Jiang Xue was swept away from the Water Monster. The Water Monster’s movement made Mu Qiancheng in its belly suffer as well, tumbling around again, now clueless about his location.
He reached out, touched the Water Monster’s belly, trying to find a spot to strike, only to discover that this place was much harder than before, as if it was a copper wall, iron bastion.
Several rolls made Mu Qiancheng feel exceedingly uncomfortable, and being inside the Water Monster’s belly, deprived of oxygen, he became wholly powerless.
Simultaneously, the stench inside the Water Monster’s belly became unbearable for him, causing him to vomit.
Meanwhile, outside, Jiang Xue was kicked by the Water Monster, sending her flying two to three meters away. Enduring the pain, Jiang Xue once again dove towards the Water Monster.
Watching the human approaching again, the Water Monster’s gaze flickered, lifting its leg once more, ready to kick once Jiang Xue got close.
However, what it didn’t know was that Jiang Xue was already on guard against it, naturally not repeating the first mistake. As Jiang Xue approached the Water Monster, she mobilized her Spiritual Power, preparing for a good fight with her opponent.
As she stirred her Spiritual Power, Jiang Xue, who was initially suffocating due to lack of oxygen, immediately felt much more comfortable, and even the areas previously kicked by the Water Monster no longer hurt. This discovery delighted her immensely.
If her Spiritual Power could alleviate the discomfort caused by a lack of oxygen, she could stay underwater longer, saving time in rescuing Mu Qiancheng.
Jiang Xue approached the Water Monster again, and as it kicked out its leg, she raised her hand and unleashed a burst of Spiritual Power. The moment the Spiritual Power was expelled, the Water Monster’s kicking leg seemed to hit an iron plate, instantly hurting.
At this moment, Mu Qiancheng also found a spot to strike again, plunging a dagger down, injuring the Water Monster both inside and out, making it even more furious.
With its rage, the waves in the lake surged up once more, growing taller and more ferocious, fiercely rolling towards the shore.
The people on the shore were struck with terror at the sight. No longer able to concern themselves with the life or death of Jiang Xue and Mu Qiancheng in the water, they all scrambled backward.
Bai Yuhua had not yet awakened and was still lying on the ground. Mu Siwu refused to leave, still guarding Bai Yuhua’s side despite the waves.
As for the park staff, they had already run far. However, when they paused and looked back, noticing people still by the lakeside, their expressions changed, and they ran back to help.
Shangguan Wenbin had initially been protecting Grandma Shangguan as they left. But after walking some distance and seeing Mu Siwu still in place, he had to let go of Grandma Shangguan, saying, "Grandma, I’ll go help the family in-laws."
"Go, go!" Grandma Shangguan waved her hand, and Shangguan Wenbin returned to the lakeside, pulling up Mu Siwu, saying, "In-law, let’s go!"
However, Mu Siwu remained motionless, his eyes fixed firmly on the wave rolling towards them, his heart incredibly calm, with a relieved smile on his face.
