Chapter 154: Beast Attack
Just as he was preparing to continue his attempts, footsteps could be heard from outside the courtyard, like those of two people.
“Let’s leave the meals here.” A boy’s voice suggested.
“I wonder how long the immortal brother will stay. He hasn’t come out for more than ten days.” A timid girl asked in a soft voice.
“Shush! Bell, lower your voice. Sister Ying said that Immortal Brother is in seclusion, we can’t disturb him. Let’s just put the things here and leave quickly.” The boy continued.
Upon overhearing this, Shen Luo’s eyebrows twitched, and his figure leapt out from the pond, simultaneously inciting a seal with his hands.
The water on his clothes scattered away from his body, instantly leaving him dry. The dispersed water droplets melded together in front of him, forming a water rope that shot out and opened the courtyard door.
Two children, one tall and one short, were standing outside the door. One was a little boy dressed in a worn-out green cloth shirt and holding a bamboo basket—it was Little Fish, the boy he had met before.
The other one was a little girl with braids like sheep horns and dressed in a red patched clothing. She looked a year or two younger than Little Fish, her plump face graced with a pair of watery, big eyes.
Seeing the door suddenly being opened scared both of the children. Bell, the little girl, instinctively hid behind the little boy, exposing only her large eyes to look around.
