Chapter 2038: The Whereabouts Of The Mussel
Yun Yanli wanted to try his luck to capture the majestic being.
He met with a group of Silver Wolves in the depths of the wood and was unfortunately injured, so he had to retreat to safety. He was taking his rest when he heard some footsteps. It was already too late for him to escape, so he decided to camouflage and turn himself into a rock to avoid any possible encounters with an enemy. Standing amongst other rocks, he certainly did not stand out. His Kung Fu was decent, but he would prefer to go unnoticed.
Gu Xijiu came later on but was entirely focused on the clan; she failed to notice him until he revealed himself.
Yun Yanli had been there three days earlier than her. Hence, Gu Xijiu asked if he had seen a mussel by describing the general features of her pet to him.
Yun Yanli was bewildered. "Is the mussel the majestic being that you mentioned before? Have you brought it along to heaven?"
Gu Xijiu had once told him about her majestic beings when they traveled together in the past. She told him about Lu Wu and the mussel, but they were both in the mortal world at the time, so Yun Yanli had only heard about them.
Gu Xijiu nodded. "Have you seen it?"
Yun Yanli answered hesitantly, "I had seen one. They called it the ’monstrous mussel’ for swallowing many majestic beings. It was taken away by a few celestial beings."
