Chapter 56: Escape

Splash!

Water was splashing and Lin Hou found it difficult to see his surroundings. Thanks to his attempt to use Moon Evasion countless times, his Qi was already depleted. He had no other choice but to retreat and got out of the river.

Splash!

"There!" Luo Lan, who still had pig like appearance, saw the commotion and rushed over. Behind him, Bai Xin also rushed over.

The two of them stopped before the river as they saw Lin Hou got out. Luo Lan planned to go inside immediately but when he saw Lin Hou’s face, he burst out laughing. "Wahahahahaha! You’re so handsome!"

Lin Hou’s face darkened as he gathered his remaining Qi and punched Luo Lan. Thanks to his greater speed and power, Luo Lan didn’t get any chance to block before he was thrown straight into the river.

Bang! Splash!

Inside the river, Luo Lan held the urge to curse when he saw the muddy water. He couldn’t see anything, ah! Slowly, Luo Lan struggled to get to the shore once more.

At this time, Lin Hou was trying to think where the two of them possibly go. He couldn’t see them properly inside the water, but he could guess that they must be villagers here. The river was located at the side of the village, so they might be using the river to get away.

But, there was one important thing: these two had to breathe.

When they appeared, Lin Hou would surely land a punch on their faces. He was pissed because he was dragged to fight under the water, a fight that was clearly unfavorable for him.

"They’re under water?" Bai Xin asked as she watched Luo Lan climbed out without any intention to help. She was still annoyed at this peeping tom who dared to sneak into her room without remorse before.

Lin Hou nodded.

Glancing at the water, Bai Xin’s brows creased. The muddy water clearly made it impossible for her to look at whoever was inside. This also soured her mood because she didn’t want to enter inside.

"Tsk, you really have foul temper," Luo Lan complained as he got out.

Passing a glance at Luo Lan, Lin Hou asked, "Do you see someone got out of the water?"

"What?"

"Do you see anyone inside?" Bai Xin rephrased the question.

Luo Lan tilted his head then shook it. He didn’t pay much attention when inside. Besides, with the water so dirty like that, how could he possibly see anyone. "I don’t."

Lin Hou furrowed his brows. He looked around the water, waiting for those people to go up in order to breathe. Yet, even after waiting for a long time, he couldn’t see anyone showing their faces.

His expression turned dark.

"What should we do?"

"Just report to Teacher later," Lin Hou finally said. He looked at the water with icy expression. After the mud was cleared, he could see that there was truly no one nearby. One way or another, those two managed to escape.

He felt vexed.

...

Meanwhile, Lin Xiao and Wenren Yu were going in the opposite direction. Lin Hou was paying close attention to the direction of the village, but the two of them were going in the opposite direction. Swimming underwater as fast as possible, they tried to evade the three’s field of view.

Splash!

"Are we already far enough?" Lin Xiao asked in low tone. He couldn’t see the three pursuers anymore after the river bend at one point. The river was not a straight line, so he came out behind the trees.

Wenren Yu nodded. "Should be."

"Why are we going to the north and not back to the village?" Lin Xiao asked again in confusion.

Pointing at the north, Wenren Yu spoke again, "Don’t you want to figure out the secret of the pond that those foundation establishment people tried to figure out?"

Lin Xiao looked at the north for a moment then nodded. He was curious as to why they wanted to find the pond and tried to take advantage of that. However, he also knew that it would be dangerous.

"What if they find us?"

"We’ll escape."

"Do you really think we can overrun foundation establishment cultivator?" Lin Xiao was speechless. From what he knew, Wenren Yu has always been very timid to the point that even he had the urge to slap the man’s head. But now, the same person was the one suggesting them to head to the north and chase those foundation establishment cultivators?

Did the sun rise from the west?

Wenren Yu rolled his eyes. "I don’t say that we’re going to get close but at a distance away from them. I want to know the reason why they’re chasing after the lake for so long."

Those three did say that the reason why they chose to collaborate with the people who wanted to overthrow Taiyi Sect was because of this lake. While the fishes did look special, but he wanted to find out the exact reason as to why those people dared to make their moves.

He didn’t want to die without finding out the reason why he had lost everything.

Lin Xiao looked at the decisive look at Wenren Yu and sighed. It would be a lie if he said that he was not curious. Since they were already involved in this matter, what difference would it make if they headed to the lake?

"Fine, let’s go."

"Great!"

With that, the two youngsters rushed to the north, completely forgetting the three frustrated youngsters who were waiting near the river.
