Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios“As for why that Qian Yue looks exactly like me, I have no idea as well.” Perhaps it was a coincidence? Lonemoon frowned as if suddenly recalling something. “Shen Ying,, don’t you think…”He just started speaking when Bai Ze suddenly appeared beside them. He looked at Shen Ying excitedly and said, “Shen… Ying, come with me.”“What’s the matter?” Shen Ying did not feel like moving away from the table.“It’s not something wrong with Shortie, is it?” Lonemoon jumped to his feet. Shortie had already been resting at the spirit spring for three days. There were still no update.“No! She’s doing very well. She can probably come out tomorrow.” He spoke clearly once he turned to Lonemoon. “I just have a place where I want to bring Shen… Ying to.”“I’m not going” Shen Ying rejected him. She had no interest in matters that required her to move.“…” Bai Ze stared anxiously at her. He thought of something, then retrieved a storage bag, handing it to her. “Give.”“What?” Shen Ying received it. She pulled it open and something slid out. It was long and smooth and had a slimy body. It dropped on the floor with a splat and kept wriggling.What the hell?“This isn’t an… octopus is it?” Lonemoon prodded the leg on the table with his fan.“It’s a thousand-legged beast.,” Bai Ze responded. He looked at Shen Ying, blushing.“Can I eat it?”Bai Ze nodded profusely and said, “There are a lot…”“Father Niu!” Shen Ying’s eyes brightened. It was written all over her face: I want to go, I want to go, i want to go! Seafood, seafood, seafood!╭(・ᄇ・)و̑̑“You can go if you want to – I don’t want to!” Lonemoon glared at the foodie. He was not going to go and be her bag-carrier.“You should have said so earlier! Let’s go!” Shen Ying jumped to her feed. She pulled Bai Ze’s head along without looking back.It’s been a long time since she had seafood!“Wait!” Lonemoon shouted after them. “Don’t forget what we just talked about. While it’s-”“I know!”A reply came back but Lonemoon could no longer see her.He narrowed his eyes and sat back down.A while later…Chef walked out with a plate of food in his hand. He glanced at the empty seat, not knowing how to respond. He looked blankly at Lonemoon. “Where’s Master?” She had not finished eating her lunch. This was the first time this was happening!Lonemoon raised his head and scanned Chef from head to toe. “She got lured away by someone’s octopus.”Yi Qing’s expression darkened. “Why didn’t you stop Master?”“Why should I stop her?” Lonemoon retorted. He looked confusedly at Chef’s murderous expression. There was a twinkle in his eye as he sighed. “Ah, women are unfaithful!”“…”Yi Qing’s expression became even darker.He wanted to kill a beast!——————Bai Ze brought Shen Ying to a huge lake. The water was so clear that one could see right to the bottom of the lake.It looked like a blue gem sitting on the ground. The lake was extremely big as well – Shen Ying could not see where it began.”“Furball, how should I catch them?” Shen Ying’s eyes were bright. She had a bunch of names of the sea creatures filling her mind. “Should we drain the water?”Bai Ze stared in awe at Shen Ying’s twinkling eyes. Then his face turned bright red. He quickly turned aside. “Wait… Wait for awhile.”He quickly took two steps away and stopped in front of the water. He conjured a seal, producing a flash of bright light. Bubbles began to surface at the water surface. Suddenly, a figure appeared from inside the lake. He was a middle-aged man in back robes. Yet, the lower half of his body were octopus legs, complete with the suckers.This was the octopus?“Thousand Legs greets the Supreme Divinity.” The man bowed respectfully to Bai Ze, walking to the shore with his countless legs.“Mm.” Bai Ze nodded, recovering his cold demeanour. He reached out and said, “Give it to me.”“Supreme Divinity, you’ve finally decided to clear the demonic beasts from the lake!” Thousand Legs rejoiced, his excitement clear on his face.Qian Ye Lake is nicely located at the south of Bai Yun Mountain. There were countless demonic beasts inside the water. Although they could say that those beasts had no spirit or intellect, there were still a lot of them. What’s more, they had a tendency to emerge from the water and attack the beasts that walked by. As time went by, nobody dared to come to the lake. Some begged the Supreme Divinity to do something about it, but for some reason, the Supreme Divinity was determined not to clear them. All he did was to send Thousand Legs there to take charge of the place and ensure that the beasts did not come out to hurt others.Now, Supreme Divinity finally decided to interfere in these matters. Thousand Legs had not felt so excited in a long time. He quickly reached out and plucked off a strand of his white hair. It turned into an octopus leg immediately. He handed it over to Supreme Divinity. “Supreme Divinity, I have long prepared it.”Bai Ze received the leg, turned and gave it to Shen Ying. “Shall we go fishing?”“How should we fish?” Shen Ying glanced at the thick octopus leg . She only knew how to eat. Hey, this leg was good for barbecuing!“This Exalted Goddess,” Thousand Legs quickly stepped forward and said. “The demonic beasts are familiar with my aura. As long as you throw this in, you will lure them toward you.”Shen Ying received the octopus leg and turned to ask, “Doesn’t it hurt?” It must have hurt, even though he had so many legs.Thousand Legs laughed. “Exalted Goddess, you’re very considerate. This is just the form that my hair takes. It looks this way because it contains my aura. It’s not actually my leg.”“Oh.” She threw it into the water, hundreds of metres away.The leg was just about to land on the waterbed. The calm and quiet water surface suddenly stirred and more than ten huge black shadows broke out of the water. Their green scales were illuminated by the sunlight. There was a flash of golden light and the beast right in front swallowed the octopus leg before returning underneath the water. It seemed to have notice that there were people on the shore, and it quickly charged toward them. The wave above the water grew to about ten feet tall, and they could faintly see hundreds of pairs of blood-red eyes staring at them from within.“This is not good. It’s the Green Sand Demonic Fish group!” Thousand Legs explained. This type of demonic fish always travelled in groups. Each group had about fifty to two hundred fishes and each of them looked horrifyingly ferocious. “Supreme Divinity, why don’t we…”Before he could finish speaking, Bai Ze waved his hand. He immediately summoned hundreds of thousands of wind blades which flew toward the wave. Every single fish was hit. Not a single one remained alive.The next moment, the wave subsided. On the water surface, the bodies of the dead fishes floated toward them. The pile of dead bodies was as tall as them.Thousand Legs: “…” He’s indeed the Supreme Divinity.Shen Ying excitedly ran over to pick the fishes up. She held one fish in each hand. There were so many! She was thinking that she had to ask Chef to steam, boil, roast and barbeque them. He had to cook them in every single way possible.“Furball, your method is so effective!”Bai Ze’s face flushed red immediately. He quickly caught up with her and pulled out a storage bag, handing it over to her.Shen Ying’s eyes brightened. She received it and patted his shoulder. Very seriously, she said, “I like people who have good taste like you.”Bai Ze stiffened. The red in his face spread to his hair so that it looked like he dyed his hair red. He faintly felt something explode in his mind, which was empty at that moment. Did she just say she… she… likes?o(*////▽////*)qA long time later…He finally muttered, “Me.. too.”
