Chapter 309 Lanqiuze 12
"The water level of the Qiu River has risen!"
The river, which had been slowly calming down after the backflow, gradually submerged the grass on both banks.
The rippling blue river surface now resembles a colossal beast, not ferocious, but fraught with danger.
Recalling what Yan Yang said about the flood season arriving early, this thought popped into the minds of Yingyue and the other four!
The disciples who had been exploring the riverbed poked their heads out, and the waiting senior brothers and sisters gathered around them.
"How is it, Junior Sister Jiu?"
Cheng Jiu told his senior brothers and sisters about their discovery.
After hearing this, Senior Sister Yingyue and the others exchanged glances, a wry smile tugging at their lips: "Junior Sister, the river has risen!"
The flood season has arrived early!
The thought flashed through everyone's minds: what was the mastermind's purpose? Now it was crystal clear!
He thought: "I'll cause a flood!"
A senior student exclaimed in shock, realizing how ruthless the person behind it all was!
"Nothing during the flood season affects as wide an area as a flood!"
A senior female student spoke the truth about the person behind the scenes!
The expressions on the faces of those present grew even more grim!
Senior Sister Jin Su, who was examining the information on the jade slip, seemed to have learned something from it. With a serious expression, she walked over and said, "I just asked Senior Sister! She went to Sword Peak to inquire! Senior Brother Wu Kang is not dead!"
The room fell silent again in an instant, and everyone’s eyes were on Senior Sister Jinshu. If all the survivors were here, how did Senior Brother Wukang, who had been confirmed dead, survive?
No way!
The disappearing lake, the approaching flood season, and the eerie water monsters—even trusted team members couldn't help but harbor the most malicious suspicions.
Cheng Jiu's mind also paused for a moment, and it took him a while to clear his head again from the many speculations: "Senior Brother Wu Kang must be a direct disciple!"
"The 135th personal disciple of the Sword Peak Master!"
A pink jade stone appeared in Cheng Jiu's hand: "My master said this can save my life, and in a moment of crisis, it can teleport me to the nearest city!"
The nearest city to Rancho Zee!
Changming City!
Anyone with a certain status would recognize the jade in Cheng Jiu's hand, and for a moment they would realize what was going on. If they could find a reason, they would not want to suspect their fellow disciple!
"But Senior Brother Wukang did not return to the sect!"
A senior brother asked with difficulty, "Why didn't the senior brothers who escaped return to the sect?"
"It seems there's a problem with Changming City! Senior Sister Jinsu, please lead a group of senior brothers and sisters to Changming City."
Before anyone else could speculate, Cheng Jiu decisively ordered that whether the problem lay with the city lord of Changming City or with Senior Brother Wukang, they would find out soon enough.
"it is good!"
Senior Sister Jin Su chose her own team, plus the team of her close junior sisters, making a total of eight people, and headed towards Changming City!
Watching Senior Sister Jin Su's departing figure, Cheng Jiu said to the other senior brothers and sisters with a serious expression, "Senior Sister Jin Su and the others have their own missions! We also have our own battles to fight!"
The flood season is approaching, and we must find the vanished water and the hidden water spirit stone veins before it happens! We must stop this flood!
"it is good!"
The senior students who stayed behind echoed loudly, looking at the calm water, eager to try their hand at it!
"Okay, let's go down!"
After speaking, Cheng Jiu was the first to dive underwater, followed by the senior brothers and sisters who were already floating on the surface to investigate the formation. Finally, the remaining people who were flying in the air, one after another, plunged into the river like dumplings.
With the arrival of the flood season, the situation in Hanoi is more complex, and caution is required everywhere. If one is not careful, one can easily be swept into the undercurrents of the river.
You won't die, but it'll be a hassle!
Because of the water monster, the Qiu River's riverbed had long been a mess, deep and chaotic. Even with more than twenty people, it was still a drop in the ocean in this complicated Qiu River.
Finding your destination will probably depend on luck!
Water-elemental cultivators thrive in water, as it is their best source of information!
Cheng Jiu also imitated them by communicating with the remaining aquatic plants in the water.
These aquatic plants weren't very intelligent to begin with, and after getting nothing, Cheng Jiu inexplicably thought of Yan Yang, that idiot. If only that idiot hadn't died!
Yan Yang is the ghost with the strongest affinity for water that Cheng Jiu has ever seen. Just as she said, there is no place that Qiu He River reaches that she does not know!
And she did indeed use this affability to accomplish the river god's great feat!
Sigh, all the ghosts are dead!
Cheng Jiu shook his head, stopping his thoughts.
A faint blue light appeared in Cheng Jiu's field of vision. The blue light was so faint that it seemed to blend into the surrounding water; if one were not paying attention, one would probably think that one's eyes were playing tricks on them!
Cheng Jiu thought so too. He rubbed his eyes, but the blue light was still there, even more conspicuous in Cheng Jiu's field of vision!
"Senior Sister Yingyue! Did you see a blue light over there?" It wasn't a hallucination, Cheng Jiu quickly asked Yingyue, who was not far away.
Where is the blue light?
Yingyue's vision still showed only the darkness of the water, with no blue light whatsoever. Could it be that Junior Sister Xiao Jiu was mistaken?
"No, it is!" Cheng Jiu was certain. Although it was faint and could easily disappear from sight if one was not careful, Cheng Jiu was sure that it definitely existed.
"It seems to be leading me somewhere!"
Once he made up his mind, Cheng Jiu didn't hesitate and quickly chased after the blue light.
"Hey, Junior Sister Jiu!"
Senior Sister Yingyue felt that Cheng Jiu had said a few inexplicable words to her, and the next moment he suddenly chased after her in a certain direction. His appearance seemed to be the blue light that Junior Sister Jiu had mentioned, rather than a meaningless chase!
She quickly followed behind Cheng Jiu.
Seeing this, Wen Sishu, who was originally searching, saw Cheng Jiu and Yingyue swimming quickly in a certain direction. Without thinking much, he followed them!
Cheng Jiu was already the center of everyone's attention, and her strange behavior naturally attracted everyone's attention. Upon seeing this, a phenomenon of word-of-mouth spread immediately, and all the disciples who were searching followed Wen Sishu in unison.
Blue Light seemed to be waiting for Cheng Jiu, maintaining a distance that was neither too close nor too far.
As you go further down, you'll discover that there are quite a few channels that extend from who-knows-where, and occasionally you can see the inlets where water flows in!
That damned monster fish, that damned Huang Si, where on earth did they draw such a large amount of water from!
Drifting along with the current, you must occasionally be careful to avoid being led into those secluded and narrow waterways.
Although the pace was fast, fortunately, Senior Sister Yingyue did not fall behind, and the senior brothers and sisters following behind her also kept up and did not fall behind.
A tremendous force came from behind, and Cheng Jiu quickly disappeared from Senior Sister Yingyue's sight.
Senior Sister Yingyue quickly swam a few steps in the direction Cheng Jiu was heading, and then disappeared!
This left Wen Sishu and his senior brothers and sisters behind him bewildered. Looking at the empty, deserted water cave in front of them, with its many interconnected passages, they had no idea where Cheng Jiu and the others had gone.
After searching around without success, fortunately, a senior brother or sister with a water elemental root found the undercurrent and entered a shimmering water world.
Under the reflection of the surrounding water-spirit stones, Cheng Jiu and Ying Yue gathered around a large floating crystal to study it.
