Chapter 116 Water Monster

Perhaps next time, I'll be able to encounter advanced skill emblems.

"Let's go back to the village now. If we waste this much time here, the other magical beast might have already returned."

Zhang Xiaoyuan waved her hand, beckoning to the crowd.

When they returned to the village, Zhang Xiaoyuan found that many villagers were waiting on the side where the houses and woods met, staring intently at them.

"They're back! They're back! They're back!"

"Sigh, I wonder if they killed the monsters?"

"Don't even think about it. Look at how disheveled they are. They obviously didn't kill any magical beasts. They must have escaped back."

The villagers were not optimistic about Zhang Xiaoyuan and her group. After discussing for a while, they turned around and prepared to leave.

"Hmph, who do you think you are? Brother Yuan, show them the spider legs, and you'll scare them senseless!"

"Ishida said indignantly."

"Hey, don't say things too harshly. After all, they just want the monsters to die."

Zhang Xiaoyuan shook her head, signaling Ishida not to get too excited, but a dried-up spider leg with bloodstains appeared in her hand.

"Understood, Brother Yuan."

Ishida grinned, executed a beautiful spear flourish with the spider leg in his hand, and strode over.

The spider's legs were three meters long and still retained a faint aura of a magical beast.

Ishida swung his spider leg as he passed by the crowd, the tip of his leg scraping across a rock and leaving a deep mark.

"Ah, this, this is..."

"This leg looks just like that spider monster's leg!"

"What do you mean 'looks like'? It's obviously real! Look at those steel-needle-like fur and those long, dark blue legs—whose legs could they be if not the legs of a spider monster?!"

The villagers gasped in surprise, their eyes trembling as they looked at the spider leg in Ishida's hand.

"Make way, everyone make way! Be careful not to get scratched. We are not responsible for any injuries."

Ishida shouted loudly.

"Hey, young man, wait a minute, isn't that a spider leg from a spider monster?"

One of the villagers couldn't help but ask, glancing cautiously at Ishida.

"Hey, how did you know?"

Ishida raised an eyebrow and said, feigning surprise.

"Ah, it really is!"

The nearby villagers gasped in shock, and finally couldn't help but shout with excitement.

"Wow! Great! The monster is finally dead!"

"We're happy as we are, but there's still a monster in our village that we haven't gotten rid of yet."

"Tsk, why are you such a spoilsport? Can't you let us have some fun first?!"

"Hey! Can't I even tell the truth anymore?!"

……

Zhang Xiaoyuan ignored the villagers' changing attitudes, and after asking one of them about the distribution of the lotus ponds around the area, she prepared to go directly there to deal with the other magical beast.

"It's over there, I'll lead you there."

A villager led the way with a smile, a stark contrast to his earlier disdain for Zhang Xiaoyuan and the others.

"The soldiers who came to deal with the monsters said that the monster in the lotus pond was not very strong."

"It's only because that monster dug countless burrows underground that it managed to escape every time we tried to capture it."

The villager who led the way explained.

"Hmph, no matter what kind of magical beast it is, as long as it needs my brother Yuan, it can be dealt with in an instant, it's not even a problem!"

Ishida said, raising his head.

"Yes, yes, with a few of you brothers on the job, we'll definitely be able to wipe out all the monsters!"

The villagers laughed and said.

Before long, the villagers led Zhang Xiaoyuan and the others to the two nearest lotus ponds.

Both lotus ponds were foul-smelling, and all the aquatic plants and fish inside had died.

"Young man, that magical beast might not be inside."

The villager leaned forward, observed the water's surface, and then spoke.

“When that monster used to stay in the water, it would often swim and then its head would pop out.”

"In that case, let's go to the next lotus pond and see if we can run into them."

Ishida curled his lip. A monster that could swim in such dirty water must be filthy and very unclean, and could not be eaten as food.

"How about this, you tell the other villagers about the situation and ask them to keep an eye on the other lotus ponds."

Once we find any trace of that monster, I'll immediately message you so you can lead us there. That way, we won't waste any time.

This also ensures that when the magical beast returns to the lotus pond, it won't miss it because the pond has already been checked.

Zhang Xiaoyuan's eyes flickered, and she said calmly.

"Brother Yuan, that's a brilliant idea! How come I didn't think of that?!"

Ishida slapped his forehead and said.

That's because you're stupid!

Yulia made a face at Ishida from the side.

Ishida is angry!

"Alright, we'll do as you say, young man!"

The villagers were thrilled. Now they could finally get rid of the monsters in the village completely!

The villagers immediately sent messages to other villagers, telling them what to do.

Not long after, he received news from the other villagers who were guarding the lotus pond.

"It's here! The monster has appeared, right there in the lotus pond you passed when you entered the village!"

The villagers excitedly told Zhang Xiaoyuan about this hour.

"Okay, we'll head over right away, but don't disturb it, lest we alert it and let it escape."

Zhang Xiaoyuan gave her instructions.

"sure."

The villager nodded and sent a message to the other villagers.

To prevent the monster from escaping and to catch it as soon as possible, Zhang Xiaoyuan told Ishida and the others that he would run ahead first, and they could catch up slowly.

As soon as Zhang Xiaoyuan finished speaking, Shi Tian opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something more, but a cloud of dust rose up in front of him.

When the dust settled, Zhang Xiaoyuan was no longer visible.

"Sigh, Yuan-ge's speed is too fast. It seems like it will take me a long time to catch up."

Ishida stopped in his tracks and sighed.

"I don't think you'll have a chance in this life, not even in the next."

Julia laughed mercilessly from the side.

"Hmph, don't think that just because you keep calling me 'Brother Yuan,' Brother Yuan will like you. Look at yourself, you little brat!"

Zhang Xiaoyuan wasn't around, and Ishida didn't give way to Yulia either, hitting her sore spot right away, which made Yulia scream in anger.

"Hmph, just you wait, one day, Brother Xiaoyuan will fall in love with me!"

As if to convince herself, Julia clenched her fist again and said emphatically, "It will definitely happen, it will definitely happen!"

Immediately, her gaze hardened.

……

Where are the monsters?

Zhang Xiaoyuan arrived at lightning speed and discovered villagers lying prone and hiding in the grass not far away.

"Oh my, you scared me to death! How come you walk so silently like a cat?"

The villagers said with some resentment, but when they saw that it was Zhang Xiaoyuan, their expressions immediately became excited.

"It's in the water, right in the water. If you crawl forward a little, you'll see that monster swimming in the water."

Zhang Xiaoyuan nodded, leaned forward slightly, and sure enough, saw a head on the water's surface.
