Chapter 581 Yi River (2/2)

Ahead of them was a big river which was flowing. The waves were splashing and the water was clear. Lei Jing's eyes fell on the water as she enjoyed the scenery.

A Heng too stared at the water as he thought about a lot of things. After a while, someone patted on his shoulder and asked, ”Why do you look like you've lost your soul when you see the water?”

A Heng smiled bitterly, ”Monarch, in reality, this is where I was born.”

Si Jing was surprised, ”No one knew where you were from but you were actually from Yi river. Where's your mother?”

”Every mountain and river has a god, there is the mountain god and also the river god. My mother was Yi river's celestial and hence, I know a lot of things. She disappeared when I was seven and later I moved to Diqiu. As I am not from Xia Clan, I become a servant.” A Heng sighed.

Si Jing smiled and did not ask for the details. She knew that A Heng carried a lot of secrets which was the reason why she did not want to accept his strategy. Youshen was a good place which would allow her to be far away from Diqiu. She decided to spend a long time at a quiet place in her nominated country and not be bothered with any troubles. If she could achieve immortality, she would be able to achieve her wish. She said, ”Let's get off the cart and look at how beautiful the scenery is at Youshen.”

A Heng said, ”Then I will introduce to you the great parts of the place.”

They were walking slowly by the Yi river, in addition to A Heng's story-telling which was extremely enchanting, even the servants and guards were into it. Si Jing too listened closely. His storytelling style was like her teacher.

Unknowingly, it was sunset, the river was reflected red and that the waves were like red flowers. Ahead of the river, there was a bush of reeds which were too shone red.

All in a sudden, everything including the river, the sunset, the reeds disappeared. She could only see the fishing man.

Si Jing saw the fishing man, A Heng saw him too.

He was wearing an aqua blue Daoist robe, where the two sleeves were embroidered with the eight trigrams. His long hair was let down and the face underneath it was pale and clear. The pair of eyes were as dark as the night that had no stars or moon.

A Heng had never seen such a gorgeous and mysterious gaze. He could not move his eyes away just by one sight. He was different from others the moment he was born. He knew what he was chasing after and it was to discover the most mysterious secret of the universe. It was not something unique to him as there were a lot of others who were doing it.

He too would claim that he was ahead than most in this path but at that moment, he hesitated because, in the eyes of the man on the other side, it was revealing an essence of the eternity. It was the eternal Dao rhythm that even if the sun, the moon, and the stars were to fade away, he would not. The state of heavenly immortals or the state of Taiyi were nothing in the face of such Dao rhythm.

It was just like the Great Way was all hidden within his eyes as they revealed indefeasible power which could make anyone feel defeated under his gaze.

A Heng ultimately was different from most. He kicked a rock which then followed the path of the Xuan philosophy as it hovered on the surface of the water, breaking the silence and making it rain with the splash.

The fishing man naturally picked up his fishing rod and the black fishing lines suddenly extended and pierced through the rock like it was nothing. It shot towards Si Jing mercilessly.

It was not a technique that was difficult to counter but A Heng realized that there was no longer Qi of vitality in the space. Any application of supernatural powers would be discounted. This revealed that the fishing man had planned ahead for this.

The supernatural power required to overcome this restriction, to him, was as easy as peanuts. However, A Heng did not do anything because Si Jing said, ”Don't move.”

Si Jing lifted her wrist and all in a sudden the splashing water gathered and transformed into a huge net. Ignoring the black fishing lines ahead, it went straight towards the fishing man.

There appeared a windshield in front of her which was formed by green gas. The black fishing lines were shredded to pieces by the windshield.
