C107 On the eve of the great war (2/2)
Yang Xie's eyes flickered as he looked at the calm surface of the lake. Since he had discovered the 'Moon-Devouring Beast', he would naturally not let go of such a great opportunity.
Just as he was about to get up and leave, Yang Xie suddenly sensed a weak aura coming from not too far away. This aura disappeared in a flash, but at the same time, it was extremely weak.
Yang Xie looked over with rapt attention, only to see a black figure flash past, and disappear into the vast night.
”Looks like more than just one person is plotting against this' Moon-Devouring Beast '.” Yang Xie's eyes flashed. From the aura just now, he was obviously not Liu Mei'er. It was clear that there was another person who wanted to help the 'Moon-Devouring Beast'.
However, it made sense when one thought about it. With how precious these beasts were, anyone who found them would be unable to resist coveting them.
In the following days, other than teaching Yang Tianyu during the day, Yang Xie would meditate and cultivate. At night, he would go to the lake to observe the movements of the 'Moon-Devouring Beast'.
And after Liu Mei'er left the Courtesan Belle Competition, she had actually given a song on the Lingbo lake every day, attracting countless people to watch. Naturally, there were a few people who mysteriously went missing, and as for the outcome, they naturally became the 'Moon-Devouring Beast's' food.
Every day, there would be a large number of people gathering at the Lingbo lake's side. This continued for more than twenty days, and in the end, no less than a hundred people had already lost their lives there.
It was only at this point that everyone started to feel fear. Gradually, the people started to spread that there were man-eating water monsters in the lake, and they spoke very clearly. Due to their fear of water monsters, the number of people that came to listen to the song also began to decrease.
Just at this time, Liu Mei'er suddenly announced that she would no longer play in the lake, and with her departure, the Lingbo lake became even more deserted. In less than two days, not a single person could be seen by the Lingbo lake's side. Even the 'non-return building' had announced that it was closed, and only those empty flower boats were left on the lake's surface, deathly still.
Even the residents who were near the lake had moved to other places. Compared to the bustling scene that Yang Xie saw that day, the bustle was extremely great, it was like the difference between heaven and earth.
Today, after Yang Xie finished teaching Yang Tianyu as per usual, he closed his eyes and started to cultivate alone.
