My Master Disconnected Yet Again

"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 h.e.l.l?

"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, blus.h.i.+ng .

"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 sh.o.r.e 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, n.o.body 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 fis.h.i.+ng?"

"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 G.o.ddess," 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 G.o.ddess, 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 sh.o.r.e, 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. .h.i.t . 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?

A long time later…

He finally muttered, "Me . . too . "
