This was why fishing was such a fascinating sport.
Even when the fish were willing to take the bait, they could still bring surprises.
Having Crystal show up instead of Akasha was certainly an... unconventional catch.
After all, their previous encounters had made it clear that not only were their personalities completely different, but the two of them also had a very poor relationship.
Still, looking on the bright side, the first camp was a better fit, and the second was at least someone he knew.
As he savored this unexpected surprise, Fu Qian even found it easy to understand what might have caused it.
"You're looking for Akasha?"
Facing that gaze from eyes without pupils, Fu Qian, who had just finished welcoming her, asked mysteriously.
That's right, he was the one asking her.
The demigod Crystal had a bit of a bratty streak. He'd get less information by making polite conversation, so he might as well make the topic a little explosive.
Besides, he wasn't just making things up. In Fu Qian's judgment, there was a real possibility.
It wasn't just the tangled history between the two of them. Don't forget the commotion from earlier.
She was a demigod who specialized in chilling things, so why all the silk and webs? Why stay hidden while constantly making the commotion seem to come from Akasha?
Was it because they had a grudge, and she was deliberately trying to smear her?
At first glance, it sounded plausible, but a moment's thought made it clear that it was almost impossible, given Crystal's personality.
If she wasn't deliberately trying to smear Akasha, what was the point of coming all this way to do this?
And why was it this woman who had arrived so quickly, even though she was Akasha's former Blood Slave?
