The Divide Between Humans and Gods? (2/3)
"Gurgle"
There was no energy left to pay attention to the battle between Yan Xiaojun and Tian Wu.
Qiwa, who was thrown into the flood, choked on a mouthful of water.
He then quickly adjusted his state and demonstrated his extraordinary swimming skills.
The piranhas around him repeatedly tried to bite the human, but were repeatedly driven back by the Qiwa wielding his knife.
However, these piranhas are clearly sentient.
While they may not be as intelligent as real humans, they are still more intelligent than most wild animals.
After being forced back by the Qiwa several times in a row.
Instead of trying to kill each other in one go, the piranhas began to spin around in the whirlpool.
Whenever Qiwa tries to get ashore, these piranhas will forcefully jump out of the whirlpool and drag him back into the water.
After repeating this several times, Qiwa's physical strength was severely depleted, and a faint sense of despair arose in his heart.
Metaphor!
Just then, a terrifying low-frequency sound wave suddenly came from underwater.
Upon hearing the low-frequency sound waves, the nearby piranhas struggled and thrashed their tails, escaping the whirlpool in the shortest possible time.
The next second, a nearly one-meter-long Human-Faced Fish slowly emerged from the water, just enough to support the Qiwa's body.
With a slight sense of unease, Qiwa instinctively glanced down below.
Just then, I saw the face on the back of the Human-Faced Fish wink at me, with a slight smile on its lips.
Qiwa recognizes the Human-Faced Fish.
Or rather, there is no one in Li Household Village who doesn't recognize the Human-Faced Fish.
This is the retinue of the water god of the Mountain God Reservoir, and also Li Boyang's most fervent worshipper.
Even if they don't understand the language of the Human-Faced Fish.
Qiwa often heard the call of "Great Arbiter of Fate, Great Arbiter of Fate" coming from the reservoir.
Furthermore, this sound only occurred when Li Boyang was inspecting the reservoir.
When others patrolled the reservoir, they could only catch glimpses of the Human-Faced Fish's curious, scrutinizing gazes.
Over time, the people of Li Household Village basically understood that "Great Arbiter of Fate" was the exclusive title given to Li Boyang by the Human-Faced Fish clan.
"Thanks-
Qiwa was lifted to the shore by the Human-Faced Fish before he could even whisper a word of thanks.
Just when Qiwa thought the crisis was over, he suddenly heard screams from the embankment not far away.
"Careful!"
"Qiwa, watch out behind you!"
There's something in the water, watch out!
When the cries of surprise reached my ears.
Qiwa suddenly turned around and saw a torrent rising up in a strange way, then transforming into a water demon wielding a sharp fork behind the Human-Faced Fish.
That was the Water Sprite, a kind of monstrous creature that forever hides in the flow of water.
Thump!
Before he could even utter a warning, Qiwa instinctively jumped back into the water with his knife.
Clang!
Accompanied by a piercing clang of metal on metal.
The dagger in Qiwa's hand was cut off by the fork, and he himself was sent flying.
Fortunately, the Human-Faced Fish reacted in time.
As the dragon swung its tail and fanned the Water Sprite, it also carried the Qiwa out of the water.
"!"
Turning back, another sonic shockwave was unleashed; this time, the Human-Faced Fish used a piercing, high-frequency sonic impact.
In an instant, the once ferocious water demon transformed into a wisp of water and vanished.
Even the piranhas nearby were affected and turned belly up one by one.
"Haha, it seems that even if you join forces with that water ape, you'll never amount to anything."
Almost at the same time that the Human-Faced Fish appeared and repelled the Water Sprite, Yan Xiaojun also successfully crushed Tian Wu's head.
Puff l·-
As fish bones pierced through his body, blood and brain matter spilled out.
Tian Wu had no choice but to release the other party and drag his half-crippled body back into the water.
It wasn't that Yan Xiaojun didn't want to kill the other party directly; it was just that gods weren't so easy to kill.
Don't be fooled by Tian Wu's current miserable appearance.
But once he was free from Yan Xiaojun's control, he recovered in an instant.
In fact, Yan Xiaojun even suspected that Tian Wu's fish head was just for show and not a weakness at all.
"You all should die!"
Although his appearance has been restored, Tian Wu is clearly Yuan Qi.
Enraged, he let out a roar, and the already raging floodwaters surged even higher.
A fierce wind swept across the sky, and large raindrops gathered from the clouds and began to fall.
Most terrifyingly, Water Sprite emerged from the floodwaters, riding the raging waves and once again surging towards all the creatures along the banks and embankments.
This is really a big problem.
Yan Xiaojun casually tugged at the God-Binding Cord around his neck and muttered something under his breath, clearly annoyed.
By now, the situation has clearly spiraled out of Yan Xiaojun's control.
If it weren't for the God-Binding Cord, Yan Xiaojun would have definitely hung up Tian Wu and beaten him.
However, under the restraint of this God-Binding Cord...
Yan Xiaojun could only silently pray that Qiwa would have good luck and not die in the flood.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A thousand thoughts flashed through her mind, but that did not stop Yan Xiaojun from launching an attack.
A four-armed giant, ten meters tall, charged against the raging waves, each slap capable of killing a Water Sprite.
With the dam at the very front, even the fiercest waves can never breach the dike behind it.
This bought the villagers enough time to reinforce the dike.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Regardless of the cause or the outcome.
Looking at the scene at this moment alone, no one could remain unmoved.
Because of Yan Xiaojun, this mountain god, more than 80% of the risks of this flood were withstood.
"We... we can't let Lord Yan fight alone!"
The speaker was a hunter from the Mountain Folk, and his words were echoed by all the villagers.
More and more Mountain Folk are choosing to tie ropes around their waists to wooden stakes, vowing to live and die with this dam.
Yan Xiaojun, who had taken a moment to witness this scene, was overwhelmed with complex emotions that words could not express.
[A bunch of idiots--·]
A thought flashed through my mind.
Yan Xiaojun's gaze unconsciously drifted back towards the direction of the Qiwa.
As Yan Xiaojun had predicted, the Qiwa, who had already escaped danger, once again engaged in battle with the Water Sprite, just like those foolish Mountain Folk.
Compared to the floods and the army of Water Sprite brought by Tian Wu, the Qiwa's resistance seemed so insignificant.
But his gaze remained firm.
His eyes were filled with a light that Yan Xiaojun had never understood before.
It represents hope, trust, determination, and above all, a belief that refuses to be betrayed.
Before Qiwa, Yan Xiaojun had never imagined that among these insignificant humans, like ants, there were individuals who could inspire his respect.
