Chapter 119: The Water Ghost is Human
When Fan Yi appeared in crisis, Li Meng had actually arrived nearby, and the screams and cries from the Guihu Dam made him and Xiao Yangzhou's faces change at the same time.
"Yangzhou, block the way and don't let the villagers come up." Li Meng ordered, and before Xiao Yangzhou could respond, he left with a gust of wind.
"This..."; Xiao Yangzhou was still hesitant, but seeing that he couldn't even catch a glimpse of Li Meng's shadow, he was shocked and silently agreed. But what he couldn't understand was how someone could be so fast, did Liu Xiang have such speed as Li Meng?
Li Meng quickly arrived at Gui Hu and saw that Zi Yue's small body was struggling to swim towards the center of the lake, but due to his poor swimming skills, he was moving slowly, with a look of urgency on his face. Meanwhile, in the middle of the lake, large waves were rising up, indicating that something was happening underneath.
"Whoa!" Another dark figure stepped forward before him and flew towards the center of the lake. This was a middle-aged man wearing a Zhongshan suit. Although they were quite far apart, Li Mang could still feel the anger emanating from his body. This was someone from the Fan Gu Dao sect who had come to protect Offender Two!
"Zi Yue, hurry up and get ashore!" Li Meng's heart tightened, and he didn't have time to think much, so he took a heavy step on the ground, causing a piece of the embankment to collapse, and he himself flew towards the center of the lake like an arrow. He traveled more than ten meters before falling into the water, but then made his body light and stepped on the water's surface, rushing towards the middle of the lake like a swallow.
Splash!
The man in the Zhongshan suit had now arrived at the lake and plunged into the water with a loud splash, causing the ripples on the surface to become even more violent, as bubbles churned up from beneath the water's surface.
Splash!
The water surface was quickly broken, and a man in a Zhongshan suit, drenched from head to toe, emerged from below, still holding someone in his hand. Who else could it be but Fan Yi?
"What the f**k! You actually want to kill me? Li Meng, you quickly go and take care of that b*stard, it's those few guys from the nightclub!" Fan Yi couldn't catch his breath but started scolding and cursing, spitting out a few mouthfuls of lake water as he did so, looking very comical.
But at this time, Li Meng couldn't laugh out loud, instead his face was as cold as frost, a killing intent almost materialized and pierced towards the water surface, stirring up a wave of ripples. Originally he still thought there was another tiger turtle in the water, but unexpectedly the truth was that those three people were secretly plotting, for that little conflict they actually wanted to assassinate Fan Yi, if they succeeded... Li Meng really didn't dare to imagine it further.
Splash!
Li Mang didn't say a word and dove into the lake. Immediately after, he took out the Xuanpin Great Blade from the storage ring that Fan Gu had given him, his eyes scanning for the opponent's figure in the hazy lake water.
But apparently the strong emergence of the Zhongshan suit man had scared away the people at the bottom of the lake, who were not nearby at this time, but Li Mang could see his escape route, which was a fading ripple.
"Is it just one person?" Li Mang furrowed his brow, but fearing losing their trail, he quickly followed after them without another thought.
Very soon, a vague black shadow appeared in his line of sight, but it was too blurry to make out who it was specifically, and he could only judge from the color of the clothes that it was probably Ye Zhou or Wei Chi Rong.
His agility was just as effective in water, Li Mang accelerated his speed in silence, constantly getting closer to the opponent. Closer and closer.
Ye Zhou! Li Meng quickly saw through the true face of this person, who was none other than Ye Zhou, who had given him an impression of being rather arrogant. At this moment, he still held a long sword in his hand, its thin blade slicing through the lake water, and despite being in the water, it could still reflect a sharp edge.
Splash!
Ye Zhou seemed to have sensed something and suddenly turned around to see Li Meng. He frowned. If it were before, he would have drawn his sword and killed him immediately. But the encounter with that man earlier was really terrifying. At this moment, he had already sprouted a mind to retreat, and seeing Li Meng, his archenemy, he had no will to fight. He feared that the person above would come after him again.
However, he didn't make a move, but that doesn't mean Li Meng would let him off, although his body was still agile in the water, with a flick of his body, he slid over, not fast but elegant, but Li Meng had no intention of playing games, and directly swung his big knife at Ye Zhou.
"Hmph!" Ye Zhou's indistinct cold hum was accompanied by a sudden vibration of the long sword in his hand, causing the water around it to part and then swiftly shooting towards Li Mao.
With the long sword in hand, Ye Zou gained a lot of confidence, which was not arrogance at all. The swordsmanship of Shu Mountain used to be unique and now, although it has declined, it still has a great reputation in the cultivation world.
Clang!
The sound in the water doesn't seem loud, but this intense sonic wave is piercing the eardrum. And then there's the energy that bursts out after the collision, which the lake water can't withstand, and it explodes with a roar, even splashing high waves on the surface of the surrounding water.
However, this is just the beginning, and the battle in the water becomes more intense, with waves of turbulence that do not calm down for a long time. The sound of clashing knives and swords can be heard all the way to the shore, and the location where the two are located is experiencing wave after wave of explosions. The surface of the water is churning violently, even showing signs of affecting the entire Ghost Lake.
"Bad, bad! Li Meng might not be his opponent after all!" Fan's face changed color, he was pulled into the lake bottom and had a fight with Ye Zhou, knowing that this Shu Mountain Sword Sect cultivator was quite capable, if it wasn't for the bodyguard from Zhongshan who arrived just in time to save him, he wouldn't have been able to escape.
The man in the Zhongshan suit next to him also became very worried and begged: "Senior, can you go help Li Meng?"
"Right, Li Meng can't hang around... If he hangs around here, it'll make me uneasy and affect my cultivation. Damn it, I should have practiced martial arts earlier!" Fan Yige said indignantly, but the worry on his face was thoroughly betrayed by this excuse.
The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, but considering that the other side had three people, in addition to Shui Zhong, there were two accomplices. If he went down to help, it might give the other side an opportunity to take advantage of him, which was not advisable. He fell silent for a while and then said expressionlessly: "Li Mang can still resist, let's wait and see for now!"
Fan Yizai is the goal he wants to protect, and what happened just now has already made him feel uneasy, absolutely cannot make any mistakes again. As for Li Mang, once at a critical moment, he will also take action with discretion.
Zi Yue and Fan Yi were at a loss for words, even Fan Yi didn't have the authority to order this person around, so they could only continue to cast their tense gaze towards the center of the lake.
The battle in the water was extremely intense, but Li Meng didn't show any weakness as they had imagined, instead he took advantage of his agility and didn't fall behind at all. It was just that Ye Zhou's swordsmanship in the water was also impenetrable, making him tired from responding, the Shu Shan swordsmanship indeed lived up to its reputation.
Fortunately, Li Meng was not only agile in the water, but his big knife was also a notch higher in level than Ye Zhou's long sword, which was only of yellow rank and close to Xuan rank. Every time their blades clashed head-on, they would suffer damage, and unintentionally fall into a disadvantageous position.
Kicked the steel plate!
Ye Zhou's attack became more and more frightening, secretly regretting his own impulsiveness, the long sword in his hand fiercely stabbed towards Li Mao, but was blocked by Li Mao's knife, then he quickly retreated with force, turned around and escaped in another direction.
