"But the Water Prison Technique, he really liked it, so he accepted it. At the same time, he felt a bit uneasy in his heart, seeing that the cultivator was impoverished. Therefore, he also gave him some Spirit Stones and helped him find a village to settle down and establish a livelihood..."
Elder Yi’s words ended here.
Mo Hua gradually furrowed his brows, "True Man Yi fishing by the river... This river, is it the Mistwater River?"
Elder Yi nodded, "Precisely the Mistwater River."
"Did True Man Yi mention where by the Mistwater River that was?"
Elder Yi said: "My uncle didn’t mention it, but since it was fishing, I suppose it should be at the downstream river bend. Back then, I also went fishing there with my uncle a few times..."
"Downstream river bend?"
Mo Hua didn’t have any impression.
"Around thirty miles west along the turning of the Mistwater River," Elder Yi said, "The water is deep there, and Water Demons are abundant. Swamp and mud accumulate, cultivators rarely go there, but a few miles away, there’s a water village..."
Mo Hua was suddenly startled.
"A water village?!"
Elder Yi was startled by Mo Hua’s sudden shock and couldn’t help but ask:
"What’s the matter?"
"What water village?" Mo Hua asked urgently.
Elder Yi shook his head, "I just went fishing twice, caught only three or four fish, how could I pay attention to what the nearby water village was..."
Mo Hua’s heart was heavy.
He had a strong premonition.
The water village Elder Yi mentioned was likely the "Yu Family Water Village" that was recently exterminated by Water Yama!
The cultivator True Man Yi saved was likely a cultivator from the Yu Family Water Village.
The cultivators from the Yu Family Water Village possessed the heritage of the Water Prison Technique.
The Yu Family Water Village was exterminated by Water Yama.
Water Yama said, "The cultivators of the Water Prison Sect must die!"
That being said...
This Yu Family Water Village is the remaining descendants of the Water Prison Sect.
Water Yama exterminated the entire Yu Family Water Village not just to build an altar but also to kill the descendants of the Water Prison Sect to silence them?
And Yu Family Water Village... Yu...
Mo Hua’s pupils shrank.
He hadn’t realized before, but now he suddenly remembered, in the small fishing village, Old Yu, Yu Dachuan, Little Shunzi, and Little Shuizi’s family, they all bore the surname "Yu"!
Mo Hua’s heart skipped a beat.
Could Old Yu’s family also have ties to the Yu Family Water Village?
Mo Hua’s thoughts fluctuated, his expression uncertain.
Elder Yi couldn’t help but ask, "What are you thinking?"
Seeing Mo Hua unresponsive, Elder Yi asked again.
Mo Hua finally came back to his senses, said: "Nothing, I’m thinking about the Formation I haven’t finished drawing, I’ll go back first, thank you Elder Yi..."
"If you ever need anything, I will definitely help you!"
Mo Hua promised, then dashed off.
Elder Yi watched Mo Hua’s departing figure, shaking his head in confusion.
...
Mo Hua returned to the Disciple’s Residence, his mood still unsteady.
He immediately transmitted a message to Gu Changhuai, asking: "Uncle Gu, is there anything happening over at the small fishing village?"
After a while, Gu Changhuai asked:
"What matter?"
"Just..." Mo Hua thought for a moment, "Are there any Sin Cultivators or Evil Cultivators wandering nearby?"
"I have people from the Gu Family keeping an eye, for now, nothing unusual," Gu Changhuai said.
Mo Hua breathed a sigh of relief.
"What happened?" Gu Changhuai asked.
Water Yama might also exterminate the small fishing village...
Mo Hua thought about it, decided to keep it from Uncle Gu for now, since he doesn’t have evidence yet.
"I was just asking casually."
Gu Changhuai seemed a bit alert, "Are you... hiding something from me again?"
