"There are some people; their auras are filthy, both fishy and foul, and they are haunted by killings... They gather together, and I’m afraid of getting dirty, so I don’t dare approach."
Mo Hua’s eyes brightened, "Take me there, I’ll help cleanse their sins."
"Mm-hmm," the Little Silver Fish nodded repeatedly, "I’ll take you there now."
Although it didn’t know how to cleanse sins exactly, since benefactor commanded, it was naturally willing to comply.
It’s rare to have a chance to repay benefactor’s kindness.
The Little Silver Fish was quite joyful.
It wagged its little tail and swam forward, saying in a soft voice, "Benefactor, follow me quickly."
Mo Hua nodded, then pointed in the direction the Little Silver Fish swam, saying to Gu Changhuai: "Uncle Gu, this way."
Gu Changhuai was silent for a moment.
Mo Hua then said, "The Little River God knows the whereabouts of the water bandits; it will lead the way for us."
The Little River God...
Gu Changhuai turned his head and glanced at the empty water surface, silently sighing.
"Alright then..."
Hopefully, this kid isn’t joking.
Gu Changhuai habitually followed the direction Mo Hua pointed and rowed the boat forward.
Xia Canonical Official watched but didn’t stop him.
However, her internal confusion grew deeper, and the way she looked at Mo Hua became more perplexed.
The Little Silver Fish wiggled its small body, leading the way in the water.
Mo Hua followed the faint silver glow to guide Gu Changhuai.
Gu Changhuai rowed the boat, Xia Canonical Official remained silent, and only the sound of the boat breaking the water, the water murmuring below the hull, was heard.
The Little Silver Fish was the River God; though it had only recovered a small part of its authority, it still knew its domain exceptionally well.
No one knew Mistwater River better than it did.
And naturally, no one was better suited to lead the way.
After some time passed, and they entered a new stretch of water, Gu Changhuai and Xia Canonical Official suddenly sensed something, their expressions changing.
They released their Divine Sense, scanning around, then couldn’t help exchanging glances in surprise.
They had actually found it...
Meanwhile, the Little Silver Fish also stopped, turning back to say to Mo Hua:
"Benefactor, we’re here."
Mo Hua looked up, seeing a vast riverbank before him.
The riverbank was overgrown with wild grass.
