I Come to Teach You Cultivation-Chapter 188 - 3: Lord Tingyao Slacking Off (3/3)
"Achoo!"
Wearing Li Boyang’s Red Skin Fur Robe and sprinting ahead, Li Jingshu sneezed without warning.
Xiaogui, who was peeking around under the coat, was caught off guard and got a big fright.
"Did you catch a cold?"
"I told you to be more careful!"
"In this heavy rain, even with your physical condition, you might not be able to withstand it!"
The nagging voice echoed in Li Jingshu’s ear.
But she nonchalantly wiped her nose and replied with a smile.
"My little brother is quite busy right now, as he would say, he’s spread too thin..."
"It’s rare for him to need my help, so what does this little cold matter?"
As she spoke, an invisible Body-Protecting Gang Qi emerged from Li Jingshu’s body, instantly shielding her from the raging wind and rain outside.
This showed that despite her tough words, Li Jingshu knew when to prioritize the important matters.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
In contrast to the slow pace of the large group behind her.
Li Jingshu’s progress was like walking on flat ground, striding rapidly.
The rain-soaked mountain trails seemed non-existent under her feet.
Occasionally encountering some unavoidable bogs.
Li Jingshu simply employed her not-yet-mastered Soaring Clouds and Mist divine power, soaring directly over them from low altitude.
During this process, the fluttering Sleep Bugs provided excellent guidance.
Li Jingshu didn’t need to discern the road and direction herself.
She just had to follow the path guided by the Sleep Bugs.
[Faster! Faster! Even faster!]
This was the first time she received such a clear mission from Li Boyang.
For this reason, he even entrusted her with his personal Red Skin Fur Robe, and naturally, Li Jingshu didn’t want to disappoint him.
Besides, this mission involved Qiwa’s life and death.
[According to my brother’s divination, I must reach Qiwa before the tide waters rise above the knee.]
...........................
The sky’s torrential rain continued, the river’s waves never ceasing.
Amidst the storm, Qiwa had rarely had such a good sleep.
Until suddenly he heard the hunter’s loud shout, turning immediately to look below the dam.
Unnoticed, a new wave of torrents had already arrived.
The reinforced dam was smashed by this wave, showing signs of breaching once again.
As for Lord Tingyao, who was supposed to be at the forefront of the tide?
He was completely swallowed by the raging waves, making it impossible to see what he was doing.
"Quick! Bring all available earth and stone materials!"
Quickly untying the rope around his waist.
Qiwa, braving the rain, rushed to the next breach point.
In fact, even though Qiwa had warned in advance and the villagers had indeed carried out the repairs and reinforcements.
The power of this wave still far exceeded everyone’s expectations.
As the waves slammed into the breach of the dam.
Bags filled with earth and stone were swept onto the dam by the tide.
A villager repairing the dam didn’t dodge in time and was struck on the head by a rock, almost swept into the floodwaters by the receding wave.
"Save him! Save him first!"
Arriving in time, Qiwa pulled the injured man up and tossed him to the dazed villagers nearby.
Then, after a brief hesitation, Qiwa carefully took out a Pill from his bosom and handed it to the villagers.
"Make sure he takes it!"
"I’ll handle it here for now, you just focus on bringing the materials!"
Rushing to the frontline against the floodwaters, Qiwa’s honest face was filled with determination.
The distinctively robust build of the Li Family Village villagers.
Stood like the sea calming god pinning the peak of the waves, giving the villagers unprecedented courage.
"Listen to Qiwa!"
"We’ll handle it here, just focus on bringing the materials!"
Quickly rushing to stand shoulder to shoulder with Qiwa.
Although the hunter was in a sorry state, he expressed his determination.
This was his village, so naturally, he couldn’t let an outsider protect his village alone.
Sharing the same determination were several mountain people who remained silent, tying their ropes to stakes.
Under the impact of such violent waves, their actions were equivalent to betting their lives.
Should this section of the dam breach, they wouldn’t even have the chance to be dragged back by the waves.
After all, if swept away by the floodwaters, having good swimming skills and excellent luck gave a one in a million chance of survival.
To succeed or die trying, this action undoubtedly reignited everyone’s morale.
"Lord Tingyao!"
Seeing this situation, Qiwa could only turn around with tears in his eyes.
Rushing to reinforce the dam while shouting to Lord Tingyao who had been engulfed by the waves...
"Boy, stop shouting! Be careful not to attract big trouble!"
Suddenly emerging from the waves, with four arms gripping the edge of the dam, Lord Tingyao rarely showed a nervous expression.
"Trouble?"
Even before Qiwa could react, he heard Lord Tingyao suddenly release a wail.
"Ah!"
He saw those "water streams" striking Lord Tingyao, leaving terrifying claw-like scars.
Lord Tingyao’s blood mixed with the receding floodwater.
In no time, it dyed the surrounding water red within tens of meters.
"What?"
Seeing the bloody wounds on Lord Tingyao’s back, Qiwa realized he had been attacked.
Gritting his teeth, stomping his foot...
Qiwa disregarded everything, instantly jumping onto Lord Tingyao’s arm, then running towards His back.
"Boy, what are you trying to do?"
Wide-eyed with shock, Lord Tingyao never expected Qiwa to be so reckless.
His arm was no smooth road.
Especially under this storm, any carelessness would result in being swept into the floodwaters.
"Of course, to avenge you!"
Drawing a small arm-length dagger from his waist, Qiwa demonstrated surprising physical prowess.
In just a few short breaths, Qiwa reached Lord Tingyao’s shoulder and finally saw clearly what had attacked Him.
It was a group of Cannibal Fish hidden in the flood, eagerly gnawing at the torn flesh.
"You’re too reckless, they..."
Before Lord Tingyao could finish speaking, Qiwa slashed at a Cannibal Fish that leapt up.
Clang!
Though it was flesh colliding, a piercing clash of metal echoed.
Qiwa, caught off guard, nearly slipped and fell into the water.
Fortunately, Lord Tingyao reacted in time.
With one hand, He shielded Qiwa, even flicking the Cannibal Fish away.
However, immediately after, Lord Tingyao somewhat regretted His quick response.
Doesn’t this clearly reveal to Qiwa that He had been slacking earlier?
