NOVEL NEXT Chapter 113: What kind of ghost are you? Who is fishing here, you or me?_3
Four meters! Three meters! Two meters! One meter!
The Yin entity beneath the water had already touched Su Yan's feet.
Just like that, submerged, it raised a ferocious-looking face to stare at Su Yan.
The scene was extremely chilling.
As the Yin entity gazed at Su Yan, Su Yan stared back.
A creature information panel quickly popped up from the depths of Su Yan's mind.
[Name]: Pike
[Species]: Water Ghost
[Level]: Rare
[Skill]: Drowning Luck
When Su Yan saw the word "Rare" on the creature information panel, he was inwardly ecstatic.
This is great, I've caught a big fish!
While Su Yan was secretly rejoicing, the Water Ghost at the bottom made its move!
It extended two rotten, algae-covered hands and grabbed Su Yan's ankle.
Then it yanked hard, trying to pull him underwater and make him 'thrillingly' breathless.
However, something strange happened.
No matter how the Water Ghost pulled and tugged, Su Yan, standing above the water, remained immovable, as solid as a rock.
What's going on? Why can't I pull this guy down?
At this moment, the Water Ghost, a Rare level creature, was bewildered.
As the overlord of this stretch of water, it couldn't understand why it couldn't move the student-like young man standing above the surface.
This is completely unscientific! I'm a Rare level Water Ghost, for goodness' sake!
With that thought, the Water Ghost, refusing to believe it, put all its strength into dragging Su Yan in a frenzy.
Yet, no matter how it pulled, it still couldn't move Su Yan an inch.
It was as if Su Yan had other legs rooted deep in the earth, plunging dozens of meters down.
Otherwise, a Water Ghost, famed for its strength, couldn't possibly fail to pull him!
Damn it! What in the world is going on with this guy?
The Water Ghost's composure shattered, its grim face hidden beneath the water looking utterly baffled, as if questioning its very existence as a ghost.
Forget it, forget it! Time to slip away!
This guy seems like big trouble; I'd better make a run for it while I can.
Thinking this, the Water Ghost released Su Yan's ankle and turned tail without a word.
However, just as it turned around, a PLOP sound came from behind, as if something had dived into the water.
But the Water Ghost didn't bother to look back; it went full throttle, frantically thrashing its body to escape underwater.
THUD!
The Water Ghost suddenly realized in horror that something had grabbed its feet.
It whipped its head around, only to be met with a smiling human face!
Damn it!!! The Water Ghost was so scared it nearly peed itself. A human face appearing suddenly in the deep water late at night—is it trying to scare a ghost to death for no reason?
BLUB BLUB BLUB!
The Water Ghost was truly terrified, its body thrashing frantically as it tried to shake off the hands gripping its feet.
However, no matter how it struggled, those large hands remained clamped to its algae-covered ankles like pliers, unmovable.
Suddenly, an immense pulling force emanated from the hands on its ankles.
The next moment, with a SPLASH!
The Water Ghost, which had been lurking underwater, was abruptly yanked up and dangled high above the water's surface, exposed to the chilling wind.
Su Yan held the Water Ghost with one hand and, with a deceptively harmless smile, said, "Hello, Water Ghost. I'm your daddy!"
Water Ghost: "???"
The Water Ghost was bewildered, unsure what Su Yan meant. Is he insulting me, a ghost?
Su Yan quickly spoke again, "Let's cut to the chase. I see your Creature Level is in the Rare Level category, so you must be the overlord of this stretch of water."
"It's simple: take me to the Yin entities in this area. If there are enough of them, I'll spare you. Well? Are you in?"
After speaking, Su Yan quietly watched the Water Ghost, awaiting its response.
At this point, the Water Ghost was thoroughly dumbfounded. Is he the ghost, or am I? Who's really doing the fishing here?
