Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 1231 - 1232: Shuijing Lake

"Disturbing him at this time might make him angry."

"But if we don’t remind him..."

"Enough, I’ll go with you. I believe he won’t do anything out of consideration for me."

Granny Mianlan sighed somewhat helplessly. If it wasn’t such an urgent matter, she really would not want to bother Feng Yuan, especially at this time. After all, placing one’s hopes on a certain person or a Divine Beast is always a dangerous thing. Besides, if she remembered correctly, today was supposed to be his last group outing with his classmates.

Although she didn’t know if he would particularly cherish this outing...

"A floating log bridge on the water?"

Surprised, Feng Yuan observed the floating bridge encircling Shuijing Lake. The bridge was formed by floating logs, each inscribed with runes. The wind caused ripples on the water, gently shaking the bridge. True to its name, Shuijing Lake, clear and pristine, reflected the blue sky like a mirror.

"It seems kind of fun~"

The quaint log bridge did not ruin the atmosphere of Shuijing Lake. Whether it was the surrounding wooden arcades and pavilions or the traditional wooden structures faintly visible on the lake surface, everything harmonized. However, glancing at Xiao Ji, Feng Yuan wasn’t quite sure if it was really alright.

Noticing Feng Yuan looking at him, Xiao Ji shook his head, patted his chest with his wings as if to say he was fine. He chuckled and vigorously rubbed Xiao Ji’s head. Little Ice Cream, lying on top of Big Cat’s head, yawned while looking over Shuijing Lake, showing little interest in this place. After a glance at Xiao Ji, Little Ice Cream decided to give up on any idea of provoking it.

Kong Qing carried Pomiti close to the lakeside. A gust of wind, carrying a bit of moisture, made Pomiti excited, but Kong Qing didn’t allow it to move rashly. After all, they were very close to the lake’s edge and a careless slip from Pomiti might lead straight into the water.

"I’d rather not go over."

Looking at the Flower Leaf Tree Three Spirit Beasts cautiously surveying their surroundings from the crown of the Amu Tree, Qi Chen said to Feng Yuan and Dou Yanlan. At that moment, someone ahead noticed that they were still in the same spot and waved to call them over. Glancing at the three spirit beasts on the crown of the Amu Tree, Feng Yuan said,

"Why not bring them along? Now that we’re here, how can we not enjoy ourselves?"

As he spoke, Feng Yuan directly picked up the three spirit beasts. Looking down at the trio at his feet and then at Amu, Qi Chen hesitated for a moment before catching up with the others.

"I told you to get out of the way."

In the pavilion, Feng Yuan chuckled as he wiped the water droplets off Xiao Ji’s body. Even though it could simply shake off the droplets, it refused to do so, looking at Feng Yuan with a mournful expression. Xiao Ji seemed dissatisfied. Agunas glanced at Feng Yuan and said,

"Easy for you to say, how was it supposed to dodge that water balloon in its position back then?"

During the recent water balloon fight, Xiao Ji mistakenly didn’t evade and got hit squarely by a large water balloon. While Feng Yuan was drying Xiao Ji, he added,

"It could have flown up, considering there weren’t many people left in the game at that time."

Looking at Feng Yuan, Xiao Ji remained silent. Feng Yuan had been right behind it at the time, or else why wouldn’t it have flown away? Moreover, being struck by a water balloon meant elimination from the game, and Feng Yuan was having such a good time. It seemed better to let him play a little longer. Indeed, there weren’t many people left in the game by that point, or else Xiao Ji wouldn’t have been targeted.

After all, even though it hadn’t been flying earlier, it had been quite inconspicuous. At least in the beginning, no one took notice of it. It only became obvious later when there were few people left, as it was one of the few avian Spirit Beasts still in the game.

"However, Chen Xin didn’t remind us beforehand. Many people didn’t bring a change of clothes."

Looking at his thoroughly soaked classmates, Feng Yuan commented with some surprise. After all, when Chen Xin suggested this activity, he had felt it was a bit odd. They hadn’t mentioned it while at the resort, and now this sudden drenching left many soaked through. Only he had stuffed quite a few items in Kong Qing’s space, and now he had a towel to dry Xiao Ji.

At that moment, a warm wind began to blow. Feng Yuan looked around, somewhat astonished, and said,

"This... could this be Yognot’s power?"

The wind felt comfortably warm but Feng Yuan sensed something extraordinary about this hot breeze. His own clothes were drying rapidly under the influence of the wind, yet as it brushed his skin, there was no sensation of dryness.

At this moment, everyone also noticed this unique phenomenon, many were surprised to find that their clothes were drying rapidly. Chen Xin walked over and upon seeing the towel in Feng Yuan’s hand, said

"You really came prepared."

"Is this the surprise you mentioned?"

Glancing at Chen Xin, Feng Yuan mused, previously everyone had asked about the clothes, but Chen Xin just mysteriously smiled and said there would be a surprise. Now it seemed, was this the surprise?

"Exactly, don’t you think it’s interesting? This is a special feature of the Qiyun Mountain resort, and it’s a mystery how they manage to do this."

Nodding, Chen Xin said that the warm breeze felt comfortable on the skin without causing any discomfort. Scratching his head, Feng Yuan said,

"This, I don’t think it’s their doing, this must be the power of Yognot."

"Yognot’s power? That’s true, this is its territory, and this attribute does seem somewhat similar to Yognot."

Hearing Feng Yuan’s words, Chen Xin seemed to understand something. As for Yognot being here, in fact, quite a number of people were aware, although they didn’t know its specific location, everyone knew that Yognot was currently in the Cha Mu Town area. But knowing was one thing, ordinary people usually wouldn’t think of seeking it out.

After all, all the accessible information to ordinary people stated that if it awoke, the entire world would fall into permanent drought. Although the reality was slightly different, no one corrected it; the scarier it sounded, the fewer people would seek to use its power. Otherwise, there would constantly be fools trying to control Yognot, which would be real trouble.

They couldn’t change the weather for the whole world, but Yognot had the complete capability to lock the weather in the entire Cha Mu area, and even a general water-type Divine Beast couldn’t alter it.

"Using its power? Not afraid of an accident?"

Bai You sneered disdainfully, these people using Yognot’s power, weren’t they afraid it might lead to an accident that would awaken it? That would be troublesome; after all, a Yognot that had woken up would entirely change the weather, and legend has it that if it were awake for too long, the whole world would fall into eternal daylight.

"It won’t, after all, this is just its naturally diffused power, the whole Cha Mu Town area is shrouded under this power, and there’s no problem."

Shaking his head, Feng Yuan said, he could naturally sense that the warm breeze that could dry clothes originated from using runes to borrow Yognot’s diffused power. That fellow had been sleeping here for so long, its diffused power completely encompassed the Cha Mu Town area, and the region’s unique Yun tea was also born from this power.

"Would you like some snacks?"

Suddenly bringing out a snack box, Chen Xin smiled slightly and said, looking at classmates in the distance, Feng Yuan asked with some confusion,

"Is this all for today’s activity?"

"Of course not, but now is rest time."

While speaking, Chen Xin placed the opened snack box in front of Feng Yuan. Seeing Chen Xin’s expectant look at him, Bai You said with an inexplicable expression,

"She rushed to make these snacks in the kitchen before departure."

Qi Chen, who had already sensed something was amiss, naturally didn’t reach for the snacks in the box. Although he had many things he didn’t understand, he could still see the waiters coming over with trays, those trays carried various small snacks which his classmates, having just exercised, naturally didn’t decline.

And those snacks were placed on trays, not one was in a snack box. Without Bai You saying, Qi Chen could guess that those must be Chen Xin’s own doing. Knowing that Chen Xin had feelings for Feng Yuan, Qi Chen naturally didn’t want to do anything displeasing.

Under Chen Xin’s attentive gaze, picking up a piece of the snack and eating it, after a moment, Feng Yuan sighed and looked at Chen Xin saying,

"Actually, you might meet someone better than me in the future, why go through such lengths?"

"I understand, but, this is now, rather than waiting for the future, better to seize the present and live without regrets."

Smiling slightly, Chen Xin spoke with determination, aware of the other’s ultimate goal, Feng Yuan could only sigh. He might be able to help Chen Xin find a Divine Beast, perhaps she would impress one and get chosen as a Divine Pact Maker, but... would she really be happy? He couldn’t promise her anything, and if he were to help her this way... Thinking it over, Feng Yuan still gave up the thought.
