Chapter 359 - 353: An Impromptu Visit
After the Mud Crocodile slapped the two Kaiming Beasts twice, it felt incredibly relieved!
As for those two Kaiming Beasts, they were already too stunned to retaliate.
Let alone fight back, they didn’t even dare to move a muscle.
Lin Yuan conjured up a rope and looped it around the necks of the two Kaiming Beasts, just like leading dogs on a leash.
"Tell Elder Yang, I’m going to check out that Five-Colored Tiger."
"I’ll be back soon!" Lin Yuan instructed Zhuge Ming.
Having said that, Lin Yuan took Liuyu Heaven and the two Kaiming Beasts to the Five-Colored Lake.
Just as Lin Yuan left, Yang Dingguo arrived with a group of Life Pattern Masters in tow.
Upon hearing that Lin Yuan had gone to the Five-Colored Lake, Yang Dingguo didn’t say much.
Yang Dingguo trusted Lin Yuan with his tasks.
Moreover, in Yang Dingguo’s view, no matter how formidable the master of the Five-Colored Lake was, they couldn’t possibly be a match for Lin Yuan.
With the ability of the Yellow Springs Road Tattoo, Lin Yuan’s speed was exceptionally fast.
After finding out the direction of the Five-Colored Lake, Lin Yuan used the Yellow Springs Road Tattoo’s ability and in the blink of an eye, he appeared on the outskirts of the Five-Colored Lake.
This Five-Colored Lake was a vast lake stretching over dozens of miles, with water in a peculiar mix of green, yellow, red, black, and white - just like a rainbow.
However, upon reaching the lakeside, the two Kaiming Beasts refused to go any further.
"The young master is on the Lake Heart Island, without his orders, we cannot go onto the island," the two Kaiming Beasts hesitantly said.
Hearing this, Lin Yuan handed the rope of the two Kaiming Beasts to Liuyu Heaven.
Lin Yuan instructed Liuyu Heaven, "You watch these two, I’m going to meet the master here."
Liuyu Heaven took the rope and reminded Lin Yuan again, "If you can avoid fighting, don’t fight."
"Once you start a fight, it’s hard to end it peacefully."
Clearly, Liuyu Heaven was not entirely reassured about Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan chuckled and said, "Don’t worry, I’ve got it."
"Besides, as a dignified man, I can’t bully a little girl, right?"
Liuyu Heaven: "????"
Liuyu Heaven thought, you’ve got some nerve, you’ve become the bane of the Mysterious World, whoever gets involved with you is unlucky.
Anyway, Liuyu Heaven figured, Lin Yuan probably wouldn’t end up fighting with a woman.
Before Lin Yuan could say more, he disappeared.
On the other side, Lin Yuan had already arrived at the Lake Heart Island.
The Lake Heart Island was covered with lush bamboo forests.
Amid the bamboo forest stood a bamboo house.
It seemed that the owner resided in this bamboo house.
"Is anyone here?"
"Is anyone here? Is anyone here?"
Politely intruding, Lin Yuan did not enter the bamboo house immediately but stood at the door calling out several times.
However, despite several calls, Lin Yuan received no reply.
"Could it be that the owner isn’t home?" Lin Yuan thought to himself.
With the owner not home, Lin Yuan couldn’t barge into someone else’s room uninvited.
Besides, if something were to go missing, it would be difficult to explain.
Therefore, Lin Yuan decided to take a stroll around the Lake Heart Island to admire the scenery of the Five-Colored Lake.
Thus, Lin Yuan started strolling.
It had to be said, the scenery of the Five-Colored Lake was magnificent.
Even before the Mysterious World invasion, Jiuzhaigou would only be considered a low-grade version compared to the Five-Colored Lake.
As Lin Yuan wandered, he inadvertently passed through the bamboo forest and reached the rear of the bamboo grove.
At the end of the bamboo grove, steam hung in the air.
Wait!
It didn’t seem like fog, more like steam.
In this steam, there was a faint fragrance.
Soon, Lin Yuan found the source of the steam.
It was a hot spring, with smoke rising from it.
Hot spring?
Wait a minute, could she be bathing in the hot spring?
If she were indeed bathing in the hot spring and he just walked over, even with eight mouths, he couldn’t explain himself!
Thinking of this, Lin Yuan involuntarily stepped back a few paces.
Lin Yuan, nicknamed the Honest and Trustworthy Young Lord, was a genuine gentleman.
How could he engage in such a manner of peeping at someone bathing?
With this in mind, Lin Yuan quickly hid behind a bluestone.
It didn’t take long before a head peeked out from behind the bluestone, cautiously checking the hot spring.
Although steam covered the hot spring area, if someone were bathing inside, they could still be vaguely seen.
The hot spring wasn’t large, and after scanning around, Lin Yuan realized there was no one in the hot spring at all!
Thinking of this, Lin Yuan felt somewhat disappointed.
Since there was no one around, Lin Yuan no longer saw the need to hide and stepped out boldly.
After all the sneaking around, Lin Yuan felt an urgent need to relieve himself.
Without thinking much, he aimed at the hot spring and began to urinate.
Halfway through urinating, he suddenly saw a peacock "bloop" up from the water.
Anyone who’s urinated knows that once you’re mid-process, stopping is nearly impossible.
So, even after realizing the true identity of the peacock, Lin Yuan couldn’t stop himself.
There was no other option but to finish urinating first.
Luckily, it was in peacock form now; if it were in human form, the situation would be even more awkward.
The peacock had been diving in the hot spring, so Lin Yuan hadn’t seen her earlier because she was underwater.
While the peacock played in the hot spring, Lin Yuan was urinating into it.
The two exchanged glances, and the atmosphere grew awkward.
The peacock’s eyes revealed a human-like expression.
First, there was bewilderment, then doubt, then shock, and finally, fury.
"Ah!"
"I’m going to kill you!" the peacock shouted in human speech, filled with rage.
Without a word, Lin Yuan quickly packed up and ran.
The peacock’s roar was so loud that Liuyu Heaven and the Kaiming Beasts outside the Five-Colored Lake heard it clearly.
Liuyu Heaven: "????"
Liuyu Heaven looked shocked, wondering what Lin Yuan had done to provoke such a deadly threat.
Thinking of this, Liuyu Heaven hurriedly pulled the two Kaiming Beasts and dashed towards the Lake Heart Island.
Upon hearing the young master’s shout, the two Kaiming Beasts ignored the rule of needing permission to enter the island.
Just as Liuyu Heaven and the two Kaiming Beasts reached the Seven-Color Lake, they saw a figure darting up from the Lake Heart Island.
The figure was Lin Yuan, and closely following him was another figure—the peacock.
Lin Yuan happened to bump into Liuyu Heaven and, grabbing the two Kaiming Beasts, hurled them at the peacock.
"Your pets were causing trouble on my turf, so I’m returning them to you."
"This visit was rather impromptu, let’s meet again some other day!" Lin Yuan said, tossing the two Kaiming Beasts and pulling Liuyu Heaven away.
Behind them, the peacock had already launched a blue tail feather aiming at Lin Yuan, but upon seeing the two Kaiming Beasts being thrown, it had no choice but to first catch them.
