Fairy, Don't Be Afraid, I Am Blind

Chapter 186 - 134: Carp Spirit; Entering the Pool

This little white fish seemed like the offspring of the white dragon carp, only half the size of a palm, entirely snow-white, yet its round eyes were distinctly black.

It wasn’t just You Su who noticed this fish; the keen-eyed elder also discovered this entirely white little creature amidst the organs.

Mr. Yu’s face was somewhat solemn. He carefully parted the white dragon carp’s internal organs, wanting to grasp the little white fish in his hand, but when he reached out his palm, he caught nothing.

The little white dragon carp actually soared into the air, evading Mr. Yu’s reaching hand!

You Su watched all this in horror. Since coming to the Divine Mountain, he hadn’t seen anything without opening his eyes for a long time. What he could see directly—were only evil spirits.

But this little white carp was pure and flawless, exceptionally lively. Could it also be an evil spirit?

The little white carp seemed to take the sky as water, its tiny fins as wings, freely wandering and swimming at will in midair, leaving the three onlookers shocked.

With a "thud," Mr. Yu suddenly knelt, opened his trembling hands, and continuously worshipped the little white carp.

The corpse of the big white dragon carp lay right before him, its crimson blood seeping onto the deck, flowing all the way to Mr. Yu’s hand. Mr. Yu looked at the blood on his hands in terror, mumbling words of sincere repentance.

The little white carp remained suspended above the "mother" corpse, its small tail constantly swaying, as if quietly observing the guilt-ridden elder.

But You Su, standing behind the elder, knew clearly that the little white carp was watching him.

"Grandpa, it’s just a fish. Even if it can fly, there’s no need to kneel to it."

Even though Xiaoyu was seeing such an extraordinary fish for the first time, he felt more awe than fear.

Mr. Yu, however, ignored him and continued worshipping for a long time, while the little white carp remained still in the air, without moving.

The wrinkles on the elder’s face tightly knitted together. He couldn’t understand why this legendary divine fish hadn’t forgiven him yet. Suddenly, he seemed to have figured something out, urgently turning his head to say:

"Mr. Xu! Quick! Hurry to kneel and pray to the Water God! We hurt it! If we don’t repent soon, the Water God will bring about a great disaster!"

Was the Water God Mr. Yu referred to this little white carp?

You Su quietly extended his hand into his clothes again, gripping the Exorcism Order. The cold touch told him this airborne spirit fish wasn’t an evil spirit.

But if it’s not an evil spirit, why could he suddenly see it? Was there something wrong with the Exorcism Order, or with this fish?

Even the Exorcism Order that couldn’t be concealed by Dream-eating Ghosts and Taisui, could this fish evade it?

And just as he hesitated, the little white dragon carp swiftly swam towards You Su!

Its sinuous tail wildly flailing, cutting a white line through You Su’s dark view.

You Su raised his sword to stop it, the Ink Sword chimed, determined to slice the white fish into two.

Mr. Yu watched in terror, unable to utter "no" before the little white carp’s body was split in two.

But who knew, a mutation happened again! The fish seemed insubstantial, the sword merely causing its body to briefly split apart, then quickly reuniting, charging straight into You Su’s chest.

Everything happened too suddenly for You Su and Xiaoyu to react in time to stop it, yet strangely, the moment the little white carp touched You Su’s body, it vanished!

Fearing something amiss, You Su hurriedly groped the spot where the white fish vanished, but not only did he not find anything, he didn’t feel any peculiar sensation even at the moment of collision, as if the fish never existed.

Mr. Yu looked at You Su in disbelief, lips trembling, trying to perform a salute.

You Su, full of questions with no answers, quickly supported the elder, saying: "Elder, why are you doing this? Please get up."

Mr. Yu stubbornly remained kneeling, and seeing this, You Su had no choice but to use some force, forcibly pulling Mr. Yu up, saying:

"Elder, there’s no need for this. Please tell me, what exactly happened?"

Mr. Yu glanced at You Su, as if afraid to look directly, quickly lowering his head, saying:

"Mr. Xu, I’m sorry to you..."

You Su’s curiosity deepened, "What do you mean, elder?"

"Mr. Xu, you don’t know... Have you ever seen a fish hidden inside another fish?"

You Su was momentarily stunned, only then realizing the peculiarity. Fish reproduce through eggs, so how could a small white carp already in fish form be inside the white dragon carp’s belly?

"Not only have I never seen, but I’ve never even heard of such a thing," You Su replied.

Mr. Yu then withdrew his hand, saying apologetically:

"That’s because it’s a true divine fish. That’s why there wasn’t a single fish egg inside this large white dragon carp’s belly, because this fish wasn’t born through white dragon carp mating; it was transformed by this white dragon carp absorbing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi. You could say, this is the fish soul of the white dragon carp."

You Su was slightly astonished, finding it hard to imagine a mere fish being associated with the concept of a soul.

Mr. Yu continued: "This white dragon carp isn’t just a top-grade spirit fish; it’s rumored that they can cultivate like immortals, transforming into the legendary water-controlling dragons at the pinnacle of cultivation, which is why they’re called white dragon carps. But even we old fishermen have almost forgotten this ancient legend, and today, we witnessed a white carp about to turn into a dragon!"

"You mean to say, having a fish soul indicates this fish is about to transform into a dragon?"
