Chapter 2262 Choice

Facing the fierce behemoth behind, Li Ji almost turned around and ran upwards.

He swam in front and the giant snake chased after him.

The water flowed through his mouth and nose, and because he swam quickly, his eyes were almost unable to open by the water.

The lake monster rushed very fast, and in just a few breaths, he caught up with the distance he had been stretched before. He heard the sound of cloth tearing behind him, and Xiao Li Ji's back chilled. He turned around suddenly and saw a huge head almost reaching the tip of his nose!

hiss!

The giant snake opened its bloody mouth, and fragments of his clothes hung on the tips of his fangs.

Xiao Li Ji's blood was cold all over. But for some reason, his head was still awake when he passed by death like this.

Perhaps it was because he was so close to death half a year ago.

The giant snake bit the air for the first time, swallowed the water all over the cheeks, and spit out the water. The water flowing out of its mouth turned into a column of water, which hit Xiao Li Ji and pushed him upwards.

The lake is so close that Xiao Li Ji raised his head and could already faintly see Ying Baoyue's figure on the shore through the translucent lake water.

In panic, he couldn't see the expression on her face. It was logical that Ying Baoyue could not have noticed such a big movement at the bottom of the lake. But in the blurry field of vision, Xiao Li Ji only saw Ying Baoyue standing there in her previous posture, with her face as usual, as if she had seen nothing.

Wait, would she really not notice anything?

In the midst of a sudden death, Xiao Li Ji's mind was confused.

It was not that he deceived himself, but that Ying Baoyue's reaction was too calm. His eyes looked down at the lake as calm as before, as if he was looking at monsters in nothingness.

Even if this monster was arranged by her, if such a giant appeared in the field of vision, living people would react in some ways. But Ying Baoyue's behavior was like she couldn't see the monster.

Could it be that she really can't see it?

Ying Baoyue is a fire wizard, and this giant hidden at the bottom of the lake is undoubtedly a divine beast of water wizard, and is considered a natural enemy to the fire wizard.

It would be entirely possible if this monster used some method to make Ying Baoyue unable to detect its aura.

This thought suddenly made Xiao Li Ji's heart tremble.

When he was escaping his life, he had a question in his mind, why did this monster wake up?

In an unknown place like the Clouds and Fog Forest, it is normal for ancient gods to sleep. However, it is reasonable to say that the divine beasts sleeping in such a deep place as the bottom of the lake will not be awakened without any movement of the earth.

What awakened the ancient god?

Is it him?

Xiao Li Ji remembered it very clearly. When Ying Baoyue took him out of the formation, he said that from now on his breath will never be noticed by other powerful beings.

In other words, his small body should not have alarmed the ancient god.

Could it be...

Xiao Li Ji looked down at the sword that was constantly emitting heat in his arms, and his heartbeat accelerated.

Could it be that it was not him who awakened the giant snake at the bottom of the lake, but the Red Lotus Sword?

The next moment, as if confirming his guess, a strange noise came from behind him.

It was creaking, and a series of sharp sounds came from the mouth of the giant snake.

This giant snake was actually yelling.

Li Ji had never heard the yell of a snake before. It was logical that he could not understand it, but the series of strange sounds gradually turned into human language in his ears.

It was the voice of a hoarse old man, gritting his teeth.

"Damn Fireman!"

"Split up!"

Xiao Li Ji's scalp exploded, and it turns out that this giant snake was for the fireman!

He was almost fleeing to the shore, but looking at Ying Baoyue getting closer and closer, Li Ji felt like he was in an ice cellar.

What did he do?

He led Ying Baoyue's enemy to her?

By the time he realized this, it was too late.

He had already rushed to the shore and could not stop his momentum. With a pounce, Xiao Li Ji's head rushed out of the lake along with inertia.

Slap, snap, the lake water rolled down his hair.

Li Ji had no time to wipe the water from his face, and instinctively opened his eyes, and then saw Ying Baoyue standing on the shore.

When Ying Baoyue noticed his figure, he moved his pupils.

Xiao Li Ji opened his mouth, but he had no time to say anything.

Boom!

The next moment, the water splashed.

A huge figure followed him and was born in a panic.

A bloody mouth rose from the lake and rushed towards his body, but Xiao Li Ji floated on the lake and did not move.

At the critical moment, he noticed that Ying Baoyue's gaze did not move, but just looked at him and the splash behind him.

She really couldn't see the snake!

"A Ji?"

Ying Baoyue noticed the change in the expression on Xiao Li Ji's face, and his expression changed slightly, "You..."

Noticing that Xiao Li Ji was holding the Red Lotus Sword in his arms, she reached out to him, "Give the sword..."

Ying Baoyue couldn't finish his words.

It was almost time for him to say that, Xiao Li Ji, who had already swam to the shore, looked up at her, held the sword, and suddenly turned around and pounced into the lake with a plop!

He turned around so resolutely, without a trace of hesitation.

"A Ji?!"

Ying Baoyue was stunned at this scene and reached out to stop in the air.

The look of Xiao Li Ji looking at her when he turned around was imprinted in her eyes.

Huge splashes soared into the sky, and the entire lake was in chaos, and then gradually subsided after a moment.

Ying Baoyue stood by the lake, staring at the ripples on the lake.

This is the deepest lake in the cloud forest.

No one knows what happened in the lake.

...

...

Down, down.

A little further away, a little further away.

The moment he crawled into the water again, Xiao Li Ji didn't know what he was thinking. He obviously wanted to return to Ying Baoyue so much at the last moment, but when the giant snake chased him and rushed out of the water, there was only one thought left in his mind.

That is to leave her, the farther away, the better.

The lake water flowed through his mouth and nose, but this time, Xiao Li Ji no longer felt suffocated.

This turbid and cold lake water was so familiar to him, just like his hometown and his destination.

It is also the burial place he chose for himself.

If he will die one day, he may die in the water.

Xiao Li Ji had an inexplicable illusion. He seemed to have been soaked in such water for a long time, so long that he had forgotten it himself.

He was born in water and died in water. The water gave him everything and would take away everything from him.

Suddenly, Xiao Li Ji was no longer afraid.

Water is not scary, but it does not mean that monsters in the lake are not scary.

The fierce water flow rushed out from behind him, and Xiao Li Ji breathed a sigh of relief.

When he crawled into the lake again, he was worried that the monster would catch up. Fortunately, the giant snake seemed to be more interested in the sword in his arms than Ying Baoyue on the shore.

Seeing him turn his head and run away, the monster who was about to rush ashore roared angrily, and then returned to the lake with a swaying tail.

An unparalleled sense of oppression came from behind, and Xiao Li Ji floated in the lake and turned around quietly facing the behemoth behind him.
