"A… a Second-Tier Cyan Scale Demon!?"
Tang Jingtiao's body went rigid.
"How is that possible?" Xu Heng was horrified.
"The… the Demon Fiend we were hunting… is actually… Second-Tier?" Lv Yan said in disbelief.
Liang Tianpeng swallowed hard, his gaze flickering. "Where was it before?"
"The Yunmushan Reservoir!?"
Chen Donghe blurted out, "It was hiding in the reservoir this whole time?"
Gu Zheng didn't say anything, merely popping another Rejuvenation Pill into his mouth.
'I'm about eighty percent sure Chen Donghe is right,' he thought.
'The Second-Tier Cyan Scale Demon was hiding… no, it must have submerged itself in the Yunmushan Reservoir, using the water pressure to cultivate?'
'If that's the case, then the Thunder Sound Seeds blowing up the cliff and bursting the reservoir wasn't just to flood the three counties of Divine Water, Xuanhe, and Cold Yin as a threat or an act of fury.'
'It was also meant to awaken this Second-Tier Cyan Scale Demon!'
