It wasn’t that Ye Siming couldn’t get rid of the seaweed.

It was just that if he were to forcefully break free, he would definitely injure this little fish demon of unknown origin.

For a moment, he hesitated and his heart softened.

If it was really Gu Nuo’er, he couldn’t hurt her.

However, in this moment of hesitation, Gu Nuo’er’s figure had already disappeared from this deep pool.

The seaweed that wrapped around Ye Siming’s limbs also unraveled one by one.

He swam up to the surface.

The sky was still covered in dark clouds, but the bean-sized raindrops had already turned into a not-too-heavy rain.

The thunder seemed to have gone far away.

Small pits were constantly formed on the surface of the deep pool from the rain.

However, Ye Siming’s gaze was extremely cold and gloomy!

On the other hand, Gu Nuo’er quickly escaped from the vicinity of the pool.

She had already returned to her original appearance.

Her clothes were clean, but her hair looked a little wet.

Her small heart was beating extremely quickly!

It was completely night time now. She walked back to Auntie Yu’s courtyard in a daze.

She saw a group of soldiers counting the number of people in each house.

When Kongjue saw that she had returned, he quickly went forward in the rain and carried the child in his arms.

The soldier asked suspiciously, “Who is this?”

“My younger sister. She’s not sick. She ran around to play just now and only came back now.”

After Kongjue finished speaking, he wiped the water off her forehead. The soldier was a little puzzled. “You’re a monk but you have family members?”

Kongjue’s tone was calm. “Before I became a monk, I also had a family.” There didn’t sound like there was anything wrong with these words.

After the soldiers completed the registration, they walked to the next house.

From the corner of her eye, Gu Nuo’er saw Censor Zhang not far away, giving instructions to Qin Song.

She quickly grabbed Kongjue with her small hand and walked into the house.

Kongjue noticed that she seemed to have been frightened and kept panting.

He quickly took a warm handkerchief and wiped Gu Nuo’er’s face.

“Nuo’er, what’s going on? Did you get scared?” Gu Nuo’er’s mind raced.

There was a moment when she was thinking.

Elder Brother Siming treated her so well, so why did she have to hide her identity from him?

However… would Elder Brother Siming eat her?

The child was extremely troubled.

She was just a small fish baby and didn’t taste good at all.

However, she had lied to Elder Brother Siming from the beginning. Now that she wanted to confess, she was afraid that he would be angry and disappointed.

The child fell into a state of conflict.

The life of a fish was extremely difficult!

She was only five years old! Why did she have to face such a difficult problem?! If she had known earlier, she would have just told Elder Brother Siming back then!

Boohoo, what should she do now?

She was told that Uncle Bai Yi was coming, so why did it become Elder Brother Siming?

Otherwise, Gu Nuo’er wouldn’t be completely caught off guard.

Ye Siming’s nose was too sharp.

Since he knew that she was here, he would look for her later.

She could choose to escape now.

However, Gu Nuo’er actually had a faint thought in her heart.

She didn’t want to lie to Elder Brother Siming anymore.

Even if Elder Brother Siming found out that she was a little fish fairy, he probably wouldn’t do anything to her…

However, the child’s mind quickly flashed. She saw the section in the Heavenly Book that introduced the demon god— “Those who see it, flee quickly.”

She poked her chubby face in distress.

It was taboo to hide things from friends.

She had done something wrong.

If she told the truth, would Elder Brother Siming forgive her?

Would he still play with her?

Would he think that she was a baddie just because she was an immortal?

After all, back then, it was a few immortal grandpas who worked together to seal him in the Asura Realm.

As for her, she was an auspicious koi transformed from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth gathered by Grandpa Heavenly Dao..
