Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a person!
The night was deep, and the roars of beasts and howls of wolves could be heard from time to time in the forest, which was quite frightening.
Suddenly, the person in the water stood up abruptly, with long black hair reaching their waist and cascading down in front of them. Because they had just stood up from the water, they were not yet steady on their feet and staggered a few steps before finally regaining their footing.
The person was wearing a sheer white dress, which clung tightly to their body after being soaked by water, revealing their captivating and graceful figure.
If it weren't for the long hair covering her face and her stiff body, it would truly be a beautiful scene under the moon.
The man walked stiffly toward the shore. Suddenly, his knees buckled, and he took a step forward, then fell to the ground with a thud.
That person wasn't actually human; was he a zombie?
The "zombie" on the ground remained frozen for a long time before a gust of wind blew by, and then the "zombie" suddenly shivered.
Then, the "zombie" actually sat up on the shore, violently brushed the long hair off its face with its right hand and pulled it behind its back, cursing for a while before standing up.
The "zombie" was pale, and having been submerged in water for so long, its skin was swollen and torn. Its tattered clothes and scattered bloodstains further enhanced its terrifying appearance.
But looking further at that face, one can't help but be taken aback.
This person was actually Feng Fei.
Feng Fei shuddered, completely unaware of how terrifying he looked.
Having just reached the shore, Feng Fei circulated his jade-gold spiritual energy to expel the chill from his body, but the dampness remained. Thinking this, Feng Fei sat back down on the ground, his mind still replaying everything that had happened.
Just as she was about to attack the person emerging from the passage, the Water Moon Cave suddenly began to shake violently. She then fell unconscious, only to awaken floating on the waters of Mochou Lake. She wondered how Yuan Jue and the others were doing.
With a troubled heart, Feng Fei forced himself to endure.
After a while, Feng Fei stood up, looked down, and saw his disheveled appearance.
With a grin, Feng Fei ran to the lake and looked around, almost startled by his own reflection.
Because of the incompatibility between water and fire spiritual energies within her body, Feng Fei's skin had already cracked. Although the terrible cracks healed with the formation of the jade-gold spiritual energy, the scabs still remained. Furthermore, due to being soaked in the lake water, some areas peeled off, revealing the tender white skin underneath, while others stubbornly clung to her face.
She hurriedly scooped up some water and washed her face, but then suddenly felt that her body was sticky and uncomfortable.
Feng Fei carefully looked around and saw that there was no one around. He gritted his teeth and found a shallow beach with huge rocks on both sides to wash himself.
Before long, a beautiful woman, as pure as a lotus flower, appeared under the moonlight.
Her jade-white, translucent body appeared even more radiant in the moonlight, while her long, black, silk-like hair gently cascaded over her shoulders, giving her an alluring and seductive charm.
However, before anyone could take a closer look, Feng Fei quickly put on his undergarments, but then suddenly became conflicted.
The storage ring contained only gorgeous and expensive clothes; there wasn't a single ordinary garment suitable for her to wear as a married woman.
After thinking for a moment, Feng Fei simply washed off the disguise from his face, reapplied an even more alluring look, and then took out a brocade robe to put on. He tied his long hair into a bun, took out a jade hairpin, and inserted it into his hair, and a peerless handsome young man appeared.
Feng Fei admired himself by the lake for a while before taking out other, more elaborate disguises and beginning to describe the details in front of a small mirror.
By the time Fengfei had finished everything, the east side was beginning to lighten with the first light of dawn.
Looking in the mirror, Feng Fei smiled and proudly raised his head.
Suddenly, Feng Fei, her face filled with worry, put the mirror away. She had been by the lake for so long without hearing any other voices, and she wondered if Yuan Jue and the other two had come out. Could they have been suppressed into the Water Moon Cave?
Thinking of this, Feng Fei became even more anxious. Suddenly, Feng Fei remembered that she and Xue Tuan could communicate telepathically.
"Snowball? Snowball..."
After calling out several times without any response, Feng Fei had no choice but to give up in despair. She wanted to go back to the Water Moon Cave to search, but she didn't know how to get in or out, so she had to abandon the idea.
We should first take a look into the city; perhaps they have already returned.
Thinking of this, Feng Fei became even more anxious and, disregarding everything else, hurriedly rushed towards Mochou City.
Mochou Lake is not far from Mochou City. Before long, Fengfei saw the magnificent and imposing Mochou City.
Feng Fei couldn't help but show a happy expression. Da Bao and Xiao Bao were still at Binrugui Inn. Perhaps Yuan Jue had returned early to treat Xiao Bao's illness.
However, the sorrow in her brows revealed that her heart was not as indifferent as it appeared.
Feng Fei quickened his pace and soon arrived at the city gate.
The city gates of Mochou City are always closed during the day. There are three gates, two small and one large. The main gate is not usually opened; only the two side gates are open for people to enter and exit.
It was still early, and there weren't many people coming and going. Most of the guards were drowsy and sleepy.
Feng Fei didn't pay much attention to the people around him. With Yuan Jue and the others in mind, he walked towards the city gate without thinking.
Before they even entered the city gate, they were stopped.
"Young master, where are you going?" A man with slicked-back hair and a powdered face suddenly stopped beside Feng Fei on horseback. He twirled a gold-threaded crocheted fan in the air and then flicked it toward Feng Fei's chin.
Feng Fei slightly turned her head to avoid the man's harassment. She was now dressed as a man, but she still got into trouble.
Frowning, he glanced at the people around him. Some hurried away with their heads down, while others remained to watch the spectacle. The city guards behind him also watched the commotion with mocking expressions, showing no intention of stepping forward to help.
Taking a small step back, just as Feng Fei was about to dismiss these people, the纨绔 (wan ku, a spoiled young man) spoke up again.
"Is the young master shy?" Then, he jumped off his horse.
Seeing this person getting closer, Feng Fei thought that he shouldn't reveal his strength and cause trouble for no reason, but he couldn't help but be teased by this person for no reason.
What bad luck! Could it be that I've run into someone with homosexual tendencies? Or should I blame myself for pretending to be a monstrous man?
Just as Feng Fei was secretly annoyed and about to lose his temper, another man in a brocade robe suddenly appeared from the side.
Before Feng Fei could even get a good look at the person, he was pulled behind him.
"How dare you lot lay a finger on my young master?" the man roared furiously, his eyes blazing with fury. Only Yuan Jue and he were allowed to lay a finger on Feng Fei. Yes, that was exactly right!
The person who arrived was none other than Jin Ming, who had secretly followed Feng Fei and Yuan Jue.
The slick-haired, powdered-faced playboy was taken aback, not expecting that this handsome young man who had come alone would have servants. Glancing sideways, the playboy noticed that the man leading the spear was also quite handsome, and his heart immediately began to pound.
"Hey, your young master is not bad, and you are not bad either!" He then moved closer to Jin Ming, a disgusted expression on his face, and stuck out his tongue, as if he wanted to lick Jin Ming's cheek.
Jin Ming felt extremely disgusted and retreated with Feng Fei. Then, with a wave of his right hand, a cloud of dust was scattered out with the movement of his sleeve.
Relying on his cultivation level, this spoiled brat showed no sign of backing down and instead charged forward, completely unaware of the wicked smile on Jin Ming's face.
The playboy approached Jin Ming and Feng Fei with a smug look on his face, just as he was about to take another step closer to the two beauties, when suddenly his expression changed!
He discovered that his spiritual energy seemed to be suppressed, and then he felt an itch all over his body. The first place to itch was his cheek, and the playboy couldn't help but scratch it, only to tear off a handful of flesh, which terrified him. But the itching and pain all over his body was unbearable.
Before long, under the influence of this combination of itching, pain, and fear, the纨绔 (wan ku, a spoiled brat) ended up defecating and urinating.
The onlookers dispersed.
The spoiled young master's attendants had no choice but to step forward, their minds filled with questions. Their master had been perfectly fine just moments before, but after the man opposite them waved his hand, he froze in place, then began scratching himself erratically, even taking off his clothes and rubbing against the city wall. He had truly disgraced the city lord's mansion.
While the city gate was in chaos, Jin Ming and Feng Fei slipped into Mochou City when no one was paying attention.
How did you get here?
"This..." Jin Ming stammered for a long time without coming up with a coherent answer. Finally, his face turned red, and he said stiffly, "Where is Yuan Jue? I need to talk to him!"
Feng Fei, however, wasn't buying it. With a stern face, she said, "The truth!"
Jin Ming's handsome face fell, he twisted his sleeves with both hands, and occasionally gave Feng Fei a wink before saying haltingly, "Well, right, I, um, was bored! Ah, no, I had something to discuss with Yuan Jue..."
In the end, there was no truth to be told. Feng Fei rolled his eyes, flicked his sleeves, and headed towards Binrugui Inn.
Jin Ming followed behind, knowing that Feng Fei's reaction meant he wouldn't ask why he had come, and his face immediately lit up with a smug smile of triumph.
As soon as they stepped into the Binrugui Inn, Feng Fei rushed into her room, with Jin Ming following closely behind.
"Bang!"
Feng Fei opened the door with great force, but only saw the Li family's two children.
Da Bao sat at the table eating his meal with a distressed expression, while Xiao Bao remained lying on the bed, looking half-dead.
Thinking that Xiao Bao had not yet received treatment, Feng Fei sighed inwardly, suppressing his worries for Yuan Jue, Xue Tuan, and Ming Feng, and pulled Jin Ming aside, saying, "Let's take a look at Xiao Bao first. It seems that the brothers cannot get wet, and Xiao Bao has been soaking in Mochou Lake for most of the night."
Jin Ming knew about the Li family's two children and was familiar with their sect, but he had never studied the physical constitution of the sect's members. He had always been extremely curious about this, and this time his wish had truly been fulfilled.
Without hesitation, Jin Ming stepped forward to take Xiao Bao's pulse.
A moment later, a strange smile appeared on Jin Ming's face.
Feng Fei stepped forward anxiously and asked, "How is it?"
"Has Yuanjue examined this before?"
"Um."
"Let's wait until he gets back!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jin Ming rushed out. He saw that Feng Fei's face suddenly filled with anger.
He couldn't withstand Feng Fei's wrath, but he could avoid it.
Watching Jin Ming slip away faster than a rabbit, Feng Fei didn't know whether to laugh or be angry.

Jin Ming slipped away, but she couldn't just leave without a care.
With a barely perceptible sigh, Feng Fei turned and walked to Da Bao, who was standing to the side with a look of fear on his face. He said softly, "Don't worry. You can tell from Jin Ming's appearance that Xiao Bao is not seriously injured. He just needs to wait for Yuan Jue to come back."
In the end, Feng Fei suddenly became dejected.
Because Yuanjue has not returned to this day, and we don't know where he is.
Thinking that she was still comforting Da Bao, Feng Fei immediately put on a smile again: "You take good care of Xiao Bao first, Yuan Jue should be back soon."
Before he could finish speaking, a familiar voice came from behind him.
