There were soldiers in the ships surrounding the area where the old man and the fish were fighting. They were apparently here to kill the aquatic beast that had been causing trouble in the past few months. And since this beast was also at the Nascent soul realm, the royal general of the kingdom had to come here personally.
No one else was a match for the beast. Lin Mu watched the old man fight for a while before seeing him retreat in defense.
~REEEE~
An inaudible sound wave spread from the fish that the old man had been battling. The sound wave moved through the water uninterrupted and spread in a wide area. Lin Mu narrowed his brows as he guessed what was happening.
The old man reacted quickly to and directly rose up from the water.
"RETREAT!!!! I REPEAT RETREAT!!!" The old man shouted loudly.
His words sent the soldiers into a frenzy as they quickly raised the anchors and turned their ships around.
~SWOOSH~
