The cultivator who was pulled underwater by a fish, Zhen Li was surely the first of her kind.
Fortunately, she wasn't incompetent in the water; it was just a bit embarrassing to suddenly fall in. Once submerged, she didn't let go of the fishing rod.
This was the rod she had gone to great lengths to barter for with spiritual medicine from the villagers nearby. If she lost it, she would have no means to fish thereafter.
Moreover, as a cultivator, what was there to fear from a fish underwater!
Under the water, Zhen Li could clearly see what was dragging her down— it was a large Green Snake, enormous in size but without any fluctuations of spiritual energy. It appeared to be an ordinary fish, just exceptionally robust.
"I can't defeat others, but I certainly won't be bullied by a fish."
