If we act rashly, there's a risk of hurting Mu Qiancheng. Unsure of what to do, Jiang Xue didn't swim towards the shore as Mu Qiancheng hoped but instead turned towards the battling Mu Qiancheng.
Mu Qiancheng knew that the Water Monster was quite strong, so being far away wouldn't benefit him. Moreover, he was skilled in close combat, so he was trying to find a way to get close to the Water Monster.
However, the Water Monster was very guarded around itself and wouldn't allow Mu Qiancheng to get near. Whenever Mu Qiancheng got close, it used all its limbs to push him away.
Unable to engage closely, Mu Qiancheng was a bit annoyed and swung his military dagger towards the Water Monster's leg. Seeing Mu Qiancheng's actions, the Water Monster squinted its eyes slightly, watching him with indifference, its gaze full of contempt.
