Elder Ying looked at Jun Wu Xie in incomprehension.
Jun Wu Xie's gaze fell casually upon the calm surface of the water. Blossoms of lily floated upon lily leaves upon the surface and suddenly, a white spot rose up to the surface, sending a ripple outwards.
It was a red koi, flipped over with its belly up on the water's surface, no longer breathing.
Elder Ying's eyes widened and as he watched, the koi in the pond floated up to the surface one after another, showing their bellies, killed soundlessly.
"What….. What is happening?" Elder Ying said as he pointed at the dead koi in the water, his face incredulous. The pond was looking perfectly fine and Jun Wu Xie had merely poured out that teapot, why…..
Jun Wu Xie looked at the dead koi and the corners of her mouth lifted. "Looks like you were all wrong."
