Chapter 1069: The Superior Leader (18)
What happened just now?
No one saw anything.
Only Nie Fan knew that just now he almost… But he was suddenly hit by something.
Then he fell down, out of control.
“A-Fan.”
Hu Jiu reacted and went up to help Nie Fan up immediately. She asked worriedly, “How are you? Where did you get hurt?”
Nie Fan felt a little better seeing Hu Jiu was so concerned about him.
Hu Jiu helped Nie Fan up. There were shapeshifters all around, so Hu Jiu took a victim’s stance immediately. “Yao Luo, what exactly do you want! We have no grudge against you, why did you do this to us…”
“But now we have a grudge.”
“…”
The onlooking shapeshifters really had nothing to say, not to mention Hu Jiu.
Ming Shu made her point reasonably and there was no way to refute it.
The rule in the shapeshifter world was to do whatever you liked.
So it was really not a big deal to have a fight.
What mattered was who had won the fight.
“If you are not convinced, come and fight one more time.” Ming Shu put her machete on her shoulder and smiled arrogantly. “Will you? Anytime.”
I can do this for my little cutie!
Hu Jiu thought of the time when Ming Shu fought against the boar tribe, she took out so many of those weapons easily.
There were so many of them, how on earth had she done that?
And…
Last time she s.n.a.t.c.hed one from her, but it was taken away halfway through the battle inexplicably, and she didn’t even see clearly who it was.
“A-Fan…” Hu Jiu’s eyes reddened, tears hanging at the corners of her eyes. She sounded extremely wronged.
Faced with Hu Jiu’s tearful eyes, all Nie Fan wanted to do now was kill Ming Shu.
This woman dared make A-Jiu so sad.
“A-Jiu, don’t be scared. I’ll definitely seek justice for you,” Nie Fan comforted Hu Jiu.
“A-Jiu, A-Jiu.”
Cang Xiu ran out from nowhere. He brushed off Nie Fan and held Hu Jiu in his arms. “A-Jiu, are you all right?”
Hu Jiu’s tears kept streaming down her cheeks.
“Nie Fan, what did you do to A-Jiu!” Cang Xiu smelled the scent on Hu Jiu and glared at Nie Fan ferociously all at once.
Shouted at by Cang Xiu in this way, Nie Fan sneered. “What would I do to A-Jiu? Don’t yell randomly when you can’t figure out what’s going on.”
Nie Fan was jealous of Cang Xiu for being Hu Jiu’s mate, while Cang Xiu was wary of Nie Fan seducing Hu Jiu, so actually these two were not kind to each other.
Ming Shu bit into the dried sweet potato and cut in the conversation immediately, “It’s me, I did it, and it’s none of his business. If you have any problem, don’t hold it in, just vent on me.”
Ming Shu decided to take the blame again.
Where the hatred is, is where I will be!
“Yao Luo—”
Cang Xiu turned his head to see Ming Shu and called her, gritting his teeth.
Memories of previous humiliations came back to him.
The way Cang Xiu looked at her became more and more furious.
But Ming Shu responded to him with a clear voice. “Hey.”
Cang Xiu: “…”
[Additional Task: Gain Hatred Points from Cang Xiu.]
Ming Shu raised her eyebrows.
I have a fair and square reason to beat him up now.
Cang Xiu was about to argue with Ming Shu about why she had to bully Hu Jiu, but then the female with the machete on her shoulder suddenly moved.
She moved and brought the wind; Cang Xiu felt a figure flash past his front, then his wrist was pulled and he had to release Hu Jiu. The scene began to blur and he fell down with his back against the ground.
Cang Xiu was dazed. The next second, when he saw clearly who it was above his head, two cl.u.s.ters of angry fire began to burn in his eyes.
He supported himself on the ground with both hands and jumped up.
Boom!
Before he could stand up, he was smashed to the ground again.
“A-Xiu!” Hu Jiu shouted anxiously.
“A-Jiu, don’t come over!” Cang Xiu shouted toward Hu Jiu.
…Although Hu Jiu didn’t mean to come over.
…
When the black dog leader arrived, Ming Shu had almost beaten Cang Xiu dead. Hu Jiu shouted Cang Xiu’s name with tears, but Nie Fan pulled her to his side.
The onlooking shapeshifters didn’t have the heart to watch.
They’d seen many fights, but this kind of unilateral beating was rare to see.
“Yao Luo… Leader, what’s this about?” the black dog leader asked while knowing the answer.
“Just doing some exercise.” Ming Shu threw Cang Xiu aside, adjusted her clothes, and smiled very calmly.
The black dog leader looked at Cang Xiu and his fear of Ming Shu increased a lot. “It’s my place, Leader Yao Luo, at least give me a chance to be the host.”
Ming Shu was about to diss the black dog leader, but Ming Zhe pulled her arm and shook his head quickly.
“We have official business tomorrow, I hope we can get along in peace for now,” the black dog leader continued. “If you don’t have anything else to do here, go back and take a rest, everyone.”
The black dog leader’s official business made all the rest shut up successfully.
Ming Shu was pulled away by Ming Zhe.
She looked back at Hu Jiu and gave her a loving gesture smilingly.
Hu Jiu: “…”
Although she didn’t understand what it meant… Was this woman crazy?
Ming Zhe pulled Ming Shu back to the place where they were arranged to have a rest.
“Why did you pull me away?”
Ming Zhe’s expression was not good and his whole body even shivered.
He looked around nervously, so Ming Shu followed his sight; meanwhile, Wen Nuan was staring at them with two round eyes thirsting for knowledge. The rest of the shapeshifters were whispering to each other. Nothing else seemed strange.
“What’s wrong with Ming Zhe?” Wen Nuan asked.
These shapeshifters didn’t allow her to go over.
Ming Shu shrugged. She didn’t know, either.
After quite a long time, Ming Zhe said hesitantly, “I… I seemed to have seen the beast G.o.d just now.”
Hearing this, all the shapeshifters looked at him.
The air became silent.
Ming Shu raised her eyebrows. “Do you know what a beast G.o.d looks like? Besides, isn’t it your G.o.d? You should be happy to see it, but why are you so scared?”
“It looked just like the beast G.o.d patterns… But it seemed a little different. I don’t know how to describe it.” Ming Zhe became incoherent. “I just feel scared.”
“There were so many shapeshifters out there, but no one saw anything. How did you see it?”
“I don’t know, he… He stood in the distance… and it’s like… he flashed… I don’t know if I saw it wrong…” Ming Zhe was almost crying.
Ming Shu didn’t find anything abnormal back there.
Nie Fan suddenly fell down, but it was Little Beastie who did it…
“Okay okay, whatever. If something really has to happen, we have so many shapeshifters around us, it’s not your turn to die.”
Ming Shu comforted Ming Zhe for a while then left him to Wen Nuan.
The rest of the clansmen crowded over out of curiosity and they didn’t quiet down until a long time later.
The camp also became quiet gradually. Ming Shu sat outside the shed and looked at the lights and shadows in the distance.
…
Hu Jiu and Cang Xiu returned to the wolf pack together. Nie Fan felt worried so he also followed them there.
Nie Fan watched Hu Jiu apply the medicine to Cang Xiu and frowned. “A-Jiu, is it true that Yao Luo has been possessed by a witcher spirit?”
Hu Jiu continued her work and nodded after hearing this. “A-Xiu knew her as well, and she wasn’t like this before. She also has strange weapons with her, so I can’t think of any other reason except for a witcher spirit.”
Cang Xiu moaned in pain and didn’t deny it. “How could a female be so powerful?”
Hu Jiu bit her lip. “But it seems all the other shapeshifters are scared of her…”
