Chapter 1706: Meddling
However, the woman shut her mouth and refused to say another word.
They searched around several times, but could not find any clues, so they had to leave in a hurry with the tied-up woman.
After everyone left for a while, Xi Yue and the rest jumped down from the tree.
As soon as Little Nuo landed, she cried softly and fell to the ground, shouting “Mother” incessantly.
The Little Red Bird perched in front of her, chirping, “Stop crying. Wasn’t it just kidnapped by a group of mortals? I will accompany you to rescue her.”
The Little Red Bird spoke with great bravado, but when it looked up and met Wei Zhi’s mocking gaze, its feathers quivered. Remembering its pathetic state of being unable to defeat even a slightly larger mountain eagle, it immediately shrunk.
What a stupid place. There’s no spiritual power or beastkin power. I’m the divine bird, and yet I can even spit out fireb.a.l.l.s. If the other divine beasts get to know about it, I will become a laughingstock among them.
Little Red Bird coughed and said again, “Ev… even if I’m not enough, you have your master here? Don’t worry, your master is powerful, and she will beat up those bad people.”
Little Nuo wiped her tears, stood up, and said to Xi Yue, “Master, let’s go.”
“Are you not going to save your mother?” Little Nuo shook her head, streaming down her face uncontrollably, “Master, the people of our tribe hate outsiders. If you go there, they will surely attack you, and there are so many of them… Master, I don’t want to harm you! But I can’t just abandon my mother either, so I want to go back by myself.”
Xi Yue crossed her arms and said calmly, “You want to sacrifice yourself to save your mother.”
Little Nuo nodded firmly, “Master, I have already decided. You don’t need to persuade me otherwise anymore. Thank you for your willingness to teach me during this period and for accepting me as your disciple. If there is an afterlife, I hope to be your disciple again.”
Xi Yue nodded and said in a calm tone, “Well, I don’t plan to change your mind…”
Before she finished speaking, her hand moved like lightning. Several fine green wooden thorns stung Little Nuo.
Little Nuo’s body shook twice and then fell to the ground with a thud.
Xi Yue then finished what she just said, “Because what I don’t like the most is wasting time with my words.”
“Weizhi, carry the person on your back. Little Red Bird, lead the way.”
The boy leaning on the tree trunk not far away didn’t say anything. He quickly came over and grabbed the little girl’s collar and picked her up like a sack.
Little Red Bird chirped in dissatisfaction as a protest against its name, then flew into the sky obediently and went toward the direction where the group left just now.
Xi Yue had never liked to meddle in other people’s business.
However, Little Nuo was her recipe. Secondly, she urgently needed the paG.o.da power, which was other people’s grat.i.tude. Judging from the message she heard from the tree, Little Nuo’s village must have suffered some kind of disaster.
Of course, she ideally wanted to grasp the opportunity to increase her favorability and gain some of the paG.o.da power.
…
Cangda Tribe.
This was a hillside close to dense forests, with countless stone houses built at the foot of the mountain, the mountainside, and the top of the mountain.
Behind the hills lay the long river, known as the Naven River. The waters of the Naven River were clear, and the flora along its banks was lush and vibrant as if br.i.m.m.i.n.g with vigorous vitality.
Logically, situated in such a land, nestled against the mountains and near the water, the Cangda Tribe should be quite fortunate.
However, the Cangda Tribe was filled with a bleak and desolate sense of despair.
The small stone cabins were filled with a pervasive, nauseating stench of decay, accompanied by the low moans of children and the pained cries of women.
