Dragging their weary bodies, the group of youths groaned as they ran out of the yard to fetch water.
Two lazy figures leisurely walked at the back as they watched the miserable figures stagger away.
"Hungry?" Qiao Chu saw that everyone else had disappeared and only he and Jun Xie were left outside the yard before he asked.
Jun Wu Xie shook her head. She did not eat much and was not interested in eating. As long as she had enough nutrients and calories, she did not have any other thoughts. The elixirs she had brought with her had supplements and she did not feel hungry at all.
"Here, take it. Even if you don't eat it today, you can save it for another time. I don't think this will end anytime soon." Qiao Chu pulled out a packet of dried meat from his bag and stuffed it into Jun Wu Xie's hand.
Jun Wu Xie raised an eyebrow as she looked at Qiao Chu. Qiao Chu had been chattering all the way, but the clues he had revealed were the exact opposite of his usual carefree demeanor. Qiao Chu's goal from the start had been to enter the Hidden Cloud Peak, and from what he had shown, he seemed to be very familiar with the Hidden Cloud Peak. The dried meat was small in size, but it was the most suitable rations in this world. Most people would not carry it on them, but Qiao Chu seemed to have more than one packet.
Qiao Chu had hinted that he would protect her in the Hidden Cloud Peak from the start, and it seemed that Qiao Chu was not ignorant of the evil that lurked in the Hidden Cloud Peak. The dried meat must have been prepared beforehand, to deal with the torment tonight.
What was Qiao Chu's purpose in coming to the Qing Yun Clan?
Seeing that Jun Wu Xie did not take it, Qiao Chu put the dried meat back. "If you are hungry, just let me know. We don't have to carry the water, we won't be able to finish it anyway. Why don't you take a walk outside for a while? If you go back now, you will be nagged at by your seniors. "
Qiao Chu had made it clear that he did not want to be a laborer for the Hidden Cloud Peak.
"Where are you going?" Jun Wu Xie asked suddenly.
Qiao Chu was taken aback. Why was she going out on her own?
"You want me to take a walk? What about you?" Jun Wu Xie pointed out the loophole in his words.
Qiao Chu slapped his forehead in exasperation. "My brain! No wonder he is always scolded by Brother Hua! " He looked around, and after making sure there were no outsiders, he said in a low voice, "I'm going to find someone. The Hidden Cloud Peak is very dangerous, so don't run around. Once I find the person and finish talking, I'll come back for you."
From Qiao Chu's point of view, Jun Xie's tiny frame would be extremely dangerous in the Hidden Cloud Peak and he was afraid that if he was not careful, Jun Xie would be snatched away by the vicious youths.
"I'll go with you." Jun Wu Xie looked at Qiao Chu.
Qiao Chu was really taken aback.
"Are you coming with me?"
Jun Wu Xie nodded.
Qiao Chu was far more familiar with the Hidden Cloud Peak than she was. Regardless of Qiao Chu's origins, he was not an ally of the Qing Yun Clan. If their objectives did not clash, she would not mind using him to familiarize herself with the Hidden Cloud Peak.
Qiao Chu was put in a difficult position. He looked at Jun Xie and hesitated a moment before he said: "Alright, but you have to promise me that no matter what you see, you will not make a sound."
Bringing her along would be a good idea. Leaving her alone in this dangerous place would not be a good idea.
It was obvious that Qiao Chu had misunderstood Jun Wu Xie and saw her as a weak and frail looking youth. He had completely forgotten about Jun Wu Xie's vicious beating earlier in the day.
