"You … You …" Hearing Yi Yun's arrogant words, the youth's face turned green. He angrily said, "This is food bestowed by the Jin Long Wei. How can you … How can you …"
Before the youth finished his sentence, Yi Yun laughed.
Sun Jingrui laughed along with him.
Including the other Jin Long Wei warriors, they all laughed. This was a merciless mockery.
"This silly kid sure is of the highest quality," Sun Jingrui said with a smile.
The young man was dumbfounded. He finally realized that he had just said something ridiculous.
Yi Yun stopped smiling and said coldly, "If you want a share of the food, sure. Eat all the cow dung that was thrown into my sister's house and I'll share it with you."
The faces of the children who had followed the youth to throw the cow dung changed. "Your house was burned. The cow dung … the cow dung was also burned!"
A child said.
Yi Yun impatiently looked at the child, "There's plenty of dung in the village. You can find it anywhere."
"You … You …" The youth gritted his teeth. He understood that Yi Yun was here to mess with him!
He had never planned on sharing the food with them, but they had humiliated him in public!
He was filled with extreme hatred. The way he looked at Yi Yun was filled with endless hatred.
He knew he could not beat Yi Yun, so he cursed Yi Yun and his family.
Yi Yun frowned. Before he could say a word, Liu Tie had leaped up.
"F * * k you, little bastard, what are you staring at! I'll dig out your eyeballs. "
Liu Tie punched the youth in the face, causing his eyes to swell. Following that, Liu Tie grabbed the youth's hair and punched him again, causing his nose to bleed.
Liu Tie was ruthless. The youth was older than Tao Yunxiao, so there was no need for him to show mercy. People in the village married early. A fifteen-year-old youth would be married in a year or two.
Liu Tie punched and kicked, causing the youth to scream in pain, crying for his parents! The youth's grandfather, an elder of the Lian tribal clan, looked livid, but he did not dare to stop Liu Tie.
He had to pay for what he had done. Back then, this youth was the village's thug. He brought a group of subordinates and flaunted his prowess. Those who disobeyed his discipline would surround them and beat them to death. Some little girls were taken advantage of by them and bullied badly, but there was no one to complain.
Yi Yun ignored all of this. He suddenly realized that sometimes, it wasn't bad to have a lackey.
Seeing that everything was almost settled, Yi Yun jumped onto the near-horned beast and said to Liu Tie, "Look after the rations. I'll be back in an hour to distribute them!"
When Liu Tie heard this, he was instantly excited. This was the first time Yi Yun had given him an order!
Sometimes, people could be so cheap. Liu Tie was one of them, fighting to be a slave. He immediately patted his chest and promised that he would complete the task.
Yi Yun bade Sun Jingrui farewell and left on the near-horned beast.
His destination, of course, was the back mountain. He was going to pick up Jiang Xiaorou!
For some unknown reason, just as Yi Yun was preparing to go to the back mountain, he suddenly felt uneasy. This uneasiness made Yi Yun frown …
He pulled on the reins and sped up!
The near-horned beast stirred up a cloud of dust as it ran towards the back mountain of the Lian tribal clan!
Seeing Yi Yun leave, the people of the Tao tribal clan had mixed feelings, especially those who had previously ridiculed Yi Yun or bullied Jiang Xiaorou. Their faces were extremely ugly at this moment.
They were hoping that Yi Yun would not remember these matters, but from the looks of it, Yi Yun remembered every single stroke clearly!
The Jin Long Wei's rations were not only for the Lian tribal clan, it was also for Yi Yun to settle scores.
…
Lian tribal clan. Back mountain.
The weather in the mountains was always colder than in the village. It was late winter, so other than the fast-flowing East River, the springs in the back mountain of the Lian tribal clan had frozen. The ground was covered with thick leaves, like a carpet.
But among these leaves, there were tall evergreen trees that were extremely lush, blocking out the blue sky.
On a hidden evergreen tree, someone had built a simple treehouse. Although it was cold outside, the treehouse was as warm as spring. Because of the Chi Lin beast's desolate bones, it constantly emitted rich fire-elemental energy.
In the treehouse, a fifteen-year-old girl sat barefooted by the window. Her two hands held her sharp chin as she looked out of the treehouse in a daze …
It was the sixteenth day …
It had been sixteen days since Yi Yun left. Jiang Xiaorou was counting the days. She did not know how Yi Yun was doing.
These days, Jiang Xiaorou had nothing to do. Yi Yun had instructed her not to go out, so she usually stayed in the treehouse.
After all, be it a wild beast or a member of the Lian tribal clan warrior preparation camp, it would be extremely dangerous if Jiang Xiaorou were to bump into them.
So all Jiang Xiaorou could do every day was to keep watch.
She was in the wooden house, watching the narrow sky outside the window. She looked at the hundred-year-old ancient trees and the unchanging boulders in the mountains.
As the sun rose and set, Jiang Xiaorou would see the boulders covered in a thin layer of frost every morning. At noon, the frost would turn into steam, and at night, the moonlight would shine on the boulders …
Jiang Xiaorou could only wait, and wait.
Day after day, she sat alone, waiting anxiously. Sometimes, Jiang Xiaorou would dream of a bad scene, and suddenly wake up.
It was noon …
A rare warm winter sun shone on Jiang Xiaorou's face through the gaps in the forest.
Under the sunlight, Jiang Xiaorou's silky hair shimmered with a faint golden light.
Suddenly, there was a soft sound. A squirrel scurried up the treehouse and stopped at the window.
Seeing the furry squirrel, Jiang Xiaorou revealed a rare smile.
This was a companion she had accidentally discovered. Due to excessive hunting, there were very few animals in the Lian tribal clan's back mountains.
With such a companion around, Jiang Xiaorou was able to relieve a lot of her loneliness. She fed the little guy grains and corn, so it often came to beg for food.
Jiang Xiaorou scattered some corn kernels. She wrapped her arms around her slender legs and quietly watched the little guy eat.
The little guy ate very quickly. Its cheeks were bulging, but it was very alert. It would occasionally look up at its surroundings.
Looking at this cute little guy, Jiang Xiaorou felt slightly at ease.
"Yun 'er's selection should be over."
Jiang Xiaorou sighed and looked out the window, "I wonder how his results are … Yun 'er's strength has improved a lot these days, but the Kingdom's selection is filled with experts. Just from the small tribes near the Tao tribal clan, there are dozens of them. None of them are smaller than the Lian tribal clan … And that Tao tribal clan is a behemoth … "
Jiang Xiaorou was very worried for Yi Yun. She did not expect Yi Yun to pass the selection and become rich.
But she knew that Lian Chengyu would most likely become a Jin Long Wei. If Yi Yun did not become a Jin Long Wei, then he would lose the Jin Long Wei's protection. He might even be assassinated by Lian Chengyu!
When that happened, Yi Yun would be in danger.
Every time she thought of this, Jiang Xiaorou became very worried.
Although Jiang Xiaorou grew up in the Great Wilderness, she did not believe in God. However, she had not believed in God for the past ten days. She prayed for Yi Yun to pass the selection. She prayed for a miracle and prayed for Yi Yun to pass the selection.
These days. It was hard to bear.
Just as Jiang Xiaorou was lost in thought, the little guy who was chewing on the corn suddenly put down his favorite food. He stood up and looked around alertly. He stopped chewing, but his cheeks were still bulging. His black eyes were filled with wariness.
Jiang Xiaorou's heart skipped a beat. What happened?
She concentrated and heard a loud "rumbling" sound. It was as if a huge beast was running in the mountains.
The little squirrel was frightened. With a "whoosh", he hid behind Jiang Xiaorou. The little squirrel had trusted Jiang Xiaorou for the past few days.
Jiang Xiaorou stood up. The sound became louder and louder. Clearly, the huge beast was approaching.
"Could it be …"
Jiang Xiaorou's heart skipped a beat. She moved to the window and looked out. She saw many trees in the forest shaking violently. Clearly, a huge beast was approaching.
Jiang Xiaorou held her breath.
About ten seconds later, Jiang Xiaorou finally saw a two-story tall beast pass through the forest and appear in front of her.
She saw a handsome youth standing on the back of the huge beast. In the luxuriant forest, the youth's eyes were like stars, and he was handsome! His fresh and extraordinary facial features clearly formed a face that Jiang Xiaorou was very familiar with.
"Yun … Yun-er?"
Jiang Xiaorou could not believe it. The youth in front of her was Yi Yun!?
"Sis Xiaorou!"
After so many days, seeing Jiang Xiaorou again, Yi Yun's heart was in turmoil. Seeing Jiang Xiaorou safe and sound, Yi Yun was very happy. He was really afraid that Jiang Xiaorou had met with an accident.
There was a terrible pain in this world. That was when you achieved an extreme achievement, but the only person who shared your achievement with you was no longer around.
That was a kind of extreme loneliness.
In this world, Yi Yun only had Jiang Xiaorou as his family. Only Jiang Xiaorou could share his success and joy with him.
Yi Yun hoped that Jiang Xiaorou could always watch him. She wanted to see him become a Kingdom Knight, be conferred the title of Minister, and even become a human sage!
For some unknown reason, when Yi Yun rode the huge beast to the back mountain, he suddenly had a very uneasy feeling. He was worried that something had happened to Jiang Xiaorou. Only when he saw Jiang Xiaorou did this feeling subside.
But, Yi Yun still felt uneasy.
He jumped onto the treehouse, causing the treehouse to shake. Then, without any explanation, Yi Yun hugged Jiang Xiaorou tightly.
It was as if he would lose Jiang Xiaorou if he let go.
"Sis Xiaorou, I'm back!"
Yi Yun's nose felt sour. He did not know why he had that feeling.
Regardless of where the feeling came from, Yi Yun swore that he would protect Jiang Xiaorou for the rest of his life.
In Yi Yun's embrace, Jiang Xiaorou's beautiful eyes were filled with tears. "Yun-er, it's good that you're back. It's good that you're back …"
Hugging Yi Yun, Jiang Xiaorou's heart was filled with satisfaction. (To be continued)
