While everyone was immersed in grief, AâMang secretly asked Nan Xun, âAâXi, do you really have a way to save them? Will it cost you a lot with your witchery?â
The corner of Nan Xunâs mouth twitched violently when she heard the word âwitchery.â
As long as she said it, AâMang would believe her every word.
âAâMang, I lied to them just now. I have no way to save them yet,â Nan Xun replied.
AâMang pursed his lips, and his expression suddenly became dignified. It wasnât known whether he was thinking that Nan Xun was hiding a secret or something else.
Suddenly, he suggested, âWhen itâs dark, Iâll secretly kill and burn those who are infected so the disease wonât spread.â
The manâs expression was very serious, he definitely wasnât joking.
Little Eight: âFuck, ying ying ying, Iâm scared to death. This savage is so cruel that he could easily kill people.â
Nan Xun comforted him, âIn ancient times, peopleâs desires and thoughts are directly revealed on their faces. I think AâMang is straightforward and so cute.â
Little Eight: âŠ
Nan Xun didnât let AâMang do such a thing. She didnât want AâMang to have so many murders on his back, which would be a curse for future generations.1
Nan Xun focused her attention on Little Eight and asked, âDo you have any pills to cure the plague?â
Little Eight became guarded immediately. âWhy? Do you want me to save these people? Let me tell you, thatâs impossible. The pills are limited and itâs not something we can intervene in.â
Nan Xun didnât bother Little Eight anymore. She suddenly gave an easygoing smile. âLittle Eight, you reminded me that these are indeed things we canât intervene in, but Chuxue can. She must have a way.â
âAâMang, letâs go! Go to my former tribe.â
The cannibal tribe craned their necks to watch the fire-breathing bird carry away the man and woman until they became a small speck in the sky.
âDo you think AâXi is really a witch? Will she really save us?â one of them suddenly asked.
Everyone was silent.
If this disease was really caused by AâXi, why would she save them?
Who said that one who can control beasts must be a witch, she may also be an envoy of the god Uto2 who brought humanity harvests and happiness ah! That strange bird could spew fire and wasnât a man-eating beast, it may be a divine beast ah!3
The clanâs expressions suddenly changed from suspicion and hatred into awe when thinking of this.
God Uto! AâXi wasnât a witch, she was an envoy of the god Uto who brought harvests and happiness!
ââââ-
When Big Grey arrived at Chuxueâs tribe, it wasnât as lucky as before. Before it could land, the men in the tribe began to shoot at it with bows and arrows.
Big Grey was so angry that it was about to open its beak to spew fire at the tribe, but Nan Xun quickly appeased it.
Nan Xun stood up and AâMang held her legs in time so she wouldnât fall off from being unbalanced.
âChuxue, itâs me! Iâm AâXiââ Nan Xun shouted to the tribe. âChuxue, Iâm looking for you because itâs urgentââ
After that, Nan Xun had Big Grey land in an open space outside the tribe.
Soon after, Chuxue and AâYu led 30 to 40 warriors out.
Seeing AâXi, Chuxue couldnât hide her joy. After she said something to the guarded AâYu, she couldnât wait to run towards Nan Xun. âAâXi, I missed you very much! How are you doing with the cannibal tribe?â
Nan Xun didnât have time to reminisce with Chuxue. Instead, she quickly explained the purpose of her visit.
Chuxue was very surprised. âAâXi, are you talking about the plague? The plague broke out in our tribe some time ago, but I found a kind of grass root that can cure it so all the infected were treated. I thought it was only our tribe that was infected with it, could the other tribesâŠâ
Nan Xun nodded. âI suspect that all the nearby tribes are infected with this plague. Most of the cannibals died. Iâm afraid that if they arenât treated, the whole tribe will be decimated!â
Chuxue immediately gave Nan Xun the grass root that could cure the plague. âAâXi, you see, this is it. There are slender leaves on the root and it can be found everywhere in the jungle.â
Nan Xun gave Chuxue a big hug. âThank you, younger sister. I wish you happiness.â
Chuxue was stunned for a moment, and her eyes flickered before becoming very firm. âI will. I will grasp my happiness firmly in my hand.â
She looked at AâYu who wasnât far from them. A beautiful woman stood beside him with a slightly bulging belly.
He was now the new Patriarch and the strength of the tribe made members of other declining tribes take refuge, especially women. Since there were more women in the tribe, there are more women for every man.
AâYu originally insisted on not wanting them, but those women stuck on him like flies that he couldnât get rid of.4 Chuxue used to feel more at ease with AâYu ah, but she didnât expect that he would let this woman AâXiang scheme against AâYu.5
AâXiang gave AâYu an aphrodisiac while he wasnât paying attention, and she took advantage of the opportunity to intertwine with him. The two had a good night together and now she already has AâYuâs baby.
Nan Xun also saw AâXiang. She didnât expect this damn woman to abandon the cannibal tribe early on to take refuge here.
This damn woman coveted her man, and now even schemed against Chuxueâs man!
âChuxue, you have to be careful with this woman,â Nan Xun reminded before leaving.
âDonât worry, Iâll kill her sooner or later,â Chuxue murmured.
Nan Xun: âŠ
Itâs terrible. I accidentally witnessed the blackening process of a little tender white flower.6
Chuxue said indifferently, âI know that AâYu only loves me, but even if he didnât do it on purpose, my heart is so disgusted like I swallowed a fly. But I have no choice. Compared with other men, heâs already unique and I canât push him to other cheap women because of one mistake.â7
Nan Xun didnât have the cheek to say AâYu isnât unique, but my AâMang is.
Chuxue was already bitter enough, she didnât want to sprinkle salt on the little girlâs wound.
Nan Xun and AâMang flew high into the sky with Big Grey under the shocked eyes of the group.
âHeavens na, AâXi is the envoy of the god Uto, she can control the beast!â someone exclaimed suddenly, and the tribe clamored immediately after.
Everyone fell to their knees on the ground with a thump and repeatedly kowtowed in the direction of the big bird.
Big Grey flew far away, but Nan Xun saw the primitives still kneeling on the ground respectfully as they became as small as ants.
âI didnât expect that I would be able to enjoy this veneration one day, tsk,â Nan Xun said to Little Eight in her heart.
Little Eight: âŠ
Nan Xun and AâMang collected a lot of grass roots in the jungle, then took them to the cannibal tribe and all the nearby plague-stricken tribes.
They landed like gods and saved a large number of tribes. Nan Xun became the envoy of the deity Uto in everyoneâs eyes and was respected for a while.
After returning to the treehouse, AâMang hugged her in his arms, fearing that she would run away in the blink of an eye.
When Nan Xun was asleep, she heard a man whispering in her ear, âAâXi, it turns out youâre not a witch, but an envoy of Uto. No matter what you are, youâre my AâXi. Youâre not allowed to go anywhereâŠâ
Really overbearing as always ah.
In her sleep, Nan Xun gently hooked the corner of her mouth up.
The two returned to a calm and nourishing life, but god seemed to be annoyed by something and wanted to severely punish the creatures in the jungle. It wasnât long after the plague outbreak that god brought a great fire.
The whole forest was set ablaze by a raging fire and the flames rose into the sky, enveloped in smoke.
