Chapter 192 Whoever Obstructs Shall Die! (1/2)
“Oh……” Ning Xue was easily being waken up through shaking, she opened her eyes, rubbed her drowsy eyes, half-consciously said: “Brother, are we there yet?”
“Not yet, are you hungry now? What do you want to eat?” asked Ye Wuchen affectionately.
Ning Xue didn’t respond right away, but using her hazy sleepiness, she asked a question that she had been holding back for so long: “Are we able to snatch Sister back?”
“Of course we can.” Ye Wuchen smiled and said: “But, during that time it might be very dangerous, by that time, Xue-er just needs to close your eyes, don’t be afraid, you got it?”
Going to the Gale Nation, the aim was to snatch, and not request, or talk things over through negotiation. His goal for heading there was to use force. The so-called treaty between Long Yin and the Gale Nation, was only a joke in his eyes. If the moment comes when the Gale Nation would really dispatch its troops against the Tian Long Nation, the first thing that they would undergo will be to receive a warning from the Southern Empire clan. And even if the Southern Empire clan remained silent, the nations would wage war against each other, what business does he have with them? He never wanted to become a so-called hero, he just wanted to use his own strength, to protect each and every important person beside him. Other things seemed unimportant to him. At most, he will just spend his utmost efforts to resolve the problems if he needed to.
“Brother…… Am I too useless, every time I will just be a burden for you…… yet I never wanted to be apart from brother.” Ning Xue flattened her mouth, with a sad expression. She knew it all along, that by the sticking beside him she will not only unable to be like Tong Xin who could help him, protect him, but she could only be a burden.
Ye Wuchen rubbed her small face, pretending to blame her as he said: “Don’t say such silly words again, or else brother would really get angry now. Do you still remember, that during that time if wasn’t for you, brother will not be here anymore, so for me, you will never become a burden, understood?”
Ning Xue didn’t respond, but just shrunk her body back to his arms, the atmosphere outside was indeed starting to get colder, only in brother’s arms, will be the most cozy and mildest place in the world.
Stopping by to rest for a short duration of time, Ye Wuchen bought a horse from the village, spurring the horse to full speed he headed westward again.
After the nightfall it will be late night, then followed by dawn, and during this period of time, every time they passed by some village or town Ye Wuchen will use the fastest speed to switch to a new horse, during the long night, his entire body had been soaked wet by dew, but still he felt the time passed by too quickly, and the horse was running too slow.
After early morning, the sun was at three poles high, they became very closer and closer to the Tian Feng City. In the eastern side of the Gale Nation, aside from the atmosphere being somehow dry, it was not much different from the Tian Long Nation. In the noon time, the Tian Feng City had finally appeared before the sight of the worried Ye Wuchen, he heavily heaved a sigh of relief.
During the time when Feng Ling had drawn support from Feng ChaoYang’s power to travel from Tian Feng City to Tian Long City within three days time, was already considered truly astonishing, but Ye Wuchen had actually just used one day and one night’s time, it could only be described as universally shocking. The main thing he had relied on, was the frightening speed of Tong Xin.
This time, with a neighing sound, the horse below him suddenly stumbled, heavily fell forward, Ye Wuchen quickly carried Ning Xue as he jumped to the ground, didn’t dare to stop, he patted the horse that was paralyzed on the ground panting heavily, with its entire body twitching, he said: “Thanks for your effort, rest well now.”
“Help…… Woowoo, big brother, please save me……”
Ye Wuchen was about to proceed ahead, when suddenly he heard the sound of a young girl crying out for help beside his ears, the voice was gentle and soft, so pitiful. While being anxious a while ago, Ye Wuchen didn’t even notice that there was a person beside him.
He casted sidelong glances, discovered a petite figure in the midst of the withered grass from the roadside, due to the grass being too high, and the young girl’s body being petite, she was being almost fully covered by the dry grass, without paying much attention, the passers-by will not able to easily find her.
Ye Wuchen hesitated for a moment, eventually his heart went soft, then walked over to the area. He discovered that it was a young girl. Her age was similar to Ning Xue, her clothes have been cut open a few spots, with two elaborate ponytails on her head, her small face delicate and adorable, but on her face were few traces of tear stains that were about to dry up, she was hugging her right leg while sitting there, softly crying out due to pain, looking pitifully at Ye Wuchen.
“Brother, looks like she was hurt, can we help her.” Ning Xue knew that they have an urgent matter in hand, but her soft heart simply couldn’t make her to just ignore this seemingly similar young age girl who was badly hurt.
“Big brother, my foot was so painful…… can you help take me to my home……” The young girl’s eyes were flashing with tears, weeping while sobbing.
Her one foot appeared to be badly twisted, almost seemed like being fiercely hit by something that it was dislocated, furthermore it was not a huge hindrance. Ye Wuchen didn’t want to delay further, didn’t inquire her, just swiftly squat down, his hands pressing on her foot, twisted his wrist, during the painful yell of the girl with “ka-cha” sound, her ankle was moved back to its original position, followed by releasing a portion of his Wuchen power, recovered the injured site, completely wiping off her pain and discomfort.
Ye Wuchen stood up, looking at the young girl with widely opened eyes and a face full of unconvinced expression while touching her foot, he said: “It’s already alright, you must hurry home, in the future don’t come to such faraway place all by yourself again.”
“Ah…… thank you big brother, big brother, can you tell me your name…… Ah! Big brother!”
Before she could finish talking, Ye Wuchen already left like a gust of wind, disappeared before her eyes, she can only stare at his rear view, just like being foolishly terrified.
When their figures disappeared from her sight, the young girl’s facial expression had completely disappeared, replaced by a gloomy and cold apathetic expression, slowly, she stood up, looking at the direction where they were headed, the corner of her mouth hooked up, exposing a frightening smile: “Indeed it was the two of them, the one who had lost her powers, and the other one with a power that had declined too much……”
“But, what kind of power did that person use a while ago?”
