Chapter 225 The Little Gift (2/2)

Ye Wuchen moved the finger in his left hand: “Xue-er, come here, I have fire here, also the stove, everything that we need. Xue-er, you forget already?”

The ring of the God of Sword was flickering white light on his finger, it had been filled with the element of fire, the matchbox to be used for lighting up fire, pot, ladle, stove, in a complete gamut, even so many excess firewoods which they didn’t use up before. These, were things that they brought on their way to the Heavenly Fire Volcano, also used them during the journey, all were still kept inside his God of Sword’s ring. Aside from these, their beds, tents, also some of the unconsumed food were inside. Taking out these things from the God of Sword’s ring only needed his thoughts, without exerting any strength.

Everything before their eyes looked quite familiar, after Ning Xue’s delightment, her nose started to turn sour. She missed those times when she would just lazily sleep in her brother’s arms, she missed Tong Xin, missed too many persons…… But, in this life she might never be able to see them again. The Death Abyss was too deep that it had separated them from the outside world, having an indefinite time to meet them again.

Ning Xue quickly lighted up the fir, she had finally seen the color of the fire again. Under his feet was the meadowland, she would not worry that it will trigger big fire. But after lighting up the fire, Ning Xue held up the rabbit again not knowing what to do, because whether it will be roasted or boiled, she would need to peel off the rabbit’s skin first, Ning Xue had never done it before, and almost couldn’t do it. Although she would be able to savor it, but everytime when Ye Wuchen peeled off the skin of an animal, she simply wouldn’t dare to look at it.

Ye Wuchen immediately guessed her thoughts, he pitifully said: “Xue-er, let’s eat this rabbit after I regained my strength, okay? I have pastries here that we can eat.”

Ning Xue thought for a while, yet she slowly and resolutely shook her head, with one hand holding the rabbit, the other hand was lifting up a small knife, then she proceeded beside the creek.

When she put the small knife towards the rabbit’s body, she hands trembled repeatedly, she wouldn’t dare to let it drop down. After a very long while, she clenched her teeth, firmly pierced it with the knife, then rigidly closed her eyes…...

“I’m sorry, little rabbit, for brother’s body nourishment, I have to sacrifice you……”

“I’m sorry, little rabbit, really really sorry……”

Relying on her own perception, the small knife peeled the rabbit’s skin, but after experiencing the unbearable and the fear, her heart had finally calmed down a bit, but her hands were still shaking continuously, several times the knife almost cut her hands. Her mouth was whispering something, saying “sorry” to the small rabbit in her hands repeatedly, only through this way, will her heart feel somehow at ease.

Hearing Ning Xue’s whispers, Ye Wuchen’s heart was also calling out Ning Xue’s name. If it wasn’t for him, she would never allow her hands to be stained with blood, even if it was already a dead rabbit.

After handling that rabbit, Ning Xue’s head was already full of sweat, she put the rabbit inside the pot, then filled it up with the creek water, with Ye Wuchen’s guide she put in all sorts of condiments, when the fragrance of the cooked meat came through, Ning Xue was already drooling, incessantly holding it back, but still a drop of sparkling and clear saliva fell out of from her mouth, it was already a very long time ago that she had tasted meat.

“Brother, do you think that Sister and Sister Tong Xin are okay? Are they missing us?” Ning Xue asked as she tried hard to restrain herself from drooling.

Ye Wuchen smiled and said: “They must be missing us the way we missed them. Your Sister Tong Xin is quite powerful, no one would ever hurt them.”

Thinking of them, Ye Wuchen’s heart became heavy again. The actual situation, he will be unable to predict it. That day when they jumped into the Death Abyss, Tong Xin’s breath was similarly as weak as his. She and himself were the same, being in the middle of the life-and-death struggle. Her enemy was so powerful that she wasn’t able to contend against.

Would she be similar to him, being compelled to a difficult situation. And waiting patiently in the Gale Nation, what would have happened to Ye ShuiYao…...

Thinking of these, his heart was greatly confused. He tried to think of the person who would have compelled Tong Xin to a difficult situation. Who that person was, and what kind of strength he would have. And precisely with this person’s appearance, it had forced Tong Xin to leave Ning Xue, causing Ning Xue to be kidnapped by the Gale Nation, and changed everything that followed.

That person, who was it? Among the Heavenly Star Continent, would there be anyone else who have such terribly great power?

Perhaps, that person…… simply didn’t belong to the Heavenly Star Continent. With this thought, Ye Wuchen’s heart was shocked, another possibility became clear in his mind.
