114 The Great Sage Equal to Heaven (1/2)

When Jiang Wu started their campfire, all of the students gathered around for warmth. Their bodies had gotten so cold their fingers and toes were freezing!

All of a sudden, two middle-aged men stood up and walked over to Ren Xiaosu's group. But before they could get near them, Xiaoyu had already given them a cold ”no” in response.

The two middle-aged men resentfully returned to where they came from, wondering why there was such a great difference in their attitude towards men and women.

”Big Sister Xiaoyu is quite assertive,” Yan Liuyuan said with a smile. He mimicked Big Sister Xiaoyu's tone and said coldly, ”No!”

”What do you know?” Xiaoyu smiled and rolled her eyes at him. ”That teacher named Jiang Wu seems rather nice and is a good person. The two men had the cheek to wait for a woman to set an example for them before they came forward to ask for help? They're such failures as men. Besides, Jiang Wu had been trying for so long to start a fire by hand drilling wood. She only came to borrow our fire when she was left with no choice. As for the others, they only know to receive the fruits of our labor and don't even want to put in any effort for their survival!”

When Xiaoyu said this, she purposely raised her voice. The group of men around her were incredibly embarrassed. Then she smiled at Ren Xiaosu and said, ”I only dared to speak louder because you're around. So, what do you think of that girl?”

Ren Xiaosu was mystified. ”What the hell are you talking about?”

”Stop playing dumb.” Xiaoyu giggled. ”Although she looks a little older than you, a mature wife ensures a joyful life. As long as she's a good person, that's good enough.”

”Alright, alright, Big Sister Xiaoyu.” Ren Xiaosu did not know whether to laugh or cry. ”Just eat already.”

currently, Jiang Wu was sitting around the campfire with her students. She comforted them, ”Everyone, sleep tight tonight. I have a hairpin you guys can use to burst the blisters on your feet before you sleep.”

All of the students fell silent. A female student lowered her head and said, ”Thank you, Teacher. Actually, you don't have to do all these things for us. We're no longer at school.”

”What are you saying?” Jiang Wu interrupted. ”I'm your teacher, so I have to safely lead you guys to the stronghold.”

”Teacher, I miss home….”

”I miss my parents so much, I wonder where they are now….”

The students began crying as they continued. It wasn't until this moment that their grief from the disaster was finally let out.

When someone starts crying, the people around them also start crying. It's contagious.

The people who had escaped from the stronghold were all crying, and everyone could not help but feel sad. They had really lost everything.

Only Ren Xiaosu and company were sitting among the crowd of crying people with dumbfounded looks on their faces.

”Bro, should we be crying too?” Yan Liuyuan asked meekly as he looked around him.

”It's alright, we don't have to cry,” Ren Xiaosu said in a speechless manner.

Suddenly, footsteps and some voices came from the way that they had come from.

They heard someone over there shout, ”Look, there's the glow of fire. There must be survivors!”

Ren Xiaosu turned around and was surprised to see a young man running towards them with several dozen people. The young man shouted excitedly, ”See, what did I tell y'all? I said I would bring all of you to the others, didn't I?”

Ren Xiaosu was a little puzzled. This group of people must also have escaped from the stronghold, right? Why had they only just caught up?

When the young man came to the larger group, someone asked, ”Did you guys escape from the stronghold as well? I remember that those behind us had been prevented from escaping by those strange bugs, right?”

A person answered, ”It was all thanks to Chen Wudi. He was the one who helped open a path so we could escape. Oh yeah, he's a supernatural being!”

The young man whose name was Chen Wudi said happily, ”That was something I should do. The Great Sage Equal to Heaven shall subdue all demons and monsters to protect the people!”
