Chapter 2455: Please Don’t Cry!!
These people couldn’t make up their minds. If they kept chasing, they might not be able to catch up. Should they find Xuan Yuanhao, they might not be able to fight him.
Once the two arrived in a town, Xuan Yuanhao could mobilize the strength of the local authority.
But if they didn’t chase after them, they would lose the spirit stone and their whole clan would go extinct.
The high priest’s face distorted. “Chase after them.”
The group quickly ran off.
Ning Shu immediately followed them.
They seemed to be very proficient in tracking as they were pursuing the duo based on some traces left on the trees and leaves.
Ning Shu felt that these people must have lived in the mountains and forests. They had a way of tracking their prey.
Zhenzhen, please don’t cry!!
Ning Shu sank some energy into her dantian so that when she walked, it would feel as though she was walking on flat ground. This way, it wouldn’t be so bumpy for Zhenzhen.
In the face of extinction, the group moved very quickly and soon caught up to the two people.
The god of war and the woman were having a barbecue.
Ning Shu hid at the side and watched.
Xuan Yuanhao, scrubbed clean, had a jade-like handsomeness with great loftiness.
The longer Ning Shu looked, the more she believed him to be the protagonist.
The high priest looked at Xuan Yuanhao coldly. “Hand over the spirit stone.”
Xuan Yuanhao stood up and said, “Good things belong to those who are capable. ‘There are merely a few hundred people in your Stone Clan. In my hands, the spirit stone can safeguard many more people of Li country’s people.”
“Your people are human beings, but ours are not? You can survive without a spirit stone, but our people will die without one.” The high priest’s face twisted.
Ning Shu couldn’t help scratching her head. Was this spirit stone that important?
“Your Stone Clan’s people simply can’t tolerate the sun. They can just live underground and come out at night,” said the woman.
Ning Shu blinked. What kind of disease made it so they couldn’t be in the sun?
The clan’s members might lack UV-resistant genes.
Hearing this, Ning Shu could basically confirm that the spirit stone was a barrier stone.
These people lived under a barrier.
“How about you live underground? How would you like that?” the man beside the high priest said viciously.
The woman placed her hands on her waist and said prettily, “It’s not like I can’t bask in the sun.”
Ning Shu: …
Dat true.
The high priest stared at Xuan Yuanhao and said, “Return the spirit stone and I won’t bother you about the other things. If you choose to continue like this, it will only end in death.”
Xuan Yuanhao ignored the high priest’s words. He extended his clenched fist, tidied up his sleeves, and said, “The spirit stone shouldn’t have been in your hands in the first place.”
The designs on the high priest’s face wriggled, “So you’re not going to give it back to us?”
“I only took your things and didn’t hurt your people. If it had been people from the imperial court, they definitely would have sent troops to annihilate your village,” Xuan Yuanhao said.
“I only took something and didn’t hurt you. Instead, you were the ones who poisoned me and planted a demonic poison insect inside me.”
“Don’t feel wronged. An ignorant, ordinary man would get in trouble for having such an item.”
Ning Shu: …
Ning Shu nodded. The conversation made it seem like Xuan Yuanhao was being kind-hearted and generous.
What the hell?
He robbed something yet still tried to sincerely convince people it was for their own good.
Ning Shu squatted at the side and slapped the mosquitoes on her feet.
The discord between the two sides naturally led to a fight.
To Ning Shu’s surprise, the woman knew martial arts, but she was far from advanced. She could only deal with one or two people.
Ning Shu felt very conflicted. Which side should she help right now? Should she join in and fight as a third party?
Xuan Yuanhao’s martial arts were truly advanced. Basically, everyone attacked Xuan Yuanhao from all sides.
