Chapter 2043: Divine Envoy? Guidance of the Ancestors
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
They saw the Jianan Elder bringing three strangers into the community.Everyone stopped what they were doing.
They eyed them with curiosity mingled with fear.
Luo Qingchen could feel the rejection and alienation contained in those gazes.
They seemed to dislike outsiders.
At that moment.
A younger and stronger Jianan tribesman approached from ahead.
The blue patterns on his body were much brighter than others.
His aura was also more powerful.
Clearly, he held a high status within the tribe.
“Elder!”
Using their native language, he loudly addressed the Jianan Elder, his tone full of dissatisfaction.
He pointed at Luo Qingchen and the others, his emotions appeared somewhat agitated.
Although Luo Qingchen couldn’t understand what he was saying.
From his expression and gestures, he could guess he was opposed to outsiders entering the tribe.
The Jianan Elder halted.
He turned to speak a few words to the young tribesman.
His voice was calm, yet carried an indisputable authority.
Although the young tribesman still wore a look of displeasure.
He dared not say anything further.
He merely glared fiercely at Luo Qingchen.
Then, turned and left angrily.
Luo Qingchen observed all this.
He understood.
Though they had temporarily found a refuge.
This tribe was not as peaceful as it appeared.
Undercurrents had long been churning beneath the surface.
The Jianan Elder led them to a stone house located at the edge of the settlement.
“This is your temporary residence.”
“Do not move around without my permission.”
“Especially avoid approaching the Holy Land.”
His voice carried a hint of warning.
Luo Qingchen nodded.
“Thank you, Elder.”
“We won’t cause trouble for the tribe.”
The Jianan Elder gave him a deep look.
Then looked at Bai Ling’er, who was asleep in his arms.
Finally, he sighed, said nothing more, and turned to leave.
The door of the stone house closed.
Isolating them from the clamor and surveillance outside.
Luo Qingchen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He gently placed Bai Ling’er on the stone bed.
No matter what.
They had at least found a place to stay for now.
However.
What exactly was the “Shadow” mentioned by the Jianan Elder?
Where was the Holy Land?
And Bai Ling’er’s transformation, was it a blessing or a curse?
Mysteries upon mysteries shrouded Luo Qingchen’s mind.
…
The stone house was very quiet.
Luo Qingchen sat at the edge of the stone bed, looking at Bai Ling’er who was still sleeping, feeling indescribably frustrated.
This little girl had been asleep ever since the Law storm, her aura steady but the golden dragon mark on her forehead flickered in and out, leaving him perplexed.
Whether it was good or bad, he had no idea.
“Brother Luo, don’t worry too much.”
Lin Wan’er’s voice came from beside, handing over a clay bowl filled with clear water.
“Bai Ling’er, with her unique power, her transformation is surely a good thing for her.”
Luo Qingchen took the bowl and drank.
The cool water slid down his throat, but couldn’t extinguish the fire within.
He worried not only about Bai Ling’er.
But also about this bizarre place.
The Jianan Tribe.
Though temporarily safe, the feeling of being rejected and watched made him uncomfortable.
Especially that bellowing young tribesman, his eyes wished to swallow them whole.
“That Jianan Elder seems unfathomable, but what he said about ‘Shadow’ and ‘Holy Land’ is strange all around.”
Su Xiaowan sat on the other side, absently drawing circles on the ground, her brow furrowed.
“Moreover, the atmosphere in this tribe feels oppressive, not as peaceful as it appears, everyone hides something within.”
Her insight into human nature was always sharp.
Luo Qingchen nodded, feeling the same.
“Let’s take it one step at a time.”
He sighed.
“We need information, need to understand this world. This Jianan Tribe is our only breakthrough.”
“Regardless of their attitude, we must find a way to stay, at least until Bai Ling’er wakes up.”
At that moment, the door of the stone house was knocked.
Knock, knock, knock.
The three immediately became alert.
Luo Qingchen stood up, Chaotic Power quietly circulating within.
“Who?”
No sound came from outside.
But the feeling of being watched grew even clearer.
Luo Qingchen and Lin Wan’er exchanged a glance, slowly walked to the door, and suddenly pulled it open.
Outside, there was no one.
Only a few Jianan tribe children, hiding far away at the corner of another stone house, peeked at them, their eyes full of childish curiosity and a hint of adult-taught fear.
Seeing the door open, they exclaimed “ah” and scattered.
“Looks like we’ve become rare creatures here.”
Lin Wan’er smiled self-deprecatingly.
Luo Qingchen didn’t smile.
His gaze fell to the ground at the doorway of the stone house.
There lay a small basket woven from rattan.
Inside the basket were a few purple fruits that looked like fruit, and a piece of roasted beast meat, still warm.
Who had sent it?
Luo Qingchen used Divine Sense to scan, confirming there were no issues, before bringing the basket inside.
“It seems not everyone holds hostility towards us.”
