Song Jinqiao thought she had clearly rejected Efasi, but he was like a sticky plaster, clinging to her and giving Song Jinqiao a headache.

"I really won't be your partner. You should go back." Seeing Efasi running towards him with many fruits in his arms, Song Jinqiao rejected his kindness very coldly without leaving any room for negotiation.

Efasi seemed not to understand what she said. He still smiled at her and wanted to hand her the fruit in his arms, but Song Jinqiao did not reach out to take it.

"I told you I won't be with you."

Song Jinqiao didn't even look at him and turned away.

*

Song Jinqiao was very distressed.

Why did I reject Efasi so clearly, and why did he still pursue me so relentlessly?

In order to get rid of Efasi as soon as possible, Song Jinqiao asked his friends to hurry up so that they could leave this place quickly.

"These should be enough for us to reach the Western Continent. We can leave tomorrow morning!" Song Jinqiao said to his partner with a smile.

She is really happy now, and at the same time she is relieved because she can finally get rid of Efasi!

"What? You're going to the Western Continent!"

Suddenly, a voice that Song Jinqiao was very familiar with came, making her frown involuntarily.

Why is it him again? He's haunting us!

Song Jinqiao took a deep breath, smiled and turned around to see Efasi standing behind him with an exaggerated expression of shock.

Song Jinqiao said: "Yes, we are going to the Western Continent. What's wrong? Why are you so shocked?"

Logically speaking, even if he was very surprised that they were going to the Western Continent, he shouldn't have such an exaggerated expression.

Because of this unusual situation, Song Jinqiao became suspicious.

Efasi frowned slightly at first, then revealed a look of disapproval: "It is very dangerous for you to go to the Western Continent now."

Song Jinqiao tilted his head in confusion: "Why?"

Efasi pursed his lips, looking like he didn't want to tell her.

Song Jinqiao frowned tightly. Seeing that he wanted to say something more, she said calmly, "Since you don't want to say it, I won't force you. But I must go to the Western Continent."

Efasi sighed deeply. "It's nothing to be ashamed of. By the way, can I come in and sit down?"

Song Jinqiao looked him up and down suspiciously, then stepped aside to let him into the hut: "Come in."

Efasi and Song Jinqiao entered the wooden house together.

After Efasi sat firmly on the stool, he slowly said, "Actually, this matter..."

He paused, frowned again, and seemed to have no idea where to start.

"I discovered this by accident. I suspect that there are pagans in many ethnic groups in the Western Continent. I even suspect that there are many pagans in my own ethnic group."

"I don't trust any orcs, because I think every one of them is lying... To be honest, I really doubt every orc, even my own orc parents, and my brothers and sisters."

"What a miserable thing I am!"

Having said this, Efasi's eyes suddenly became dim and lost their light.

"I simply didn't have the ability to investigate this matter, so I left my hometown... I originally wanted to go to the East Continent, but unfortunately, I encountered something particularly terrible on my way there—a natural disaster and a tornado!"

"I passed out, and when I woke up, I saw Li Ren."

So that's what happened.

Song Jinqiao suddenly understood, and she said to him solemnly: "Thank you very much for telling me these things, but I still have to go to the Western Continent."

Hearing her words, Efasi's eyes widened, not understanding her behavior at all: "Why? Aren't you afraid of those pagans?!"

"What important things do you have in the Western Continent that make you not care about your own life?"

What I said...

Song Jinqiao said calmly, "I care about my life very much. That's why I want to go to the Western Continent."

She said it very bluntly. Efasi wanted to continue to persuade her, but she looked determined to leave and was speechless.

After Efasi left, Song Jinqiao discussed the matter with his friends.

"What do you think?" Song Jinqiao asked thoughtfully.

She actually trusts Efasi's intuition more, because some of his intuitions are not groundless and can even be accurate.

And it’s always better to take precautions in advance.

Xuan Ji and Bo Mu lowered their brows and did not speak immediately. They waited until Song Jinqiao finished speaking before they started talking.

Mu said, "I haven't been to the Western Continent for a long time, so I'm not very familiar with some things there."

Xuan Ji said, "It has indeed been a long time since the Western Continent reported to the Witch Hall about the situation of Si Wu, and before this, all these matters were overseen by the Hall Master."

To be precise, he was too lazy to take care of these things.

The reason he went to take care of the pagan affairs in the Eight King Cities was actually because he began to doubt the Witch Palace, so he went to investigate.

At this time, Nan Ming came over and said in a deep voice: "Regarding the Western Continent, the Dragon Clan does not interfere in the affairs of other continents unless there is something important, so the Dragon Clan does not know much about the affairs of the Western Continent."

The next morning, just as Song Jinqiao stepped onto the boat, he suddenly heard a shouting voice coming from far away.

"Wait! Wait!"

Song Jinqiao paused as he walked onto the boat, turned around and saw Efasi running towards him from afar. He was running very fast, as if he had something important to do and looked very anxious.

Song Jinqiao looked at him puzzledly and asked, "What's wrong?"

Efasi stopped, bent down, supported his hands on his thighs, and panted: "I...Are you going to leave now? Can you take me with you?"

Song Jinqiao was even more confused: "Why? You haven't decided to leave yet, why are you leaving now?"

Efasi sighed, straightened up, looked up at her, and said, "Don't you have to go to the Western Continent? I want to go with you. If you can really solve the problems in the Western Continent, I can go home."

Who would be willing to leave their hometown? There are always unspeakable reasons.

Song Jinqiao thought about it and sighed: "Okay, you go with us."

After saying this, she was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Efasi again.

"What's wrong? What do you want to say?" she asked.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Li Ren walking towards him from afar, followed by his beastly father.

Efasi scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "Can you take Li Ren with you? He also wants to go to the Western Continent."
