Chapter 225 I must go
After Yan Ling told Mu Xia and the others about the strange things he had encountered, Mu Xia's expression turned serious, her brows furrowed, and she asked, "Where's Ning Ning?"
“Ningning is currently in the Abandoned Beast Domain, with Xiao Chong and the others,” Yi Yuan said.
"Hmm, that's good. Sigh." She seemed thoughtful, then looked at the zombie dragon and asked, "Are you sure that the Eastern Canghai has a way to restore Ningning's memories?"
"Yes, Holy Lady, I swear on my life, it's absolutely true. Our Zombie Dragon Clan is no ordinary beast race," Yan Ling said confidently.
After pondering for a moment, Mu Xia said, "Alright, let's wait for Ningning and the others to come back before making any plans. You should go back and rest first."
"Yes," Yi Yuan replied.
Then she walked to Mu Chen's side, who was lying down, and sighed silently, "Sigh..."
——
It was already evening when Xiao Chong and his group returned to the wolf clan.
"Ningning." Yiyuan called out after seeing Shu Ning and the others appear.
"Who are they?" Shu Ning asked, looking at the three people standing at the entrance of the wolf clan.
“The one in the middle is Yiyuan, the beast husband you picked up; the one on the left is Xuanmo, also picked up by you; and the one on the right is Hanshe, who came to you on his own,” Yan said as she walked.
Looking at their extraordinary demeanor, Shu Ning felt puzzled.
"Do you think I'm that good at picking things up? What about you guys?"
“We are both legitimate partners,” Nightmare said.
“Oh…” Shu Ning replied.
After the group approached, Shu Ning got off Jin Tong's back.
"Ningning, are you tired?" Yiyuan asked, reaching out to touch Shu Ning's head.
Seeing this, Shu Ning took a step back. "I'm not tired."
Seeing how distant Shu Ning was from him, Yi Yuan felt a bitter taste in his mouth, even though he knew it was due to amnesia.
Then she smiled gently and said, "It's nothing."
"Ningning, do you still remember me?" Han She asked.
Shu Ning looked at Han She beside her, thought for a moment, and shook her head, "I don't remember."
"And what about me?" Xuanmo asked immediately.
Shu Ning looked at Xuan Mo on the other side and shook her head as well, "I don't remember either."
"If even Ningning doesn't remember me, then you guys will remember even less," Jin Tong retorted.
“Yes, let Ningning go back first, she must be hungry,” Yan said.
Shu Ning looked at Yan and nodded, "Mm."
"We've been prepared for a long time, just waiting for you to come back," Yi Yuan said.
"Hurry, hurry, I'm starving," Jin Tong said.
Then the group entered the wolf pack.
"Have you received the orcs that were sent to your area yesterday?" Yi Yuan asked.
“Mm,” Xuan Lin replied.
“We’ve thought about it, and we plan to take Ningning to Dongcanghai for a visit,” Xiao Chong said.
“That’s what we think too,” Han She said. “We have to go.”
"Alright, if no one has any objections, we'll set off first thing tomorrow morning," Yi Yuan said.
"Is it too much for Ningning to handle all this rush?" Mo Li asked.
"Are we going to the East Sea?" Shu Ning asked, looking at Mo Li who was holding her hand, after hearing their conversation.
“Yes, that’s right,” Mo Li replied.
"Great! Let's set off tomorrow!" Shu Ning said excitedly.
"Ningning, how did you know?" Yiyuan asked in surprise.
“That’s what Yan said,” Shu Ning said.
Yi Yuan glanced at Yan, then looked at Shu Ning again, "What did he say to you?"
"He said there are lots of delicious food and fun things to do in Dongcanghai," Shu Ning said, looking at Yi Yuan.
The others all looked at Nightmare and gave him a look.
"No, why are you all staring at me like that?" Nightmare said.
Then, as if nothing had happened, they continued walking.
Shu Ning noticed their gazes and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"Uh...it's okay, he's right," Yi Yuan said with a smile.
Shu Ning nodded in agreement.
...
After the group finished dinner...
"You've all had a long day, everyone should go back and rest. We'll talk again tomorrow," Xiao Chong said, then looked at Shu Ning, "Ningning, who do you want to keep you company tonight?"
"You," Shu Ning said without hesitation.
Xiao Chong smiled slightly and said, "Okay." Then he led her away.
"I didn't expect that even though Ningning has amnesia, her favorite person is still Xiao Chong," Yan said with emotion as she watched the two of them leave.
"Sigh, you're right, it's truly enviable," Jin Tong said, crossing his arms.
"Let's go back and rest. We'll set off tomorrow," Mo Li said before heading back.
"Ningning, come to my place tonight," Xiao Chong said, holding Shu Ning's hand.
“Okay,” Shu Ning replied.
After seeing the others behind her go back, Shu Ning looked at Xiao Chong.
“Xiao Chong,” Shu Ning said in a calm tone, “Is Dong Canghai… not as Yan said, with no delicious food and nothing fun to do?”
A hint of surprise flashed in Xiao Chong's eyes, then he said, "That's right, Ningning."
"What kind of place is that?" she asked.
"That was the place where the Zombie Dragon Clan used to live. After the Zombie Dragon Clan disappeared, it is now a place where ferocious beasts gather."
"So, many of the stray animals they wouldn't take in yesterday will go there?" Shu Ning said.
“That’s right, many people go there, but not all of them,” Xiao Chong said.
Xiao Chong's answer was similar to what she had guessed. He continued, "Since it's so dangerous, why should we go there?"
“For the sake of…” Xiao Chong hesitated.
"Is it because of me?" Shu Ning interrupted.
“We’re going to treat your illness,” Xiao Chong said. “You’ve forgotten a lot of things, so it’s good for you to see a doctor.”
"Yan said, 'Wasn't there anything good in the past? Why do you still remember it?'" Shu Ning said.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chong remained silent for a while. He knew that Shu Ning was worried about the danger of that place and their safety, and did not want them to take any risks.
“Ningning, it’s not like that. There are some problems that we can’t solve, so we have to go.” Xiao Chong said gently but firmly.
“What kind of problem is it that makes me have to go? I feel fine now, there’s no need to go,” Shu Ning said.
"Okay, then we won't go."
"Of course we're going, we absolutely have to go."
As soon as Xiao Chong finished speaking, he saw Mu Xia waiting for them at the entrance of Xiao Chong's cave.
Knowing they were leaving tomorrow, I came specifically to see how Shu Ning was doing.
When Shu Ning saw the female before her, who was both kind and dignified, she looked at her curiously, then looked at Xiao Chong with a questioning gaze.
“This is your mother, Ningning,” Xiao Chong said.
Hearing Jiang Long's words and seeing that her daughter no longer recognized her, Mu Xia felt heartbroken, but she acted as if nothing had happened.
"Mother..." Shu Ning called out hesitantly.
"Oh, Ningning." Mu Xia stepped forward to examine her carefully, placing her hands on Shu Ning's cheeks, a complicated look in her eyes. "It's all because your mother is too busy and doesn't have time to take care of you."
A moment later, pointing to a servant holding a package, he said, "Xiao Chong, these are all prepared for you. Besides the Xuanjing Stone, there are also some defensive items inside. They will be useful to take with you tomorrow."
"Take good care of yourselves and Ningning." Mu Xia didn't give Shu Ning and Xiao Chong a chance to refuse, and looked at Xiao Chong seriously.
Then, looking at Shu Ning again, she said, "Get some rest tonight. Your mother is going back now."
