Chapter 268 A Reasonable Explanation
Riley was stunned.
But before he could speak, Hill turned around and led Ai and Guaguo into the royal court.
Riley muttered to himself.
Does she like to eat fruit?
Riley was on his way to the Big Tree Hotel when Dobin arrived at breakneck speed.
"Railley, run! Princess Taff is at the Big Tree Inn!"
Riley raised his hand and pressed his temples, feeling a terrible headache.
Since he returned to the royal court, Princess Taff has been trying to ambush him at the two shops. Although he has managed to evade her most of the time, this is not a sustainable solution.
Taphthong is a princess, and he refused her request, but she wouldn't leave, so there was nothing he could do.
Riley thought for a moment.
"I'll go back to the tribe. I can go back and discuss the matter of the female envoy partnering with the female mother beast, the father beast, and the elders of the tribe."
Dobin blinked. "And what about me?"
Riley: "You stay here and keep an eye on the female's movements. If she's leaving to return to the Cursed Lands before I'm back, remember to send someone to let me know."
Dobin didn't want to go back either.
The thought that Riley was gone and he would be in charge of the two stores made him so happy he wanted to spin around in circles.
Riley said coldly, "I'll have Manan and the others come and help you."
Dobin: "..."
No, not at all.
He snorted, "Who do you think you are?"
Riley chuckled.
"Let's talk about it after you take human form."
After saying that, he didn't linger and turned to leave.
Dobin hummed and flapped his wings as he flew back, humming a little tune as he went.
"Without Riley in the inn, Dobbin is king! Dobbin is king!"
During this period, it was Hill and Little Ai who delivered fruits and vegetables to the female servants.
When they arrived, Jiang Xi was treating Hai Xiya.
Haizu was also there, standing with his hands behind his back on the edge of the cliff, gazing at the sea of clouds like a statue.
Jiang Xi ignored Hai Zu and closed her eyes to treat Hai Xiya.
Today's treatment was slightly better than yesterday's, but the intensity was still controlled.
After the treatment, she let go of his hand, her tone indifferent.
"Alright, you can leave now."
After saying that, she turned and walked towards Hill and Xiao Ai, her tone becoming much warmer.
"You're here so early? Have you had breakfast? If not, there's some in the kitchen."
Xiao Ai nodded obediently, "I've already eaten, thank you, Sister Female Envoy."
Jiang Xi patted his rabbit head, which felt very soft.
"Little Ai is so good."
Xiao Ai complained again.
"There were originally six fruits, but Dobin snatched one away just now at the entrance of the royal court."
Jiang Xi exclaimed "Ah!" and blinked.
Hmm... that does sound like something Dobin would do.
Hill looked at Ai.
"Xiao Ai, don't bother the servant with such trivial matters."
Xiao Ai pouted.
Jiang Xi quickly laughed and comforted Xiao Ai.
"Dobin is so naughty! Little Ai is so well-behaved."
Xiao Ai's eyes sparkled, and she nodded repeatedly, her long rabbit ears swaying back and forth, making Jiang Xi want to pet her hard.
But she only thought about it and didn't take any action.
After all, Xiao Ai will transform into human form in a few years and will no longer be a tiny little brat like Danadal.
Haisia, sitting in her wheelchair, couldn't help but be drawn to it.
Was she always this gentle with the beast cubs?
Lu Liufeng came over to ask the guest to leave.
"The female messenger has to go to the Giant Tree King soon, so we won't keep you any longer."
As he said this, he specifically looked at Hezu Cecilia.
Lu Liufeng didn't understand why Hai Zu had been coming here so often these past few days.
Even during the time they were held captive by Haizu, Haizu never appeared in front of them during their rest periods.
But right now, she comes over with Haixia every day.
It's simply a cover-up.
Compared to the orcs like Haixia, Giant Wood King, Riley, and Hill, he was even less willing to let the female master get involved with Haizu.
He is too powerful.
Although they now possess the combined Earth-rank power of Nafiel and Nakan, if Haizu were to get serious and unleash his full strength, they would find it difficult to resist.
Therefore, it's best to keep him as far away from the female as possible.
Haixia pursed her lips and looked at Lu Liufeng.
"Lu Liufeng, there are some things I want to talk to you about."
Cecilia: "You guys keep talking."
Lu Liufeng: "..."
He glanced back; Duan Si and Nakan were both inside the room consolidating their suddenly increased superpowers.
Nafiel is bad at socializing, Yi Yuexi is too thoughtful, and Mu Ling is a bit simple-minded.
"Horen."
Lu Liufeng called out to Huo Lun.
"Please entertain Lord Haizu. Haixia and I have some things to discuss."
Hollen has been quiet these past few days, but he has also frequently appeared at various occasions where the female master is present.
He came over upon hearing this.
"Go ahead."
Lu Liufeng pushed Hai Xiya out of the courtyard and went to the ruins next door.
The rubble in the ruins has been cleared away, leaving only the intact large stones, waiting for people to repair them.
Haixia raised her hand, and the transparent webbing between her jade-white fingers had receded considerably.
"Without treatment, I will soon turn into a dragonfish, lose my human consciousness, and become a fish swimming in the sea."
Lu Liufeng pursed his lips and said calmly.
“One thing for another, the sea pearl for the female master’s treatment, you don’t need to think too much about it.”
After a few moments of silence, Haixia's voice rang out again.
“Lu Liufeng, what happened to Jiang Xi? She's completely different now. That day in the Chunlai tribe, she didn't even recognize me…”
As he spoke, he looked up at Lu Liufeng and asked the question that had been bothering him.
Is she really still Jiang Xi?
Lu Liufeng's expression remained unchanged.
"Can't your supernatural abilities sense it? If she weren't the female master, how could she possibly heal your backlash?"
He paused for a moment, then continued.
"Of course, the female master did experience some things. Due to some accidents, she was seriously injured. After waking up, she didn't remember much about the Holy City."
The changes in the female master require some reasonable explanation.
In particular, the people of the Holy City are already on their way.
Haisia was stunned.
"So that's how it is..."
He chuckled, "No wonder she didn't recognize me that day."
Lu Liufeng did not respond.
He didn't know what kind of encounter happened between the female chieftain and Haixia that day in the Chunlai tribe, which made him unable to forget it.
But Lu Liufeng could tell that Haixia was struggling.
Behind the broken stone wall of the ruins, Alvino stood there silently.
He seemed to be deep in thought.
Is that really the case?
If Jiang Xi can heal him, even with the Tree God Tribe's divine robes concealing his identity, he will still be able to recognize her...
Unfortunately, none of the compensation he offered in the past few days could sway Jiang Xi, and she rejected it outright.
After asking the question, Haixia fell silent.
Lu Liufeng didn't say anything more, pushed him back, and as he left the ruins, he glanced at a certain broken wall.
Compared to the sea tribe, Lu Liufeng was more wary of the ancient land and Alvino.
Everything has a spirit.
This ancient land has been passed down for thousands of years, and is home to countless ancient spirits.
The ancient land, commanding all spirits, has obtained countless treasures and secrets from the long river of time...
