Chapter 214 It’s Not Xixi’s Fault
The woman was hunched over, her eyes were numb, and her tone was full of questioning and sadness.
Many people stood up and waited for Ye Yuxi's answer.
Lu Jiuge stood in front of Ye Yuxi, "Xixi she——"
Yuwen Xingzhi also wanted to speak, but Ye Yuxi pushed Lu Jiuge aside and looked at everyone frankly: "I'm sorry, I'm late. I didn't know you were here. If you had known, you would have come earlier."
"So many of us have died. Our people are wanted and hunted by the demons. If they catch us, they will sell us, play with us, torture us, or even eat us... We have to move to another place every once in a while..."
"No matter what the Patriarch says, I am not willing to serve you as my Lord. You are not qualified."
The other two women were talking, but many of the women looked at Ye Yuxi in silence, with clear attitudes.
"I didn't mean to ask you to follow me," Ye Yuxi said, "I just knew that we might have some connection, so I wanted to come and see if there's anything I can help you with."
"My young master doesn't blame you. You are so young. Even if it's early, how early can it be?"
Yuwen Xingzhi was in a bit of a dilemma. His clansmen were indeed in a difficult situation. He couldn't bear to blame them, so he could only get down and talk about it later. Fortunately, Ye Yuxi didn't blame him.
Ye Yuxi took out most of the food from the shelter and placed it on the ground, which was quite spectacular.
Don't underestimate the motivation of a foodie to hoard food.
The women who spoke just now wanted to refuse, but they couldn't. If not for them, the children would have been hungry for a long time.
They had never seen any food on the ground.
"I'll give it to you. If you have any questions, you can come to Xiaojiu's territory to find me," Ye Yuxi said, "It's just west of Ximo City. Brother, let's go."
Ye Yuxi never forces others to have hobbies.
"Young Master," Yuwen Xingzhi and a group of people tried to stop them, "That's not what they meant—"
"I'll tell you when I find the way back." Ye Yuxi didn't respond to him at all.
"We all practice magic, how can we——"
The woman wanted to say something, but when she saw the food on the ground, she stammered a few times and could say no more.
Ye Yuxi smiled and said, "There is always a way. If my brother can go back, you can go back too."
Lu Jiuge took Ye Yuxi away, "Xixi, you handled it very well."
Ye Yuxi buried her little head in Lu Jiuge's neck and said in a muffled voice, "Brother, I feel a little sorry for them."
"What's there to be sorry about?" Lu Jiuge's eyes flashed with displeasure from an angle that Ye Yuxi couldn't see. "It's not you who caused them to be like this, and it's not even Yuwen Shengtian who caused them to be like this. Yuwen Shengtian didn't ask them to go find him."
"It was caused by their ancestors."
Lu Jiuge’s summary was very incisive.
The child's guilt is unjustified.
Ye Yuxi felt that Lu Jiuge was right, but also felt it was weird.
"But, they might be looking for my father."
Lu Jiuge held Ye Yuxi's face.
"That person may not be your father. Even if he is, so what? You did what you were supposed to do. You don't owe them anything."
"I understand." Ye Yuxi didn't fully understand. She would have to wait until she grew up a little more to understand.
When the brother and sister went to Ximo City, Yuwen Xingzhi's tribesmen were eating.
The children were starving, but they ate their food in small bites, cherishing it very much.
"Chief, is she really our little mistress? She is so beautiful."
"Chief, the food is delicious. It's not black mushrooms or black grass. If we follow the young master in the future, we won't have to go hungry anymore, right?"
The child who said this was beaten by his mother. "You were bought off with a little food. What is the suffering we have endured for so many years worth?"
Yuwen Xingzhi frowned and said, "Shut up. I've told you all that this has nothing to do with the young master. If you keep saying this, get out of here."
The woman's husband came over and pulled her: "The clan leader is right, the little master is not even as big as a clay egg. Besides, it was the ancestors who came here on their own, and it has nothing to do with the little master. We finally have hope, don't go too far."
"Hope? But she's gone yet?" the woman couldn't help but mutter.
"That's enough!" Yuwen Xingzhi scolded, "If it weren't for you, would the young master have left? I didn't punish you in front of the young master because I saw that everyone was having a hard time. You bastard, if you're not satisfied, you can leave."
The woman didn't move, and neither did the women who had spoken earlier.
They just have complaints, not that they don't understand the truth.
Yuwen Xingzhi sighed: "No matter what, you shouldn't vent your anger on a child. She has never seen her master and has lived in a relative's house since she was a child. Her life has not been easy—"
On the way back, he asked these questions inconspicuously.
"Chief, I was wrong." A woman stood up and admitted her mistake.
More people came out to admit their mistakes, and Tudan's mother finally said awkwardly: "I will admit my mistake if I see her again."
Ye Yuxi no longer used the horn as a disguise, and the two of them entered Ximo City.
Ximo City returned to its previous state. As soon as they appeared, a demon came to greet them: "Master Xiaojiu, the city lord is waiting for you in the city lord's mansion."
Lu Jiuge thought, what is coming will come.
Mo Mo was not sure whether Lu Jiuge would come, and she thought a lot about it.
Could Lu Jiuge and Ye Yuxi be demons? Could they be disabled demons who escaped from some high-level demons? Would they lead the demons to capture Ximo City?
Many thoughts flashed through his mind, but he never thought that Lu Jiuge and Ye Yuxi were thorough human cultivators...
"Lord City Lord, Lord Xiaojiu and Miss Xixi are here!"
After hearing the report from his subordinates, Mo Mo stood up suddenly, then returned to normal and sat upright.
Lu Jiuge held Ye Yuxi and sat down. Mo Mo saw Ye Yuxi's smooth forehead and was surprised that both of them were no longer pretending. Did Xiaojiu trust him or not?
"Are you demons or disabled demons?" Mo Mo asked straight to the point.
Lu Jiuge: "I don't want to lie to you. I can't tell you. Are you going to arrest me and Xixi?"
Mo Mo really thought about it, whether to ask for help from the higher-level demons, but Lu Jiuge asked so bluntly -
She turned her face away: "I can't beat you, even West Desert City can't beat you, how can I catch you?"
"Sister Momo, we are friends, you won't arrest me and my brother." Ye Yuxi said sweetly.
"Just because I don't catch you doesn't mean the higher-level demons won't catch you," Mo Mo turned his head and looked directly at Lu Jiuge, "Xiao Jiu, I know you're powerful, but to kill you I may need a magic weapon, or maybe enough demons will do."
"Care about me?" Lu Jiuge chuckled.
"No, you helped me and I don't want you to die." Mo Mo replied.
Although Mo Mo felt awkward, Lu Jiuge basically confirmed Mo Mo's attitude.
"In fact, many demons don't bother to care about demons," Lu Jiuge said, "I heard that there are demons who want to take them in for their own use. The demons have some connections with Xixi. I want to put the demons in my territory, and they won't attack Ximo City again."
"Also, we need to find something in West Desert City. Ask City Lord Mo for help."
