The leader of the guard was about to leave when he saw the girl's hand on the couch suddenly move.
"Sister!" She pointed at the girl excitedly.
The high priest saw it, and everyone saw it!
Shen Ruoxi was also delighted, but she did not stop and continued to transfer her spiritual power to the girl.
After another stick of incense had passed, the girl's breathing gradually became steady, and everyone in the house who witnessed this scene couldn't help but cheer.
The news soon reached the ears of the Baiyu people who were kneeling outside the stilt house.
"Miss Awan is alive! Miss Awan is indeed the one chosen by the gods. Our White Feather Clan is saved!"
"It was that Han woman who saved Miss Awan. The high priest's prophecies never go wrong!"
"Please take advantage of the contract between Lord Huang and Miss Awan to save the White Feather Clan!"
"Please take advantage of the contract between Lord Huang and Miss Awan to save the White Feather Clan!"
…
All the cheers finally turned into this sentence, one louder than the other, resounding throughout the sky above Baiyu Village.
The people of the Baiyu tribe only knew that their leader's successor had returned from the dead, but they didn't know that Shen Ruoxi almost paid with her own life for it.
The girl on the couch moved her lips.
Shen Ruoxi opened her eyes slightly, even though her body was exhausted, she still tried her best to get closer to the girl, wanting to hear clearly what she was saying.
"Mother, I'm scared..."
Hearing these words, Shen Ruoxi could no longer control herself, and tears burst out.
The whole family placed their hopes on this girl, but who would have thought that she was only a thirteen-year-old child?
"Mother is here, don't be afraid Wanwan." Shen Ruoxi used all her strength to say this, and then her eyes went dark and she lost all consciousness.
She didn't know how long she slept, but when she woke up, Shen Ruoxi found herself lying on her bed. The sunlight from the window fell on her, and her whole body was warm.
"Princess, are you awake? Are you feeling unwell? Do you need a doctor?" The voice of a Baiyu clan guard was heard in my ears.
Shen Ruoxi covered her head and slowly stood up: "I'm fine, I just consumed too much spiritual energy. By the way, how is Wanwan?"
The young guard smiled brightly: "You are talking about Miss Awan, right? Miss Awan is fine now. The high priest and the commander are in her room now."
Shen Ruoxi frowned. Could it be that Wanwan had just recovered from her illness and they were urging her to train again? Do these people still have any humanity?
"I'm going to see Wanwan. Can you help me over there?" Shen Ruoxi tried. At this moment, she was limp all over. If no one supported her, she would probably fall down while walking.
The young guard was very enthusiastic and nodded. "Of course, the high priest has instructed that since you saved Miss Awan's life, you can always come if you want to see her in the future."
Shen Ruoxi breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I'll trouble you."
As soon as Shen Ruoxi entered the stilt house, she heard a scolding voice coming from inside, and her protective blood immediately boiled.
"Awan, from now on, you are not allowed to do such dangerous things again, understand?"
"I understand. Let's offer sacrifices to Auntie." The girl's voice was calm.
"Sister, please stop blaming Awan. She's doing this for the sake of the Baiyu people. But Awan, I have to tell you something. If you want to challenge Cheng Huang again in the future, you must ask me to come with you. Do you understand?"
"I understand, Aunt Commander." The girl's voice remained flat.
"Alright, alright, the child is so pitiful, let's go and let her have a good rest."
Shen Ruoxi stood at the door and quietly put away the forty-meter-long sword that she was about to extend.
Unexpectedly, the high priest and commander were not as cold-blooded and ruthless as she had imagined.
However, the girl was not what she imagined. Wanwan was lively and active by nature, always like a little elf, and could always bring happiness to those around her.
But the girl in front of him was so well-behaved, like a perfect doll made by a machine.
"Hey, the princess is here? How is your health?" The guard leader just walked to the door and found Shen Ruoxi, so he smiled and greeted her.
"The princess just woke up. She was worried about Miss Awan, so she asked her subordinates to help her over." The young guard explained.
"The princess cares so much about Awan and is willing to use up all her spiritual power for her. Have the princess and Awan known each other before?" The high priest seemed calm, but his eyes were unusually sharp.
Shen Ruoxi smiled faintly: "I grew up in the capital, so naturally I have never seen Miss Awan, but I felt a sense of affinity with her the first time I saw her."
The high priest nodded and said, "I see. Awan, why don't you come and thank your savior?"
The girl obediently turned over and got off the couch, came to Shen Ruoxi, and knelt on the ground without thinking.
Hearing the girl's knees touch the ground with a "bang", Shen Ruoxi's heart ached, and she hurried forward to help her up, but was stopped by the high priest.
"According to the rules of the White Feather Clan, the princess and Awan have no relationship, but she saved Awan's life, so Awan owes the princess a life. Awan must perform this great gift."
"Awan thanks the princess for saving her life." Awan prostrated herself on the ground and kowtowed heavily.
Shen Ruoxi couldn’t stop it, but her heart ached terribly.
She couldn't let the high priest doubt her motives for coming here, otherwise, it would be more difficult for her to destroy Wanwan's plan to become the leader and take Wanwan away from here.
After the girl finished her ceremony, the high priest and the commander prepared to leave. They looked at Shen Ruoxi: “The princess is still weak, why don’t you go back and rest early.”
Before Shen Ruoxi could say a few words to Wanwan, she was urged to leave. She felt as uncomfortable as if a cat was scratching her heart, but she couldn't show it, so she had to leave with them.
But then I heard the girl behind me speak.
"Aunt Priest, Awan is feeling unwell."
The high priest really stopped and looked at the girl with a frown: "What's wrong with you? Sister, go find a doctor."
"Can you let Sister Princess take a look for me?" The girl pointed at Shen Ruoxi and asked the high priest, as if she had a sudden idea.
The high priestess narrowed her eyes slightly, trying to see something from the girl's eyes, but she saw that the girl's eyes were as clear as water.
"Okay, don't delay too long. The princess is still weak and needs rest."
"Awan understands."
Seeing that the high priest and the commander had left, Shen Ruoxi felt a mixture of worry and joy. She was happy that she could stay, but at the same time she was worried about the girl's condition, so she hurried forward to check the girl's pulse.
Although the pulse is still a little weak, it has obviously recovered to a large extent. Logically, there shouldn't be any big problems. Why does Wanwan still feel uncomfortable?
Shen Ruoxi planned to give Wanwan another physical examination, but she didn't expect that when she looked up, she would see the girl's cute little face with a hint of cunning.
He was completely different from the obedient and dull person he was just now.
"I sent them away on purpose." The girl blinked and said in a low voice.
