Because of the flying sharp stone, the giant savage crow's attack, which was originally aimed directly at the young woman's head, deviated and landed close to her. Although it tore her clothes, at least her life was not in danger.
Li Si watched the departing young woman with lingering reluctance, yet there was nothing he could do.
However, the thought that his attack had actually helped the woman filled him with joy.
Li Sisui stood there blankly for a long time, as if a black and white picture had suddenly come into color, unable to calm the turmoil in his heart.
My once calm heart felt as if a pebble had suddenly fallen into it, creating ripples.
On the mountaintop.
The crowd gathered around the young woman. Even Dongfang Bubai, the head of the outer sect, kept his head down and dared not look directly at her, only observing her out of the corner of his eye.
Another woman in green surrounded the young woman, her hands flashing with light, seemingly doing something.
After a short while, the woman in green let out a long breath and said:
"I'm not seriously injured, just my clothes are torn. It seems we were lucky to have that flying rock, which caused the barbarian crow's attack to go astray, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable!"
Dongfang Bubai quickly echoed:
"Miss, you are blessed by Heaven and will surely be alright."
While speaking, he kept his head down, as if straightening his chest and raising his head to speak was some kind of outrageous act.
The young woman, addressed as "Miss," said thoughtfully:
"It was my own carelessness and negligence. Brother Bubai, there's no need to blame yourself. Let's just let this matter go, and I won't report it to my father."
Dongfang Bubai, who had been standing ramrod straight, almost burying his head in the ground, relaxed his tense back after hearing the young woman's words. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief and quickly kowtowed, saying:
"Thank you for not blaming me, Miss!"
The young woman continued:
"However, the sudden appearance of two adult barbarian crows in the outer sect is still somewhat suspicious. I hope Brother Bubai will not hesitate to enlighten me."
Upon hearing the young woman's words, Dongfang Bubai smiled wryly to himself. After a moment's thought, he cautiously said:
"The sudden appearance of these two adult savage crows is indeed strange. At first glance, more than ten tribesmen have been killed or wounded, but the corpses are mostly intact. Their behavior doesn't seem like hunting for food, but rather like venting their anger. A few days ago, a juvenile savage crow was killed here. I wonder if this is the reason for their appearance?"
The young woman nodded noncommittally and said:
"That's possible. However, the efficiency of early warning and rescue in the outer sect urgently needs to be improved. If I hadn't taken action, the losses would have been incalculable. Brother Bu Bai has been in charge of the outer sect for many years and should have a deep understanding of this. In recent years, there have been fewer and fewer new people and the inner sect has suffered a decline in talent. If we still don't take the ordinary clansmen of the outer sect seriously, I'm afraid you know the stakes involved without me having to explain."
