Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The old tribe chief, however, remained stubborn in his beliefs. “What do you young folks understand? Those people were chosen by the High Priest to serve the gods! And as for Xiao Hua and Molly, they are the chosen holy maidens, the ultimate honor!”
Hearing this, the elderly members of the tribe didn’t know what to do. After so many years of influence, their thoughts were deeply ingrained, and they couldn’t be overturned by a few words.
He Zhu was infuriated, “Chief, why are you so stubborn? Do we have to wait until all of us are dead for you to believe?”
The chief sneered, “Deceptive words to mislead the masses!” Then, he looked at Ji Zan and Fu Shinan, “We don’t welcome intruders. Leave immediately, or don’t blame us for being impolite!”
Others, seeing this, once again raised the dart tubes, preparing to attack.
Seeing these people acting so unreasonably, Fu Shinan had no intention of playing the savior. He said directly, “In that case, let’s go! There’s no need to meddle any further!” With that, he turned and walked away.
Ji Zan gave the group a cold glance and followed Fu Shinan out.
He Zhu immediately joined in, saying, “I trust you guys. I’m coming with you!”
As they returned, they coincidentally ran into Sun Han and the others who had hurried over. Sun Han looked puzzled upon their return, “Brother Ji, what’s going on?”
Fu Shinan replied, “These people are beyond help. We’re not going to stick around and invite trouble.” They were willing to lend a hand to fellow beings, but it also depended on whether the individuals were willing.
Jasmine immediately looked at Ji Zan, “Benefactor, are you leaving?”
“You can’t understand human speech, can you? I said it was her who saved you! Don’t call me kind sir!” Ji Zan pointed to Fu Shinan and then walked away without looking back.
Xiao Chang’an, with his short legs, called out, “Wait for me, Uncle!” Man Yu and the others also looked puzzled, “Didn’t you say we were going to rest here for a few days? Are we leaving now?”
Fu Shinan briefly explained what had just happened.
Upon hearing this, Wei Xinyi, who rarely voiced her opinions, couldn’t help but say, “This is outrageous! Even if they’ve been isolated from the world and lack information, it’s no excuse for their ignorance! Sister Fu, let’s not bother with them! Without us, they seem to be doing just fine, falling for the High Priest’s deceit…”
Though Shui Ling’er didn’t speak, she held onto Fu Shinan’s hand, soothing her restless heart.
Molly, on the other hand, ignored the commotion, took a timid step forward, and called out, “Benefactor…”
Man Yu, feeling irritated, bumped into her, “I’ve noticed that the people here can’t understand english, huh? We’ve already said who saved you, so why are you still calling Ji Zan? Stop pretending to be innocent. I’ve seen all kinds of people; put away that fake innocence of yours…” With that, she turned and walked away.
Molly lifted her head, her gaze turning cold as she watched Manyu’s departing figure. Once everyone had moved away, she walked towards the valley with a chilly expression.
Ji Zan and the others returned to the courtyard after not much time and rested in place.
Upon learning that these people were stubbornly resistant, Professor Feng wore a pained expression, “Ignorant folk…”
He Zhu stood on the side, not daring to speak.
MO Cheng was about the same age as He Zhu, both in their early twenties. He patted He Zhu’s shoulder and said, “Don’t feel too much pressure. We get along well, and since you’ve decided to follow us, be a good teammate. We’ll help each other, and we won’t abandon you.”
Upon hearing this, He Zhu looked at MO Cheng with a grateful expression and nodded vigorously.
Now that the vehicle was out of fuel, that was one of the reasons everyone had decided to temporarily stay. Ji Zan once again asked for everyone’s opinion on continuing on foot now that they had run out of fuel.
Given the circumstances, everyone chose to move forward. Especially Fu Shinan, she was eager to see if this last hopeful place would allow her to manifest her abilities.
Suddenly, He Zhu asked, “When you mentioned ‘fuel,’ are you talking about gasoline?”
Fu Shinan nodded, “Yes, can you get some? You’ve been living isolated from the world, right? Yet, you know about gasoline?”
He Zhu smiled, “Although we’re self-sufficient, there are specialized people who go out to gather and exchange resources every once in a while. Most people just don’t go out. We bought gasoline before, we have six big barrels of it in the tribal chief’s residence. We just don’t know if it’s still usable.”
Sun Han eagerly suggested, “Brother Ji, let’s go check it out. If the car can run, it’ll definitely be faster than walking.”
Ji Zan nodded, “Can you lead the way?”
He Zhu was delighted to be able to help, “Of course, just let me know when you want to go.”
Ji Zan said, “After dark, we’ll make our move..”
