Chapter 390 Goodbye
Chapter 390 Goodbye
Sixteen years of the Great Wilderness
Early summer fifteenth
Moon Valley Grove
The bright moon hangs high, a gentle breeze blows, and fireflies twinkle.
"It hurts, it hurts so much, where am I?" A clear, childlike voice came from the deep cave in a dark grove of trees.
Mu Qingqing rubbed her forehead, straightened her small body, and stood up unsteadily. She patted the dust off her clothes, shook her head, rubbed her eyes, and tried to see what was going on.
It was pitch black all around, visibility was extremely poor, and she couldn't see anything clearly. Mu Qingqing limped forward in the darkness, her path blocked by darkness. Suddenly, a pebble fell, and she turned around warily to look behind her. She saw a halo of light on the ground not far away: "Great, I'm saved...!" She staggered towards the light.
She hadn't gone far when Mu Qingqing vaguely heard a strange noise behind her. She stopped warily to see what was going on. Unexpectedly, when she turned around, a huge white ball of fur rolled towards her. Before she could dodge, she was knocked down by the white ball of fur.
A cloud of dust billowed up around them, and Mu Qingqing felt as if her body was being suppressed by a colossal object, unable to move. As the dust slowly dissipated, a pair of bright eyes, like night elves dancing in the darkness, appeared and disappeared.
A bright, clear white wolf appeared and disappeared in the afterglow of the moonlight. The scene was quite beautiful. Mu Qingqing looked surprised and softly called out, "A wolf...?"
As the smoke cleared, the white wolf, seeing stars, realized that the person beneath him was a human girl. Instinctively assuming she was one of the assassins who had been chasing him, he immediately became alert. His face hardened as he glared at Mu Qingqing, raising his sharp claws and pressing them against her neck without a word, demanding, "Tell me! Who are you? Who sent you?"
"A wolf... it can talk...?" Mu Qingqing's focus was different from the white wolf. This was the first time she had ever seen a talking white wolf. She usually only heard of white wolves from people's mouths, and now it was right in front of her. She wasn't afraid; instead, she was unusually excited and unusually calm. With a mischievous grin, she carefully removed the white wolf's claws from her neck, stared at it wide-eyed, and then approached it intimately, sniffing it deeply.
This action completely stunned the white wolf. It disgustedly avoided Mu Qingqing, its sharp claws digging into Mu Qingqing's tender neck as it continued to threaten, "What are you doing? I'm asking you a question! And instead, you're sniffing me? Be honest and tell me now, or I'll kill you...!"
Mu Qingqing absentmindedly tried to approach the white wolf, not paying any attention to what it was saying. Her behavior was unusually strange and unpredictable. She gave a wicked smile, moved the white wolf's claws away again, and then, taking advantage of the situation, lifted the white wolf's chin: "You smell so good, and your voice is so beautiful!"
This frivolous and nonsensical behavior left White Wolf speechless. This was White Wolf's first time communicating with a human. What was going on? Was it a language barrier? Or was something else...? He felt something was off, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. This girl in front of him clearly didn't understand what he was saying.
He shook his head vigorously, trying to calm himself down, and warned Mu Qingqing, "What nonsense are you spouting? What do you mean 'it sounds good'? Are you really not afraid of dying? Stop trying to fool me with your sweet talk, I'm not buying it. I just told you to be honest, be honest, and you didn't listen to a word I said?"
