Adopting A Stray Cat Chapter 1380: Ms. Muxi

Chapter 1380: Chapter 1380: Ms. Muxi

When everyone is silent, everything seems calm, but if one person becos the leader, many will follow suit.

The emotions of bla and grievance in the crowd were ignited, urging Clan Leader Mu Feng to release more of the water source, and they opened old grievances from three thousand years ago, accusing the Mu family of angering the Deity, causing all the mbers of the Mu Water Clan to bear the consequences.

At this mont, the flowing water source suddenly stopped. Looking at the slender tube that no longer flowed, people again felt panic in their hearts, fearing they had truly angered the Mu family, who might refuse to provide water for everyone.

This feeling of bla yet dependency had continued in the hearts of Mu Water Clan mbers for a long ti.

A graceful figure appeared atop the wall of the Chief Mansion, a young girl of fourteen or fifteen, wearing a light yellow top and a green skirt, with clear brows and bright eyes, standing gracefully.

She obviously heard those unpleasant words and nervously spoke to the crowd below, "Uncles and aunts, my father is not feeling well today, I will provide water for everyone in his place. My magic power is still relatively weak, please understand, I will certainly do my best."

Upon seeing the girl appear, Chen Pei’s eyes lit up, emitting a peculiar light. He raised his head, staring unblinkingly at that young girl in yellow and green attire.

Qin Sisi glanced at Chen Pei and coughed lightly, asking, "Who is that?"

Chen Pei ca back to himself, his face blushing slightly, replying softly, "That is Clan Leader Mu Feng’s younger daughter, Ms. Muxi."

Qin Sisi couldn’t resist her curiosity and asked, "Do you know her?"

Chen Pei’s face reddened further, stamring for a long ti before saying, "Five years ago, I was so thirsty that I fainted by the roadside, it was Ms. Muxi who saved , gave

a can of water, and so food."

Qin Sisi nodded in realization, thinking it could be considered a life-saving grace, no wonder Chen Pei’s gaze was so unusual towards Mu Xi.

As Mu Xi was young, and a girl, after glancing at each other, everyone finally quieted down, no longer shouting, and silently returned to the queue, preparing to fetch water.

Mu Xi breathed a sigh of relief, and her figure vanished from the wall. Soon, clear water began to flow from the extended slender tube again.

Everything seed to return to calm, but Qin Sisi faintly felt this day might not go smoothly.

Mu Xi was only in her teens. When she appeared on the wall, Qin Sisi used Divine Sense to take a look and could be sure Mu Xi’s magic strength was not strong. Releasing water continuously for a whole day seed too difficult for her.

Qin Sisi and Ye You originally planned to sneak into the Chief Mansion to find the three-thousand-year-old Mu Ze, but they saw the current unstable situation and decided to stay nearby to observe.

Chen Pei was also filled with concern for Mu Xi and chose to stay automatically.

Ye You found a reasonably clean stone near the Chief Mansion to sit down, placing Qin Sisi on his lap, gently rubbing her back.

Chen Pei sat directly on the ground, looking at the endless queue for water, with deep worry showing on his face.

Ti passed bit by bit, and the water from the slender tube beca thinner and thinner, taking longer and longer to fill a can, the emotions of bla and impatience spreading once more among the crowd.

As evening approached, the water from the slender tube turned into drips, and those who had endured for so long finally erupted.

"What’s going on, Ms. Muxi, can you handle it or not?"

"Ms. Muxi, you better call your father over! By the ti we get water, our family at ho will have already died of thirst."

"..."

The water from the slender tube thickened for a mont but soon returned to dripping again, it was clear Mu Xi’s magic power was indeed depleted.

People beca angrier, was this a joke? Without a Vajra Drill, yet attempting porcelain work, this concerned the critical water supply! How could the Mu family be so irresponsible?

Faces in the crowd showed anger, continuously urging Mu Xi to change soone to co over, urging gradually evolved into complaints, even curses.

Chen Pei could stand it no longer and stood up abruptly. He could feel Mu Xi’s helplessness and sadness, but he couldn’t help her, he only wished to comfort her, but even this small desire seed unattainable, the Chief Mansion’s wall was too high for him to climb.

Moreover, no matter how dissatisfied people were with the Mu family, the Clan Leader was the Clan Leader, ordinary clan mbers dared not climb the wall of the Chief Mansion.

Seeing Chen Pei’s intent, Qin Sisi quietly asked, "Want to go in?"

"Mm." Chen Pei instinctively responded, suddenly realizing, his just-returned pale face flushed again.

Qin Sisi raised her head to look at Ye You, the two have been together for so long, so words though unspoken, could be mutually understood.

Ye You placed Qin Sisi back on his shoulder, grabbed Chen Pei’s arm with one hand, and quickly walked to another section of the wall, then lightly leapt, jumping to the other side of the wall, entering the Chief Mansion of the Mu family.

Chen Pei’s face showed an incredulous expression, looking around in shock, unable to say a word.

Qin Sisi quietly reminded, "Don’t just stand there dazed, let’s go see Ms. Muxi!"

"Mm-hmm." Chen Pei ca to his senses, identified the direction, and imdiately lifted his foot toward Mu Xi’s location releasing the water source.

The three turned a corner and saw Mu Xi’s figure not far away.

The young girl was holding her hand over the entrance of a pipe roughly the sa diater as her hand, trying her best to cast Water Magic, releasing water for the crowd waiting outside.

But she was truly too exhausted, her light yellow clothes already soaked with sweat, her originally fluffy bangs hanging in strands on her forehead.

Mu Xi was crying as she released the water source, her delicate shoulders gently trembling, tears continuously flowing, leaving streaks on her fair and smooth face.

"Mu Xi." Chen Pei quickly approached and called her gently, his chest full of heartache, wishing to bear all Mu Xi’s toil and grievance.

Mu Xi blinked her tearful eyes, dazed for a while before hesitantly calling out Chen Pei’s na, asking in confusion, "How did you get in here? What are you going to do?"

Chen Pei awkwardly opened his mouth, found himself speechless, he was deeply worried for Mu Xi, wanted to co see her, but after seeing her, what then? He seed unable to do anything, lacked even the qualification to comfort her.

Moreover, their act of sneaking into the Chief Mansion by climbing over the wall was not exactly an honorable thing.
