Adopting A Stray Cat Chapter 1383: The Elder’s Prophecy

Chapter 1383: Chapter 1383: The Elder’s Prophecy

Mu Ting knew her father’s worries and quickly replied, "Father, don’t worry. I’ve asked Mu Wen and Mu Chi to take turns releasing the water source; nothing will go wrong."

Hearing Mu Ting’s words, Mu Feng finally felt relieved and let out a long sigh.

Mu Xi seized the mont to say to Mu Feng, "Father, can you guess who saved you?"

Looking at his lovely and adorable youngest daughter, Mu Feng felt much better and whispered, "I also want to know who saved , quickly bring him out, I want to thank him properly."

Mu Xi then pointed to Ye You and Qin Sisi and said, "Father, it was them who saved you."

Mu Feng, with his unclear eyes, looked at Qin Sisi and Ye You, sowhat puzzled, "You are...?"

Mu Xi pretended to be mysterious and said to Mu Feng, "Father, don’t rush, guess where they ca from first."

With the intention of giving her father a surprise, she deliberately did not imdiately tell Mu Feng the origins of Qin Sisi and Ye You.

Mu Feng thought for a long ti but couldn’t figure it out, so he had to shake his head. Ye You seed unfamiliar, but since there were several thousand people in the Mu Water Clan, he didn’t know everyone anyway.

Mu Xi leaned close to Mu Feng’s ear and whispered, "Father, I’ll tell you an incredible piece of good news, they co from outside."

"Outside? Which outside?" Mu Feng still didn’t quite understand. After all, that prophecy was from so long ago that he hadn’t thought about it.

Mu Xi hurriedly said, "Father, outside ans the world beyond, the outside of the Deep Pupil Desert."

Mu Feng’s expression froze, and his unclear eyes were imdiately filled with complex emotions, but joy was clearly perceptible.

"Are you saying, outside the Deep Pupil Desert?" Mu Feng asked again in disbelief.

"Yes." Mu Xi nodded affirmatively, her eyes sparkling like the stars in the night sky.

"Quick, help

up." Mu Feng hastily ordered Mu Ting, asking Mu Ting to support him up.

He steadily looked at Ye You, scanning him up and down several tis. Even with Ye You’s aloof personality, Mu Feng’s intense gaze made him uncomfortable.

"Three thousand years, the prophecy is finally coming true." He murmured, so moved that he almost shed tears.

"Fourth Miss, what exactly is happening?" Qin Sisi and Ye You were bewildered by the situation in front of them and asked Mu Xi.

Only then did Mu Xi explain to them.

It turned out that Pu Lizi, the grand elder who was killed by the Deity back then, possessed the mana to predict the future. He made a prophecy before his death, saying that the Mu Water Clan would encounter a great calamity lasting for many years.

And the one who could lead them out of the abyss of misery was not soone from within the Mu Water Clan, but a sage from afar, beyond the Deep Pupil Desert.

In the legends of the Mu Water Clan, there had always been the saying that there were other humans living outside the Deep Pupil Desert, but no one had ever gone out, and no one had ever co in.

After making this prophecy, Pu Lizi, the grand elder, passed away. Initially, people didn’t take his prophecy too seriously.

But soon after, Mu Ze injured the Deity, Inkwest City. The angry Deity took back the water source flowing from Kurosawa Highland, plunging the Mu Water Clan into extre water scarcity, just as Pu Lizi had foretold, marking the beginning of the great calamity for the Mu Water Clan.

Now, three thousand years have passed since the Deity took back the water source, and the water shortage issue for the Mu Water Clan has persisted for three thousand years, exactly as Pu Lizi predicted, a long-lasting calamity.

Since the first half was true, there was no reason for the second half to be false.

Thus, people believed in Pu Lizi’s prophecy, especially the Mu family, who have struggled to endure over the years.

They have been pleading for many years, hoping that the sage to save the Mu Water Clan, coming from afar beyond the Deep Pupil Desert, would appear quickly.

Generation after generation has passed, and Pu Lizi’s prophecy has been passed down to this day.

However, among the ordinary populace living in extre water scarcity and hardship, complaints and dependence on the Mu family have increased, but there is so skepticism about the external sage ntioned in the prophecy.

Over ti, more and more people have begun to doubt the authenticity of this prophecy, and so families no longer ntion this ancient prophecy.

Only the Mu family has insisted on treating this prophecy as a sacred ancestral rule, solemnly passing it to their descendants, blessing them to patiently wait and believe that the external sage will surely appear one day.

Unfortunately, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointnt. Generations of the Mu family have perished, but the sage from outside has never appeared.

Clan Leader Mu Feng once thought that he wouldn’t see it in his lifeti and could only let his children continue to wait.

At this mont, Ye You and Qin Sisi appeared in front of him, telling him they had co from the unknown far reaches beyond the Deep Pupil Desert.

The climate in the Deep Pupil Desert is extrely dry, the environnt is exceptionally harsh, and thousands of demonic beasts reside within. To traverse the Deep Pupil Desert and arrive here, one must indeed have so real abilities.

The prophecy said that the sage from beyond the Deep Pupil Desert will rescue the Mu Water Clan and lead the clan mbers out of their misery, but it didn’t say that everyone who cos from beyond the desert is the sage.

Whether Ye You and Qin Sisi are the sages ntioned in the prophecy is actually debatable.

However, over the years, waiting for the external sage has almost beco the spiritual support of the Mu family. Whenever they felt they couldn’t hold on any longer, they would silently comfort and encourage themselves to hang on a bit longer, maybe the sage from outside the desert would arrive soon.

That is why the appearance of Ye You and Qin Sisi has excited the Mu family so much; they have longed for the sage for so long, and finally seeing two people appear, they are single-mindedly convinced that they are the ones who can save the Mu Water Clan.

For Chen Pei, an ordinary mber of the populace, the prophecy doesn’t resonate that deeply. Comparatively, he is more concerned about the future water problem.

"Young Master Yeyou, you just ntioned that Clan Leader Mu Feng’s Magic Source is severely damaged, so please find a way to heal him!" Chen Pei asked in a low voice.

"Yes, Young Master Yeyou, I beg you, please restore my father’s health!" Mu Xi also pleaded.

Ye You shook his head slightly and replied, "Repairing the Magic Source requires a seventh-level perfect-grade Jade lting Pill, which I cannot produce at this mont; I can only help alleviate his symptoms but cannot cure him."

Mu Xi felt a sinking in her heart and was about to plead again when Mu Feng already spoke, "It’s alright. I’ve lived so many years and have co to terms with life and death. As long as the sage can save the Mu Water Clan, I’ll have no regrets even if I die."

Knowing his own physical condition very well, Mu Feng had been persevering for a long ti, willingly damaging his own body. He didn’t want to disappoint the clansn of the Mu Water Clan or the Mu family.
