Adopting A Stray Cat Chapter 1384: The Elder in the Secret Chamber

Chapter 1384: Chapter 1384: The Elder in the Secret Chamber

Qin Sisi felt deep respect for this old man who had been struggling for so many years; to be able to selflessly dedicate when capable, and to face weakness with tranquility. It was clear he was kind-hearted and broad-minded.

Ye You paused for a mont and advised Mu Feng, "Chief Mu Feng, I must remind you, your Magic Source is now extrely fragile and can no longer withstand the release of much Magic Power. You can’t release Water Magic anymore in the future."

Mu Feng’s expression changed, and he blurted out, "What should we do about this?"

He was rotating with his three sons to release the water source. If he withdrew, the pressure on his sons would increase significantly, and his daughter was too young and too weak to sustain for long.

In this case, the Mu family would suffer even more. If one day they truly couldn’t hold on, the water shortage problem of the Mu Water Clan would beco even more severe.

Mu Xi’s eyes rolled, and she said crisply, "Father, don’t worry, isn’t there an expert from the external world here? This Magic Cat Lord’s Water Magic is particularly amazing. I managed just now thanks to her."

As she spoke, she pointed with her palm at Qin Sisi, looking very certain.

She had just seen Qin Sisi release the water source with her own eyes and heard Chen Pei recount how Qin Sisi saved him and sent water to his ho. She was already quite sure about Qin Sisi’s powerful Water Magic.

Mu Feng looked skeptically at the elegant white cat sitting on Ye You’s shoulder and hesitantly said, "Magic Cat Lord?"

Qin Sisi replied loud and clear, "Chief Mu Feng, nice to et you. My na is Qin Sisi."

Mu Feng didn’t care about the white cat’s na. He asked directly, "Do you really know Water Magic?"

Qin Sisi said nothing, her gaze slightly shifted, spotting a teacup on the table. She raised her paw lightly, releasing a stream of clear water into the cup, then released a wisp of Wind Attribute Magic Power, raising the cup and sending it in front of Mu Feng.

Mu Feng’s heart raced as he shakily held the cup and took a sip, finding it sweet and refreshing, his whole body instantly relaxed with pleasure.

He said with a joyful expression, "Thank you, Magic Cat Lord, but how long will you stay here?"

Qin Sisi paused. She likely wouldn’t stay here too long. After obtaining the Life Divine Water, she and Ye You needed to move on to the next place to seek the Fourth Divine Life Water.

She could help them for a while, but not for a lifeti.

Teaching a man to fish is better than giving him a fish. When she thought of this saying, she made up her mind and said loudly to Mu Feng, "I will stay here to release the water source for you until Young Master Ye You heals your Magic Source completely."

Ye You frowned and reminded, "Sisi, that might take a long ti."

Qin Sisi nodded, gazing into Ye You’s eyes, and gently said, "I understand, but don’t you need to upgrade your Alchemy anyway? Staying here for a bit longer won’t have much impact, will it?"

Comparatively, the situation in Stoning Plain is much simpler than No Delusion Deep Sea and Dark Forest.

Ye You hesitated a little, then agreed to Qin Sisi’s arrangent. To fully restore her body, it was essential to collect the Life Divine Water and upgrade Alchemy; neither could be neglected, and upgrading Alchemy first was not impossible.

However, Ye You took the opportunity to propose a condition: "I have a way to save you, but it will take ti, and moreover I have one condition."

Mu Feng said respectfully, "Young Master Ye You, please speak."

Ye You said solemnly, "I want to et Mu Ze, who has lived for three thousand years."

Mu Feng’s face changed drastically, and both Mu Ting and Mu Xi beca nervous.

For so many years, no one dared to ntion Mu Ze’s na in their presence because Mu Ze was the sinner of the Mu Water Clan. Had he not angered the Deity, the Deity wouldn’t have retracted the water source that flowed from Kurosawa Highland, and the Mu Water Clan wouldn’t live in such a miserable and helpless environnt.

"The patriarch does not et anyone." Mu Feng lowered his eyes and softly replied.

Ye You sneered and said, "It seems the legendary three-thousand-year life is just a rumor."

Mu Feng imdiately denied, "No, the patriarch is indeed still alive. The Mu family has never deceived anyone."

"Words are not proof; seeing is believing," Ye You said decisively, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.

Mu Feng hesitated; three years ago, this matter was an unspoken wound of the Mu family.

Qin Sisi gently persuaded, "Chief Mu Feng, since Mu Ze is still alive, why not let us et him? Don’t you think we are experts from the external world, here to save the Mu Water Clan?"

Mu Ting, Mu Xi, and Chen Pei all looked at Mu Feng with curiosity; though Mu Ting and Mu Xi were descendants of the Mu family, they too had never seen the three-thousand-year-old patriarch. It was impossible not to be curious, but the matter was taboo in the Mu family.

Mu Feng was silent for a while and suddenly asked, "Are you going to Kurosawa Highland in the future?"

"Yes, definitely going," Ye You promptly gave a definite answer.

Upon hearing Ye You’s answer and seeing Ye You’s determined eyes, Mu Feng finally wavered. The prophecy of an expert from the external world finally coming to save the Mu Water Clan might also bring closure to the patriarch’s situation.

So, he quietly said, "Alright, I’ll take you to see him."

Saying that, he slowly stood up, took a keychain from beneath his bed, and walked outside with shuffling steps.

Qin Sisi and the others followed him outside, yet Chief Mu Feng wasn’t planning to go out but to close the door. Once he closed the door and turned around, he saw a group of people closely following him.

Mu Feng frowned and said, "You all step aside first. I’ll say ’go’ when it’s ti to go."

"Yes, father." Mu Xi quickly answered as a representative, and the others silently made way.

Mu Feng walked along the path they cleared, arriving at two cabinets. He picked up a key and gently turned it, then pushed forcefully, revealing a staircase extending downward.

Mu Ting and Mu Xi marveled at it, while Qin Sisi and Ye You just silently glanced at each other.

Chen Pei walked at the very end, afraid Chief Mu Feng would forbid him from going down. Fortunately, Chief Mu Feng didn’t ntion anyone being unable to go down, so Chen Pei followed as well.

At the very front was Chief Mufeng, turning through one staircase after another, with the light growing dimr and dimr.

Eventually, they arrived at the very bottom of the secret chamber, the most hidden place, extrely silent, where even a needle dropped could be heard.

In this final secret chamber, there were no other objects, only a bed on which an elderly man with white hair lay.
