Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Mother said to put down those herbs and leave!”
Though Xiao Xun’er’s voice was tender and soft, his tone was extrely stern. It scared the group of youths so much that they quickly threw the herbs down and ran down the mountain, fearful that if they were one step too late, they would be devoured by this monster!
They had never seen a two-year-old child emit such powerful energy. What else could he be if he was not a monster?
Xiao Xun’er bent down to pick up the dicine tray. The dicine tray was bigger than him but he did not feel the strain. He then toddled towards Gu Ruoyun with an expectant expression.
“Mother, Xun’er has chased those bad guys away.”
His eyes glead with a resplendent light as he stared unblinkingly at Gu Ruoyun.
If Xun’er had a little tail, Gu Ruoyun could imagine the little fellow wagging his tail fawningly.
“Xun’er is really clever.”
Gu Ruoyun stroked Xiao Xun’er’s head and smiled.
Xiao Xun’er continued to blink his large eyes. “Mother, do I get a reward?”
“A reward?”
Gu Ruoyun stroked her chin. Suddenly, she rembered sothing and pulled the slumbering ngng from the Ancient Divine Pagoda and threw it at the anticipating Xiao Xun’er.
“I’ll let you play with this fellow.”
Xiao Xun’er was imdiately attracted to ngng who was exploding with cuteness. His tiny hands stroked the little beast’s round body as his eyes filled with glee, “Thank you, Mother. Xun’er really likes it.”
Before ngng could react, it had been thoroughly ravaged in Xiao Xun’er’s hands. Its gaze was full of resentnt as it stared pitifully at Gu Ruoyun and its mouth squeaked and cried non-stop.
Sob, sob. Why must Master give to this wimpy brat?
Besides, out of so many spiritual beasts in the Ancient Divine Pagoda, why ?
“I’ve told your mother to take you to the First City. Why are you still here?”
Gu Ruoyun placed the dicine tray into the little maiden’s hands before she raised her brow and asked, “You are pretty talented when it cos to dicine. I wonder if you’ve read through the book I had given you?”
The little girl’s eyes lit up. “Are you that nice lady who had given the book on dicine three years ago?”
Three years ago, the little maiden was only three years old. Her mory was a little fuzzy so she had not rembered Gu Ruoyun. However, her mother would frequently ntion the cultivator who had given the book on dicine to her so she was quite curious about this cultivator.
“Big sister, I’ve read the book on dicine that you’ve given . Also, I’ve even followed the instructions in that book for my mother’s treatnt. Unfortunately, my learning skills aren’t good enough and I can’t cure my mother completely.”
The little maiden lowered her eyelids as her eyes filled with worry.
“Why didn’t you go to the First City?”
Gu Ruoyun raised her brow.
Even though the little maiden had not been to the First City in the past few years, if she had used her na in the Red Lotus Territory, her father would certainly help them! They would not have fallen so far either.
The little maiden bit her lips as she stared at Gu Ruoyun with tears in her eyes. “Mother had also asked to seek shelter from you in the First City, big sister, but Mother is sick. I don’t want to leave her alone. I had decided to go to the First City when Mother is all better.”
Gu Ruoyun fell silent for a mont before saying, “Take to your mother.”
“Alright.”
The little maiden finally smiled.
Big sister is so powerful. She can definitely cure my mother’s illness.
“Mother,” Xiao Xun’er pouted sulkily, “Godfather has told Xun’er that Xun’er should address mother’s brothers and sisters as ‘uncle’ and ‘aunt’. She is only a few years older than Xun’er but she keeps calling mother ‘big sister’. That ans that she’s one generation older than Xun’er. Xun’er doesn’t want to call her ‘aunt’.”
