Chapter 46 She doesn’t want him to become the second Jiang Nian

Profit, territory, resources… Even beastmen would go to great lengths, raise armies and invade because of these things. The cruel scenes before her, devoid of any humanity, were like a dark vortex, pulling her in, she couldn’t struggle free, and she even forgot her ability to act. What should she do next? Seeing the situation getting worse, Guo Xia couldn’t hold back any longer.

He pulled Jiang Li to hide behind a secluded cave. “Jiang Li, stay here, don’t go out, understand?” Jiang Li, who had slightly regained her senses, heard Guo Xia’s words and quickly reached out to grab his arm. “Guo Xia, what are you going to do?” “There are too many casualties now, I’m going to save those who are injured, otherwise, they will die.”

Jiang Li pursed her lips, the words “I’ll go with you” never came out. She knew that if she said those words, she would be causing Guo Xia more trouble. Seeing his furrowed brows, Jiang Li forced herself to hold back. She had already caused him trouble by coming here, she couldn’t add more. “Okay, I’ll wait for you here, be careful.” “Yes, I’ll keep an eye on the three of them too.” “Okay.” Guo Xia nodded and then bent down, sneaking forward quickly. Jiang Li hid behind the cave, surrounded by the screams of the wounded and the clamor of weapons.

She hid while observing her surroundings, in case the three little ones passed by and she didn’t see them. Just then, a boy about the same size as the three little ones suddenly emerged from behind a cave not far away.

 He was covered in dirt, his face was a mixture of tears and dirt. He limped and dodged the war, there was a bloody gash on his left calf. The boy gritted his teeth and walked quickly, enduring the pain, afraid of being discovered by the Black Bear tribe and killed. But the goddess of luck did not favor him, he was spotted by a Black Bear tribe member covered in blood not far away, who strode towards him with a blood-stained long sword.

The boy’s face turned pale, he used all his strength to run forward. But he tripped over a stone in front of him and fell heavily to the ground. His knees and elbows were scraped, the wound on his leg seemed to be deeper, and the blood was flowing more and more. “No… no… please, spare me.” But the Black Bear tribe members had no sympathy for these weaklings, their minds were filled with hatred for the Snake Tribe for not giving them food.

His hateful eyes gradually became greedy, as if he was admiring food. Jiang Li was shocked. Did they want to take the snakes back to eat as food? “No… please… who will save me…” The boy became more and more panicked, tears involuntarily rolling down his cheeks.

 The boy completely broke down, no matter how much he begged, the Black Bear tribe member remained unmoved. Looking at the boy’s mournful face and the sound of his pleading cries, Jiang Li’s heart felt as if it was being pierced by sharp needles. The boy’s appearance reminded her of Jiang Nian. Her child, when he was thrown into the deep sea, did he also cry helplessly like this boy?

 She even had a hallucination, Jiang Nian’s white and tender face and the boy’s face in front of her slowly merged together. Seeing this, Jiang Li couldn’t hold back any longer. She had to save him!

 She didn’t want this child to become another Jiang Nian! Jiang Li quickly took out her dagger from her backpack. As she slowly raised the knife, about to strike, Jiang Li narrowed her eyes and quickly threw the dagger.

 Pffft—Blood splattered. The dagger accurately pierced the Black Bear tribe member’s neck. Warm blood sprayed onto the boy’s face and body.

He watched in disbelief as the Black Bear tribe member fell to the ground weakly. The sudden change also startled the boy. Seeing that no one noticed, Jiang Li quickly ran forward, pulled the dagger out of the Black Bear tribe member’s neck, and grabbed the boy’s arm, running back to where they were hiding. “Are you okay?” Jiang Li wiped the blood off the boy’s face with her hand and asked him softly.

The boy slowly came back to his senses, noticing the person who had just saved him. He knew her, the female who defeated their Snake warrior, Lei Meng, in the square. “You saved me?” The boy stared at Jiang Li in astonishment, his dull eyes filled with disbelief. Seeing that the boy spoke, Jiang Li breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, he was okay.

But seeing the boy’s bleeding leg, she panicked again. The wound on his leg was not light, but if it wasn’t treated, he would either bleed to death or die from infection. But she didn’t have any bandages for external wounds in her backpack. Jiang Li pursed her lips, thought for a moment, and decided to ask the system for help. Jiang Li turned her back, covered her mouth and secretly called out to the system. “System, system, where are you? Can you hear me?

” “I can hear, I can hear, please answer.” The system on the other side also pretended to be busy. “Do you have any medicine for external wounds, alcohol, bandages, anything like that?” “Yes, do you want them?” “Yes, the kid behind me is injured, I don’t have any in my backpack.” This time, the system didn’t haggle with her and directly gave her a bottle of medicine and a bandage. “This medicinal powder is very effective for treating external wounds for beastmen.” “Okay, thank you.” With the medicine and bandage, Jiang Li quickly turned back.

 “Wait, what is this?” Facing the things Jiang Li suddenly took out, the boy was scared and used his hand to block them. “This is medicine, it’s used to treat your external wounds.” Jiang Li patiently explained. “Really?” The boy swallowed, blinking his eyes in confusion. He didn’t disbelieve her.

But she was an outsider after all, and she had killed the giant python, even though she had just saved him, he was still a little wary. Jiang Li naturally understood what the boy meant, she smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t harm you. If I wanted to harm you, I wouldn’t have saved you just now.”

 The boy heard this, thought about it, and it did make sense. So, he no longer stopped Jiang Li’s actions, letting her treat his wound. “Hold on, it’ll hurt a little. Keep it down, don’t attract the Black Bear tribe.” The boy nodded, his hands tightly covering his mouth. The moment the powder was sprinkled, a stinging sensation stronger than the wound came, the boy’s eyes rolled up in pain, and he broke out in a cold sweat. After the powder was evenly sprinkled, Jiang Li quickly took out the bandage and wrapped it around him. “Done.” The stinging pain in his leg gradually subsided, the boy slowly released his hands. His lips were slightly pale, and his voice was weak. “Thank you.”

 “You’re welcome, I actually have some questions for you, do you know Hu Lao Da and the others?”
