Chapter 475 "Crisis Within the Ancient Forest (p2)"
Two hours later….
The first scene A'bone saw was her companions discussing the matter at hand when she came to. Initially she wanted to jump up and run for the poachers again; however, her friends wouldn't have it.
“A'bone, you mustn't go. I and the Missy have just investigated this from the outside and could tell they are n.o.bles of North Qing. They're very well prepared, at least three hundred strong. Right now they are all inside the forest so it's futile if you went by yourself."
Not moving an inch from the spot, the wild girl didn't know what to do at this point. The only thing that she knew was to let the tears flow as the voice choked in her throat.
This would be the first time Ling Yue and Lan Caier saw their friend in such a depressed state so neither of them was feeling well inside.
“A'bone, you should be glad that you were not in the ancient forest, otherwise who is going to save Roar and Purple." Sighing at the sight, Ling Yue steps forward to help her friend up from the ground.
“Chief, you mean Purple and Roar is still alive?" Jerking out from her grief, the wild girl could finally see the light again.
“Yes, when I was investigating around from the outer perimeter, I saw some of the poachers escorting them both around. But it was strange, their reactions weren't right and didn't show any resistance at all."
Because Lan Caier had went in the opposite direction of the old monster, only she had saw the scene. According to what she noticed, there was a lavishly dressed man that was riding atop of the giant elephant, obviously the leader of the group. Then through the information she received from her younger sister, Lan Caier could pretty much guess that must be the second young lord of the Kai Jiang Manor.
“Impossible, how can Purple obey others.” A'bone couldn't believe what she's hearing.
“Please don't be impulsive A'bone, there must be a reason for this. Considering Purple's strength and the other animals living here in the ancient forest, there's no way these people from the Kai Jiang Manor could've overtaken them all. After all, they've been self-reliant long before you were even here." Ling Yue's main body of concern lies with the possibility of a riot occurring among the animals here. If it does happen, the situation would become even harder to manage on top of the already disastrous fog plaguing the Northwest.
Kai Jiang Manor…. As if sudden remembering something important, A'bone abruptly cries out, "It's him!" Only now did she remember the event from half a year ago.
There was a boy, a weak and frail looking boy that got lost in the jungle before. According to the story she was given initially, the lad had lost his way and was attacked as a result of it. Then through some odd chance, A'bone ended up saving him and that's how their relations.h.i.+p began.
As someone that's never had any contact with the opposite s.e.x, it's not hard to imagine how easy it was for the girl to fall in love. Eventually she did and so did the boy, or so it seems from the surface anyways.
Finally, after much frustration and suspicion, A'bone eventually searched the man's possession and found the identification token of the Kai Jiang Manor. That's when the truth came out after she and her animal friends pressured him one night.
The man wasn't lost nor did he come without intent, he had ulterior motives from the very beginning. In the end A'bone became heartbroken and expelled her first crush. But because of how brief that event was, she actually forgot about it until now.
