Chapter 163: Chapter 163: Kill (3)_1

"I’m hungry, there’s nothing I can do about it!" Yuanqiu said innocently.

Dugu Qianye took out some dried food she had prepared earlier, and although Yuanqiu looked down on it a bit, seeing that there was nothing else to eat, it stretched out its paw and took it.

"Qiuqiu, how long have you been here?" Dugu Qianye asked.

Little Baiqiu, munching on a piece of dried meat, thought for a moment and said, "A long time."

"Who used to get food for you before?" Dugu Qianye continued to ask. Although it hadn’t been long, Dugu Qianye had noticed that Little Baiqiu refused to eat raw food; it only ate cooked food.

"Bad Keke cooked for me. Bad Keke cooked for me for two years, but one day she wanted to cook me for a meal. So mean!" Little Baiqiu said, "After that, everyone wanted to cook me, so I ran away. And then I went a long time without eating."

Sweat... Its "long time" was just a few days, of course, to a foodie like it, half a day without eating counted as a long time already.

"Do you know why they wanted to eat you?" Dugu Qianye asked.

Little Baiqiu shook its head, indicating it didn’t know either.

Having observed the surroundings, Dugu Qianye returned to the camp.

"Miss Qianye." Dugu Qianye had just returned when Hei Zi called out to her.

"What is it?" Dugu Qianye stopped and asked.

"You know we came here to look for someone," Hei Zi said, "We’ve got some information that the person you’re looking for appeared here."

Dugu Qianye nodded, saying, "I heard from Fen Jian."

"The information we received was that there were two men who appeared here three years ago, their appearance very similar to your grandfather and the headmaster of Empire College. However, it was said that one of them was injured," Hei Zi said. "But we hadn’t started searching when we arrived here and ran into people from Divine Temple. We tried to retreat but then realized the island was surrounded by Sea Phantom Beasts."

"I don’t know if it’s them," Dugu Qianye said, "You all rest here; I’ll go with my uncle to check in various towns."

Hei Zi wanted everyone to go together, but thinking of their injuries, he had to give up the idea.

Dugu Qianye discussed with Mo Chi and the rest, and the six of them split up to search, asking around in each small town. There were very few outsiders on these islands, so if her grandfather and the others were here, they should be known upon inquiry.

After Dugu Qianye and the Mo Family brothers left, Dahuzi came over to Hei Zi and said, "Pavilion Master, that brother is really amazing. Just one of his elixirs greatly healed my wound. What kind of person is he to have an elixir for curing Phantom Beasts!"

"A Marquis of the Mors Empire, the first-place winner of the Four Empires’ contest," Hei Zi laughed and said. "But none of that stature matters; let’s see if our Hall Master can give him another identity to pull him to our side. Haha!"

Dahuzi looked at Hei Zi and said, "Pavilion Master, you have such a sly smile!"

Hei Zi slapped his fan on Dahuzi’s head and said, "What sly smile? I am being astute! Now, if you have nothing else to do, go back and heal your wounds! Truly, if you don’t get taught a lesson for a day, you forget your own surname!"

After leaving the camp, Dugu Qianye started searching in the area she was responsible for. The island wasn’t very large, but there were several small towns.

"Sister, do you really think Grandpa could be here?" Xiaohuo, carrying Dugu Qianye in flight, asked.

They had already searched two towns, but no outsiders had come in the past three years. Some people were still in a state of panic, hiding in their houses at the sight of Dugu Qianye. If outsiders had been here, their reaction would not be like this.

"I don’t know. Not finding them could be good news, too, at least it means they haven’t fallen into Divine Temple’s hands," Dugu Qianye said. What might happen if they had been captured by the Divine Temple was something she dared not imagine.

Just then, Dugu Qianye noticed a little boy on a mountain ahead, perched precariously on a cliff, reaching for something. When he couldn’t touch it, he moved further out. Finally getting a hold of it, he lost his balance and tumbled down the cliff.

"Ah—"

"Xiaohuo!" Dugu Qianye shouted, and Xiaohuo immediately flew over, catching the falling little boy.

The little boy looked to be about 10 years old, his slight frame, eyes tightly shut, his face pale from fright. Realizing he was no longer falling, he slowly opened his eyes, to see a brother who looked like an angel.

"Are you an angel?" the little boy asked.

"Pfft." Xiaohuo couldn’t help but laugh. Carrying Dugu Qianye and the little boy, he landed on the mountaintop and then transformed into human form, saying, "What’s an angel?"

"You, you turned into a person?!" The little boy stuttered in shock as he looked at Xiaohuo, who had transformed into a young girl.

"Hehe," Dugu Qianye smiled. "Don’t do anything this dangerous again."

After saying this, Dugu Qianye was ready to leave with Xiaohuo.

"Are you outsiders?" the little boy curiously asked Dugu Qianye as she began to leave.

"How do you know about outsiders?" Dugu Qianye asked.

"There are outsiders in our village," the little boy said. "There aren’t many people on the island, and I’ve seen them with my father. I haven’t seen you before."

It was then that Dugu Qianye noticed the herb the little boy was holding. Recalling his mention of outsiders in the village, her heart stirred, and she asked, "Why are you gathering herbs in such a dangerous place? Who are you picking them for?"

"They’re for my grandfather," the little boy said.

So it was his grandfather. A flicker of disappointment crossed Dugu Qianye’s face, but she smiled at the little boy and said, "Since your grandpa is ill, you better get back quickly. And don’t do risky things like this again."

"It’s not my grandpa, it’s another grandpa. The grandpa who came from outside," the little boy explained.

"Do you know the name of that grandpa?" Dugu Qianye asked.

Hei Zi had said that the two men who looked like her grandfather and the headmaster, one of them was injured. Could this person be one of them?

The little boy looked at Dugu Qianye, struggling with his expression. After a long time, he said, "Grandpa told me not to tell anyone. Although you saved me, brother, I still can’t tell you."

Dugu Qianye laughed, not expecting such a young boy to have such principles.

"Little brother, I’m looking for someone—my grandfather and the headmaster. I want to know if they are the outsiders you mentioned. Plus, you said someone was injured, and I happen to be good at Alchemy. Maybe I can heal him."

"Oh, in that case, come with me to see. Since you saved me, grandpa shouldn’t be angry," the boy said. He then ran to a nearby rock, retrieved a basket, put the herbs inside, and then hoisted the basket onto his back.
