Chapter 1218: Chapter 1211: Fula’s Intuition

"Er..." Luo’er’s eyes darted around, and he seemed a bit incoherent.

"Sigh, I just knew it, you’re always like this." Tangmo gently sighed and showed an expression of regret.

"Actually..." Luo’er hesitated, wondering whether or not to tell her about Tangmo’s origins.

"Actually what?" Tangmo tilted her head and asked.

"No, nothing, I just wanted to tell you not to be too sad, after all, you still have me." Luo’er shook his head, smiling somewhat guiltily.

Hearing his words, Tangmo didn’t speak right away but stared at him with a meaningful look and finally smiled again, shaking her head and saying, "Since when did you become so sweet-tongued?"

"Hey, are you saying I didn’t know how to speak before?" Luo’er blinked and asked.

"What do you think," Tangmo squinted her eyes at him, a faint smile on her face, "sometimes I really think that you’re the girl, and I’m the boy."

Actually, Tangmo didn’t say it outright, but she had already seen that Luo’er was hiding something from her. Like she said, Luo’er was not good at lying; the moment he spoke against his heart, the micro-expressions on his face would definitely betray him.

However, Tangmo didn’t expose Luo’er’s intention because her intuition also told her that if Luo’er hadn’t spoken up, he must have had his reasons, and it wasn’t to harm her.

She could distrust anyone, but she absolutely trusted Luo’er. He wasn’t the selfish type; on the contrary, at times Tangmo wished he could be a bit more selfish and think more for himself.

"So saccharine, truly nauseating," at that moment, they simultaneously heard a familiar voice in their heads.

Tangmo sighed and said irritably, "Do you really enjoy being a third wheel that much?"

"Bad woman, get it straight, I am Luo’er’s guardian, and I must stay by his side to protect him from women like you," Fulajie’er suddenly popped out of thin air, staring at Tangmo.

"No need to be on guard against one of your own, that’s not right," Luo’er said from the side.

"I’m not arguing with you, bad woman," Fulajie’er said and then looking worriedly at Luo’er, she added, "Luo’er, I sense a powerful presence, something dangerous is near us."

"What is it?" Luo’er immediately tensed up upon hearing this.

"Hmm, I’m not sure, but this presence feels somewhat familiar, like I’ve experienced it somewhere before, with a mysterious murderous intent..." Fulajie’er said, frowning slightly.

"Do you think it’s a friend or foe?" Luo’er pressed on with his questioning.

"Hmm, it’s hard to say, but this aura definitely makes me uncomfortable," Fulajie’er replied.

"If an aura makes Fulajie’er uncomfortable, it must be a spirit; if it were a malevolent being, she certainly wouldn’t have such a strong sense of it," Tangmo analyzed seriously.

"Bad woman, what nonsense are you talking about, who said I can’t sense a bad person, aren’t you the bad person!" Fulajie’er clamored, unconvinced.

"A spirit and it feels uncomfortable, could it be Tana?" Luo’er speculated.

"Definitely not, Fulajie’er has encountered Tana before, and if it made her uncomfortable, she would have mentioned it already," Tangmo said.

"It’s not Tana; I would have sensed her, and strongly too. How should I put this, the sensation is somewhat weak, but its presence is very strong, and I simply cannot ignore it," Fulajie’er said, a bit incoherently.

Hearing her words, Tangmo suddenly paused and quickly came to a realization, then turned to Luo’er and asked, "Luo’er, how many spirits have we encountered?"

"Quite a few," Luo’er didn’t understand her immediately, "weren’t there many children in the factories of the Ancient States?"

"But they have all turned into people; I’m talking about targets that are still spirits right now," Tangmo said, resignedly.

"Speaking of spirit bodies, like... Fula... Tana... Xia Yue... and..." Luo’er said, then paused abruptly, almost immediately realizing what Tangmo meant, "Li, Liseya, the ancestor of the Ziang’s Family!"

"I was just about to tell you guys," Cheng Ziang’s voice suddenly rang out, startling both of them.

"Ziang, you’re not going to..." Luo’er and Tangmo exchanged glances and then asked through gestures.

"Ah, don’t even mention it," Cheng Ziang sighed and shook his head, "My dutiful father dug up our family’s ancestral grave and brought my great-grandmother to me."

"Is Liseya with you now?" Luo’er asked, obviously still shocked.

"Yes," Cheng Ziang nodded, then presented his pendant, "She’s in here, just like Fula. However, she will only appear when I call her; otherwise, she doesn’t come out."

"Could there be danger?" Luo’er asked with concern.

He had witnessed Liseya’s strength and even sparred with her, so he knew what she was capable of. If she wished to kill someone, virtually no one on the airboat would be able to stop her.

"To be honest, I can’t guarantee it either, but I will try my best to prevent her from going on a rampage," Cheng Ziang shrugged and replied.

"Your father brought your great-grandmother probably because he’s worried you would be at a disadvantage on your adventure," Tangmo suggested.

"A parent’s love knows no bounds..." Cheng Ziang said with a teasing smile and shrugged.

"In any case, be careful in everything," Luo’er reiterated.

"You’re all here." At this moment, Zhuyan Yu, carrying a thick notebook, came over to the group.

"Teacher Zhu," everyone greeted.

Actually, according to headquarters’ regulations, everyone was supposed to address Zhuyan Yu by her military rank, which was Major. However, she didn’t like being called by that title at all. To her, she preferred everyone call her Teacher Zhu, as she had indeed been a magic-class teacher for them all.

"The airboat has already taken off. I’ll briefly go over the information I’ve collected with you, so you’re prepared," Zhuyan Yu said, opening the thick notebook.

"Based on our investigations over the past three years, there seem to be two opposing groups on the East Continent. One group, like the Human Race, have black hair and deep eyes. The other group is similar to the Sub-beast Race, with innate animal characteristics. For the sake of differentiation, I simply refer to the former as the Human Race and the latter as the Demon Clan. In other words, in Otherworld’s East Continent, there are two main groups, the Human Race and the Demon Clan," Zhuyan Yu said, looking down at the notebook while speaking.

"That name is quite Oriental," Hu Daoke, who appeared out of nowhere, couldn’t help but interject.

"According to descriptions provided by the Sub-beast Race, the Human Race advances from the east to conquer. This means if we head east, we are likely to encounter the Demon Clan first, since according to existing information, the Demon Clan may well be situated in the western part of the East Continent," Zhuyan Yu continued.

"Then, will the Sub-beast language we’ve learned be of any use?" Luo’er asked worriedly.

"According to our surveys, it should be," Zhuyan Yu reassured, "The Sub-beast language can also be called Demon Clan language, as it is somewhat similar to Tasta language; there are accents in the north and south, but essentially, it’s the same."

"Ah, that’s a relief. I thought our efforts were in vain," Hu Daoke said, breathing a sigh of relief.

"However," Zhuyan Yu’s tone shifted, continuing, "we should take note that our mission is to conduct a scientific expedition, not colonization or plundering, so we should use force with caution. We should try not to get involved in any local armed conflicts. According to intelligence, the Demon Clan and the Human Race are mortal enemies, so if we inadvertently get involved in their conflict, we should extricate ourselves quickly to avoid trouble."

"I understand," Luo’er nodded in response, "Our task is to protect you, Teacher Zhu, so unless you are harmed, we will certainly adhere to principles and use force judiciously to avoid becoming embroiled in local armed conflicts."

"But what if they provoke us first?" Hu Daoke asked.

"That probably won’t happen as long as we make our stance clear..." Luo’er hadn’t finished his sentence when Zhuyan Yu interrupted.

"If they trouble you, then take them down. Luo’er, don’t think of people as too kind-hearted; some folks are simply begging for a beating," Zhuyan Yu said indifferently.
