warrior preparation camp members; if Jiang Xiaorou had met them, the situation would turn dangerous.
So all Jiang Xiaorou had been doing all all these days was to watch.
Within the treehouse, she looked at the small piece of sky through the window. She looked at the hundred-year-old ancient trees, and watched the boulders that never changed.
Day after day, Jiang Xiaorou would watch a huge rock grow a layer of frost in the morning, at noon, that frost would turn into vapor and at night, the moonlight would scatter off the rock…
Jiang Xiaorou could only wait, and that’s she did.
She sat alone everyday, waiting anxiously. Sometimes, Jiang Xiaorou would have a nightmare, resulting in her to wake up in fright.
It was noon…
A rare warm winter sun shone through the gaps in the woods onto Jiang Xiaorou’s face.
Under the rays of the sun, Jiang Xiaorou’s silky hair shone in faint golden light.
Suddenly, a soft sound rang. A squirrel had come to the treehouse and stopped by the window.
Seeing the furry squirrel, Jiang Xiaorou flashed a rare smile.
This was a little partner she had stumbled upon by chance. Due to excessive hunting, there were very few animals in the Lian tribal clan’s back mountain.
Having a little partner, Jiang Xiaorou was able to overcome her loneliness. She fed the little guy grains and corn. Hence, it often came for food.
Jiang Xiaorou sprinkled some corn and hugged her slender legs with her two lotus-like arms, as she watched the little guy eat.
The little guy ate really quickly. Its cheeks were filled up quickly, but it was very alert. It would raise its head to look at its surroundings from time to time.
Seeing the cute fella, Jiang Xiaorou felt at peace.
“Yun’er’s selection should be over.”
Jiang Xiaorou sighed as she looked out the window. “I wonder what his results are.. Yun’er may have increased greatly in strength lately, but there are so many experts in the Kingdom’s selection. Just around the Tao tribal clan there are a few dozen tribal clans. None of them are smaller than the Lian tribal clan… There is also the Tao tribal clan, which is a giant…”
Jiang Xiaorou was worried for Yi Yun. She was not counting on Yi Yun to pass the selection and for her to become rich as a result.
But she knew that Lian Chengyu had around 80-90% chance of becoming a Jin Long Wei. If Yi Yun did not become a Jin Long Wei, he would lose the protection of the Jin Long Wei and might be plotted against by Lian Chengyu!
When that happens, Yi Yun would be in danger.
Every time she thought of that, Jiang Xiaorou became very worried.
Although Jiang Xiaorou grew up in the vast wilderness, she did not believe in a god. But for the past ten days or so, even an atheist like her had been praying for Yi Yun, praying for a miracle, praying Yi Yun would pass the selection.
Those days were hard to get by.
Just as Jiang Xiaorou began to lose herself in thought, the little rascal that was chewing a piece of corn released its claws on its favorite food. It stood up and alertly looked at its surroundings. It stopped chewing, but its cheeks were still full. However, its small dark eyes were on full alert.
Jiang Xiaorou suddenly wondered. What happened?
She carefully listened and could hear a “rumbling” noise in the background, as if a giant beast was running through the mountains.
The squirrel was frightened and with a “ping”, it had hid behind Jiang Xiaorou’s back. In these few days, the squirrel had begun to trust Jiang Xiaorou.
Jiang Xiaorou stood up. The sound was getting louder and louder, as if the behemoth was nearby.
“Could it be…” Jiang Xiaorou rushed to the window and looked out. She could see several trees in the woods, violently shaking. It was clear that a large beast was nearby.
Jiang Xiaorou held her breath.
About ten seconds later, she finally saw a two-storey tall behemoth passing through the layers of forest appearing before her.
She could see a bright youth sitting on the broad shoulders of the behemoth. In the luxuriant forest, the youth was like a star and extremely dashing! His fresh but extraordinary facial features gave Jiang Xiaorou a familiar feeling.
“Yun… Yun’er?” Jiang Xiaorou could not believe that the youth in front of her was Yi Yun!
“Sis Xiaorou!” After being apart for so many days, Yi Yun was full of emotion upon seeing Jiang Xiaorou again. Yi Yun was overjoyed when he saw her safe and sound. He was really afraid that Jiang Xiaorou might have gotten into an accident.
The world’s greatest pain would be when you obtained your ultimate accomplishment, but the person you wanted to share it with was no longer around.
That was an extreme loneliness.
In this world, Yi Yun only had Jiang Xiaorou as his only relative. Only Jiang Xiaorou could share in Yi Yun’s success and joy.
Yi Yun wished that Jiang Xiaorou could see him become a high noble or even a saint after seeing him become a Kingdom Knight!
For an unknown reason, when Yi Yun was riding on the behemoth through t
