Chapter 1454: Chapter 756: The Strange Woman
Chapter 756
“Shopkeeper, are you worried that we’ll cause trouble for your restaurant?” Mo Jiuli asked with a faint smile.
“Ahem, not exactly, I just came to remind the three of you!” The shopkeeper said somewhat awkwardly. He indeed didn’t want to worry about the Divine Doctor Sect, because of their stay here possibly becoming a trouble for his restaurant.
So while kindly reminding Mo Jiuli, he also hoped that they would leave as soon as possible, thus preventing his restaurant from being implicated by the Divine Doctor Sect…
Mo Jiuli glanced at the somewhat disheveled Little girl and after a moment of thought said, “Shopkeeper, you needn’t worry too much, I’ll have her change clothes, and then we will leave!”
“Ah… very well, I will have someone send up some hot water for the Miss!” The shopkeeper said immediately upon hearing this.
Mo Jiuli nodded, and the shopkeeper immediately turned and left.
Before long, the waiter brought up the hot water, Mo Jiuli took out a set of clothes, handed it to the little girl, and then had her go behind the screen to take a bath…
When the little girl finished washing and changed into fresh clothes, Mo Jiuli saw her face which could only be described as elegantly beautiful and his eyes flashed slightly, but he said nothing…
“Let’s go!” After saying that, he took Yun Hua downstairs to settle the bill and left the restaurant, heading straight out of the city.
After leaving the city, Mo Jiuli let Yun Hua assume her original form, carrying himself and the silent little girl away on a flight…
After flying for almost a day, it was nearly evening when they landed on the edge of a forest. Mo Jiuli and Yun Hua took out some dried meat they had roasted before, and the three of them ate…
Mo Jiuli took out a bag of Dark Stones and handed it to the little girl opposite him, saying, “This is for you. After we reach the next city tomorrow, I will ask Yun to let you down, and from then on you should take good care of yourself…”
Upon hearing this, the little girl across from him looked up at Mo Jiuli but did not reach out to take the Dark Stones she was offering and hesitated before asking, “Can I follow you?”
“No,” Mo Jiuli responded directly.
“Why?” The girl did not expect such a straightforward refusal from Mo Jiuli and asked subconsciously.
“Then why do you want to follow us?” Instead of answering, Mo Jiuli posed a question in return.
“I no longer have any relatives, and I don’t know where to go or what to do. You are good people, so…” The girl said with her lips quivering.
“So what? We’re not as good as you think. Saving you was just because those people were an eyesore, nothing more, don’t overthink it…” Mo Jiuli said indifferently.
“But I…” The girl hesitated and didn’t know what else to say.
She could only lower her head in silence…
A night with no further conversation
The next day, Yun continued to travel with Mo Jiuli. In the afternoon, they approached another city. Mo Jiuli instructed Yun to find a Secluded Place outside the city to land. He then said to the silent girl, “There’s a city ahead; you can leave now. We shall not meet again!”
After saying that, Mo Jiuli turned and sat down on Yun’s back, then said to Yun, “Yun, let’s go!”
“Yes, Master!” Yun responded.
However, Mo Jiuli discovered that his robe hem had been caught by the little girl at some point. He looked down at her, puzzled, as she tugged at his robe hem and asked, “Do you still have something to say?”
“I don’t want to go to this city. Can I go to the next one?” The girl asked, her head still lowered.
Upon hearing this, Mo Jiuli hesitated for a moment and then said, “You may!”
