The three black beasts charged through the desolate plains, their faces filled with joy. No matter what, they had finally returned from the distant Eastern Mountain Marsh, and were getting closer and closer to West Mountain City.
"Young Master." Autumn Leaf called out.
"Hmm?" Ning looked over.
Autumn Leaf hurriedly said,"Our trip to Serpentwing Lake can be considered as passing through Spring Grass 'Blacktooth Tribe. Why don't we go to the Blacktooth Tribe first? I haven't seen Spring Grass in a long time, and I really want to see her too.”
"Spring Grass?" Ning was startled, and a sense of longing rose in his heart. Spring Grass and Autumn Leaf had grown up with him, just like his elder sisters. Although he had been very reluctant to part with her, he hadn't wanted Spring Grass to be sad, which was why he had allowed her to reunite with her father. Now that Spring Grass was mentioned, Ning couldn't help but feel a hint of anticipation towards the Blacktooth Tribe.”
"Thank you, Young Master." Autumn Leaf said gratefully.
"I want to go too." Ning smiled slightly, then gently patted the black beast's head, causing it to slightly change direction.
He said that he was going to Serpentwing Lake, and that he would pass by the Blacktooth Tribe on the way. But in reality, there were still some detours.
……
There was a cave that had been chiseled into a mountain wall. There was a tall wooden fence around it. There were also some armors hanging in the cave. There were also long-haired beasts tied to tree stumps by the side. A few strong men were sitting around casually with their upper bodies naked, laughing and roasting the meat of a wild beast.
There were ten black armored guards standing guard at the entrance.
"Someone is coming." One of the black armored guards shouted. The men who were eating and drinking all turned their heads to look. One of the men with a bare chest stood up and walked over. He frowned slightly as he watched.
Three black figures quickly rushed over from the depths of the forest. Seeing that the three of them were riding on black beasts, they immediately relaxed.
The expression of the bare-chested man changed drastically as he shouted,""Young Master is here, why aren't you bowing? Quick, quick, get up! After he finished speaking, he rushed forward and knelt down on one knee in front of the door. He was extremely respectful as he called out,"Young Master!"
Whether it was the upper body or the armor, all of them knelt down and shouted,"Young Master."
"Stand up." Ning leapt off the black beast, then smiled at the leader of the black armored guards."You've seen me before?”He was just about to take out his token.
"It was Wu Zhan's luck back then." This burly man had a scar on his face, and his body looked even taller and stronger." Young Master chose some Ninefang Warriors to spar with. I have sparred with Young Master before, so I can recognize Young Master at a glance. The one behind should be Young Master's maid, Miss Autumn Leaf. I know her as well.”
Ning laughed.
So that was how it was. Back then, he had sparred frequently. Back then, most of the Ninefangs warriors in the Black Armored Guards had sparred with him, so it wasn't strange for him to encounter one who had been sent out.
"I have something to ask you." Ning said,"It has something to do with Serpentwing Lake. Come, let's go inside and talk."”
"Yes." Captain Wu Zhan immediately replied," Young Master, please follow me."”
Wu Zhan led Ning to a spacious stone house.
"Some time ago, that Diremonster Serpentwing was wreaking havoc everywhere. We weren't too far away, and it even affected our region.”Wu Zhan let out a rueful laugh. At this moment, a black armored guard came in from outside, carrying a basin of fruit. Ning casually took out a fruit and took two bites."We're at your foothold?"
"No, if they came, we would be dead.”Wu Zhan shook his head." However, at that time, we were all in a state of panic. Against the Diremonster Serpentwing, even us black armored guards were unable to resist. "Although we avoided a calamity, many tribes suffered a calamity. It's really tragic! Back then, I was hoping that old monster Serpentwing would be killed by my Ji clan. Unfortunately…"
Ning nodded.
In the end, it was Venomdove Ridge who came forward to negotiate with the Ji clan, only to have Serpentwing grounded in Serpentwing Lake for a hundred years.
"Has old monster Serpentwing always been at Serpentwing Lake?”Ning asked,"Also, is it at the bottom of Serpentwing Lake or on the island in the middle of the lake?"”
"At the bottom of the lake, of course." Wu Zhan hurriedly said," How could it dare to stay on Lake Heart Island? It's also afraid that our Ji clan will attack.”
"The bottom of the lake?" Ning nodded thoughtfully.
It seemed that killing Serpentwing wouldn't be that easy.
"Wu Zhan." Ning continued,"Do you know of a small tribe called the Blacktooth Tribe in the surrounding area?”
"Blacktooth Tribe?" Wu Zhan nodded." I know, of course I know. The leader of the Blacktooth Tribe is a person with some tricks up his sleeves. He was able to forcefully build a tribe. Those who were able to build their own tribes were no ordinary people. Unfortunately, Serpentwing had destroyed a large number of tribes, and one of them was the Blacktooth Tribe.”
"What?!" Ning's face changed dramatically, and his heart trembled.
Could it be…
Based on what he knew, Serpentwing had destroyed a small tribe before he had attacked him. All of them had died, but in the end, he had determined that Serpentwing had been the one who had done it because of the horrendous deaths of the tribesmen.
"The Blacktooth Tribe is still around?" Ning hurriedly asked.
"Still here." Wu Zhan nodded." This time, Serpentwing has wreaked havoc everywhere. He went to a tribe and wantonly massacred them before leaving! He didn't pursue extermination! After all, exterminating a clan would take a lot of time, and it would be easy for the Xiantian lifeforms of our Ji clan to catch up. Although the Blacktooth Tribe had not been completely wiped out, more than half of its tribesmen had died. It was truly tragic.”
"More than half?" Ning's heart clenched.
"Do you know Spring Grass?" Ning hurriedly asked,"Is my maidservant Spring Grass still alive?"”
"Spring Grass?" Wu Zhan was puzzled." I know Spring Grass. Young Master only has two maids. Wasn't Spring Grass following Young Master well?”
Very few people knew that Ning had set Spring Grass free.
"No, I set her free. She's the daughter of the Blacktooth Tribe's Chief.”Ning said hurriedly.
"I don't know." Wu Zhan shook his head." Although I've seen Heiya, I don't know anything about his daughter.”
Ning took a deep breath.
Worry!
Unease!
More than half of the Blacktooth Tribe's people had died. There were too many people who had died. Perhaps there would be Spring Grass.
"You must, you must be fine." Ning gritted his teeth, then suddenly walked out of the stone house.
Outside, Autumn Leaf, Mowu, and a few other black armored guards were seated around a table, eating some roasted meat.
"Young Master." Autumn Leaf and Mowu both looked over.
"Let's go." Ning barked hurriedly.
Autumn Leaf and Mowu glanced at each other in confusion. Why were they in such a hurry to leave? However, the two of them didn't dare to say anything. They didn't even get up to eat and went to their own black beasts.
"To the Blacktooth Tribe." Ning's face was grim. He struck the black beast's abdomen, causing it to immediately fly out.
The three black beasts quickly charged into the distant forest.
"Captain, what's wrong?" The other black armored guards were extremely puzzled. Wu Zhan, who had walked out of the stone house, frowned as he looked into the distance."Spring Grass? The daughter of the leader of the Blacktooth Tribe?"
******
Ning's heart was burning with anxiety. Spring Grass and Autumn Leaf were called servants, but in truth, they were his older sisters. He still remembered how he had pointed at the words in the book when he was still young, and had yawned and yawned. At that time, Spring Grass and Autumn Leaf had been tortured by their young master until they could only obediently answer.
"It won't happen."
"He won't die." Ning felt extremely anxious.
"Young Master." Autumn Leaf anxiously asked," What's wrong?”She also saw that her young master's expression was very ugly. She rarely saw her young master so angry.
"The Blacktooth Tribe was previously attacked by Serpentwing, and more than half of its clansmen died.”
"Ah!" Autumn Leaf was shocked." Then Spring Grass…"
"You'll know when you get there." Ning barked coldly.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The three black beasts sped forward. When the sun set, the three black beasts had already rushed into a sparse forest. In the distance, they could vaguely see a tribe.
"Stop." Ning barked.
The three black beasts quickly stopped.
"Young Master?" Autumn Leaf's face was also rather red from anxiety.
"Over there." Ning pointed off into the distance. He saw several dozen men dressed in crude beast skins, swinging their axes as they chopped down some withered wood. Most likely, they were going to use it to make fire.
"They should be clansmen of the Blacktooth Tribe.”Ning led the way, riding on his black beast, with Autumn Leaf and Mowu following behind.
Very quickly.
Ning arrived in front of the dozens of fur-clad men who were chopping down the withered wood. These men hurriedly picked up their spears and sabers, carefully staring at the newcomer.
"Let me ask you." Ning flipped his hand and produced his medallion. The medallion had the word 'Ji' written on it.
"The Ji clan?"
The tribal men were shocked.
"Does your tribe have a person called Spring Grass, the daughter of your leader?”Ning barked.
"Chief's daughter?" A one-eyed man immediately said," There's no one named Spring Grass in our Blacktooth Tribe. Our Chief's daughter is called Miwa!”
"Yes, Miwa. Is she still alive?"”
"Dead."
"Miwa is dead." The tribal men all spoke.
Ning's face instantly changed, while Autumn Leaf's face turned deathly pale. Her body swayed, and she fell off the black beast. Mowu hurriedly leapt off the beast and helped Autumn Leaf up. Autumn Leaf's face was deathly pale, and her tears couldn't help but fall.
"How did he die?" Ning barked."Was Serpentwing the one who killed him?”
"Serpentwing has killed many of our tribe's people. Even one of our Chief's sons has died.”The one-eyed man said," Many of our tribesmen died back then. Many of our tribesmen were hit by some exploding rocks and were frozen by ice…Although they didn't die back then, they were injured. Later on, their wounds rotted, and some of them even fell seriously ill. They died one by one. Many heavily injured clansmen died in this way. Miwa also died of illness later."
"Spring Grass!" Autumn Leaf cried bitterly.
Ning had an ugly look on his face, and the violent ripples of his thoughts caused the surrounding trees to tremble.
"Serpentwing!" "I, Ji Ning, swear that I will definitely kill you! I will definitely kill you!"!!”
