Chapter 1057: Ghost Saint Country 18
was this possible"It was when we were down here that I saw the cave. This valley is hemmed in on both sides by cliffs, and there's nowhere for you to hide. The only possibility is this cave, and even...Luo Li heard the words of Elder Liu, her gaze instinctively shifted towards Great Elder. She knew that Great Elder would definitely not compromise.
"He's just a child, you should discipline him properly. Sending him away like this... You esteemed elders of the Yao Clan, do you lack even a shred of patience How can you possibly educate the next generation of clan leaders"
The elder looked at Wan'er, "Although this child is a bit mischievous, it is precisely because of this that she can embody her as the destined heir of the Yao clan, the next generation's leader. Brothers, please be more tolerant and patient with this child, and she will surely change."
"Grand Elder, this child is truly..."
"Second Elder, the Great Elder is right. Wan'er is just a child. All of you are like her grandfathers, so it would be best to have more patience and guide her properly. After all, she will be our Yao Clan's leader in the future, responsible for all matters big and small. If we fail to teach her well, then she won't become the excellent leader that all of you elders desire."
Luoli lowered her head and glanced at Wan'er in her arms. She was quite looking forward to her next performance and believed she wouldn't disappoint the ten elders.
"Ali is right, since we've decided to teach her properly, we need to be patient."
The youngest of the five elders spoke up. In his eyes, this was all a show put on by themselves. Could such a thing be done by a child barely one and a half years old
"You say that so easily. If she were to harm you, could you still speak like this"
The elder, who was as miserable as a broken tooth, watched Wan'er being avoided by everyone. He truly couldn't imagine what the future of the Yao clan would be like with this girl around.
The Five Elders weren't pleased to hear this.
"That's not right. Why would so many elders, Wan'er specifically target you and not me If you treated her better, she might be more playful. Besides, you're in your fifties or sixties, yet you act like a one-and-a-half-year-old child. When this gets out, don't you feel embarrassed"
"You…"
The Sixth Elder was scolded by the Fifth Elder, his face turning ashen. He glared at Wan'er, who looked innocent and clueless, but he couldn't find an appropriate retort.
"If you have the guts, go and harm him. What do you want from me"
Wan'er looked at the Sixth Elder, her blinking eyes fixed on him, her innocent expression making anyone who looked at her feel like they were bullying her.
"Why are you yelling at the child You've disgraced the Yao Clan!" Elder Five rebuked with displeasure, glancing at Wan'er's innocent eyes. He didn't believe for a moment that this girl could do such a thing.
Wan'er looked at the Fifth Elder, stretched out her hand, and softly called out, "Hug."
The Fifth Elder's heart melted when he heard her shout, and he hurriedly opened his arms wide.
"Good boy, come here and let Grandpa Five hug you."
Waner actually let Elder Five carry her. Such an action left everyone else present dumbfounded, even Luo Li didn't expect Waner to let Elder Five hold her.
"Waner, you have to be good and not cause trouble."
The Fifth Elder looked at her rosy little face and patiently instructed her. Wan'er nodded, looking at the Fifth Elder, "I want daddy, I want mommy."
"Alright, alright. When Grandpa Five is free, I'll take you to find your parents."
"Click."
Wan'er kissed Wuchang Lao's face, making the old man laugh uncontrollably.
"What a good child."
When the elders heard what Elder Five had said, their faces darkened one by one.
"Elder Five, how could you agree to take her..."
The elder's words were still unfinished, but seeing Wan'er staring at him, he swallowed his words hard.
“This child is truly obedient. The more I look at her, the more I like her. You are all elders, treat her as your own granddaughter. Isn't she well-behaved” Elder Five held Wan’er in his arms, looking at Wan’er’s well-behaved appearance. “Such a good child, you have to turn her into someone bad.”
The Grand Elder, seeing Wan'er's obedient appearance, spoke, "The Fifth Elder makes a good point. This child is still young and shouldn't be treated too harshly, Ali. Take her down to rest. The other elders and I have matters to discuss."
Luo Li walked out with Wan'er, glancing at the Hall of Deliberations. A chill flashed in his eyes.
It seems the Grand Elder has devised a way to deal with Wan'er.
As he had guessed, the Elder allowed all the elders to deceive Wan'er by saying they would bring her mother, hoping to reduce Wan'er's disruption.
Waner was like a little demon, playing happily with them every day, but each time she would drive the elders crazy. They even felt the urge to kill her!
Luo Li opened one eye and closed the other, ignoring all of it.
Xiao Li took Ye Xi to catch the king of the Ghost Saint Country, but unexpectedly hit an empty space. It seemed that the king of this Ghost Saint Country knew they were looking for him and didn't even go incognito.
"Your Highness, it's been ten days now. Isn't Luoli planning to take us there"
Xiaoli was getting impatient, waiting like this was really agonizing. She didn't know when they would be able to go to the Yao Clan.
This Ghost Saint Nation doesn't even have roads, if we keep wandering like this, we'll actually die of exhaustion.
Feng Lingxi also found it puzzling. This shouldn't be the case.
Can Luoli really make Wan'er feel better and have her stay peacefully in the Yao Clan
Or is it that Wan'er, this child, just plays and doesn't need her parents anymore
Feng Lingxi's heart was filled with unease. There was no news from Dugucheng, and all she could do at the inn was wait anxiously.
"I don't know what's going on now. If the message is correct, there shouldn't be any news unless their target was really Wan'er, not me."
Feng Lingxi furrowed her brow, worried about Wan'er's situation. Now that they were here, there was truly no hope left.
“Just now Ye Mei messaged, saying she’s found the whereabouts of the Yao people and will arrive to meet up with us soon.”
Dugu Cheng walked in, his handsome face full of weariness.
These days, I've been looking into the Yao Clan entrance every day, watching suspicious-looking members of the Yao Clan. I finally got some news, but I can't guarantee if it will lead us to the entrance.
"I'm worried that even if we capture the Yao people, they won't tell us the entrance. I fear this time's goal isn't me, but Wan'er."
They took away Wan'er, such a young child. Do they really intend to raise her within the tribe and have her grow up to be their heir
"If the madam were back, she would certainly know how to get to the Yao Clan."
Xiao Li's eyes were full of anticipation. When she mentioned Yao Wan Ying, Du Gu Cheng looked at Feng Ling Xi, her eyes dimmed. This period of time, they had all thought there would be news from Yue Mu, but there wasn't any. She just seemed to have vanished into thin air. Even Tian Xiang Lou couldn't find any trace of her.
As for Feng Lingxi, as the Saintess of the Yao clan, she didn't even know the entrance to their own clan here. How could she possibly feel comfortable
I want to see the king of Ghostly Nation.
Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, her eyes firming.
Perhaps, he only had this path left. Xiaoli said that the ruler of this Ghost Saint Kingdom liked to go incognito, but after they arrived, the ruler who should have gone incognito suddenly disappeared. Feng Lingxi guessed that it probably had something to do with her being here.ng Yu Xi sneezed, instinctively pulling her clothes tighter. A chill ran down her spine, raising a sense of foreboding within her. She frowned, a question mark etched in her eyebrows."These days, has...
