Chapter 1586: Chapter 1408: Stormy Night in Jianghu

"Yun Xiao probably knows much more than I do," Hong Yan had already knelt down and, picking up her shovel, was ready to descend the mountain. She still had to accompany Elder Yun to search for someone in Wolfhound Bay today.

But Bei Shan remained silently seated at the peak.

No wonder Yun Xiao had tried so hard to stop their family from entering; he probably already knew what would happen to Xia Dabao.

To save the Southern Zhao Kingdom, it required Xia Dabao’s blood. He knew this, yet he didn’t want Xia Dabao to die in such a way.

...

It was already broad daylight.

Yun Xiao was the first to awaken, and upon getting up, he realized he was leaning in a warm embrace, with Xia Dabao asleep against the back of the small cabin.

He gently lifted his head from her embrace, his mind repeatedly flashing back to her singing from the previous night.

In that moment, he suddenly understood what Xia Dabao meant by kinship.

After he woke up, it wasn’t long before Xia Dabao also awoke.

She barely moved before exclaiming, "So numb!"

Her hands and feet were completely numb, unable to move at all.

Yun Xiao smiled, then picked up Xia Dabao, placed her on the bed inside the house, and covered her with his cloak, "Lie down for a while, I’ll go get you something to eat."

"Okay..." After being laid on the bed, Xia Dabao’s limbs remained uncomfortably numb, unable to move. She could only let him be.

She wondered if his wounds had healed yet.

Moreover, he had been sleeping in her arms for a long time last night. Several times she thought to wake him up, but seeing him sleep like a child, she couldn’t bear to do it and endured it until dawn.

About half an hour later, Yun Xiao returned. She was able to move by then and went to see what was happening.

Yun Xiao had brought back a large piece of wood from the forest. After setting the wood in place, he took an old axe from the house and went to the riverbank to sharpen the axe on a stone.

After sharpening the axe, he began chopping firewood in front of the cabin.

Perhaps because it was hot, he eventually removed his upper clothing and tied it around his waist.

Suddenly, Xia Dabao had an illusion; the Yun Xiao before her seemed just like her own parents. Her parents had once lived such a life in the wilderness, and now she and Yun Xiao...

She quickly shook her head.

The nature of her relationship with Yun Xiao was unclear to her.

She used to hate him, calling him Purple Fur Freak, but after spending time together, her fondness for Yun Xiao had grown.

After splitting the firewood, Yun Xiao began to roast a wild chicken. Once it was ready, he tore off a chicken leg for Xia Dabao first.

Xia Dabao hurriedly said thank you.

She had eaten little the night before and was famished now. She quickly finished one chicken leg, and Yun Xiao gave her another, while he started to feast on the rest.

The two shared a meal outdoors, a very warm feeling indeed.

Unbeknownst to them, a bloody conflict had erupted not far from where they were.

Members of the Moon Shadow Clan and the Red Dawn Clan had entered Wolfhound Bay one after another, starting to fight outside.

The sound of fighting was so loud that the wolves in the forest also joined the fray, and soon a large battle unfolded between man and man, wolf and wolf.

Meanwhile, several others, including the little Priest and Hong Yan, Elder Yun, and the young Goddesses of the Moon Heart Tribe also entered the fray.

...

After Yun Xiao and Xia Dabao finished eating, they went to wash their hands by the river.

However, Yun Xiao’s expression suddenly turned serious.
