Chapter 561: Chapter 561 The Dwarf Disappeared Chapter 561: Chapter 561 The Dwarf Disappeared In a blurred haze, just when he thought he was about to starve to death, a pair of warm hands picked him up.

“Master.” The dwarf struggled to open his eyes and in a daze, he saw the kind face of his master again.

The one who picked up the dwarf was a kindly old monk, who looked at the ugly face both lovingly and hatefully, and said resentfully, “You murderous Demon Head, I really don’t know whether saving you is right or wrong, alas! After all, it is a human life, and heaven has the virtue of cherishing life, so I’ll save you once more.”

The old monk had received a distress signal from the dwarf early in the morning, but he did not appear. This disappointing disciple had killed countless innocent lives since he began his wayward path.

After much thought, since they were master and disciple after all, he couldn’t bear it and decided to take him back to the mountain to retrain him, hoping that he would reform and not treat human lives as child’s play in the future.

The silhouette of the old monk carrying the dwarf gradually disappeared into the night.

The next morning, observant people noticed that the dwarf, who had been lying on the street, had vanished.

“Oh, my! Where has that ugly freak gone? He was still lying here yesterday.”

“Could it be that he starved to death?”

It was known to the people living nearby that the dwarf, lying on the street, often had no food.

“You’re being silly, if he really starved to death, there would at least be a corpse. Look, there’s no body; he must have walked away by himself.”

“You’re the silly one. If he could stand up, he would have walked away a long time ago, instead of lying here for half a month.”

“True.” The speaker scratched his head and gave an awkward smile.

No matter what everyone else was discussing, in any case, the dwarf had disappeared from Shuangxing County. That was an undeniable fact.

In a hidden spot, two men who had been monitoring the dwarf during this period immediately changed their expressions upon hearing these words.

“Look, look, I told you not to drink last night, but you just wouldn’t listen, and now look what happened, the person has disappeared into thin air. How are we supposed to explain this to the master?” one of the men said to his companion.

“Who knew this could happen? He’s clearly disabled, yet he could still vanish into thin air–it’s really damn strange.” The companion was also full of regret.

“The master has now returned to the Capital; we should hurry back and report this, otherwise, if something goes wrong, we won’t be able to bear the consequences.”

“Given the error in our mission, we don’t know how the master will punish us,” said the man, anxiety rising within him.

“It is what it is; don’t think too much, let’s just go back and await the master’s decision,” one said.

The two men helplessly turned and left.

Shuangxing County once again regained its usual calm.

Mo Family Village

On this day, like always, Xuexue went to the watermelon field early in the morning, picked watermelons, and waited for Shopkeeper Fan’s cart to arrive before loading it up and sending Shopkeeper Fan’s cart out of the village.

After finishing all these tasks, Xuexue was just about to go back home.

“Sister, sister, something terrible has happened!” Suddenly, Chuner came running out of the village, panic-stricken, and headed straight for the field.

“Chuner, what’s wrong? Why are you so panicked?” Xuexue, with a bamboo basket on her shoulder, was walking on the ridge path, heading home.

“Grandma…Grandmother, grandmother she…” Chuner, having run too fast, was gasping for breath, unable to complete her sentences.

“Don’t hurry, take a moment and then talk,” Xuexue stopped, put down the bamboo basket from her shoulder, and took Chuner’s hand.

“Grandmother, grandmother has invited a mage to our house,” Chuner managed to catch her breath and hurriedly said.
