Chapter 1930: Chapter 1930: Finally came to save me!

Zhe Jue and his companions: "..."

So what if they had many people?

Wasn’t it normal for those who visited White Blind Mountain to come in large numbers? Their group only had ten people, which could be considered few, right?

"Granny, we..."

"Granny, what they mean to say is, they’ll clean up by themselves. You’re advanced in years, so you should rest first." Before Zhe Jue could finish speaking, Zhong You interrupted, smiling amicably as he addressed the elderly woman.

"Ah, you’re not leaving? Huh!"

Upon hearing his words, the old lady heaved a deep sigh and seemed to be startled, patting her chest with gravity.

Everyone: "..."

All gave the grandmother an odd look.

"Uh."

Feeling somewhat awkward under their peculiar gazes, the grandmother choked up a little.

"Please don’t take offense, honored guests. In our area, not many families are chosen as lodgings by outsiders, especially with circumstances like mine... I just thought that it’s not easy to earn a few silver ingots, and I couldn’t bear to miss the opportunity."

She spoke to them with a slightly flushed face.

It was a matter of necessity; after all, who would willingly let the silver that was almost in hand go to someone else?

Moreover, this elderly couple had no children or grandchildren now, and the people in the village only looked after their own. Who would take care of them? They naturally had to think for themselves.

"Shijian."

Hearing the grandmother’s words, Lin Caisang glanced at Shijian beside her.

She took out two silver ingots, each worth ten taels, from her bosom and handed them over, gesturing for Shijian to give them to the old lady.

"My lady, this is..."

Shijian looked at her mistress with some uncertainty.

"Consider it a deposit. When we leave, give them thirty taels more," Lin Caisang said.

"Yes."

Shijian complied and handed the silver to the grandmother.

...

That night, the village at the foot of White Blind Mountain was peaceful and quiet.

Outside the courtyard, Sui Zimo and Lin Caisang sat on a heap of grass not far from the door, gazing at the stars in the sky.

"Brother Molian, how long do you think it’ll be before we can return from our trip to Illusion Continent?"

"What’s the matter?"

Sui Zimo turned his head and looked at his wife, who was resting her head on his shoulder.

"Are you homesick already before we’ve even left?"

"How could that be?"

Lin Caisang curled her lip.

To be homesick wasn’t something that occurred only before departure; it was a constant feeling.

The home was always in her heart, wasn’t it?

But surely, one couldn’t just do nothing and stay home, cozying up, simply because one missed it?

"I’m just wondering when we’ll be able to find my father."

She had no idea where on earth her father might be. Could he truly still be up on White Blind Mountain?

That seemed rather unlikely, didn’t it? So, their search on Illusion Continent was undoubtedly the right move.

She only hoped that they would find him as soon as possible.

"Don’t worry, we’ll definitely find him," Sui Zimo assured her.

As long as they went to Illusion Continent, they were bound to find her father. It was just a matter of time.

"Sang’er, we..."

"Brother Molian, you’ve finally come to rescue me!"

Before Sui Zimo could finish his words to his wife, he felt a figure lunging toward them from the side. The person pounced on the grass and nearly embraced him.

His expression turned cold instantly, and with a flick of his arm, he sent the person flying away.

"Ah!"

The woman was flung far away, crashing to the ground with a scream.

"Who is this person?"

Inside the courtyard, Lin Changhong, upon hearing the noise outside, hurried out.
