Chapter 132: Chapter 109: The Great Change in the Western Wilderness

"Boom!"

In the thirteenth month of the second year since the Vine Tribe was established, the ice and snow still hadn’t melted. However, in the west, dark clouds loomed for several consecutive days, accompanied by thunder and lightning, which was extremely terrifying.

This was an unprecedented occurrence, and for a while, all the tribes were filled with dread, uncertain of what fate awaited them.

In the Vine Tribe, the Old Witch stood in front of the bamboo house, gazing at the ominous sky in the west and the sporadic flashes of lightning, his expression very grave.

Lately, he had been feeling anxious, as if something monumental was unfolding.

"Could it be that there’s been some incident in the Western Wilderness?"

The Old Witch furrowed his brow and pondered for a long time before saying, "Why not... go and see?"

The Old Witch was hesitant because it was the dead of winter, snow was falling everywhere, the weather was extremely cold, and there were unknown dangers over there.

The Old Witch walked into the bamboo house, sat by the fire pit, and after contemplating for a long while, finally stood up again and said, "Let’s go take a look; I’m at an age where death isn’t frightening. What’s there to be cautious about?"

The Old Witch’s eyes gradually grew resolute, a blazing fire burning in his heart.

After making his decision, the Old Witch packed a few things and braved the heavy snow towards the bamboo forest.

The snow on the ground was deep, but the Old Witch didn’t care. He trod heavily to Jiang Xuan’s courtyard and knocked on the gate, covered with a thin layer of ice.

Inside the bamboo house, Jiang Xuan, who was drawing a map, shouted outside, "Tang Yuan, go open the door!"

Under the bamboo shed, Tang Yuan reluctantly stood up, then waddled over to the gate, clutching with its beak the wood propping the door open, and then pulling open the gate with its beak.

When it saw the Old Witch outside, it instinctively looked back but didn’t spot the giant eagle.

The Old Witch patted Tang Yuan’s sturdy wing and laughed, "Little guy, you’re growing tougher."

Tang Yuan nuzzled the Old Witch affectionately with its head, then waddled back to sleep.

"Squeak..."

Upon hearing the Old Witch, Jiang Xuan quickly opened the door and welcomed him inside.

"Old Witch, with such heavy snow, why did you come personally? You could have let a Warrior send a message and I would have come over."

The Old Witch waved his hand and said, "I’m not so old that I can’t walk, it’s fine."

Jiang Xuan invited the Old Witch inside the bamboo house, sat him by the fire pit to warm up, and ladled him a bowl of hot soup from the Pottery Cauldron.

"Here, have some soup to warm yourself up."

The Old Witch wasn’t polite; he took the bowl, blew gently, and soon finished the hot soup, feeling much warmer.

The Old Witch set the bowl down and said to Jiang Xuan, "I need to go to the Western Wilderness."

Jiang Xuan was shocked, "Go to the Western Wilderness? Now?"

"Yes, something major must have happened in the Western Wilderness. I want to go and have a look." The Old Witch’s tone was calm, but his eyes were determined.

Jiang Xuan frowned, "But it’s still snowing, it’s really cold. Can’t you wait for the snow to melt and go then?"

The Old Witch shook his head, "By then, everything might be over. I have Witch Power for protection, and the warmth of heavy beast hide; the cold is nothing."

The Old Witch was someone with strong opinions; once he made a decision, others’ views rarely swayed him.

Jiang Xuan pondered briefly and said, "What if I go with you? I also want to see the Western Wilderness."

The Vine Tribe is located in the northwest of the Southern Wilderness. Given the climate and environment of the Rock Sheep Tribe, the distance to the Western Wilderness shouldn’t be far.

If something major really happened there, then the Vine Tribe would undoubtedly be affected in the future.

Going early to assess the situation would enable them to respond timely.

The Old Witch looked at Jiang Xuan, "I suggest you best not go; it might be very dangerous over there now."

Jiang Xuan laughed, "Where isn’t dangerous? Even staying quietly in the tribe, the disaster still couldn’t be avoided."

"Besides, I’m now a Four-Color Warrior, capable of protecting myself."

In this perilous Primordial World, danger might strike even if you do nothing.

To survive, besides strength, one needed a bit of luck.

Jiang Xuan believed his luck was quite good, and moreover, their journey to the Western Wilderness would be on a giant eagle, relatively safe.

The Old Witch considered this, feeling Jiang Xuan made a decent point, so he didn’t persist and nodded, "Since you’ve decided, let me take you for a ride. Get ready."

"Sure!"

Jiang Xuan immediately packed up things like food, a water flask, weapons, and medicinal powder, all essential items.

He also prepared a large, thick beast hide, draping it over himself, which could block the cold wind and snow.

Afterward, they visited Chi Shao, explaining the situation to her.

Actually, Chi Shao wanted to go too, but if both she and Jiang Xuan left, who would manage the tribe?

Therefore, Chi Shao had to stay in the tribe.

However, she gave Jiang Xuan plenty of various medicinal powders for emergencies.

Jiang Xuan explained the tribe’s matters to Chi Shao and found Gou Teng and others to request they take care of Tang Yuan temporarily.

Once everything was prepared, Jiang Xuan and the Old Witch mounted the black giant eagle, heading towards the Western Wilderness.

"Screech!"

The black giant eagle let out a high-pitched screech, then flapped its tremendous wings, flying towards the Western Wilderness.
