Ancient Eden

Chapter 87

~ 86

Mu Qing looked at Gang Tu who was coming at her in a compelling manner. One of his arms was now hanging helplessly around his waist and, along with his hideous face, he looked somewhat strange and ridiculous. There was no medical treatment here, so his arm was most likely crippled.

Li Mang would not leave and abandon her like this, he would definitely come back sooner or later to save her. This was what she kept repeating to herself when she was locked up alone in this cave during this long afternoon. When he saw her, the overwhelming joy and concern in his eyes became the only source of warmth for her. Like an opium addict, she voraciously recalled the expression on his face over and over again.

She had to convince herself of this so that she would have the courage to continue living.

Chapter 87

(27.5)

It was easy to die, the walls of this cave were full of potholes and rocky angles, she just had to run head first into them to end it.

Living was the hard part.

When she first arrived here, she thought she would be able to go back to her world sooner or later, so even though it was difficult, she never thought about committing suicide. Later, although there was no more hope of ever going back, Li Mang’s indulgence and doting on her, became almost the entirety of her life. Now, if she didn’t let herself believe that Li Mang would come to her rescue, she really wouldn’t be able to hold on anymore, to this place that made her feel hopeless from the bottom of her heart.

She somewhat regretted that she didn’t look up at Li Mang earlier. Li Mang must have kept looking back at her at that time. If she had looked up, she would feel more confident now.

Mu Qing rested her back against the wall of the cave and looked up, almost calmly, at the man who had already arrived, in a compelling way, in front of her.

.

No matter what was going to happen, if she lived on, Li Mang would definitely come find her.

She told herself so.

(28.1)

As darkness fell, the man with the black scar and another member of the tribe were sitting on the ground, complaining about having to keep watch despite being injured, while whispering about the woman they had captured a few days ago.

“I didn’t expect that little she-wolf’s claws would be so sharp, she made such a big hole in Gu’s throat. I’m sure he couldn’t control his own balls and fell into that little she-wolf’s trap. Gang Tu’s arm cannot move anymore, but he still wants to make a show of strength tonight by sleeping with that little she-wolf, I hope for him he doesn’t get up tomorrow morning with broken eggs below…”

As the man with a black scar talked, he obscenely laughed with his companion.

It was common for people to die in the jungle. He didn’t feel bad about losing one of his tribe member. In the past, when they were starving in the winter, they had even shared and ate the bodies of their companions who died because they could not endure the cold.

They had yet to stop laughing when they heard a sound coming from the bushes behind them. The leg of the man with the black scar had been injured a little during the day, so he urged his companion to go over to take a look.

After not seeing him come back for a long moment, he had no choice but to get up, using the spear in his hand as a cane to support himself on to the ground, while cursing as he looked around. He saw that nothing was unusual, but his companion had disappeared like this.

Feeling slightly apprehensive in his heart, he turned back and was about to call people over to look for his companion, when he suddenly felt a cold feeling in his throat. He did not even have time to make a sound, and collapsed on the ground, as blood kept gushing out from the long and thin cut in his throat.

Without even glancing at him, Li Mang immediately dived silently in the direction of the indistinct firelight in front of him.

He was tall in stature, but at this moment, his movements were as agile as a leopard.

During daytime, he didn’t walk far before he stopped in his tracks. Da Wu and his people were strongly opposed to his idea. But no one could sway him from his decision, not even Da Wu.

He had shown his loyalty and duty to his chief previously, now he had to move accordingly to his heart.
