Chapter 1705: Burst Into Tears2

“Stop asking. Please stop asking. Just leave.” The woman cried out loud. As the strength on her knees faltered, she knelt down again.

Xi Yue’s eyes flashed. She covered Little Nuo’s mouth that wanted to speak and quickly left, disappearing into the darkness.

Weizhi and Little Red Bird closely followed her. The two of them and the bird moved in complete silence, making no sound at all amidst the stillness.

The woman let out a sigh of relief, wiped the tears from her face, and looked toward the direction of the approaching voices with a composed expression.

However, the woman didn’t know that Xi Yue, who recently left, circled around and returned to the cabin.

The group hid on a huge tree, blending into the dark night silently.

The human voice was getting closer and closer, accompanied by the flickering light of torches. It allowed Xi Yue to see the person coming clearly.

The leader was an old man who appeared to be in his seventies. Behind him were a bunch of young adults.

They dressed similarly to Little Nuo and her mother. Some were made of fabric and others fur. They were all simple outfits. Some of the youngsters wore necklaces made of animal bones around their necks, which looked primitive.

Contrary to Xi Yue’s expectation, when the elderly man arrived in front of the cabin and saw the woman, he didn’t shout or attack. Instead, tears streamed down his face as he fell to his knees with a thud. His hoarse voice, filled with sorrow, resonated poignantly in the darkness.

“Nu, please, as a request from your father, take Little Nuo back with daddy!”

As the old man knelt, the youngsters behind him also knelt. Some of them had red eyes, with sadness and despair on their faces.

Xi Yue was confused with what had happened!

Seeing everyone kneeling, Little Nuo’s mother knelt down too as if she had collapsed. She choked and said, “Dad, when I go back with you, I will bear the responsibility, okay? But, take it as your daughter begging you to let Little Nuo go. She is still so young and has never even experienced a good life!

*Sob*

…”

As he talked, the woman burst into tears. Little Nuo, who was hiding in the tree, also burst into tears.

The old man’s eyes turned bloodshot. However, his tone remained firm, “Nu, Dad doesn’t want to take Little Nuo back! But, can you bear to watch the entire tribe die like this one by one?”

“Dad knows that Little Nuo lives a pitiful life, but this is her fate. This is also the fate of our family!”

The woman cried and shook her head. No matter how the old man and the people behind him tried to persuade her, she refused to compromise.

Someone behind the old man finally became infuriated as he shouted, “For our Cangda Tribe to survive and for the sick tribesmen to escape the grasps of death, Little Nuo’s sacrifice is necessary. Anyone who stops it will be the traitor of our entire Cangda Tribe!”

As soon as this person shouted, the others immediately echoed.

They pushed aside the crying woman and rushed into the cabin, rummaging through the place.

However, despite overturning the bed and the cabinets, they found no trace of the child.

The old man trembled slightly. He looked at the tied up woman kneeling on the ground and asked, “Where is Little Nuo? Where did you hide her?”

The woman closed her eyes with a relieved smile on her face, “Father, I told you, if you want a sacrifice, just take me to see the gods. Little Nuo has left. She will never come back… She will survive, she will live well, and that’s enough!”

Everyone who heard this showed angry and shocked expressions.

They insulted the woman in a strange dialect. Some even slapped her in the face.
