NOVEL NEXT Chapter 159.1: You're Mad
Above the Tager Desert, a figure dragged another person abruptly across the sky, and 4 trajectories quickly flashed behind, relentlessly chasing the figure ahead.
“Yue Mei! You can’t escape! Surrender that kid obediently!!”
Yin Shi roared angrily at Yue Mei, and his old but powerful voice echoed through the desert.
Yue Mei gritted her teeth, but she didn’t dare to slow down at all, exerting all her strength to increase her escape speed.
She must not be caught; she absolutely must not be caught!
Determination flashed in Yue Mei’s red eyes, and the hand holding onto Xiao Yan’s collar tightened.
As one of the Tribe Leaders, if she were caught, Yin Shi and the others would naturally not do anything to her. But they would never let Xiao Yan go.
In their eyes, Xiao Yan had become a future threat to the Snake-People Tribe.
If this child was not eliminated, they, as the 8 Tribe Leaders, would feel uneasy about the responsibility on their shoulders. If, in the future, Xiao Yan truly threatened the Snake-People Tribe, they would deeply regret not killing him today! They would hate themselves for not killing Xiao Yan here and now!
If Yue Mei did not know Xiao Li or had not had in-depth discussions with her, she might share the same opinion.
However, the crucial point was that Yue Mei had already interacted with Xiao Li and had deep conversations.
It was not an exaggeration to say that Yue Mei considered Xiao Li a true and close friend, the first Human friend!
Yue Mei absolutely believed in her friend!
Since she believed in Xiao Li, Yue Mei also firmly believed in Xiao Yan, as Xiao Li described him. She was determined to protect Xiao Yan, even if it meant jeopardizing the future reconciliation between the Snake-People Tribe and Humans. Even if it was just for Xiao Li, Yue Mei was determined to save Xiao Yan!
“Yue Mei! Stop! You can’t escape!!”
Kui Xing shouted loudly, and Yue Mei turned her head slightly, looking at Kui Xing getting closer. A trace of panic flashed in her eyes.
She knew that her speed was no match for Kui Xing, and being caught by Kui Xing was only a matter of time.
Yue Mei was also gambling. She was betting that Kui Xing would still spare Xiao Yan’s life for the sake of Xiao Li’s face. Even if Kui Xing wouldn’t openly protect Xiao Yan, as long as he pretended like Yan Ci and Hei Du did, Yue Mei was confident that she could escape with Xiao Yan from the remaining 3 pursuers.
But now, it seemed impossible.
Kui Xing’s current actions clearly demonstrated his determination to kill Xiao Yan! Even if it meant destroying the efforts of Xiao Li over the past half year!
Damn it!
Damn it!!
Damn it!!!
“Kui Xing! Do you really want to become a criminal for the Snake-People Tribe?!!”
Yue Mei shouted in anger at Kui Xing, and a hint of hesitation flashed in Kui Xing’s eyes, slowing down his speed.
He knew what Yue Mei meant by those words.
Once Xiao Yan died, at the very least, Xiao Li would leave from the Tager Desert and never come back.
In other words, there would be no mediator between Humans and the Snake-People Tribe.
If things reached that point, the hard-won opportunity for the Snake-People Tribe to leave this harsh environment of the wilderness would be completely ruined.
They would have to struggle in this harsh wilderness for another few hundred years before another opportunity arose!
By then, Yin Shi and the others, as well as Kui Xing himself, would be the sinners crucified on the pillar of shame by future generations of the Snake-People Tribe!
Their actions would make the Snake-People Tribe suffer for another few hundred years in this wilderness!
This was the sin they were about to commit! How could they not be cursed by future generations of the Snake-People Tribe?!
Kui Xing’s heart struggled continuously.
After a while, Kui Xing gritted his teeth, accelerated again, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes.
“Yue Mei, you’re right!”
