Chapter 167: Dare to Hurt Her People
Immediately afterwards, everyone in the Star-Moon Tribe felt that they seemed to have a connection with the stars.
Especially the high priest, his feeling was the strongest. The power of the stars finally returned to their tribe after many years.
Everyone in the Xingyue Tribe looked at Pei Cangli in the air with joy. She really did it!
"I swear to protect the goddess till death!"
After one person shouted this, other people in the Star-Moon Tribe started shouting.
Led by the high priest, everyone came to the sacrificial cave to protect Pei Cangli.
Under the command of the high priest, the people of the Star-Moon Tribe soon unleashed their powerful move of making their words come true.
When the leaders of the five major tribes saw this situation, they knew they had lost the initiative and could only turn around and leave.
Before leaving, Leader Feng Ling glanced at Si Yunzhou who was still lying on the ground, then turned and left.
When Pei Cangli slowly descended from mid-air, he said to the high priest, "I'll leave everything else to you."
Then she took Si Yunzhou and flashed into the space. The high priest was stunned. Can the goddess still bring people to respond to the summons?
However, seeing Si Yunzhou injured like that while protecting the goddess, it must be normal. After all, he also put in a lot of effort for this.
After bringing Si Yunzhou into the space, Pei Cangli hurriedly took out a wooden barrel, filled it with chaotic water, and then carried Si Yunzhou in.
Unfortunately, Si Yunzhou fainted and was completely unreliable. He soon slipped down, and Pei Cangli had to enter the wooden barrel to support him.
This time it was really dangerous. The chaotic power in her body was almost exhausted, and now there is hardly any left.
Thinking of this, he looked at Si Yunzhou. Fortunately, the two of them were connected by a contract, otherwise he was afraid that this time it would really cost him his life.
He took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood off Si Yunzhou's face. After a while, Pei Cangli fell into the wooden barrel due to exhaustion.
When Si Yunzhou woke up again, he found himself lying in a wooden barrel and his injuries were healing.
When he looked down again, he saw someone leaning against his arms, holding the handkerchief he had used to wipe his face.
In this small space, the two of them were so close.
Afraid that Pei Cangli would slip, Si Yunzhou held her from behind with one hand, making it look like he was hugging her.
He had always been thinking about etiquette in his mind before, but unfortunately the ten years that Pei Cangli was in a coma made him realize that etiquette and the strict rules between men and women were not as important as expressing his feelings in a timely manner.
During the ten years that Pei Cangli was in a coma, taking care of her every day had made Si Yunzhou accustomed to their closeness and intimacy.
Suddenly, Pei Cangli said, "Si Yunzhou, go away! Don't worry about me!"
Si Yunzhou chuckled in his heart, has Cang Li finally put him in her heart? After so long, Cang Li finally has a place for him in her heart.
"Si Yunzhou!" Pei Cangli suddenly woke up.
"Cangli, I'm here."
When Pei Cangli just woke up, he was still a little dazed. He saw himself in a wooden barrel, then recalled what happened before. When he looked up again, he bumped into Si Yunzhou's affectionate eyes.
Then she realized that she was still leaning against Si Yunzhou, and she quickly jumped away with a blush, but unfortunately the wooden barrel was only this big.
Both of them still needed the water of chaos, so they had to sit face to face with their backs against the wooden barrel. The atmosphere was subtle and tense.
Si Yunzhou's gaze was like a burning flame, falling on Pei Cangli affectionately and passionately.
His eyes were full of love and attachment, as if he wanted to engrave Pei Cangli's appearance deeply in his heart.
He leaned forward slightly, trying to get closer to Pei Cangli, but was afraid of scaring her. Except for her unconsciously approaching him, Cangli was always resistant to his approach.
Pei Cangli felt Si Yunzhou's gaze, her cheeks instantly turned red, and she didn't dare to look him in the eye.
She twisted the corners of her clothes tightly with both hands, her heart beating like a drum. She could feel Si Yunzhou approaching, and the familiar breath made her flustered.
"Cangli, look at me." Si Yunzhou's voice was low and gentle, with a hint of firmness that could not be refused.
Pei Cangli bit her lips lightly, hesitated for a moment, and slowly raised her head. The moment their eyes met, she seemed to see the sea of stars.
Si Yunzhou's eyes were full of affection, which made her indulge in it involuntarily.
Si Yunzhou raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a gentle smile. He reached out and gently held Pei Cangli's hand.
Pei Cangli trembled slightly and tried to pull his hand back, but Si Yunzhou held it tightly.
"Cang Li, this time I can finally stand in front of you."
As soon as Si Yunzhou finished speaking, Pei Cangli's heart seemed to skip a beat.
Pei Cangli looked at Si Yunzhou and thought about how he didn't leave even though he was almost beaten to death for her. It would be a lie to say she wasn't moved.
She knew that Si Yunzhou had always felt guilty for not protecting her in time, and he always regretted it.
The two of them just stared at each other quietly, as if time had stopped.
In this small wooden barrel, something permeated the air, warming each other's hearts.
It was unknown how long it took for Pei Cangli to come back to her senses. Then she realized that Si Yunzhou had gotten very close to her at some point.
Pei Cangli was so scared that he quickly stood up from the wooden barrel and left.
This Si Yunzhou is really getting more and more daring. What has he learned in these ten years?
The beauty trap is becoming more and more skilled, and she often doesn't even realize when it starts. By the time she realizes it, she has already been deeply involved in it.
In the future, she should try not to be alone with him, otherwise it will easily make her mind unstable. If her mind is unstable, how can she practice in the future?
Not long after she came out of the space, Si Yunzhou followed suit, and both of them changed their clothes.
Pei Cangli was still a little embarrassed to look at Si Yunzhou, but he still said to him solemnly, "Thank you!"
"Cang Li, I'm glad to do this for you."
The two were still talking to each other when the high priest suddenly came in a hurry, "Lady Goddess, it's bad, something big has happened."
"High Priest, why are you so flustered?"
"The Earth Spirit Tribe and the Fire Spirit Tribe have come together to demand an explanation from our Star Moon Tribe, accusing us of playing tricks and deceiving them."
"Give me an explanation? They dared to hurt my people. I haven't even tried to settle accounts with them yet, but I didn't expect them to come to me on their own initiative."
Hearing this, Si Yunzhou was so happy that he could hardly suppress the smile on his face.
Cangli said he was hers. Was this an indirect acknowledgement of their relationship? Did he occupy an important position in her heart now?
"Lady Goddess, how do we deal with this?"
"Don't worry about it. I'll go meet them myself."
"My Lady Goddess, but they are all in the Void Refining Stage. I'm afraid you will suffer if you are alone, right?"
"It doesn't matter. Last time I was not in a position to attack, so they mistakenly thought I was weak and easy to bully. This time I will teach them a lesson so they know who not to mess with."
"Lady Goddess is mighty, but be careful."
"Don't worry, I know what's going on."
