The Decision Is Yours
There was another conflict in her head, whether she should meet her great grandfather or not, and if she chose to meet him, will this tribe let her stay here again?
Once she disappeared suddenly and they could not find, they will take her as other humans or perhaps a spy.
Jen decided to take permission from the judicious and prudent half beast leader.
The female sambar stopped in front of a spacious bivouac, "You can go inside and talk to the leader," the female sambar bowed as if bowing to tease her friend, Jen caught it and bowed to return back the teasing, this female sambar was really going to create strong bond of friendship, both smiled.
Jen voiced and took permission to enter in the Bivouac, the leader was sitting on the altar, "Greetings senior," Jen slightly bowed. He was leader of this tribe and deserve respect from everyone.
"You seemed in a conflict, what is it? Can I help in anyway?" the leader spoke as if could read through her mind, nonetheless the girl was small but it seemed her problems were big, its just he can't point them out.
"I am fine and the fellow half beast is caring, I am so much indebted to you and your tribe, I wish I could do something to save from the other tribes," Jen spoke not knowing what else to say.
"Haha, you are small yet I praise your concern for our tribe, if you are worried about anything do let me know," the half beast was greatly impressed because of her worry, she must have heard about the sneak attacks of the human tribe which cause her panic, it was normal for her to show such concern in his eyes but who would tell him about her past, how this girl never took burden of any powerful enemy and always looked straight in the eyes of danger.
The half beast would not believe if someone tried to explain, this girl seemed small and harmless, this was the reason that he took risk and interrupted that mysterious human before he could kill her, for Jen it was biggest ever favor, she don't want to die before bringing back Zhi Chang but the man was insanely powerful to let her struggle for life furthermore she was injured badly and her acmes pairs were almost empty because of earlier battle.
If this half beast had not appeared there and interrupted, she would have been dead meat now.
"I am grateful, now I shall take my leave," Jen bowed and came out of the Bivouac, she thought to not reveal what she intended, it would cause many questions to raise heads.
The leader smiled to see her leaving, this small girl was unfathomable in his view, whatever she wanted to say, she decided to keep it to herself in the end and left.
Currently human tribe was silent and there was no news yet about their activities.
Jen felt her uncommon behavior and twitched, why the sambar was walking in airs today, "First of all tell me what this attitude is?"
"Human, you don't know what it feels to walk with a trusted friend, the uneven and thorny ground seemed like soft floor, the harsh whether feels like a rain in the summer, and no need to fear your enemies because friends are there to double your strength so did you get it why I am in the airs?" sambar expectantly looked at Jen and blinked whether this girl understood or not.
"It is hard to tell what you pointed exactly but it feels that friends bless life, is that what you wanted to say?" Jen blinked this time.
"You caught it right," the female sambar raised her front leg, "Give me a high-five," Jen extended her hand with confusion and human hand gave high-five to a half beast.
"You are gone mad to make a human your friend, you sure would regret it soon," the fox near a tent saw this and comment aloud.
"I know you are speaking out of care, but let the time decide first," the sambar answered aloud so that fox beast could hear her.
They reached near the tent, Jen stopped right in front of the tent and spoke, "I wanted to say something,"
Sambar entered the tent and nodded, "Sure, say whatever bothers you,"
"While I am in this tent, my great grandfather would come and take me along, I will return after few days when my emotional condition would be more stable, you have to keep it a secret as I don't want anyone to get suspicious over my absence," Jen was going to call her great grandfather and he would definitely bring her away, since she would be using diction that means she would return to the same place where she had use it last, that means this tent.
Until then the sambar can excuse by saying that the girl was resting so that her wounds can be cured.
The sambar blinked eyes in the darkness, the human was not secretive nor overly cautious, it was enough to let the sambar take it as normal, since she advised this human to meet someone who or pour her heart with someone close, it would help her stable her condition.
"You should not worry," half beast spoke and sat at the farther corner of the tent.
There was no tracing of any treachery and trick so the half beast was at ease, she silently observed the human.
Jen sat on the bare floor and brought out the diction, she placed it on the floor and put her hand on it, the seal on the diction started to glow, the half beast saw this and draped the thick curtains for the glow to remain inside the tent.
As the whole seal brightly emitted light, a figure of authoritative old man appeared in front of Jen, he was wearing a crown and looking toward Jen, he extended his hand and grabbed Jen, next instant everything disappeared, the female sambar heaved deep breath, there was no one except half beast in the tent at this moment,
Jen finally has decided to face her great grandfather, what would he say? Would he scold her for being careless? Would he get angry to see her in the bad condition? So be it, she also wanted to cry on his chest, so much cry until her eyes get waterless.
The old man carried her in his embrace and travelled through the space of his own diction, his bulky and giant disposition was enough to completely hide her in order to not get harmed by the dangerous space, it was more than dangerous than what she had seen back then, the territory of his cultivation layers.
There were many secrets which he wanted her to learn but her stubbornness always hindered them to teach and learn.
Jen closed her eyes and she felt she was in her dream, it was like a dream, the journey was taking place inside the diction so it blurred her vision, also the old man who was holding her in his embrace resembled to her great grandfather but his eyes seemed empty or devoid of any emotions, was he angry?
But there was no expression on his face, he should at least show his angry expressions at least so that she could gather what he was thinking.
Jen was clueless that the old man who was holding her was the shadow of her great grandfather, the real body and person was sitting on the throne with closed eyes, as soon as she placed her hand on the seal and triggered it through her central acmes pair, her great grandfather dismissed everything and went to bring his grandchild wherever she was.
So a shadow definitely cannot show expressions, he even did not notice her apparent condition, it was one of the characteristics of a supreme root cultivator, at certain level of achievement, the cultivator can broaden his level of approach, what was space, a human concept until explored.
The tribe of half beasts was at its normal routine, the teams were alert, the leader was taking stroll to check situation.
The human tribe was still silent, the hunter gritted his teeth but he was waiting for few days to pass before he plan to attack, but it would be a small one since he wanted half beasts to fear human tribe.
A human from human tribe who was very confident after these strange people appear casted a glance on a woman, the woman was evolved beast and only her red luscious lips can be seen from the draped hoody gown.
He was fed up to just look at her from afar, he needed to do something to get her.
