Chapter 881: Chapter 881

"Child, calm down. If you want to find the Little Princess, I won’t stop you, but you need to heal your wounds first. How can I be at ease with you going out to find someone?"

"Father, Xiao’ai has never been away from home, away from me, for so long. She is still young and can’t take care of herself. I don’t even know if she has been bullied out there, if she’s had enough to eat, if she’s warm... I just can’t set my mind at ease about her." As Ye Qi thought of these things, his heart felt as if it had been stabbed with a knife.

He’d feel heartache for days if Wen Xiao’ai so much as cut her finger, and the thought of her being possibly bullied outside, unable to take care of herself, made him wish he could fly to her side immediately.

"And, and she hasn’t taken her medicine for six months. What if she starts to remember things..."

This was also something he feared.

The possibility of Nie Jiuque’s revival made him even more uneasy.

"I know, I know it all, but in your current state, I’m afraid something might happen to you before you even find the Little Princess."

Elder Ye completely understood Ye Qi’s feelings, but with things as they were, he couldn’t be at ease.

If there were no problems in the tribe, he would personally accompany Ye Qi to search for her, but given the current situation, with thousands in their clan displaced with no contact, and most of the clan dead or injured, and their home destroyed, they had to be prepared to defend against the Demon Realm’s possible return. He just couldn’t leave.

"I can do it, Father, please let me go."

"No, it’s too dangerous. If something happens to you, what would your mother and I do?"

"Child, can you wait until you recover a bit more before you go? I’m asking you as a father."

After much persuasion, Elder Ye managed to keep Ye Qi from leaving for the time being.

"Elder Ye, Elder Ye, my uncle found thirteen clan members at Qingfeng Ridge, three of them are seriously injured. Please come take a look."

A young Cat Demon, whose ears and tail hadn’t fully hidden yet, rushed in hurriedly.

"I’ll be right there," Elder Ye said after hearing the news.

With that, he looked at Ye Qi, then bent down and solemnly whispered to him, "Child, remember, no one can know about the Little Princess having Immortal Shang Ying’s soul fragment within her, not even the other elders in the clan. If this gets out, it will bring calamity to our Cat Demon Clan.

"Rest well then. I’ll go see how they are injured and have someone bring you your medicine shortly."

After reminding him, Elder Ye quickly left with the young Cat Demon.

After Elder Ye left, Ye Qi didn’t seem inclined to rest. He sat on the bed, his eyes fixed on the direction of the door.

A few minutes later, Ye Qi resolutely got up from the bed. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ NoveIFire.net

He quickly put on his outer garment, took his sword, and was ready to set off to the Human Realm to find Wen Xiao’ai.

However, he was stopped by a barrier before he could leave the room.

Ye Qi instantly recognized whose aura this barrier carried.

His father knew him best, realized he wouldn’t rest at home peacefully to heal, and would definitely go out to find Wen Xiao’ai, so he set up a barrier.

Ye Qi gripped his sword tightly, standing at the door, clearly unwilling to give up just like that.

In the end, he reluctantly turned back around.
