"You mean to say —"
Mo Qiang seemed to have understood what Xiao Jiao was trying to say, but at the same time, she thought it was too unbelievable. How could such a thing be possible? However, when she looked at the solemn look on her face, Mo Qiang understood that the little squirrel was not pulling her leg, but she truly meant it.
She closed her eyes and inhaled heavily. Her head was throbbing wildly when she thought about how the thing that she needed to defeat was not a mutated sentient being but a demonic entity that was actually trying to instill fear in the hearts of humans.
"How am I supposed to deal with such a thing?" she questioned Xiao Jiao, who looked at her with a sympathetic look in her eyes.
She ruffled her feathers and then said to Mo Qiang, "Well, there is one way to deal with her." Though she said that, her expression was not looking good, which made Mo Qiang raise her head and look at her with a troubled expression. Because the last time this fairy looked at her with such an expression, Mo Qiang ended up almost being chewed by a gigantic snake.
"Don’t look at me like that." Xiao Jiao waved her hand and then said to Mo Qiang, "It is going to be foolproof."
"Are you sure?" Mo Qiang didn’t quite trust the little squirrel, because no matter what, every time this little one came up with a plan, something happened in one way or another.
In response, Xiao Jiao patted her chest and said to Mo Qiang with a confident look on her face, "I am sure!"
Three hours later.
"So you were sure, huh?" Mo Qiang remarked while sitting inside a prison. Her eyes were staring at the bars hopelessly as she silently worried about her father and her husbands. She had hoped that things would not come to this, but it seemed like relying on Xiao Jiao was simply foolish!
Xiao Jiao lowered her head as she couldn’t understand how things developed in such a fashion. As far as she knew, the God of War had always been on good terms with her, but this time around, when she took Mo Qiang to get the fruit of strength and spiritual energy, she was actually imprisoned by the minions of the God of War. How could such a thing happen to her!?
"I didn’t know that they would imprison us," Xiao Jiao said sadly. "They have always been polite to the Goddess of Nature, but it seems like just because she is no longer here, they are looking down on us."
Xiao Jiao was heartbroken. And Mo Qiang knew that she was truly upset, because even when Xiao Jiao was pushed in a corner, she never accepted that the Goddess of Nature was gone.
This was the first time she was willing to accept that the Goddess of Nature was no longer by her side and it showed how hurt she was due to it.
