The End Times as a Song

Chapter 100 A Clever Idea

"Ah Yan, Qingqiu is just ahead. We're finally back...!"

When Li Luo saw her long-lost home, she was as happy as a child. She turned to Tu Shan Yan and said...

"...!"

Tu Shan Yan, however, was unhappy and speechless. Tu Shan Yan was just an abandoned fox from Qingqiu; what did it matter to him what happened to Qingqiu? His family would always be the people of Fangcao Village.

"Ah Yan, hurry up...! Don't dawdle...! You're already back. Cheer up, you'll see your mother and father later...!"

Li Luo couldn't hide her joy as she urged Tu Shan Yan behind her.

"What's so great about that...? A lousy Qingqiu...?"

Tu Shanyan glanced at the Qingqiu territory not far away, turned around disdainfully, and replied to Li Luo's words with his back to Qingqiu.

"Ah Yan, don't forget what you promised Huan Huan. Stop running away; you'll have to face it eventually...!"

Li Luo, watching Tu Shan Yan's retreating figure, intentionally or unintentionally used Huan Ru Ge to remind Tu Shan Yan.

"Liluo, stop using Huanhuan to pressure me. I will keep my promise to her. It has nothing to do with you. Don't bring Huanhuan up."

Tu Shanyan crossed his arms in front of his chest and angrily retorted to Li Luo.

"Then why aren't you coming in with me...?"

Li Luo said to Tu Shan Yan in a fit of anger.

"Wait, I'm not ready yet. I've been walking for so long, I'm exhausted. Let me rest for a bit...?"

Tu Shanyan sat down on the ground.

"You...! You...! Why are you resting again...?"

In her haste, Li Luo stepped forward to try and pull Tu Shan Yan up.

"Ouch...! That hurts...?"

Tu Shanyan suddenly clutched his chest and cried out in pain.

"Where does it hurt...? Let me see... Is your injury still not healed?"

Li Luo examined it carefully.

"Does it still hurt?"

After Li Luo finished her checkup, she asked with concern.

"You'll be fine after a rest...!"

Tu Shanyan straightened his clothes.

"Ah Yan, you've rested so many times already. Can't you go home and rest a bit more? We're almost there, why are you still resting...?"

Seeing that Tu Shan Yan seemed unwilling to continue the journey back to Qingqiu, Li Luo knew that Tu Shan Yan was definitely trying to stall for time again. She couldn't help but say a few more words to Tu Shan Yan, but Tu Shan Yan didn't care and continued to rest on the spot.

"Alright, alright, whatever! You'll have to face it sooner or later. It's already at your doorstep, no matter how much you try to run away this time, you can't escape it...!"

Unlike Huan Rugo, Li Luo wasn't as tolerant of Tu Shan Yan; her temper flared up easily. She bluntly reminded Tu Shan Yan of this.

"snort……!"

Tu Shanyan remained unconcerned. He snorted coldly, plucked a blade of grass from the ground, lay down on it, crossed his legs, looked up at the sky, and thought of Huan Ruge.

"Huanhuan, I wonder if you made it back to Fangcao Village safely...? Will Mother Ran scold me if she sees that I didn't go back with Huanhuan? If I can return to Fangcao Village, I swear I will never leave Fangcao Village again."

Tu Shanyan silently repeated it hundreds of times in his heart. Li Luo was helpless against Tu Shanyan, so she could only stay and rest with him. Just as the two of them were bored, a voice suddenly called out to Li Luo.

"Li Luo, you're back...?"

The voice was neither male nor female, and soon after, a colorful butterfly flew over and appeared in front of Li Luo.

"Yes, Cai, I'm back...!"

Pear Blossom happily caught the butterfly that flew by.

"who is he……?"

Cai Die asked Li Luo curiously.

"Ah Cai, he is Tu Shan Yan...! The heir of the Nine-Tailed Fox...?"

Li Luo teased the butterflies and introduced Tu Shan Yan's identity.
