Seeing that the two sides were about to fight, Shuang Yun stepped forward to stop them at the critical moment.
He faced Cang Hua and said sincerely, “This is my friend. He saved my life. No matter what misunderstanding there is between you, can you let him go this time for my sake?”
Although he was still unhappy, for Shuang Yun’s sake, Cang Hua chose to take a step back. “Let him go!”
The wolf beasts retreated.
Huanhuan easily broke free from the ice on her feet.
Cang Hua stared at her face and ordered her to leave. “On account of Shuang Yun, we won’t bicker with you about stealing the offerings for the time being. Leave immediately. The Silvery Frost White Wolf Tribe doesn’t welcome you!”
Huanhuan was about to explain when Shuang Yun interrupted her. He walked up to her. “Get out of here and stop causing trouble.”
Huanhuan was very angry. “They framed me for being a thief!”
“I’ll investigate things for you. If you’re really being framed, I’ll apologize on their behalf. But before that, please get out of here.”
Huanhuan was unhappy. “They’re the ones who did something wrong. Why should I give in?!”
Shuang Yun said, “This is the territory of the Silvery Frost White Wolf. You’re just an outsider. You won’t get any benefits here. I’m asking you to leave for your own good.”
Huanhuan thought that with her current strength, she did not have to worry about being at a disadvantage.
However, Shuang Yun was doing this for her own good. She didn’t want to make things difficult for him, so she could only agree reluctantly. “Alright, I’ll leave on your account.”
“After you leave, don’t come back.”
Huanhuan quickly asked, “Why?”
Shuang Yun said indifferently, “We only met by chance. Now that I’ve found the people I’m looking for, you can go about your business. Let’s part ways here.”
“But I don’t want to be separated from you.”
Shuang Yun frowned, feeling a little impatient. “You saved my life before, and I asked them to let you off this time. We’re even now. From now on, we’ll go our separate ways. I hope you won’t bother me again.”
With those last words, he turned and left without hesitation.
Huanhuan wanted to follow him, but just as she raised her front foot, she heard him say coldly.
“If you follow me again, don’t blame me for being rude.”
Huanhuan was very hurt. She could only stand where she was and watch Shuang Yun leave with Cang Hua.
The wolf beasts remained where they were, staring at her warily.
Huanhuan left the canyon in disappointment.
She looked at the white snowfield in front of her and couldn’t help but mutter, “Shuang Yun really doesn’t recognize me anymore.”
The system said, “Of course. Even your biological mother won’t recognize you in your current state.”
“Can’t I tell him the truth?”
“What truth? Are you going to tell him that you’re actually Lin Huanhuan? He’ll definitely beat you up and throw you out.”
Huanhuan touched her chest and abs confidently. “He might not be able to beat me now.”
“Yes, you can knock him down with one punch now. That’s awesome!”
Huanhuan: “…”
The system continued his analysis. “Even if Shuang Yun’s brain is fried and he believes you’re Huanhuan, what do you want him to do then? Do you want him to hold your hand and support you wherever he goes like before?”
Huanhuan said shyly, “Yes.”
“Silly girl, look down at your current height and touch your muscles. Do you think Shuang Yun can still carry you?”
Huanhuan: “…”
She felt as though she had been shot in the knees with arrows, making her want to kneel and never get up. It hurt!
The system advised, “Don’t let your imagination run wild. Your top priority now is to complete Yu Tian’s last wish. As for Shuang Yun, you can wait until you find the Divine Wood seed and your corpse. You can slowly resolve this matter after you revive.”
Huanhuan replied gloomily, “Okay.”
Suddenly, a voice spoke.
“What are you doing here?”
Huanhuan looked over and saw Old Bear walking over.
He looked behind her. “Where’s your companion? Why are you here alone?”
Huanhuan scratched her cheek awkwardly. “Shuang Yun stayed in the wolf tribe. They chased me out.”
Old Bear was surprised. “Why?”
“They suspect me of stealing their offerings and think I’m a thief.” Huanhuan paused and immediately defended herself. “I’ve never stolen from them. They’ve wronged me!”
Old Bear’s expression changed when he heard the word ‘offerings’. “Do you know what they mean by ‘offerings’?”
Huanhuan was confused. “What?”
“It’s the bear fur coat you’re wearing.”
Huanhuan was stunned. “Huh?!”
“Not far away, there’s a divine mountain. The God of War, Yu Tian, is sleeping on that mountain. The beasts living in the Snow Region will go to the divine mountain to pay their respects and offer sacrifices every once in a while. The bear fur coat you’re wearing should be from a brown bear, right? That brown bear is the sacrifice the Silver Frost White Wolf Tribe made to the God of War, Yu Tian.”
Huanhuan recalled the origin of this bear skin and connected it with what Old Bear had said. The truth was instantly clear.
The snow mountain she woke up on was the divine mountain that Old Bear had mentioned.
And when she saw those prey at the entrance of the ice cave, they were all sacrifices given by the beasts to the God of War, Yu Tian. She plucked their offerings and wore them. She even swaggered to their door. Of course, they would be very angry.
Huanhuan blushed with shame. This was a huge misunderstanding!
Old Bear asked respectfully, “You’re the War God, Yu Tian, right?”
Huanhuan smiled awkwardly. “Hehe, would you believe me if I said I just have the same name as the God of War?”
Old Bear knelt on one knee and clenched one hand into a fist. He pressed it to his chest and bowed respectfully. “Lord Yu Tian, congratulations on waking up from your sleep.”
Huanhuan quickly got him to his feet. “Let’s chat normally. Don’t kneel to me. I’m not used to this.”
Old Bear stood up. “When I first saw you, I was suspicious of your identity, but I couldn’t confirm it. Please forgive me if I was rude.”
Huanhuan expressed her understanding.
“There’ll be a snowstorm here soon. If you don’t mind, you can come to my house for a while.”
“That’ll be inappropriate, won’t it?” Huanhuan said polite words, but her body took the initiative to move closer to him. “Where do you live? Is it far?”
“It’s not far. It’s just ahead. Please follow me.”
Old Bear’s house was at the foot of a snow mountain. He took the initiative to step forward and move a large rock away, revealing the entrance to the cave hidden behind.
Huanhuan followed him into the cave.
This place was quite spacious and clean.
A little female skipped out. “Dad, where did you go?”
Old Bear picked her up. “I went to pick up a guest outside.”
The little female followed his gaze and looked at Huanhuan. Her eyes immediately lit up. “What a handsome big brother!”
Huanhuan: “…”
‘Thank you, but I’ll have to reject the compliment.’
