Double Cultivation
qin Liangyu's request for help
"As expected, there's not much information here either." Tang Lingxi sighed as she put the scroll in her hand down.
"You can't expect much. It was not easy to figure out the origin of a treasure like this mirror. However, for some reason, I don't think it's the first time I've seen that mirror." Su Yang said with a contemplated expression.
"Whatchu mean? Have you ever seen that mirror before?" Tang Lingxi tilted her head.
Su Yang nodded and continued, "i've tried to remember where I've seen it before since I saw it, but I can't think of it in my head. Maybe I'm just wrong."
Although he could not remember where he had seen the Dark Mirror before, there had only been a familiar feeling within him ever since he had seen that mirror.
"I'm sure you'll remember it somewhere. But for now, let's go to the next tribe to see if they have another." Tang Lingxi said.
Su Yang nodded, and the two of them left the hut a moment later.
"We're done here" Su Yang said to Qin Liangyu, who was patiently waiting outside.
"Do you want to see another tribe, or do you have enough information now?" Qin Liangyu asked.
"Let's see some more tribes."
"i understand. Let me tell Chief Li about our departure first." Qin Liangyu said before looking for him.
"Chairman Li, we're leaving now."
"Hm? Are they done? Then allow me to say goodbye to them."
A while later, Chief Li and Qin Liangyu walked to the gate.
"If you wish to return for another visit, our doors are always open to you, Esteemed Guest!" Chief Li bowed to them, and he said to Qin Liangyu before they left, "Head Qin, please don't forget our previous conversation."
"Don't worry, I won't forget it." Qin Liangyu said as they began their journey to another tribe.
After leaving the Firefly Tribe, Qin Liangyu led Su Yang and Tang Lingxi to many tribes around the Southern Continent, traveling thousands of miles in just a few days.
Earth Tribe, Totem Tribe, Steel Tribe, Life Tribe – Su Yang, and Tang Lingxi visited more than a dozen tribes during these few days, all of them were, and they have read over thousands of scrolls about the Dark Mirror. However, they could not find any useful information, as each tribe had almost the same information and had only a slight difference.
As for Qin Liangyu, he was unable to find the right time to talk to Su Yang about their complications with the Lion Tribe. Furthermore, he wanted to deepen their relationship for a few more days before he asked for help from them, as that would definitely make it easier to ask for his help.
"There's nothing you need to regret, because it's not your fault if there's not enough information out there." Su Yang calmly shook his head and said, "After all we never expected to find much."
A moment later, Su Yang continued speaking, "By the way, I have felt a feeling of concern and distress from you. Are you having trouble with something?"
"I-That's.." Qin Liangyu showed a hesitant expression. "I shouldn't force my problems on you, Senior Su…"
"If anything bothers you, I'm here for you. Not only have you taken the time to travel with us, but those worried wrinkles are no match for your pretty face" Su Yang said.
"Ca-Beautiful ?!" Qin Liangyu was surprised by his unexpected praise, making him blush in embarrassment.
In fact, she was so blushed that even her tanned skin could not hide the redness covering her face, like she was having a high fever.
"You know ..." Tang Lingxi suddenly spoke, "He's the type of man who can't leave a woman alone, let alone a beautiful and troubled one, she said, so it would be best if you say out loud your problem so that we can solve this. Believe me, I've experienced it myself, and it'll be annoying after some time."
"Annoxious, yes .." Su Yang showed a smile and said, "If I don't upset you until then, you will never allow me to help you back then, and we won't be in this relationship right now."
After hearing Tang Lingxi's words, Qin Liangyu finally decided to ask for their help.
"It's like this, Senior Su. when we visit the Firefly Tribe, Chief Li asks for my help. She originally wanted me to ask the Goddess, but I felt we could not involve her in our worldly matters, instead she wanted me to ask the two of you for help" Qin Liangyu said and continued,
“As you already know, the Pig Tribe has just been attacked by the Lion Tribe. Lucky for us, the Goddess came at the right time and interrupted their plan, saving our tribe. But the others were not as lucky as us, and we were not the only ones terrorized by the Lion Tribe. In fact, dozens of tribes have they destroyed over the past few months, making them even stronger with each tribe they defeated.”
"Usually, we don't have to worry about the Lion Tribe, because their rank is lower than ours in terms of strength. However, they had gained the help of the Dragon Tribe, causing their strength to increase significantly."
“According to us the Lion Tribe will not stop anytime soon – at least until they dominate and destroy most of the tribes out there. So.. The Pig Tribe. and the tribes we visited these few days.wanted to humbly ask for help from Senior Su." Qin Liangyu spoke as he slowly kowtowed on the floor, pleading for their help.
"…"
Su Yang did not respond immediately. In fact, Tang Lingxi was the first to speak.
"Can you tell me something? If you find the Lion Tribe as a threat but cannot defeat it alone, why don't you ask for the help of another tribe alone? Since you all share the same interest, it would be wise for you to combine your strength and fight the Lion Tribe together."
"Indeed, there was that method ... but ..." Qin Liangyu shook his head and said, "Not every tribe is friendly with each other. In fact, most of them hate each other. The tribes that we have visited in recent times are an exception because they already have friendly relations with the Pig Tribe."
“As for the other tribes, they would rather die than shake hands with the other tribes – even if it meant the destruction of their entire tribe. It would be easier to defeat the Lion Tribe alone than to unite the tribes and fight together.Even if the tribes were willing to cooperate, they were all smaller tribes without much strength. "
