Chapter 983: Clues

"I've heard everything that happened just now, they're all for my good, for my sake, please don't hurt them." Leona raised her head with difficulty, and added in a hoarse voice, as the shield of the Sun Sect, she had not fulfilled her duty to protect everyone, how could she be willing to let her own people die because of her.

Remembering Leona's release of water in the daytime battle, Jeno also showed mercy.

"Don't get in my way anymore."

He drew a dividing line on the ground with the tip of his gun, warning the two men not to cross it. Otherwise, it will be broken in two, like the spear in his hand.

The two finally saw the gap between themselves and Jeno, the barrel of the gun was gilded, and it was possible to break it to show how terrible Jeno's strength was. Looking at the dividing line under their feet, which was only big enough to stand on their legs, and the snow-capped cliffs beside them, they felt that their eyes were in a trance.

Leona breathed a sigh of relief as she watched Jeno let the two go. She shook her head, feeling a little better in her groggy state, and tried to sit up with her arms propped up, but collapsed halfway through the exhaustion.

Jeno approached and helped her against the wall, and Leona smiled at his kindness. She was well aware of her physical condition and could not do anything without help.

"Thank you. It's just that I have a question, why do you want to save me when you walk with Diana? ”

"Speak less, you're too weak now." Jeno glanced at Leona obliquely, the woman was dying, and she was still thinking about what to do with him.

As for why he wanted to save Leona? Of course, it was to prevent Diana from turning against the Moonstone Sect because of the death of her best friend, so that Nami could not get the Moonstone smoothly.

Moreover, many of the doubts in his mind can probably only be solved by going up the mountain and asking Soraka. It wasn't a day or two since Jeno wanted to see the Son of the Stars, something he had been thinking about since he first came here.

Leona did not dare to disobey him, and sat quietly and watched the snow melt and boil little by little, and then the hot steam came out.

Jeno poured boiling water into a clean cup and held it to Leona's mouth.

"Be careful, it's hot."

Leona blew into the cup, and the steaming water immediately covered her face, and she couldn't breathe well, and immediately coughed.

Jeno immediately set the glass aside and patted her gently on the back until her cough subsided.

It seems that the people here have no experience in drinking hot water, so he can only blow the water temperature to the right temperature by himself, and then hand it to her and let her hold it for herself.

She took a shallow taste, and the ordinary snow water seemed to turn into nectar for nine days in her mouth. After getting the long-awaited sweetness, every cell in the body began to resonate, and they were instinctively thirsting for more moisture. She let go of her reserve, and her movements went wild, responding to instinct with a cooing swallow.

She tilted her head and opened her mouth, letting the last drop slip down her throat, then licked the chapped corners of her mouth with a lingering expression.

"Ahem, thanks... Thank you......" Feeling the residual warmth of the water glass on the palm of her hand, Leona expressed her heartfelt gratitude to Jeno.

"Drink slowly, there's a lot, I'll help you fill it."

Jeno reached for the cup, but Leona wouldn't let go.

"I'm feeling better, I'm pouring the water myself, I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble."

"It's troublesome enough to carry you up the mountain, I don't care about any more."

"That's... Thank you. Leona nodded awkwardly but politely.

I didn't expect that drinking water would cause so much trouble, and when Leona finished drinking the hot water, Jeno couldn't help but carry her behind him. However, this time, Leona took the initiative to cooperate with him, and it went a little smoother.

Seeing that Jeno was about to hit the road, the two samurai realized that if they didn't open their mouths, they wouldn't have a chance.

They said to Leona, who was passing by, "Chief, let us take you back to the Temple of the Equinox when the blizzard stops." No matter what injuries you have, the priests will find a way to save you. ”

"Go back and tell the priest that I have been poisoned by a rare poison, and that I can only be cured by going to the mountains. Don't worry too much, just go on a pilgrimage. ”

Leona knew that her physical condition was very bad, and even if she insisted on seeing Soraka in the place, she might not be cured, but she still told her subordinates in a very positive tone. If even she panicked, then the entire Burning Sun Sect would definitely be in a panic.

"This ...... All right. Seeing that the leaders had said so, they had no choice but to stop there. It's better to go back with bad news than to bring nothing at all.

Jeno waited until they were finished, then asked casually.

"Have you ever heard of a humanoid creature with horns on its forehead? Live on the Giant God Peak and heal the injuries of the climbers who are lucky enough to see her. ”

"Are you talking about the Vastayas? Sorry, I've never heard of Inhumans living on the Titan Peak. The younger samurai shook his head, for in his mind, there were only beasts with horns on the mountain.

Still, the older samurai next to him had something to say.

"Long horns on the forehead...... I seem to have heard from a girl in the tribe. She said that she had tried to climb to the top in order to become a Rahorlac, but met a horned healer on the mountainside. The lilac-skinned healer said that she would die if she continued to climb, because she had climbed the summit for the sake of it, and had not chosen her own direction. The healer treated the girl for a fatal frostbite, and the girl listened to her advice and chose to turn back. I heard her say this when I was training her, and I thought she had made up a story to lie to me that she had tried to reach the summit and he never told anyone else...... I didn't expect it to be true, I blamed her, I didn't even have the courage to try to reach the top......"

This Rahorak lowered his head in shame, thinking that there was another person in front of him who had successfully reached the peak, and he suddenly wanted to die.

"Where did the girl meet the healer?"

"It seems to be on the eastern slope......

"I hope you don't remember miserably, or you'll be partly responsible for Leona's death." Jeno snorted coldly and picked up the pickaxe from the edge of the cave.

"It's okay, the sun will rise as usual whether it's windy or rainy."

Leona's exhortation shone into her heart like a ray of sunshine, and the samurai looked at her sun-like face and felt full of power.

"Even if we burn ourselves, we will let the sun continue to shine!"

The two men made room for him, and after Jeno confirmed that Leona was tightly tied to him, he slammed his pickaxe into the rock wall.

"Are you ready?" He asked.

"That's it." Leona put her hood on, and she regained some strength, and Jeno could feel the slight force of his hands around his neck, instead of lying on his shoulders as he had done before.

Feeling the heat on the back of his neck, Jeno kicked his feet and threw himself into the wind and snow again.
