745: Chapter 158: A CD from the Past for You 745: Chapter 158: A CD from the Past for You “Lang Yong!

Greetings, Young Master!”

“Lang Wu!

Greetings, Young Master!”

The faces of the two warriors of the Wolf Clan were still somewhat pale, but the moment Zi Xing appeared, they immediately rose to bow in submission.

They had been taught since childhood to be eternally loyal to the Purple Star Young Master of the Greedy Wolf Tribe, willing to dedicate their lives for her.

“Thank you for your hard work.” Zi Xing looked at the two warriors of the Greedy Wolf Tribe, feeling a myriad of emotions.

She had left the Highland Greedy Wolf Clan, after many twists and turns, only to end up with just these two remaining warriors, which could be considered a less than fortuitous start.

The two warriors of the Greedy Wolf Tribe recounted to Zi Xing the events that transpired after the battle at the riverbank.

Upon hearing that the Purple Star Young Master had been seriously injured, they couldn’t help but blame themselves again.

“Brother Zhuifeng, we are grateful that you’ve assisted our young master!” Lang Yong looked at Zhuifeng, who stood nervously behind Zi Xing, and revealed a grateful smile: “From now on, you’re my brother!

If you’re ever in trouble, I’ll surely come to your rescue!

As long as you don’t do anything against the Greedy Wolf Tribe, no matter what happens in this world, I’ll bear it for you!”

On one hand, there was genuine gratitude towards the little monster who helped their young master—for such a great favor, the Greedy Wolf Tribe would naturally repay tenfold.

On the other hand, looking at Zhuifeng’s appearance, he seemed just like a little monster kid; a kid like him couldn’t possibly cause any major trouble or stir up a storm, so Lang Yong could boast without feeling any pressure!

Somewhat taken aback, Zhuifeng looked at Lang Yong—could he really handle anything…?

When facing these members of the Greedy Wolf Tribe, his feelings were somewhat complicated.

Having recently unlocked the inheritance of the Greedy Wolf Star, although it was a vast power that required a long time to exhaust, the knowledge he had organized made Zhuifeng understand the connection between the Greedy Wolf Tribe and the Greedy Wolf Star.

The Greedy Wolf Tribe was the guardian tribe of the Greedy Wolf Star.

The Purple Star Young Master is the inherited name for every generation’s young master in the Greedy Wolf Tribe, holding the highest position within the tribe—but this was only within the Greedy Wolf Tribe.

If Zi Xing was akin to an emperor within the Greedy Wolf Tribe, then the Greedy Wolf Star was akin to faith for the tribe, with the Purple Star Young Master serving as each generation’s priest of the Greedy Wolf Star.

Zhuifeng even had the idea that if he could prove that he was the current Greedy Wolf Star, whether it was Zi Xing, Lang Yong, Lang Wu, and others, their attitude towards him would likely change drastically.

In the ancient inheritance memories of the Greedy Wolf Star, there was such a memory—during the flourishing period of the demons, hundreds of thousands of Greedy Wolf Tribe warriors knelt beside the Greedy Wolf Star, showing submission.

Every generation of the Greedy Wolf Star was above all living beings; although not quite as revered as the Godly Land True Dragon, the difference was not far off.

The Greedy Wolf Star remained the faith of the Greedy Wolf Tribe, akin to a totem.

If the Greedy Wolf Star were to wave a hand, the Greedy Wolf Tribe dared to march across the world, not fearing even the Godly Land True Dragon.

In those inherited memories of the Greedy Wolf Star, there was once a record of a certain generation of the Greedy Wolf wielding a sword pointing at the same generation’s Godly Land True Dragon.

A group of fearless individuals, a group that valued honor above life…

Zhuifeng suddenly recalled a playful agreement he had with Mo Xiaofei earlier—if that day ever came and they represented the stances of different tribes…

The Greedy Wolf Tribe is one of the core bloodlines of the ancient monster races, and Zhuifeng, if he revealed his identity as the Greedy Wolf Star, might just have an opportunity to step into the pyramid of the Divine Land Monster Race…

“Brother Zhuifeng, Brother Zhuifeng!” Lang Yong’s voice buzzed in.

“Huh?

What’s up?” Zhuifeng was startled, snapping out of his daydream-like state, appearing somewhat out of sorts.

Seeing this, Lang Yong and Lang Wu couldn’t help but smile, thinking that life for this young monster wasn’t easy, and he was probably quite overwhelmed by the promise, letting his thoughts run wild.

Lang Yong then lightly coughed and said, “Brother Zhuifeng, we’re serious about the promise we made earlier.

But we hope you won’t use it to act tyrannically or behave recklessly.

If you commit any heinous acts, I, Lang Yong, would be the first to not forgive you!”

Zhuifeng awkwardly chuckled twice, subconsciously suppressing the urge to prove he was the Greedy Wolf Star.

“Alright, Zhuifeng is just a child.” Zi Xing said calmly, then instructed, “Lang Yong, Lang Wu, continue to rest and recover here.

I’ll personally go and meet this so-called Little Dragon Lord.”

After arriving at this pet hospital, Zi Xing learned from Lang Yong that the Godly Land True Dragon was not present and was instead replaced by a Little Dragon Lord.

This Little Dragon Lord seemed to have a deep relationship with the Shenzhou Dragon Lord and was even rumored to be a possible illegitimate child of Lord Long.

This matter was significant, so Zi Xing dared not be negligent and had already gathered her composure to go and meet them.

“If there’s nothing else, you can move about freely.”

Saying this, Zi Xing opened the door to leave, but after taking only one step, she recalled the promise Lang Yong made to Zhuifeng.

Considering for a moment, she suddenly took off a small jade pendant from her body, “Take this jade pendant.

If you ever encounter difficulties in the future, you can come to the plateau with it, and my Greedy Wolf Tribe will naturally protect you.”

“Ah, no…” Zhuifeng initially wanted to refuse, but remembering Zi Xing’s resolute personality, he accepted it under the influence of an inexplicable force.

Not that he coveted the so-called protection of the Greedy Wolf Tribe, but this jade pendant seemed to be something Zi Xing carried closely…

Unaware of Zhuifeng’s thoughts, Zi Xing slightly adjusted her clothing and then proceeded to walk slowly towards a certain office, following Lang Yong’s directions.

Watching Zi Xing leave, recalling her words, Zhuifeng sighed again: It seems in Zi Xing’s eyes, he’s just a child…

If I prove I am the Greedy Wolf Star, Zi Xing’s attitude towards me would naturally change completely, wouldn’t it?

But that’s not what I want…

…

Meanwhile.

In a certain office, a little girl was leaning over the desk like a slacker, sipping a cup of coffee and lighting up a cigarette, all while squinting at the surveillance footage on the screen… Watching the Greedy Wolf Tribe’s conversation with Zhuifeng and laughing while clutching her stomach.

“This bunch of idiots, if they knew Zhuifeng was the current Greedy Wolf Star, their facial expressions would be quite a sight.”

But seeing Zi Xing slowly approaching the office on the screen, the little girl couldn’t help but feel troubled.

The two Wolf Clan warriors were clearly muscle-bound simpletons, making it easy to fool them.

But the Purple Star Young Master of the Greedy Wolf Tribe wasn’t likely to be so easily deceived.

Soon after, a knocking sound was heard, and Long Xiruo furrowed her brows, her fingers tapping on the beads left on the table by Gui Qianyi, ultimately deciding against using the beads.

Bleeding herself for a chance to meet the Purple Star Young Master of the Greedy Wolf Tribe clearly didn’t seem worth it.

“Excuse me, is the Little Dragon Lord in?”

Facing Zi Xing’s slightly respectful voice from outside the door, Long Xiruo cleared her throat, quickly tidying up the ashtray on the table, then said calmly, “Come in.”

…

…

“Come in!”

Old Liu didn’t even raise his head, still intently looking at the documents on the table.

Don’t think that being a police station leader is a leisurely job.

However, he was not the kind of person who, while holding a high position, did nothing.

Working overtime every day until ten at night was a common occurrence.

The struggles of leadership, those below may not always know…

I’ve heard tonight is Christmas Eve, shouldn’t you go back early to keep your son company?

Old Liu had a child late in life, and he dotes on his son like a treasure.

Just as this thought crossed his mind, Old Liu saw Officer Ma walk in with a frighteningly dark expression.

Why was he here, this big troublemaker, wasn’t he supposed to be on leave, leaving early to accompany his wife?

Sitting down heavily all of a sudden, without saying a word, Officer Ma stared at him as if he had swallowed dozens of dead flies, looking extremely uncomfortable.

Old Liu hadn’t seen such a look on Officer Ma’s face in years, his heart skipped a beat.

“I…

I’m almost off work.” Old Liu quickly stood up to gather his documents, “Let’s talk about it tomorrow…

Oh, no, let’s talk next week!

I’m busy tomorrow, I’ve got a meeting…”

“Sit down!” Officer Ma slammed his hand on the table.

“Let’s talk this through calmly!

Don’t get excited!

I just bought this table last month, it’s expensive…” Old Liu said weakly, looking at Officer Ma in fear.

“I!

Damn it…” Officer Ma was speechless, looking at this timid guy he felt immense frustration…

However, if it weren’t for this timid guy bearing things for him, Officer Ma knew things wouldn’t have been so easy for him.

He sighed heavily and said solemnly to Old Liu, “Old Liu, we probably can’t leave work now!”

“Why not, weren’t you going to have dinner with my sister…”

Officer Ma looked up and said, “Wang Yuechuan killed someone!”

“If he killed someone, he killed someone, people kill all the time, what’s the big deal…

Wait, who did you say??”

“Wang Yuechuan!” Officer Ma enunciated every word, “Killed someone!

In – the – mortuary!

I’ve already got him detained!”

Old Liu was so shocked he collapsed into his chair.

…

…

Time in the east is always earlier than in the west, in the eastern countries, as time quietly moves to evening, some western places might still be in daylight.

On a quiet foreign path, Tu Jiaqing dressed in simple, plain clothes, was riding a bicycle, slowly advancing, while listening to music on her phone, humming a simple melody softly.

There were also a lot of items placed in the basket in front of the bike.

Soon after, the bike stopped in front of a small but very exquisite manor—at the front of the manor was a small sign reading “Angel Welfare Institute.”

This manor housed many homeless or abandoned children—about half a year ago, this was an empty manor, and now it’s home to many homeless kids.

This was an initiative spearheaded by Tu Jiaqing and her sister Tu Jiaya, they just wanted to do something, maybe for charity, or perhaps, this kind of life was much better than before.

Tu Jiaqing took the items from the bicycle basket, went to the mailbox, took out the mail, and walked towards the manor.

In the manor’s courtyard, a group of children were sitting around a woman, who was holding an acoustic guitar, singing softly.

“Sister Jiaqing!”

The children quickly noticed Tu Jiaqing’s return and dashed toward her—they knew she went out today to buy treats, as there was going to be a Christmas feast tonight!

“Come on, share these candies first!

But remember the rules, don’t take too many, okay?” Tu Jiaqing cheerfully put down a box full of candies for the children to distribute among themselves, and started organizing the day’s collection.

“What did you buy?” Tu Jiaya smiled, bringing the guitar over to her sister’s side.

“I bought lots of goodies!” Without looking back, Tu Jiaqing said, “The owner of the town’s sundry shop even gifted us a bottle of pine wine, we can have some tonight.”

Her sister chuckled, she never expected life to be so fulfilling.

“Huh, what’s this?” Tu Jiaya noticed a small box, tied with ribbons, amongst the pile of items—a gift box, “Whose gift is this?”

“Oh really?” Tu Jiaqing was surprised, “It must have come from the mailbox, but I have no idea who sent it.”

Tu Jiaya chuckled, “Perhaps it’s from someone in the town.

Open it and see.”

Because they opened this welfare institute, the people of the town have been quite friendly to the foreign sisters, often sending over little things.

It’s Christmas today, so getting a gift isn’t unexpected.

Her sister, Tu Jiaqing, slowly opened the box.

Curious, her sister asked, “What was sent?”

“Sister, it’s a CD.” Tu Jiaqing blinked, puzzled, lifting the CD she took out from the box, “But sister, did you release this album before?”

Tu Jiaqing was well-versed with her sister’s every released album, digital or CD.

The cover on this CD was unfamiliar, so curiosity was natural.

Frowning, Tu Jiaya took it, examining it closely, “This CD…

how odd, it’s the one I recorded before leaving…

leaving that place, it wasn’t finished and never published.”

“Sister, can we listen to it?” Tu Jiaqing suddenly asked.

Tu Jiaya nodded.

The sisters hurriedly went inside the manor, took out the CD player, inserted the disc, and soft melodies accompanied by a nearly perfect female voice slowly filled the empty house.

“Sister, this song is…”

“You wrote it, remember?” Tu Jiaya smiled, “It was the first song you created on your website.

I used it, intending to surprise you, but in the end, it couldn’t be released, which is kind of a pity.”

“Not a pity!” Tu Jiaqing softly said, “As long as you can sing it, that’s enough.”

“What a silly kid.”

At some point, the children had gathered around the sister duo, quietly listening to the song playing from the machine.

“Sister, do you think this gift is…”

“Shh…” Tu Jiaya gently placed a finger on her lips, signaling to keep silent.

At this moment, staying quiet was enough.
