At the same time, Zuo Chi's unwavering voice rang in her ears.
"I'll help you!"
Nestled in Zuo Chi's arms, Ai Xi was completely stunned.
She simply nestled quietly in Zuo Chi's arms, her chin resting on his shoulder, staring blankly at the window on the wall behind them.
The wind and snow outside the window continued to howl, and the extreme cold made the flickering flames inside the camp flicker.
But it was at this moment that the flame in Ashe's heart quietly flickered and grew stronger.
"Zuo Chi, do you have a solution?" Aisha asked, her voice trembling as she leaned close to Zuo Chi's ear.
Zuo Chi nodded and said in a deep voice:
"Now, you need to find someone who is neither from any tribe, nor affiliated with any demigod, and has no ties to any tribe to be your blood sworn brother. And the most important point, the one that will determine everything:"
This person must be strong enough to crush any challenger, strong enough to prevent anyone from even considering resistance, strong enough to make everyone feel that one person is enough for you!
As soon as Zuo Chi finished speaking, he could clearly feel Aisha's body, which was lying in his arms, suddenly tremble slightly.
Ashe looked at Zuo Chi's face and asked blankly, "I have thought about this before, but how difficult is it to find someone like this in Freljord now? Where am I supposed to look?"
Under Aisha's gaze, Zuo Chi's lips curled up slightly, and he winked at Aisha.
"Hey?"
Seeing Zuo Chi's actions, Aisha first tilted her head, then looked at the smile on Zuo Chi's face.
Gradually, a faint blush crept onto Aisha's cheeks. She quickly took a step back and broke free from Zuo Chi's embrace.
She kept waving her hands and shaking her head: "No, no, no, everyone else can do it, but you can't."
As she spoke, the scene that had happened not long ago began to echo in Aisha's mind.
Sejuani: "If you don't want it, then don't touch it. Keep it for me!"
Ashe: "My Avarosan tribe is not your Winter's Claw. If Zuo Chi doesn't want to, I naturally won't force him to do anything!"
Sejuani: "That's good. Once he gets his luggage from you, have him come to Winter's Claw. Don't meddle too much. I'll make him my blood oath!"
"."
Ashe's conversation with Sejuani was still echoing in her mind. She could even imagine Sejuani sitting in the Winter's Claws' camp, eagerly waiting for Zuo Chi to come over.
He had only promised them less than a day ago, and then he turned around and broke the blood oath they had made.
But should I really reject Zuo Chi and give him to Sejuani?
Aisha's eyes were filled with struggle and entanglement. She quietly raised her head, wanting to see how Zuo Chi was behaving, but at that moment, her gaze met Zuo Chi's eyes, which were full of self-doubt.
"Why can't I?"
Zuo Chi looked at his hands with a sense of despair: "Could it be that I don't meet any of the conditions I just mentioned?"
"no no no"
Aisha quickly waved her hand: "You're very strong, much stronger than me, and you meet all the other requirements, which is great!"
"Then why can't I?" Zuo Chi suddenly stopped halfway through his sentence.
He looked at Aisha with an expression that was a mixture of sudden realization and deep sadness.
"You simply don't like me."
After thinking about it carefully, Zuo Chi realized that it made sense. After all, he wasn't a native of Freljord, and his clothing and lifestyle were different from those here. It was understandable that Ashe didn't like him.
No wonder they said I was a good person; it turns out they were subtly implying that I'm a good person!
"No!" Aisha quickly grabbed Zuo Chi's arm. "No!"
Aisha gripped Zuo Chi's hand tightly, her face flushed with anxiety, and all the majesty she usually possessed as the War Mother was gone at this moment.
Seeing Aisha's reaction, Zuo Chi leaned closer to her face and asked with a smile, "Why is that?"
"Because.Because"
Aisha opened her mouth several times to explain, but after thinking for a long time, all she could do was turn her face red with embarrassment and couldn't come up with anything.
You can't exactly tell Zuo Chi, "You're already betrothed to Sejuani, I can't steal her man!"
However, just as Ashe was caught in a dilemma and struggling, a large hand landed on her head and ruffled her long, silvery-white hair.
At the same time, Zuo Chi's voice rang out again: "It's okay, it's fine if you don't say anything."
"Ok?"
Aisha looked at Zuo Chi, only to see his helpless smile.
"There's no rule that says winning a tournament means you have to consummate your marriage. We can just go through the motions. I'll only help you deal with those delusional tribes. After that, I'll leave the Avarosa tribe and go check out the Winter's Claws."
As this is what Aisha most wants to accomplish right now, Zuo Chi is determined to help her achieve it no matter what, even if she hates him.
Only in this way can Zuo Chi fulfill the system's requirements and unlock the skin system!
The activation of the weapon identification system has greatly helped Zuo Chi in assessing the enemy's combat strength, and Zuo Chi believes that the activation of the skin system will also help him in the future.
So you should give it a try eventually.
As for the matter of Aisha after winning the martial arts tournament, Zuo Chi didn't think much about it. Even Zuo Chi himself wasn't ready to get married, so he never dared to dream of actually becoming Aisha's blood ally.
But just because Zuo Chi didn't think much of it doesn't mean the female protagonist of this matter didn't think much of it either!
Hearing Zuo Chi's helpless tone and looking at his slightly dim eyes, Aisha felt a wave of disappointment rising in her heart, making her extremely uncomfortable.
Looking back from the first time she met Zuo Chi until now, Zuo Chi has always appeared when she needed help the most and pulled her out of the abyss.
And all she seemed to say to Zuo Chi was a few words of thanks?
Now, Zuo Chi has come up with the best solution to her predicament and is willing to sacrifice himself to help her through the crisis, but she ruthlessly rejects Zuo Chi because of her promise to Sejuani.
As she thought about it, Aisha's gaze towards Zuo Chi became increasingly moved, eventually even welling up with a deep, watery light.
Looking at Aisha's teary eyes, Zuo Chi assumed that she wasn't even willing to accept what he had just said.
"Is this not enough?" Zuo Chi asked in a low voice. "I won't be your blood sworn brother, I won't touch you, and you don't need to give me anything. Just let me participate in the martial arts tournament."
"No!" Ashe cried out anxiously.
Zuo Chi: "."
Upon hearing Aisha's answer, Zuo Chi was completely bewildered.
What can you do if the other person doesn't want to? If Ashe's wish isn't fulfilled, his skin system won't be able to be activated.
In fact, Zuo Chi didn't understand one thing: when Aishe said "can't," did she mean she couldn't participate in the martial arts tournament, or did she mean something else?
However, just as Zuo Chi hesitated, Aisha suddenly seemed to have made some important decision in her heart. She raised her head and looked at Zuo Chi with a resolute expression.
Let Sejuani complain all she wants, I don't care. Once I've made it a done deal, Zuo Chi will be my blood oath alone!
"Zuo Chi, please help me!"
Zuo Chi was stunned again, looking suspiciously at Aisha, who looked like she was going to her death.
He was a little confused as to why Ash suddenly agreed, when she had been so adamant in refusing before.
Ultimately, Zuo Chi came to a conclusion: in order to maintain the stability of the Avarosa tribe, Ashe finally decided to put aside her dignity and reluctantly accept the ugly Zuo Chi as her nominal blood ally.
Moreover, the main reason why Aisha reluctantly agreed was because Zuo Chi had promised that he would not touch her, and that Zuo Chi would leave immediately after resolving the problem, so as not to remain in the sight of the Avarosa tribe!
For the first time, this was the first time Zuo Chi felt his iron will had been struck.
You can't be so disrespectful!
With a wry smile, Zuo Chi shook his head, took a step back, and waved to Ai Xi.
"Then it's settled. I will participate in the martial arts tournament, and after that, I will leave."
Zuo Chi didn't say anything more, turned around and walked out of the room, quickly disappearing into the long snowy night.
He planned to say hello to Razer and his tribe members before leaving the Avarosa tribe after the tournament.
As for Aisha, she only snapped out of her chaotic thoughts after Zuo Chi's figure disappeared into the snowy night.
Looking at the empty room, Aisha was a little puzzled as to why Zuo Chi left without saying goodbye, but her determination quickly took over.
"Hmph, if Sejuani wants to steal him away, let her come! I was able to protect Zuo Chi the first time, and I can certainly protect him the second time!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a strange look flashed in Ashe's eyes.
She lifted her skirt and looked herself up and down before activating the sound transmission gem on the side of the room.
Soon, there was another knock on the door. Ashe opened the door, and standing there was a female warrior wearing a fur coat.
She is Ashe's war priestess, Sigra.
The so-called war priests were actually the assistants of the tribal war mothers, similar to personal bodyguards.
Sigra looked at Aisha curiously: "War Mother, what are your orders?"
Aisha pulled Sigla into the room and looked at her mysteriously.
“Sigera, I remember when our tribe traded with Demacia last time, didn’t they give us some clothes worn by the nobles there as a gift?”
"Hey?"
Sigra looked at Aisha with a blank expression, but she still nodded: "That's right, the War Mother was actually a tribute from those merchants to you in order to establish stable trade relations."
