"Listen, there is crying in the wind."

Indeed, amidst the roaring of the fire, there were faint sobs.

That was not the wailing of a fairy, but... the heart-wrenching cry of a young girl.

Jian's body trembled violently, and his emerald pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a needle tip.

The faint sobbing sound was like a sharp sword, instantly piercing her hesitant heart.

"This sound..."

Her voice was obviously trembling, and her slender fingers unconsciously clenched the staff.

"There are survivors!"

Zhou Yuan's lips curled up in a meaningful arc, and a hint of approval flashed in his violet eyes:

"The flames I just emitted were karmic fires that can burn away sin."

His fingertips gently stroked the silver key on his chest,

"There's a fine line between destruction and redemption. Only those with pure hearts can survive this flame."

He snapped his fingers gracefully, and the magic bubble surrounding the four people immediately floated towards the direction of the crying.

The surface of the bubbles reflected the firelight, casting colorful spots of light on the charred earth.

Melyuchina curled her lips, her long silver hair dancing in the hot wind:

"It's really troublesome..."

Although she said this, a glimmer of anticipation flashed in her golden vertical pupils.

As the distance got closer, a small figure curled up in a charred tree hole gradually became clear.

It was a human girl of only seven or eight years old, with tear marks all over her dirty little face, and she was holding a half-burnt ragdoll rabbit tightly in her arms.

There was also a bleeding scrape on the girl's knee.

"This is!"

A glint of surprise flashed in Jian's eyes.

"Is this the human girl adopted by Aunt Sam?"

She subconsciously took a step forward, and the magic bubble trembled slightly.

The sunlight filtered through the charred branches, casting mottled shadows on the child, illuminating her shivering thin body.

"Is there anyone who could have survived that massacre?"

A hint of disbelief flashed in Bawanshi's gray eyes.

Her slender fingers unconsciously touched her neck——

The scars left there by fellow tribesmen have long since healed, but the memories are still vivid.

Her experience in Darlington made her realize that those crazy goblins made no distinction when killing people, and even she, an innocent fellow, almost lost her life.

"Because she's human..."

Zhou Yuan sighed softly, the girl's thin figure reflected in his violet eyes.

His slender fingers gently stroked his chin, and the hem of his black windbreaker swayed gently in the breeze.

"And he's a child who hasn't grown up yet."

His voice got a little deeper.

"Even those crazy fairies would let this little girl go for their own 'pleasure'. In a sense, she is indeed a lucky person."

This explanation made Jian even more confused.

This fairy from Paradise was so well protected by the Rain Clan since childhood that she was completely unaware of the cruel nature of other fairies.

Her emerald eyes sparkled with innocence, and her slender fingers were gently stroking the girl's hair.

"Why would they let this child go?"

There was a hint of hope in her voice, as if she was looking for the last light in the darkness.

Even though she vaguely guessed that the answer might not be good, she still held a glimmer of hope in her heart.

Perhaps, those goblins still retain a little bit of kindness?

The little girl gradually stopped sobbing under her gentle touch, her dirty little face raised, tears still in her black eyes.

Although the ragdoll rabbit in her arms was half burnt black, she held it tighter, as if it was her last connection with the world.

Zhou Yuan did not answer Jian's question immediately.

His violet eyes narrowed slightly as he gazed into the depths of the charred forest in the distance.

"Take this child and look for a nearby human settlement."

His voice was low and gentle, yet filled with unquestionable firmness.

"Preferably, one hidden deep in the mountains and forests—a settlement for the expelled."

He shook his head slightly, the hem of his black windbreaker swaying gently in the wind mixed with ash.

His fingertips unconsciously stroked the silver key on his chest, and the metal surface reflected the flickering firelight.

"after..."

His voice suddenly turned cold, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes.

"I will show you with your own eyes what happens to humans who are 'taken in' by goblins here."

There was a chilling calmness in his tone as he spoke the last few words.

In the distance, a wisp of black smoke rose up, looking like dried blood under the setting sun.

The little girl seemed to sense something and unconsciously shrank into Jian's arms, her dirty little hands tightly grasping her long golden hair.

......

"So this is what mother was like back then?"

The figure of the young Jian in the crystal ball was reflected in Ba Wanxi's gray eyes, and the corners of her mouth rose unconsciously.

Her pointed little fangs gleamed like pearls in the candlelight, making her look particularly playful and cute.

"cough--"

Morgan coughed lightly, and her slightly flushed cheeks were faintly visible under the black veil.

She gracefully brushed her long silver hair with her slender fingers, trying to hide the fleeting embarrassment.

"After all, I was..."

Her voice softened a little, and a hint of nostalgia flashed in her emerald eyes.

"I just saw the truth of this world."

The fingertips gently slid across the surface of the crystal ball, causing a circle of tiny ripples.

Morgan's gaze became profound, as if he could see through time and see his past self.

"Speaking of which, I am now..."

She paused, with a hint of imperceptible tenderness in her voice.

"It is inextricably linked to what he did at the time."

"I'm leaving this child in your care!"

Jian looked around the simple human settlement and finally set his eyes on the middle-aged man in front of him.

A complex emotion flashed in her emerald eyes, and her slender fingers unconsciously clenched the staff.

"What are you talking about, Master Fairy?"

The man bowed slightly, his voice just the right amount of respect.

But the fleeting vigilance under his lowered eyelids was like a firefly in the dark night, invisible to Jian and Zhou Yuan.

"..."

Jian pursed his lips and swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

The experiences during this period taught her to keep her emotions deep in her heart.

"Let's go, they'll take good care of the child."

Zhou Yuan's voice suddenly rang in her heart and was transmitted directly into her consciousness through telepathy.

His voice was low and firm, carrying unquestionable power.

"People who don't protect each other cannot survive in this world."

These words hit Jian's heart like a heavy hammer.

She took a last look at the little girl who was taken away by the villagers. When she turned around, her long golden hair drew a decisive arc in the sunset.

In the distance, smoke rises, adding a bit of vitality to this isolated little settlement.

......

"Alan, what should we do next?"

Shortly after Zhou Yuan and his companions left, a haggard-looking woman walked out slowly from the inner room, her rough fingers nervously twisting the edge of her apron.

She lowered her voice, as if she was afraid of disturbing something.

The man called Alan still stared into the distance, his vigilance undiminished.

His rough fingers unconsciously stroked the dagger at his waist, his voice low and firm:

"Notify everyone to pack up immediately. No matter how those goblins found this place, it means this hiding place is no longer safe!"

Halfway through his speech, his tone suddenly softened and he turned to look at the little girl holding a stuffed rabbit in the corner.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone through the window lattice, casting mottled light and shadows on her dirty little face.

"As for this child..."

He sighed softly.

"Just give it to your sister to raise. Hasn't she always wanted a child?"

At the same time, high in the sky.

Zhou Yuan stood in the air with the three girls, their black windbreakers rustling in the evening breeze.

Ash's face was a little pale, and his emerald eyes reflected the hastily relocated human settlement below.

Her slender fingers gripped the staff tightly, her knuckles turning white from the strain.

"They...don't trust us?"

There was an unconcealable sense of loss in her voice, and her long golden hair seemed to have lost its former luster in the sunset.

Zhou Yuan patted her shoulder gently, a hint of appreciation flashing in his violet eyes:

"Knowing how to relocate decisively in the face of unknown threats, having this vigilance..."

His eyes followed the figure in the distance that gradually disappeared into the dense forest.

"No wonder they have survived in this cruel world."

Melyuchina's long silver hair fluttered in the wind, and her golden vertical pupils watched all this thoughtfully.

Ba Wanxi gently hugged Jian's arm, her eyes full of worry.

"This is the Wing Clan. Among all the fairy races, they are the ones that are even relatively nice to humans."

Zhou Yuan brought Jian to the edge of the Wing Clan's territory, which was the best observation point found based on the information provided by the small map.
