Capítulo 444: Chapter 257: I’m Back_2

“I wonder if Qie Ye will become a bit more mature the next time I come over.”

Jiang Xuan mumbled a sentence, but he didn’t stop at the Red Ant Tribe either.

Tang Yuan left the territory of the Red Ant Tribe and continued flying forward.

Three days later, they flew near the Crocodile Tribe.

Tang Yuan similarly didn’t land at the Crocodile Tribe, instead continuing to fly towards the direction of the Black Water Swamp.

In the residential area of the Crocodile Tribe, Shi Ya, who was harvesting Fish Scale Grass, looked up and happened to see Tang Yuan flying past in the distance, excitedly pointing at it and shouting:

“Sister, look quickly, it’s that purple Fierce Bird.”

Qing Ye, who was also harvesting Fish Scale Grass, immediately looked up, following Shi Ya’s finger, and saw Tang Yuan’s massive figure swiftly flying away over the Crocodile Tribe.

“Why doesn’t he come down to see me…”

Qing Ye unconsciously bit her lip, her eyes somewhat aggrieved, her voice so low it was barely audible.

But her character was very strong-willed, and after Tang Yuan’s figure disappeared over the horizon, she bent down again, lowered her head, and continued harvesting Fish Scale Grass.

As if that person, that bird, had never appeared.

…

On the other side, Jiang Xuan was eager to return, not wanting to linger much on the road, so he directly bypassed the Crocodile Tribe.

Riding on Tang Yuan, he flew all the way, much faster than those crocodiles traveling by water.

A few hours later, Jiang Xuan arrived again at the Black Water Swamp and found that Wetland Forest.

He did not enter the forest, but rolled up his sleeves and said to the Divine Vine, “Vine God, can you let that giant frog come out directly?”

The Divine Vine wrapped around Jiang Xuan’s arm radiated a green divine light.

In the river channel of the Wetland Forest, the giant frog, which was hunting, suddenly shivered, and a mysterious vibration emanated from where its heart was.

“Ribbit…”

The giant frog, receiving the instruction from the Divine Vine, immediately let out a loud croak, then left the river channel, hopping towards the direction where Jiang Xuan was.

A moment later, the giant frog hopped out of the Wetland Forest and arrived in front of Jiang Xuan.

“According to our previous agreement, come back with me to the Vine Tribe, and I’ll make you the Guardian God of the Frog Tribe. Now, it’s time to set off.”

After Jiang Xuan finished speaking, he quickly rode Tang Yuan to start the return journey.

The giant frog nodded, then dove into the water, following Tang Yuan’s path, swimming swiftly.

On the way there, Jiang Xuan had traveled along the river, making the return trip with the giant frog convenient as well.

So it was that Tang Yuan flew in the sky, while the giant frog followed in the river channel; one man, one bird, and one frog swiftly traveled upstream towards the Vine Tribe.

…

In the sky, Jiang Xuan sat on Tang Yuan’s back, gazing at the mountains and rivers passing below, feeling a completely different mood from when he had come.

When he came, where the road led to, what tribes would be encountered, what people, what events—everything was unknown.

Even though it was fresh and exciting, his heart was filled with anxiety and restlessness, unable to find peace for even a moment.

On the return journey, he already knew the path he should take, which tribes he would encounter, what people he might meet, and he could imagine it all.

Therefore, during the return trip, he felt relatively relaxed.

“I wonder if the snow has melted when I get back…”

Looking towards the northwest, Jiang Xuan suddenly felt an intense longing, eagerly wanting to return to the Vine Tribe, to the familiar place he could call home.

Tang Yuan had a very good memory, or one could say birds had a strong ability to navigate, since despite having flown the route only once, on the return trip, there were almost no deviations.

They flew over one mountain and river after another, passed the tribes they had encountered on the way there.

However, Jiang Xuan did not stop at any of these tribes.

When passing the Red Ant Tribe, he gazed at the large ant nest-like buildings, and the huge tortoise shell in the center of the buildings, recalling that rebellious youth Qie Ye.

“I wonder if Qie Ye will become a bit more mature the next time I come over.”

Jiang Xuan mumbled a sentence, but he didn’t stop at the Red Ant Tribe either.

Tang Yuan left the territory of the Red Ant Tribe and continued flying forward.

Three days later, they flew near the Crocodile Tribe.

Tang Yuan similarly didn’t land at the Crocodile Tribe, instead continuing to fly towards the direction of the Black Water Swamp.
