Chapter 1545 - Sacred Pond
Ariel stood completely at a loss as she listened to the chieftain and the grand elders speak. She couldn't understand a single word of their exchange.
"Chieftain, have you made your decision?" another grand elder asked, because this was no small matter.
"Do we have other choices?" the chieftain asked with a bitter smile. She understood what it meant, yet she couldn't watch Liu Wuxie die in front of her. The Black God still rampaged through his soul sea, and at best, he could only hold on for another three days.
Without the Heavenly Dao Book's protection, he would've died on the spot and never lasted until now.
At this moment, the Heavenly Dao Book looked like a tiny sprout gripping Liu Wuxie's primordial spirit, refusing to let it extinguish. Once Liu Wuxie's primordial spirit dimmed completely, death would claim him.
"Ariel, come here," the chieftain said, waving at her to come closer and gently caressing her head.
"Mother, what are you talking about?" Ariel asked, tilting her head.
"Ariel, do you want to save him?" the chieftain asked.
"He traveled a long distance to return the Earth-Binding Chains in person; he's the heir of our ancestor, and he saved our Spirit Clan today. By all reason, we should save him regardless of the cost," Ariel said.
"You're right. We must save him at any cost," the chieftain replied with a nod. Ariel spoke the truth, and the Spirit Clan could not act like ingrates.
"What if saving him requires a sacrifice from you? Will you still be willing?" the chieftain asked, pain flashing across her face.
Ariel was her only child, and no parent would willingly trade their child's life for a stranger.
