“So that's how a deer sounds like.” Heroine Wu watched the little deer gradually disappearing into the forest with some reluctance. She smacked her lips; after eating porridge for several days except this morning, tears almost welled up at the corners of her mouth.
However, there were certain etiquettes in the jianghu, especially for those from prestigious sects.

That would be unethical.
