Chapter 861: Waiting

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

She had waited for so long, but Su Xiaoling had not returned. She was afraid. She recalled many things from the past and could not help but curse. Su Xiaoling happened to return at this time.

She heard her.

Wei Ling was not stupid. She could feel Su Xiaoling’s disgust for her, so she tactfully stopped talking. She was afraid that if she said a few more words, Su Xiaoling would really leave her behind.

Su Xiaoling was softening the vines.

After she was done, she began to use the vines to pass through Wei Ling’s armpits.

Wei Ling was afraid and puzzled. “Su Xiaoling, what are you doing?”

Su Xiaoling didn’t want to say a word to Wei Ling.

Wei Ling did not dare to move. When Su Xiaoling tried to carry her, she hugged Su Xiaolu tightly.

Su Xiaoling frowned and said coldly, “Let go.”

Wei Ling refused. In the next moment, her arm hurt. She exclaimed in disbelief, “Su Xiaoling! How dare you, how dare you

Su Xiaoling used the silver needle from before to prick her.

Su Xiaoling didn’t care about Wei Ling’s anger. She didn’t want to talk to Wei Ling. If Wei Ling didn’t listen to her, she definitely wouldn’t show mercy.

When they reached the tree, Su Xiaoling began to climb it.

Wei Ling was even more afraid. “Are we going to climb up the tree?”

Su Xiaoling ignored her. It was even harder to climb a tree with someone on her back.

It was not easy for her to climb up, but she slid down because Wei Ling was holding her neck too tightly.

It was already completely dark. Wei Ling was extremely afraid. At least Su Xiaoling’s body was warm. This was her straw to clutch at. She was unwilling to let go.

Once again, she was forced to slide down because she didn’t have enough air.

Su Xiaoling panted. Wei Ling hugged her tightly. She was extremely afraid. She said nervously, “Su Xiaoling, climb up quickly. I heard wolves howling.” It was too dangerous to spend the night in the mountains.

Su Xiaoling slid down again and again. Wei Ling was extremely anxious. She wanted to flare up, but she held back.

The next moment, there was another pain in her hand. Wei Ling screamed, “Su

Xiaoling, what are you doing? Why did you prick me again?”

Su Xiaoling’s breathing became more stable. She said coldly, “Try strangling me again. If we slide down again, I’ll throw you under the tree.”

Su Xiaoling’s coldness made Wei Ling afraid. She had already let go of her hand. She wanted to hug her again, but in the end, she didn’t dare.

She was afraid that Su Xiaoling would abandon her.

Su Xiaoling took a few deep breaths before climbing again.

Wei Ling didn’t strangle her this time. She felt much better and finally reached the branch.

She eased her breath and continued to climb.

Every time Wei Ling thought that she had stopped, she continued to go up.

Wei Ling felt that they were already very high up. She asked weakly, “Isn’t this high enough?”

“It’s not enough. At this height, the wolves will climb up. I don’t know what’s in the mountains.”

Su Xiaoling felt Wei Ling trembling and said angrily.

Wei Ling didn’t dare to ask again. The higher it was, the stronger the wind.

It was so cold.

Su Xiaoling chose a stable and solid three-pronged opening before stopping. She was about to untie the vines when Wei Ling asked with a trembling voice,

“Su Xiaoling, what are you doing?”

“Sleep. It’s fine as long as you don’t move around. I’ll tie you to a tree. If you move around and fall down at night, even if you’re not dead, I won’t come down to save you.”

Su Xiaoling said coldly.

Wei Ling choked for a moment. She said stiffly, “Okay.”

Wei Ling didn’t dare to move.

Su Xiaoling fixed her up and walked towards the entrance. Then, she sat down and fixed herself with vines. She took out a fruit from her pocket and ate it. Wei Ling heard her. She opened her mouth a few times but didn’t say anything.

Su Xiaoling had no intention of giving it to her.

Wei Ling didn’t feel good. After all, she was her mother-in-law. How could Su Xiaoling be like this?

Wei Ling was also hungry. As she listened to Su Xiaoling eat one after another, she could only see a little of Su Xiaoling’s actions in the dark night. In the end, she couldn’t help but say, “Su Xiaoling, I’m hungry too. You have food. How can you not give it to me? After all, I’m still your mother-in-law.”

r-lull.

Su Xiaoling sneered. She asked mockingly, “I’ve been looking for a place to stay for so long. Why didn’t Mother pick up the wild fruits beside her? Since Mother had the strength to strangle me and curse, I thought Mother wouldn’t be hungry.”

Wei Ling was furious. She was about to speak when Su Xiaoling’s next words made her feel cold from head to toe.

“Mother, ask yourself, if the situation was reversed and Mother could move freely and I was seriously injured, would Mother save me?” Su Xiaoling asked coldly and it immediately fell silent.

Of course, Su Xiaoling didn’t mind. She continued eating.

She did not pick up many fruits and needed to eat some to have strength.

When the weather was cold, they often ate divine medicine and tried their best to eat some food so that their bodies could withstand it.

Wei Ling wanted to eat, but as long as she was unwilling, there were plenty of ways.

After Su Xiaoling said that, Wei Ling fell silent because if she were in Su Xiaoling’s shoes, she would definitely not care about her.

Su Xiaoling quietly finished the fruits and closed her eyes to rest.

Of course, she wasn’t really asleep. She cultivated.

Wei Ling couldn’t cultivate and didn’t fall asleep. She was afraid and hungry.

She had lived a luxurious life for decades and had never been so down and out.

She was terrified and on tenterhooks.

At night, ferocious beasts appeared.

They were high in the trees, but every now and then there was movement under them.

It was not until dawn that Wei Ling fell asleep.

When a ray of sunlight shone on her body, Wei Ling woke up and looked at Su Xiaoling.

Su Xiaoling’s expression was cold. “Are you willing to stay on this tree or below? I still have to go further and try to find a suitable place to stay.”

Wei Ling immediately asked, “Didn’t you say that we can’t walk around?”

Did she really want to find a suitable place to stay? Could it be that she wanted to take the opportunity not to come back and abandon her?

Wei Ling stared fixedly at Su Xiaoling’s face.

“There’s no foothold here. Do you want to stay in the trees every day? The weather has been good for the past two days. What if it rains tomorrow? The trees in the mountains often attract lightning strikes. If you’re unlucky and get hit, how will you survive?”

Su Xiaoling’s expression was cold, so cold that Wei Ling felt uneasy.

Su Xiaoling had already begun to move her limbs. She meant that if Wei Ling refused to go down, she would go down.

Wei Ling looked under the tree. Because the branches were blocking her, she couldn’t see the bottom. If she stayed on the tree, she wouldn’t be able to see anything. She said in fear, “I want to go down too.”

Wei Ling was worried that Su Xiaoling wouldn’t bring her along, but she was worried for nothing. Su Xiaoling just didn’t treat her well.

After putting Wei Ling down, Su Xiaoling sat on the ground and panted.

Wei Ling was hungry, but she didn’t dare to say it.

Su Xiaoling didn’t care if she was evil or not. She got up after resting enough.

Wei Ling wanted to say something, but she was so embarrassed that it was difficult for her to speak. However, when she saw Su Xiaoling leave without looking back, her back quickly disappeared. Wei Ling shouted, “Su Xiaoling, I’ll wait for you.. You have to come back quickly—
