Chapter 422 Not an Outsider

"Don't...don't kill me, don't kill me!"

There came a panicked response from the shadows.

Soon, a short figure stepped out from the shadows with his hands raised.

Su Shixia narrowed her eyes and looked carefully, a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes.

"It's actually a child?"

Although the man was wrapped in a thick fur coat, the hat on his head almost covered his entire face, leaving only his mouth, nose and eyes exposed.

But from her walking posture and voice, Su Shixia could easily recognize that she seemed to be a girl of not too old.

Feng Qiyu frowned when he discovered that the person who came out was just a little girl.

Although he was confused, he did not relax his vigilance and alertness just because the other party was a little girl, and he kept the sword in his hand tightly grasped.

If the girl dared to move in the slightest, he would attack her without hesitation.

"In the tribe, even children know that they must have a companion when they go to the glacier belt for activities."

Feng Qiyu asked coldly: "What's wrong with you? Why are you here alone? Where are your people? You come here alone and act so sneakily, what do you want to do?"

"I……"

The girl was obviously afraid of Feng Qi Yu, fearing that Feng Qi Yu would attack her, so she kept her hands raised high.

But after hearing Feng Qiyu's question, she turned her head away and refused to look at Feng Qiyu directly.

"I...I am from the Lanyan tribe."

The girl's voice was very low and hoarse, and seemed to have a slight tremor.

Su Shixia keenly sensed that something was wrong.

Before she could think about it, Feng Qiyu followed up with further questions.

"I know the people of the Lanyan tribe. Your young chief, Sandu, once drank with me. I heard him say that in their tribe, the entry and exit of tribal members are strictly managed."

"Sandu will not allow a child like you to sneak out alone. What on earth are you..."

"there is none left!"

Feng Qiyu was interrupted by the girl's sharp voice before he could finish his words.

Feng Qiyu was stunned. Before she could react to what she meant, the girl had already turned around and stared at Feng Qiyu with a pair of red eyes soaked by tears. She almost gritted her teeth and said:

"If you are really my brother's friend and a member of our Northern Frontier, then how could you not know that my brother died half a month ago!"

"Now that my brother is gone, most of the people in the Lanyan tribe have been killed or injured. The remaining people have all gone to other tribes. Now... I am the only one left in the entire Lanyan tribe!"

Feng Qiyu and Su Shixia were both shocked by what the girl said.

Lian Qiao, Fu Hu and others' faces suddenly changed when they heard this.

"How is it possible? Why haven't we heard of it..."

"This news has already spread throughout the entire Northern Frontier. How could you not know about it? Unless you are not from the Northern Frontier..."

The girl was halfway through her words when she suddenly realized something was wrong.

She didn't even care that Feng Qiyu was still holding a sword in his hand. She immediately retreated vigilantly and hid back in the shadow of the dark.

He just stared at them with a pair of hostile eyes.

"You... are outsiders?! Northern Frontier is a holy land of ice and snow protected by the goddess. How did you sneak in?!" "We are not outsiders."

People in northern Xinjiang naturally reject outsiders of unknown origin.

Looking at the girl's reaction, Feng Qiyu had basically confirmed that she had no ulterior motives, and guessed that what she had said before should be true.

In order to make the girl put down her hostility, he took the lead in putting away his sword and walked slowly towards the girl.

"I just left Northern Xinjiang for a while, so I'm not too clear about what happened in Northern Xinjiang during this period."

Seeing that the girl was full of disbelief, when he approached her, she immediately hid further away, and even pulled out a dagger from her boots, and arched her body like a frightened animal.

Feng Qiyu did not continue to provoke her. He wisely stopped immediately and spoke to her from a distance not too far from her.

"Think about it, if I was really a pure outsider, how could I tell you your brother's name right after you told me you were from the Lanyan tribe?"

"Humph! Outsiders are all insidious and treacherous. Maybe you have already learned about our tribe's news!"

The girl was full of hostility and refused to listen to Feng Qiyu's explanation.

Lian Qiao and Fu Hu were both from northern Xinjiang, so they didn't feel there was anything wrong when they heard the girl say that.

But as real "outsiders", Su Shixia and Xiao Qinzhan's expressions became subtle after hearing the girl's words.

"Mother, we are from outside the Northern Frontier. Are we... the 'outsiders' she mentioned?"

Little Qin Zhan gently shook Su Shixia's hand.

In order not to attract the little girl's attention, he took Su Shixia's hand and motioned Su Shixia to squat down.

He leaned close to Su Shixia's ear and lowered his voice, "We obviously haven't done anything bad, why does she hate us just because we're not from Northern Frontier?"

"Do you think you are treacherous?"

Su Shixia also lowered her voice and leaned close to little Qin Zhan's ear and asked in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, little Qin Zhan immediately shook his little head like a rattle, as if he was afraid of being misunderstood.

"I am a good person!"

Hearing Xiao Qinzhan giving himself the "good guy card", Su Shixia's smile deepened.

She raised her hand and rubbed Qin Zhan's head through his hat, smiling and comforting him: "Since you think you are not that kind of person, there is no need to 'take it for granted' just because of a casual remark she made."

"And, if my guess is correct, the 'outsiders' she mentioned should be people who had no connection with the Northern Frontier before, but we are not like that."

Little Qin Zhan was unable to follow Su Shixia's thoughts for a moment. He just looked at her curiously with his big eyes, waiting for her answer.

Su Shixia whispered in his ear, "Have you forgotten? Didn't your second uncle tell you before? Your grandmother has Northern Frontier bloodline."

"Then, you and I both have some Northern Frontier blood flowing in our veins. So, we and the Northern Frontier people are 'our own people', not 'outsiders'."

"Yeah!"

After Su Shixia’s reminder.

Little Qin Zhan suddenly "suddenly understood", his chin raised up, looking very proud.

"I am also a bit of a Northern Frontier person! When she scolds outsiders, she is not scolding me!"

While the mother and daughter were whispering to each other, Feng Qiyu finally thought of a way to make the girl relax her guard against him.

"You said you were Sandu's sister. I've heard Sandu mention you before. Your name is Sang Yi, right?"
