Heart Cultivation 317 Jen Has Returned

The lower region was as usual dark with the six months night, the half beasts were curious because human tribe did not attack in the first few days, usually they would sneak attack in the first and or second day.

There was also some half beasts who were looking at the certain tent where the human was living with sambar, it was strange that sambar was appearing every now and then but Human did not come out of the tent.

A day ago when the separate chamber was completed, the sambar was informed to tell the human, sambar excused saying that human was in seclusion and trying to recuperate her injuries.

They believed the words of sambar and kept quiet.

If Jen has spoken about the hunter, Xuan Rong must have sent her somewhere else but she don't want to increase his worry, it would distract and divide his attention and Jen least wish to happen this, her grandfather should remain focused so that he could stand steel in front of his enemies.

Today, fox beast was bent on to disclose this matter, it was sure that human has left and sambar was trying to earn some time, it was not clear why sambar was bent on to betray its race.

It must have sensed her presence if she was still there, half beasts has this quality of the beasts but fox could not sense it that means sambar was lying to others.

"My tent is the closest and I could not sense her presence from the last day onward, we have to disclose this matter and tell others that female sambar is betraying us," the fox beast met the wolves gang and related.

"How can you be so sure?" the wolf was not clouded head, it was willing to lend help and throw out this human but it was not reckless to start a fuss without prof.

"If the human was recuperating, there should be some essence fluctuation in the surrounding since human is a legend," the fox beast gave a reason and indeed it can be considered strange.

The wolves heard and they were forced to think about the possibility, there was another reason to believe this prof, the human tribe was silent and it brought the curiosity to its peak, the wolf gang stood up and marched toward the Bivouac of the leader.

There were two eyes blinking at the right side of the tent and two at the left, two tigress were standing to protect the door of the Bivouac.

"We are looking for the leader," the wolf told the purpose of their arrival.

The leader heard the commotion and came out to listen them.

"What brought you all here?" the lion half beast asked in his specific authoritative tone.

"We wanted our leader to make the safety of the tribe possible in all situations," a wolf spoke.

"I am doing my best, and the safety of the tribe meant the safety of half beasts, do you think I would slack it?" the lion half beast sounded displeased.

"If you really care the safety of the tribe how can you shelter a spy of human tribe?" the wolf also increased the pitch of tone, it made the conversation tense and half beasts came out of their tents to know what was going on.

"Who is that spy?" the lion half beast knew the gesture of the wolf still he asked.

"That girl who after collecting information ran back to her tribe," the wolf spoke confident.

"The girl does not belong to human tribe, she is only a rapscallion who inadvertently travelled and reached here," the lion half beast explained.

"If you are speaking truth then we want to see her here right at this moment, or we are going to check the tent of the sambar without informing both," the wolf was fed up with the stupidity of the leader to believe the human.

The beasts were also curious, they did not saw the human from previous few days.

"If you are insisting then sure," the half beast lion agreed and they started walking toward the direction where sambar has its tent.

The female sambar who was listening this commotion got worried, Jen has not returned and these beasts were curious, if they did not find her in the tent then it will also be blamed for betraying the tribe.

She thought to come out of the tent and stand in front so that no half beast could enter the tent, it was about to hide the diction which was still laying on the ground, before it could touch, the diction started to emit the light, the female sambar who was ready to face death got shocked, was human coming back at this crucial moment? It asked to itself.

The sambar immediately came out of the tent and completely shut with curtains to hide the glow.

The wolves gang saw the sambar coming out of the tent and snickered, "Where you are going to run?"

"I am going nowhere, you tell me what brought you here?" the sambar knew why they were coming here, it has seen the fox lurking around the tent, everyone was curious so the wolves were no exception only leader believed her excuse the human was in seclusion.

"So you have guts too?" the wolf was not expecting this kind of answer.

"I don't want to continue this useless conversation," the sambar can allow if this wolf wanted a wits war but a dogfight was not her way.

"Then bring out human, we wanted to ask her few questions," the wolf ordered as if he was the leader.

Jen returned back and could hear what was happening outside, she stood up and came with the nightlight ball in her hand, "Who is ignorant here that does not know the meaning of seclusion?" she spoke displeased.

The half beasts who gathered around the tent saw the girl coming out of it, and she seemed angry at what was going around the tent especially when she was in her seclusion, it must have displeased her.

"You are still here?" the wolf asked with disbelieve.

"What do you think, where I should be?" Jen spoke while looking at the leader.

The leader came in his senses, for a moment he also thought that perhaps human was ally of the human tribe.

"I…" the wolf staggered back, he looked at the fox and glared.

"I was only worried since you were injured severely, do you need anything or some herb?" the wolf excused.

"Enough of this nonsense, everyone go back now," the leader ordered and looked toward the girl.

The crowd dispersed and the leader also left, somehow he could feel the changes.

Jen has completely recovered, when Jen came out of the tent on right time, the female sambar heaved a sigh of relief.

They went back in the tent after looking around that no one was there anymore.

"Human, I can't believe, your deep injuries healed in just few days?" the female sambar has quite knowledge about the human cultivation and the way body heals after going through severe wounds.

"My grandfather is experienced so he did his best to heal my wounds," Jen looked toward the roof of the tent and gestured, "These creatures will live around and listen to my orders, do you want them to bring woods from the forest?" Jen spoke.

The Sleuth Custodians heard and coughed up smoke, they would have coughed up blood if they have it.

To think that new master wanted them to bring woods from the forest, why they were still alive, who they were? The Sleuth Custodians, that even death cannot harm them, this new master was surely disregarding their high profile records.

The female sambar looked up and got little terrified, "What are these ugly creatures?" she asked with fear.

The Sleuth Custodians almost fell to the ground, they were never humiliated this much before, their previous master never said that they were ugly, they scrutinized the half beast sambar and wanted to scold but drank the hot cup and shut their mouths.

"They are very obedient and caring, if you wanted them to fan air for you, they would do without getting tired," Jen explained more.

She liked the way female sambar was looking at these creatures.

"I might not be disturbing them for such petty work," the female spoke as if it has decided on something.

The sleuth custodians stood straight with the raised up necks, 'finally there was someone who could understand their worth,' they nodded in approval.

"I will ask them to keep the flies away from the stocked food," after much deliberation the female decided upon this.

They heard and almost lost their wits, to think they were not just disregarded, they were being treated as the pettiest.

They could not go back because the previous master has already given them responsibility to protect grandchild.
