“Father is here?”

Su Qingluo’s heart leapt with joy as she took out a small handful of dried sweet potato from her storage ring to reward Little Kingfisher.

“Yeah, he’s very worried about you.”

Little Kingfisher happily ate the dried sweet potato: “He kept mumbling about wanting to come to the other side of the river to find you guys.”

A warm current surged through Su Qingluo’s heart: “Good thing he didn’t come. It’s hard to see clearly in the dark, so he would have gotten lost if he did.”

“The rain is about to stop.”

Little Kingfisher picked up a piece of dried sweet potato, tilted its head back and swallowed it, suddenly chiming in with a smile.

“Really? How do you know?”

Su Qingluo’s eyes brightened instantly.

“Birds are flying in from the south, saying that the strong wind blew away the rain clouds in the Qilian Mountain Range last night, and the rain has stopped to the south.”

Little Kingfisher spoke with certainty: “I reckon today our side has strong wind as well, so after blowing all night, it should be able to blow the clouds away.”

“That would be great. If it keeps raining, I’m afraid there will be a landslide.”

Su Qingluo worried: “If the mountain road is blocked and transportation is inconvenient, the relief supplies from the outside can’t be transported in, and the disaster victims will suffer.”

“Master, there’s some bad news I haven’t had the chance to tell you.”

Little Kingfisher paused while eating the dried sweet potato: “The flood has destroyed the forest, and the mountain has already had a landslide. The mountain road leading to Furong Town is blocked by giant rocks rolling down from the mountain, and horses and carts can’t get through.”

“Really?”

Su Qingluo was extremely annoyed: “What should we do now? The worst case scenario we feared has come.”

“Isn’t there a female official in the Imperial Residence?”

Little Kingfisher did not care: “When the sky falls, there will be tall people to hold it up. We ordinary folks just need to keep our distance and watch.”

“You make it sound easy.”

Su Qingluo laughed in exasperation: “Both female officials are my masters. It’s not right for a student to just watch while their masters suffer.”

“Besides, both of my masters are very kind, especially Female Official Xu Yanru. I always feel that she has a special bond with me, as if she’s deliberately hiding something from me.”

“Hehe, she is probably Xu Ruyun’s sister, the one you once saved in Mingshui County. They look similar.”

Little Kingfisher’s small eyes were crafty, having noticed that Xu Yanru was kind and resembled someone Su Qingluo had met before.

Now that her master had brought it up, it followed the topic and shared its guess.

“Is that all there is to it?”

Su Qingluo also had a feeling, but she couldn’t quite figure everything out.

Of course, with her current thoughts, she could never imagine that the Imperial Court had already uncovered her true identity.

It was because Xu Ruyun was worried about her background and didn’t want the Empress to be suspicious, so she suppressed this matter and didn’t report it to the Empress.

Xu Yanru was Xu Ruyun’s real sister. The two sisters shared a deep bond, and Su Qingluo was Xu Ruyun’s lifesaver.

Both in emotion and reason, Xu Yanru would look after Su Qingluo.

On the matter of her secret identity, the two sisters also shared the same understanding and temporarily kept it hidden for her.

“Anyway, if Master wants to help, let’s help.”

Little Kingfisher was not worried at all, and continued eating dried sweet potato with a smile.

“We’re at the riverbank.”

Wang Meng couldn’t hear the conversation between the girl and the bird. He held the Night Pearl to light the way, and upon seeing the riverbank just ahead, he exhaled in relief, revealing an uncontrollable delight.

“Are Father and the others still rescuing people?”

Su Qingluo’s heart also leapt with joy as she looked in the direction of the sound.

“Yes!”

Little Kingfisher flew high, circling above the raft, its bright little eyes accurately capturing the sight of the ten-thousand-year-old turtle.

It could clearly see the two exhausted figures on the turtle’s shell.

Su Qingluo sighed in her heart: “Father and the others must be tired too after a whole day of work. Staying up all night keeping watch, they may not be able to hold on much longer.”
