Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 374

The audience turned completely silent when this particular weasel showed up.

Everyone held their breath as they stared at the unusual weasel. They didn't dare shout, let alone type anything.

The Weasel Deity walked until he was two yards away from the group. Then, he stopped in his tracks. After casting a glance at the group, he looked at the six weasels Kai was holding on a leash.

When the well-behaved weasels saw the Weasel Deity appearing, they instantly started squirming in anxiety. They stared pitifully at the Weasel Deity, wishing to break free from the leash. However, they were wary of Kai, so they didn't dare do anything.

When Shannon noticed that, she bent over and undid the rope that was binding the six weasels.

The freed weasels glanced at Kai. Realizing that he didn't intend to recapture them, they instantly dashed behind the Weasel Deity, wagging their tails pitifully.

When the Weasel Deity saw Shannon's obviously friendly gesture, the ferocious look in his eyes subsided a little. However, he was still wary of her.

Shannon decisively raised her hands and greeted him with a respectful salute.

"We do not intend to offend you. We held the weasels back last night so that they could guide us to you. The villagers would like to talk to you."

The Weasel Deity looked at Shannon and then at the young man standing next to her. After hesitating for a moment, he returned the salute.

Behind them, the villagers had astonished looks on their faces when they saw a weasel saluting. In addition to shock, one of them also had a confused look flashing across their face. Apparently, this wasn't the first time they saw a saluting weasel.

As for the others, when they saw the Weasel Deity returning the salute, their anxiety was calmed a little.

The Weasel Deity was willing to return the salute, which meant that he was willing to listen to reason.

This was good news.

However, Shannon knew very well that the Weasel Deity was being polite wholly because of Kai.

Obviously, he didn't want to get into any conflict with Kai.

By the looks of it, getting Kai to come along had been the right decision.

Shannon gestured for the chief to step forward. The chief was representing the whole village, so despite his immense fear of the Weasel Deity, he shakily came forward.

He mimicked Shannon's movements and started off by greeting the Weasel Deity with a respectful salute.

"Was there a misunderstanding?"

"We've seen some weasels in the village in the past, but no one has ever hurt or killed them. We've always behaved ourselves."

Noticing that the Weasel Deity had put on a slightly irritated expression because of the noise, the chief hastily lifted his hand to gesture for everyone to stop talking. Then, he looked at the Weasel Deity and asked a question respectfully.

"O Deity, has there perhaps been a misunderstanding?"

The Weasel Deity stared at the villagers. It didn't speak up right away.

On the contrary, Kai was a little annoyed. "If there's something you want to say, spit it out already! Quit dilly-dallying!"

When the villagers and the crew heard Kai's words, they almost lost their minds in fear. They instinctively tried to stop Kai from talking.

However, when the Weasel Deity heard Kai's prodding, a look of obvious annoyance flashed across his eyes. But strangely enough, he didn't act out.

He seemed to be doing his best to suppress his anger.
