Chapter 567: The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor
Chapter 567: Yan Yan Lies (1)
While treating Mo Qingze’s wounds, Mo Yan learned from Han Zhiyun and the others about the circumstances leading to her father’s injury.
It turned out that Mo Qingze and Master Liu had been unable to find any game and decided to team up to search another less frequented mountain for prey. They planned to hunt a wild chicken or rabbit to avoid returning empty-handed. However, before they could find any game, more people arrived in the area.
With more people around, the wildlife scattered, inadvertently disturbing the already injured golden beast. Yes, the golden beast was wounded before it attacked the humans.
The blood on the golden beast was still fresh, indicating that the injury had been recently sustained. It was likely that the beast had been defeated in a fight with another predator and had fled to the outskirts of Yuhua Mountain. In a bad mood from its defeat and startled by the human presence, the beast, thinking its safety was threatened, took the initiative to attack Mo Qingze and the others.
The golden beast first attacked Master Lu’s friend. Mo Qingze, who was standing nearby, reacted quickly, pushing the friend to the ground, only to be bitten by the golden beast himself.
“If it weren’t for me, Master Mo wouldn’t have been injured. My life was saved by Master Mo. I’ll do anything to repay this debt of gratitude!” The man who was saved, unharmed, looked gratefully at the unconscious Mo Qingze and spoke to Mo Yan with a guilt-ridden expression.
Mo Yan, though distressed by her father’s suffering, did not want to blame an innocent person. She shook her head and replied calmly, “My father helped you out of righteousness. He would have done the same for anyone else. Don’t blame yourself; it was an accident, and it’s not your fault!”
The man, still agitated, insisted, “No, it’s my fault. If I hadn’t brought others here to hunt, we wouldn’t have angered the beast. It wouldn’t have attacked, and Master Mo wouldn’t have been harmed. It’s all my fault!”
Mo Yan, focusing entirely on her father, was not in the mood to argue about right or wrong. Seeing the man’s persistent self-blame, she responded helplessly, “If you really feel guilty, help carry my father down the mountain later. If my father recovers and wants to hold you accountable, you can make amends then.”

When the man tried to say more, Master Lu stepped in to stop him, “Right now, it’s crucial to tend to Master Mo. We can discuss other matters later.”
The others also persuaded him, and the man finally suppressed his guilt and ceased his apologies.
Everyone knew Mo Qingze’s character; since he was willing to sacrifice himself for others, he wouldn’t pursue blame against others. Moreover, such incidents were undesirable for everyone involved. If blame were to be assigned, it would be for their unfortunate encounter with the formidable golden beast.
Seeing Mo Yan so composed while treating her father’s bloody wounds, with only concern and no fear in her eyes, Han Zhiyun felt a sense of admiration. Yet, he looked over at the fierce battle between the four beasts with deep worry.
Once Mo Yan had treated her father’s wounds and ensured they wouldn’t bleed further, she sighed with relief. She then handed the remaining spiritual spring water and powdered medicine to the other lightly injured people before sitting down on the ground, letting the beads of sweat drip down her face.
Han Zhiyun said to Mo Yan, “Yan girl, while the golden beast is occupied, we should quickly head down the mountain. Otherwise, if it breaks free from Little Flower and the others, we’ll be in danger.”
Mo Yan, observing the three beasts struggling against the golden beast, shook her head and replied, “Uncle Han, you take my father down the mountain to find a doctor. I need to stay here and wait for Xiao Hua.”
