Chapter 552: Chapter 149 Crisis Arrival【Two in One】_3 Chapter 552: Chapter 149 Crisis Arrival【Two in One】_3 Oh man…

I only told him to rest, didn’t say anything about you two needing to rest as well. At least leave one to keep me company, for God’s sake, I’m bored.

But they’ve already entered the tent. Should I stick my head in and drag one of them out?

They’re not my pets.

That’s not how it works at all!

“It’s all your fault!”

Dong Xiaoyan pointed at the Ice Phoenix egg.

The Ice Phoenix egg, seemingly in response, gave a small shake.

Although its defects have been repaired, the embryo replenished, and its foundation strengthened, it would still take quite some time before it could properly hatch.

“Sigh!”

Dong Xiaoyan collapsed onto the shafts of the cart in a desolate manner. She carefully placed a dozen or so top-grade spiritual crystals under the Ice Phoenix egg, using up all she had without hesitation.

She then just laid back, gazing skyward at the stars listlessly.

At this moment, countless spiritual energies were being attracted in mid-air. Massive amounts of moonlight were softened into layers of luminous veils that gently fused into the eggshell.

A huge amount of spiritual energy was also flowing from the top-grade spiritual crystals into the Ice Phoenix egg.

“Bing’er, you must come out quickly.”

Dong Xiaoyan sincerely prayed with all her heart.

…

As Feng Yin laid in his tent, the soft bedding beneath him, and the fragrance in the air, all filled him with a sense of tranquillity.

It wasn’t the aroma of incense, nor was it a bouquet of flowers, but…

Feng Yin took two deep breaths, feeling oddly exhilarated.

Oh my… this is the first time in his two lives that he had slept in a girl’s bed…

“Damn, no wonder all the single dogs want to find a wife… This feeling is absolutely wonderful…”

Basked in bliss, Feng Yin laid in his cozy bedding, his mind drifting into daydreams, suddenly understanding why so many single men yearned for companionship, “This… this scent really gets you…”

With his mind full of random thoughts, he slowly drifted off to sleep, and for the first time in a while, he had a deep and peaceful sleep.

He slept soundly till daybreak.

In contrast, Dong Xiaoyan had been wide awake all night.

Sitting with her knees pulled up to her chest, she stared intently at the Ice Phoenix egg in front of her, faint sounds of snoring coming from the tent behind her.

A profound feeling of satisfaction welled up within her.

Her heart was filled with an inexplicable sense of peace and joy. A thought crossed her mind: if life could always be this calm, if time could freeze at this moment, she would gladly accept, even yearn for it.

…

The morning breeze swept across the land.

Feng Yin still drove the carriage, accompanied by Dong Xiaoyan, they journeyed through the dense jungle. Bandits were as rampant as ever, as foolish as ever, determined to court death. As a result, digging their graves and dispatching them had become second nature to Feng and Dong.

Remarkably, neither of them found this tedious.

Instead, they seemed to enjoy the tranquility of the journey.

Apparently, they were both acknowledging, even basking in each other’s presence.

Wishing this journey could last forever.

However, when they turned a corner, all the bandits seemed to have disappeared, and the quiet was surprisingly peaceful.

Feng Yin had a feeling that something was off.

There were so many bandits in the world trying to get rich quick from Dong Xiaoyan; those astute or intelligent had long given up.

However, the world beyond their comprehension was always full of unsuspecting people infatuated with unfounded fantasies, sick with a delusion of being the main character of their own stories.

Therefore, Feng Yin was able to believe that this cycle of killing and burying would continue all the way to Great Qin.

Because Dong Xiaoyan’s wealth, which she carried around in her carriage, was too tempting, almost underrated.

However, this sudden tranquillity had given Feng Yin an ominous feeling.

Dong Xiaoyan seemed to share the same feeling. Her eyes scanned the surrounding forest with unprecedented caution, and she whispered, “Something’s not quite right.”

“Yes, it doesn’t feel right.” Feng Yin replied in a low voice.

On this journey, Feng Yin had been extremely cautious. Apart from the time when they were resting and eating, he didn’t allow Feng Ying to show himself. Even at night, Feng Ying spent most of the time in Feng Yin’s pocket.

Ever since Feng Ying was spotted by the people of Great Qin, Feng Yin had become more cautious about concealing Feng Ying.

He could almost certainly say that if there really was a problem, it wouldn’t be with him.

If it was about him, the other party would have taken action long ago.

In other words, Dong Xiaoyan was the only one who could possibly cause trouble.

So, who would go after Dong Xiaoyan?

Or should I say, who would dare to provoke Dong Xiaoyan, and even set up traps against her?

In addition to being powerful, the people who were after her must belong to forces even more influential and formidable than Heavenly Sword Cloud Palace!

Feng Yin whispered, “You should summon your guardian now. If my estimation is correct…your enemies are coming for you this time and it might not just be one, several of them might have teamed up.”

Dong Xiaoyan took a deep breath and said, “If a real fight breaks out, remember to hide behind me and don’t act recklessly. The level of battles we’ll be engaging in is beyond your reach.”

With that, she waved her hand firmly.

Just in that moment, a faint laugh echoed through, “Miss Dong, long time no see.”

As the voice echoed, a figure appeared on top of a tree hundred feet away, his body swaying with the leaves in the breeze.

As soon as the voice died away, there appeared a thousand figures around them.

A massive encirclement was formed, and it slowly began to shrink, inch by inch, reducing the space within.

Two figures descended from the sky with a majestic aura, standing in front of Dong Xiaoyan.

But the encirclement didn’t care, seeming to be waiting for Dong Xiaoyan’s guardian to arrive.

“They are… from the Three Mountains!”

Feng Yin’s pupils suddenly shrank.

It turned out that the people targeting Dong Xiaoyan were actually from the Supreme Mountain, Wansui Mountain, and Jun Mountain, and not a single one of them was weak!

In a moment, a beam of light rose from a thousand feet away; the sky was filled with clouds, covering the area within a thousand feet.

“Miss Dong, as soon as we learned of your plan to travel in a leisurely manner, we arrived here five days in advance and set up a massive formation in secret.”

A man in blue clothes walked forward, his voice calm, “Miss Dong, today it’s inevitable for all four of you to die here. And I can assure you, not even a single piece of information will leak out!”

His voice was calm, but his eyes were full of hatred.

“Miss Dong, when you killed my son, did you ever think about today?”

…
