Holding the Dark Ink Fan, Xie Feng asked, "How will you contact me when you come to pick up Xiangxiang? Besides, I'm at war, and the location is uncertain!"
Jin Yue said, "Come here."
Xie Feng: "?"
Jin Yue: "Come to my side."
Xie Feng shook his head. "Why aren't you coming? You're lazy, and so am I..."
Jin Yue: "..."
After a moment of silence, she walked over to Xie Feng, grabbed his arm, rolled up his sleeve, and tapped his arm a few times.
Xie Feng looked down and saw three moon patterns arranged in the shape of "pin" on the inside of his right arm. They were aqua blue and filled with light mist, like the aura of an immortal.
Jin Yue calmly explained, "This is our unique way of contacting each other. With this Moon Mark, I can sense your whereabouts."
Xie Feng narrowed his eyes. "Are you sure this isn't me being monitored? I value my privacy a lot."
After a moment of silence, Jin Yue spoke, "Generally speaking, after the Moon Mark, the sensed aura is very weak. The energy released by the Moon Mark will only become stronger if you encounter danger. However, don't be too complacent; I might not be able to get away!"
Xie Feng frowned. "What should we do then? I'm counting on you to help me out!"
Jin Yue said helplessly, "If it really comes to a life-or-death situation, I will send someone to rescue you!"
Xie Feng said, "You can't even protect yourself, and you're sending others? Really?"
Jin Yue's forehead vein throbbed. "Can you please stop being so skeptical? What happened to your docile demeanor when we first met? Where did your virtues go? Did they disappear?!"
Xie Feng shrugged and coughed lightly, saying, "Alright, I won't ask anymore!"
Jin Yue calmed herself down, glanced at Xiangxiang Xiang, turned around and drew a circle in the air. Wisps of energy surged out, and the circle transformed into a spatial vortex.
Xie Feng said, "Hello..."
Jin Yue turned around. "Is there anything else?"
Xie Feng said, "Who are you hiding from? Maybe... I can find someone to help you!"
Jin Yue looked over and saw Xie Feng's serious expression. She smiled faintly and said, "Thank you, Xie Feng, but only I can solve this problem. Because I... am running away from my arranged marriage!"
Xie Feng's expression froze for a moment.
Ah, well, there's really no way around it. I can't very well be her groom!
Xie Feng shrugged and said, "Indeed, there's nothing I can do to help."
Jin Yue smiled helplessly, turned around, stepped into the spatial vortex, and left.
Xie Feng turned around and stood guard over Xiangxiang.
After being infused with a powerful force, the little girl's condition gradually improved, and soon after, her eyelids twitched slightly, and she slowly woke up.
"Big brother..."
Xiangxiang looked up and saw Xie Feng's handsome face full of concern. She couldn't help but smile obediently.
Xie Feng sat down cross-legged and looked at her seriously, saying, "You can't use your power so easily. Why didn't you tell me? You just fainted, and it was a serious fainting spell!"
Xiangxiang's eyes twitched, and she immediately lowered her head, her fair fingers unconsciously tugging at the grass blades on the ground.
"I'm sorry, I was just thinking that you gave me delicious grass balls and took me in, so I should do something."
"My aunt said that it's impolite to just eat without doing any work! I... I won't do it again."
"..."
Xie Feng sighed inwardly, patted her head, and softened his tone. "Okay, there won't be a next time."
Xiangxiang nodded. "Mmm!"
Xie Feng asked again, "Do you miss your aunt?"
Xiangxiang pursed her lips and whispered, "I want to, but I'm more worried about her. I don't know why those people are chasing her. I really want to kill them! But my aunt won't let me use that kind of power!"
"Who's pursuing your aunt?"
"I have no idea."
What do they look like?
"Uh..." Xiangxiang raised her head slightly, recalling the appearance of the people chasing them. After a moment, she said, "They were wearing black armor, white cloaks, and black masks on their faces."
Hearing this, Xie Feng was somewhat perplexed.
There are too many people in the world who wear black armor and black masks, like his second senior brother, who has absolutely no clue.
At this point, Xiangxiang provided another crucial clue, saying, "These people's masks are strange; they look like they're made with large animal teeth underneath. It's terrifying."
Xie Feng lowered his eyebrows slightly; he felt that this description sounded somewhat familiar!
Where have I seen this before?
The Golden Devil Emperor Silkworm Race... Mysterious Space... Majestic Snow Peak... Black-Toothed Masked Man!
Xie Feng's eyes suddenly lit up!
Could it be them?
Or rather, someone of a higher rank, dressed similarly!
According to Xiangxiang, these people had white cloaks. But those who chased Xie Feng didn't have cloaks!
If that's the case, no wonder even someone as strong as Jin Yue had to flee in all directions.
She's running away from her arranged marriage. Whose marriage is she running from?
Jin Yue's status is definitely not low, and the person she is engaged to is likely an important figure in the mysterious Snow Peak.
Or rather, she herself is a person from the Snow Peak!
So, here's the question...
What power controls this Snow Peak?
Xie Feng then recalled what Long Cangxue had said not long ago: that his senior brother's physical body was on Peak of Heaven. Could Peak of Heaven be this mysterious Snow Peak?
Xie Feng's heart suddenly started pounding!
It's as if I've glimpsed a corner of some secret!
If Peak of Heaven is indeed this mysterious Snow Peak, then Long Cangxue's advice to him to improve his strength makes perfect sense!
The mysterious Snow Peak gave him a psychological shock that was no less than when he saw Long Cangxue in a silver dress at the end of the universe!
Xie Feng looked at Xiangxiang, the little girl, and Jin Yue. They must have some connection with the mysterious Snow Peak!
Xie Feng tentatively asked, " Xiangxiang, do you know about Peak of Heaven?"
"I've always stayed in the city and know nothing about the outside world. My aunt never tells me anything."
Xiangxiang shook her little head.
Xie Feng sighed softly, "Alright, by the way, I have some news for you. Your aunt came just now, and you were able to wake up because she saved you."
"Aunt!"
Xiangxiang's eyes lit up, and she quickly got up, looking around with excitement on her little face.
"Where is she? Auntie! Auntie!"
"They've already left."
"Oh..."
Xiangxiang sat down again, looking dejected.
Xie Feng said, "She's temporarily entrusting you to me. She'll come to pick you up in a few days."
"A few days is a few days, right?"
"Two months!"
"As long as my aunt keeps coming to see me, as long as she's alright, I can wait."
Xiangxiang clenched her little fists.
Xie Feng couldn't help but admire the child's maturity. When Sushang followed him, she was twice the age of Xiang Xiangxiang, yet she was much more lively and willful.
This child, Xiangxiang, is so sensible it breaks my heart!
Xie Feng said, "Don't think about your aunt, she'll be fine. Or, why don't you eat some grass balls to distract yourself?"
Xie Feng wanted to take the Long-lasting Eternal Grass Pill from his spatial ring, but it was already empty.
If you want to eat it, it has to be prepared on the spot.
Xiangxiang blinked and said with a smile, "It's okay, I don't have to eat it."
