Chapter 130 Adventure
Chapter 130 Adventure
To get to the outskirts of the Forbidden Forest, one needs to ride their mounts for one night and a day, before transferring to a carriage and finally walk on foot. This is because of the fog and the other magic creatures inside the forbidden forest.
"Hmph! Liutao had a special mount from his father and that elder." Yunyun's complaints reached Fang Yu's ears. "Ji Tian… why didn't you ask for a mount from your master?"
"Oh. My master is already in seclusion." Ji Tian answered.
"Seclusion? She didn't even send you off?"
"Yunyun… you should be careful with your words. She is still an elder of the Sect." Fatty Lu joined in the conversation.
"Yunyun, Master Fang is actually very kind to me." Ji Tian gave a shy smile, his eyes lowered. Seeing this, Yunyun stopped talking about Fang Yu and just shifted her gaze at the scenery. Currently, they are riding a bee-like mount except its colour is blue. This is known as the Aerial Bee and could grow up to ten feet long. This is also the most common mount that people could hunt in the Forbidden Forest.
"I wish… someone will hunt a dragon for me as a mount." Yunyun uttered. Since she was sitting next to Fang Yu, her words were very clear to her. "Hey, Jin… I heard Elder Mo is hunting a dragon for Elder Fang. Is that true?"
"I don't know." Fang Yu just gave a shy smile before lowering her head, acting like a shy little teenager in front of a beauty.
After seeing his awkward smile, Yunyun decided not to talk to Jin anymore and focus her attention back to Fatty Lu and Ji Tian. She started talking about gossip again. This time it was about the Frozen Wraith Sect and how they were planning to send some of their disciples in the ruins.
"If we see them. We should kill them." Yunyun added. "I remember they actually dared to send a concubine to Elder Fang's wedding? Those people will suffer from my hands!" Yunyun clenched her fist, holding her head up high, looking extremely heroic.
"Yunyun… those people are pretty powerful. I doubt you would be able to beat them." Fatty Lu uttered. "I heard that this time they would send the next Sect Master Xiawen Dong to guard outside while all of the disciples that will go inside are all peak level of the condensation stage."
"Peak? But… isn't that too unfair?" Yunyun responded.
"That's what the rumours say." The fatty shrugged and said nothing.
"Then… maybe these people are here to kill us." Fang Yu or Jin's voice made the three people and the other disciples look at him.
"What do you mean?"
"I remember the rumours say that Elder Mo declined the concubine and asked her to dig the soil. I think those actions angered the Frozen Wraith Sect and now they wanted revenge by teaching us a lesson."
"Now that you said that…" Yunyun held her chin. "I think that is the case too! Heh… those people needed some beating. Don't worry everyone, the great Yunyun will protect you! You too Ji Tian and Jin… no need to worry about these people. I will just protect you too!"
"How about me?" Fatty Lu grumbled.
"You use your fats! You fatty!" Yunyun said. Her words were followed by the laughter of the other people on the aerial bee. Hearing this, Fang Yu let out a smile too. It seems that this journey is going to be fun.
"But Yunyun… how sure are you that Xiawen Dong is coming too? I mean… I heard he is pretty powerful. He might be more powerful than the Elder accompanying us this time." Of course, she wanted to make sure that Xiawen Dong is really coming. This time, Fang Yu is planning to kill that man.
"Hmmm. These are only rumours, so I am not sure."
Fang Yu nodded and didn't say any word throughout the trip. Just like that, the first night passed with Fang Yu and the others flying in the sky. The next morning, they arrived in the next checkpoint and transferred to a carriage. This time, Fang Yu, Ji Tian, Yunyun, Fatty Lu and surprisingly Dongfang Liutao rode one carriage together towards the next checkpoint.
Unlike the previous happy environment with Yunyun talking all the time, the ride on the carriage was not as fun. Even Fang Yu had to endure sitting in the carriage the whole day while listening to Dongfang Liutao's boastful stories about his adventure.
At the end of the journey, everyone inside the carriage heaved a sigh of relief and started walking towards the forbidden forest. They still needed to walk for a night and a day before they would arrive in the nearest town where they will rest before finally entering the forest. After hours of walking, the group finally decided to rest and camp outside for the night.
"Hey. Ji Tian… are you going to share a tent with Jin?" Fatty Lu asked.
"No need." Jin answered. "Fatty Lu, you can share with Ji Tian. I brought my own tent." She already saw that this fatty is a bit afraid of the dark. So, he tended to stay with others so he could sleep.
"Really?"
"Hmm" She nodded. Plus, she needed to sneak out tonight and visit the forest in advance to know if she would be able to go inside the ruins.
"Thank you, Jin!" The Fatty beamed and immediately helped Ji Tian set up their own tent. Seeing this, Fang Yu also started setting up his tent. After everyone was able to set up their tents. They immediately gathered so they could eat. Since all of them are tired from walking all day, they decided to retire for the night the moment they finished their food.
Two hours later, Fang Yu was already out of her tent and started flying towards the town. In this part of the continent, only people who could fly using their Qi can pass as they have a way to hide their scent away from the magical beasts. If one would use another beast to fly, or a magical artifact, the magical creatures would immediately attack them.
Slowly, Fang Yu used her Qi to pass the town, going directly into the forbidden forest entrance. Seeing the opening of the ruin that was enveloped by fog, Fang Yu extended her hand, trying to see if she could pass. However, when she was about to touch the barrier, someone pulled her hand away, pulling her towards the nearest tree. She let out a surprised gasp.
"Why are you here?" she asked as surprise flashed in her eyes.
