Chapter 40: Getting Out of Trouble

The people who went into the dense forest did not dare to delay in the slightest, and while Tianke directed everyone forward, he left a sharp wind to cover up the traces left along the way, and set up some false imprints to lead the enemy who might be chasing him to the northeast.

Everyone rushed towards the direction of the mountain temple behind the ice city, which was not only connected to the demon forest, but also had a guardian formation set up by the ancestor emperor, and outsiders could not enter, making it an excellent place for refuge.

After running for several days, Bing Xuan had fallen into a deep sleep, and he must have been busy treating his mental wounds. The people did not dare to travel any longer, so they went deep into the mountains, found a dry natural cave, and settled down temporarily. Tian Ke and the others cautiously stood guard near the cave, and were summoned to carry out the mission together with the war pets. Not long after everyone stopped, Fei Yu also came to the resting place.

"Fei Yu, how is it, how is the enemy's movement?" Tian Ke hurriedly ran to Fei Yu, who had just landed, and asked.

"Patriarch, don't worry, the enemy was led to the west by me, and after I found out that I was fooled, I returned to investigate, and I was led to the northeast by the fake imprint you set up, and I came back after I was sure that it was safe. Fei Yu said breathlessly.

"That's good, we can't be careless, Your Majesty is at a critical juncture now, you take a little rest, and then go to the air regularly to patrol to ensure the safety of this place. Tian Ke said with a sigh of relief.

Two days later, in the middle of the night, Bing Xuan woke up leisurely. He felt several layers of thick, soft blankets spread under him, and a thin quilt over his body. Bing Xuan, who opened his eyes, slowly sat up by the light of the bonfire outside the cave, and then he found that Qiu Die was leaning against the cave wall and sleeping, and he had been sleeping on Qiu Die's soft thighs.

"Xuan, you've finally woken up, how are your injuries?" Bing Xuan's movements woke Qiu Die from her dream.

"It's out of the way, the mental trauma has recovered, where is Tianke?" asked Bing Xuan.

"Ah, I'm going to call him, and now he should be on guard around with everyone. Qiu Die said, getting up and walking out of the cave.

Afterwards, everyone came to the cave to inquire about Bing Xuan's injuries, and Bing Xuan told them about his current situation to put everyone at ease. Tian Ke felt Bing Xuan's eyes, and arranged his teammates out one by one to continue to be vigilant, while he stayed in the cave and waited for Bing Xuan's questioning.

"Any news?" Bing Xuan asked bluntly.

"Yesterday, Mo Zeng came back once, and he said that not long after we left Yancheng, the entire Yancheng was blocked, threatening to capture the remnants of the Ice Clan. It seems that this incident has alarmed the upper echelons of the Fire Nation. Tian Ke said.

"Well, I felt the strong fire elemental fluctuations from that demonic boy's spiritual power, and it is said that he should also be aware of my ice elemental aura. But why did he let us go? At that time, it was so easy to arrest us?" Bing Xuan said puzzled.

"Maybe he didn't take us seriously at all, and then told the rulers of the Fire Nation, and they took it as a big deal. I've already told Mo and asked him to check the identity of the strange man. Tian Ke guessed.

"Perhaps, as you might guess, that strange boy with a sense of arrogance should not have taken us seriously. By the way, that man's strength is not weak, and he is accompanied by holy beasts, you have to make Mo and them be very cautious, this is the time to employ people, and there can be no more losses, after all, our remaining strength is not very much. Bing Xuan said.

"Yes, I'll tell them. What's your Majesty's plan next?" Tian Ke asked.

"Where are we now?" asked Bing Xuan.

"After days of running, we are already close to the border of the Fire Country, and now we are in the northeast direction of the Sect Temple behind the Ice City, and it is estimated that there will be a day or two of travel to reach the back mountain of the Ice City. Tian Ke said in detail.

"Well, let's rest here for a few days, and when I recover from my injuries, I have a vague feeling that I will meditate for a few days and strive to realize again. You arrange for everyone to be on guard, and if there is any abnormal discovery, notify me immediately, so that I don't put everyone in danger. Bing Xuan ordered.

"Yes, my subordinates obey. Tian Ke said.

"Okay, you can also go out and take a rest, everyone has been cautious for so long, you can take a proper turn to rest. Bing Xuan said.

"My subordinates will arrange it, I'll step back first. Tian Ke said, bowing respectfully and retreating.

As soon as Tianke left the cave, Qiu Die entered the cave with freshly grilled meat and a jar of water. She sat down gently against Bing Xuan and handed the meat in her hand to Bing Xuan's mouth.

Bing Xuan's heart warmed, and he glanced at the autumn butterfly affectionately, and the autumn butterfly at this time was pink and red under the imprint of the firelight. Bing Xuan took the barbecue from Qiu Die's hand, and without saying a word, he devoured it. Although relying on the little fat man's pills these days can maintain the energy required by the body, but at the moment of deliciousness, Bing Xuan is also difficult to refuse. After a while, a large piece of fragrant barbecue meat had already entered his stomach, Bing Xuan wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth with satisfaction, took the water handed by Qiu Die, and drank it all.

"Wait, I'll go roast you some meat." Qiu Die happily watched Bingxuan finish eating, and was about to get up and go out.

"Qiu Die, no need, I've eaten enough, you've been worried for so many days, and now that my injuries are healed, it's time for you to take a good rest. Bing Xuan grabbed Qiu Die's little hand and said.

Qiu Die sat down silently, Bing Xuan slowly hugged her in front of her, the two of them lay down, and Bing Xuan pulled the thin quilt over the two of them. At this moment, two lines of tears slipped from Qiu Die's eyes.

There was nothing to say all night, and as soon as the sky was bright, Bing Xuan woke up again. Qiu Die had already left the bed and personally cooked meat porridge for Bingxuan by the bonfire.

Bing Xuan drank two bowls of meat porridge full of happiness, and his teammates were also dipped in Bing Xuan's light, and tasted the cooking skills of the princess herself, and they were full of praise one by one.

After eating, Bing Xuan summoned the Ice Saint and asked him to assist everyone in guarding so that his teammates could take time to rest.

"I'm going to start going into the retreat, there's nothing important not to bother me. Of course, if there is anything unusual, you must wake me up as soon as possible. Bing Xuan said to everyone.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, with me Da Zhuang here, the tendons and flesh of this body can also create a quiet cultivation environment for Your Majesty. Da Zhuang said straightforwardly.

"Da Zhuang, everything can't be solved by brute force, you have to learn more skills. Bing Xuan was directly amused by Da Zhuang, but it was not good to hit his true temperament.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, I will take care of it, and I will definitely not put everyone in danger. Tian Ke said reassuringly.

"Then I'll rest assured, you don't have to be too tired. After Bing Xuan finished speaking, he got up and walked towards the cave.
