"You're so easily scared?" Li Jiuge's eyes were filled with disdain. She kicked him and said, "Yunxi, let's go find Qingxuan first."
Ji Yunxi was also worried about Qingxuan and immediately nodded.
Hua Siyun was still standing there. She was in a daze.
According to the news from the servants, this Feng Xingzhi shouldn't be such a powerful person. How could his spiritual power cultivation be completely different from that of the so - called sickly prince?!
The way he waved his sleeve just now was truly heart - stirring. Hua Siyun had no special feelings before, but now her face suddenly felt hot.
What if this man could be hers?
This thought suddenly popped into her mind.
Looking at Ji Yunxi standing beside Feng Xingzhi, Hua Siyun suddenly felt a bit disappointed. It was a pity that Ji Yunxi was truly a formidable rival.
Ji Yunxi ignored Hua Siyun. Anyway, there were many experts around her. But since Hua Siyun had advised her just now, Ji Yunxi still said, "Princess, we're leaving first."
After saying that, she pulled Feng Xingzhi and was about to leave.
Hua Siyun came to her senses and quickly stopped them. "Wait!"
She stepped closer to Feng Xingzhi, blushing like a shy young girl. "Brother Xingzhi! Can you take me with you?"
Ji Yunxi raised her eyebrows. It was obvious to everyone that the one with real say in this team was herself, but Hua Siyun had bypassed her and specifically approached Feng Xingzhi.
However, even if the goddess was interested, it was hard to move this blockhead Feng Xingzhi.
He didn't even look at her. Instead, he immediately said to Ji Yunxi, "I'll follow whatever Xixi says."
Hua Siyun's face instantly turned a bit ugly. She thought she was good - looking, but Feng Xingzhi didn't have the slightest interest in her and didn't even want to look at her.
She couldn't help but feel a bit frustrated. "Xingzhi..."
"Princess, please be proper. We're not familiar. Please don't address me like that. Just call me Prince."
Hua Siyun's face changed. "I, okay, Prince, I understand. I got separated from my guards. So can I go with you?"
Feng Xingzhi said coldly, "It's not just me. It's all of us. And it's not up to me. We all follow Xixi's orders."
"Pfft!" Ji Yunxi laughed. Feng Xingzhi was being polite to Hua Siyun because of her status. Otherwise, he might have said something even harsher.
She glanced at Hua Siyun and thought it was funny. "Alright, Princess, it's not impossible for us to take you with us."
Li Jiuge curled her lips and quickly stepped forward, whispering into Ji Yunxi's ear. "Yunxi! Are you crazy? You can see she has designs on my cousin. You're not really going to take her with us, are you? How can you keep such a troublemaker by your side?"
"I..."
Before Ji Yunxi could answer, Hua Siyun asked her with a look of grievance. "It seems that Miss Ji has some conditions? Please tell me. As long as I can do it, I definitely won't refuse."
Ji Yunxi shook her head helplessly. "I only have one condition, which is to follow my commands. If you can't do it, I'll ask you to leave at any time."
Hua Siyun thought for a while. Although it made her a bit unhappy to follow Ji Yunxi's orders, but... this was the only way to stay with them.
"Okay, I agree! I'll follow your orders."
Hua Siyun had a good plan. She was straightforward in nature. If she could often be in front of Feng Xingzhi, maybe she would have a chance.
Ji Yunxi nodded and casually patted Li Jiuge on the shoulder. "Don't worry. It'll be fine. Besides, it's better to keep an eye on her up close, isn't it?"
Her voice was very soft, barely convincing Li Jiuge.
"Fine. The higher we go, the more difficult it is to deal with the monsters. Having one more person means one more force."
Seeing that Li Jiuge had accepted, Ji Yunxi followed her words. "Right. Besides, don't you trust your cousin?"
Her face blushed slightly, but her tone was full of determination. "He only likes me."
Li Jiuge took a deep breath and regretted it.
She should have known that their relationship was so sweet. She had been worrying for nothing.
"Okay, okay. I naturally trust you two. I just find Hua Siyun annoying."
Ji Yunxi looked at her mischievously. "Jiuge, think about it. Actually, she should call me aunt. Even her name was given by my sister because she missed me. You're my friend. So what do you think you are to her?"
Li Jiuge suddenly realized and immediately covered her mouth to stop herself from laughing.
"You're right. I'm an elder now. I shouldn't argue with her. Fine, fine. Let's take her with us."
Hua Siyun didn't know what the two were talking about. But when Li Jiuge looked up again, the look in her eyes towards herself was somehow full of the kindness of an elder, which made Hua Siyun feel a chill down her spine.
After everyone got everything ready, they turned around and left.
Lü Chengming slowly opened his eyes after they left. In fact, he had been pretending all along. When he heard the name Xingzhi, he guessed the person's identity.
So he was actually the Prince Feng of Southern Yan. But since Ji Yunxi was here, it was not surprising that the prince, who was her fiancé, was also here.
He hated her secretly in his heart. He must avenge the loss of his hand today. Ji Yunxi must pay in blood. After leaving Eastern Jin, he would definitely tell his father and ask the emperor of Southern Yan to kill Ji Yunxi himself!
Ji Yunxi led the group and followed the little beast. Suddenly, she found a unique tree. There was a faint trace of Qingxuan's aura beside the tree.
"Qingxuan must have been here!"
Ji Yunxi exclaimed and immediately circled around the tree to look for clues.
As she walked, she suddenly found that the tree seemed to be alive.
She was terrified and quickly dodged, staring at the slowly moving vines. "It's actually alive?! Could it be a fierce beast?!"
She was secretly shocked. Staring at the tree, she suddenly found that all the vines could move, but only one was tightly wrapped around the middle.
So this is your weakness?
Ji Yunxi curled her lips into a smile and grabbed a wisp of spiritual power to attack the tree. Although it was a fierce beast, there was no need to kill it completely.
Sure enough, the tree immediately stopped moving. Maybe because of fear, it even offered a key.
"This tree... bullies the weak and fears the strong?!" Hua Siyun stood aside and suddenly said, "Why were you so fierce to me just now!"
It turned out that Hua Siyun had really gotten separated from her guards. She couldn't see anything clearly in the thick fog and had been toyed with by this moving tree. Now seeing how obedient it was to Ji Yunxi, she was really furious!
Ji Yunxi, who had obtained the key, looked at Feng Xingzhi. "Could it be that I can't sense Qingxuan because he couldn't find us in the thick fog and accidentally triggered the door with the key and went to the sixth floor?"
Her idea was reasonable. The group didn't dare to wait any longer. They quickly found all the keys and headed for the next floor.
Without any interference, they reached the tenth floor in no time.
There was still no news of Qingxuan. Ji Yunxi looked up and saw that the person who had always been in the lead had already reached the thirteenth floor.
Ji Yunyi was extremely curious. "I wonder who this person is. He's already reached the thirteenth floor all by himself."
Hearing this, Hua Siyun widened her eyes. "You don't even know?!"
