When Qing Xuan woke up, the sun was shining brightly in the sky, and the scenery before his eyes was suddenly wide open.
Recalling the previous situation, he only remembered that a white light flashed before his eyes. Then the formation was activated, and the six of them disappeared in an instant. When he woke up again, he was here.
He saw that Jiang Yaoji and her brother had already woken up and were looking for them everywhere. So he quickly woke up Ji Yunxi.
"Master, master." Qing Xuan leaned over and whispered to Ji Yunxi. She didn't wake up, but Feng Xingzhi beside him was woken up by the noise.
"Shh!" He quickly told Qing Xuan not to make a sound.
"What shall we do now?" Qing Xuan stared intently at Jiang Yaoji and her brother not far away.
"I'll distract them. You take Yunxi and leave first. Find a place to stay. I'll join you soon."
"Okay. Be careful!" Qing Xuan reminded him uneasily.
Just as Feng Xingzhi was about to distract Jiang Yaoji and her brother, suddenly there came a burst of voices.
"The weather is nice today. It's perfect for sun - basking!"
"Yes!" The voices of the two young men were particularly noticeable on the vast mountain.
Feng Xingzhi stopped his action of standing up abruptly and had to crouch down again to hide.
Jiang Yaoji obviously also heard the voices and looked around warily.
"Brother, we don't know if they are enemies (the Xuanyuan Clan) or friends (the Shennong Clan). Let's leave first." Jiang Yaoji looked down at the two figures not far down the mountain. The two of them were walking slowly, apparently very familiar with this mountain.
"Okay. Let's go!" Jiang Yanjv didn't dare to take risks and led his sister away first.
Watching them leave, Qing Xuan let out a long sigh of relief. Feng Xingzhi glanced at the two people down the mountain, then walked to the entrance of the God - created World. He flipped his wrist, and spiritual power circled around his palm. Feng Xingzhi sent the spiritual power into the entrance of the God - created World, and soon the entrance was hidden.
"It's gone? Aren't we going back?" Qing Xuan looked at Feng Xingzhi in surprise.
"I'll explain this in detail later. I'm worried that the God - created World will be destroyed by Jiang Yaoji and her brother again, so I'll hide it first." Feng Xingzhi said earnestly. Qing Xuan nodded half - understanding. He believed that Feng Xingzhi must have his reasons for doing things and didn't ask any more questions.
"Let's go. Down the mountain."
Feng Xingzhi, Qing Xuan, and Lu Shu took Ji Yunxi and left.
As time passed, the town at the foot of the mountain had already changed its appearance. It was even more prosperous than before. The common people had smiles on their faces. Children were playing around, holding candied haws in their hands. In the distance, the cooking smoke was curling up, and the smell of food filled the street. It was already lunchtime.
Feng Xingzhi found a seemingly clean restaurant. The interior was well - arranged, and there were people coming and going. It was very lively.
"Sir, are you here for a meal or to stay?" The waiter immediately stepped forward attentively.
"To stay. Open two rooms."
"Sure, this way please!" The waiter led them upstairs. His eyes inadvertently glanced at Ji Yunxi. Qing Xuan glared at him, and the waiter immediately turned his head away.
"Sir, if you need anything, just tell me!" The waiter pushed the door open eagerly.
"That's okay. Just send some food up later."
"Sure!" The waiter had doubts in his heart but didn't dare to ask. He just took another curious look. After Feng Xingzhi finished speaking, he immediately walked far away.
Qing Xuan scratched his head, looking puzzled: "Are we that scary?"
Feng Xingzhi smiled and shook his head. He stood by the window. This was the second floor. Pushing open the window, he could see the backyard, and the scenery inside was in full view. He could also hear some of the conversations vaguely.
There were some female relatives and people dressed like scholars in the yard. The scholar said something that made the female relatives giggle.
From their conversation, they learned that it was now the era of the Xuanyuan Clan. The Shennong Clan had perished not long after he and Ji Yunxi entered the God - created World. The Lord of the Xuanyuan Clan had killed the Lord of the Shennong Clan.
"Knock, knock." The sound of knocking on the door suddenly rang out. Feng Xingzhi's eyes were full of changes, and he quickly and gently closed the window.
"Sir, your food is served."
"Oh, come in." His tense body relaxed, and Feng Xingzhi resumed his indifferent appearance.
The waiter placed the food on the table and was about to slip away when he was called back.
Feng Xingzhi had a cold face: "Why is the town so noisy recently?"
The waiter smiled and said: "You must be outsiders. It has always been lively in the era of the Xuanyuan Clan."
Hearing this, Feng Xingzhi squinted his eyes slightly. He should have understood why Jiang Yaoji had been eyeing Yunxi every day and even chasing her through every reincarnation, just to kill her.
The waiter was startled by his intimidating aura and said nervously: "Sir, I really only know that much. There are people from all over the world coming and going in the inn, so the news spreads naturally. But I'm not sure if it's true or false!"
"Don't be afraid. We've already got the answer we want. You can go." Qing Xuan handed him the money bag.
"Thank you, sirs." The waiter took the money bag and ran away in a flash. He didn't open the money bag until he got back to his room. He slapped himself: "There's really so much money. I'm not dreaming."
Qing Xuan looked at Feng Xingzhi: "Since that's the case, the Jiang siblings are the children of the Lord of the Shennong Clan. They definitely won't let the master go and have been making things difficult for her."
Feng Xingzhi didn't answer, but his eyes confirmed the answer.
"We can't get in touch with the Xuanyuan Clan for the time being. Well, let's take a boat early tomorrow morning and go back to the Huaxu Clan first and then make further plans."
"Okay!" Everyone started to pack their things.
Early the next morning, at dawn, Feng Xingzhi and his group woke up. They jumped directly onto the street. At this time, the sun was gradually rising.
The waiter came to deliver breakfast to the guests as usual but found that Feng Xingzhi's room was empty and all their things had been taken away.
The blue sea was calm. Many boats were shuttling through it. Fishermen were fishing on them. Ji Yunxi and Feng Xingzhi were sitting at the bow of the boat, chatting casually.
The boatman saw that they didn't look like locals and asked a few questions casually.
To avoid revealing their identities, Feng Xingzhi and Ji Yunxi introduced themselves as a newly - married couple. Feng Xingzhi answered the boatman's questions flawlessly. The boatman also sensed that he was deliberately hiding something. He smiled enigmatically and didn't ask any more questions. He just looked at the calm sea and said loudly: "The world has been unstable recently. The remaining forces of the Shennong Clan are gathering people, and there are frequent wars everywhere. It's pitiful for us common people."
"What about the Emperor of the Xuanyuan Clan?" Ji Yunxi was intrigued by this. Feng Xingzhi looked at the boatman curiously, not understanding why he suddenly brought this up.
"I don't know what the Emperor of the Xuanyuan Clan has been doing recently. Even that Xuanyuan Prince has disappeared. How could a person just vanish like that." There was a hint of disappointment in the boatman's tone.
