Chapter 485: Chapter 484: It Hurts to Feel Sorry for Him, It Hurts to Be Moved by Him!

Chu Qianli and Feng Yexuan ascended to Langya Peak via hot air balloon.

As they had anticipated, the peak was heavily guarded with archers ready for combat.

Before getting too close, they landed on the mountaintop via parachute.

As soon as they landed, they were stopped by layer upon layer of guards.

"I have with me the Token of Long Xiyue. Just hand the Token over to General Wei Xian, and I believe the general will certainly agree to meet me," she said.

She offered the Token with both hands, "Whether this Token is genuine or fake, let the general have a look, and he will surely be able to tell."

The leading guard was skeptical but took the Token nevertheless.

He ordered someone to guard the two of them and immediately took the secret passage to see Wei Xian.

About half an hour later, the guard hurried back and said to Chu Qianli, "The lady is invited in."

Feng Yexuan was about to follow when the guard said sternly, "My master is only willing to meet this lady."

Chu Qianli turned back, looked at Feng Yexuan, and reassured him, "Just have some tea here, I’ll be back soon. Don’t get into any conflicts."

In the end, she also earnestly looked at the guard, "This friend of mine has exceptional martial arts skills and not the best temper, I hope the general can be somewhat accommodating."

"We definitely do not wish to have any conflicts with you," she added.

The guard hastily replied, "As long as the lady’s friend does not cause trouble, I will certainly not be discourteous."

Chu Qianli turned back to look at Feng Yexuan.

Feng Yexuan snorted, "We’ll see when you return. If it’s late, I may not have the patience."

"I will be as quick as possible! Please, keep your cool, I beg of you!"

Feng Yexuan didn’t answer, but his expression seemed to confirm his agreement.

Chu Qianli quickly followed the guard into the secret passage.

No wonder the Empress has been wanting to get rid of General Wei Xian all these years but still fails to do so to this day.

From the outside, Langya Peak seemed unremarkable, but from the inside, it was clear it was an unrivaled natural defense.

They descended via an iron basket along the secret passage, with sheer cliffs on both sides.

There were ambushes on both cliff sides, and such a narrow path on the way down meant that no matter how skilled in martial arts you were, it was difficult to withstand the surrounding ambush.

Of course, what was difficult to go down was naturally not easy to climb up either.

Chu Qianli couldn’t help but ask the guard beside her, "If the general wanted to leave, this...would be difficult, right?"

"The general certainly has other ways," the guard replied, not wanting to say too much.

Chu Qianli said no more, and once down, the scenery before her eyes suddenly became bright and clear.

The bottom of the cliff was a complete paradise!

The guard prompted, "Lady, please."

...Chu Qianli returned after two hours had passed.

Feng Yexuan was already growing impatient.

She quietly let out a sigh of relief, well aware that if she had come back any later, Loyal Brother might have rushed in.

"Did they give you any trouble?" Feng Yexuan asked coldly.

"No, General Wei Xian and I had a good talk, but now I must hurry back to see Wei Qiong," she replied.

Feng Yexuan did not ask further.

They took a hot air balloon down from Langya Peak again, but this time, not long after leaving the peak, the balloon was punctured by cold arrows.

Luckily, Chu Qianli had been prepared and had strapped on parachutes with Feng Yexuan earlier.

It seemed that hot air balloons were unsafe in ancient times too, easily shot down at any moment.

However, this time, the wind at the peak scattered them apart.

Chu Qianli quickly landed and packed the parachute away.

Before she could look for Feng Yexuan, a gust of corrupt air suddenly assaulted her from behind.

Swoosh! Chu Qianli drew her short knife and slashed behind her.

The person was cut but still struggled to pounce toward her.

Chu Qianli’s heart trembled, she leapt up and retreated several steps vigorously.

Medicine Man!

What was happening?

In Longteng Country, there are also Medicine Men!

But the Medicine Men I encountered here seemed somewhat different from those in Beiming Country.

They didn’t entirely lack reason like the Medicine Men of Beiming Country.

Seeing Chu Qianli dodge, that Medicine Man actually raised his hand and blew a whistle.

He was calling the nearby Medicine Men!

A tightness seized Chu Qianli’s heart, and she leaped up, bringing her blade down on a vital spot.

The Medicine Man eventually fell to the ground, unable to rise again.

But the surrounding Medicine Men were certainly all on their way.

Chu Qianli turned and fled.

The Medicine Men here were conscious, not entirely like wild beasts.

Yet they still lacked pain nerves, able to stand and fight even if severely injured.

Such Medicine Men were even more terrifying than those in Beiming Country.

Around her, the stench of decay grew increasingly intense.

There were many Medicine Men!

Just as Chu Qianli was looking for a place to hide, a cold breeze suddenly struck from behind.

She instinctively swung her blade in defense.

A man’s deep, familiar voice penetrated her ears, "It’s me!"

Chu Qianli hurriedly pulled back her blade, and as her shoulder grew heavy, she was grabbed and lifted in a leap.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. Several Hidden Weapons appeared in the spot she had just been standing!

The Medicine Men actually knew how to use Hidden Weapons!

Without time to think, Chu Qianli was already being whisked away by Feng Yexuan, escaping a great distance.

In the blink of an eye, they vanished into another patch of woods.

After several leaps, the scent of decay finally faded away.

The two landed on the ground, Feng Yexuan releasing her.

Only then did Chu Qianli let out a deep sigh of relief and looked at him, "These Medicine Men... they’re different from those in Beiming Country!"

Without speaking, Feng Yexuan merely nodded, walked toward the nearby riverbank, and dipped his hands into the water, beginning to wash them.

It was only then that Chu Qianli noticed his hands were coated with dark blood.

"The blood of a Medicine Man?" she asked urgently.

Feng Yexuan nodded again.

Chu Qianli immediately washed her own hands clean, then took out a bottle from the Universe Chain, poured out a Medicine Pill, and offered it to Feng Yexuan’s lips.

"The blood of a Medicine Man is poisonous, Loyal Brother, take the antidote first."

Feng Yexuan opened his mouth and took it in.

His thin lips brushed against her fingertips, soft and warm!

A rush of heat surged through Chu Qianli’s heart, causing her fingers to hurriedly withdraw as her heart beat wildly.

The more it thumped, the more it seemed to ache.

Curse it! That familiar pain!

Whenever she felt concern or her heart fluttered for him, her heart would ache! It was too unbearable!

She quickly stood up, retreating several steps, distancing herself from him.

When Feng Yexuan rose to his feet, he saw her drawing away.

His eyes narrowed slightly, displeasure flickering in them, "Does this prince really frighten you that much?"

"It’s not that you’re frightening, it’s just..." Chu Qianli didn’t know how to explain.

Perhaps he was frightening in a way!

Every time she got too close, her heart ached, and she truly couldn’t endure that pain!

Eager to avoid his questioning, Chu Qianli quickly changed the subject, "I... I went to see General Wei Xian, and you didn’t ask a single question about it. Aren’t you curious?"

Yet to her surprise, Feng Yexuan simply said, "It’s an affair of Longteng Country. Why should this prince inquire?"
