The bonfire at night illuminated the dead land a little. Zhao Ji was still crying beside the bonfire, applying medicine to Ying Zheng while crying.
Chen Xuan watched the drama of deep love between mother and son with a helpless look on his face, secretly feeling sorry for his throat.
Why did I let Zheng kid go up in a fit of anger? Damn, if anything happens, I will beat myself to death.
Chen Xuan smacked his head in regret, not wanting to be seen by Ying Zheng who was lying on the ground. He smiled again, which made Chen Xuan so angry that he stood up and started to make a scene again.
"Zheng'er? Does it hurt? If it hurts, tell me. I feel so bad for you!" Zhao Ji was about to cry as she spoke, causing Ying Zheng to try to coax her in a panic again.
Chen Xuan lay down silently, closed his eyes and saw the animal bone shining with golden light again.

Rewards, unknown (depending on completion)]
Not finished yet? Does that mean the assassination isn't over yet? Ah—please spare me, my throat won't be able to take it if you do it again!
Chen Xuan complained for a while, then his mind moved and the words on the beast armor changed.

Has Longwei been upgraded? Pretty good. But, is this ten-day cooldown a joke?! I'm screaming myself hoarse, and this is it? This is it?
Chen Xuan secretly despised the developer of the beast armor for a while, then felt as if he was being picked up by something. He opened his eyes and saw that it was Ying Zheng who had just applied the medicine.
"Zheng'er, sleep with me tonight, and ride in a car with me tomorrow." Zhao Ji looked at Ying Zheng with concern, fearing that the disaster during the day would happen again at night.
Ying Zheng responded, but his eyes never left Chen Xuan. Chen Xuan felt extremely panicked, and quickly twisted his body and flew back to Ying Zheng's head, staying there, no matter how Ying Zheng scratched him, he would not come down.
Zhao Ji saw Ying Zheng scratching his head from time to time and felt distressed. She went forward and hugged Ying Zheng again, coaxing him, "Zheng'er, we will arrive in Qin tomorrow. When we get there, I will definitely take you to take a bath first. Stop scratching. If you keep scratching the wound, mother will be distressed again."
Ying Zheng quickly stopped, fearing that he would make Zhao Ji cry again. Chen Xuan also took the opportunity to avoid Ying Zheng's harassment, lying quietly on Ying Zheng's head with his eyes closed to rest.
After listening to another conversation, and then another ups and downs, Chen Xuan felt as if his body was hitting wood, and he knew that Ying Zheng was going to sleep again.
"Chen Xuan, sleep well!"
Ying Zheng avoided Zhao Ji and greeted her in a low voice. After waiting for a while, he saw that Chen Xuan did not reply to him. He snorted twice, turned over to express his dissatisfaction, and then fell asleep peacefully.
Chen Xuan stayed there for a while, and when he heard Ying Zheng's soft snoring, he opened his eyes and flew up.
With the moonlight shining through, Chen Xuan looked at Ying Zheng who was sleeping particularly soundly. There was no trace of the fighting during the day on his peaceful little face.
"Zheng boy, sleep well."
After saying that, Chen Xuan took two more glances and then floated out through the curtain.
The people in the carriage were sleeping soundly, and the black horse pulling the carriage was also soothed to sleep. The maid serving Zhao Ji was sleeping soundly beside the shaft of the carriage. Only dozens of guards were on duty in shifts.
Chen Xuan used the moonlight to identify the people and soon found the person who led the charge during the day.
If I remember correctly, his name is Meng Que, right?
Chen Xuan floated in front of Meng Que, looking up and down at the middle-aged man who was sitting upright.
"Hey! Did you see me in broad daylight?!" Chen Xuan looked at him for a while and suddenly asked. Meng Que did not move, still sitting upright, his eyes seemed to pass through Chen Xuan and look forward.
Chen Xuan stared for a while, and by chance a ray of moonlight shone down. Chen Xuan could see clearly into Meng Que's eyes in the moonlight - there was no reflection of Chen Xuan there.
Is the afternoon an illusion?
Chen Xuan was a little confused.
No, he definitely saw me this afternoon.
Chen Xuan looked at Meng Que, his resolute face slowly overlapped with a surprised face, and a reflection appeared in his eyes, a child holding a sword with the reflection of a dragon floating behind him.
The effect of Dragon's Fury?
Chen Xuan thought about it for a while, and stopped hesitating. He turned around and glanced at Meng Que quietly, then flicked his tail and quickly floated back into the carriage, landing on Ying Zheng's head.
Is that Meng Que? A member of the Meng family? Isn't there a person with this name in history? Does that mean he died here trying to save Zulong and return to his country?
