Seeing the Sixth Prince's appearance, Zhao Xi felt inexplicably funny and couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
"I say, Li Yue, why are you so timid? It's just a loud thunder, is it so scary?" Zhao Xi said helplessly. Looking at Zhao Li Yue's appearance, he felt inexplicably funny in his heart.
"Brother, you don't understand. I've always been timid, let alone something like this. Besides, look at the surroundings, it's so gloomy, how can I not be scared?
Look, it happened to thunder when I looked at the clouds. Isn't it directed at me?"
Zhao Liyue said angrily that he was not so scared at first, but when he took a look at the cloud, it suddenly exploded with thunder.
Zhao Xi raised her brows and looked at Zhao Liyue's timid appearance, shaking her head helplessly, seeing that he was so scared that he didn't even answer her question.
But as long as he rode forward, Zhao Liyue would definitely follow him.
Then Zhao Xi rode his horse deep into the forest.
Although Nanshan is not high, it covers a very large area.
Besides, they were all heading to different places, so it was difficult for them to meet.
When Zhao Liyue saw Zhao Xi riding forward alone, his heart trembled. The temperature in the air seemed to suddenly drop, and Zhao Liyue couldn't help but shiver.
"Brother... Hey, wait for me..." The more Zhao Li saw Zhao Xi leaving, the more panicked he became. If he left Zhao Xi's side, he might be in great danger.
After all, if there were any spiritual beasts on the South Mountain, and he had no spirituality at all, he might become their food in the next second. How could he feel at ease?
His skin had become so cold that bumps began to appear. He used his immense strength to steer his horse towards Zhao Xi.
With his unremitting efforts, Zhao Liyue finally caught up with Zhao Xi's footsteps.
Then beads of sweat appeared on Zhao Liyue's forehead, and his panting appearance resonated with people.
Her cheeks may have turned red because the condensed air caused her blood to flow rapidly.
Zhao Xi looked back and couldn't help but smile.
"Look at you, even at such a short distance, you act like you've suffered some kind of pain.
You're so useless! You said that if we encounter a spirit beast, we won't be able to rely on you, but what should I do if I can't protect you?"
Zhao Xi's unquestionable voice echoed in Zhao Liyue's ears.
Zhao Liyue lay straight on the horse's back, as if he had automatically isolated himself from the sounds from the outside world.
When his breathing became smoother, he began to notice the lingering sound of Zhao Xi's words. He immediately climbed up slightly and looked at Zhao Xi with an innocent face.
Zhao Liyue was about to explain to Zhao Xi, but when he saw Zhao Xi's dark face, he paused for a moment.
It's over now.
"Brother...I..." Zhao Liyue didn't know what to say, but just kept ringing his unclear words in Zhao Xi's ears.
Zhao Xi shook his head helplessly.
"Never mind, it's okay if you didn't hear clearly, but just be careful."
Zhao Liyue saw that his elder brother didn't seem to be about to get angry, so he finally calmed down.
"good."
The figures of the two people were vaguely seen passing through the woods, one in front and one behind. However, the surroundings were extremely quiet, so quiet that people began to doubt whether there were any living things in the mountains.
"Brother, have you noticed that this mountain is particularly quiet?"
Zhao Liyue frowned and looked around from time to time.
The clouds above the sky became denser and darker.
Zhao Liyue couldn't help but hug his neighbor. The air became even colder, so cold that Zhao Liyue's skin couldn't bear it.
Seeing Zhao Liyue's appearance and what Zhao Liyue said, Zhao Xi began to be alert. After all, this mountain looked really strange.
Normally, Nanshan would never be like this. There were at least one or two wild rabbits running around everywhere. It seemed that there must be danger here.
"Li Yue, you're right. This place is indeed unusual. It's eerily quiet. There's a good chance there are spirit beasts out there that we can't see. It's even more likely they're all dangerous, so you must be careful when you're behind me."
Zhao Xi's voice was subtle and serious, sounding beside Zhao Liyue's ears.
The more Zhao Liyue heard this, the more frightened he became. In a hurry, he ran to Zhao Xi's side.
"Brother, please stop talking. You know I'm timid. I'm afraid something will come out and eat me suddenly." Zhao Liyue pouted, holding back tears with a helpless look on his face.
Zhao Xi found Zhao Liyue's useless appearance inexplicably funny, yet helpless.
He had never seen anyone as timid as Zhao Liyue. Other people would not be so scared, let alone a man.
If it were a woman being scared, it wouldn't sound so strange, but now it looked like Zhao Liyue was especially like a woman.
"Okay, Li Yue, don't you think you look like a woman?" Zhao Xi said.
"What..." Zhao Liyue straightened his body unconvinced, with a worried look on his face.
Then, there were sparse noises coming from the bushes in the woods, a bit like something gnawing.
"Be careful, there's something in there."
Zhao Xi gripped the sword at his waist with one hand, frowned, and became alert.
The more Zhao Li saw how serious Zhao Xi looked, and the more he thought about the voice he had just heard, the more terrifying it all seemed.
He hugged his horse tightly.
Then he said nonsense: "No, no, no... Don't eat me, I haven't taken a shower for half a month and I stink, don't eat me, don't eat me." Zhao Liyue put his hands together, closed his eyes, and kept bowing with his hands, as if begging someone.
Zhao Xi was getting impatient listening to this. After all, there were a lot of things going on here. Why was this person so boring? He was just asked to be more careful, but why was he so timid?
"Satoshi, if you keep talking nonsense, I'll throw you into the bushes and let them eat you till not even a scrap is left."
Zhao Xi's voice kept ringing in Zhao Liyue's ears. Hearing this, he immediately covered his mouth, his body still shaking.
Then the movement in the grass became more intense, and Zhao Xi's brows were furrowed.
The leaves between the grass kept shaking, and then a white fluffy thing emerged from the bushes, which looked like a tail.
It was short and white, and looked gentle and cute, so much so that Zhao Xi relaxed his guard, and the wrinkles between his eyebrows had loosened. Zhao Liyue also heard the sound of the tail coming out.
He slowly raised his head and looked into the bushes. The little creature's tail looked quite cute.
"Brother, what is this thing?" Zhao Liyue looked at the tail and asked.
