The sundial frowned. "It seems whether we can leave or not depends on tomorrow."
If they were to return to the palace of the Southern Rainbow Kingdom, in the territory covered by the divine power of the Southern Rainbow Kingdom's officials, the sundial's teleportation technique would likely be even more difficult to execute. Moreover, it would be their territory, and if their identities were exposed by carelessness, they would find it difficult to escape even if they wanted to.
Feng Guang understood this principle, and she asked Hua Zhouzhou, "When you distribute porridge tomorrow, how many people will be secretly protecting you?"
"Xingji said that for my safety, he would join forces with Fengquan to protect me. Not only Xingji's priests, but also Fengquan's soldiers would be there."
Feng Guang scratched his head and sighed, "With such tight defenses, how is anyone supposed to escape?"
It's all her fault. If she had known earlier that she would fall in love with the sundial, she wouldn't have thought of coming to Mu Gui's place when the sundial was using the teleportation technique. She would have saved herself so much trouble.
"Don't be discouraged, we are not without hope." Mu Gui said, "General Xinye has sent many people to Nan Cai Kingdom because of the loss of the goddess. We may not be able to detect it on the surface, but with General Xinye's ability, his people must have already ambushed us in the surrounding area. They just haven't had the opportunity yet."
Feng Guang said, "You mean, tomorrow when they distribute porridge will be a good opportunity for them to make their move?"
“Not bad,” the sundial said with a smile. “As long as they can cause trouble, we will have a chance to leave.”
Feng Guang exclaimed happily, "That's great!"
Hua Zhouzhou pouted, "It's not good at all."
She didn't want to see Xin Ye, that man who only used her. She had always thought he genuinely liked her, and when she was captured and taken to Nan Cai Kingdom, she was determined to escape and see Xin Ye.
Feng Guang looked at Hua Zhouzhou and said, "Don't think too much about it. Let's leave Nan Cai Kingdom first, and we can deal with the rest later."
Hua Zhouzhou couldn't think of any other solutions, so she could only nod helplessly.
Just as Hua Zhouzhou said, Mu Gui arranged for the distribution of porridge the next day. In addition to Xingji and Fengquan, Mu Gui also went to protect Hua Zhouzhou. As a result, Fengquan's primary protection target changed from Hua Zhouzhou to Mu Gui.
Fengguang and Rigui also participated in the porridge distribution event under the name of Huazhouzhou's friends. Although Fengguang was spoiled and wanted to escape, she was still enthusiastic about this kind of public welfare activity.
Seeing the sundial serving porridge to an old woman, Feng Guang glanced at the empty rice bucket in front of her and decided to go over and refill it herself. The person guarding the supply point was Xing Ji, a man of few words and a cold demeanor. She glanced at him casually, thinking that if she ignored him, he wouldn't bother with her either. She picked up the large wooden ladle with both hands, intending to scoop out the porridge, but her hands trembled so much that nine-tenths of the ladleful fell back into the large wooden bucket.
She sighed wearily, realizing she had overestimated her strength.
Then, the wooden spoon in her hand was snatched away. She looked up and saw Xingji. He easily scooped out the porridge and filled the rice bucket she was holding. Then he threw down the spoon, walked back to where he was without even looking at her.
Wow, quite aloof.
Feng Guang didn't bother with polite words and turned to leave. Unexpectedly, she was bumped into by a patrolling soldier. Just as she was about to fall, a pair of strong hands grabbed her arm from behind, and her back rested against his chest.
Xingji frowned. "What exactly did you use?"
"Huh?" Feng Guang, who was about to say thank you, was immediately confused.
A hint of annoyance appeared on Xingji's handsome face. "You didn't use any special incense, so why did my heat come on early?"
