Chapter 302: No Peeking
The young man walked straight to Ye Fei's side, gently placed a hand on her shoulder, and coldly swept his phoenix eyes toward the Second Elder.
No one spoke. Everyone felt as if an invisible hand was gripping their necks, suppressing them so they couldn't utter a sound.
The Second Elder was terrified by Li Yuan's cold gaze. The bone-chilling coldness could climb up his spine and rush straight to his brain even through his clothes!
How could a boy of ten years old have such a threatening presence?
Li Yuan's gaze slowly shifted from the Second Elder's face to Ye Ning's. His gaze, as sharp as that of a death god, filled Ye Ning with fear.
Ye Fei looked up at Li Yuan, the coldness on her face fading, and tugged at his sleeve: "Let's go."
Li Yuan grabbed Ye Fei's wrist and left. Since she wanted revenge, he wouldn't make a move easily.
Only after watching Ye Fei and Li Yuan leave one after the other did the chilling aura surrounding Ye Ning slowly dissipate.
Who exactly is that boy?
He seems to have a very good and intimate relationship with that bitch Ye Fei, and even the senior who just saved her seems to be quite wary of him...
Ye Ning's hand involuntarily reached into her pocket and touched a small bottle; her expression instantly turned ferocious.
It's alright.
Once she throws the Dream Butterfly Powder into the Panlong Peak, triggering a beast tide, killing Ye Fei will be a matter of moments.

Ye Fei and the others continued their search for a way out.
The seven people wandered around in the intricate forest for most of the day, and even as night fell, they still hadn't found the main path.
"It's late. Let's find a place to rest for the night and make plans for tomorrow."
Ye Fei saw a large open space ahead and spoke to her teammates behind her.
“Alright, I also don’t recommend traveling at night.” Yun Fusang casually picked up a dry branch from the roadside bushes.
Upon arriving at the open space, the teammates continued to divide the tasks and work together.
This time, Li Yuan didn't go hunting with the other boys, but instead cut tree branches with Ye Fei.
"What, are you afraid I'll run off to some dangerous place again?" Ye Fei couldn't help but chuckle.
Li Yuan raised his hand and pinched her cheek: "You still dare to say that."
"No, no... Tsk, stop pinching me, you're making my face all red."
Hearing the girl's soft accusations, Li Yuan released his grip, a slight smile playing on his lips, and continued with what he was doing.
With someone else helping her trim tree branches, Ye Fei quickly finished making the wooden fire stand.
Ye Fei placed some more dry branches and grass under the fire stand, and as she watched the flames gradually rise, she nodded in satisfaction and stretched.
"I'll go find a clean water source nearby," Ye Fei said to Li Yuan, blinking her eyes.
Li Yuan didn't say anything, he just nodded.
"Oh, by the way, I might be back a little late..." she thought for a moment, then whispered.
"how?"
"I want to wash myself." Ye Fei rubbed her arms and smiled awkwardly, "I'm dirty and feel a bit uncomfortable."
Li Yuan gazed at Ye Fei with a deep look in his eyes. After a long while, he said, "Alright, go and come back soon."
Ye Fei looked around. Yun Fusang and Yu Muhan were both gathering firewood with their backs to her. She immediately cupped the boy's face and kissed him on the lips: "Don't you dare peek!"
...
After searching for a while, Ye Fei discovered a small, crystal-clear pool and was surprised to find wisps of steam rising from its surface.
She tentatively put her hand into the pool, and when she touched the warm water, her eyes lit up!
This is actually a hot spring!
Ye Fei immediately released Qing Li and Bi Yun: "You two keep watch for me, I'm going to take a shower first."
