Chapter 492 Xuanji Mountain
Su Ran was right after all!
Luo Sheng felt a chill run down her spine and had to look away from Yu Yan's back. But the chill vanished in an instant.
He was completely speechless.
The group of five set off on their mission in the westernmost part of the Tianxuan Domain, bordering the Tianji Domain, where there was a mountain range.
Xu Yaochen: "This is Xuanji Mountain. Our mission this time is to obtain the Phantom Fox's Tears within a month. The Phantom Fox has always been found in the inner area of Xuanji Mountain."
As he spoke, he looked at Feng Su and Yu Yan.
"Junior Brother Feng, Junior Sister Yan, you must stay close to us after we enter the mountain."
Yu Yan nodded, and Xu Yaochen smiled at her, unsurprisingly receiving a cold glare from Feng Su.
Xu Yaochen thought he probably knew what the relationship between the two was.
Haha, I never thought that someone as upright and virtuous as Junior Brother Feng would ever be chasing after someone.
Junior Sister Yan clearly has no interest in him, so what's the point of his possessiveness?
If Junior Brother Feng could treat him better, he might take pity on him and pass on some of his experience.
Xuanji Mountain is covered by forests.
Upon entering the mountains, cultivators are unable to fly and can only proceed on foot.
Feng Su had visited Xuanji Mountain dozens of times and was very familiar with the place.
As his vigilance relaxed, he couldn't help but recall the contents of the memory orb he had absorbed two days prior.
"careful!"
Feng Su suddenly put his arm around Yu Yan's waist, stepped on the tree trunk next to him, and stood on the treetop with her.
Yu Yan glanced down at the other person's hand clasped around her waist, the buzzing of poisonous bees filling her ears.
Xu Yaochen and his two companions were clearly prepared. Seeing that Feng Su and Yu Yan had reached the safe zone, they no longer held back and directly engaged in battle with the thousands of poisonous bees.
The appearance of the poisonous bees caught Yu Yan completely off guard; she never expected that Feng Su would react even faster than she did.
Seeing that Xu Yaochen and his group were handling the situation perfectly, Yu Yan glanced at the swarm of poisonous bees and spoke.
"Feng Su, have you forgotten that your master is at the Tribulation Transcending stage?"
She should be the one protecting him.
Or perhaps he doesn't need her protection. With his abilities and pride, he could join the battle below and lend them a hand.
Yu Yan is in the early stage of the Tribulation Transcending Realm.
Xu Yaochen and the other two were all in the mid-to-late stages of their tribulation.
Don't underestimate the difference of just one or two minor levels. For cultivators, it can take three to five hundred years of arduous practice to catch up. The higher one's cultivation level, the harder it is to advance. This is a fundamental law.
Feng Su seemed to have forgotten that he was holding Yu Yan's hand.
His deep voice came from above her head, with a hint of amusement.
"Then I must thank Master for giving me the opportunity to protect you."
Yu Yan's heart fluttered slightly, and she smiled, ruthlessly slapping away his hand that was on her waist.
Yu Yan said, as if joking, "Just mind your own business."
Feng Su's eyes darkened, and he covered the back of his hand that Yu Yan had slapped with his other hand, gently stroking it.
Years ago, he came to Xuanji Mountain alone and was stung by these poisonous bees. He didn't want his master to suffer that pain.
He glanced down at the three people fighting. Even someone as powerful as Xu Yaochen had been stung on his fair face.
Xuanji Mountain is clearly not a place for people with low cultivation levels; you can't just casually come in like that.
If these poisonous bees were left outside, a cultivator at the Tribulation Transcending stage could easily eliminate them with a single move.
However, not only is flying restricted in Xuanji Mountain, but even their cultivation levels are subtly suppressed. Although their realms remain unchanged, the speed and intensity of their attacks are clearly weakened.
