After Ye Jingtang left the mountain stream, he headed northeast according to the direction pointed by the bird.
It was almost dawn, and the rain was getting lighter. There was some brightness in the mountains, but it was still difficult to see the rocks and trees clearly.
After Ye Jingtang walked more than 5 kilometers, he arrived at the top of a mountain. He covered his mouth with both hands and let out an owl cry.
A moment later, a white shadow flew over from the distant mountain forest and silently landed beside Ye Jingtang. It complained, probably about how Sister Demoness had ignored it just now.
Ye Jingtang coaxed the sulking bird and silently moved forward in the forest. Soon, he arrived near a cave. Guan Yujia didn’t seem to have left yet.
Although he was 100% confident of killing Guan Yujia if he rushed in now, if the other party refused to say anything, he still wouldn’t be able to find the Prince of Wu’s whereabouts.
For this reason, Ye Jingtang didn’t go forward directly. Instead, he used his saber to cut open the bushes and vines about a kilometer away, pretending to clear a mountain path to scout the way.
Crack!
Crack!
As the sound came, there was an immediate reaction in the distant cave. Guan Yujia, whose robe was torn and covered in blood, silently came out from inside. He looked in the direction of the sound and quickly fled south.
Ye Jingtang followed him for a while. He guessed that the Prince of Wu’s hiding place was very far away, so he let the bird continue to follow him. Then he returned the way he came and headed back to the vicinity of the Iron River Manor to prevent anything from happening to Ning’er and Third Lady if he left for too long.
After flying dozens of kilometers in the mountains and forests, he returned to the stone cliff. The sky had already brightened, and the rain had gradually stopped.
Pei Xiangjun had been keeping watch all night. At this moment, she was lying on the ground and looking around with her monocular. When she saw Ye Jingtang return, she asked, “How is it? Who was in trouble?”
Ye Jingtang landed at the edge of the stone cliff and sighed softly. “It’s nothing. Daoist Xuanji drank too much and slept in the mountain…”
Rustle-
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a commotion from behind the curtain. Luo Ning, whose clothes and appearance were disheveled, raised the curtain and asked in confusion, “You went out? What happened to Daoist Xuanji?”
“It’s nothing. It’s just that the bird lied about the intelligence. I went over to take a look and left without finding anything wrong…”
Ye Jingtang couldn’t say anything about Daoist Xuanji’s drunken madness. After explaining in a few words, he sat down outside the curtain. “Third Lady, you didn’t sleep the entire night. Rest for a while. When the bird comes back to report the news, it will be at least afternoon. We won’t be able to leave for the time being.”
Pei Xiangjun was indeed sleepy, but when she looked at Ye Jingtang, she hesitated. “You slept for less than two hours last night…”
Luo Ning had slept the entire night and was already awake. Hearing this, she quickly put on her clothes and came out. “Why don’t the two of you sleep? I’ll keep watch.”
Ye Jingtang had been busy all night. After the ‘treatment’, he had gone to coax the crazy drunk. He really didn’t sleep well. Hearing this, he didn’t decline and rolled into the curtain.
Pei Xiangjun’s eyelids were already tired, but she was still a little embarrassed. Just as she was about to say something, she noticed Luo Ning’s disdainful gaze and swallowed her words. She glared back at Luo Ning, raised the curtain, and entered.
Ye Jingtang used his traveling bag as a pillow. Seeing Third Lady lying down gracefully in front of him and wanting to pull Ning’er’s legs as a pillow, he stretched out his arm. “Lie on me and sleep. We’re out, so there’s no need to worry about so much.”
Although Pei Xiangjun had slept with Ye Jingtang before, this was the first time she had done it so openly. She hesitated for a moment before lying on her side with her back facing him and resting her head on his left arm, more than a foot away from him.
There wasn’t much space behind the curtain to begin with. Ye Jingtang had stretched out his arm for Third Lady to rest on his forearm. This was fine, but the two of them were not very comfortable. After some thought, he held Third Lady’s waist, turned her around to face him, hugged her shoulders with his left hand, and held her in his arms.
Pei Xiangjun’s body suddenly tensed up. She looked up and saw Ye Jingtang lying on his back without any intention of moving. She secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Because he wanted Third Lady to catch up on her sleep, Ye Jingtang didn’t have any distracting thoughts. But after lying like this for a while, he realized that something was wrong.
Ye Jingtang opened his eyes and turned his head to look. He saw a familiar and beautiful face lying on his shoulder, looking at him intently. It was unknown what she was thinking.
When she saw that he had opened his eyes, she hurriedly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.
Ye Jingtang felt that Third Lady was indeed very inexperienced in relationships. Not to mention Xiuhe, she probably couldn’t even compare to Yunli. He thought for a moment, lowered his head, and kissed her forehead. “Sleep well. Don’t let your imagination run wild.”
H 11
Pei Xiangjun’s forehead was kissed, and her shoulders trembled slightly. Before she could say anything, she felt her back being tapped twice.. Then sleepiness attacked her, and she fell asleep…
