Chapter 3735: Refuge (1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Feng Wu saw a lot of people on the road, and some of them didn’t seem to be doing well.
She tried to ask a few people about the situation, but they weren’t in the mood to talk, and their eyes were numb. All they told Feng Wu was that the war in Southern Yan was coming, and the soldiers at the front wouldn’t be able to hold their ground. Therefore, they were running as fast as they could toward the imperial capital.
Feng Wu was surprised. Southern Yan? Was it at war with Northern Yan? When was that? Why didn’t she know anything about it?
But these people didn’t know much either. They left in a hurry.
Feng Wu put a hand on her chest again.
“Your wounds are too severe. You need to find a place to treat them!” Little Phoenix had never looked so serious.
Feng Wu waved her hand, but blood rushed out of her throat, and she almost couldn’t hold it down.
“You have to treat your wounds now, or you’re going to die!” Little Phoenix coughed and spat out a mouthful of black blood.
Feng Wu asked, “Are you that badly injured?”
Little Phoenix rolled its eyes at her. “We were hit by that man together, and I’m more capable than you. I’m already in this state, which shows how badly you’ve been injured. You’re lucky to be able to walk out of the tomb alive.” Feng Wu only gave it a wry smile.
Little Phoenix was right. She needed to treat her wounds now. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to make it to Northern Yan.
Just then, Feng Wu saw a checkpoint up ahead.
A row of wooden fences blocked the road, and two people sat at tables by the side. Behind them were soldiers covered in heavy armor.
The two people sitting on the chairs were obviously capable cultivators. Right now, they were staring coldly at the person standing in front of them.
Men went through soon enough, but for the women, especially the teenage ones, the two cultivators kept a very close watch on them.
Were they doing it on purpose?
No, Feng Wu shook her head inwardly. She didn’t see any lewd look in their eyes. That was to say, they were on official business.
What kind of official business would make them so alarmed by teenage girls?
Feng Wu suddenly felt alarmed.
Little Phoenix frowned. “Something doesn’t feel right. I’ll go have a look.”
After that, Little Phoenix quietly flew toward them.
Feng Wu thought that it would be a while before Little Phoenix came back, but as it turned out, the bird came back in a split second and hid itself in Feng Wu’s arms.
Little Phoenix buried its head and talked to Feng Wu in its head.
“Let’s get out of here!”
Feng Wu stood at the back of the line. There were at least a few hundred people in front of her, so the people at the checkpoint didn’t notice her.
Feng Wu trusted Little Phoenix and knew that something dangerous was happening. That was why it was behaving this way.
While no one was looking, Feng Wu quickly backed away. She turned a corner and started running. She didn’t use any spiritual essence the whole time, for if there was any fluctuation…
The two junior Spiritual Overlords would notice her.
Right now, two junior Spiritual Overlords were enough to kill her.
Feng Wu spotted a valley and quickly headed for it.
The woods were dense, and no one would notice her once she hid inside.
Feng Wu asked Little Phoenix in a low voice when they were in a secret corner,
“What happened? What did you find?”
“Something’s wrong!” Little Phoenix didn’t want to be spotted either, so it lowered its voice.. “They’re looking for you! You’re a wanted person!”
