3588 Turn Back
“Are we resting here tonight? Do we need to find another place for her to rest?” Mo Chen asked, his eyes fell onto Xuanyuan Mo Ze.
Upon seeing this, Mo Chen said: “Then I’ll go and pick some branches.” Having said that, he left and went to the surrounding areas to look for branches.
“Don’t worry, I’m fine. The green lotus energy in my body can self-heal. I just need to rest for one night and I will be fine.” Feng Jiu said to Xuanyuan Mo Ze, then she lay in his arms and didn’t move. She found a more comfortable position and closed her eyes in preparation to sleep.
Xuanyuan Mo Ze took out his cloak and covered her body to block the howling wind of the night. He looked at the woman nestled in his arms and gently held her hand.
After Mo Chen picked some branches, he came back and lit a fire next to them. The burning flames dissipated the coldness of the night and made the surrounding air feel a little warmer.
He glanced at Feng Jiu, who was nestled in Xuanyuan Mo Ze’s arms, then he looked away. His eyes fell on the flames and his soft voice spoke: “What do you plan to do next?”
Xuanyuan Mo Ze looked down at Feng Jiu, who was breathing slowly, then he reached out and activated her sleeping point. He looked over at Mo Chen, who was looking at him in surprise, and said: “Help me look after her. I will be back before dawn.”
Upon hearing this, Mo Chen frowned: “You want to go back?”
“That’s right.”
Xuanyuan Mo Ze said in a calm voice: “Ah Jiu is right. It will be a pity to let them go tonight. I took her away earlier because I don’t want her to get hurt. Now that I have brought her here, and you are watching her, I can rest assured.”
He looked towards the sky, and a faint light glinted in his eyes: “We have already injured them tonight, it is indeed a good opportunity to strike again. Moreover, they wouldn’t expect me to go back again.”
“But she will be very worried if she finds out what you’re doing. Besides, their strength is not weak. If something happens to you if you go alone, how will I explain it to Feng Jiu?” Mo Chen didn’t agree. Even if what he said was not unreasonable, he was still unable to agree with his actions.
“Whether things work out or not, I will definitely be back before dawn.” He looked at Feng Jiu, who was sleeping soundly in his arms, and said: “I won’t let her worry.”
Whilst he spoke, he put his hand on the space bracelet on her wrist and called out in a deep voice: “Cloud Devouring, come out.”
As his spirit energy was transmitted into the space bracelet, Cloud Devouring in space was a little surprised when it heard Xuanyuan Mo Ze’s voice calling it, but it still slipped out of space and came outside.
“Hell’s Lord, what’s wrong?” Cloud Devouring, who was standing next to the fire, looked at him and asked.
“Lie here and let her lean against your body to keep her warm.” Xuanyuan Mo Ze glanced at Cloud Devouring and motioned for it to lie down next to Feng Jiu.
Upon hearing this, the corners of Cloud Devouring’s mouth twitched. It thought something had happened! It turned out that he wanted it to come out and keep its Master warm! It glanced at its sleeping Master and asked: “What’s wrong with Master?” Although it asked, it stayed still obediently.
“I have activated her sleeping point, she will wake up tomorrow.” Xuanyuan Mo Ze said, then he took out a thick blanket and spread it on the ground. After he put Feng Jiu on it, he told Cloud Devouring to lie closer to her to protect her with its body.
Mo Chen looked on and couldn’t help but smile, then he said with a hint of truth: “Actually, it doesn’t have to be so troublesome, she can also lie in my arms.”
