Chapter 845: Chapter 666: How Much Do You Miss Me? (3)
The representative of the Secret Place answered, "According to our spy’s information, it was half a month ago, outside the third city of the Ghost Snake Clan’s territory in Starfield Forest... and then it seemed to disappear without a trace."
"This is all we have been able to find for now. We will continue to follow up, and if there is any new information, we will notify you immediately."
"If you want to find him, you could try your luck there."
"Alright, thank you, this information is very helpful to me!" Now that there was news about Xue Yinzhou, Shen Tang could not sit still and planned to set off as soon as possible to find him.
She continued to ask, "By the way, is there any news about the other two people I asked you to find?"
The representative shook his head, "I’m sorry, the Star Veil Secret Place is not omnipotent, there are places beyond the reach of our spies. But we will continue to investigate, and any news will be conveyed to you at the earliest."
"...I understand, please continue to help me find them, there will be a significant reward if you do." The little bit of joy Shen Tang felt just rose and then sank back down.
The Star Veil Secret Place is already the most powerful underground organization for intelligence; they could even dig up news about Xue Yinzhou, yet there was no information about Lu Xiao and Liu Ye.
This can only mean that their locations are beyond even the reach of the spies of the Star Veil Secret Place.
It might even be...
No, it won’t be!
Shen Tang shook her head, dismissing the thought from her mind.
She believed in her Beast Husband, and she was sure they would reunite; it was just a matter of time.
After leaving the Star Veil Secret Place, Shen Tang was silent all the way.
Back at the hotel, it was as though she came back to herself and said softly to Shen Li, "Li, I have to leave, go to the Ghost Snake Clan."
Shen Li had long known that this day would come; he just didn’t expect them to separate after only a few days together.
"You won’t wait a few more days? Maybe the Secret Place will have new information."
Shen Tang shook her head, "Since there is news of Yin Zhou, I can’t stay another day... I want to find him as soon as possible."
Shen Li’s eyes were full of reluctance and concern, "When do you plan to leave?"
"I... I want to leave today."
Shen Li’s Adam’s apple moved, he was silent for a moment, as if making a decision, "Then I..."
Shen Tang knew what he wanted to say, took his hand and shook her head, raised her delicate little face, her clear and charming eyes looking at him, lightly smiled, "Don’t worry about me, I know what I’m doing! You go finish your things first, after they’re done, we will meet again."
Compared to the Hand of Creation, they were already in a weak position. Sometimes acting separately is more likely to achieve their goals.
Shen Li was still worried about her safety, how could he be assured letting her go to such a distant place alone? But he knew, nothing could stop her from doing what she wanted, she had her pride and persistence.
"I know my Xiao Tang’er is smart and strong, doesn’t need protection at all times, but be careful, as soon as I’m done here, I will come find you immediately." Shen Li rubbed her hair, speaking gently.
"You have to be careful too, we will keep in touch at all times."
Although the light computer on the Beast World Continent couldn’t be used, the light computer bracelet here allowed communications between zones.
The two had already added each other as friends, they could contact directly afterwards.
"By the way, Li, this is for you."
Shen Tang took out a small doll from her space, upon closer look, it looked similar to Jia Lan’s Witchcraft Doll; she had indeed studied that doll and created a miniature Advanced Puppet in her own likeness.
After infusing it with a bit of spiritual power, she could use it to obtain a second perspective and communicate with Shen Li, as if staying beside him.
Even though this was another farewell, Shen Tang pretended to be relaxed, softly humming, "Don’t think I don’t know about those flirtatious debts of yours, the one who tried to assassinate me last time was the lady of the Divine Fox Clan, wasn’t she? From now on, let my little doll accompany you, let’s see if you’ll still dare to invite bad romances!"
Shen Li accepted the palm-sized doll, playing with it with his long, cold white fingers, his narrow fox eyes full of laughter, "Alright, then Xiao Tang’er should supervise me well, maybe one day I’ll be abducted."
"Hmph, if you dare run, I’ll chain your feet and tether you beside my bed, let’s see how you run!" Shen Tang threatened, pretending to be fierce.
Shen Li’s eyes darkened, "Oh? Seriously?"
"..." How does this dog man seem kind of excited!
Shen Tang coughed softly, "Just kidding! If you dare run off with someone else, I will not want you anymore and find a more handsome one!"
"Then you probably won’t find one." Shen Li chuckled lightly and ceased teasing her.
He took one step forward, wrapped Shen Tang tightly in his arms, lowered his head to plant a kiss on her forehead, his voice low and affectionate, "It’s getting late, go, wait for me to come find you."
Shen Li escorted her personally to the city gate.
After a brief reunion, it was eventually time to say goodbye.
Just as Shen Tang was about to step out through the city gate, she suddenly turned around, ran back to Shen Li, threw herself into his arms, hooked his neck down, stood on tiptoe, and kissed his lips.
This time, it was a kiss initiated by the female, passionate and lingering, making Shen Li’s breath catch, as if his mind was being drawn in.
He hugged her tighter, deepening the kiss.
Such an uninhibited kiss in front of a public crowd drew the attention of passersby. But when the man lifted his narrow red eyes and coldly swept over, those passersby immediately felt a chill run down their backs, lowered their heads, and quickly walked away, not daring to look again.
Of course, Shen Tang couldn’t see any of this.
"Be good, go on." Shen Li calmed his breath and heartbeat, gently released Shen Tang, and stepped back.
He feared if he didn’t let go, he really couldn’t bear to let her leave.
Shen Tang’s cheeks flushed, a bit embarrassed, yet she couldn’t bear to leave Shen Li, and missed him so much.
The depth of emotion made it hard to control.
"Goodbye, Li."
She looked deeply at him, turned, and left.
There were worries, but more so, there was trust.
She knew he would handle everything and then return to her side.
Shen Li stood at the city gate like a stone, unmoving for a long time, until her figure completely disappeared from view, then seemed to come back to himself, turning and leaving.
The warmth on his face faded, leaving only a cool composure.
He had to prepare for the competition in half a month.
Resolving matters here quickly, he could then go to meet her.
