Back in the valley, Ye Fei walked around slowly, and this time, since he had the idea of taking this place for himself, he observed very carefully.
The area of this valley was not very large, only about twenty square kilometers in circumference. The animals inside were all very small, and the largest was no bigger than a hare.
Moreover, they all looked extremely cute. Some were like rabbits but had tails that were not so short, and some were like squirrels but with tails that were not so big.
Anyway, they were all species he had never seen before. The most remarkable thing was that perhaps because they had never seen humans before, they were not afraid of Ye Fei at all. Many of them curiously gathered around him, looking at this huge intruder.
Ye Fei’s childlike innocence was aroused. He bent down, caught a small beast that looked like a squirrel, and put it on his shoulder. The small beast was not afraid at all. It stood on his shoulder, squeaking, seemingly very proud. The other small beasts seemed very envious and even jumped towards Ye Fei. Some of the more agile ones even jumped directly onto his shoulders.
With the company of these cute little things, Ye Fei felt even more cheerful. He ran around with them and soon came to the center of the valley, where there was a small lake that was less than a hundred meters long and wide. The water in the lake was very clear, and Ye Fei could even see the stones at the bottom of the lake.
After traveling through the cave twice, he inevitably got some dirt and the like on his body. Now, seeing such clear lake water, how could Ye Fei resist? He gently shooed away the small beasts jumping around on him, quickly took off his clothes, and plunged into the lake.
Although the weather here was not as hot as outside, the cool lake water still made Ye Fei feel refreshed both physically and mentally.
Moreover, he felt that since he got into the water, the true energy that circulated spontaneously in his body had accelerated by as much as twice.
Although this speed was still not as good as the effect of dual cultivation, it was not far behind.
Most importantly, with dual cultivation, he would benefit more, while his women would not get as many benefits. If they cultivated in this water, it would be even better than dual cultivation with him.
Ye Fei played in the water for a long time in a happy mood. It was not until it got dark that he came out of the lake. By then, those small beasts seemed to have all gone to rest, and the valley was extremely quiet.
When they set out in the morning, Liu Junyi had told him to come back every night to avoid her worry.
Now it was getting late, and Ye Fei dared not delay any longer. He quickly put on his clothes, returned to the ground through the cave he had entered, then identified the direction and rushed towards the temporary stronghold.
Since they had just started searching, they didn’t have to stay in the forest for the time being.
When Ye Fei returned to the stronghold, the members of the special forces had already had dinner and were chatting and joking in small groups outside.
When they saw him coming back, they all greeted him, but Liu Junyi was not in sight.
Ye Fei asked about Liu Junyi’s room and walked there quickly. He knocked gently on the door and called, "Auntie, I’m back."
The door opened quickly, and then a fiery, delicate body threw itself into his arms, and the arms holding him were trembling slightly.
Ye Fei was startled and hurriedly closed the door. He asked, "What’s wrong?"
"You scared me to death. You didn’t come back, and I thought something had happened to you." Liu Junyi’s voice was trembling slightly, and there was even a hint of crying in her voice. "Will you act with us from now on? I won’t let you leave again!"
Seeing that she, who was always strong, was so worried, Ye Fei was touched and also felt a bit sorry at the same time. He said softly, "I’m fine. I just found a fun place and came back late because I was having too much fun."
Liu Junyi had been waiting for Ye Fei to come back since the troops withdrew in the evening, but she waited and waited but couldn’t see him. Having just fallen in love, she couldn’t help but feel a bit anxious and regretful.

Although she knew clearly that with his strength, nothing should happen, who knew if there were even more abnormal things in this strange forest beside the enemy?
She didn’t breathe a sigh of relief until Ye Fei came back. But when she heard that he came back late because he was playing around, she couldn’t help but get angry. She pushed him away and said with a cold face, "Then you can keep playing outside. Why come back?"
Ye Fei stepped forward and hugged her again. He said in her ear, "Sorry, it’s all my fault. I made my dear wife worry. But the place I found is nice. Not only is the scenery charming, but it’s also very beneficial for us internal energy practitioners. I believe you’ll love that place once you go there. How about I take you there tomorrow?"
Liu Junyi was just angry that he had made her worry for so long, and it was because she was too worried that she was like this. So this anger came and went quickly.
When he said "dear wife," her anger immediately turned into joy, and she was also very curious about the place he mentioned.
She immediately said, "Okay, I’ll go with you to see it tomorrow. If it’s not as good as you said, hum, let’s see how I deal with you!"
This seemingly threatening sentence was coquettish.
Since this temporary stronghold was much smaller than the compound in the military area, Ye Fei naturally couldn’t stay in Liu Junyi’s room at night.
After a little affection, Ye Fei left her room and went to squeeze in with Zhang Qiang and the others.
Early the next morning, Liu Junyi called over several battalion commanders and told them that Ye Fei had discovered a suspicious place yesterday, but due to lack of experience, he couldn’t determine if there were any traces of the enemy, so she wanted to go with Ye Fei to have another look.
The several battalion commanders knew their strength and didn’t think much about it. They just told them to be careful.
Entering the forest, when they were out of sight of others, Ye Fei and Liu Junyi looked at each other and smiled. Ye Fei reached out and put his arm around her slender waist, and their speed suddenly increased as they dashed towards the place from yesterday.
This was the first time Liu Junyi experienced Ye Fei’s speed personally. Looking at the scenery passing by at high speed, even with her outstanding strength, she still felt a bit dizzy and couldn’t help but feel a bit horrified. But more than that, she was proud. Ye Fei’s strength being strong made her happier than her improvement.
With Ye Fei leading the way, the two quickly arrived at the place from yesterday. Ye Fei didn’t stop and walked straight towards the towering ancient tree.
But in Liu Junyi’s eyes, she saw the two of them quickly crashing into several trees standing side by side, and she couldn’t help but be startled. She subconsciously exclaimed, but after the exclamation, she found that they didn’t hit anything but passed through the middle of those ancient trees, and the scenery in front of her changed drastically.
Liu Junyi’s exclamation made Ye Fei stop. He asked, "What’s the matter?"
Liu Junyi looked around at the completely different scenery in amazement and asked instead, "Why has the scenery around here changed? And why didn’t we hit those big trees just now?"
Ye Fei said in surprise, "It hasn’t changed. It’s still the same here, and there are no big trees."
Liu Junyi was even more surprised and said, "Then let’s step back and try."
Ye Fei nodded and pulled her back a few steps. The scenery in Liu Junyi’s eyes changed again, and right in front of her were the several ancient trees they had just passed through. So she pointed at the trees and said, "Aren’t these the trees?"
Ye Fei’s heart skipped a beat, and he asked, "How many trees do you see here?"
