Moonsong's condition and Sophie's weird.
Lionheart Emperor Oro suggested that Xia Fei start with the Exiled Grounds, recruiting soldiers and buying horses, planning before making a move. After some consideration, Xia Fei accepted this plan.
With Xia Fei's current strength, it was practically impossible for him to take down Yuhua and the organization behind him that had the backing of a Law Overlord. He needed information from the Law Realm and enough manpower, and all of this had to be obtained from the Exiled Grounds. After all, that was an existence independent of the two peak races, and it was the habitat of many nameless Law Adepts.
After discussing the details of his trip to the Exiled Grounds with Oro, Xia Fei activated the Fig Corporation's Precision 100 Model Spatial Compass. This compass was not registered, so it would not be tracked when it contacted the outside world.
Xia Fei dialed the number Chen Dong had left behind.
Beep beep beep …
A few seconds later, a lady appeared on the screen. She had a petite but voluptuous figure. Her face was pure, and there was a seductive charm between her brows. This was Moon Song.
At that very moment, Moon Song was sitting on the bed, chewing on a half-eaten cucumber. Judging from the decorations behind her, the environment was pretty good. A large tapestry hung on the wall, and the bed was covered with expensive ice silk fabric.
It was nighttime. Moon Song was wearing a thin nightgown, and her alluring figure could be vaguely seen. She sat cross-legged barefoot, looking very carefree.
Moon Song was slightly taken aback when she saw Xia Fei. Half a piece of cucumber was stuck in her mouth, and her throat moved slightly. Xia Fei could not help but have a very bad feeling about this.
With a smile, Xia Fei revealed a harmless expression and softly said, "Moon Song."
"You're not dead yet!" Moon Song jumped up from the bed and pointed at Xia Fei with half a cucumber still dripping with saliva.
Xia Fei helplessly shook his head when he saw how crazy Moon Song was behaving. Weve known each other for a while. Do you really wish for me to die?
Moon Song snorted coldly and sat back down on the bed. As she chewed on her cucumber, she said, What does your death have to do with me? Say it! How did you find me? Did you follow me secretly? I say, recently I always feel that someone is watching me from behind. Actually, it's very easy for you to find me. Why do you need to learn those lowly tricks of stalking from those stinking hooligans? "
Moon Song seemed to be feeling pretty good about herself. Xia Fei shrugged. Chen Dong was the one who gave me your number.
Moon Song was slightly disappointed. She said hatefully, "That damned Crazy Shen. He gave my number everywhere without my permission."
Although she was cursing furiously, her heart was thumping wildly. She even took the time to comb her long hair.
"Why are you looking for me? You've stirred up quite a bit of trouble this time. If you want to die, then die far away. Don't drag me down with you, "Moon Song said, feigning indifference.
Xia Fei furrowed his eyebrows, feeling that he was being rather unscrupulous. He did not have much contact with Moon Song, so it did not make sense for him to seek her out when he needed her help.
"Oh, nothing much. I just wanted to see if you were okay."
Moon Song felt a surge of warmth in her heart. That simple sentence made her jump with joy.
With that said, Xia Fei was about to end the conversation when Moon Song hurriedly reached out to stop him.
"Hi! I say, how could you just leave like that? It's not like I'm chasing you away. Since you've already contacted me, why don't you chat a little longer? Why don't you just tell me what you're looking for? If I'm in a good mood, I might really help you out. "Moon Song shook her head.
This change in attitude was truly quick. Xia Fei chuckled. "Put on your shirt first before we talk."
Moon Song looked down and realized that she had made too much of a movement when she jumped up. Two of the buttons on her pajamas were undone, revealing a pair of white bunnies that looked like they were about to pop out.
Her face flushed red. Moon Song gritted her teeth and raised her head. "Isn't that normal? You can look a little longer if you want. Let me know if it's not enough, and I'll let you feast your eyes."
Moon Song's carefree personality made Xia Fei very helpless. He could only intentionally not look at those white bunnies. Unfortunately, the allure of spring was too tempting for mere mortals to resist. Xia Fei could not help but feel his heartbeat quicken.
"Did something happen to me in the Yu family?"
Moon Song hugged her legs and laughed. "Something happened? You sure are low-key. Everyone in the circle knows about it, and you're still saying it's a small matter? "
"Whatever you say." Xia Fei knew that Moon Song was an unreasonable person, so he did not argue too much. "I urgently need to know what's going on in the Law Realm. You're the only person I know and trust, so I can only look for you now."
'Trust?'
Moon Song was slightly taken aback, but her expression soon became a lot better. She quietly buttoned up her pajamas, no longer smiling as before. Instead, she put on a serious look.
"Speak. What do you want to know?"
Xia Fei said, "If I'm not mistaken, the Yu family should be under Yu Jin's management, and Yu Hua will use this matter to return to the family. It won't be long before Yu Jin hands over the position of the family patriarch to Yu Hua, using the excuse that he isn't capable enough or that his cultivation isn't high enough. I want you to help me keep an eye on the Yu family and inform me immediately if anything happens."
Moon Song chuckled. "You're right. I happen to know about the Yu family."
With that said, she pulled out the data from her terminal and sent it to Xia Fei. Xia Fei could not help but be shocked when he received the data. It turned out that Moon Song had compiled every move of the Yu family into a book, detailing which were rumors and which had been verified. It turned out that Moon Song had been keeping an eye on the Yu family ever since Xia Fei's incident, and the reason was naturally because of him.
Xia Fei was inexplicably touched. He did not know how to thank her.
"This is the information so far. I'll send it to you every once in a while. Why is this compass saying that you're anonymous? How am I supposed to contact you without a number? "Moon Song said nonchalantly, as if everything she did was very natural and not deliberate at all.
"The compass isn't registered, so you won't be able to find me unless I contact you," Xia Fei said.
Moon Song laughed heartily. "Looks like you're still as mysterious as ever. Actually, I haven't changed, either."
She stared at Xia Fei. Moon Song seemed to be implying something else, so Xia Fei hurriedly changed the topic. It was very difficult to enjoy the grace of a beauty. Xia Fei knew very well what Moon Song was thinking, but unfortunately, he could not promise anything.
"I understand what you're saying. Contact me every once in a while, preferably at night when it's quiet."
Xia Fei nodded. "Understood. You just need to help me collect rumors and information. Don't put yourself in danger."
"What? You can't bear to? "Moon Song asked mischievously.
After a moment of silence, Xia Fei nodded. "I don't have many friends to begin with. I can't bear to part with any of them."
"Tsk!" Moon Song had a look of disdain on her face, but her heart was pounding like a rabbit.
"How will you repay me when you're done?"
"What do you think?"
"I say that you have to promise me something. You're not allowed to refuse, and you're not allowed to ask what it is." Moon Song conjured a huge cucumber out of thin air and took a bite.
"Sure."
"Remember what you said! If you go back on your word, I'll castrate you! " Moon Song's beautiful eyes widened as she stared at Xia Fei maliciously. She made a cutting gesture, her fiery character unmistakably on full display.
Xia Fei suddenly shuddered, a strange premonition rising in his heart.
…
Turning off the screen, Xia Fei wiped the sweat off his forehead. Moon Song's personality was truly unpredictable. Now that things had come to this, he could only pray that her request would not be too difficult. If she wanted him to commit murder or arson, he could only consider himself lucky. Given Moon Song's eccentricities, Xia Fei believed that there was nothing she would not dare to do.
Xia Fei let his imagination run wild as he walked out the door and arrived at Sentinel Goddess Sophie's room. Sophie was now used to using her more human-like body, and she was also staying not far from Xia Fei.
Surprisingly, Sophie did not want to return Phantom to Xia Fei, and Phantom himself was more than willing to keep it.
Xia Fei was very puzzled. How did the two of them become so familiar with each other?
"Just what secret are the two of you up to? Why aren't you letting me know? "Xia Fei asked curiously.
Phantom did not know what to say, but it was the Sentinel Goddess Sophie who stood up and sincerely said, "Xia Fei, it's not that we're hiding this from you, but this matter is truly of great importance, and the future is uncertain. Once we succeed, I'll personally explain everything to you, but until then, just let us be."
If it were Phantom who had said this, Xia Fei would definitely have gotten to the bottom of it, but Sophie had always been very sincere, so Xia Fei was too embarrassed to ask. After thinking about it, it was not too much of a problem to not bring Phantom along on this trip to the Exiled Grounds. It was just that Xia Fei was not used to not having him come up with bad ideas.
On the way to Avrils, Xia Fei found it more and more strange the more he thought about it. There were several machines in Sophie's room, as well as several concealed blueprints. From the corners that could be seen, they seemed to be some sort of mechanical design.
"Could Phantom and Sophie be designing something? Sophie is the Sentinel Goddess, and her knowledge is comparable to the sea, but Phantom isn't skilled in machines, right? "Xia Fei muttered to himself.
Xia Fei shook his head and decided not to think about it anymore.
…
Avrils had long since gotten used to Xia Fei going out every once in a while. She was very worried, but she maintained a sweet smile on her face, telling Xia Fei not to worry about her and to focus on what he was doing. As for where Xia Fei was going or when he would be back, she did not say a word.
Packing his luggage, Xia Fei left with Furball and the old demon lord. He left Lil Pea with Avrils and Phantom with Sophie. It was much quieter than the bustling atmosphere of the past.
* Whoosh ~ *
The spatial compass sent Xia Fei to the Exiled Grounds, several billion lightyears away. It only took a second. Xia Fei was in a mountain range, with clouds and mist shrouding the mountains. Tall trees towered into the sky, hiding a cold demonic aura.
Lionheart Emperor Oro looked around with an excited look on his face.
"The Exiled Grounds. It's been a very, very long time since I've been here."
Xia Fei pursed his lips, thinking, 'Who knows how many tens of thousands of years you've been imprisoned in the Eternal Ice Plains, yet you've never been here before.'
"If we follow the valley straight ahead, we'll reach a small city in the Exiled Grounds. Let's first settle down there and get some information about this part of space before heading to the important cities," Oro said.
"What's the name of this city?"
"It doesn't have a name."
"Is the city well-informed?"
"Of course. Though it's a small city, it's also the most important slave market in the Exiled Grounds. Those slave traders travel everywhere, so it's only natural that they're well-informed. There's nothing better than getting some information from them. After all, merchants value profit, and as long as there's money, there'll be information, making it easier to deal with them."
Xia Fei nodded and quickly made his way to his first stop in the Exiled Grounds.
PS: I'm so tired that I don't have a shred of energy left. I still have to take a train home tomorrow. It's the spring festival season, and just thinking about it makes Jiu 'er's head hurt. There's nothing I can do about it. It's the spring festival, and I can't possibly let my elderly parents go out to visit friends and relatives. Jiu' er has to do it myself.
Let me take a leave of absence. Jiu 'er will be resting tomorrow and will resume updating the day after tomorrow.
It's been several months since Jiu 'er last updated, and I'm truly too tired. I'm not feeling well, so I hope everyone understands.
