Three days pa.s.sed and the Fourth Princess still hadn’t woke.
Chen Feng slightly frowned and tried to detect her body with a bit of strength. He found that the injury inside her body had almost recovered and her internal organs had been completely healed. However, she had not woken up yet, which made Chen Feng very doubtful. He muttered, "It’s strange that her injury has almost healed, but why hasn’t she woke up yet? Did the explosion hurt her soul? But I checked her soul, and it wasn’t hurt."
With a heavy sigh, Chen Feng condensed some Ling force to the fingertip he’d cut open to pa.s.s the vitality to the Fourth Princess.
After a while, he suddenly found that the beauty in his arms showed a faint blush on her face, even though she still wasn’t awake. He could not help wondering, So strange! Her complexion has fully recovered, but she unexpectedly hasn’t regained consciousness yet. Is it possible that my vitality is not enough?
No sooner had he started to continue feeding her the vitality than the Fourth Princess in his arms suddenly jumped up and laughed wildly.
Chen Feng was stunned and asked, "When did you regain consciousness?"
"Well?" It was at this moment that the Fourth Princess realized her sudden move had exposed her consciousness. However, she rolled her eyes and supported her head with her hands, saying gently, “Where am I? What happened to me?"
Chen Feng frowned and said stealthily, "Did she just regain consciousness? But how come she moved so suddenly? And how can she laugh after waking up?" He asked louder, "What are you laughing at? Don"t fool me. When did you wake up?"
The Fourth Princess pouted her lips and said, “Hey, how can you talk to me like that? I am the Fourth Princess of the Empire. I’ll have the final say here in the future."
Chen Feng donned a cold expression; he didn’t expect the Fourth Princess to be so bossy. She seemed to notice the unhappiness on his face, then she smiled and said, "Of course, if it weren"t for you, I would have been killed here. Well! It’s bad to mention death here. I struggled so hard to survive, but of course, I would thank you very much. In order to thank you for your kindness these days, I decided to entrust my security to you here. Although your strength is a little worse, I still agree to accept you as my bodyguard. Although you’re not so handsome . . . you look just okay,” she continued. "As for your ident.i.ty, it’s not shameful to be the third son of the Chen family.”
Chen Feng opened his eyes widely beside her. When the words uttered by the Fourth Princess echoed in his mind, he whispered, "Am I really so disappointing?"
"It’s lucky that you are not so disappointing. At least, you’re better than the guys from the Murong family and Baili family. You should feel lucky to act as my bodyguard,” the Fourth Princess said with a smile.
Chen Feng shook his head and turned around to head for the exit of the Shangmen Gate since he found she had completely recovered.
The Fourth Princess quickly followed up and shouted, "Wait for me! You are my bodyguard now. How can you behave like that?"
Thinking about the current situation, she suddenly recalled the horrible King of Death before she lost consciousness. However, it seemed to have disappeared at this moment and neither of them were hurt at all. So, she asked doubtfully, "Where is the King of Death? Did another master pa.s.sing by save us?"
Then she shook her head. If another master appeared in the Shangmen Gate, he must have had the capability to help her recover. It would have been unnecessary for Chen Feng to feed her vitality every day.
But it was the fact that the King of Death had disappeared. With a trace of doubt entangled in her mind, she was more curious about Chen Feng.
Chen Feng was unwilling to reveal anything about this matter. Even though the Fourth Princess kept asking all the way, he only pretended not to hear and walked straight ahead.
"Well, it’s all right if you don"t want to talk about it, but you should tell me where you are going now," said the Fourth Princess, Tang Xiaoxiao.
Chen Feng looked back at the Fourth Princess and said, "Her Royal Highness, we are not on the mainland now and I don"t have to tell you everything. The most important thing for us now is to leave here. If you keep complaining like that, you may bring more unexpected troubles. Don"t blame me for not warning you then."
"Well, I got it. Are you going to leave the Shangmen Gate for the ancient battlefield?"
"Not now. I am afraid I don’t have enough strength in the ancient battlefield. Before that, I must cross the other six gates. If you want to go to the ancient battlefield, I can send you out," Chen Feng said.
"It’s unnecessary for you to bother. I have suddenly decided that I also want to have a look at the other gates. I remember that you set out alone in advance. I didn"t expect that you knew the existence of other gates here. It’s quite strange,” said the Fourth Princess.
"Why do you feel it so strange? The elders of the family had introduced the situation here to me before my departure,” Chen Feng answered casually. But the Fourth Princess would never feel doubtful naturally because he was the third son of the Chen family and it wasn’t surprising for him to know all about it.
Chen Feng suddenly asked, "When we entered here together, do you know in which gates they were scattered?"
"How can I know that? It was quite random that we entered the eight gates. I didn"t expect that I was so unlucky to enter the Shangmen Gate. Well, you are just as unlucky as me."
Chen Feng smiled bitterly. The Fourth Princess was always lively through and through, and it seemed that she had got away from her depression. When arriving at the edge of the Shangmen Gate, Chen Feng said, "I’m going to cross the pa.s.sage among the eight gates to have a look in the other gates. Although you cannot cross it, I can send you away to the ancient battlefield now."
The Fourth Princess obviously had some understanding of the eight gates. She knew that there was strong energy in the pa.s.sage of each gate that couldn’t be crossed. So only one person could leave for the ancient battlefield.
Chen Feng waved his hand to release a gust of force, and then the figure of the Fourth Princess suddenly disappeared into the pa.s.sage. Before her departure, her lively voice could still be heard, saying, “Remember, you are my bodyguard and you must come to the ancient battlefield to protect me."
Chen Feng smiled reluctantly and flashed into the pa.s.sage beside him to cross into the next gate.
The crossing was much faster this time. Moreover, Chen Feng himself was also very fast. It took only three days for him to cross the five gates. During the process, he had absorbed various forces into his body for constant cultivation.
When Chen Feng finally appeared in the Shengmen Gate, his strength had been improved to the peak of the Ling shape level.
Within just three days, he could make an achievement that might cost other pract.i.tioners years or even decades. The Unknown Mysterious Martial Art in his body was also changing gradually. A memory of that art came to his mind. Although these memories were still very confusing, the vastness of the martial art had truly attracted all his attention.
