Huanhuan returned to the tribe and told Xi Fei about Big Goody leaving with them.
Xi Fei said nothing and stared at her.
Huanhuan was puzzled. “Why are you looking at me?”
“Who did you say was coming with us to Rock City?” Xi Fei turned his head and tilted his ear toward her to hear better.
“It’s Shuang Yin.”
!!
Xi Fei confirmed again, “Am I hearing this correctly? This Shuang Yin you’re talking about should be Princess Shuang Yin from Rock City, right?”
Huanhuan nodded in affirmation.
“Oh my G.o.d!” Xi Fei suddenly slapped his thigh and was extremely excited. “The princess actually wants to come with us. Am I dreaming?!”
Huanhuan was shocked by his sudden action. She really wanted to ask if his leg didn’t hurt.
Xi Fei didn’t feel the pain at all. He was so excited that he could fly at any moment!
Huanhuan asked, “Are you agreeing to let her go with us?”
“Of course, I agree! I have to! I agree 10,000 times!” Xi Fei said quickly. “It’s a blessing to have the n.o.ble princess come with us. I’m more than happy!”
Huanhuan relaxed. “As long as you agree.”
After Xi Fei calmed down, he couldn’t help but be curious. “How did you meet Princess Shuang Yin? Why is she willing to lower herself to come with us?”
“She was in danger before. I saved her.”
Xi Fei’s eyes widened. “Are you her benefactor, then?!”
“I’m not really her benefactor. It was all in pa.s.sing. Don’t panic. Be careful not to scare Shuang Yin when she gets here.”
Xi Fei patted his chest and promised, “I’ll definitely serve the princess well and not let her get the slightest scare!”
The next morning, Huanhuan went to the camp with the caravan and found Shuang Yin.
Shuang Yin immediately got the beast soldiers to help pack.
She had very little luggage. She could carry them easily.
Little Bear couldn’t help but ask, “Your Highness, aren’t you going to the Snow region to look for His Majesty?”
Shuang Yin said, “Let’s not look for him anymore. He can go back alone anyway.”
Little Bear didn’t understand why she’d suddenly changed her mind, but she was a princess. She could say whatever she wanted. Although Little Bear was still puzzled, he didn’t pursue the matter.
As Shuang Yin was injured and could not travel, Huanhuan specially went to the nearby forest to catch a wild donkey. This donkey was quite big, but it was especially timid, especially in front of Huanhuan.
Huanhuan did not scare it much. It obediently bent its knees and lowered its head in submission.
There was a ball of white fur on the donkey’s forehead. It looked like a bun.
Huanhuan happily named it Meat Bun and let Shuang Yin ride on its back.
The group left the camp and headed for the rock mountain.
At the same time, the demon army stopped when they were about to reach the camp.
Sang Ye touched his cheek. It still hurt a little from the slap. He said, “You guys go back first. I still have something to deal with.”
Because he had always been cold, only Han Ying could talk to him in the entire demon race. The other beasts were in awe of him and did not dare to have too much contact with him.
Hearing his order, everyone was quite puzzled, but they didn’t ask anything and continued to retreat obediently.
Sang Ye returned to the beast camp alone.
He realized that Shuang Yin was no longer at the camp. After asking around, he quickly found out that she had returned to Rock City with the caravan.
Sang Ye hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he couldn’t resist the urge and quietly followed.
After a day of traveling, the caravan stayed in the mountains at night. There was a small stream beside them.
The merchants were used to living in the wild. They could make do even in the mountains, but Xi Fei did not want the princess to make do with them.
Xi Fei personally instructed the men to temporarily build a small makeshift tent with hides, branches, and leaves so that Shuang Yin could go in and rest alone.
Shuang Yin was originally unwilling. She was not used to such special treatment.
Huanhuan said slowly, “Go in. The tent has been set up. If you don’t go in, their efforts will be in vain.”
Shuang Yin had no choice but to go in and lie down to rest.
The tent was really small, only big enough for an adult beast. There was a thick animal hide blanket on the ground. She was comfortable inside. She wasn’t cold at all.
Huanhuan opened the curtain and squatted down to say to her, “Rest well. I’ll go nearby to see if there’s anything to eat.”
Shuang Yin quickly said, “I’ll go with you.”
Huanhuan waved her hand. “You’re still injured. Don’t move. I’ll be back soon.”
She lowered the curtain and got up to speak to Xi Fei, asking him to keep an eye on Shuang Yin.
Xi Fei quickly agreed. “No problem!”
Huanhuan entered the forest alone. Before long, she found a fruit tree filled with red sweet fruits.
She flew up the branch, picked many sweet fruits, and wrapped them in the leaves of the big tree.
After picking the fruits, Huanhuan caught another pheasant nearby.
The trip was fruitful. She carried the pheasant in one hand and the fruits in the other as she strode back.
But after taking a few steps, Huanhuan suddenly stopped.
She felt someone following her.
Huanhuan immediately turned around, but there was no one behind her.
Was it her imagination?
Huanhuan was a little suspicious, but at that moment, the evening breeze blew and she smelled something familiar.
It was a little wet and cold.
Beasts had very sensitive noses, not to mention that Huanhuan’s body was that of an extremely powerful dragon. She immediately recognized the smell.
She followed the scent until she came to a large tree that was two meters in diameter. She stopped.
Huanhuan stood in the shadows under the tree and asked softly, “Sang Ye, is that you?”
On the tree, Sang Ye’s figure was hidden in the leaves.
He was sitting on a branch with his back against the tree trunk. His long black hair hung down his face. On his pale and handsome face, his eyes were slightly lowered, casting a blurry shadow that covered the changes in his emotions.
Huanhuan looked around and didn’t see Sang Ye, but she still said very firmly, “I know you’re here.”
Sang Ye remained motionless.
His gaze pierced the foliage and landed accurately on Huanhuan. He seemed to be observing her or thinking about something.
Huanhuan said, “Why are you hiding? Can’t we talk in person?”
After a long time, Sang Ye said, “We have nothing to talk about.”
The voice came from above the tree.
Huanhuan immediately raised her head, but the leaves of this tree were too dense. Sang Ye’s figure was hidden, and she couldn’t see anything at all.
She wanted to fly up to him, but before she could move, she heard him say, “Don’t come up. I don’t want to see you.”
