Chapter 14 Inquiry Unlike the delighted soldiers, although the captain of the personal guard was very grateful to Feng Xi, he still dared not let his guard down due to his professional instinct. If something happened to the princess due to his negligence, he would really be doomed to die."Thank you, little brother, for saving my life!" The captain of the personal guard clasped his fists and saluted Feng Xi, but his eyes never left the other's body. As long as there was the slightest mistake, he would counterattack immediately. Feng Xi also noticed that this person was wary of him and his body was tense at all times, so he stopped tactfully. Seeing Feng Xi stop, the middle-aged man relaxed a little, clasped his fists and said, "Little brother, you have a very high level of cultivation. I wonder if you could leave your name so that we can repay you for saving my life in the future." When Feng Xi heard this, he thought that an opportunity had come, and then he said calmly: "No, I just saw injustice and helped. If you really want to repay me, you might as well help me solve some of my doubts." The middle-aged man was stunned. He didn't expect that the young man would not play by the rules. But after thinking for a while, he said, "I don't know what it is, but we will not hide anything we know." Feng Xi did not keep the secret, but directly said: "This is my first time exploring the Great Wilderness. I didn't expect to get lost and lost the map with me. I wonder if you can show me a way out." "Ah!" The middle-aged man's brain paused for a moment. He thought of many possibilities, but he didn't think of the branch road. However, after thinking about it, he realized that the wilderness is indeed vast, and it is possible to get lost without a map to guide him. As his thoughts raced, the middle-aged man came to his senses and said, "We have extra maps here. If you trust me, I can give you a copy." Then the middle-aged man took out a piece of animal skin, handed it to a soldier, and ordered him to deliver it. "What a strong sense of vigilance!" Feng Xi said to himself and gave up the idea of blending in with this group of people. After all, with the vigilance of this middle-aged man, if he asked about something, he would probably be monitored by the other party all the time.
After taking the map from the soldier, Feng Xi nodded in thanks and prepared to leave first. He was just asking for information. He already had the map, so after leaving the wilderness, he could just go into a city. There was no need to stay with this group of people. But just as he was about to leave, a clear, pleasant, and softly sweet voice called him. "Brother, if you don't mind, you can go out with me. I'll have someone to take care of you along the way." The voice was very pleasant to hear, the most ethereal and clear voice Feng Xi had ever heard in his entire life. But what surprised him even more was that this shrewd girl actually took the initiative to keep him, which made him instantly wonder about the other party's purpose. Hearing the girl's words, not only Feng Xi, but even many soldiers looked at the beautiful woman in the field in disbelief. Is this still the reserved beauty famous in the Fire Country? She actually took the initiative to invite a man she had only met once. Only the middle-aged man in the field did not react when he saw the girl speaking. His eyes flickered twice, and then he remained silent. "Thank you very much, but I have already got the map, so I won't bother you anymore." Feng Xi declined politely. After seeing the other side of the girl just now, he was a little wary of whether the girl had any bad intentions and didn't want to be involved with her in too many things. "It's not a big deal. We are just about to leave the Great Wilderness, so we are on the way." The middle-aged man spoke at this time, changing his alert look. "This girl is obviously from an extraordinary background. She has a cave realm cultivator and dozens of blood-moving soldiers protecting her. I don't care about this bunch of scum, but who knows if there are other people protecting her in secret, let's test their bottom line first." After a heated discussion in Feng Xi's mind, he said, "I want to go to the Fire Country to gain some experience, but I don't know if I share the same path as you guys." After saying this, the middle-aged man smiled heartily and said, "We are from the Fire Country. This trip is to return to the Fire Country. It is really fate." "Fire Nation, if there is no similar force in the upper realm, then this should be the eight regions of the lower realm." Feng Xi actually prefers to believe that this is the lower realm, because the environment of heaven and earth is so bad, and it is not at all as active as the laws of the upper realm. Although he was thinking this in his heart, Feng Xi still wanted to confirm it. After considering his words, he said, "I didn't expect that you are all from the Fire Nation. As far as I know, the master of the Fire Nation has amazing cultivation and is one of the strongest people in the world. I just don't know if he has made further progress now." Feng Xi thought that what he said was quite skillful. He praised the Fire Emperor's cultivation without explicitly saying that the Fire Emperor's current cultivation level was that of a venerable or even a leader in the upper realm. As expected, after hearing Feng Xi praising his king, everyone present was in a good mood. The middle-aged man in armor smiled and said, "The Fire Emperor has already broken through the Venerable for many years. Now that I think about it, he has already stood at the peak of the Venerable. It can be said that he is one of the strongest in the world." "It's stable." Feng Xi already knew his current position. In the upper realm, the Venerable realm is just like little Karami. Even if he has faith in his own king, it is impossible for him to say the words of one of the strongest people in the world. Next, the group began to walk towards the wilderness. Along the way, Feng Xi was vaguely asking about things in the outside world. Now that he had determined his location, the next step was to determine the timeline. The middle-aged man was not confused. After all, the things Feng Xi asked were all irrelevant, just like the questions in daily conversation, such as which geniuses have emerged now, what big things have happened somewhere, etc. Among these pieces of information, one piece also let Feng Xi know the current time.
When the middle-aged man mentioned the geniuses in this world, he paid special attention to the Princess of the Fire Nation, the most beloved daughter of the Fire Emperor. The princess' name was Huo Linger. She was only four years old, but she could already lift a thousand-jin tripod. "Huo Linger is only four years old. She is about the same age as Shi Hao. It seems that Shi Hao is still a baby at this moment." Feng Xi felt relieved. What he feared most was that it would be too late. If Shi Hao had become so powerful that no one in the world dared to claim to be the master, then Feng Xi felt that there was no need for him to fight so hard. It would be okay to just lie down. Huo Lingxi's beautiful eyes stared at Feng Xi vaguely. She didn't know why, but she always felt that Feng Xi's behavior was not right. It seemed that he knew a little about the outside world, but everything was extremely empty, as if he had heard others talk about it but had never witnessed it herself. Feng Xi also seemed to feel that someone was watching him, and when he followed the gaze, he saw a beautiful girl with her head lowered, pretending to be timid. (End of this chapter)
