Feng Xingtian had not rested for the past few days. Yan Yi was curious about where his energy came from. In her arms, she secretly hid a sharp dagger to prevent Feng Xingtian from doing anything to her. She could only die to protect her innocence.
However, reality proved that although Feng Xingtian would tease her from time to time, he did not seem to be interested in her at all. When she was sleeping in the wild at night, every time Yan Yi woke up, she would find Feng Xingtian's coat draped over her body. Feng Xingtian, who was naked, was sleeping like a child. Every time this happened, Yan Yi would unconsciously let her guard down. This was the most relaxed day she had lived in the past ten years.
As they neared the edge of the desert, Feng Xingtian stole a camel from somewhere and filled it with two large bags of water and food. He let Yan Yi sit on it while he led the camel. The two of them officially entered the Desert of Death.
"Motherf * cker, what I fear the most in my life is the sea and the desert.”Feng Xingtian walked with difficulty under the scorching sun. After walking in the vast desert for a few days, there were only two lonely figures.
"Why?" Yan Yi, who was on the camel, felt that Feng Xingtian was like a mystery, interesting and difficult to solve.
"Can you have some common sense?" She said that she could do anything, but Feng Xingtian realized that she didn't know how to do anything. She was simply like an idiot who had never gone out before. She stared at the fragrant roasted rabbit meat and didn't dare to eat it.
"In the sea and the desert, people will be completely defeated by the gods. In these two places, no matter how capable you are, you can't escape the power of nature.”As usual, Feng Xingtian would still explain to her after scolding her.
" I understand. You're afraid." Yan Yi also laughed at him.
"Yes, I am afraid. For example, if you let a War God or Sword God stand in the middle of the tornado, I guarantee that he will be swept into his mother's stomach.”Feng Xingtian didn't mind her mocking. This wasn't something that would cause him to lose face.
"Idiot, even an ordinary person would be fine standing in the middle of a tornado.”Although Yan Yi was sometimes an idiot, she was very knowledgeable.
"Yes, I am stupid, but your young miss is smart.”
"Big Brother, can you not swear in the future?”After spending two days together, Yan Yi gradually revealed her cheerful nature.
"This question is a little complicated. For example, your sister-in-law likes it when I talk about it.”Feng Xingtian thought of Huo Wu's wildness and felt a sweet feeling in his heart.
"Sister-in-law must be very happy!" Yan Yi was also very curious about Huo Wu, who Feng Xingtian often talked about. Without waiting for Feng Xingtian to speak, she pointed into the distance," Big brother, look ahead. It's so beautiful!"”
Feng Xingtian followed her finger and looked into the distance. The expression on his face began to become complicated.
"F * ck!" Feng Xingtian cursed in a low voice. He pulled Yan Yi off the camel and grabbed the rope with one hand as he ran to the side desperately.
A few miles away from Fengxing Heaven, a few towering pillars were moving forward at high speed. The residents who often moved around the edge of the desert knew that this was a super tornado among tornadoes, commonly known as…the wrath of the gods, which meant that its power was like the heavenly tribulation when the gods were angry.
Feng Xingtian was smart enough not to run backward. Most people would subconsciously charge forward when they were being chased from behind, just like the cobra in the jungle. If you ran in a straight line, you wouldn't be able to outrun it. If you took a few more turns, it wouldn't be able to do anything. However, in a moment of crisis, not many people could do it.
Unfortunately, this wasn't an ordinary tornado. No matter how fast Feng Xingtian ran, he couldn't outrun the wind pillar. A few miles was covered in the blink of an eye. Seeing that the wind was about to blow up, Feng Xingtian instantly lay on the ground and hugged Yan Yi tightly. The camel beside him instinctively knelt beside them.
Yan Yi just felt her body tighten and was immediately thrown up by a huge force. In the midst of intense dizziness, the small hand that was desperately grabbing onto Feng Xingtian's clothes was powerless to let go. Before Yan Yi fainted, Feng Xingtian's figure appeared in her mind.
The moment Feng Xingtian entered the desert, Long Qingying and Ye Mei had another fight. This time, Ye Mei was defeated. The demonic beasts left tens of thousands of dead bodies on the battlefield, then retreated a hundred miles.
This way, the battle lines between the two sides were very wide. However, a bad rumor quietly spread among the Empire's army.
The patrolling soldiers in the military camp caught a demon spy near the camp in the early morning. The spy committed suicide on the spot. A blood letter was found on his body. It was very obscure and only had four words: Wang Jin, cooperate.
This immediately caused a panic in the army. No one knew who the message was for. The next day, there was a rumor that it was for Long Qingying.
Huang Ming immediately launched an investigation to find out the source of the rumor and declared that this was the enemy's childish plan to sow discord and that the army had to remain united.
As soon as the rumors were suppressed, new rumors started spreading. They said that Long Qingying had only sent out two dragon cavalry squads from the Central Army and the Fierce Tiger Army, while the Clear Shadow Army had only sent out one ten-thousand cavalry squad. It was because Long Qingying was saving her strength.
The rumor had an immediate effect. After all, it was the truth. Among the 400,000 soldiers who had come out of seclusion, the Central Army had more than 200,000 soldiers. Together with the 60,000 soldiers of the Fierce Tiger Army and the 80,000 new reserve soldiers, the Clear Shadow Army only had 10,000 cavalry. However, Long Qingying didn't say anything, and neither did Huang Ming.
"Qingying, give everyone a sign. If this goes on, you won't be able to explain yourself!”Long Qingying wasn't anxious, but Huang Ming was.
"That depends on whether Your Highness believes in Qingying or not.”Long Qingying looked at Huang Ming with a smile.
"What's the use of me believing you? The key is that it's not good for either of us if the rumors continue to spread in the army.”Huang Ming said.
"Your Highness, Qingying is tired. Now is the time to test Your Highness's true ability.”
Long Qingying's words stunned Huang Ming. He said in disbelief,""What…what do you mean?"
"Your Highness, have you forgotten? You're the commander this time!" Long Qingying smiled mischievously.
"Heavens, Qingying, you're still joking at a time like this!”Huang Ming finally understood.
Your Highness, you've really disappointed Qingying." Long Qingying's words hurt Huang Ming.
"Good, good. Since Qingying said so, this king will naturally show it to Qingying.”Huang Ming couldn't keep his face up anymore. He had changed a lot because of his intimate relationship with Long Qingying. But now, both his personality and his pride as a man had pushed him to do that.
"Then Qingying will wait for Your Highness's majesty.”The smile on Long Qingying's face didn't change.
" Haha, General, you're really smart. Human beings have been tricked. Long Qingying has been stripped of her power.”Kankula looked at Fire Dance excitedly.
"Discord is always the simplest and most effective strategy.”Ye Mei said emotionally.
"Without Long Qingying, it'll be much easier for us. It's time to kill the human beings.”
"No one knows what she's thinking.”Of course, Ye Mei wasn't that excited.
"Who cares what she thinks? She's retired now anyway.”Kankula said disapprovingly.
"Leonis is right." Ye Mei said.
"Mm, your princess should have arrived, right? You have to deal with the humans as soon as possible so that this king can go back for his wedding! Ever since I saw the princess's face, I've been thinking about her all the time!”Kankula's eyes lit up.
"Very soon." Sorrow flashed across Ye Mei's beautiful eyes.
As soon as the rumor died down, a piece of chilling news came. Long Qingying said she was sick and had temporarily retired. The commander-in-chief of the army was handed over to Marshal Huang Ming.
Rumors were rumors, but without Long Qingying, the soldiers didn't know how to fight the war. Besides, the allied army wasn't the Clear Shadow Legion. Although the soldiers were confused, they didn't dare to mutiny.
With the help of the left, middle, and right generals, Huang Ming launched an attack on the allied army of the human-beast hybrid army and won the battle. He killed nearly ten thousand human-beast hybrids, which made the whole army excited. It turned out that they could still win the battle without Long Qingying.
The news of victory was also spreading to the capital. Huang Wuji was probably the happiest one. However, he had told Huang Ming in the secret report that he had to listen to Long Qingying.
Huang Ming had a bitter feeling that he couldn't say. On one hand, he was naturally proud of his victory. On the other hand, he seemed to have gained some self-awareness these few days. When he stood among the three armies and saw the black mass of the Demon Beast Alliance Army, he felt dizzy. The last time they charged, there were still guards protecting him with their lives. He didn't have the chance to make a move.
Therefore, he wanted to listen to Long Qingying's advice, but she couldn't be seen at all. She was always in the rear, checking the military situation. He had no choice but to endure it. Fortunately, he had three generals who were experienced in battles to support him.
Feng Xingtian spat out a mouthful of sand and opened his eyes. He found that his entire body was buried under the sand except for his head. His entire body seemed to have fallen apart. He slowly moved his arms, revealing his two arms first. After confirming that there was no quicksand, he finally broke free.
Fortunately, Zhan Ge was still on his back. Feng Xingtian thought for a while and realized that two things were missing, Camel and Yan Yi.
The two were equally important. Feng Xingtian observed the trail of the sandstorm for a while and walked forward. As expected, he saw half of Yan Yi's body buried in the sand. He did not know if she was dead or alive.
He dug out Yan Yi. Fortunately, she was only unconscious. Feng Xingtian endured the pain and carried her, looking for traces of camels everywhere.
It seemed that the wind had carried them far away. Feng Xingtian searched for a while, but he could not find a single camel hair. Animals had their own ways to save their lives. The problem was that camels could walk out of the desert alive, but Feng Xingtian and his companion, who lacked food and water, were not so lucky.
Feng Xingtian could only look in one direction to see if he could find an oasis. He touched his chest and sadly found that other than the battle song and clothes that were tightly tied behind him, everything he had on him had been blown away.
In the desert, the sun seemed to always be hanging in the middle of the sky. Feng Xingtian walked for a while and found a shady sand dune to lie down. He could only wait for the evening to confirm his direction and the temperature to drop before leaving.
Yan Yi slowly woke up after being pinched by Feng Xingtian. She could vaguely see Feng Xingtian in front of her in her aching body.
"Little sister, look ahead. What's that? It's so beautiful!”Feng Xingtian raised his voice and imitated Yan Yi's tone just now. Thinking about it, he was angry and amused.
"Annoying." Yan Yi did not even have the strength to laugh.
"Sigh, you really followed the wrong person this time. Ever since I was born, I've never been lucky.”Feng Xingtian mocked himself.
"Are we going to die?" Yan Yi didn't panic like a normal woman.
"Strictly speaking, this sentence is true.”Feng Xingtian said seriously.
"Big brother, you really know how to joke." Yan Yi's eyes were a little unfocused, as if she was recalling something.
"Alright, do you think you can die just like that? If that's the case, I would have died a hundred times over.”Feng Xingtian casually patted Yan Yi's butt.
" Big Brother, you…" Yan Yi blushed.
"Oh, I forgot. I'm used to taking photos of your sister-in-law.”When he thought of Huo Wu, Feng Xingtian regained his strength.
"Big brother, I'm thirsty." Before encountering the tornado, Yan Yi had been enduring because Feng Xingtian had said that she would try her best to endure.
"Sleep well. When you wake up, you'll have water to drink.”Feng Xingtian said helplessly. His throat was also smoking.
"Yes!" Yan Yi was sleeping on Feng Xingtian's lap. She was not using any martial arts techniques, so she obviously could not take such a strong beating.
Feng Xingtian looked at her for a while before closing his eyes.
When Yan Yi felt the bone-piercing cold and woke up, she realized that she was being carried by Feng Xingtian. However, Feng Xingtian's pace had become slower.
"Big brother, put Yi 'er down. Yi' er will walk on her own.”Yan Yi's teeth were chattering as she spoke.
The climate in the desert could steam people during the day and freeze them into popsicles at night. Their tents were placed on camels.
"It's good to come down and take a walk. It'll warm you up, but you'll be hungry soon.”Feng Xingtian put her down and casually took off his shirt to put it over her body. This way, his bare upper body, which was carrying Zhan Ge, was exposed in the cold desert.
" Big brother…put it on!..." Yan Yi was touched.
"Hehe, as long as my heart is still warm, even if you defeat me, no one can make me submit! Not in the desert! Nature is even worse!" Feng Xingtian grabbed Yan Yi's small hand and placed it on his chest as if he was swearing to the desert.
Yan Yi did not speak for a long time. She felt Feng Xingtian's strong heartbeat, and her heart began to beat inexplicably.
" Big Brother…why are you so good to Yi 'er…" After a long time, Yan Yi withdrew her small hand and whispered.
"Since I brought you here, I have to take responsibility for you.”Feng Xingtian naturally said,"Let's go. The north is our hope!"”He remembered that the Orcs 'gathering place on the map was deep in the northern desert.
The Desert of Death was indeed the Desert of Death. They walked until dawn, and all they saw was sand. They didn't even see a single plant. Feng Xingtian used his battle song to dig two meters deep, exposing the dry desert. There was no sign of moisture at all.
Yan Yi really couldn't walk anymore. The cold and tired feeling and the swelling pain all over her body tortured her. However, with Feng Xingtian's support, they rested during the day and walked in the evening. They persisted for two days.
"Big brother, don't worry about Yi 'er. Yi' er really can't walk anymore.”Yan Yan leaned into Feng Xingtian's embrace and said weakly.
"What a silly child." Feng Xingtian was a little surprised. He thought that Yan Yi would definitely say not to leave her behind. He did not expect that under such a weak appearance, there was a kind heart that was always thinking about others.
"Big brother, Yi 'er is so happy to meet big brother.”Yan Yi could barely speak.
"Me too…Yi 'er, we're saved, haha!”Feng Xingtian inadvertently raised his head to take a look, and his haggard face immediately revealed an ecstatic expression.
Yan Yi followed his gaze and screamed. In the distance, a one-meter-long rattlesnake was staring at them like a tiger eyeing its prey.
"I thought there was nothing alive in the Desert of Death.”Feng Xingtian grabbed the warsong beside him and comforted the frightened Yan Yi. He slowly stood up and walked towards the rattlesnake.
"I'm sorry, Brother Snake. If I die, I'll definitely let you eat it.”Almost as soon as Feng Xingtian finished speaking, Rattlesnake and him launched an attack at the same time.
Yan Yi closed her eyes in fear. When she opened her eyes, she saw Feng Xingtian approaching her with a broken rattlesnake. She was just about to shout out no, but Feng Xingtian's actions frightened her so much that she could no longer make a sound.
Feng Xingtian opened his mouth and bit half of the snake's body, greedily sucking the blood inside. He even brought the other part in front of Yan Yi.
Yan Yi blacked out and finally fainted.
When Yan Yi woke up again, she found that the sun was still shining in the sky. She was still leaning on Feng Xingtian's arms. She shivered and subconsciously looked to the side, but there was nothing.
"Big brother…Snake…Where's the snake?" Yan Yi felt a sense of danger.
"I ate it." Feng Xingtian said in a relaxed manner.
"Really? Then…what about me?" Yan Yi remembered that Feng Xingtian had thrown half of the snake body to her in the end.
"You, you don't like it, so of course I didn't give it to you.”Feng Xingtian didn't look like he was lying to her.
Yan Yi looked at the corner of Feng Xingtian's mouth. There seemed to be a little blood left. Suddenly, something seemed to be rolling in her empty stomach. She felt disgusted and bent forward to retch.
A lump of something rushed up her throat. Yan Yi understood everything. Feng Xingtian must have fed her snake meat.
Just as the food she had just eaten was about to surge up, Feng Xingtian suddenly hugged her and covered her mouth tightly with both hands.
" Be good, Yi 'er, be good. Be good. Swallow it back. Be good, be good…" Feng Xingtian hurriedly and gently whispered into Yan Yi's ear. If Yan Yi vomited now, even God would not be able to save her. She would be dehydrated and exhausted. In less than five minutes, she would die.
"Woo…"
Yan Yi's mouth was covered by Feng Xingtian, and she swallowed everything back down. She screamed at the top of her lungs, and two streaks of tears rolled down her shriveled face. This was a declaration of war against death, a struggle against life, and a cry for survival!
" Yi 'er, listen to me. Don't cry, don't cry…" Feng Xingtian saw that she was no longer retching, so he raised his hand to hug her and closed his eyes.
After a long time, Yan Yi fell asleep in his arms. Feng Xingtian looked into the distance, but his eyes flashed with even more determination.
