When she saw that the old man had asked her directly, Feng Jiu looked over then raised her eyebrows slightly: “You want to travel with us?”
“Actually, it’s just that we seem to be going the same way. So since that is the case, we can’t keep walking behind you and letting you face the danger in front.
The old man said with a smile still on his face. He appeared very courteous, but he didn’t seem to show much respect for Feng Jiu. After all, the other party was only a woman, and a pregnant woman who didn’t know her place at that.
“I see!” Feng Jiu responded casually and looked at the old man with a smile on her lips then said: “Since you feel uncomfortable walking behind us, then you can go in front of us!”
The old man was startled upon hearing this. A trace of astonishment flashed across his eyes, he obviously hadn’t expected her to say that.
The young men and women who were with him also looked at Feng Jiu in astonishment. In normal circumstances, if they had said something like that, shouldn’t they have agreed readily? After all, they had nearly one hundred people in their team, and all of them were top of the elite.
On the other hand, they had twenty mercenaries plus a few aristocratic young masters, two women and a pregnant woman in red. It would be one thing for this team to walk around outside, but it was a difficult task to be able to walk into the depths of the forest. Now they had extended an olive branch to them but they didn’t appreciate their kindness.
The man whose surname was Ouyang frowned slightly when he heard Feng Jiu’s words and felt that this woman only had beauty but no brains. At first, he felt that she had an extraordinary demeanour, so he didn’t exude his superior aura. Who did she think she was to speak like that?
His impression of her plummeted immediately. In the world of cultivating immortals, there was no lack of beautiful women. Even if this woman had a fairy-like appearance, but without wisdom and strength, she would only become a strong exponent’s plaything in the end.
They didn’t need to pay any attention to this kind of woman.
Therefore, he said to Jin Yifeng beside him: “Captain Jin, in that case, we will go ahead first.” Having said that, he led his team and left.
Jin Yifeng shook his head subtly as he watched them turn and leave. He could see that they were extremely unhappy with Madam Xuanyuan’s response. However, in his opinion, Madam Xuanyuan didn’t bear any ill intentions when she said those words, she was only speaking the facts.
Since they were embarrassed and uncomfortable following behind them, they could go ahead of them! The path didn’t belong to anyone, no one would say anything if they each went their own way.
However, after Patriarch Ouyang and the others heard Madam Xuanyuan’s words, they felt that she didn’t know what was good for her. That was because they didn’t know how strong the people around Madam Xuanyuan were. That night, Feng Jiu and the others rested at that spot. It was already night time when they had entered this area, so they rested that night and left the next morning. That way, they could all get a good rest and they could also avoid the potential dangers at night.
However, because Patriarch Ouyang and his family wanted to go ahead of them, they didn’t stop to rest that night but continued to move forward…
Perhaps it was because the other party had gone ahead of them that night, therefore, Feng Jiu and the others didn’t meet the Ouyang family again in the following days. A few days later, after they had entered the innermost area of the forest, Jin Yifeng looked at the traces left on the path and his heart couldn’t help but skip a beat. The drops of blood dripping from the weeds made him stop in his steps..
