I Don't Know Martial Art Chapter 133

Chapter 133 - The Abyss

They left the square and returned to the tent. The moment they stepped into the tent, Xiang Yun's body staggered, almost falling to the ground. Fortunately, Lin Wan'er had managed to support him in time.

"Your Highness, what happened to you?" Lin Wan'er asked anxiously.

Xiang Yun waved his hand, smiling at Lin Wan'er with his pale face.

"Wan-Er, are you finally going to listen to me?"

Hearing this, Lin Wan'er was slightly startled. She had wanted to turn her head away, but seeing Xiang Yun's pale face, she felt a pang in her heart and hurriedly said with concern.

"Your Highness, how are you feeling right now? Are you feeling uncomfortable? I'll go find Housekeeper Zhang and the others and show you."

Xiang Yun shook his head, "It's alright, Wan'er. I've already consumed a healing pill, so I just need to rest for a while."

With the support of Lin Wan'er, Xiang Yun walked step by step back to the camp's bench. Xiang Yun did not immediately recuperate and meditate, but rather let Liu Hong enter the camp instead.

"Mr. Liu, bring some people to the north side of the hunting grounds to the canyon. Find the two Golden Apes inside the canyon!"

Liu Hong was puzzled when he heard this, "Your Highness, are we going to take the Cloud Beast Crystals from within their bodies?"

Many people hunted cloud beasts for the sake of obtaining them. The higher the grade of the cloud beast, the greater the energy it contained, and the more valuable it was.

Liu Hong thought, if Xiang Yun wants the Cloud Beast Crystal of the Black Gold Ape, he could just directly take it out.

However, Xiang Yun shook his head. With a slightly heavy expression, he said, "Burrow them in the cave and then seal that cave up."

"Ah?" Liu Hong looked at Xiang Yun with some surprise when he heard this. From what he heard, it seemed as though Xiang Yun wanted to bury these two Golden Crow Apes.

"Your Highness, this …" Liu Hong wanted to confirm something, but Xiang Yun had already waved his hand, gesturing for him to do so.

Liu Hong's guess was right. Xiang Yun did indeed want to bury the two Golden Crow Apes.

Even though Xiang Yun and Fatty Niu had almost been killed by the male ape in the Black Gold Ape's lair, Xiang Yun's heart was actually filled with sympathy and guilt.

The concept of the law of the jungle wasn't as strong in his mind as these people on the Phecda Continent.

In his world, in his heart, he was still the same as in his previous life. Even if it wasn't the harmony between humans and nature, it wouldn't be killing each other for no reason!

These two golden apes were the same as them, they were also victims. They were caught in Yang Guanglin's scheme, but the two golden apes had no intention of harming him, but were used by him.

Xiang Yun could not help but feel sympathy for the two beasts that had originally been together with each other. All he could do was bury them together, so that they would not be eaten as food by the other beasts.

After instructing Liu Hong, Xiang Yun then had Lin Wan'er invite City Lord Lu over. City Lord Lu had arrived in time to save everyone, so Xiang Yun naturally had to express his grat.i.tude!

City Lord Lu lowered his head, entering Xiang Yun's tent with a somewhat restrained manner. His expression was somewhat unnatural, and it could even be said that he was somewhat fearful.

Today, Xiang Yun had beheaded Yang Guanglin outside the square, holding Xiang Chang'an in his arms. This obviously caused this already cowardly City Lord to feel uneasy, afraid that this crown prince would denounce him for his crimes.

Seemingly sensing City Lord Lu's uneasiness, Xiang Yun invited City Lord Lu to sit down, thanking him in a soft voice. To be frank, if he had not arrived in time, who knew how many casualties he would have caused, even though his own life could be considered saved by City Lord Lu.

Having eaten the Tranquil Heart Pill, City Lord Lu naturally did not dare to remain proud of his achievements …

He bowed humbly, almost burying his head in the ground, and spoke bluntly.

"Oh, your highness, please don't say that. Your highness has always taken good care of this official and this servant will remember it in my heart. But your affairs, your highness, are my first priorities."

"This official arrived late today, causing His Highness to be injured. Your highness didn't blame this official for coming late. I am already lucky, how could I dare to receive another compliment."

Xiang Yun looked at City Lord Lu bowing his head with a humble expression, feeling rather helpless. He patted Lu Yongchang on the shoulder.

Suddenly, he saw a scarlet scale on his back. It should be today, when he was dealing with the Mysterious Flaming Double Headed Python, he accidentally touched it.

Xiang Yun immediately used his hand to help him brush off the scale armor. The scale armor had cut through City Lord Lu's clothes, leaving behind a neat little hole that just happened to be stuck in.

The moment he saw this hole, Xiang Yun's hands froze, as if struck by lightning. His entire body froze in place, not moving at all!

"Your Highness, what's wrong?" City Lord Lu looked at the stunned Xiang Yun, his body suddenly stiffening. He could not help but ask in confusion.

Hearing City Lord Lu's question, the stiff expression on Xiang Yun's face dissolved as he gripped the scarlet scale tightly in his palm, his brows relaxed as he spoke.

"Oh, it's fine, it's fine. I just suddenly recalled that Fatty Niu suffered such heavy injuries. I wonder how he is doing now?"

"Oh!" City Lord Lu was relieved. "Your Highness, don't worry. I've already seen Young Master Niu and treated him with Yun Li. He's fine now, but he still needs some time to recover."

Only then did Xiang Yun nod his head in relief, "Then I can relax. It's really been hard on you, City Lord!"

"No, no!"

"Milord, why don't you come to my residence today? I'll set up a feast and have some drinks with you?"

City Lord Lu waved his hands, "Ah, no. Your Highness is still wounded. How can you drink wine?"

Xiang Yun smiled, saying, "I'm afraid that you're not worried about my health, but rather that you're afraid of returning home too late and being blamed by your woman. Moreover, you're the newly wedded Yan'er, City Lord.

City Lord Lu's face reddened as he scratched his head awkwardly. He had obviously been guessed right by Xiang Yun.

"Haha, let's do it like this. How about you bring Lady Lan'er to my residence for a feast?" Xiang Yun smiled.

City Lord Lu's square face, which was as simple as a farmer's, suddenly revealed a conflicted expression.

"Your Highness, there are quite a few casualties in the hunting grounds today. I still need to take care of the relevant matters. If I bring Lan'er to the feast, my house will be in chaos."

As City Lord Lu spoke to here, he could not help but shrink back, fear in his eyes.

"Em …" Xiang Yun smiled helplessly upon hearing this, "Forget it, forget it. Since City Lord Lu still has something important to ask of me, I won't force it."

"However, I still have to remind the Mayor. How can a man be so afraid of his wife? No matter what, you are still the lord of a city, so you should at least have the prestige you deserve."

He had merely listened to Xiang Yun's words. How would he dare to go home and display his man's dignity?

Immediately, the two of them exchanged a few more pleasantries. Xiang Yun personally stood up to see Lu Yongchang out of his tent!

"Your Highness, it's cold outside, you don't need to come out. It's raining outside, this official will take his leave first!" Lu Yongchang stood outside the tent, cupping his hands and bowing. He took a few steps back from the entrance before turning around and taking his leave!

Outside the tent, Xiang Yun lifted the tent flap, watching City Lord Lu with his head lowered, a cowardly figure walking away step by step.

The smile on Xiang Yun's face was just like this spring winter rain that had suddenly rained down from the sky. It was a little cold!

Lin Wan brought out a fox fur cape and wrapped it around Xiang Yun's body.

Looking at City Lord Lu in the distance, Lin Wan'er could not help but cover her mouth as she spoke.

"Your Highness, City Lord Lu is so timid, he actually fears us like this."

After Lin Wan'er had finished speaking, she did not receive a reply for a long time. The latter could not help but turn to look at Xiang Yun.

He realized that the Crown Prince was like a wooden sculpture. His expression was cold, and in the cold spring rain, he looked dark and gloomy.

Lin Wan'er was shocked. She was about to ask the crown prince if her injuries had returned to normal. The latter's face had already returned to normal and he was muttering to himself.

"Even though City Lord Lu fears us, his character is not bad."

Lin Wan'er nodded in agreement. "That's true. Mayor Lu may be a bit cowardly, but he's a sincere and una.s.suming man. The civilians and the military love him very much."

With a smile on his face, Xiang Yun suddenly stretched out his hand to catch the falling rain as he casually asked this.

"Wan-Er, what's the wind today?"

Lin Wan'er raised her head and looked at him. "It's the southeast wind today," she replied. "What do you want to know?"

"Oh, I'm just asking." Xiang Yun and Lin Wan'er turned around and returned to their camp.

That night, the camp was filled with people as they headed towards the direction of the Qin Feng City. The three days of the hunt had already ended.

However, after today's incident with the Black Fire Python, the hunting grounds had suffered a great number of casualties. City Lord Lu was extremely busy and naturally did not have the time to host a bonfire dinner.

As for the hunters, they did not want to be tainted by bad luck and hurriedly rushed back to the city.

Xiang Yun and Fatty Niu were also brought back to the estate by the servants. After they returned, Xiang Yun was supported by Lin Wan'er back to his own room.

After another round of concerned questioning, everyone left, leaving Xiang Yun alone in the room.

"Hu!"

Exhaling deeply, Xiang Yun could not help but cough violently a few times. He patted himself on the chest, extinguis.h.i.+ng the candle flame as he lay down slowly on the bed.

The room was pitch-black and completely silent. Only a pair of bright eyes could be seen flickering about!

"Could it really be you?"

A trace of doubt rose in Xiang Yun's heart, a haze that he could not let go of. If his guess was right, then all of this was simply too terrifying …

He was still in the tiger's den, and he actually didn't know it!

Xiang Yun had not slept the entire night. He did not cultivate the Art of Creation, nor did he recover from his injuries. Instead, all he could think about was how to deal with this dire situation!
