“Yes, I must go.”

Xiao Jin didn’t say anything again. He even lay down on her bed straightaway.

“You…”

“Don’t talk. If you don’t listen to what I say, then I won’t listen to what you say either.”

Su Ying was dumbfounded.

Xiao Jin turned over with his back facing her. “Turn off the lights. Since you’re going, go to bed early and wake up early.”

Su Ying subconsciously walked to the side and covered the illuminating pearl with a cloth before lying down on the bed.

She closed her eyes, and a wave of heat suddenly came from behind her. She was surrounded by Xiao Jin’s aura.

Su Ying felt that something was amiss, but she couldn’t quite put her finger on it.

“Xiao Jin, you…”

“You must be careful when you leave the city tomorrow.” Before Xiao Jin finished his sentence, he had wrapped his arm around Su Ying’s waist.

Su Ying’s attention was instantly diverted. “Didn’t you object to me going?”

“If you really want to go, I can’t stop you.”

“I will be careful.”

Xiao Jin murmured a reply. He inhaled the faint scent of medicinal herbs on her body and closed his eyes.

Su Ying also didn’t expect Xiao Jin to change his att.i.tude so quickly. Although she would still go out even if he didn’t agree to her leaving the city, she still felt a little uncomfortable. Now that he wasn’t objecting anymore, it was as if a huge stone had been lifted from her shoulders.

She exhaled softly and closed her eyes.

However, Xiao Jin opened his eyes after she fell asleep. He leaned over and kissed her on the lips before hugging her from behind and falling asleep soundly.

When Su Ying woke up, she realized that Xiao Jin was still lying next to her. Only then did she come back to her senses. This rascal had actually caught her off guard last night and came to her bed to occupy a spot!

Just as Su Ying woke up, Xiao Jin also opened his eyes.

Actually, he had woken up long ago. He just wanted to sleep with her for a while longer.

After was.h.i.+ng up and eating breakfast, Su Ying packed her things quickly and prepared to set off with the Orange Guardian.

She picked up her bundle and turned around to find Xiao Jin following closely behind her. “Aren’t you going to train them today?”

“Jiang Yun can lead the team.”

“Oh,” Su Ying replied. She handed the bundle she had packed to the Orange Guardian.

“Alright. I’m leaving. You be careful in the city.”

Xiao Jin looked at her solemnly and said, “Be careful at all times.”

Su Ying didn’t want to see him worry about her, so she nodded very solemnly and said, “I will definitely return safely.”

“Mm-hmm.”

The rear exit of Sky Alpha City was behind the mausoleum. There was a small path there that led to the foot of the mountain.

Xiao Jin only turned back after sending Su Ying to the mausoleum.

Su Ying traveled lightly, bringing only the Orange Guardian with her. If there were too many people, it would only slow down the progress.

The horse carriage was pulled by two tigers. The Orange Guardian drove the carriage outside, while Su Ying sat inside the carriage. Even though she had a heating pad on her body to keep herself warm, she didn’t want her face to be blasted by the freezing wind. It was not a pleasant feeling.

Su Ying looked through the carriage curtains at the snowy landscape outside. Fortunately, the snow on their side wasn’t that deep, or else it would be difficult for the carriage to move.

“How long will it take to reach the nearest tribe?”

The Orange Guardian said, “If it’s not winter, we can reach it in three days. In winter, it will take a little longer, about four or five days.”

Su Ying nodded and sat cross-legged in the carriage. Since it was boring traveling in the carriage, she would circulate her energy.

On the third day, they emerged from the forest and arrived at a plain.

At this moment, a gust of wind suddenly started blowing outside, and it felt like a knife was slicing through a person’s face. If Su Ying hadn’t given the Orange Guardian a protective face mask to put on, his face would have been frozen solid.

“City Lord, a snowstorm is brewing. We can’t go on.” The strong wind caused the carriage to sway violently. If they continued to move forward, they would easily fall into unknown perils.

“Let’s find a place to wait it out first.”

“Yes, City Lord.”

Fortunately, the Orange Guardian was quite familiar with this area, so he quickly found a cave that was facing away from the wind.

The two of them unharnessed the two tigers from the carriage and they all walked into the cave to hide from the snowstorm.

Su Ying and the Orange Guardian had heating pads on their bodies, so they weren’t actually cold. The two tigers had thick skin and fur, so they naturally wouldn’t feel cold.

The Orange Guardian took some raw meat from the carriage and fed it to the tigers to fill their stomachs.

Su Ying took out a water bag and took a sip. She had also pasted a heating pad on the water bag, or else the water inside would have frozen.

As the sky gradually darkened, the Orange Guardian took out an illuminating pearl. The soft warm light emitted by the pearl lit up the area between the two of them.

Su Ying yawned and planned to get a nap. Thus, she got up and walk into the cave to see if she could find a comfortable place to lie down. However, just as she walked in, she kicked something.

Su Ying quickly steadied her body and had the Orange Guardian bring the pearl over to take a look. She discovered that there was actually a person lying on the ground.

She squatted down and felt around his neck. “He’s still breathing.”

She turned around and looked at the Orange Guardian. “Use the charcoal to light a fire and roast the food rations we brought.”

“Yes, City Lord.”

Su Ying took out a heating pad and stuck it on that guy’s body. Then, she brought him to the side of the charcoal campfire. “Kid, you’re lucky to have met me.”

The other party’s body was almost frozen. Although he was not dead yet, he was not far from death. When Su Ying asked the Orange Guardian to go to the carriage to get something, she took the opportunity to enter the interspatial store to take out a cardiac stimulant syringe and inject it into that guy.

After that, she pried his mouth open and fed him some glucose. Following that, Su Ying left him alone and allowed him to lie on the ground.

“City Lord, eat.”

The Orange Guardian handed over the roasted steamed bun to Su Ying. She ate the fragrant steamed bun with dried meat and settled her dinner in this fas.h.i.+on.

After eating and drinking her fill, Su Ying walked into the cave. “I’m going to take a nap. Call me if there’s anything.”

“Yes, City Lord.”

At night, the snowstorm outside became more intense, so much so that only the sound of the wind could be heard.

However, Su Ying slept exceptionally soundly in the cave. With such a strong wind, even wild beasts would not be able to come out. There was almost no hidden danger.

When Su Ying woke up again, the sky outside was already bright.

The Orange Guardian had fallen asleep by the charcoal campfire. The person she had saved yesterday was still lying on the ground.

She walked forward to check his pulse. Although he was still very weak, his pulse was much more stable than yesterday.

Just as Su Ying stood up, the man slowly opened his eyes. When he saw Su Ying clearly, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.

“Who… who are you?” Zhang Shulun tried to get up, but just as he moved, his limbs went limp and he fell back to the ground.

Su Ying heard the commotion and turned back to look at him. “Your savior. You woke up pretty quickly.”

Zhang Shulun looked at her weakly, then all around at the inside of the cave.

He knew that Su Ying was telling the truth.

Yesterday, when he struggled to get himself into the cave, he was already exhausted. After that, he lost consciousness.

The moment he fell unconscious, he felt that he was done for. He did not expect to be saved by someone.

“Thank you. Thank you for saving me, Miss.”

Su Ying sat down by the charcoal campfire and took out some dry food to roast over the fire. The steamed buns tasted even more delicious after being roasted.

Having slept enough and not in a hurry to continue with her journey, Su Ying had more free time on her hands and casually asked, “Why are you in the cave?”
