Chapter 4208  Cry For Help

As they continued to walk inside, Feng Jiu"s speed increased, which made it difficult for w.a.n.g Yu who was following behind, to keep up. Leng Shuang was able to keep up, but w.a.n.g Yu was about three metres behind. This was him using his spirit energy to be able to follow them closely. Once he relaxed a little, the distance between them widened again.

The two people in front walked ahead lightly, and after a whole morning, the distance between them went from three metres to five metres. Leng Shuang glanced back and saw that w.a.n.g Yu was struggling to keep up with them. The edges of his clothes were stained with mud and his boots were covered in mud. Sweat dripped from his forehead as he panted. Upon seeing this, she asked: "Master, should we stop for a rest? I don"t think he can continue anymore." Even though he had a good cultivation level, he was only slightly better than people his age. So how could he keep up with those people who had such strong training and strength?

It was not bad that he managed to follow them all morning. Feng Jiu smiled and said: "Then let"s take a rest under that big tree in front! We can also have something to eat." As she said that, she went to the big tree ahead in a flash. The two of them rested under the tree for a while before they saw w.a.n.g Yu coming up to them to sit down, panting. Upon seeing this, Feng Jiu smiled and asked: "How is it? Can you still manage?"

"Yes." He raised his sleeve to wipe his forehead and panted, then said: "I just nearly couldn"t keep up with you."

"It"s normal you can"t keep up." Feng Jiu said. She took out some wine and had a sip, then said: "The road ahead is very long, after the stretch of road ahead, we have to climb the mountain. It will be even more strenuous."

Upon hearing this, w.a.n.g Yu couldn"t help but ask: "Are we not flying on swords? Or any flying artifact? Wouldn"t it save more time?"

Feng Jiu smiled and said: "Yes we can, but the sky isn"t necessarily safer than the ground. What"s more, didn"t you want to gain experience? How can you not suffer a bit of hards.h.i.+p?"

She looked up at the lush trees that blocked the sky and saw a vast expanse of greenery. The big trees in the forest were all towering trees that provided cover for them from the flying beasts inside the forest. So, naturally their journey was not as fast walking within the forest. "That"s true." He responded, looking up at the trees above his head. Then, he took out some water from his s.p.a.ce ring and had a drink, and pa.s.sed some dry food to Feng Jiu and Leng Shuang: "Eat something!!"

"We have some here." Leng Shuang said, taking out some cakes and pa.s.sing them to Feng Jiu. Feng Jiu smiled and said to w.a.n.g Yu: "Do you want some cakes?"

w.a.n.g Yu looked at the exquisite cakes and shook his head: "No, I"ll be fine eating this." Cakes didn"t curb hunger as well as coa.r.s.e grains. The three of them rested under the tree, eating and chatting. However, at this moment, a cry for help came from a place nearby. When w.a.n.g Yu heard the voice, he stood up instinctively and looked in the direction of the voice. "Someone is calling for help! I"ll go and take a look." He said and walked quickly in that direction. Feng Jiu and Leng Shuang looked at each other and shook their heads, then followed him. Why would someone be calling for help inside this forest? It was too coincidental. w.a.n.g Yu followed the voice and he saw a naked woman sitting in the weeds, her hands covering her face as she cried softly and begged: "Young Master, help me… help me…"

Upon seeing this, he turned his back quickly then took off his cloak and threw it to her: "Miss, put that on quickly."
