886: Chapter 887: Invitation 886: Chapter 887: Invitation “Let’s go, the specialty snacks at Fire Stronghold are pretty good~”
Feng Yuan said to Lanadi, while Agunas looked at Feng Yuan with so confusion and said,
“How did you know it’s Fire Stronghold?
I don’t think I’ve had the chance to tell you yet.”
“Do I even need to ask?
There are only a few people that Drudgeon is close with; if grandma had really invited , she would have directly called , and it’s not likely Drudgeon would go there.”
“Only Fire Stronghold is a bit special; Drudgeon drops by there from ti to ti.”
Saying this, Feng Yuan rembered how Agunas had behaved towards Drudgeon when he was studying Dynasty Era literature and smirked,
“Speaking of which, you don’t oppose it doing that now?”
Glaring at Feng Yuan, Agunas flicked its tail and said,
“Since modern tis don’t value those customs, I naturally won’t say much.”
Veronia looked back and forth between Agunas and Feng Yuan, puzzled.
Her intuition told her this must be so embarrassing history for Agunas, but unfortunately, she didn’t possess the Authority of Ti to look into the past.
Asking Feng Yuan directly would probably be fruitless, as the guy was unlikely to tell.
With a twirl of her eye, Veronia floated over to Xiao Ji and whispered sothing.
Agunas, however, was keeping an eye on her actions and with a swipe of its claw pushed Veronia away.
Agunas said with dissatisfaction,
“Can’t you be a little less curious?
It’s not a big deal anyway!”
“Oh, acting like this is just an admission of guilt, and it only makes more curious~”
Veronia laughed proudly looking at Agunas, while Xiao Ji seed not to understand what was going on and hence asked nothing.
Seeing that they were about to start squabbling again, Feng Yuan rubbed his temples speechless and said,
“Alright, stop arguing, let’s go so we don’t keep anyone waiting.”
“Is this Fire Stronghold?”
Surprised, Lanadi looked around at the traditional architecture.
Feng Yuan nodded and waved to He Nanqing, who was approaching,
“Thanks for this~”
With a slight smile, He Nanqing bowed slightly and said,
“You haven’t had lunch yet, have you?
Follow .”
“Where’s Drudgeon?”
Feng Yuan looked around curiously.
Drudgeon erged from a corner, giving Agunas a displeased glance and said,
“Sothing wrong?”
“Just curious how you knew I was showing people around Maomu.”
With a flick of its tail, Drudgeon glanced at Agunas and said,
“That guy asked for my help, what do you think?”
“Hehe~ Thanks a lot~”
Feng Yuan said to Agunas with a chuckle.
Veronia, looking around with so puzzlent, said,
“Why are there so many blessings here?
What place is this?”
Then she looked at Agunas with suspicion.
Scanning the surroundings, Gladys said sowhat strangely,
“Why is the power of ti being interfered with here?
What kind of place is this?
So strange, yet no one is researching it?”
“An Alliance Class I Special Protection Area, what do you say?
But I didn’t expect that there would be so many people living here.”
Lanadi looked around at the children running everywhere, sowhat surprised.
It seed that these people recognized Feng Yuan; they greeted him warmly when they saw him, and so even stuffed freshly picked fruit into his hands.
Xiao Ji’s gaze constantly swept over the familiar architecture; the last ti it was here, it was still in its Eggshell Chicken form, but now it could freely soar through the skies.
“It seems that people here have a very good attitude toward you.”
Gladys observed Feng Yuan and ntioned, while the Prophecy Doll perched on Gladys’s shoulder, curiously looking around.
This ancient stronghold, though reconstructed several tis, still retained the aura of various eras, a peculiar experience for a Ti Series Spirit Beast.
“Of course, you’re not looking at who I am,” Feng Yuan said proudly, as Agunas flicked his tail and cast a glance at Feng Yuan before saying,
“Don’t you think they’d be so enthusiastic if it hadn’t been for your help?”
“Help?
What have you done?”
Lanadi looked at Feng Yuan with a curious face, and upon seeing the usually mature and capable Lanadi suddenly display the deanor of a demure woman, Feng Yuan paused for a mont and said,
“I didn’t do much, just gave them so casual advice.”
Feng Yuan then explained the unique situation here.
The matters of Yognot were actually not a secret to Lanadi, after all, hadn’t the other person ntioned that this is a Category I protected area?
For these protected areas with secret designations, people who are not authorized to know wouldn’t even be aware of which areas are protected, and only people who are authorized to know the secrets could know where the protected areas are.
Since the matters of Yognot were not a major secret among the Alliance’s higher-ups, Feng Yuan didn’t mind sharing.
After listening to Feng Yuan’s explanation, Lanadi looked at Feng Yuan with a face full of surprise, as if she were looking at a monster, and Feng Yuan complained unsatisfactorily as Lanadi kept staring,
“Why are you looking at like that?”
“I’m amazed.
You actually know so much?
Especially about these Divine Beasts’ blessings, not many in the Alliance’s upper echelons could easily recognize them, right?”
Lanadi said while circling around Feng Yuan curiously and inspecting him,
“You wouldn’t happen to be a human transformation of a Divine Beast, would you?
Many Divine Beasts have this peculiar hobby, right?”
“What peculiar hobby?
Everyone has different purposes.
Sotis, the human form can be used to investigate information that’s not accessible on ordinary days.”
Veronia said sowhat disdainfully.
Agunas looked at Veronia with a hint of confusion, always feeling that sothing about her seed off.
Veronia provocatively glanced at Agunas and said,
“Little Crocodile, I bet you don’t even have a human form, do you?”
“So what?”
Agunas squinted at Veronia, guessing what was coming next.
Veronia waved her hand, and a golden light enveloped her, her form gradually changing within the glow.
Watching the golden-haired woman dressed in ancient and luxurious attire erge, Lanadi said in astonishnt,
“Actually…”
“Hey, I’m not a Divine Beast!
I’m a pure human!”
Feng Yuan complained, feeling dissatisfied.
Agunas glanced at Feng Yuan and said,
“Would a normal human have your strength?
To be honest, I’m not sure whether to categorize you as a human or a Divine Beast.”
“Who says so!
I am a human!
Veronia, how about making so crocodile atballs?”
Hearing Feng Yuan’s words, Veronia’s hand gently brushed her golden hair as she looked at Agunas with a satisfied smirk,
“Of course.”
“Don’t you go too far!”
Watching Feng Yuan and Veronia, chuckling as they approached, Agunas said a bit fearfully.
Feng Yuan just happened to have a way to restrict its movents, and Veronia?
It was on par with Veronia in strength, incapable of overpowering her.
With Feng Yuan involved, it would definitely be no match for them.
Ignoring Feng Yuan and Veronia, who were now horsing around with Agunas, Lanadi curiously surveyed her surroundings and said,
“I didn’t expect to see such ancient architecture here, truly worthy of a Category I secret area.
But why let these people live here?”
Lanadi was puzzled by this—after all, even their Thousand Stars Tribe had migrated to the coast of Mordan for developnt, given the difficulty of establishing a comprehensive transportation system in the Mordan area, or rather, the lack of necessity for it.
Those who wanted to enjoy modern life moved to the coast, while those who preferred the ancient wilderness retained their traditional nomadic habits, living scattered across various regions.
Everyone was quite satisfied with this arrangent.
However, here at Fire Stronghold, its particularity severely impacted their lives—at the very least, neither transportation convenience nor other aspects could compare to non-secret areas.
“They are devout followers who worship the Divine.
Well, it’s actually simple, Yognot needs companionship, so so people stay.
Is that strange?”
Feng Yuan said, holding Xiao Ji, sowhat puzzled.
Lanadi asked with so wonder,
“Then why not consider living sowhere more convenient in the outside world?”
“Because this is our ho, and besides, apart from being sowhat difficult, there’s actually not much difference.
Places like our Fire Stronghold aren’t that rare.”
He Nanqing said with a smile.
Although their inco wasn’t high, within the Cha Mu Town area, they were not at the very bottom, and because of the many blessings of Divine Beasts, the Fire Stronghold was safer than other places in the face of natural disasters.
Although there were people who left due to life’s hardships, many elders still preferred staying in the seemingly unchanging Fire Stronghold.
