"Brother Ding, what do we do now?"
At this mont, Xia Ling looked at Ding Fan and asked softly.
And as Ding Fan listened to Xia Ling’s words, a gleam flashed in his eyes, his gaze flickered slightly, and he slowly replied to Xia Ling:
"Wait!"
Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, Xia Ling’s eyes widened in surprise, her gaze flickering slightly, and she exclaid to Ding Fan:
"Wait? Brother Ding, are we really going to just wait here?"
As Ding Fan listened to Xia Ling’s words, the corner of his mouth gradually curled into a smile, his gaze flickering slightly, and he slowly replied to Xia Ling:
"So far, we’ve only seen that robed young man. I don’t know how many competitors are hidden in the shadows. Just that one robed young man is difficult enough to contend with—I can’t imagine how many other formidable beings might be out there..."
Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, a thoughtful look appeared on Xia Ling’s face. After pondering briefly, she softly spoke to Ding Fan:
"Brother Ding, could it be that even with your strength, you can’t handle that robed young man?"
As Ding Fan listened to Xia Ling’s words, his eyebrows slowly furrowed, his gaze flickering slightly, and he slowly replied to Xia Ling:
"In the Divine Realm, there are endless experts. With my current strength, I can barely protect myself..."
Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, Xia Ling’s eyes slowly narrowed. After pondering briefly, she softly spoke to Ding Fan:
"Brother Ding, it seems this tomb exploration trip will be very dangerous..."
As Ding Fan listened to Xia Ling’s words, he slowly nodded, his gaze flickering slightly, and he slowly replied to Xia Ling:
"Xia Ling, it seems we’ll be staying here tonight..."
Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, Xia Ling obediently nodded, gave a slight smile to Ding Fan, and cheerfully said to him:
"Brother Ding, I’ll listen to everything you say!"
By now, Wind Thunder City had entered evening. Ding Fan looked around the environnt and found a secluded and quiet spot to settle down, tidying up a bit and specifically arranging a place for Xia Ling to rest. At this ti, Xia Ling slowly walked over from outside. Seeing Ding Fan’s arrangent, a touched look flashed in her eyes.
"Brother Ding, what are you doing?"
As Ding Fan listened to Xia Ling’s words, the corner of his mouth also curled slightly, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he smiled at Xia Ling:
"I’ve arranged a simple resting place for you. We’ll be staying here for the night..."
Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, a gentle smile crossed Xia Ling’s lips, her gaze flickering slightly. She obediently walked to Ding Fan’s side, reached into her storage ring, and pulled out two Yuan Beasts the size of rabbits.
As Ding Fan looked at the suddenly thrown rabbit-like Yuan Beasts, a surprised look appeared in his eyes, the corner of his mouth curled slightly, and he laughed while speaking to Xia Ling:
"You went hunting just now?"
Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, a proud look appeared on Xia Ling’s face, the corner of her mouth curled slightly, and she shyly replied to Ding Fan:
"Brother Ding, I saw you busy arranging things. Since I had nothing to do, I went out to catch so food..."
As Ding Fan listened to Xia Ling’s words, a surprised look appeared in his eyes, his gaze flickering slightly, and he softly said to Xia Ling:
"Thank you!"
Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, Xia Ling’s eyebrows slowly furrowed, and she pouted while speaking angrily to Ding Fan:
"Brother Ding, you’ve helped so much, you don’t need to thank !"
Listening to Xia Ling’s words, a surprised look appeared in Ding Fan’s eyes, his gaze flickering slightly, and he smiled while speaking to Xia Ling:
"Alright! Tonight, let’s eat these little beasts together!"
Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, a satisfied smile appeared in Xia Ling’s eyes.
Soon, the stars rose above the sky, and the surrounding bushes quickly darkened. Ding Fan casually released a ball of fire, instantly lighting the dry grass on the ground, and waves of scorching fire erupted.
Then Ding Fan skillfully removed the skins and at of the small beasts, stringing them together piece by piece, and began roasting them over the fire. As Xia Ling watched Ding Fan’s proficient technique, a curious look appeared in her eyes, and she couldn’t resist swallowing when she slled the aroma wafting from the roast at.
"Slls so good, Brother Ding, is the at ready?"
Looking at Xia Ling’s eager expression, a teasing smile crossed Ding Fan’s lips, he curled the corner of his mouth, and he laughed while speaking to Xia Ling:
"What’s the matter? Hungry?"
Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, a blush flashed across Xia Ling’s face, showing a hint of hesitation, and she shyly replied to Ding Fan:
"This at is simply too delicious. Even though I don’t need to eat or drink right now, I can’t help but drool when I sll the aroma coming from the at."
At this mont, Ding Fan couldn’t help but laugh heartily after hearing Xia Ling’s words, a smile spreading across his face. He reached out, took a skewer of at, and handed it to Xia Ling.
"Have a taste..."
As Xia Ling looked at the skewer of at Ding Fan handed over, she couldn’t resist anymore and started taking big bites. Ding Fan watched Xia Ling’s gluttonous appearance and couldn’t help but shake his head in bemusent.
"Brother Ding, this skewer is so delicious! I really didn’t expect you to have such a skill..."
Upon hearing Xia Ling’s words, Ding Fan couldn’t help but smile a little, his eyes flashing with a gentle look as he slowly said to Xia Ling:
"If you ever want to eat again, I’ll make it for you anyti!"
After hearing Ding Fan’s words, Xia Ling froze for a mont, then, after calming down slightly, nodded at Ding Fan, deeply moved.
Soon enough, Ding Fan and Xia Ling finished all the skewers, and looking at the ss on the ground, Ding Fan’s lips curled into a playful smile.
Xia Ling, still wanting more, couldn’t help but have a look of admiration in her eyes as she gazed at Ding Fan. Just as she was about to say sothing to him, a grave look suddenly flashed across Ding Fan’s eyes, and with his eyes flickering slightly, he pulled Xia Ling into his arms, extinguishing the bonfire with a forceful slap.
"Brother Ding, did sothing happen?"
Xia Ling was a bit shy being pulled into Ding Fan’s arms, but quickly she recovered since she wasn’t the shy type, and asked Ding Fan, puzzled.
After hearing Xia Ling’s question, a grave look appeared in Ding Fan’s eyes, which flickered slightly, and he quietly said to Xia Ling:
"They’re coming..."
Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, Xia Ling’s eyes were full of surprise, flickering slightly as she asked Ding Fan in confusion:
"Brother Ding, what— is soone coming?"
Upon hearing Xia Ling’s questioning, Ding Fan’s eyes flickered, and after pondering for a mont, he slowly said to Xia Ling:
"Just now, with my Divine Sense, I noticed another group near this Wind Thunder City, and this group is completely different from the one we encountered before..."
Xia Ling’s eyes widened in astonishnt upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, flickering slightly as she asked Ding Fan in confusion:
"Another group? Could they also be here to find the Sirius Tomb?"
Ding Fan’s eyes narrowed slightly as he heard Xia Ling’s words, his gaze flickering softly, and he spoke to Xia Ling in a deep tone:
"I’m not sure. This ti it might not be that simple. Their goal seems to not only be the Sirius Tomb..."
Xia Ling’s eyes widened in surprise upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, gazing at him in puzzlent as she said:
"Not only the Sirius Tomb? Brother Ding, did you discover sothing?"
Ding Fan’s eyes flashed with a grave look upon hearing Xia Ling’s question as he said quietly to Xia Ling while his gaze flickered softly:
"Because after their arrival, they didn’t investigate the surroundings, but are observing the traces left on the walls..."
Xia Ling’s eyes widened instantly in shock upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, and she exclaid to Ding Fan in a shocked voice:
"Brother Ding, are you saying their purpose might actually be us?"
Upon hearing Xia Ling’s words, Ding Fan nodded slowly, a slight smile on his lips as he spoke quietly to Xia Ling:
"Not just us, all divine warriors involved in searching for the Sirius Tomb. It seems they have so incredible plan!"
Xia Ling’s mouth dropped open in shock upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, her gaze flickering slightly as she spoke to Ding Fan in shock:
"Brother Ding, if that’s the case, won’t we be in danger?"
Listening to Xia Ling’s words, Ding Fan’s brows furrowed slightly, a subtle curl on his lips as he looked into Xia Ling’s eyes and spoke softly:
"Xia Ling, I will go see what their true purpose is. You wait here for to return!"
Xia Ling’s brows furrowed strongly with concern upon hearing Ding Fan’s words as she gazed at him, saying worriedly:
"Brother Ding, it’s too dangerous for you to go alone. How about I go with you?"
After hearing Xia Ling’s words, Ding Fan slightly furrowed his brow, his eyes flickering, and he spoke quietly to Xia Ling:
"No, the two of us together would be too big a target. If discovered, we won’t even have a chance to escape!"
Hearing Ding Fan’s words, Xia Ling’s face showed an unresigned expression, her lips quivering slightly as she thought of persuading Ding Fan further. But seeing that serious look on his face, she swallowed back the words she was about to say.
