Daily Life in the Countryside After Being Reborn Chapter 726 - 80: Kiss After a Long-Awaited Reunion

After an uncertain number of kiloters, Xiao Xian couldn’t rember anymore. All she recalled was whizzing through Snow Valley, pursued relentlessly by the Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors.

She had left in a hurry, hoping that the Vincetoxicum fern she left for Zhou Ziang would be effective. Coupled with Little White Jiao, they should be able to withstand the assault from Wang Fenglei and his group.

The ginseng spirit baby ahead was cunning. Sensing the relentless pursuit behind, it imdiately dove underground, hiding beneath the snow that blanketed the gully.

Xiao Xian’s eyes were fixed on the endless expanse of snow, which made it easy to lose sight of the target; she could only follow the uneven snow that moved ahead on the ground.

The snow gully ahead split into two paths. Xiao Xian hesitated montarily, "Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors, you go left, I’ll go right, inform imdiately of any movent."

After Xiao Xian and the Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors separated,

The single trail divided into four, the Snow Gully that was once straightforward now branched into countless similar offshoots.

Separated from the Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors for rely a mont, Xiao Xian suddenly sensed sothing strange beneath her, and as she sank down her form, the spiritual power needed to press forward doubled.

The Snow Gully had changed, its surface had beco smooth as a mirror. Continuing forward with the Cloud Ascension Technique would consu too much spiritual power, so Xiao Xian had to proceed by walking.

The Spiritual Rhinoceros Scissors did not turn back to follow, and the situation down the other half of the forked path was unknown.

A subterranean river hidden under the snow blocked her way forward.

Xiao Xian spied that the gap to the dark river was only about a ter, found a spot that suited her feet, and leaped, seemingly clearing the dark river.

However, the flowing dark river, like a sly smile, suddenly widened its mouth in laughter.

Her toes were about to touch the ice on the other side when it expanded three to four tis in size. Xiao Xian boosted her energy, raising herself a little higher, but the dark river, as if sensing this, widened several tis more.

Xiao Xian inwardly cried out in alarm, finding it difficult to gather her spiritual energy again, tumbling downward like a stone that had lost its mark in the river.

Before she could even shout, a pair of void hands reached out from behind, snatching her descent just as she was about to fall into the dark river.

Xiao Xian felt enveloped in warmth, as if cradled in a palm. When her body regained freedom, her feet touched the smooth ice, and the short lapse between being airborne and landing made her unable to stabilize her stance imdiately, causing her to lurch forward.

This ti, a firm pair of arms wrapped around her from the side and she heard anxious breathing close to her ear.

"Yezi?" Xiao Xian hesitated as she recognized the familiar yet strange scent behind her, along with his strong and steady heartbeat.

Feeling sowhat reassured, she hadn’t finished speaking when she was lifted off the ground and her shoulder was turned around.

Yezi’s face still showed signs of urgency; his eyes blazed with an intense glow as he scrutinized her carefully, his rough hand caressing her cheek.

Little Pig, buffeted by the winds above, saw a familiar face and rudely decided to co down to show affection towards Xiao Xian.

Before its plump body could settle down, it heard Yezi’s surreptitious warning, "Fly as high as you can, don’t co down and crowd around."

"With a sweetheart, you lose kinship. If it wasn’t for this Phoenix Bird, you wouldn’t have found Xiao Xian so easily." Little Pig sulked, squatting by the river’s edge.

Yezi had been closely following Xiao Xian, and when they encountered a fork in the path, he had Little Pig scout ahead. After confirming Xiao Xian’s whereabouts, he followed suit.

The ice was too slick to run on, so Yezi took out a dical rescue pack he carried and unwound a roll of gauze bandage inside, tying it around his shoes to prevent slipping. Thus, on the path after entering the split trail,

Yezi, with his height and leg length advantage and aided by the gauze, was significantly faster than Xiao Xian.

"You’re hurting ," Xiao Xian chided, her cheeks nearly swollen from Yezi’s rough handling.

Seeing Xiao Xian’s indignant expression, Yezi’s face flushed, and with a forceful push, Xiao Xian cried out, "Ah!" as she was sent sliding several steps away,

Right towards the dark river. Xiao Xian shouted out loud. Panicked, Yezi leaped forward, managing to catch Xiao Xian, but their resulting posture...

Little Pig turned its head and shielded its eyes with its wings, "Yezi, you’re a pervert."

"Yezi, you fool," Xiao Xian faced Yezi, he was pressing down on her.

Yezi’s heartbeat quickened bit by bit as he stared at the flushed girl beneath him, her long, black eyelashes now adorned with ice flakes stirred up from their recent tumble.
