Chapter 179: Chapter 179 : Heaven And Hell Peak (4)
"What have you done?" The Crown Prince’s voice was brimming with exasperation. "Are you trying to kill yourself?"
Zhang Fengxi chuckled.
He recalled asking Xie Jianyu the sa question when the latter was ditating underwater.
Interesting, how the scene repeated with reversed roles.
Xie Jianyu’s fair cheeks flushed pink when his eyes accidentally landed on Zhang Fengxi’s open chest. The color slowly wandered to his ears, causing them to glow bright red. The enticing sight unwittingly made Zhang Fengxi’s heart skip a beat.
Xie Jianyu quickly averted his gaze.
"You... Cover yourself," he murmured in embarrassnt.
Zhang Fengxi could not help but grin when he saw Xie Jianyu’s adorable reaction.
"We are both n, why do you avert your gaze?" He teased.
Xie Jianyu turned to glare at him.
"Shaless," he said to Zhang Fengxi’s face. Gallant like a true prince, he then took off his long cloak and draped it around Zhang Fengxi’s shoulder.
Only that Zhang Fengxi was no maiden in distress.
The cloak was tailored to Xie Jianyu’s size, so it was naturally too small to cover Zhang Fengxi’s naked upper half. It only managed to hide Zhang Fengxi’s back from sight.
His impeccable, perfectly sculpted torso was still glaring at Xie Jianyu, burning the latter’s cheeks further in the process.
Xie Jianyu wordlessly pulled Zhang Fengxi to his feet. The alpha was heavier than he rembered. He just wasn’t sure whether it was the water that drenched his body or the muscle mass that he gained after two months of training.
The Crown Prince wobbled slightly on shaky feet when Zhang Fengxi’s weight shifted on him.
How adorable.
Zhang Fengxi was by no ans an invalid. He was perfectly able to walk on his own, but it felt good to be taken care of once in a while. It felt good to have Xie Jianyu so close to him again, feeling his small but strong hands wrapped around his arm and waist.
When they were this close, Zhang Fengxi could sll Xie Jianyu’s pleasing scent.
It was a lot stronger now that he had stopped taking the Night To Day Reversal Seeds.
"Ah...!!!"
Xie Jianyu let out a small cry when one of his feet stepped on a slippery rock. He was prepared to fall back into the water with Zhang Fengxi when he was lifted off his feet instead.
Xie Jianyu looked at Zhang Fengxi’s smiling face. The alpha seed to beco more handso since the last ti Xie Jianyu saw him.
On the other hand, Zhang Fengxi was a drunken ss the last ti Xie Jianyu saw him, so the transformation was probably just his imagination.
"Let
down," Xie Jianyu murmured.
"Can I carry you to dry land first? There are many slippery spots around here."
"... Alright."
Zhang Fengxi slowly walked across the pool of water while carrying Xie Jianyu in his arms.
Without his customized coats, the original appearance of Xie Jianyu’s shoulders was revealed. They were wide, but at the sa ti delicate, typical of male ogas.
The wide shoulders frad a lean and slender body that tapered down to a narrow waist.
He faintly rembered how it felt like when he put his hands at Xie Jianyu’s waist and pushed deep inside the oga, eliciting sweet moans from him as they climbed the heights of pleasure with abandon.
Zhang Fengxi swallowed hard. He could feel heat creeping up his own face. Thankfully, his tanned skin perfectly hid his blush.
Right after Zhang Fengxi dropped Xie Jianyu to the ground, his stomach betrayed him. Zhang Fengxi laughed nervously as he pressed a hand against his stomach.
"Hahaha, I am hungry."
"..."
Unfortunately, neither of them had food around. Or water. The small well that Zhang Fengxi built to act as their water reservoir was almost dry.
"How do you keep yourself alive these past two months?" Xie Jianyu asked.
"There is a river with a lot of fat fishes in the west direction," Zhang Fengxi answered. "It is also possible to hunt in the woods if you want to eat so pheasants or wild boars."
"You should rest here," Xie Jianyu said. "I will go get us so water and fish."
The Crown Prince grabbed two empty buckets and walked away, leaving Zhang Fengxi behind.
By the ti he ca back with two buckets full of water and five fresh trouts for them to feast on, Zhang Fengxi already set up a campfire.
Next to the crackling fla lay the carcass of an unknown animal, skinned and cleaned ticulously.
The at had been cut into cubes with a small blade. The alpha was in the middle of making skewers out of them.
"Xie Jianyu, welco back. Please pour the water into the well," Zhang Fengxi said with a grin. "There is a leather bag next to the well. Can you bring
the clay pot inside?"
"Did you go into the forest?" Xie Jianyu asked while pouring water into the small well.
"No, of course not," Zhang Fengxi lied smoothly. "This mountain deer ran out of the forest and started to attack . I was just defending myself."
Xie Jianyu’s eyes shifted to the pile of forest mushrooms that Zhang Fengxi stacked on top of a huge leaf.
He assud that the mountain deer pelted Zhang Fengxi with said mushrooms as well.
What a liar.
Xie Jianyu rummaged inside the leather bag next to the well and found the clay pot that Zhang Fengxi wanted. Inside was a dark-colored paste, with cut-up leaves and tiny seeds mixed within.
"What’s that? Spices?"
"Yes, our Longjing Palace’s special mix, my late grandmother’s recipe. You will like it. To my knowledge, our kitchen staff had to grind it out of 52 different ingredients."
Speaking about Longjing Palace, Xie Jianyu was reminded of the reason he even ca to the Heaven and Hell Peak.
"Zhang Fengxi, your mother is worried about you," he said. "It is fine if you leave ho to train, but should you not send so letters back ho to ease her mind?"
