Chapter 674: 671
“—You are married, how could you still have impure thoughts? Was it you who first—”
Before he could finish, Wen Xian suddenly beca angry. She stepped in front of Lu Xiao and spoke furiously:
“Finding that person is what’s most important right now. Why are we wasting ti here!? Besides, don’t you already know what kind of person she is? Stop pretending here. Without any evidence, if you dare to slander my husband, I will rip your mouth apart!”
Wen Xian was like a dominant female jaguar of the Aricas, beautiful yet emanating a powerful aura, resolutely defending and protecting Lu Xiao’s integrity at that mont.
Her words, of course, were not only for the leader of this R country but also implied a ssage to everyone present.
She wouldn’t allow anyone to slander Lu Xiao!
As she stepped forward, firmly blocking the skeptics for him, Lu Xiao’s slender and sharp eyes watched the tall and slender figure standing in front of him, slightly more enlightened.
In the depths of his heart, there seed to be a stir.
No matter what the truth of the matter was, the fact that she wholly trusted him and stood up to protect him was, from his earliest mories, seemingly the first ti soone had done this for him…
Those people were all intimidated by Wen Xian’s words.
Especially that man from R country, who seed unable to et her eyes.
David started organizing again, “Alright, alright, each team send out two people. We’ll take torches and go in together to look for her; she might just be lost.”
“I’m going too!”
Wen Xian declared firmly.
Seeing her so adamant, Lu Xiao found it difficult to stop her, and if that R country woman really had encountered so trouble, he couldn’t bear to leave Wen Xian in a place he couldn’t see.
Ailin also raised her hand, looking at Lu Xiao she said:
“I’ll go too. Lu Xiao is a good man. Inoue Kami indeed likes him; she often cos to him for help, but she’s always been rejected. I can vouch for that.”
The leader of R country looked even more displeased hearing Ailin speak like that.
It seed that if their ambassador really did act in such a manner, it would be an extrely embarrassing affair, but the key issue was that he still didn’t want to admit it.
Afterward, two people from each team stepped forward, and thus a group of fourteen people began their substantial expedition, entering the nocturnal rainforest with torches in hand.
The rainforest itself was a dangerous place, filled with various poisonous insects, snakes, unknown beasts, man-eating swamps, and more. It was already dangerous during the day, let alone at night.
The ground was wet and slippery at night, and as one walked, soone slipped and nearly twisted their ankle.
Low curses were heard over and over from the group.
“Let’s all be careful, watch your step, and make sure to keep an eye on each other’s safety. If soone goes missing, notify imdiately,”
David shouted with a confident voice.
“Received!”
Everyone responded.
Wen Xian and Lu Xiao followed close behind David, but Wen Xian was particularly quiet at this ti.
Not saying a word.
It was unclear what she was thinking about, but as she walked, her foot landed on a slick stone and she suddenly exclaid. Lu Xiao, with quick reflexes, imdiately grabbed her wrist.
Then he pulled her into his arms.
“Slow down.”
Lu Xiao cautioned.
Wen Xian was sowhat unsettled. She nodded, then t Lu Xiao’s deep eyes.
She lightly bit her lower lip—
