“Rong Yan, you see there is fire ahead.” “Sister Zhao, it’s not as good as us Let’s go and have a look, this neighborhood seems to be safe.” Ouyang Zixin Just after eating, I heard someone’s voice not far away, and the footsteps seemed to be heading towards me. Liu Ying quickly disappeared, leaving only Liu Lvy to continue accompanying Ouyang Zixin. "Hey, why is it you?" The person who came was none other than Sito Rongyan. When he saw Ouyang Zixin sitting in front of the fire, he felt very unhappy. Ouyang Zixin did not expect to meet Sito Rongyan here, and she actually went with the cruel Zhao Family lady during the day. Judging from the familiarity of the two, they must have known each other for a long time. "Rong Yan, do you know her?" Zhao Family Second Young Lady's name is Zhao Feiyu, because Zhao Family and Sidu Family are both stewards of the business group, and Sito Rongyan The friendship is very good. "Sister Zhao, this person is Ouyang Zixin." Sito Rongyan originally wanted to take a rest here, but when he saw it was Ouyang Zixin, he wanted to drag Zhao Feiyu to find a place to rest again. . "She is Ouyang Zixin." Zhao Feiyu has often heard Sito Rongyan mentioned this name along the way. Now seeing the Demoness in her mouth, she became a little curious. According to legend, the person chosen by Third Prince is indeed beautiful. Pushing Sito Rongyan away and holding his hand, Zhao Feiyu stepped forward to greet Ouyang Zixin with a smile on his face. His sweet voice did not suggest that he was a ruthless woman at all.
If it weren't for Ouyang Zixin happening to see her ordering the live flaying of a Mystical Beast in broad daylight, she might have been deceived by her sweet voice.
"Miss Ouyang, it's getting late. Rong Yan and I are really too tired to walk any further. May we rest here for a while?" Zhao Feiyu, disregarding Sito Rongyan's dissatisfaction, smiled kindly at Ouyang Zixin, showing no desire to continue walking.
They say you shouldn't strike someone who is smiling; even though Ouyang Zixin was unwilling, she nodded in agreement to Zhao Feiyu's request.
"Sister Zhao..." Sito Rongyan didn't want to be in the same place as her "rival." Although she had been looking for an opportunity to teach Ouyang Zixin a lesson, asking to borrow her space to rest made it difficult for her to feel justified in doing so.
Zhao Feiyu naturally understood what Sito Rongyan was thinking and gestured for her to calm down, suggesting they rest first before discussing anything further.
Both of them had five bodyguards, and soon enough, they cleared a space for the two of them to rest. Since the guards were all men, once everything was set up, they moved a bit farther away.
Ouyang Zixin leaned against a large tree, closing her eyes to rest, while Liu Lvy stood guard nearby.
Noticing that Ouyang Zixin showed no intention of getting acquainted with her, Zhao Feiyu felt displeased. The young lady from the National Protector's Mystic Master Manor truly seemed to look down on others.
After whispering with Sito Rongyan for a moment, Sito Rongyan's previous displeasure vanished, replaced by a smile as she frequently glanced at Ouyang Zixin and nodded.
"Miss," Liu Lvy said softly, "why did you agree to them? Just looking at them..."
"It's nothing; they're just a couple of clowns," Ouyang Zixin replied dismissively. They were merely two spoiled young girls in her eyes.
As the night wore on, the crescent moon hanging in the sky was obscured by clouds, and the light from the campfire gradually diminished. The shadows beside the fire grew larger...
The sound of calm breathing was particularly clear in the stillness of the night.
Suddenly, a rustling sound came, followed by very light footsteps. A figure stealthily approached the campfire, the flickering light illuminating the person's face—this sneaky individual was Sito Rongyan.
By the firelight, Sito Rongyan took out a small paper bag from her waist, carefully opened it, and an unusual fragrance wafted out as she revealed its contents.
Confirming that Ouyang Zixin, who was sleeping under the big tree, had not been awakened, Sito Rongyan hurriedly sprinkled the contents of the paper bag into the fire and quickly tucked the bag back into her waist.
"Are you done? Why are you moving so slowly?" Zhao Feiyu's voice came from behind Sito Rongyan, clearly impatient.
"Ah, Sister Zhao, you startled me. I'm ready, let's hurry up," Sito Rongyan replied. It was a moonlit night with a black wind; even though she knew Zhao Feiyu was right beside her, being startled like that still made her break out in a cold sweat.
Another rustle followed as their footsteps gradually faded away.
"Miss, they've left," Liu Lvy emerged from behind the big tree, squatting beside the fire to inspect it for a moment before turning to say, "It seems to be some kind of medicinal powder that volatilizes when heated. Its effects are still unknown."
Ouyang Zixin slowly opened her eyes. Her calm breathing still resembled that of someone asleep, but her pair of black eyes shone particularly brightly in the night, reflecting the moonlight.
Hmph, mere tricks.
"No need to worry about it; when the time comes, we will naturally understand its purpose." Ouyang Zixin had initially thought that Sito Rongyan was a bold and straightforward woman since she had approached her directly. However, she did not expect that Sito would also be someone who plotted behind others' backs.
Daylight was approaching quickly; Ouyang Zixin did not feel it necessary to retreat because of a little medicinal powder. She instructed Liu Lvy to rest as well and decided to wait until dawn to discuss further.
——Master, why not leave now?
"Why should we leave?" Nameless did not require rest. With him around, even if Ouyang Zixin fell into a state of sleep, she would still be aware of the movements in the outside world.
From the moment Sito Rongyan opened her eyes, Ouyang Zixin knew that the reason she allowed her to take action was simply to see how capable she truly was.
If she had directly let the guards ambush her, Ouyang Zixin couldn't guarantee that she would be able to handle it with absolute confidence; at most, she would have to retreat. However, she didn't expect that Sito Rongyan would actually use poison.
"My body is not something that can be easily poisoned by ordinary drugs." What a joke; the suffering endured during the reconstruction was not in vain.
Nameless saw that Ouyang Zixin was calm and no longer spoke, silently guarding her as she returned to sleep.
Less than an hour later, the sky brightened significantly. The rising sun warmed her skin as Ouyang Zixin stretched lazily, stood up, and thoughtfully gazed at the already extinguished campfire.
Nothing had happened at all.
Liu Lvy approached from a short distance, holding a pile of fruits. Upon seeing Ouyang Zixin awake, she quickened her pace and came right up to her.
"Miss, these fruits are very fresh; please try some." Liu Lvy selected a few large and plump fruits and handed them to Ouyang Zixin.
Ouyang Zixin reached out to take them, confirmed they were not poisonous, and glanced at the other fruits Liu Lvy was holding before silently starting to eat.
After the three of them had eaten their fill, they set off again, continuing along the route planned by Ouyang Zixin.
If Ouyang Zixin's senses were correct, they should be able to find mid- to high-level Mystical Beasts deeper in. Her goal had never been the low-level Mystical Beasts on the outskirts.
