Chapter 307: Where The Hell Is This?!

The next day, when Huanhuan took food from her space as usual, she took out a stone slab.
The words she’d written on the slab had been erased and replaced with Bai Di’s.
He asked where she was now.
Huanhuan wiped the words off and wrote down her current location.
She then stuffed the slab back into the space.!!
After eating and drinking her fill, she slowly perked up again and continued venturing into the forest with Xing Chen.
The forest was too big. At first, Huanhuan could barely find her way, but after half a day, she could no longer tell north from south.
In the end, she had no choice but to follow her instincts.
No matter where they went, they just had to get out of this forest first.
Perhaps the heavens had heard her prayers and let them walk out of the forest before the sun set.
However, what appeared in front of them was not the Black River but a large barren desert.
Huanhuan was stunned.
What the hell was this place?!
She turned around and shouted at Xing Chen, “We’re going the wrong way!”
Xing Chen asked, “Where are we?”
“I don’t know. It’s the desert here. There’s sand and gravel everywhere.”
A gust of wind blew, and Huanhuan, who was talking, was forced to eat a mouthful of sand.
“Pfft!” Huanhuan quickly spat out the sand in her mouth. Then, she took out a snow silk veil from her space and wrapped it around her face, revealing only her eyes.
She took out another snow silk veil and gave it to Xing Chen. “You should cover your nose too, or the sand will get into it.”
Xing Chen took the snow silk veil but didn’t cover his face with it. Instead, he folded it twice and stuffed it into his pocket.
He pulled the hood down over his head and pulled the collar up. Soon, his entire face was covered.
Huanhuan muttered, “Since you have a hood, give me back the snow silk veil. That thing is very expensive!”
Xing Chen asked without changing his expression, “I like it very much. Can’t you give it to me as a souvenir?”
He said it so bluntly that it was difficult to refuse. She could only sigh. “Okay, keep it if you like.”
Anyway, there was still a lot of snow silk gauze in the space. It was enough for her to use for a long time.
Huanhuan stood there hesitating.
She didn’t know if she should return to the forest and find another exit or go deeper into the desert to find a way out.
Unfortunately, Little Brat was still asleep and couldn’t give her an opinion.
The only person she could discuss with now was Ah Xing.
Huanhuan had no choice but to tell Ah Xing her dilemma, hoping that he could give her an opinion.
Xing Chen thought for a moment. “Let’s go forward.”
“Why?”
“In any case, whether we advance or retreat, we don’t know the direction. It’s better to continue forward. At least we don’t have to circle around. If we’re lucky, we might even encounter a few passersby.”
Huanhuan thought about it and decided to continue walking.
The desert was wider than Huanhuan had imagined. When the sun had completely set, Huanhuan found a place to light a fire and warm herself. She also roasted meat.
The two of them made do with the night.
They got up the next morning and continued on their way.
Huanhuan took out the stone slab from the space. Bai Di’s message was written on it.
Bai Di said they were heading down the Black River to find her.
Huanhuan wiped the words off the slab and quickly told Bai Di that she was now out of the forest and in a desert.
Xing Chen was sitting not far away and drinking water. His gaze inadvertently swept across the stone slab in Huanhuan’s hand.
He could see that she was writing on the slab, but he couldn’t understand what the words meant.
It was not that Xing Chen could not read. On the contrary, he knew many words, but he had never seen such words written by Huanhuan.
It seemed her background was more complicated than he had expected.
After Huanhuan was done writing, she stuffed the stone slab back into the space.
She looked up at Xing Chen and asked, “Are you full?”
Xing Chen nodded. “Yes.”
“Then let’s go!”
When they were done, they put out the fire and set off again.
The forest had long since disappeared at the edge of the horizon. As far as the eye could see, it was all rocks and sand. The dry, hot air was filled with the burning smell of sun exposure.
Fortunately, there was a lot of water stored in Huanhuan’s space. She didn’t have to worry about not having enough water. She and Xing Chen each had a leather water pouch. They would drink it when they were thirsty.
Other than feeling a little tired, she didn’t feel uncomfortable.
It was almost noon when Huanhuan and Xing Chen finally saw living people.
The other party was a group of travelers. There were more than 20 people in the entire team, including a female with a plump figure and especially big eyes.
When Huanhuan saw them, she was extremely excited. She quickly pulled Xing Chen over.
The leader of the travelers was a jackal. He was tall and thin, and his skin was tanned from walking in the sun all year round. He was wearing a leather vest and a leather skirt, and there was a star pattern on his arm.
He was actually a three-starred soul beast.
It seemed that this group of travelers was very powerful!
Huanhuan greeted the other party. “Hello! Can we talk?”
The jackal’s gaze swept over her before stopping on her face. Although he couldn’t see her entire face, he could tell from her eyes that she was a very beautiful female.
Male beasts were always especially patient with beautiful females.
This jackal was no exception. He waved his hand, signaling his companions behind him to stop.
He smiled slowly. “Of course.”
It was their first time coming across living people since they started their journey. Huanhuan was excited. She quickly said, “My friend and I want to go to the rock mountain, but unfortunately, we lost our way. I want to ask you if any of you know which direction the rock mountain is in?”
The jackal said, “I haven’t heard of any rock mountains. Please wait a moment. I need to communicate with the companions behind me and see if any of them know where the rock mountain is.”
“Alright, please!”
The jackal turned away and returned to his companions. They gathered and discussed in low voices. They looked up at Huanhuan from time to time.
Huanhuan couldn’t hear what they were saying, but Xing Chen could.
He heard the beasts discussing how to tie up this beautiful female and sell her to a beast city for a large number of crystals.
As for her friend, Xing Chen himself, he wasn’t worth much as a male beast. It would be a hindrance to keep him around. They might as well kill him.
Those beasts were scheming.
Xing Chen still didn’t move. He acted as if he hadn’t heard the beasts.
After the jackal and its companions finalized the plan, the jackal returned to Huanhuan and said with a smile, “You’re in luck. One of us knows the approximate location of the rock mountain. He said we might pass through. If you don’t mind, you can come with us.”
Huanhuan was very happy. “That’s great!”
