Chapter 658 - 658 Count Me In
658 Count Me In
Heiyao only hoped that Xue Fanxin would permit him to bring his men there. Unexpectedly, she wanted to go personally, frightening him greatly. It was useless no matter how he tried to dissuade her.
“Your Highness, the Moon Burial Ridge is too dangerous. It’s best you don’t go. If anything happens to you, Master will skin me alive. Your Highness, please reconsider.”
“Heiyao, I have to go to that place even if I don’t want to because that’s my mission. Instead of wasting your time, why don’t you prepare the resources?” Xue Fanxin had already instructed Mother Ruan and Liu Qing to prepare a large amount of food and daily necessities for her. She was checking her things to see if she was missing anything.
Before long, Mother Ruan and Liu Qing brought over a pile of food. There was no lack of firewood, rice, oil, salt, vinegar, and tea. Furthermore, the amount was huge, enough for dozens of people to eat for months.!!
As Heiyao had to carry out missions often, he had the habit of carrying food with him. However, he never brought such a large amount. He would at most bring ten days’ worth. After all, he could hunt outside. Bringing enough for ten days was completely enough.
Look at their consort. She actually had to prepare so much food for a trip. Ignoring the dozens of kilograms of fish and the firewood, oil, salt, vinegar, and tea, she even prepared water. Wasn’t this a little too exaggerated?
“Your Highness, we’re only going to the Moon Burial Ridge. Although it’s hundreds of kilometers away from the Imperial Capital, we won’t lack food and water. There’s no need to prepare so many things.”
“I hope you keep your spirits up. Alright, everything’s ready. Let’s set off.” Xue Fanxin put away all the food, half in her storage bag, and half in the Reverse Spirit Heaven Wheel’s space. Then, she called Heiyao and prepared to set off.
Heiyao was stunned. “Your Highness, are we going alone?”
They were going to the Moon Burial Ridge. In the past, perhaps the two of them would not have a problem, but now, it was unknown what dangers lay in that terrifying vortex. Let alone saving people, they might lose their lives.
It did not matter if he died, but the Consort could not die. Otherwise, he would not be able to explain it to his master.
“Count me in.” Heiran suddenly appeared and stood behind Xue Fanxin.
Xue Fanxin smiled. “Alright, then I’ll add you. The three of us will go.”
“Three?” Heiyao stretched out three fingers, still feeling that this number was too little.
“Yes, just three. Let’s go. Time is very tight.” Before Xue Fanxin left, she glanced at the Mystic Crystal Jade Fake Mountain in front of her and thought to herself, Ah Jiu, I’m going to the Third Tomb of the Spacetime Emperor. Wait for me to return.
Heiyao and Heiran did not have the ability to teleport hundreds or thousands of kilometers like Ye Jiushang and Little Lei. They could only take a carriage pulled by demonic beasts.
It was fast, only taking half a day to cover hundreds of kilometers from the Imperial Capital to the Moon Burial Ridge.
“Your Highness, are the three of us really okay?” Heiyao had asked the same question hundreds of times along the way. Despite an affirmative answer, he was still worried.
“If the right person intervenes, the people inside can be saved. Otherwise, it’s useless no matter how many people go.” Xue Fanxin was certain that the Spacetime Emperor’s Third Tomb was in the Moon Burial Ridge. The closer she got to the entrance, the stronger the instructions given by the Supreme Badge. When she stood in front of the vortex, it gave a clear message: the Third Tomb of the Spacetime Emperor.
It seemed like she was going into the tomb again.
This time, Ah Jiu was not around. She had to rely on herself for everything.
