His Highness the Crown Prince Always Wants to Marry Me

Chapter 163: How Did He Get Involved?

Feng Chen was the captain, and with the power he subconsciously exuded, no one objected to his decision.

The others were also riding horses, but they were much inferior to those of Feng Chen and Yu Qing Qian’s, and they weren’t very fast. They arrived at the small town at the foot of the mountain only after dark.

“Let’s stay here today and continue our journey at dawn tomorrow morning.” The group casually ate something, then Feng Chen gave instructions.

The others were also tired from riding their horses all day and returned to their rooms to rest.

After Yu Qing Qian entered her room, she walked to the bed and sat cross-legged. A group of black force in her dan’tian began to swim through her meridians in her body, as if trying to breakthrough something.

A few days ago on the fifteenth, she absorbed the poison from Feng Chen and kept them in her dan’tian for refining. Now that energy completely exploded, so she decided to take advantage of the situation and break through the sealed mental energy variant ability.

After Feng Chen returned to his room, he also entered a state of cultivation.

A few days ago, after Yu Qing Qian sucked away the poison from his body that would’ve accumulated and exploded in the next three years, he felt much more relaxed. He could enter the ethereal state at any time, and he wasn’t far away from breaking through to Spirit General.

He had an inexplicable feeling that the mission of exploring the ancient tomb this time wasn’t simple. Some crises might occur at any moment, so it was urgent to improve his cultivation base as soon as possible.

In another room, Huo Li Ruo and Huo Ye Feng were sitting together drinking.

They were cousins and Huo Ye Feng was the son of Huo Li Ruo’s Emperor Father’s younger brother of the same mother.

“Your relationship with Yu Qing Qian isn’t simple either right.” Huo Ye Feng said as if unintentionally.

Huo Li Ruo looked at him while holding the wine glass, “She saved me once, so she and I can be considered friends.”

Huo Ye Feng raised an eyebrow: “Just friends?”

He could see that this cousin, who had never allowed people to get close, showed more affection towards Yu Qing Qian than a simple friend, but maybe Huo Li Ruo hadn’t figured it out yet.

“Otherwise?” Huo Li Ruo took a sip of the wine and said: “Or maybe in the future we’ll become companions who can entrust our backs to each other while fighting.”

He and Huo Ye Feng had been close since childhood. It could even be said that Huo Ye Feng was one of his people, so there was no need to hide certain things.

“What do you think of Feng Chen?” Huo Ye Feng thought for a while, then asked.

Huo Li Ruo paused in playing with the winecup, “Not simple.”

Huo Ye Feng sneered: “Anyone who’s not a fool can see that Feng Chen’s not simple. I mean, why did he think to become involved in this ancient tomb mission?”

Huo Li Ruo thought for a moment after hearing his words, “Maybe for Qing Qian.”

The rewards for this mission were indeed rich, but they were insignificant to Feng Chen and the others. There was no big profit temptation in this mission of exploring the ancient tomb either, so logically, they wouldn’t participate.

Now Feng Chen not only accepted the mission, but also strongly recommended Yu Qing Qian to be the Healer to the instructor of the mission area. This was the key.

“What’s the relationship between Feng Chen and Yu Qing Qian?” Huo Ye Feng asked tentatively: “This is the first time I’ve seen Feng Chen treat someone so kindly, and I feel there’s a very familiar and tacit understanding between them.

He and Feng Chen were old students of the same session, and they were both born into royal families. He knew very well what that person’s temperament was like in general.

Feng Chen’s attitude towards Yu Qing Qian and their conversation today made him deeply surprised, and he had many speculations.

“I don’t know either.” Huo Li Ruo’s expression darkened.

Huo Ye Feng rubbed the wine cup with his fingers and said after a while: “This mission is an opportunity to befriend Feng Chen.”
