Chapter 630: Jinghong Gone Missing

The hare was very fat. After roasting it, Yuan Hongjun gave the hare’s thigh meat to Fan Yuru.

Fan Yuru hesitantly reached out and took the hare thigh from Yuan Hongjun’s hand. At that moment, she suddenly felt that Yuan Hongjun was a very good person. She stole a glance at him…

Under the flickering orange flames, his clear and handsome face seemed particularly pleasing to the eye.

Yuan Hongjun shared the other half with Da Bai, saying, “You eat too.”

Da Bai gobbled up the hare meat in one bite, which was far from enough for a big tiger. After licking its lips, it went back to warming itself by the fire.

Outside, the rain poured down heavily, but inside the cave, the fire created a cozy and sleep-inducing atmosphere. Da Bai quickly fell asleep, even letting out soft snores.

Fan Yuru looked at Da Bai and said, “I’ll lean against Da Bai to sleep later. He’s warm and soft, so it must be comfortable to sleep against him.”

“That’s a good idea.”

The firelight danced within the cave, casting everything in a warm orange hue.

Fan Yuru looked down at the hare thigh in her hand, hesitated for a moment, then offered one to Yuan Hongjun, “I can’t eat this much. You have one.”

Yuan Hongjun gently pushed her hand away, “Take your time eating. Eat more or you’ll be hungry later.”

Fan Yuru retracted her hand, listening to the crackling sounds of the burning wood, “Hongjun, I heard you started traveling at a very young age. Can you tell me about your experiences?”

“Sure,” Yuan Hongjun organized his thoughts and began to share his adventures. “I started my first journey when I was ten years old. The first place I went to was…”

As Fan Yuru nibbled on the hare thigh and listened to his stories, she felt a sense of contentment and gradually learned more about Yuan Hongjun.

At the Chu Residence.

As evening approached and the rain stopped, a slice of moonlight appeared through the clouds.

Chu Qingzhi opened the fruit box and took out ten kilos of mangoes. She asked Chu Xuhua to send them to Chu Qingyue. She chose the four largest ones for Tang Jinghong and everyone ate the rest.

It was their first time seeing mangoes, and they were excited to try them. The mangoes were very fragrant and sweet, and everyone liked them.

Chu Qingzhi took a mango to the rooftop, sitting on the ridge while eating and quietly thinking about Tang Jinghong.

Chu Xuyuan and Chu Xuyao each took a mango and flew up to the rooftop, sitting beside Chu Qingzhi.

Chu Xuyuan said with concern, “Fifth Sister, you look like you have something on your mind. What is it?”

Chu Xuyao was also very concerned. “That’s right, Fifth Sister. Tell us, maybe we can help you.”

Chu Qingzhi looked at Chu Xuyuan and then at Chu Xuyao. She smiled and asked, “What can the two of you help me with?”

Chu Xuyuan thought for a moment and said, “We might not be able to solve your worries, but we can be listeners and share your burden.”

Chu Qingzhi looked up at the sky. “I’m wondering what your brother Jinghong is up to.”

Chu Xuyao said, “Didn’t he tell you?”

Chu Qingzhi shook her head. “No, he said it’s a secret operation.”

“I see.”

At this moment, the golden-feathered phoenix on Chu Qingzhi’s arm flashed, and a scorching heat spread from her arm.

Jinghong is in danger?!

Chu Qingzhi’s heart tightened slightly. “I have something to do. Tell Father and Mother.”

“Okay.”

Chu Qingzhi flew away.

Once she was distant enough, the golden phoenix on her arm flew out, leading the way.

The golden-feathered phoenix on Tang Jinghong’s body was condensed from Chu Qingzhi’s spiritual power. It could resonate with the golden-feathered phoenix on her body. Following the golden-feathered phoenix would allow her to find Tang Jinghong’s location.

On a certain cliff.

Dozens of people were attacking one person in the middle.

The person, dressed in a black robe, fought heroically. Wielding a sword and with his robe billowing, he kept his attackers at bay.

Outside the circle of combat, a middle-aged man watched coldly, “Tang Jinghong, I advise you to surrender, or else…”

A henchman emerged from the nearby jungle, holding an unconscious child.

“If you don’t give up, this child’s life will be in jeopardy!”

The henchman walked toward the cliff edge with the child, ready to throw him over at the man’s command.

“I’ll count to three. If you don’t stop, this child…” The middle-aged man sneered, “One.”

Tang Jinghong’s sword swept through the air, claiming three lives in one strike.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man’s eyes darkened with rage and he ordered, “Throw the child down now!”

Without hesitation, the henchman threw the child off the cliff.

Tang Jinghong kicked away the assassin in front of him and leaped toward the cliff to catch the child. If the child died, he would be haunted by guilt for the rest of his life.

The middle-aged man walked to the cliff edge and looked down, “Retreat!”

Those people threw all the corpses down the cliff and immediately retreated. Soon, there was no one there.

When Chu Qingzhi arrived at the cliff, all she found were traces of the fight and the chilly mountain breeze.

“Jinghong!”

The golden-feathered phoenix flew down the cliff. Chu Qingzhi panicked. No matter how powerful Jinghong was, he was still a mortal. If he fell down the cliff, would he still be alive?

She stood at the edge of the cliff and looked down. The mist was thick below, and it was pitch-black. She could see nothing.

Spreading her arms, she flew down the cliff.

“Jinghong!”

There was no echo, which showed how deep the cliff was. Chu Qingzhi’s heart was heavy, and she did not dare to think further.

Suddenly, a tree growing horizontally from the cliff caught her attention. She flew towards it and found a piece of torn cloth hanging on a broken branch.

She took the cloth and smelled it. It had Jinghong’s scent.

She sped up her descent.

Passing through the mist, a wave of vapor rose.

Chu Qingzhi felt slightly relieved. If there was water, there might be a chance of survival. Following her golden phoenix, she arrived above a river.

The golden-feathered phoenix dove into the water.

Chu Qingzhi followed closely behind.

After entering the water, the phoenix continued to dive deeper.

Chu Qingzhi swam while observing her surroundings. The water grew darker, and the current stronger. Could there be an underground river here?

A bad feeling crept over her.

As Chu Qingzhi suspected, she not only guessed correctly but also saw the entrance to the underground river.

The phoenix flew into the entrance.

Hoping the river wasn’t too long, Chu Qingzhi prayed silently while searching as quickly as possible.

Fortunately, she quickly swam out of the river.

This was a lake, located at the back of a certain village.

Numerous chaotic footprints surrounded the lake. She swam quickly to the shore with footprints and measured them. Some matched Tang Jinghong’s shoe size.

It seemed Jinghong had made it ashore.

“Keep going!”

The phoenix led Chu Qingzhi into the forest, where they found a mine. Outside the mine, a large pile of disordered rocks lay scattered. The phoenix circled the rocks, refusing to continue forward..
