CH 138

After handing the water to the rabbit-like guide beside him, the sentinel looked over and said, “The water here is clean. I tested it and it is safe to drink. ”

Lei Yao and Bai Lixin looked at each other before stepping out of the bush as Bai Lixin said, “Yes, thank you.”

They came a little closer, and the sentinel could only then see what they looked like. His eyes widened as he exclaimed, “His Imperial Highness Lei Yao.”

Lei Yao had always been mysterious and rarely appeared in public. More so after taking part in a top-secret mission five years ago. However, this did not prevent people from obtaining Lei Yao’s appearance. The planet’s information technology was so high, how could they fail to get an image?

He recognized Lei Yao, and naturally, he recognized Bai Lixin as well. He looked at the slightly thin Bai Lixin and then looked at his arm.

The thighs of Lei Yao’s sentinel weren’t even as thick as his arms. Ah, it was said that this sentinel was only a D-rank attribute. Can he protect the empire’s future king properly or not?

The strong-backed sentinel thought to himself.

Lei Yao only nodded at him, took off his water bag and drew some water, taking a sip before handing it to Bai Lixin, “You must be thirsty. Have a drink.”

Bai Lixin gave a “hmm” and went to sit next to Lei Yao. Just as he was about to sit on the stone, Lei Yao pulled Bailey Xin into his arms with an unexpected tug.

“The ground is cold. Sit on me.” Lei Yao circled Bai Lixin and handed him the water bag.

Bai Lixin didn’t struggle. He took the water bag and drank a few sips, then handed it back to Lei Yao, saying, “Fill it up a bit more. I don’t know if we’ll still come across such clean water on the road afterwards.”

“Okay.”

The sentinel watched the interaction between the two, and then looked at the young girl he was protecting under his arm. His eyes drifted for a moment, his face very torn.

Was there no mistake about these two? Was a man this weak a sentinel?

He asked himself again in his mind. Was this the way to protect the future king of the empire?

Lei Yao and Bai Lixin rested for a while and then intended to continue their journey.

“One moment, please!” The strong-backed sentinel hurriedly called out to the two men who intended to leave.

The two stopped in their tracks, and Bai Lixin asked in confusion, “What is it?”

“We are from the eighth squad. My name is Hu Xiong, and this is my guide, Li Xin. ” Hu Xiong gulped, thinking about how to speak, “This jungle is full of danger. Since we have met, why don’t we go forward together? That way, we can take care of each other, right? ”

He was worried about Emperor Lei Yao’s safety, so he couldn’t say it outright that he wanted to travel together because men have dignity. Emperor Lei Yao would be ashamed!

Deep in his heart, Hu Xiong clenched his fist. For the sake of the interstellar and the empire’s glory. Since the heavens had allowed him to meet the Emperor, he had to protect the Emperor.

Bai Lixin was amused as he looked at the anxious expression on Hu Xiong’s face. The man’s worried eyes glanced at Lei Yao now and then.

Was he afraid that if he was not careful, he would not be able to protect Lei Yao and would let him die?

Lei Yao found it hard to get some time alone with Bai Lixin, and he was not willing to add two more light bulbs. Just when he was about to refuse, Bai Lixin gave him a secret pinch on the waist, which almost made him burst into flames.

Bai Lixin glanced at Hu Xiong and curled one side of his lips into a smile. “Okay, then you can come along.”

Hu Xiong, fearing that the two of them would backtrack, took Li Xin, who was still dazed, onto his shoulders with a big wave of his hand. “Then let’s go!”

Li Xin had to be protected, and her maiden heart had to be taken into account.

Lei Yao should also be protected, and a man’s pride must be taken into account.

“He was a sentinel, so he should act accordingly.” Hu Xiong thought.

Bai Lixin smiled as he saw Hu Xiong’s majestic stance and said, “Hu Xiong, this is Lei Yao, the grand prince. I am Mo Ye. ”

Hu Xiong nodded his head a few times and said, “I know.”

“Is your beast avatar a black bear?” He asked as he looked up and down at the tall-headed Hu Xiong.

“This ……” Hu Xiong hesitated for a moment. He heard that Mo Ye could not take on a beast body.

“Wouldn’t he be ashamed if he mentioned what his beast body was? Or should he not say it? But what if he thinks I’m looking down on him? Men’s minds are so hard to guess!” Hu Xiong thought.

“My beast is not a black bear,” Hu Xiong replied, “it’s a mammoth.”

“Oh.” Bai Lixin smiled, “I thought it was a black bear, but I didn’t expect it to be an even more powerful mammoth.”

“No, no, no,” Hu Xiong hurriedly waved his hands and said, “It’s not powerful at all, really. It’s just about as powerful as an ordinary sentinel’s attack when in human form, so it’s not much use. ”

Overhead, a sob suddenly came from Li Xin, “It’s all my fault that my mental power is too low. If it were higher, you could be more powerful. You have such a strong beast body. I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”

Hu Xiong covered his face. How could he forget to take this lump of tears into account and say, “No, no, no, no need to cry. Without you, I wouldn’t even be able to go to the battlefield. I wouldn’t even have the chance to come to this training base. ”

Bai Lixin saw Hu Xiong’s flustered appearance and turned his head to Lei Yao. He winked and laughed silently. This Hu Xiong was an interesting person.

It was already getting dark, and there was not even a single star in the sky.

The wind blew by, bringing up a clatter of leaves. It was no longer possible to continue in such conditions.

“Shall we first rest here?” Bai Lixin was being held by Lei Yao, and under his feet was a thick layer of fallen leaves.

Lei Yao stopped and looked at Bai Lixin with eyes that still shone blue and dark in the pitch-black night, “Okay, I’m tired from walking all day. We’ll catch up at first light tomorrow. ”

Hu Xiong also took into account Li Xin’s health. He gently breathed a sigh of relief and volunteered when he heard Bai Lixin’s proposal, “I’ll go and find some firewood.”

Lord Lei Yao was a nobleman, so how could he do menial work like collecting firewood?

Mo Ye was a weak man and Li Xin was a weak woman, so he didn’t feel comfortable letting them go out.

“It was better if he did such menial work as collecting firewood.” So thought Hu Xiong.

In a short while, Hu Xiong returned with a bundle of firewood in his arms.

Bai Lixin skillfully lit the fire, and the four people in the impromptu group were able to see the light again.

Each of them was given nothing more than a bag of water, including food before they entered the forest. They had been walking for what seemed like eight hours since then and had not had anything except for a little water.

When they were walking, they didn’t feel hungry, but now that they had stopped, hunger struck them, and Hu Xiong was the one most affected by it.

Hu Xiong covered his rumbling stomach and laughed awkwardly, “I’ll go and find something to eat.”

As soon as he stood up, he was stopped by Lei Yao, “Wait a minute, something is coming.”

Hu Xiong’s eyes flinched at his words, and he hurriedly raised the steel ball hanging out of his arm, shielding all three men behind him.

Lei Yao coughed, “Hu Xiong, that thing is flying from behind us.”

Hu Xiong:”… ”

Hu Xiong hurriedly turned around and was about to shield their backs.

There was a strong wind just ahead of them. The leaves rattled violently, and a giant moth flew behind them at some point.

It was too late! Hu Xiong then saw a white light flashing towards the moth. It flashed a few more times before Hu Xiong saw the moth, which had just been flapping its wings wildly, fall straight to the ground like a broken kite.

Bai Lixin returned to the ground lightly on one foot, daintily waving his hair back, and placing the glittering dagger in his hand back to his waist.

Hu Xiong froze in place, thinking, “This force! I can give it 82%, and the rest will be sent to you in the form of 666. ”

“Moths are attracted to the flame. It seems that if this fire is not put out, there will be more giant moths coming later on. ” Bai Lixin looked at the campfire that had just been lit as he frowned.

“Please, please wait ……” beside the campfire, a soft female voice stopped Bai Lixin’s movement and said, through clenched teeth, “The meat of this giant moth is edible. I can make it. Can I roast it for you, and you eat your fill before putting out the fire? Hu Xiong is already so hungry. ”

Bai Lixin raised his eyebrows and pointed at the giant moth with uncertainty, “This thing is edible?”

Li Xin nodded vigorously, a watery glint in her eyes, “Yes, you can trust me. Hu Xiong is still hungry. Please let me do it. ”

“Grrr ……” As if in response to Li Xin’s words, Hu Xiong’s stomach let out another growl.

Bai Lixin shrugged, “It doesn’t matter to me as long as it’s good. Give me and Lei Yao some too. ” He said, pulling his dagger from his belt, “Need help cutting the ingredients?”

“The meat at the bottom of the giant moth’s neck is the most tender and tasty, but it’s also the least fleshy at this spot. But the meat from the rest of it can be used, it’s just less delicious. ”

Bai Lixin’s ears twitched and he let out a loud laugh, “Never mind, you just cut the most delicate piece of meat. We’ll get full! ”

Just as he spoke, the wind whistled around them once again. Bai Lixin laughed and jumped up with a snap of his legs, drawing the dagger in his hand to shine like a meteor trailing its long tail.

Things kept falling to the ground. Hu Xiong and Li Xin’s eyes nearly fell out when they took a closer look at what had fallen.

The stuff was naturally split into two piles, one of which contained the bodies of the moths, while the other was the palm-sized flesh that Li Xin described at its neck.

The meat was neatly cut into squares and piled up in front of Li Xin like a brick wall.

Lei Yao leaned his back against the tree, his feet casually resting on each other. He propped his hands behind his head and said, “Guide Li Xin, since the ingredients have been delivered to you, why are you still standing there?”

Li Xin suddenly came to her senses and hurriedly put the tender meat on the clean tree branches that Hu Xiong had picked up and set them on the fire to roast.

Hu Xiong wanted to go and help, but his eyes were locked firmly on the gorgeous pop in the sky.

Who said Mo Ye wouldn’t do beast transformation? He didn’t even need to transform, okay?

Mo Ye is just a D-ranked Sentinel? Are you kidding me? If Mo Ye was only a D-ranked Sentinel, could he even be considered a Z?

Hu Xiong blinked his eyes in awe and thought. “My God, this is what a sentinel should look like!”
