Chapter 758 - 731: Cultivators from Beyond the Domain

Since they were new to the Outer Wilderness, unfamiliar with the land, to prevent unforeseen issues, Sun Zhe did not explore the surroundings too much, only finding a flat grassy area at the foot of the mountain as a temporary shelter.

Nightfall came quickly.

Sun Zhe deftly set up the tent, watching Leng Yuening on the side using her phone to "take photos and check in," feeling momentarily speechless and wondering if presidents typically don’t have to do any work.

Soon Sun Zhe had set up two tents.

He and Leng Yuening each stayed in one, separated by seven or eight meters.

"Luckily, I brought enough supplies, otherwise we really would have had to sleep in the wild."

Leng Yuening sat elegantly on a rock, her nylon-clad legs crossed, maintaining her lady-like image even in the wilderness.

"You never said we were coming to this kind of place."

"My bad, my bad." Sun Zhe laughed, not saying more, taking out some jerky and drinks from his ring space and handing them to her.

Being a man, he wouldn’t really quibble with a girl over such trivial matters.

"Let’s eat something first, and then rest early. We’ll hit the road at dawn."

"Alright."

After a simple meal, they wished each other good night, then went into their tents to sleep.

However, Sun Zhe wouldn’t truly sleep.

His mind wouldn’t be at ease enough to sleep soundly in such an unknown place.

His Divine Sense remained active, monitoring the two tents, so any disturbance couldn’t escape his notice.

Inside the tent.

Sun Zhe sat cross-legged, hanging the camp light overhead, while running the Yin Yang Sacred Heart Technique to absorb Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to restore his energy, and looking at the map Xia Shiqing had given him before coming.

Little Dragon Girl’s voice suddenly reached his mind: "You are currently located in the depths of the wilderness, in the Ten Thousand Gorges Forest, which isn’t too far from the Emperor’s Tomb your aunt marked."

"According to your flying speed, if all goes well, you’ll be there in half a day."

Sun Zhe asked, "What if things don’t go smoothly?"

Little Dragon Girl chided, "Are you a contrarian?"

Sun Zhe’s expression turned serious, pointing at the map where the route to the Emperor’s Tomb passes through — Valley of Ten Thousand Graves.

"I’m not being difficult, this place doesn’t sound simple just from the name."

This area on the map was circled in red by Xia Shiqing, with a note beside it indicating high danger.

Little Dragon Girl calmly said, "Know that danger often accompanies opportunity, plus you have me watching over you, what’s there to fear?"

"True."

Sun Zhe laughed, instantly turning theatrical, putting on a flattering demeanor: "In any case, this time I’m relying on Sister Long’s divine prowess."

Although he didn’t ask, Sun Zhe could be certain that Little Dragon Girl had definitely been to the Outer Wilderness before, otherwise she wouldn’t know it so well.

...

Time slowly passed.

The night grew deeper.

As Sun Zhe was planning the upcoming route, there was a sudden light rustling noise outside the tent.

Sun Zhe, having already activated his Divine Sense, naturally knew it was Leng Yuening outside, and said, "You’re not asleep yet?"

Upon hearing, Leng Yuening’s body slightly stiffened outside the tent, nodded gently and said, "Mm, I can’t sleep."

Sun Zhe asked, "Did you need something?"

Leng Yuening took a deep breath, speaking softly, "Um... can you come out and keep me company for a bit?"

She had been hesitating outside Sun Zhe’s tent, wondering whether to ask him to join her, but now being discovered by him, she could only brace herself.

While she was pondering.

A "chi chi" sound suddenly reached their ears.

Sun Zhe unzipped the tent and came out, "What’s wrong?"

Leng Yuening, somewhat embarrassed, turned her face away, "Keep me company to go to the restroom."

Upon hearing, Sun Zhe looked around, seeing the deep darkness that rendered visibility, agreed without further asking and took out a flashlight, heading off.

"Come over here, I also relieved myself here earlier."

Leng Yuening quickly followed, muttering quietly, "Who wants to go where you relieved yourself."

"President Leng, now you’re getting picky? Find your own spot then."

"Hmph, never mind."

"..."

Soon.

Sun Zhe led Leng Yuening to the dense woods a hundred meters away from camp, stopping under an old tree that seemed to have weathered the years.

"Here should be fine."

Leng Yuening hastily went behind the tree, squatting down, hands reaching under her pleated skirt, fingers gripping the edge of her pantyhose, pulling them down, suddenly poking half her face from behind the tree, eyes full of caution showing at Sun Zhe, "Don’t peek."

"Who cares?"

Sun Zhe shrugged, turning his back to the tree, playfully saying, "I like looking at beauties but don’t have such a kink."

Leng Yuening said no more, relievedly letting the water flow.

Sun Zhe faintly heard the "sizzling" water sound carried by the night air, secretly identifying by sound, sighing in amazement at the stream’s force indicating good kidney health.

The odd water sound came intermittently, lasting half a minute before stopping.

Sun Zhe yawned and stretched, about to ask something when Leng Yuening’s voice suddenly sounded from behind the tree, "Uh... I didn’t bring tissues, can you toss some over?"

"Sure, catch."

Sun Zhe naturally realized girls need tissues regardless of the situation, unlike guys who are fine with a shake, and immediately took out a pack of tissues from his ring space and tossed them over.

The sound of plastic tearing was particularly clear in the dark, quiet night.

Listening to the ripping sound, Sun Zhe couldn’t help but picture certain scenes, momentarily becoming distracted by wandering thoughts.
