Chapter 378 New Developments

Wu Long and Feng Yi spent some more time in bed, thought it was an army travel bed, for the first time it felt like the most luxurious bedding to her as she lay in it with him. He told her a little about their travels. She heard a little in very general terms and some funny little episodes from Luo Mingyu but the latter was not sure what was fine to tell her and what was not from the more sensitive parts of the journey, which caused a little awkwardness between the two.

'Haha, Min'er probably doesn't trust her. Well, if I say it's in her style it is'

Wu Long chuckled as he understood whose hand was it likely that caused Luo Mingyu to hesitate in sharing the information. Shen Min was the most cautious type of all his women, and the last to put her guard down to the newest members of the Dao Family.

As he finished telling her the story of his year-long journey, it was gradually getting time to get up, Feng Yi somewhat shyly looked to the side where some spare bedsheets and bed covers were thrown as they slept on spare ones that were not soaking wet.

"You really didn't hold back at all, I thought I'd go crazy"

She chuckled, bringing a smile to his face.

"Believe me, I did"

Her eyes widened as she turned and looked him in the eyes and saw he was serious.

"But I might have gone a bit too far, that was your fault though"

"Mine?"

She became flabbergasted by the accusation to which he innocently spread his hands.

"Who told you to make me so excited?"

"You!"

Her eyes narrowed at him, causing a wide grin to cross his face.

"Haha, see? You're at it again. Do you want a continuation?"

He chuckled and she quickly turned to face away.

"Are you crazy? I'm sure I already am the talk of the camp, but any more time in here and there would be no place for me to go without rumors"

"Haha, who cares?"

"I do"

"Hahaha, hm, by the way, why is there only Royal Army under your command? Where's the regular army and your family's troops?"

Wu Long recalled the sight of the banners when he arrived at the camp as he watched her stand up to dress. Her slim and toned body with the curves in right places, her perky breasts slightly swaying and bouncing with her movements as her round and supple ass was propped by long and elegant slender legs, all of it was reflected in his eyes as she did not hide her body as usual.

But her expression darkened at the question as her eyes revealed a sharp look.

"It has been happening for the past half a year. The Royal House has been putting pressure on Father using the incident of our little brother as an excuse.

As a result our family troops have been partially reformed into the Royal Army which has been expanded almost to rival the regular army, and the other part of our troops are now stationed in isolation from each other on the borders to the Tuamei and Tingren Kingdoms, mainly the latter.

Big Brother and I were also separately sent out on demonic beast subjugations to different corners of the country with the Royal Army under command, and only a small squad of Feng family soldiers and officers"

She explained as she washed up and started putting on her clothes.

"Hmm, as I thought, I've received reports that there was pressure on General Feng, but did not know it reached this level"

Her voice resounded in the tent along with his laughter.

Wu Mengqi was sitting with Song Lingfei at the place the meeting with Wu Long and the Crown Prince was held in the sect. Not far from the gazebo stood two old people. One was Chu Ren who accompanied Song Lingfei and one was Butler Bang who came to accompany Wu Mengqi.

"... Our Young Lady has been known to be the beauty of the Wood Spirit Emprie"

"Her Highness's beauty was known all of the Azure Eagle Empire"

"Our Young Lady..."

"Her Highness..."

The two bickered like this every time they met, while keeping their faces straight and looking at the ladies. Other servants prefered not to be around them at those times as static electricity was running sparks between the two old men. Neither of them already remembered which remark praising who was that started this, and neither of them cared.

"Our Young Lady-...! Hm? What is it?"

A servant nervously standing not far from them caught Butler Bang's attention, and two pairs of sharp eyes looked at the poor sod who started trembling from the pressure.

"Um..."

He reported in a weak voice and both old men stared at him for a while as he almost died on the spot, turning to both approach and whisper into the ear of their respective young lady.

Yu Huan sat on the wooden floor of the open corridor, a cup of tea long cold standing not far from her sitting pillow. She was in a courtyard, looking on as Bi Rui was swinging her spear, learning and practicing the new technique Wu Long gave her.

"Haa~"

She sighed heavily, and Bi Rui's eyes turned in her direction for a moment while not stopping her training.

"What is it?"

She finally asked with a little impatience as it seemed this was not the first sigh she was hearing, which bothered her enough to distract her from the spear art.

"It's nothing..."

Yu Huan shook her head causing Bi Rui to slightly groan.

"... hey, what kind of person is Mister Wu?"

As she asked, looking down at the snowy ground she noticed a sudden silence, the sounds of spear cutting the airflow completely cut off. As she looked up she saw Bi Rui's round eyes staring at her with her head turned to her in a frozen pose.

Her eyes full of shock then narrowed down with a smile that gave Yu Huan an uncomfortable feeling.

"Hoho~ Huan'er..."

As she placed her spear vertically and stood straight, seemingly about to speak, there was a knock coming from the the moon gate to the courtyard.

And with Bi Rui's "Come in", Wei Lan's figure showed up as she smiled at the two.

"Wu Long is going to be contacting us through a Long-Distance Communication Formation soon, it seems there are new developments to discuss"

She said and the two looked at each other, and immediately prepared to follow the beauty.
