The group's beloved wife: She is the phoenix, she is the king

Chapter 626 Going deep into the hinterland

Once a problem is discovered, it is of course necessary to get to the root of the problem as soon as possible.

"Because..." Fan Nuoxi paused and explained seriously, "You are responsible for many things in Shuangyan Pavilion. You have the right to know and choose what my friends and I do here. I don't want to lie to you, and your wishes are very important to me. It doesn't matter even if you refuse me."

"But sister - I can only be considered a spirit here, not Conghuan in the true sense." Little Conghuan was touched and conflicted.

So...my sister's kindness to me comes from the bottom of her heart and not because of him?

"So what? Since you call me sister and you are so cute and sweet-spoken, I would not bear to let you feel that I truly love you." Fan Nuoxi reached out and pinched Xiao Conghuan's face, chuckling.

These words sound very pleasant to the ears of others.

Xiao Conghuan couldn't help but burst into tears, "Sister, I'd better take you there first, you take care of your things first."

She knows so little about me, but she treats me so well. I should tell her more about myself.

I will definitely mention this to my sister when she is done with her work.

It’s just… I haven’t seen her for a while, why has she become like this?

As Xiao Conghuan led the way, he couldn't help but let his mind wander.

He opened the door to the medicinal spring with familiarity, turned into a bead and embedded it in the mechanism, and said reluctantly, "Sister, you go and do your work. I will guard this place well."

Fan Nuoxi tapped the beads with her fingers, "Okay, but don't eat all the food I gave you at once, or it will get stuck in your teeth."

"I understand." The beads became visibly redder, and her voice was a little shy.

Medicine spring.

Dongfang Junyan looked at the majestic snow-white palace in front of him, and he felt inexplicably relieved.

Fan Nuoxi led Dongfang Junyan to the second floor with ease. Although Dongfang Junyan looked around along the way, he knew that they were brought here by her definitely because of their special physical conditions.

But he still couldn't help but be curious about where the medicinal springs of various colors came from and what their uses were. He could only feel that these things were not simple.

The others were equally curious, but as they were still in the bracelet, they could only follow Fan Nuoxi as she walked and see the nearby scenery.

darkroom.

Looking at the familiar medicinal spring in front of him, Dongfang Junyan couldn't help but recall the scene of that day, and his cheeks felt slightly hot.

"Nuoxi, today...are we going to stay here for a few hours?"

"Of course not these ones. This place is too small, and it's not suitable. It's easy to cause trouble." Fan Nuoxi looked around and understood.

Dongfang Junyan felt a little nervous and expectant.

Then...won't Nuoxi give acupuncture to everyone?

But... I don't want her to see other people's bodies...

Perhaps she saw what Dongfang Junyan was thinking, but she didn't explain. She just curled the corners of her mouth slightly, as if she had it all planned out.

In a moment, the dark room in front of him revealed a larger room as Fan Nuoxi explored it.

Before they even stepped in, a comfortable yet unbearable breath completely swept over the two of them, and the people in the bracelet felt it as if they were there themselves.

Everything in front of him, the colorful clouds and mists, easily obscured Dongfang Junyan's vision, making it difficult for him to see. Fan Nuoxi considerately took out a blindfold and put it on him.

"Hold my hand tightly and follow me closely." Fan Nuoxi held Dongfang Junyan's hand and said gently.

The other hand took this opportunity to add a restriction to the bracelet, allowing the person in the bracelet a chance to breathe, but also cutting off their view to the outside.

Dongfang Junyan, who was temporarily unable to see, felt warm all over after being held by Fan Nuoxi. He was actually able to slowly accept the pervasive power.

Fan Nuoxi, however, was moving freely in the clouds and mist as if nothing had happened. If she hadn't been concerned about Dongfang Junyan, she would have been even faster.

After the two walked away hand in hand, the door leading to this place in the dark room closed automatically, as if no one had ever disturbed them.

The road conditions were unpredictable. Dongfang Junyan was worried but he didn't want Fan Nuoxi to worry, so he kept suppressing his emotions. But he didn't know that the road he was walking on was the easiest to walk on. There were no other traces on the shoe surface except for some dirt.

Fan Nuoxi's shoes had come into close contact with many things along the way, and "tattered" is not enough to describe the hardships of just one or two of them.

At this time, she was walking barefoot, and the things in the clouds and mist brushed against her feet, leaving traces one after another.

Behind them, the places they had passed by revealed their original appearance one by one, no longer shrouded in clouds and mist.

It can be vaguely seen that those places are either drifting wood, or bluestone slabs, or crushed thorns, or broken bridges... There are rarely any easy roads to walk on.

After walking for about two hours, the two arrived at their destination one after the other.

Fan Nuoxi looked at his muddy trouser legs and blood-stained feet, and put on his clean new shoes as if nothing had happened. After simply getting them dirty a little, he decided to stop.

Seeing that Dongfang Junyan's legs and feet were dirty but had no scars, he took off Dongfang Junyan's blindfold with confidence and covered them with his hands.

After Dongfang Junyan had adapted to the light here, Fan Nuoxi slowly put down her hands that were constantly being brushed by his eyelashes.

As far as the eye can see, there are clouds and mists of various colors, and some animal heads are scattered in various places, revealing pool water of various colors. The color of the pool water is changeable, which makes people feel mysterious and not easily touchable.

At first glance, it seems that there is no end to the pool, and I don’t know where the water comes from or where it goes.

"Nuoxi, where is this place? What are we doing here?" Although Dongfang Junyan had some guesses in his mind, he still couldn't help but ask.

"This is also a medicinal spring, called the Wansheng Pool. Each type of water in the pool has different effects, and is far more powerful than what you can see outside. You all... need to stay here, in a certain order, and soak in each color of water for a certain period of time, and practice cultivation or acupuncture as a supplement."

Fan Nuoxi walked to a place and patted it gently. A stone tablet engraved with "Wansheng Pool" rose from the ground, and the clouds and mist also became a little lighter.

Then, Fan Nuoxi released everyone in the bracelet.

After everyone got used to the light and temperature here, they looked at everything in front of them somewhat at a loss.

"Sister, are you sure... that so many of us have to soak in this pool?" Meng Yujie felt unwell.

Mu Bai blushed and said, "Yes...sister-in-law...it's not a good idea to have so many of us here like dumplings being cooked in a pot..."

Others also hesitated to speak.

Fan Nuoxi chuckled, "What are you thinking about? I didn't say it was here."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, yet they were curious about what they were going to do.

"What you see in front of you is just a gate. Without any guidance, even if the king of heaven comes, he will be trapped here."

"This pool of water can save lives, but it can also kill people."

"Stand here first to get used to the temperature here. I'll take you into the real Wansheng Pond after I do some research."

"Don't wander around!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Fan Nuoxi turned into a stream of light and flew into the clouds.

Although they knew that Fan Nuoxi was quite capable, they were still a little worried.

After getting used to everything around them, they began to observe the surrounding environment.

The scene before them was extremely shocking.

After Fan Nuoxi disappeared into the clouds, ripples appeared in the colorful water in front of him. It could be vaguely seen that the water in the pool was an illusion and not real.

The clouds and mist in other places also gradually faded a little, and one could vaguely see how dangerous the environment under the clouds and mist was.

There might be a group of wild beasts with black eyes glaring at them, or there might be thickets of thorns, or there might be cliffs, or there might be broken bridges, or there might be some blue and black skeletons floating in a pool of stagnant water... There was no way to see where there was a way to get here.

"It's so strange. I can't see any power fluctuations in these things, but they feel very dangerous. I feel like my strength won't be used at all if I look at them a few more times." Ruochen touched his arm, which was a little cold, and the blue light in his eyes flashed away.

Dongfang Junyan looked at his shoes, then at the scenes, and couldn't help but recall the feeling of being led by Fan Nuoxi just now. "When Nuoxi led me, I couldn't see anything, but I could feel that the road under my feet was unusual. I think there are many formations or mechanisms here that we don't know about. We'd better not act rashly."
