"Hehe, just average, just average..."

Qin Feng responded with a smile.

"..."

The Phoenix beside him had a gloomy expression.

She felt like she wanted to stab him to death.

Now she understood that Qin Feng had always told her not to go out because he wanted people to misunderstand their relationship, and even praised him for being impressive...

Qin Feng found the team leader and explained the situation to him. Because it was too dangerous, they decided to stop the tour and wanted to go back.

Of course, they would still pay the fee.

Captain Gu was happy to hear that.

They would earn quite a bit of money and have fewer responsibilities; there was no reason to refuse.

Then Qin Feng told him, "The photographer Li Liangsheng is also leaving. He's waiting outside already. He has arranged his own transport, so there's no need to see us off."

"Okay, okay, just take care!"

Captain Gu said with a smile.

Three people left at once without requiring a send-off; this was the best scenario.

Soon.

Qin Feng and Phoenix left the place.

Just a few steps into the snow, Phoenix suddenly stopped, suspiciously remarking, "Wait a minute! Isn't that lady with the big earrings still in the villa? Weren't we supposed to be following her?"

"Uh, well..."

Qin Feng briefly explained the trick he played on her.

Upon hearing this, Phoenix, furious, immediately grabbed his neck, "You, you used me as a puppet, that's too much!!"

"Cough cough, I did it for the greater good. If I told you the real situation, we'd be exposed. You can't even convincingly act like a girlfriend," Qin Feng shrugged.

"...Liar!!"

Phoenix was choked up and extremely frustrated.

The two continued walking.

Since they had to head north, the only option was to climb the mountain.

By midnight.

Due to Phoenix's cultivation still being sealed, she was severely exhausted and couldn't walk anymore.

"Why don't you unseal your powers?"

Qin Feng suggested.

"No, what if we catch up to our enemy and get discovered?"

Phoenix replied.

"..."

Qin Feng was speechless.

Back in the villa, she was thinking about unsealing her powers to secretly follow, but now she feared the enemy might notice.

You can never guess what a woman is thinking.

Qin Feng didn't find it convenient to say that he had already dealt with that person.

There was no rush anyway.

This was a good punishment for her for disturbing him and his wife.

"Alright then! I suppose our opponent, being sealed in cultivation, won't travel throughout the night either. Let's rest here tonight!"

Qin Feng said.

He collected some firewood and started a fire, clearing a spot.

The weary Phoenix, feeling the warmth of the campfire, was extremely comfortable and fell asleep without much thought.

Qin Feng also fell asleep soon.

Unknowingly, the campfire slowly extinguished...

The next day.

Bright sunlight shone on the snow, reflecting specks of light.

In a daze, Qin Feng felt something clinging desperately to him, continuously burrowing into his embrace.

If you're not on *, you're viewing a copy.

When he opened his eyes.

It turned out that Phoenix was desperately clinging to him.

"Hey, hey!"

Qin Feng woke Phoenix, saying, "Let me clarify, this is not my fault!"

"Why would I blame you..."

Phoenix also opened her eyes groggily, still feeling a bit cold, and burrowed further into Qin Feng's embrace.

At this moment.

She finally came to her senses, immediately lifted her head to look.

Suddenly, seeing her upper body burrowing into Qin Feng's embrace, hands tightly wrapped around his body, and legs entangled with his...

Instantly.

Phoenix's face turned bright red, and she sat up abruptly, exclaiming, "Shameless!"

"..."

Qin Feng was speechless and said, "Fine, I knew women are unreasonable creatures. You were the one taking advantage of me all night, and now you're calling me lewd, tsk tsk..."

Phoenix blushed deeply.

There was no choice.

It was too cold after the campfire went out last night, and then feeling a burst of warmth beside her, she unconsciously moved closer.

The two got up and continued on their journey.

Another day passed.

Phoenix was breathlessly tired, sitting on the ground not wanting to move, and asked Qin Feng, "Speaking of which, aimlessly searching like this, is it useful? Who knows where he would go."

"I heard he went to a village in the North Country Forest Mountain."

Qin Feng lied.

"North Country Forest Mountain has villages? Impossible! Although North Country Forest Mountain is in the Hidden World, there are not many people living there because, although it is rich in Spiritual Energy, the resources are too scarce with very few spiritual flowers and herbs."

Phoenix said.

Qin Feng couldn't bother to explain since it was already a lie.

He stood up, looking at the mountain range ahead, and said, "Over that snow mountain, we will reach our destination, let's go!"

"Walk again? I just sat down..." Phoenix complained.

"Alright then! Let's rest here for the night."

Qin Feng said.

And like last night, they made a fire to rest again.

Sleeping was the same.

Falling asleep only to have Qin Feng find out early in the morning that Phoenix, like before, was tightly hugging him...

"Just to be clear, I'm a married man, please restrain yourself. If you like me, I'm sorry, but you can only keep your feelings to yourself. I only love my wife."

Qin Feng got up and said to the blushing Phoenix.

"Who likes you!"

Phoenix retorted with a flushed face.

There was no choice.

She didn't know what it was, but Qin Feng's body was like a warm sun, unconsciously drawing her in during the cold nights.

Unbeknownst to her, Qin Feng possessed the Separation Fire Essence, inherently being a bundle of warm fire.

After eating, the two began trekking over the mountains.

The peaks were too steep.

Phoenix absolutely couldn't climb over, Qin Feng said to her, "We might as well unseal it."

"No way, the other is a Fifth Grade Grandmaster, we cannot rashly reveal ourselves, once exposed we can only fight head-on, and we're not their match at all, we can only outwit them," Phoenix said.

"Uh, worst case, after we cross the snow mountain, we can reseal it, it's not a big deal."

Qin Feng said.

"No!"

Phoenix refused again, giving him a look, "When you seal it, you'll take advantage of me!"

"..."

Qin Feng was instantly speechless.

It turned out that was what she was concerned about.

It's just pressing a few acupoints, although those acupoints are close to some intimate front parts of her body, but to be so cautious...

"So what do you suggest we do then!" Qin Feng said, spreading his hands.

"I see you're quite physically strong, you could carry me," Phoenix mused.

"..."

Qin Feng was helpless.

There was no choice.

Now this was the only option left.

Carrying her was a small matter for Qin Feng.

Soon.

Qin Feng carried her, dashing up the steep snowy slope.

His agile steps, as if on flat ground, astonished Phoenix.

Not long after.

The two reached the top of the snow mountain.

At the summit.

Looking ahead at the vast snow, it was extremely magnificent.

Ahead was the North Country Forest Mountain, belonging to the Hidden World, rarely visited by ordinary people as it is too perilous, with extremely low temperatures, constantly snowing.

Like the forests of Da'an Ridge, there were mountains everywhere, trees everywhere, snow everywhere.

What was different.

The temperature here was even lower, and the entire tree branches were enveloped by ice and snow.

The vast North Country Forest Mountain, all dressed in white!
