Chapter 4207 Go Separate Ways
Feng Jiu took a look, then she looked around, and then she said: “If we follow Old Predecessor Wang’s instructions, we should go this way.” She pointed to the front left. “We are still in the outermost area, so it’s not dangerous.” Wang Yu said, looking at the lush trees around them. There was no road around and the weeds were half a person’s height. As there was more rainfall in the forest, the ground under their feet was also very wet. He took a look and saw that his boots were covered in a lot of mud. As soon as he lifted his foot, he felt some weight on it.
Feng Jiu looked at him, then she smiled and said: “Have you been here before?”
“I have only been to the outermost area with my family clan, I’ve never been inside before.” Wang Yu replied. “Then let’s go! Let’s walk in that direction and take a look!” She knew that it would be very difficult to find the Ancient Nine Tails Spirit Fox in this vast forest, but there was nothing she could do and she could only rely on luck.
If they were lucky, they would find it very soon. If they were unlucky, they wouldn’t be able to find it even if they stayed in the forest for several years. Du Fan walked ahead to explore the way while the others followed him. The weeds as tall as half a man’s height were trampled on as they created a path while walking. Other than Du Fan, Feng Jiu and Leng Shuang, whose cultivation levels were higher, Wang Yu and Ye Feifei stepped into mud with every step they took, and each step took quite a bit of effort from them. On the contrary, Feng Jiu, Du Fan and Leng Shaung’s footsteps were very light, as if each step they took was walking on cotton. They only had a little mud on the soles of their feet but there was no mud around the edges of their boots. The forest was very large with trees everywhere. They walked for a long time but didn’t meet anyone. However, as they walked through the forest, they occasionally startled some poisonous snakes. But before they got too close, the poisonous snakes would hiss and scurry off. On their first night in the forest, they found a place to rest and spent the night simply. The next morning, Feng Jiu said to Du Fan: “In addition to finding the Nine Tails Spirit Fox, I want to use this opportunity to give Feifei some experience. I am confident in your strength, I don’t need to worry about you even if you encounter a situation here. So, let’s split into two groups! You take Feifei while I take Leng Shuang and Wang Yu. Whoever finds the Nine Tails Spirit Fox first can use the messaging jade token to inform each other.”
Du Fan glanced at Ye Feifei when he heard this, then he nodded: “Very well, I will take her with me! Master, please be careful.”
Feng Jiu smiled: “Don’t worry, it’s not the first time I’ve entered this kind of forest. You however need to be more careful, she doesn’t have much experience in forest survival.” Feng Jiu glanced at Ye Feifei, then said to Du Fan: “You need to let her actually learn something, but also don’t allow her to be on the verge of death. You have to control the situation well.” “I understand.” Du Fan responded, then said: “Then we will get going first.”
“Don’t worry Master, I will learn well from Brother Du.” Ye Feifei said, then after the two of them bowed, she followed Du Fan and went into the forest.
After she watched them leave, Feng Jiu smiled and said to the two people beside her: “Let’s go!”
As Wang Yu watched them leave, he couldn’t help but ask: “Isn’t the map with Du Fan? We don’t have a map, so once we get inside wouldn’t we…”
Feng Jiu smiled and said: “I have three copies of the map. Du Fan has one, Leng Shuang has one and I have one. Don’t worry! We won’t get lost inside.”
