Rebirth Of The Queen - Chapter 365
Fu Xie Lan’s Violet eyes continued to observe the direction they were going, occasionally turning left and right just to make sure no one was approaching them.
Until they were only tens of meters away from the parapet.
“Stop,” shouted Fu Xie Lan suddenly.
“Reduce your speed, a few people are gathering up ahead,” she said again and was immediately nodded by the twins from the Wang family and the others.
Moving slowly but surely while looking around, they finally stopped about twenty meters from the parapet.
What Fu Xie Lan had previously guessed happened at this moment.
Several people in red robes appeared to be standing right near the parapet. They were all people from the Jun family clan and seemed to be on alert.
Chou glanced at Zhou, “How is it?” he whispered.
“We’ll wait for them to leave.”
“That can’t be Zhou, waiting for them to leave is the same as waiting for a miracle to come,” Chou replied.
“But we also can’t break through, Chou. Look! There are a lot of them,” said Zhou.
The two brothers’ conversation reached the ears of Fu Xie Lan, and the others.
“How did you guys get past that wall?” Xue Ning asked turning to Chou, her brow furrowed in confusion.
“Through the underground tunnel, Miss,” Chou replied in a half-whisper.
“Huh?”
“You’ll see later, too,” said the man again without taking his eyes off the people guarding the Clan borders.
Hearing that, Xue Ning no longer asked.
Silent in their respective positions, all observing the people who were guarding in front there.
While on the other hand, Fu Xie Lan who heard Chou’s words could understand. As expected, the Vampires couldn’t possibly climb over the wall or jump over the very high parapet.
It’s not that they can’t jump at heights, it’s just that given the height of the parapet, it seems impossible. Even those with wings had to fly even higher to get past it.
Until several hours had passed, the air temperature had reached its lowest point at night. Not a single one of them moved from their place, neither from the side of Fu Xie Lan and company nor from the side of the people from the Jun family clan.
If this continues, how long will they have to wait? Fu Xie Lan couldn’t let this happen, they had to start moving. Silence like that can not give any certainty.
Fu Xie Lan moved backward, matching Zhou’s position. “Where is the tunnel you used to go through?” asked Fu Xie Lan in a half-whisper.
“Huh?
“Just answer, there’s no need to be so surprised.”
“Over there Miss, right under that person’s feet,” Zhou replied, pointing in the direction in question.
“To get to the Wang family clan’s territory, is there no other way than that tunnel?” Fu Xie Lan asked not taking her eyes off the figure Zhou pointed to a few seconds ago.
“There is, Miss. But it’s very far from here. And to pass that path, we must return to the gate and comb the outskirts,” replied the man.
“Huh?”
Seeing Fu Xie Lan’s surprise, Zhou spoke again.
“Didn’t the gatekeeper tell Miss about the map of the path leading to the four clans territory?” the man asked.
“Map?”
“The gatekeeper didn’t say anything to us,” she added.
“Really? They don’t usually Miss that. Maybe you didn’t hear what they were saying, Miss,” Zhou said again.
“I don’t know, maybe so,” Fu Xie Lan replied.
“No wonder you got lost in the Jun family clan’s territory. Fortunately, you and your friends met the two of us on the way,” Zhou said.
“If such a path exists, why are you two in this territory as well? Would t it be safer if you went through the path provided?” asked Fu Xie Lan, unable to contain her curiosity.
“We didn’t come from the gate, Miss,” Zhou replied simply.
Fu Xie Lan who heard such an answer was dissatisfied. An answer that raised more questions in her mind. And there was no way she could keep asking the man anymore.
Because according to her what she just did was more than enough.
“You said the underground tunnel was on the left, right?” said Fu Xie Lan wanting to make sure.
Zhou just nodded.
“Alright, I’ll lead them to the right and into the forest,” said Fu Xie Lan.
“But, Miss…”
“Trust me. And during that time, you all move quickly into the tunnel, I’ll catch up later,” said Fu Xie Lan, cutting the man off.
“Let me do it, Xie Lan,” Xue Ning chimed in. The girl had been listening since earlier. Her position was also very close to the whereabouts of Fu Xie Lan and Zhou.
Hearing Xue Ning’s voice, the six of them immediately turned to the origin of the voice.
“Let me lure them,” she said again. Fu Xie Lan who heard the voice again fell silent.
Is this just a feeling or has she changed? Since coming out of the Dark Zore, the cowardly Xue Ning he knows has changed drastically. Who usually would only hide behind her if something happened, now the girl had become even more daring.
Was the change in his attitude caused by his increasing strength? Who knows.
“Aren’t you afraid?” asked Fu Xie Lan.
“Of course not, Xie Lan. What’s there to be afraid of? Even Elder Huang Bao once said that a…”
“But what you will face later is not just one person,” said Fu Xie Lan immediately cutting off Xue Ning’s words.
She did that not without reason, Fu Xie Lan knew exactly what the girl was going to say. And she didn’t want the two Vampires with them to hear it and feel offended.
“I know Xie Lan. I’ve been overhearing the conversation between the two of you earlier. So I know what to do,” Xue Ning said in one breath.
“Not. You better do it Ju Xian, or you, Xue Ying,” said Wan Lie among the three figures in front of him.
Hearing his name being called, Ju Xian and Xue Ying gasped and then exchanged glances.
“Why are you silent? Letting Xue Ning go there will only add to the burden,” Wan Lie said to the two figures.
“Why don’t you do it?” Xue Ying replied.
“I’m just afraid, if I go forward then the wall will break too.”
“Ah, wouldn’t that be great? You don’t have to go through underground tunnels anymore,” he added with a chuckle.
“No, sir. Don’t do that,” said Chou immediately, taking the conversation of the three wizarding men seriously.
“You guys shut up,” Fu Xie Lan rebuked.
“I don’t allow anyone goes there. Even Xue Ning.”
“And I do not accept rejection,” she added again in a voice so cold, sounding absolute and undeniable.
