Chapter 348 - 348: Teleportation, Unlimited
The situation was one-sided. The soldiers of Great Xia were unstoppable. As Xiaoxiao watched from the space, her vision finally darkened and she fell.
The space scanned where Xiaoxiao was anxiously and found that Xiaoxiao was only in a deep sleep. Only then did it let out a humane sigh of relief.
Xiaoxiao did not sleep well. It was as if she had seen a terrifying scene in her dream. Her brows could not relax as she muttered, “They deserved to die… I’m doing what needs to be done…”
Killing was not so easy for Xiaoxiao, who was used to modern life. When she closed her eyes, she seemed to be able to see herself holding a blood-stained sword and pulling them out of a stranger’s body. She seemed to be able to smell the strong smell of blood. This smell was so fishy that she wanted to vomit in her dreams.
The voice in the space became much gentler. [Master, I thank you on behalf of the living beings in this world who were spared the pain of war because of you. This time, they will definitely be able to live a stable and happy life.]
Xiaoxiao, who was sleeping, snorted and changed her posture.
She did not know that at this moment, a faint light was gathering around her body. With every breath she took, this light quietly entered her body. With every inhalation and exhalation, her face became visibly rosier.
She was exhausted. Even though she had time to rest, she had almost exhausted her energy from worrying and using the various functions of the space almost non-stop. However, although she was tired, she did not forget to set it at the slowest speed before falling asleep.
Because she was tense, Xiaoxiao did not sleep well. About five minutes later, she opened her eyes again. This time, when she woke up, the Xiongnu people had already been pressed back hundreds of kilometers by the soldiers of Great Xia. She could vaguely see the Xiongnu Capital City.
[Master, the current total points are 100,230. It meets the requirements for leveling up. Do we want to level up?]
Xiaoxiao rubbed her eyes and looked at the hazy city tower in the yellow sand.
She nodded. [Of course.]
[Upgrade successful. Current space level: Level 30.]
[The time flow in the farmland has increased. The current speed is 30 times!] [The time flow in the ranch has increased. The current speed is 30 times!] [The time flow in the water body has increased. The current speed is 30 times!] [The current adjustable speed of the Time Hut is plus or minus 30 times!]
[Range Control ability upgraded!]
[The Space Exchange Mall category is updated.]
[New function obtained: Spatial projection. The projection range is within 30×30.]
[You have received a brocade pouch for leveling up. Current total points are
280.]
[Master, do you want to open the brocade pouch?]
It was what she was waiting for: [Hurry up!]
Hidden reward, here I come!
Xiaoxiao rubbed her palms together and heard the space notification with high fighting spirit—
[The brocade pouch has been successfully activated! Host, please make a choice.]
[One, 1×1 ranch speed times 10.]
[Two, ixi water speed times 10.]
[Three, Teleport.]
[Four, Hidden reward.]
Xiaoxiao’s hands trembled slightly as she moved towards the fourth reward. She clicked on the hidden reward. Perhaps her path home was about to open, but what should she do? The third reward was also very attractive!
Or should she get to know it first?
She said to the space: [Explain the third reward.]
The space told her: [The teleportation function can be used in conjunction with a Level 20 NPC projection. It can allow you to instantly appear where the NPC is. It consumes 10,000 yuan per use. There is no limit to using it one day.]
“Unlimited” was such a beautiful word.
Moreover… Looking out of the space, Xiaoxiao’s gaze accurately found the familiar back view in the crowd. She asked herself: Is it really that important to go back?
[I choose the third option.]
The soldiers of Great Xia approached gradually. The Xiongnu soldiers finally reacted—
“Oh no, they didn’t follow us to hunt us down! They want to attack the imperial city!”
“Damn it!” The second prince was furious. “The Crown Prince of Great Xia didn’t mention any of this!”
That was because the Crown Prince did not know either. He only found out that Rong Yan chased after Xiongnu. The only crimes he could think of were “greedy for success” and “impulsiveness in doing things”. It was even more far-fetched to say that his actions were “out of anger for a beauty”. The person in the courtyard had yet to recover.
It had been more than a month since Rong Yan left the border city. It was obviously impossible to trap the Crown Prince for so long, and the news of the soldiers’ recovery could not be hidden forever. Hence, the patients in the courtyard had gradually recovered and left, and the Crown Prince had regained his freedom.
The first thing he did after coming out was to send people to keep an eye on Xiaoxiao’s location. However, as time passed, that woman still did not appear. Although the Crown Prince felt that there was still a long way to go and she could not escape his grasp, the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Today, he brought his personal guards over aggressively and insisted on confirming her illness.
Deputy General Yu and the Yun Guards blocked the courtyard door, determined not to let the Crown Prince go forward again.
The Crown Prince said with a straight face, “Why? I don’t even have the right to care about a patient?”
Deputy General Yu was straightforward. “It’s fine if Your Highness cares about others, but it’s better to keep a distance from your future sister-in-law.” The Crown Prince felt disgusted at the thought of Xiaoxiao’s face that was covered in pustules and rashes. When he heard this, he felt even more offended and was directly angry.
“How dare you, Yu Qian!”
Deputy General Yu knew that he had misspoken, but the most important thing now was not to let the Crown Prince disturb and hurt Miss Xiaoxiao. Hence, he straightened his neck and refused to let him in.
The Crown Prince had been supported by all the civil and military officials in the capital since he was young. The Yan Family had done their best to support him, but he was repeatedly frustrated at the border. That nameless anger had long burned to his head. “Do you still have me, the Crown Prince, in your eyes.” Deputy General Yu was very brave when he went into battle to kill the enemy, but he was really poor at arguing. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have stayed at the border for more than 10 years and didn’t want to return to the Imperial Capital. He hated those civil servants who picked on him the most. Every time he encountered such a thing, he just wanted to cover their mouths and drag them to a corner to beat them up.
However, the person in front of him was the Crown Prince. He could not be beaten or scolded. Deputy General Yu gritted his teeth and crossed his arms, standing like a door god.
The Crown Prince took a deep breath and looked at Shao Lin. The latter’s eyes rolled, and when he stood up again, he looked unforgiving. “Half of the other patients have recovered, and the others are also getting better. Why is she the only one who claims that she can’t come out? His Highness the Crown Prince sympathizes with the patients, but you deliberately misinterpreted the meaning. This makes me wonder if there’s anything wrong with the people in this house.”
“Aiya, could it be that he’s a spy with ulterior motives like that chef back then?!”
The matter of the chef was also considered a thorn in the Crown Prince’s heart. As the saying went, one had to look at the master before beating a dog. Third Brother even dealt with his people so openly. Wasn’t this a clear slap to his face?
In that case, don’t blame him for giving him a taste of his own medicine!
Shao Lin was used to being a lackey. He could guess the Crown Prince’s thoughts from his expression. Hence, he placed his hands on his hips and shouted, “Someone, smash open this door.. I want to see what kind of monster is hiding inside!”
