Chapter 264: Escorting Mission (3) (2/2)
”Why do I feel like I'm seeing a drama right now.”
”You can just say it like that.” Prince Lin San was not willing to pay attention to those people and instead looked out to the forest. They had just come out of the city and will soon reach the border.
At that time, they could rely on their identity as escort to pass the gate.
”What kind of place is the gate?” Lin Xiao asked.
Pfft!
They turned their head and saw a young man standing there. He didn't look much older than Lin Xiao but he was wearing thick fur clothes as if it was cold there. When the temperature was so hot like this, his appearance did look strange.
But cultivator was not one to pay attention to temperature. With their Qi, they could easily block their sense and even if the temperature was slightly colder or hotter, it made no difference to them.
Lin Xiao furrowed his brows. ”Is there anything wrong, Brother?”
”No, it's just a bit funny that you're asking what kind of place the gate is.” The young man shook his head and grinned. ”It can't be your first time seeing the gate, is it?”
”It's the first time.”
”Wow, you must be living in such secluded area!”
Lin Xiao: ”…” while it was also true, his fake identity was that of a noble child. And the Hu Family was from Hua Lan Kingdom, right?
Just as Lin Xiao was thinking for a way to retort, Prince Lin San had stepped forward. ”It's like this, he fainted when we're passing the gate back then, so he didn't see how majestic the gate can be. Haih, my twin brother is really troublesome.”
Lin Xiao: ”…” no! My image.
Princess Lan Yi Hua was trying so hard to restrain her laughter when she saw Lin Xiao was trying hard to not retort. It was clear that he was unable to accept that he was reduced to weaklings in Prince Lin San's word.
As if he would faint that easily.
The young man nodded in understanding. ”I see. There's really nothing special about the gate honestly. You can just see it as a high wall of stones with people guarding from both sides. It'll only open twice a day so you need to be in the right place at the right time.”
”Thank you for your explanation...” Lin Xiao's tone was a bit rigid.
”Oh I haven't introduced myself. I'm Wei Mu, a traveler and also mercenary.”
”Hu Xiao.”
”Hu San.”
”This two are Xiao Hua and also Hei Ye.” Lin Xiao took the opportunity to introduce the other two to keep them not speaking to others easily.
The young man named Wei Mu looked at them with curiosity.
