Quick travel: the leisurely life of cannon fodder

When Mu Xi and the Elf King left the secret realm, it was already a year later, and the news about the Phoenix Secret Realm was spreading like wildfire outside.

“What the hell!!!!!”

"That was a close call! That was a close call! Luckily we ran fast and disguised ourselves when we got out. Otherwise, who knows what would have happened if we had been caught? I wonder what all these monks are thinking of surrounding the entrance to the secret realm, if they aren't going in?"

As soon as Mu Xi came out of the secret realm, she saw that it was surrounded by monks. Without thinking, she pulled the Elf King and teleported away.

"They can't get in. The secret realm won't open again until we get out."

Mu Xi felt something was wrong when she thought of the unconcealable fanaticism in the eyes of the monks at the entrance of the secret realm, and spoke in confusion.

"Achen, how do you think they knew about this secret place so quickly? And their attitude is so strange?"

The Elf King was slightly distressed when he heard this, "How about we go check it out?"

Mu Xi felt uneasy when she thought of the little phoenix still in the secret realm, so she agreed to the proposal.

"Alright, disguise yourself and let me see which guy with nothing better to do than to eat has pulled this nasty trick."

Mu Xi found out after some investigation and found that her guess was confirmed.

It turned out that half a year ago, someone spread rumors about Mu Xi, praising the secret realm to the sky and sending several rare spiritual plants to the auction house, causing all the cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation to want to enter the secret realm to try their luck.

As for who spread the rumors, Mu Xi's intuition told her that it was most likely Lu Bai.

Fortunately, for some reason, Lu Bai did not spread the news that Mu Xi was in the secret realm, otherwise who knows how many jackals, tigers and leopards would have been attracted.

The Elf King noticed Mu Xi's worry and consoled her, "Xi Xi, are you worried about the little phoenix?"

"Hmm! There are too many monks. We don't know what kind of trouble will happen and disturb the little phoenix from hatching. Do you think I should go back and guard it?"

"Xixi, you're overthinking it. The formation set up by the Little Phoenix Ancestor is enough to easily stop the cultivators here, not to mention the other traps. It's very safe."

Come to think of it, Mu Xi left the desert with the Elf King at ease.

"I've been making up for it this year. I need to find a place to make a breakthrough. Ah Chen, do you want to go to the mainland by yourself?"

After studying the map, Mu Xi thought that the Elf King had been trapped for a long time and probably didn't want to stay in one place for a long time, so she made a suggestion with a little concern.

Upon hearing this, the Elf King looked very calm, "No need, I'll be wherever Xixi is, and I can even protect Xixi."

He secretly cried and retorted that he would never separate from his young wife. If someone else got there first, he would have no place to cry.

"That's fine, as long as you don't feel bored. Thank you for your help, Achen."

Mu Xi quickly decided on the place for retreat, and took the Elf King for more than half a month to reach the destination.

"I didn't expect there was such a blessed place in such a harsh place! Xixi is really amazing, with a keen eye for finding gems, she was able to find this."

The Elf King thought that there was a beautiful and spiritual valley hidden in this desolate land, and he couldn't help but praise his little wife.

Mu Xi's mouth twitched slightly when she heard this. This was not something she found, but something she found in her memory.

"I'm going to retreat first to break through. Ah Chen, you can take care of the arrangements yourself."

"Xixi, go quickly. I will protect Xixi and will never let any creature disturb Xixi."

The Elf King added a few more layers of protection to the formation set up by Mu Xi with reluctance in his eyes.
