When Ye Yanxing and his companions left, there were still snowflakes falling in the imperial city, but the snow was not heavy and did not affect their journey.

Ye Xingche knew that they all had things to do, so he didn't stay long. He just reminded them to be careful on the road.

Madam Hou held Fu Qianrun and Xiaopang's hands, her eyes full of reluctance, but she also reminded them to keep warm, get enough rest, and have a safe journey.

Fu Qianrun comforted her, "Don't worry, mother. We will take good care of ourselves. The prince will arrange it."

"Oh, okay." The mother was naturally happy that her son didn't have to take care of others, but was the one being taken care of. "Manman, if you miss grandma, come back to the imperial city, okay?"

"Okay." Xiaopang answered perfunctorily, but his eyes were looking into the distance, obviously he also wanted to go home.

"Everyone stop, we'll send you here." Ye Yanxing said finally.

Why make it such a grand ceremony? It’s not like he won’t be coming back, especially since Ye Xingche came out in person to see him off.

Do you think the imperial city is safe enough now?

Or is it that official duties are not busy enough?

After Ye Yanxing finished speaking, he led his group out of the city.

Walk to the fork in the road.

"See you later, little uncle."

"See you."

The two teams went their separate ways, one on the left and one on the right.

It has been snowing in Qingzhou these days, so Ye Yanxing and his companions were not walking very fast.

We walked and stopped almost all the way. We walked when the weather was good and stopped to rest when the weather was bad, just like we were out for fun.

There was no feeling of being in a hurry at all.

The journey usually takes seven to ten days, but this time they walked for ten days and still hadn’t left Qingzhou.

That day, Ye Yanxing and the king went out for a walk.

"Awoo! Awoo! Awoo!" the king roared in the mountains as usual.

However, this time, instead of scaring away other animals, it attracted responses from its own kind.

"Ouch!"

It looks like it is a tiger stationed in the native forest.

"Ouch!" The king refused to give in.

"Ouch!" The other party also responded with the same sentence.

The two tigers kept shouting at each other from a distance, completely ignoring the lives of other small animals.

Ye Yanxing was annoyed by what he heard and just walked away, trying to pretend that he didn't see it.

Otherwise he was afraid that he would not be able to resist and slap the king on the head.

But he didn't want to suppress the king's nature. After all, he was also a tiger, the king of the forest.

There was nothing interesting to see here, so Ye Yanxing hunted a few prey and went back.

The king followed soon after, and the man and the tiger left the forest one after the other.

Back in the city, the usually bustling streets were now deserted.

The weather was too cold, and the citizens were reluctant to go out and stayed at home to keep warm.

The king walked on the street with a swagger. People who saw him from afar took a detour in advance and did not dare to get too close to them.

This made the whole street seem even more deserted.

The shop owners around here all hope that these two guys will leave soon, otherwise other people will not dare to come and buy things.

When I returned to the small courtyard I rented, I saw Fuling wandering around in a hurry as soon as I entered the door.

"What happened?" Ye Yanxing asked her.

"Your Highness, you're back!" Fuling felt like she saw a savior when she heard his voice. "The prince has a fever and it won't go down. Please go and have a look!"

"Fever?" Ye Yanxing was stunned. This was the first time Xiaopang was sick since he was born.

"Yes, Master, we have tried many methods but failed to reduce the prince's high fever. Now the prince has fallen into a coma."

Fuling walked behind Ye Yanxing, explaining the situation while quickening her pace to keep up with him.

"Ouch!" The king ran over quickly.

Finally I arrived at Xiaopang's room, only to see Fu Qianrun with an anxious look on his face.

How could he not be anxious? Xiaopang had a fever, and no matter what he did, it was useless. Even Xiaopang's supernatural powers were not absorbed.

"Your Highness! Please come and see Manman. He is sick and I can't cure him no matter what I do!" Fu Qianrun's voice was trembling. When he saw Ye Yanxing, he seemed to have found his backbone.

"Well, I'm back, don't be afraid, ma'am." He first comforted Fu Qianrun, then walked over to check on Xiaopang's condition.

Xiaopang was lying on the bed with his eyes closed and his face flushed.

The small body lay sickly on the large bed, looking extremely pitiful.

Ye Yanxing reached out and touched his forehead. It was very hot, not the temperature of an ordinary fever.

Just by looking at it this way, he began to wonder if Xiaopang had been burned silly.

When he opened his shirt, Xiaopang's whole body was flushed.

It may not be described as a flush, but rather red. The whole body is red from the heat, like a boiled shrimp.

If Xiaopang hadn't still been breathing, Ye Yanxing would have thought he was cooked.

"My Lord, how is it?"

Seeing Ye Yanxing slowly pulling Xiaopang's clothes on, Fu Qianrun couldn't help but ask.

He was so anxious that Ye Yanxing could still be so leisurely.

His leisurely attitude made Fu Qianrun feel relieved. Ye Yanxing would not joke about Xiaopang's life. Since he was not in a hurry, it meant that the problem was not serious.

But Fu Qianrun looked at Xiaopang and it really didn't look like he was okay!

After sending Fuling away, Ye Yanxing began to explain, "Don't worry, Madam, the little fatty is fine. He is awakening his supernatural powers."

"Awakening superpowers?" Fu Qianrun couldn't figure it out. He didn't feel anything when he first awakened, so he asked this question.

"Madam, your case is special." Ye Yanxing explained to him, "Just like when Xiaopang awakened his wood-related abilities, you didn't have to go through any pain to activate the abilities."

"But in fact, in our place, every person who awakens superpowers has to go through a life-and-death struggle before they succeed."

"Many people lost their lives because they couldn't endure the pain during the awakening process."

"But in the environment of the end times, anyone who has the opportunity to awaken superpowers will take this life-or-death opportunity."

"Because that way you have a greater chance of survival."

Fu Qianrun held Ye Yanxing's hand, his eyes full of heartache, "Did the prince awaken in the same way?"

"Yes, including me." Ye Yanxing took him into his arms and comforted him, "It's all over. I'm fine now."

"That's full..."

"He'll be fine as long as I'm here." Ye Yanxing held Fu Qianrun's cheek and kissed him on the lips, "You have to believe in your man, okay?"

"Yeah." Hearing the latter sentence, Fu Qianrun felt a little embarrassed, and he lowered his head and buried it in Ye Yanxing's neck.

"Did Xiaopang start to have a fever after I left?" Ye Yanxing asked, gently stroking his hair.

"Well, not long after the prince left, Manman began to feel unwell. I thought it was just a simple discomfort and that he would be fine after I gave him my supernatural power."

"After the afternoon, he started to feel unwell again, and it got worse and worse until now."

"It usually takes three to five days for superpowers to awaken. Don't worry, ma'am. I'll be watching. Xiaopang will probably awaken ice-type superpowers." Ye Yanxing comforted him.

"Okay." Fu Qianrun felt relieved and his clenched hands loosened a little.

Ye Yanxing gently stroked his palm which was deeply pinched, silently comforting him.

The two of them stayed by Xiaopang's bedside all the time, occasionally giving him water.

During the period of awakening of superpowers, no one else can help you and you can only rely on yourself to get through it.

Xiaopang is still so young and doesn’t understand the concept of awakening superpowers. He just feels uncomfortable all over. He is completely supported by Fu Qianrun’s encouragement in his ear.
