Chapter 461: Chapter 327: A New Stage, The Wind Rises
On the other side, Qi Xuefei and Li Wenxi were both in Xu Xin’s treehouse.
Qi Xuefei had just arrived because this was the treehouse closest to the giant peak, where you could see the peak at a glance. Both of them were observing the situation and changes from here.
Outside was a field of white snow, making it impossible to explore anywhere. There were guards near their treehouse, so no need for them to stay. They could rush back if anything happened.
"I didn’t expect that you and Xu Xin are... Your progress is truly quick." Qi Xuefei sighed. She herself was already twenty-six or twenty-seven, yet she was lagging behind a little girl of twenty, feeling a bit melancholic.
"Half of the responsibility is yours, Sister Xuefei!" Li Wenxi had been lying by the window, staring blankly at the stone pillar giant peak, lost in thoughts. Upon hearing Qi Xuefei’s words, she immediately turned and said, "It’s you who incited me!"
Qi Xuefei sat on the sofa, stroking Keke, who had no guard against her anymore, and laughed, "It wasn’t just you who wanted it? I just gave a little push."
"What do you mean a little? You gave me enormous determination." Li Wenxi took out a small bottle of pills, shaking it before her eyes, blushing at some thought, "If it wasn’t for this bottle of medicine, I definitely wouldn’t have done such a thing!"
"Is this the reason you came to someone’s treehouse for nothing?" Qi Xuefei helplessly glanced at her, "I did not expect you to be so swift and bold, giving yourself away so quickly."
"Oh, cut it out, what do you mean by giving away!" Li Wenxi blushed and pouted, "I just thought... Oh! I just wanted to, so what!"
Saying this, both women laughed.
"Have you taken the medicine?" Qi Xuefei pointed to the small medicine bottle in her hand.
"Not yet..." Li Wenxi pulled out a pill, examining it closely with some hesitation, "I chose the safest day, it should be fine, right? Don’t they say this kind of medicine has big side effects..."
"Don’t worry, the medicine I make is only good for your body." Qi Xuefei was very confident in this regard, calmly saying, "Not only can it prevent pregnancy, but it can also improve physical condition."
"... Okay, I trust you, Sister Xuefei!" Li Wenxi bit the bullet and swallowed the pill in her hand, then breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, she gave Xue Feng a fierce look: "Stupid man, disappearing the next day, leaving me to think about these things alone. Hmph!"
"Didn’t he consider it?"
"Last night he did ask me once." Li Wenxi glanced at Xue Feng again, then walked back to the sofa and sat next to Qi Xuefei, stroking Keke’s little head, "I told him it’s a safe period now, and showed him the medicine from Sister Xuefei. Seeing it, he was relieved. Hmph, with his anxious appearance, even without the medicine, I think he wouldn’t hold back."
"Whine...?" Keke lay on its back, exposing its belly and tilting its little head towards the two women, not knowing what they were discussing.
Qi Xuefei suddenly leaned over, curiously whispering, "Is that kind of thing very pleasurable?"
"At first, it hurt a lot, but later... Oh, Sister Xuefei, why are you asking this!" Li Wenxi blushed and lightly pushed Qi Xuefei away.
Qi Xuefei seemed a bit melancholic: "It’s not like I haven’t..."
Just then, there was a sudden explosion from afar.
"What happened?!" Li Wenxi immediately stood up from the sofa and ran to the window. The direction the sound came from was exactly the direction of the stone pillar giant peak.
The snow peak was less than a kilometer from the treehouse, and Xu Xin’s location was also only more than three hundred meters up on the snow peak. The sound of the explosion bolts could still be heard somewhat.
"Did someone use explosive bolts?!" Li Wenxi exclaimed, "Who used them? Using explosive bolts on a snowy mountain won’t cause an avalanche, will it?!"
"There shouldn’t be a problem." Qi Xuefei also walked to Li Wenxi’s side, looking towards the stone pillar giant peak, "This peak doesn’t have many places to accumulate snow; not much snow should fall."
"Oh... That’s good, that’s good." Li Wenxi observed for a while, then finally breathed a sigh of relief. Indeed, the mountain peak in the distance hadn’t changed much.
Hopefully, nothing goes wrong...
...
Elsewhere, Ji Chaoyang had also climbed to a position similar to Xu Xin’s, sitting in a cave, waiting for the small avalanche to end.
Since he arrived at the area with caves, he actually always had the idea to hide in a cave and create an avalanche to let the snow above fall down. This way, climbing afterward would be easier.
But he was worried it might affect Xu Xin, who was climbing with him, so he never took action.
Unexpectedly, the snow came down by itself.
He didn’t know if the avalanche was Xu Xin’s doing because both he and Xu Xin seemed to have entered a special space that didn’t affect each other, although they shared the snow peak, they couldn’t sense each other.
Therefore, even though he was on this mountain, he didn’t hear the explosion of explosive bolts, only felt the mountain tremble, and then the avalanche came.
He thought it was just a challenge on the journey of climbing the snowy mountain.
Once the avalanche finished, he needed to continue climbing upward.
"It’s just a pity I didn’t keep the guy I met earlier."
...
On the other side, after the avalanche ended, Xu Xin ate several fruits to replenish his condition and started climbing upward faster.
