245: Chapter 245 Wilderness Training_1 245: Chapter 245 Wilderness Training_1 “Hehe~ guess what I brought back~”
As soon as Feng Yuan returned to the dormitory, he boasted to Qi Chen, who was lying on the bed.
Glancing at Feng Yuan, Qi Chen calmly said,
“Didn’t you say you were going to be back late?”
“I didn’t expect to make it back just before they locked the dormitory~ Here, this is for you, your gift.”
Ah Mu caught the object Feng Yuan tossed over with a vine.
Qi Chen sat up and, looking at the cloth bag Ah Mu handed him, said with a hint of surprise,
“What’s inside?
If it’s food, eat it yourself.
I’ve already rinsed.”
“It’s not food, the food is over here.”
While putting the paper-wrapped package on the table, Feng Yuan noticed Xiao Ji had somehow fallen asleep on his head, carefully picked Xiao Ji up, and as if sensing Feng Yuan’s movement, Xiao Ji blinked and yawned, looking at Feng Yuan.
Feng Yuan patted the head of Dreaming Dragon Baby, who was covertly floating towards the paper package with the intention of sneaking a bite, and said calmly,
“I remember you stuffed yourself at the inn.
Can you still eat now?”
Giving Feng Yuan a disdainful glance, Dreaming Dragon Baby turned its head away and floated toward its own bed, but kept looking back at the paper-wrapped package, unable to hide its true desire.
Meanwhile, Qi Chen had already opened the cloth bag.
Seeing what was inside, Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan and asked,
“Did you collect all these after school this afternoon?”
“What else?
But you need to hurry up.
I’m not sure I can get Gitalien to take me to collect them again if they’re stored for too long.”
Qi Chen carefully put away the cloth bag and, looking at Feng Yuan with gratitude, said,
“Thank you.”
Waving his hand, Feng Yuan yawned and said while sitting on the bed,
“Just make sure to quickly gather the rest of the Spiritual Medicine and Materials, going back to the past has left me a bit out of sorts.”
“Back to the past?”
“Yeah, didn’t Lorraine Tower and the rest come over?
So I took the chance to hop back for a stroll and snack along the way.
I bet they’re sick of the modern era by now~”
“Look, the food in that paper package on the table is from the past.”
With a somewhat speechless look, Qi Chen said,
“Your foraging territory is getting wider and wider, crossing time just to eat…”
“What else?
Radically alter the timeline?
Lorraine Tower would whack me for that.”
“Are you sure you didn’t change anything this time in the past?”
Facing Qi Chen’s skeptical gaze, Feng Yuan recalled and said,
“Nope, just had a good meal.
Oh, and at that time, the Seventh Prince even made two Spirit Beast feasts for Lorraine Tower and the others…”
Seeing Qi Chen staring at him with an ‘I knew it’ expression, Feng Yuan said with a touch of guilt,
“What are you staring at me for…”
“What’s the deal with the Seventh Prince?
You said you didn’t alter history.”
“It should be fine, I guess?
We just took him around to places like the seaside and the desert.
Even though we left in the evening, we ended up spending another day there, so now I’m a bit jet-lagged.”
“You took the Seventh Prince around the seaside and the desert…”
Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan, speechless, not knowing what to say.
After thinking for a moment, Feng Yuan said with a smile,
“Relax~ With how the Seventh Prince is, even if we took him for a spin, it wouldn’t influence him one bit~”
“Who exactly is this Seventh Prince you’re talking about?”
“The last King of the Great Li Dynasty, Seventh Prince Mo Li, of course~”
“I can’t believe it’s him!”
Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan in surprise.
After fiddling with Xiao Ji’s silly fur, Feng Yuan said matter-of-factly,
“Of course, it’s him.
I wouldn’t dare get close to the other princes; afraid of affecting history.
But I’m not worried about Mo Li; whatever he does, his goals won’t change.”
Qi Chen sighed and said to Feng Yuan,
“You didn’t help him with anything, did you?”
“Not at all.
He doesn’t need my help for anything; he just treated us to two meals, and we took him to see the world beyond Great Li, that’s all.”
“The world beyond Great Li…
Right, he never left Great Li in his life…”
“Outdoor survival training?”
The next day, receiving a notice from Teacher Yan, Feng Yuan was puzzled.
Glancing at him, Qi Chen said with a hint of resignation,
“Teacher Yan just mentioned this yesterday, you haven’t forgotten, have you?”
“No, I just thought I didn’t need to participate.”
“You’re the team captain; how can we manage without you!”
“I specifically turned down their invitation to join your team; don’t let us down.”
Pei Yu gave Feng Yuan a wary look and shook his head.
Feng Yuan chuckled and said
“How could I be that kind of person?”
Seeing Pei Yu nod, Feng Yuan complained,
“Follow me, and who knows, maybe you’ll encounter a miracle, like running into a White Wolf Deity and earning its favor, bestowing a blessing upon you or something.”
Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan speechlessly and said,
“Can’t you refrain from messing with Divine Beasts?
Although it’s not exactly against the rules, it still feels like cheating to me.”
“Then how about other contestants accidentally encountering an irate Poison Mush, getting poisoned, and losing their ability to continue the competition?”
“That’s crossing the line!
What did the others do to you for you to poison them!”
Having heard Feng Yuan’s explanation about himself and the Big Mushroom before, Qi Chen knew very well that if Feng Yuan really wanted to do it, he surely could.
With a twist of his mouth, Feng Yuan said somewhat disgruntled,
“This is not okay, that’s not allowed; you’re hard to please.”
“Can’t you just compete normally…
Why do you have to resort to such underhanded tactics?”
Seeing Qi Chen seemed somewhat dissatisfied, Feng Yuan stopped joking and straightened up to say,
“Alright, I’ll stop teasing you.
Are all your things ready?”
Qi Chen looked helplessly at Feng Yuan who stood with empty hands, holding nothing, and said,
“We all have our stuff ready, except for you…”
“Just a moment~”
Seeing Feng Yuan swiftly scurry away, Qi Chen shook his head and walked over to Teacher Yan, saying,
“Teacher Yan, Feng Yuan went back to get his stuff, we’ll need a moment.”
“Check if you’ve left anything behind!
If you forgot something, hurry back and get it!”
Hearing Teacher Yan’s shout, those students carrying bags quickly set down their packs to check carefully.
Pei Yu looked at Qi Chen with some confusion and said,
“Aren’t you going to check?”
“I’ve already checked before leaving.
Besides, who would let you go back for your things during the competition?”
Looking at the students who were occasionally running back to their dorms, Qi Chen said calmly, Zhong Liuyan laughed and said,
“What about Feng Yuan?”
“Him?
I don’t think he will bring anything, and I have no clue what he’s up to by going back.”
“Are you so sure?”
“You’ll know in a moment.”
A while later, when they saw Feng Yuan approaching in a Ritual Robe of Life, Zhong Liuyan said, somewhat astonished,
“You were actually right.”
Recognizing the Ritual Robe of Life on Feng Yuan, Qi Chen covered his face helplessly and said,
“What kind of trick is he up to now?”
Walking up to the group, Feng Yuan waved and greeted everyone.
Pei Yu, looking puzzled at Feng Yuan’s robe, asked,
“What are you planning this time?”
“Don’t you think the team lacks a healer~”
Seeing Feng Yuan wave the scepter in his hand, Qi Chen said calmly,
“I’m curious to see if your so-called healer will be leading the charge.”
Casting a glance at Qi Chen, Feng Yuan waved his scepter, and a healing ripple spread from the center of the scepter.
Just as Qi Chen was about to say something, Teacher Yan shouted for the assembly.
Everyone quickly gathered and lined up to board the school-chartered bus.
Feng Yuan looked curiously out the window and said,
“Where are we going?”
“Mount Mo.
Isn’t that the designated competition venue?”
“The competition venue is there?”
Seeing Feng Yuan’s surprise, Qi Chen looked at him speechlessly and said,
“You didn’t read your file, did you?”
“Nope, I didn’t feel the need to and was too lazy to look at it.”
“You…”
Qi Chen explained briefly to Feng Yuan about the contents recorded in the file.
After listening, Feng Yuan looked at Qi Chen triumphantly and said,
“See, now I understand, don’t I~”
Qi Chen just shook his head with a wry smile as the bus slowly drove out of the city amidst the chatter of the passengers.
