Yan Xiaoxi took a closer look and saw that they were bright yellow in color. They were all similar in color. No, they were exactly the same.

Therefore, she nodded and asked in surprise, "Why do you also have this kind of note?"

This rhetorical question was enough to confirm Nangong Lin's conjecture.

The note in Bei Baixi's hand was Immortal Spirit Island's prophecy, that's right.

The Immortal Spirit Island was a mysterious and powerful island above the four nations. The priests on the island knew about divination and divination, and the four nations would participate in the addition of their Sacrificial Ceremony in the beginning of spring every year.

All this time, everything was calm and peaceful.

And this year, one month later, East Mirror Kingdom suddenly declared war on them. The reason behind this, was absolutely related to the prophecy.

"It says' three out of three '. What does' one big 'mean?" Yan Xiaoxi held the yellow note that belonged to Nangong Lin and looked at him in confusion.

On the surface, the meaning behind his words was very clear. He meant that the peaceful coexistence of the four kingdoms would be broken, and the three kingdoms would be unified by one of the kingdoms as they dispersed.

Although the predictions of the four countries were different each time and they didn't know what the other party knew, Nangong Lin could guess that Dong Youjie got the same news as he did. That was why the battle happened half a year ago.

"Woman, you can't tell anyone about the note." Nangong Lin's expression was extremely serious, thoroughly letting Yan Xiaoxi know the importance of this matter.

She solemnly nodded her head. A flash of inspiration passed through her mind as she smiled sinisterly and said, "Ten roasted chickens."

"Deal." The two of them exchanged blows and reached a deal.

Yan Xiaoxi smiled excitedly. Her mind was already replaying the scene of her roaming around the roasted chicken. She could not help but feel elated.

She suddenly felt that following Nangong Lin was pretty good, without worrying about the lack of meat to eat. Plus, he was very handsome. When he was hungry, he could also fill his eyes and eliminate the hunger.

Now, Nangong Lin was no longer surprised to see Yan Xiaoxi smiling like a blooming flower. He guessed that this woman must have wanted to eat something, so she became so excited.

"Pack your luggage and we'll leave." Nangong Lin put away the note and pointed in the direction of the wardrobe.

"Why?" Yan Xiaoxi looked at Nangong Lin in confusion.

"Don't you want to find the treasure?"

"Yeah." Yan Xiaoxi clapped her hands excitedly and quickly went to pack her things.

Not long later, the two of them appeared at the door of Bei Baixi's room with their luggage.

"Brother Bei." Yan Xiaoxi knocked on the door again.

"Come in." Bei Baixi recognized Yan Xiaoxi's voice.

Nangong Lin pushed open the door and walked in alongside Yan Xiaoxi.

At this moment, Bei Baixi was elegantly sitting in front of the table as he leisurely sipped his tea.

"What are you guys doing?" Bei Baixi saw the package on Yan Xiaoxi's shoulder at a glance.

"I have been thanking the crown prince for taking care of this king's consort. This woman is too mischievous, running out of the manor without a word. Now, this prince has found her and brought her back." Nangong Lin clasped his hands and said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone.

Yan Xiaoxi glanced at Nangong Lin in surprise as she thought to herself, Isn't he going to look for the treasure?

She didn't want to return to that caged prince's mansion!

"Your Highness is too polite." Bei Baixi stood up and smiled at Yan Xiaoxi.

"Since the Beiyue Kingdom Prince has arrived at my Nanshui Kingdom, this king should be welcoming him as a host. But, in a few days, I will be preparing to bring Princess Wangfei to visit my father-in-law. If the crown prince is still at the Nanshui Kingdom then, there's no harm in coming to the Duke's Mansion for a few days." The meaning behind these words was obvious.

The corner of his mouth lifted slightly as he replied: "Prince is too polite. This prince only passed through the Nanshui Kingdom along the way, if I didn't meet Xi, I would have left long ago. I appreciate your kindness."

"So that's how it is. I wish the crown prince a pleasant journey." Since Bei Baixi had heard about the treasure through his prophecy, Nangong Lin was naturally wary of him.

Although he was only looking for the Hundred Spirit Pill s, the treasures definitely contained countless gold, silver, and precious stones, peerless divine weapons and blades. If these things were to be found by someone else, then it would be extremely disadvantageous for his Nanshui Kingdom.

That afternoon, the three of them left the Yun Lai Inn and went their separate ways.

Nangong Lin and Yan Xiaoxi followed the map and arrived at a hidden mountain area without any obstructions. In front of them was a dense forest. The trees were tall and thick and the sunlight could vaguely penetrate through the gaps between the trees.

After passing through the forest, what appeared in front of them was a vast expanse of fields. The grass was lush, and the white fog was boundless.

Holding Yan Xiaoxi's hand, Nangong Lin was the first to walk out.

"Wait." Yan Xiaoxi reached out her hand to stop Nangong Lin.

Nangong Lin looked at Yan Xiaoxi in surprise. At this moment, she took out a bottle from the small bag on her waist and poured out a black pill.

"This pill can temporarily protect you from poison." Nangong Lin understood immediately.

If one looked carefully, one would see a mysterious black fog within the white fog. This hidden mountain was definitely not that simple. If one was not careful, one would die a violent death.

Next, Yan Xiaoxi revealed her true nature and extended three fingers in front of Nangong Lin.

The intelligent Nangong Lin immediately understood what Yan Xiaoxi meant. The only thing that could make this woman talk was food. "Alright, thirty roasted chickens."

"Linlin's so smart." Lili couldn't help but cheer.

Linlin?

Nangong Lin frowned. There were only two people here, so Linlin could only call him that. This was the first time someone called him that, but Nangong Lin suddenly realized that he didn't hate being called that by Yan Xiaoxi at all.

"Ah!" Yan Xiaoxi squeezed the pill in her hand, gesturing Nangong Lin to open his mouth.

Nangong Lin cooperated decisively and swallowed the pill that Yan Xiaoxi passed to him. The next moment, he took out a pill from the medicine bottle and gave it to himself.

"This pill is very precious. When I went down the mountain, Master gave it to me, but he didn't give me a few." Yan Xiaoxi stuffed the bottle into her pocket, pained.

Nangong Lin smiled without saying a word. This woman was too cute.

As the two walked into the field, they saw the bones of many dead people. It must be because they had no intention of intruding into the field and died from poisoning.

"Luckily, we ate some pills." Yan Xiaoxi had never seen a corpse like this before, so she still felt some lingering fear when she recalled it.

Nangong Lin held Yan Xiaoxi's small hand tightly. He looked at her and said affectionately, "It's fine, I have this king."

Yan Xiaoxi didn't know why, but after hearing this and feeling the warmth from Nangong Lin, she seemed to have been comforted. Suddenly, she was no longer afraid.

"Linlin, you have to protect me. Otherwise, if there's any poisonous gas in front of you, you'll die." Yan Xiaoxi twisted her neck, making an image of death for Nangong Lin.

Nangong Lin couldn't hold back his laughter and said solemnly, "This King will protect you."
