Chapter 143 There is an active volcano
"Chen'er, please don't let anyone else know about this matter from now on, lest it bring you trouble! After all, the nature of people in this world is really hard to guess."
Ziwei raised her beautiful eyes and gazed into his. She parted her red lips and smiled sweetly, saying, "You are not like others. I have no doubt that you will not harm me."
Such unconditional trust undoubtedly demonstrated his inestimable position in her heart. Fu Kang'an's heart surged with emotion, and he could not help but pull her tightly into his arms, leaning over and gently kissing her cherry lips.
Ziwei was caught off guard, her eyes widening instantly as she stared in disbelief at the audacious man before her. This damned fellow was getting even bolder. Wasn't he worried at all that the two of them might accidentally fall?
Fortunately, he only kissed her briefly before letting her go. Ziwei rolled her eyes at him coquettishly, then immediately regained control of the flying sword and continued to sprint forward.
At this moment, the Sakura Kingdom was in the Edo Period, and all sectors were experiencing impressive development. Although it still lagged behind the prosperous and vast Qing Empire, Ziwei had still made a great return on her trip, collecting many rare treasures.
In this way, after a whole day of long flight, they finally visited all the target locations.
Ziwei's personal space has been filled with all kinds of rare treasures. It can be said that she has returned with a full load and a very rich harvest.
Passing by the famous Apple Mountain, Ziwei stopped lightly and stood on the top of the mountain. She looked down at the huge and deep crater below, and a complex emotion surged in her heart.
"Fukang'an, look, there is an active volcano over there! If I trigger it to erupt, will you think I am too cruel and ruthless?" Ziwei tilted her head slightly, looked at Fukang'an beside her, and asked softly.
Fu Kang'an's face was solemn. He pointed to the distant and unreachable territory of the Qing Dynasty. His voice was low and serious: "Chen'er, the reason we came here is because those barbarians frequently harassed our people at the border. What did those innocent people do wrong? It is clear that they were the first to commit unjust acts. I am not a saint, and it is difficult for me to treat the people of the invaded country and the people of our Qing Dynasty equally. However, how can you do such a cruel thing yourself?"
After saying this, he stared intently at the bottom of the volcano with his hawk-like eyes, as if he wanted to see through everything in the hot magma.
Fukangan unleashed some unknown force, and within a split second, the seemingly calm volcano began to stir subtly. At first, it was just a slight tremor, but as time went on, the tremors grew more intense, until the entire mountain began to shake.
Seeing this, Ziwei hurriedly drove her flawless sword and flew away quickly. As they went further and further away, the sound of the mountain shaking behind them became more and more deafening, as if the earth was about to be torn apart.
"Do you want to continue watching?" Ziwei looked back at the volcano that was about to erupt, a sneer flashed across her lips. Even if the Sakura Country has not done such a heartless thing yet, what's wrong with everything that happened in that world taking revenge on you?
Fukangan shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Let's go back quickly. We haven't returned to the camp for a whole day, and I don't know how the soldiers' training is progressing." Chen'er, the tragedy of the village affected by the volcanic flow is not something you should witness.
When Ziwei followed Fukang'an back to the military camp, the night had already fallen like a thick black curtain. The surroundings were as dark as ink, and only the torches in the military camp and the faint candlelight from the tents dotted the sky.
Fukang'an led Ziwei to the largest tent in the military camp and whispered, "Chen'er, you can rest in my tent tonight. The conditions here are rather simple and naturally cannot be compared with the prosperous capital, but at least you can have a place to stay." After that, he walked into the tent and carefully lit the candle inside. The dim candlelight illuminated the entire tent.
Ziwei shrugged, unconcerned about the harsh environment. She smiled and replied, "It's okay. I wasn't planning on sleeping anyway. For me, once I start practicing, time flies."
As she spoke, she raised her head and gazed at Fu Kang'an seriously and intently, continuing earnestly, "Although you are busy with affairs, you must never forget your cultivation. Only with sufficient strength can we fearlessly face all challenges in the world."
As soon as she finished speaking, she flipped her palm lightly, and a small and exquisite jade bottle appeared in her palm.
Ziwei handed the jade bottle to Fukang'an and explained, "This bottle of spiritual liquid is for you. Just drink a little every day and then practice, and you will get twice the result with half the effort."
Fu Kang'an quickly reached out to take the jade bottle and examined it carefully. He quickly put the bottle back into Ziwei's hand and said, "Chen'er, the spiritual energy contained in this is extremely rich. It's such a precious thing, it's best for you to keep it for yourself. It will be the same no matter what kind of spiritual energy I absorb."
Ziwei insisted that Fukang'an accept it. She said firmly, "Just take it! Don't worry, I still have a lot of it in stock. Fukang'an, I hope you can successfully build your foundation soon. You know, this world is extremely vast, and there are still many unknowns waiting for us to explore."
Fu Kang'an took it carefully, his movements so gentle that it felt like he was holding the most precious treasure in the world. Then, he stretched out his strong arms and held her tightly in his arms. He lowered his head slightly, resting his chin gently on her fragile shoulder, as if protecting a delicate flower.
His voice was low and gentle, like a warm spring breeze, gently caressing her heartstrings: "Chen'er, every word you say is deeply engraved in my heart. Please believe me, I will redouble my efforts and complete the foundation building as soon as possible. When that time comes, I will take you to travel all over the mountains and rivers of this world, letting you appreciate all the beautiful scenery."
Ziwei, held in his arms, could clearly feel the fierce beating of his fiery heart. The intense rhythm transmitted through their bodies made her own heartbeat accelerate. She felt as if her cheeks were roasted by fire, burning hot. This sweet taste of love was like a glass of mellow wine, intoxicating and unable to extricate herself.
