Share weal and woe together

  She started suppressing her voice intentionally last night, but later on, she completely forgot about it in the heat of the moment. She was afraid that everyone had already heard her.

  After breakfast, one person was left here to wait, and the crowd all carried heavy loads on their backs and started walking. Except for Liu Lan and Zhou Lao, who only carried more than 10 kilograms of things, everyone else carried 60-70 kilograms of things.

  But for them, it should be a usual training, just by looking at their swift footsteps. Of course, there are exceptions, that is Huang Tianxuan, he alone with empty hands, leisurely followed everyone to move forward.

  Although Liu Lan knew that he had a method that could move things at will, and also knew that his strength was actually unfathomable, she did not let Huang Tianxuan carry things for her like on the bed. Because she was still afraid that others would have some opinions about him, after all, she was their teammate, but now she was in a relationship with this man.

  "Wait a minute." Huang Tianxuan walked for a while before calling out to Liu Lan.

  "What's wrong?"

  "I think what you're carrying isn't too heavy, I should be able to help you carry it away. Let me help you with it."

  "Never mind," she shook her head, "all of my teammates have their backs against me, how can I just stand by with nothing to do?"

  "Fool, when there's a condition, how can I not use it? Who made me unable to bear seeing you carry such heavy things?"

  Huang Tianxuan finished speaking, disregarding her objections and ignoring the fact that her face had already turned bright red. He snatched the bundle from her back and stored it in his spatial storage. In reality, with his abilities, it wouldn't be difficult for him to store all of their belongings at once.

  But he didn't do that, because he knew those people wouldn't completely hand everything over to him either. Although they were already cooperating with each other, it hadn't reached the point where they could entrust their lives to one another.

  If he harbors any evil intentions and runs away with all their belongings once they enter the deep mountains, then everyone in this group will surely die in the mountains.

  "Alright, I'll cast a spell on them to lighten their load, that should help them walk faster and more easily."

  Huang Tianxuan said, waving his hand to add a wind-based acceleration spell to each of them, making everyone feel that the weight on their bodies had decreased significantly, and they walked much faster.

  "That's about right."

  Liu Lan smiled, and her heart was also sweet and warm. She let Huang Tianxuan lead her by the hand in front of everyone. Because from his hand came a continuous flow of warmth that made her feel not one bit cold, as if she were at home in the living room.

  As they went deeper into the mountains, the road became increasingly non-existent. Many places were just dense forests or barren mountain ridges, and there were deep and shallow valleys everywhere. At this time, the mountains had already turned white with snow, and they had lost their direction, relying only on Old Zhou's compass to adjust their direction along the way.

  Just a short while ago, Huang Tianxuan saw that Old Man Zhou was also getting a bit exhausted, so after obtaining his consent, he let Huang Tianxuan take over the burden on him. However, Huang Tianxuan didn't ask anyone else, and no one else spoke up either; everyone maintained a tacit understanding.

  As they walked, the sky gradually darkened and big snowflakes began to fall, layer upon layer of white color covering all the mountains. They sometimes passed through some forests, sometimes crossed over small streams, sometimes climbed over mountain ridges, and when there was no road, they would use ropes to descend along the cliffs.

  "I didn't expect today's weather to change so much, fortunately your magic has alleviated their burden, otherwise it would be dark before we could get here."

  They arrived at a windless valley just before dark, and they would rest here for the night. This was also where they had rested on their previous two trips, as it took two days to hike into the mountains, and they always reached this spot just as the sun was setting.

  Seeing that everyone was exhausted, Old Zhou hastily expressed his gratitude to Huang Tianxuan, because in such heavy snow weather, traveling in the deep mountains was extremely dangerous. If they couldn't find a place to rest overnight, some unknown dangers might occur.

  One side of the mountain wall naturally hollowed out a piece of land the size of a football field, and outside there was also a huge rock blocking the outside, inside is a good place to avoid the wind. This place was also where they found when they came to explore for the first time, marked it down, and later happened to be used as a resting place.

  Everyone here took a break, put down the heavy burden on their bodies, and suddenly let out a long, coarse breath. In comparison, Liu Lan had Huang Tianxuan with her all the way, and in some places, she was even half-pulled and half-carried along, hardly suffering any hardship at all.

  She now also naturally treats Huang Tianxuan, after all, she has been held by him and walked so many roads in front of everyone, and she is no longer afraid of the gaze of others.

  Fortunately, Huang Tianxuan used the snow outside to boil a large pot of hot water, letting everyone drink warmly; then each person soaked their feet in hot water, driving away the cold on their bodies, and everyone was even more grateful to him.

  After dinner, everyone spread out the blankets and sleeping bags to rest. However, in order to warm up more, they all put their sleeping bags together, which was a bit crowded. Huang Tianxuan, on the other hand, set up his tent not far from them and slipped inside with Liu Lan under their envious gaze.

  But no matter how close they were, since Huang Tianxuan had set up a soundproof magic array, even if he and Liu Lan made a racket for half the night, no one heard their voices.

  This made those people a bit strange, Liu Lan was such a beautiful woman, and she slept with him without making any noise at all? This is too abnormal.

  Of course, Huang Tianxuan did not know this. If he had known, he would have probably deliberately quarreled with them for a whole night, making it impossible for them to sleep. But as long as he was happy and joyful, he didn't care what others said.

  It wasn't until the third evening that they finally arrived at the ancient site, and everyone let out a sigh of relief. Under Lao Zhou's command, the group quickly set up camp, choosing a secluded yet relatively safe place to put down all their belongings.

  "Ah, finally arrived."

  "Let's get a good night's sleep tonight, rest well and recharge our spirits. We'll go in again tomorrow to investigate further." Old Zhou said, casting a special glance at Huang Tianxuan and Liu Lan.

  "Alright, I've been rushing for two days and it's really unbearable."

  "Alright, go to sleep."
