Young man, please stay

Chapter 358 White Fox
It turned out that Qin Lang did not receive any special treatment from the Wanhun Forest.

His strength was also suppressed.

And unfortunately, he just reached the Grandmaster level recently, which just happened to meet the conditions for being suppressed.

As for to what extent the situation would be suppressed, Qin Lang asked the empress, and the empress said she didn't know either.

"Not sure?"

"It's not certain, it's very random."

Su Yupan said this, facing the Ten Thousand Souls Forest in front of him, and raised his hand to slap out.

The red palm wind turned into a shadow that swept over the dry grass and rolled forward, bending the first few big trees down severely, almost breaking them at the waist.

"Um…"

The Empress was thoughtful:
"As for me, this year is fine."

Seeing this, Qin Lang also began to practice his skills with great interest. He slowly transferred his internal energy from the gel in his dantian to his hands. Then he stretched out his arms in an embrace and used all his internal energy to hit the same trees. The light golden shadow of his palm was flowing with a slight red and purple color.

Wow~
There was also dead grass rustling in the wind, but the picture Qin Lang took only caused the branches and leaves of a few trees in the distance to shake a few times, that was all.

"?"

Qin Lang looked at his hands in astonishment, then ran to a nearby tree in three or two steps, pulled out a pear-shaped knife from his waist, and chopped across the tree trunk.

Click——!
The Falling Pear Knife only sank shallowly into it.

For a normal person, a knife would only be able to pierce a little bit of the bark, and being able to cut into it would be a great achievement.

But as a martial arts master, Qin Lang was really shocked that this blow, which contained internal strength, did not directly cut the tree trunk.

It was just like when they were setting up camp and laying foundations. It was due to both the Wanhun Forest itself and the fact that Qin Lang's strength was suppressed.

Obviously, although both were suppressed, Qin Lang had bad luck this time. He was suppressed more severely than the empress, otherwise the difference between the palm strikes of the two would not be so great.

"Tsk..."

Qin Lang, feeling somewhat dejected, returned to the empress, just in time to see Gu Jin and Su Yinping also trying to chop down a large tree that was isolated on the dry grass with knives.

boom!
boom!
Gu Jin and Su Yinping were not suppressed because their strength was not at the level of Grandmaster.

Needless to say, Gu Jin was rarely seen using any weapon other than a dagger. This time, she chopped with a knife, and the blade penetrated half of the branch. Just from her slender figure, it was hard to imagine that she had such great strength. This was also the basis of her strength as the Thousand Hands of the Yulin Guard.

And Miss Su has now reached the level of a martial artist. In the martial arts world, she can be the leader of one of the Twelve Sects. Although the slash she made was not as deep as Gu Jin's, the blade also sank more than half way into the skin.

In short, the performance of the two women, plus the empress, is better than Qin Lang.

Qin Lang suddenly became the one with the worst fighting ability among everyone.

"No! I don't accept it!"

This Ten Thousand Souls Forest, it's fine if he just makes trouble, but why is his luck so bad, and he is suppressed so badly, Qin Lang picked up the knife and hit the tree several times, the result can only be described as...

Shallow and very cute.

"..."

Helpless, Qin Lang had to accept his fate. He originally wanted to find someone to hug and touch for comfort, but when he turned around, he found that the empress, Su Yinping, and Gu Jin all had a suppressed smile on their lips or in their eyes, looking at him who was as depressed as a child.

"My dear Qin."

The empress spoke, pretending to be serious:

"Don't be disappointed. If you encounter danger during this Northern Hunt, I will protect you, and so will the Princess and Qianshou."

"Uh-huh!"

Upon hearing this, a certain female hero nodded vigorously, touched the Pear Knife on her waist, and blinked her almond-shaped eyes at her boyfriend with encouragement.

Jin'er also came forward, first looking at the Yulin Guards who were busy setting up camp behind them, and then quietly took Qin Lang's arm:
"Qin Lang, we will protect you."

"..."

Good man, you did this on purpose, didn’t you?
But Qin Lang had no way to refute it. The fact was that whether he needed protection or not was another matter. In any case, he was indeed greatly weakened. However, Qin Lang certainly could not weaken in momentum.

So, looking at the girls, Qin Lang cockily puffed out his chest and head, then held up his trouser waist with both hands and inexplicably puffed up his trouser waist. The three women didn't react at first, but when they noticed the bulging bulge under his waist, they realized that this guy was shamelessly showing off his "strength" as a male like a beast.

"Pooh! Virtue!"

The girls were speechless and looked at each other with blushing faces. Then they spat at him, scolded him, and turned around and ignored him.

Just ignore it. Even though Qin Lang himself felt a little embarrassed, it didn't stop him from laughing proudly.

--------

Qin Lang was not very familiar with the procedures and rules of the Northern Hunt.

Anyway, after the camp was set up, the first group to enter the Ten Thousand Souls Forest were the Yulin Guards. These girls all changed into hunting clothes and entered the Ten Thousand Souls Forest to hunt for food, so they also entered the more sparsely populated outskirts of the Ten Thousand Souls Forest.

When enough food to last for more than a month was brought back, Qin Lang also took a look. The hares, wild boars, tits, pheasants, etc. were obviously larger than those in other places.

It is said that this difference is only on the periphery. A little deeper is the "essence" of the Forest of Ten Thousand Souls. The birds and beasts inside will more or less have some unique characteristics compared to those outside.

……

"I remember that the monks at Chanzhen Temple warned us that there would be even more bizarre birds and beasts this year, right?"

"Well, it's vague, and I don't know what the specific situation is..."

……

When it comes to the unknown dangers of this year's Northern Hunt, Qin Lang has a rough idea in mind. Looking at the profile of the empress, he silently hopes that nothing will really happen. If it is a last resort...

No one knows his body better than Qin Lang.

The three internal skills of "Mu Xin Jue", "Zhuo Xin Jue" and "Yu Xin Jue" that he now possesses are not simply put together. The fusion of some of the methods among them is quite mysterious, and basically, they are things that even his senior sisters do not understand.

For example, at the moment, although his strength was suppressed, as early as when he was in the Golden Sea Illusion, he had already mastered some unique methods of using internal strength, and he was fully confident that he could pay some non-fatal price to protect his body at the critical moment.

Of course, you can protect yourself and you can protect others.

However, Qin Lang would definitely not reveal such things to the women around him, especially during this northern hunt, so as to avoid making them worry.

……

I have to say that the freshly hunted game is still very rich.

Even though the conditions were limited, he was the emperor after all, so he tried to cook as exquisitely as possible.

Because the birds and beasts in the Ten Thousand Souls Forest are unusual, some parts cannot be eaten and some require special treatment, so not only did several imperial chefs come with them, but several imperial doctors also came.

The meal that was finally prepared was quite good. Qin Lang ate his fill. It was already dark, so he wandered around the camp. He happened to hear a few Yulin guards who had gone hunting during the day chatting, and they talked about the word "white fox".

arctic fox…

This made Qin Lang subconsciously think of a little guy, Tuantuan, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

Although Qin Lang had long been accustomed to letting her do what she wanted and not worrying about her safety over the years, these Yulin guards during the day were specialized in hunting after all, so Qin Lang asked another question.

"Several officials... er... two beauties."

"?"

The few Yulin guards standing in front of the tent with swords in hand heard such...such a direct address for the first time. They were a little at a loss, especially since the other party was Captain Qin Lang.

Although the matter of having a lover is just a rumor in the palace, the Yulin Guards who came with them to the Northern Hunting Camp can basically confirm the authenticity of this rumor.

Being called a "beauty" by the emperor's man...

Is that disrespectful?
Several Yulin Guards had this thought at the same time, but it was undeniable that this feeling... well... was quite exciting~
"Master Qin, what's wrong?"

"I just heard you guys talking about a white fox, what's going on?"

"Oh, we saw a white fox when we were hunting during the day, but it ran very fast and we didn't catch it. Then someone said it was a white cat, so we just chatted about it."

"..."

Normally, foxes don’t look like cats, right?
Qin Lang's heart skipped a beat. Could it really be Tuantuan?
