My Cold and Elegant CEO Wife
Page 1693Zheng Huo’s eyes glowed with stars as he waddled into his room, completely drunk.
After Qingfeng returned to his room, he found the Second Prince waiting inside, whose face filled with joy when he saw Qingfeng enter.
Second Prince hurried before Qingfeng, closed the windows, and said quietly, “Qingfeng, have you gotten the Crimson Fire Desert map yet?”
Qingfeng smiled lightly and said with arrogance, “Don’t worry Second Prince, of course, I did.”
Qingfeng looked at Second Prince with joy and excitement.
Qingfeng drank with Zheng Huo on purpose, because he knew that the Desert Hotel was the oldest hotel in Fire Eagle City, and Zheng Huo was the boss of the Desert Hotel, so he definitely had a map of the Crimson Fire Desert.
As soon as they got the Crimson Fire Desert map, the danger of entering the Crimson Fire Desert would greatly decrease, and they would have a chance to get more treasures.
The Second Prince quickly glanced over Qingfeng’s map, and after he made sure it was correct, he raised his thumb and looked at Qingfeng with praise and admiration.
The Second Prince said quietly, “Qingfeng you’re too powerful, I clearly saw you drink fifty liters of alcohol. Even if put my life in it, I wouldn’t be able to drink that much.”
Qingfeng smiled lightly, waved his hand, and said, “My head is dizzy now as well, and I need rest. Let’s leave early tomorrow morning, and try to enter the Crimson Fire Desert soon so that we can find the monarch soul fruit.”
Fifty liters of alcohol wasn’t a small amount, not to mention the supreme grade elixirs that were mixed in, each with incredible power. If it were any other self-cultivator, they would have been intoxicated half to death.
Only Qingfeng had physical strength and spirit energy powerful enough to withstand the effects of this supreme grade herbal alcohol.
On the next day, the sun rose as the warmth of the sunlight heated the ground and raised the temperature of the air to a scorching degree.
Lingyun was situated on the southern side of the Crimson Fire Continent and was the hottest kingdom around. Most of the time, it was baked under the sun with high temperatures. Especially around the Crimson Fire Desert borders, the temperature was able to reach fifty degrees.
Qingfeng woke up early and led the Second Prince, Black Puppy, Li Yang, and ten other men in black out of the Desert Hotel towards the Crimson Fire Desert.
On top of the Desert Hotel, a burly man stood quietly before the window, as he looked at Qingfeng while Qingfeng left with hints of oddness in his eyes.
This burly man was Zheng Huo, who Qingfeng drank with last night. He was actually defeated by Qingfeng in drinking, and even gave his treasured five hundred-year-old Crimson Fire Desert map away.
However, Zheng Huo wasn’t regretful at all, because he already saw that Qingfeng had mysterious power and techniques, which not even he could see through yet.
Zheng Huo watched as Qingfeng left and said, “What an interesting person. I hope we’ve become friends, and you’ll bring me back some treasures from the Crimson Fire Desert.”
Zheng Huo’s family was cursed by a mysterious group five hundred years ago, causing them to be unable to enter the Crimson Fire Desert.
Even though they had the map, they weren’t allowed to get the treasures inside, so this time he gave the Crimson Fire Desert map to Qingfeng on purpose.
Qingfeng and the others might have woken up early, but other powerful self-cultivators woke up earlier, like the Crown Prince, the Third Princess, as well as the princes, princesses, and lords of the other four kingdoms, all of them moving towards the Crimson Fire Desert.
They had also found Crimson Fire Desert maps in the city, but they were all incomplete and didn’t mark down some of the dangerous places.
Only Qingfeng had the most complete version of the Crimson Fire Desert map, and it marked even some of the deadly forbidden areas, where ferocious beasts lived. Not even supreme level masters could get close; they would definitely die if they approached.
As Qingfeng walked outside the city gate, he met Yidao Leng, whose face changed right upon seeing Qingfeng.
Yidao was terrified by Qingfeng’s spirit energy. After he returned, he was wounded in some parts of the depths of his mind and still hadn’t recovered yet.
After he saw Qingfeng, Yidao turned to leave and didn’t make any trouble for him, but the coldness in his eyes did not disappear.
Qingfeng didn’t bother to look at Yidao, because he was worried about Sky-Devouring Snake. Qingfeng turned to ask Black Puppy, “Puppy, use your nose to smell where Sky-Devouring Snake is. We must go to find it right away.”
Qingfeng nodded and turned to talk to the Second Prince, “Second Prince, I have a friend three hundred miles north of the Crimson Fire Desert, I must go there. Will you come or should we go separate ways?”
The Second Prince said without hesitation, “Qingfeng, save your friend first, and I’ll come with you.”
The Second Prince was very clear minded, he wanted to find the monarch soul fruit, but he knew that he wouldn’t be able to defeat the princesses, princes, lords, and masters of the other kingdoms with his abilities.
Qingfeng nodded and thanked the Second Prince because he knew his hardships. Then the group of people hurried northwards into the Crimson Fire Desert.
The Crimson Fire Desert was the most dangerous place in Lingyun and was very well known throughout the other kingdoms because many of talented people had died there.
However, this time, the monarch soul fruit appeared inside the Crimson Fire Desert. It was an imperial class elixir, which attracted the other five kingdoms, as all the other supreme grade talents all came.
If it wasn’t because of the Five Country Treaty, then the emperors might have even come themselves!
