Xigou felt incredibly awkward inside, but defiantly retorted, "That was a giant wolf. Its howl has magic, it awakened my Bloodline, understand?"
Fang Zhixing rolled his eyes and didn't bother to continue the idle chatter with Xigou; instead, he hurried along.
The two of them galloped ceaselessly, covering a distance of one hundred thirty li at top speed.
Suddenly ahead, a three-way fork appeared with a tea stand set up by the roadside.
Travelers often stopped here to drink a bowl of tea and rest their feet before moving on.
Fang Zhixing tied up the horses, walked into the tea stand, sat at a table, ordered a pot of tea, and drank leisurely.
Xigou, watching the passersby, questioned, "You don't even recognize the siblings from Silver Fish Castle; what if you miss them?"
Fang Zhixing paused slightly, then responded, "The mission instructions on the scroll should be well thought out; the issue you raised must have already been considered."
