Ouchi Taming the Cat, starting with the Ten Tiger Forms!

Chapter 534: Flying? I'm fast!

Zhao Feng couldn't help but laugh at the noise of Li Xuan's words.

"Ah Xuan, you are speaking more and more fluently now."

Li Xuan's small and cute cat appearance, coupled with his childish and cute voice, and the "meow" interjection that is completely impossible to ignore, makes it really hard not to love him.

Of course, the "meow" that follows each of Li Xuan's sentences is not an interjection, but a defect that he has not yet overcome when using the technique of secret voice transmission to speak.

His kung fu was not good enough, so if he wanted to speak he had to meow first, and then use various techniques to control the sound waves and convert them into words that everyone could understand.

It's just that the controlled sound waves, because of the blessing of true energy, will enter the ears faster than the sound of meow, which is why everyone thinks that the sound of meow is Li Xuan's interjection.

Li Xuan only explained it to the two girls, and he was too lazy to waste time explaining it to the others.

When his cultivation level reaches a higher level and his skills become more sophisticated in the future, he will naturally no longer need to add this "modal particle".

When Zhao Feng heard that the three little ones had just returned from meeting Emperor Yongyuan in the Zichen Palace, he suddenly realized something.

He heard that the three little ones were returning to the palace today, so he came to the door, but it happened to be the three little ones' meal time.

If it were someone else, they would probably have to wait for a while, but Zhao Feng was already very familiar with the place, and Princess Ankang was also quite casual, so she asked Zhao Feng about his purpose while eating.

"Your Highness, I came here this time to borrow Ah Xuan. I need his help with something."

As soon as Zhao Feng said this, the three little ones became interested.

The Imperial Household Department is full of talented people, and the eunuchs in fancy clothes speak so nicely. Is there anything that needs Li Xuan's help?

Li Xuan thought it was another job for a spy, and he was going to help Zhao Feng cheat, steal, smash and rob. However, Zhao Feng's next words surprised him.

"Ah Xuan, do you still remember the fierce tiger blood you asked me for before?"

Zhao Feng asked Li Xuan.

Li Xuan immediately remembered that this had happened before.

As Mao Ba and Pang Ju were promoted to the ninth rank and began to practice the Blood-Slaying Tiger Claw, Li Xuan again had a need for the blood essence of the fierce tiger.

Especially now that there is another big white, the demand is even greater.

Moreover, the chief monk Zhao Feng also discovered that Li Xuan had the ability to refine the essence and blood of the fierce tiger, and he wanted him to get more so that he could try it on the young eunuchs who were being trained as direct descendants.

But last time Zhao Feng said, this year's fierce tiger blood essence has not been delivered yet.

The blood of the fierce tiger was brought back by the hunting officers in the palace who were responsible for hunting.

Although the hunting officer was only an official position in charge of hunting, he was directly under Emperor Yongyuan and was a fifth-rank official.

The hunting officials were specifically responsible for hunting precious prey for Emperor Yongyuan in dangerous places throughout the country, which would be used as precious training resources and important income for the royal private treasury.

Zhao Feng had told Li Xuan before that the hunting team responsible for the northern border should return to the palace with prey in the autumn.

Now that most of the winter has passed, I think the hunting teams from the north should have returned.

"Have you found a place to stay, meow?"

Li Xuan asked in a baby voice.

"Uh……"

"I guess so."

Zhao Feng looked a little embarrassed when he said this.

"Just a little trouble."

Zhao Feng stretched out the thumb and index finger of his right hand and pinched it gently.

Li Xuan suddenly felt unreliable.

"According to convention, the hunting teams in the North must return in the fall, because in winter, the dangers in the North will increase greatly."

"Although they have come back late in the past, this time is a bit too abnormal, so Your Majesty has asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to pay more attention to their news."

"As a result, we actually found some clues a few days ago."

As soon as Li Xuan saw Zhao Feng's expression, he knew that this clue was probably not good news.

Princess Ankang also asked curiously, "Manager Zhao, are they in trouble?"

"I'm afraid it's more than just a trouble..."

Zhao Feng's expression was somewhat solemn.

"The Ministry of Internal Affairs received a tip that a member of the Northern Team was seen being hunted down in a border town north of Daxing, but the group disappeared immediately."

"I verified the clues yesterday and was about to go there myself, but suddenly I remembered that Xuan is also good at finding people, so I wanted to ask him for help."

The three little ones showed surprise, and Princess Ankang asked directly:

"Manager Zhao is going to take action personally?"

"Is this matter so important?"

Zhao Feng smiled slightly and immediately explained: "The leader of the North Team is my best friend. For both public and private reasons, I have to go there in person."

"Especially since there are three members with sensitive identities in the North Team, if anything happens to them, it will be difficult for Your Majesty to explain to their families."

When Zhao Feng was talking to the three kids about hunting officers, he also mentioned this aspect.

Among the hunting officials, there are many children of noble families and many members of the royal family. In addition, there are also confidants trained by the royal family.

Even Zhao Feng, when he was young, served as a hunting officer for a while.

After Zhao Feng’s explanation, the three little ones immediately understood the seriousness of the matter.

"How long does it take to go back and forth, meow?"

Li Xuan didn't waste time and directly asked the question that concerned him most.

Zhao Feng also said just now that the whereabouts of the Northern Border Hunting Officer were found in the northern border town.

It would probably take quite a while to go back and forth from the capital.

If it takes too long, Li Xuan will not be able to accept it.

Although Princess Ankang and Yu'er now have some ability to protect themselves, it is still far from enough.

Although Emperor Yongyuan was protecting him in the palace, Li Xuan was still worried.

The good days in Jingyang Palace had just begun, and the previous experiences made it difficult for Li Xuan to feel very safe.

In response, Zhao Feng answered confidently:
"Ah Xuan, you can rest assured about the journey there and back."

"My speed is now even better than my godfather's. If we only count the round trip, it will only take five days."

"If we go all out, we can do it within three days."

"But compared to the time spent on the journey, looking for people is probably what takes up the most time."

Zhao Feng also spoke the truth.

Li Xuan had no idea how long the journey was, but when Zhao Feng said it would only take three to five days round trip, he thought it was acceptable.

Seeing Li Xuan's hesitation, Princess Ankang immediately spoke:

"Ah Xuan, if you are worried about us, there is no need to worry."

"At worst, Sister Yu'er and I will just stay in Jingyang Palace during the few days you're away."

"It just so happens that I've been running back and forth a lot recently, and I'm a little tired. I'm going to take advantage of these few days to have a good rest."

Princess Ankang saw Li Xuan's concerns and began to persuade him.

Human lives are at stake and the situation is still very urgent.

Moreover, being able to get Zhao Feng to take action personally will definitely have a significant impact.

Princess Ankang believed that they could and should help.

After all, I am often taken care of by the two stewards on a daily basis.

Moreover, the three little ones were all very clear about Zhao Feng's love of face.

If he could solve the problem himself, he would not specifically ask Li Xuan for help.

Li Xuan nodded, silently calculated the time in his mind, and then said to Zhao Feng:
"Ten days at most. I must be back before then."

Li Xuan must come back before the next time he absorbs the cold for Princess Ankang.

Although the coldness in Princess Ankang's body has stabilized a lot now, and has only erupted when provoked by Li Xuan recently, but for the sake of safety, Li Xuan still plans to leave more time.

Li Xuan did not dare to leave Princess Ankang's side. Although he was afraid that she would be harmed by villains, it was more because of the coldness in her body.

If the coldness in Princess Ankang's body erupted when Li Xuan was not around, he dared not imagine the consequences.

But if he took Princess Ankang with him, Li Xuan was afraid that he would not be able to protect her outside.

At least in the capital, Emperor Yongyuan's words are still effective, but if the emperor is far away, it is hard to say.

If someone hired a top expert to assassinate Princess Ankang, even Li Xuan and Zhao Feng together might not be able to stop him.

If someone of Mr. Ye’s level appears, we will have no place to cry even if we want to.

Therefore, after much deliberation, Li Xuan set a deadline of ten days.

When Zhao Feng saw that Li Xuan was willing to go with him, he immediately laughed happily:
"Okay, okay, with Xuan's help, ten days will be more than enough."

"Don't worry, if the problem is not resolved by then, I will definitely send it back to you first!" In fact, Zhao Feng was in a similar situation. As the chief steward of the Imperial Household Department, it was impossible for him to leave the capital for too long.

"When are we leaving, meow?"

In response to Li Xuan's question, Zhao Feng silently stretched out his hand and pointed outside the door.

Li Xuan's eyes twitched, but he also knew that saving people was like putting out a fire and could not be delayed.

He immediately took out some things that Princess Ankang and Yu'er might need at home from the Dihong bone ring, and then took a stroll around the storehouse of Jingyang Palace to replenish some necessary supplies while away.

Li Xuan put away his playful thoughts and became serious.

In the past, when he went out, he would turn back and pull the door three times to make sure he had closed it. He could be said to be overly cautious, even a little paranoid.

But after he became a kitten, his personality changed a lot.

But when it comes to serious matters, his cautious nature returns.

Seeing that Li Xuan was well prepared before going out, the three of them couldn't help but laugh.

After Li Xuan had prepared everything, he followed Zhao Feng.

"Ah Xuan, be careful on the road~"

Princess Ankang and Yu'er said goodbye to Li Xuan.

Before leaving, Li Xuan rubbed the two girls' faces, feeling a little complicated.

When he went out before, he only went within the capital. This time he was going so far, so it was naturally not comparable to the past.

"Be a good boy and watch over the house, meow."

"Wait till I come back meow!"

Princess Ankang and Yu'er looked at their kitten who kept giving them instructions, their eyes full of love.

"Don't worry, Xuan, we will take good care of ourselves!"

After a moment of reluctance to part, Princess Ankang and Yu'er watched Li Xuan and Zhao Feng disappear over the courtyard wall.

……

Li Xuan and Zhao Feng boarded a delivery carriage from the Imperial Household Department and left the palace.

It seems that Zhao Feng left the palace secretly this time and wanted to hide it from others.

Zhao Feng looked at the somewhat sad Li Xuan and couldn't help but say:

"Is it necessary for you to go on a long journey?"

Li Xuan glared at Zhao Feng unhappily.

"Okay, okay, as for that!"

Zhao Feng quickly changed his words.

Li Xuan was no longer interested in talking, and immediately asked while wagging his tail:

"Aren't you in a hurry?"

"How do you take the carriage?"

Zhao Feng was just bragging about his speed, but he turned around and got on the slow-moving carriage.

"I still have to be careful when I leave the palace. It's better for me to be erratic."

Li Xuan could also understand what Zhao Feng meant.

After all, he holds an important position. If anyone knew he was gone, there might be trouble.

Even though Manager Shang is watching, it's still better to be cautious.

"What's up with the hunting officers?"

"Is it common to encounter such troubles?"

Li Xuan then asked curiously.

"The job of a hunter is indeed dangerous, but the danger lies in the hunting process."

"It's a rare thing to be hunted down so blatantly like this time."

"They didn't dare to show their faces even after arriving in Daxing. This shows that the people chasing them are not simple."

When Li Xuan heard this, he couldn't help but asked nervously:
"Then can you handle it?"

Li Xuan was really afraid that Zhao Feng would fail soon after being promoted to the third rank.

"What are you talking about? After all, I am now a top-3rd rank expert."

After Zhao Feng finished speaking, he coughed a little unconfidently and added:
"At worst, running away is no problem."

(^^)

Li Xuan just looked at Zhao Feng quietly, and even Zhao Feng's old face felt a little hot.

"..."

Quietly, Zhao Feng seemed to hear Li Xuan's silent sigh.

Zhao Feng became anxious on the spot.

"Why not run away if you can't win?"

"Are you going to stay here and die?"

"Ah Xuan, you are still young, and you don't understand many things."

"When you encounter something in the future, you will know that what I said is true."

The more Zhao Feng spoke, the less confident he seemed.

Li Xuan was too lazy to continue talking about these trivial things and started to inquire about the strength of the hunting officers' team.

The hunting officers were divided into four teams: East, West, South and North. The one that got into trouble this time was the North Team, which was responsible for the northern border.

The North Team has one leader and twelve team members, a total of thirteen members.

The team leader is of the fourth rank and was born into a family of eunuchs.

As for the team members, their strengths varied, but they were all mid-third-grade warriors, mostly fifth-grade, with a few at sixth-grade.

Such a team is powerful enough to walk around the world in a domineering manner, and no one dares to cause trouble to them.

Moreover, these people also have the status of Daxing hunting officers, so no one is so blind as to dare to provoke them.

But now that someone dares to hunt down the Northern Team's hunting officer, I'm afraid the other party is also determined to kill us all.

Li Xuan and Zhao Feng could only hope that they were still in time.

The man and the cat left the palace in a carriage, and then changed carriages several times in the capital before they successfully left the city.

When they reached a wasteland five miles outside the city, Zhao Feng got off the carriage carrying Li Xuan.

"Hyun, hold on tight!"

As soon as he got off the carriage, Zhao Feng jumped into the air and took Li Xuan to see his current speed.

Zhao Feng's figure turned into a residual shadow in the air and went straight to the distant sky.

Li Xuan was shocked as he watched the scenery rapidly moving backwards under his feet.

Zhao Feng seemed to have turned into a part of the wind, flying naturally with the wind.

However, the movement and noise produced during the process were extremely weak and could hardly be detected.

Li Xuan, who was held in Zhao Feng's arms, could feel that they were surrounded by a strong wind force.

Li Xuan even felt that Zhao Feng was about to merge with this force.

"It's still the breeze way!"

“It’s just that the way it’s applied is different.”

Li Xuan was secretly shocked and took the opportunity to feel Zhao Fengyu's condition while flying in the air.

However, they were flying faster and faster, and Li Xuan couldn't open his eyes because of the strong wind.

Zhao Feng was not affected at all, only his hair fluttered slightly, as if he was in a completely different world from Li Xuan.

As a last resort, Li Xuan could only use his Yin-Yang Qi to block the wind.

But when Li Xuan used the Yin-Yang Qi, the wind-attributed force around them was stimulated to become more active, and some special changes occurred.

The next moment, Zhao Feng's speed became faster and faster, as if there was no limit.

"Hahaha, have fun!"

Zhao Feng laughed loudly, expressing his joy.

The power of wind seemed to be infected by Zhao Feng as well, and the wind pushing Zhao Feng became stronger and stronger.

Visible ripples exploded silently behind them, but Zhao Feng and Li Xuan didn't notice them. They were only focused on appreciating the increasingly blurry scenery before them.
