Chapter 273: You Shall Go With Me

Lu Yunxiao looked at Zi Yi with his lips pressed together for a long time before he said, “Ok.”

He added, “But only after we enter the snow-capped mountains.”

“Why?”

Zi Yi was prepared to reach for the ball in her pocket and she looked at him in discontentment after she heard what he said.

Lu Yunxiao glanced at her hand. “It’s unsafe here.”

Zi Yi accepted his reasoning and nodded. “Who are they? Why did they kill everyone on the floor last night?”

“People from an organization.” As for what organization they belonged to, Lu Yunxiao did not reveal it to her. “The medicinal ingredient you took yesterday is a miracle medicine in Country C. There’s only one of its kind and they stole it.”

She subconsciously asked, “You were helping the royal family of Country C to get this back?”

“No. I need this medicinal ingredient too.”

It’s no wonder that he had put in such a great deal of effort last night.

However, she still had something she did not understand. “There were people in every suite. Did they all have a package in order to confuse you?”

“Yes.”

The corner of her lips curled up. “It seems like they’re a little unlucky. It just so happened that the package that contained the medicinal ingredient was placed in my suite.”

Lu Yunxiao nodded and said, “Pack up.”

He left after saying that.

Zi Yi had also gone to tidy up her belongings.

Little Loli just happened to return after Zi Yi finished packing everything. There was a rabbit skin in her hand.

Zi Yi looked at her in confusion. “Why did you bring that back?”

Little Loli said, “I want to make a hat made of rabbit skin. It’ll definitely be very cute.”

Zi Yi: “…”

Soon, someone had come over to call for Zi Yi.

When she and Little Loli came out, there were already several Off-Road Vehicles parked outside.

Everyone moved swiftly and got in the cars in the blink of an eye.

However, she discovered that some of them did not seem to be tagging along.

Just then, an ORV[1] stopped before her. The person who opened the door was Lu Yunxiao. “Get in.”

Zi Yi motioned for Little Loli to get in first. She came to the driver’s seat and pointed behind her. “The rest aren’t following us?”

“They’ll be staying.”

Those who stayed were responsible for dealing with those who were chasing their tail. It was so that they had time to search for the medicinal ingredient.

Zi Yi immediately understood.

But…

“Let me drive.”

“No need.”

Lu Yunxiao looked in front after he said that and did not spare her another glance. “Get in.”

Zi Yi did not insist. She bypassed the front of the car and opened the backseat door.

After she got in, the car drove out.

They were at the foot of the snow mountains and the temperature was merely slightly lower than usual. The further the car went, the lower the temperature dropped. The heating inside the car was soon switched on and they did not feel the chilliness.

This snow mountain was very large and tall. The road towards the waist of the mountain was fairly flat and the slope also gradually got steeper. However, when they reached the mountain waist, the road was basically covered in snow and the slope was very steep.

Just then, she saw Lu Yunxiao informing everyone using a communication device. “Alight and walk after driving for another half a kilometer.”

Zi Yi looked at the snow-white land before her and asked, “What equipment did you prepare for entering the mountains?”

Lu Yunxiao gave her a short rundown and she nodded in response.

He added, “There are mountaineering clothes in the back. Put them on first.”

She turned around and saw a large bag in the back.

She took it and put on the mountaineering clothes.

The car stopped at that moment.

They had alighted swiftly and got dressed in mountaineering clothes. One of them stood there with a backpack while the other said to Lu Yunxiao, “Leader, everyone is ready.”

Lu Yunxiao nodded and glanced at the luggage Zi Yi was carrying with her.

“Little Loli can carry my luggage.”

Little Loli immediately lifted the luggage.

In the end, Lu Yunxiao did not say anything and led everyone towards the snowy mountains.

At first, everyone assumed that Zi Yi would be a deadweight and all of them subconsciously slowed down slightly in preparation to take care of her.

But as time passed by, they came to realize that they were the deadweight instead.

Her luggage wasn’t very big, but there were many useful things inside. She took out two circular balls from inside and swiftly configured them. Soon, they transformed into a snowboard.

As Little Loli was a robot, her legs had simply changed into a powered snowboard.

Zi Yi placed her hands on Little Loli’s shoulders and she led her away for a fun ride.

Everyone was dumbfounded at the sight, and they started picking up their speed shortly afterwards.

After they had been walking for quite some time, Little Loli suddenly said, “Master, there’s a helicopter heading in this direction. It’s at…”

Little Loli reported a longitude and latitude.

Before Zi Yi spoke up, Lu Yunxiao had got everyone to stop.

“Split up and search. Pay attention to conceal yourselves. Gather in the valley after you’ve found it.”

What are you looking for?” Zi Yi asked.

“Blood Lotus.”

Zi Yi’s eyes brightened at the name. “Little Loli and I came to look for the Blood Lotus too.”

The Blood Lotus was not a Snow Lotus, but a very rare medicinal ingredient that was only available on the mountains of Country C. Moreover, it was not easily found.

As the Blood Lotus looked exactly the same as a Snow Lotus,but it would only turn blood red upon contact.

Zi Yi thought for a moment and said, “Little Loli and I will be a team.”

“No.” Lu Yunxiao’s tone was those that did not accept rejection for an answer. “You shall go with me.”

He did not even give Zi Yi the opportunity to speak and walked away.

Zi Yi glanced at Lu Yunxiao’s back view for several seconds before she followed in his footsteps.

Not only was the snow mountain large, the weather condition here was also very harsh. They did not walk for a long time before a snowstorm appeared.

Zi Yi raised her hand to block the wind that made her face hurt. Lu Yunxiao’s large physique then walked beside her and it just happened to be the direction where the wind blew.

She looked at Lu Yunxiao and an inexplicably strange feeling surged in her heart.

She opened her mouth, wanting to say something but gave up in the end and asked, “Do you know where there would be a Blood Lotus?”

“I don’t know.”

Zi Yi thought for a moment and said, “Why don’t I get Little Loli to search?”

Lu Yunxiao looked towards Little Loli standing there obediently and said, “I’d have to trouble you.”

The corner of Zi Yi’s lips curled up and she did not forget to remind him. “You said we would fight when we arrived at the snow mountains.”

Lu Yunxiao glanced at her for a second and shifted his gaze to the front. With a deep voice, he said, “We’ll talk after we find the Blood Lotus.”

Zi Yi nodded and said to Little Loli, “Use your detector to detect the Blood Lotus’ position. Stand guard there after you find it and send me a signal.”

“Noted, Master.”

Little Loli put the luggage on the ground and with a jump, she flew away.

Just as Zi Yi planned to talk to Lu Yunxiao, he lifted her luggage and said, “It’s exposed here. Let’s find a place to wait first.”

He headed forwards after saying that.

Zi Yi and the other two men had hastily followed up to him.

Just as they found a big rock that blocked the wind, a helicopter flew over.

The people should have discovered the rest of their group, as it had flown straight in a certain direction.
