  After more than an hour of rest, the group continued their journey, and before entering the Mountain Range of Magical Beasts . They bypassed the edge of the middle part of the Mountain Range of Magical Beasts and were headed to the neighboring country of the Wate Empire—the Saint Malo Empire .

  Li Luo walked beside Elvis, his mind was still filled with the image of Elvis lowering his head and gently brushing his lips . He unconsciously leaned his head slightly to the side and looked at Elvis’ well-defined side of his face for a while, seemed somewhat in a trance .

  Elvis immediately noticed Li Luo’s gaze at him, he slightly turned his face toward Li Luo, with the corner of his lips seeming to contain a light and gentle smile, he asked, “What’s wrong?”


  Li Luo quickly shook his head, and turned his head, before repeatedly saying, “Nothing, nothing . ”


  Looking at Li Luo’s reaction that resembled a frightened little animal, Elvis couldn’t help but slightly narrow his eyes, as his azure pupils deepened to some degree, and turned into a deep blue color—which was like the color of blue lake water polluted by black ink .

  In fact, at that time, when Li Luo used his mouth to feed him the holy fruit, he was indeed unconscious . However a few minutes later he had regained his consciousness, and then he felt Li Luo’s soft lips touching his lips .

  At that time, Elvis’ heartbeat rapidly accelerated for a moment, but soon he calmed down, before his emotional state was reversed, and as if demons and gods were at work, he directly kissed Li Luo, as he pressed him within his bosom .

  Since he had been longing for it for a very long time, his kiss was very overbearing and full of possessiveness . He originally thought Li Luo would be unable to stand it and pushed him away, but Li Luo unexpectedly didn’t put up any resistance, apparently, he was afraid of hurting him, and he only occasionally issued a soft groan and let him have more control . Only when he was kissed until he was unable to breathe easily, did Li Luo changed into beast form and jumped out from his embrace .

  Elvis continued to pretend to be unconscious, he calculated a good time in his heart, after a long while he pretended that he finally sobered up and opened his eyes .

  When he opened his eyes, Elvis began to observe Li Luo’s look and emotion showing in his eyes . After he woke up, Li Luo looked at his for a moment, before he slightly dodged his eyes, but not from disgust, but because he was shy . Although he quickly hid his emotions, Elvis was still keenly aware of it .

  Elvis was very happy in his heart, in order to conceal the joyous expression in his eyes and to let Li Luo break away from his faint sense of overcautiousness, he bowed his head and used the matter of his own breakthrough of levels to divert Li Luo’s attention .

  Sure enough, this little fool instantly forgot what he was thinking about, and immediately congratulated him .

  Elvis’ eyes darkened, although Ludwig was still not aware of his intention, maybe he was aware of it, but he subconsciously denied his own conjecture . However he could be sure that Ludwig also had feelings for him .

  It was not as if he didn’t want to get Ludwig, he wanted to have him as fast as he could, but he didn’t want to force Ludwig .

  He wanted this man, he wanted to get him completely, almost making him going crazy; he wanted this man to never leave him, and could only stay by his side; he longed for everything about this person . However there was always a feeling in his heart that reminded him that if he forcefully took him, this man would most likely use any means to leave him, this was not the result he wanted .

  However now he knew that Ludwig was not without any affection toward him, he was confident that he would accept him . He had been together with Ludwig for a long time, sooner or later he would make him completely accept him—and he felt that moment wouldn’t be far away ……

  The party walked inside the Mountain Range of Magical Beasts for two days, before finally reaching the edge of the middle of the forest .

  Everyone’s nerves were tensed, after all, it was very likely that they would encounter fourth rank magical beasts in here . This was the most dangerous zone in their trip, and they had to travel through this area for three days before they could once again enter the perimeter areas of the Mountain Range of Magical Beasts .

  Elvis approached Li Luo’s side, as his azure eyes looked vigilantly at the surroundings, Li Luo also pressed his hand on the long sword at his waist, ready at any time to pull out the sword and chop the magical beasts .

  On the first day they were inside that zone, they spent a lot of time by walking cautiously . In the evening, no one dared to make a fire, afraid the light of the fire would attract the attention of magical beasts that were hunting for food at night . Only insect repellent powder was scattered in a circle around the place they were resting . After hastily eating a bit of dry food, they began to rest while taking turns in guarding .

  The next day, when the sky was slightly bright, everyone immediately got ready to continue their journey . To be able to get out of this range quicker, they had to leave early, after all, it was very tiring to be so tense all the time .

  However on this day everyone’s luck was not good, they had just walked through a flowing stream, and right away encountered a fourth rank magical beast that was rushing over to drink water .

  The magical beast’s body was wrapped in thick armor, with a long pointed horn in its head, and a long tail, it was the type of magical beast that wrapped in thick and heavy armor—an Armored Dragon . At the tip of its tail was a huge sphere object—this was also the only attacking weapon of this fourth rank magical beast, if they were swept by its tail, it was estimated that they would directly break several ribs, and if they were swept once again, their life would be entirely gone .

  The Armored Dragon’s eyes quickly emitted an ominous glint, after it saw the party of more than ten people, the magical beast opened its mouth and exposed its sharp sawteeth, before rushing toward them .

  “Properly defend and attack, don’t let it get close to our goods!” The scarred middle-aged man shouted, he was taking the lead in pulling out his broadsword, and rushed toward that fourth rank magical beast which was the Armored Dragon .

  Elvis took out his magic staff, and his mouth began to chant the spell, there were countless vines immediately sprouting from the ground, and tightly entangled the Armored Dragon’s body, hindering the pace of its advancement .

  The scarred middle-aged man slashed the Armored Dragon’s body with his broadsword, and the blade’s tip immediately pierced the outer layer of magical beast’s armor, issuing a dazzling spark and a huge collision sound .

  The Armored Dragon was enraged by the scarred middle-aged man’s action, so much that its eyes emitted a crimson ray of light, the beast raised its head and roared loudly, before slamming its legs down with force, immediately struggling to get free and broke most of the vines that entangled its body .

  The magical beast swept over the long tail behind its body at the scarred middle-aged man, wanting to strike him .

  The scarred middle-aged man avoided the danger, and Elvis once again chanted the spell as a flashing silver magic array immediately appeared above the Armored Dragon . The Armored Dragon was once again tied up from taking action, the next second, a few dozens of beams of light rose, and gathered at the top of the Armored Dragon’s head, forming a cage, trapping the Armored Dragon .

  The Armored Dragon let out a more furious roar, its eyes flashed a black and red light alternately, everyone suddenly felt the ground under their feet begin to shake, it looked as if the earth was going to split open, it was obvious that the ground began to sway just like ocean waves that moved up and down .

  Li Luo was shaken by the violent waves under his feet, he wasn’t able to stand still, and fell to the side, but Elvis who was next to him immediately stretched out his hand and encircled Li Luo’s waist, before taking him into his embrace .

  Then in the next second, there were sharp earth thorns that emerged from the place where Li Luo was about to fall, if Elvis hadn’t pulled Li Luo in time, Li Luo would very likely have instantly fallen on that thorn in the ground . This situation had also occurred for the surrounding people, fortunately, Elvis had reinforced the carriage with magic in advance, so nothing was damaged .

  While hugging Li Luo’s waist, Elvis once again casted the spell, and a dazzling silver light immediately flashed on the ground under everyone’s foot, as all of the original protruding earth thorns melted back into the ground . “Quickly leave this place, I can still trap the Armored Dragon for a while . ”


  When everyone heard Elvis’ words, they all quickly sped up, and left this place while pulling the horses . Elvis once again reinforced the magic array that trapped the Armored Dragon, before quickly leaving the scene with Li Luo .

  Li Luo’s looked like he still didn’t completely relax after the rapid change of events that happened just a moment ago, until he found that Elvis’ hand was still on his waist, and he felt Elvis’ scorching palm’s temperature on the skin around his waist . Li Luo’s face couldn’t help but immediately get hot, he pushed Elvis away, and stood a few steps away from him .

  “What’s wrong?” Elvis asked, as he looked at Li Luo’s white cheeks that were flushed red, with the corner of his mouth revealing a faint smile .

  Looking at Li Luo’s expression, really making him want to imprison him within his bosom, and then fiercely kiss his light colored lips . Let his lips bloom into a more vivid color, and would certainly become more attractive than the present .

  “Nothing, let’s keep going . It was almost evening, we must be careful and quickly catch up with the escort team, and it would be bad if the Armored Dragon once again overtook us . ” Li Luo’s eyes were drifting, as he immediately found a suitable reason, and then sped up a few steps and walked in front of Elvis .

  Elvis did not expose Li Luo, rather he followed behind Li Luo’s back, staring at the slim figure of the young man not far away in the front .

  The two of them quickly caught up with everyone who was rushing ahead, and Li Luo’s somewhat disorderly heartbeat just a moment ago also gradually returned to normal .

  Everyone showed a very good welcome to their return, if it weren’t for Elvis, the team would probably have lost several members, before they could escape from the claws of the Armored Dragon .

  They once again rushed to the established route for more than an hour, before everyone’s hearts were relieved, and slowed down their pace a little bit, ready to find a place to prepare for dinner .

  After the quick dinner, everyone once again continued their journey, and rushed to their destination .

  As long as they still didn’t hand over the items into the hands of the person who was to receive the goods, they would not be able to stop worrying . Only when all these items were handed over, could they receive their commission, if they accidentally lost one of the items, a part of their commission would be deducted, but even if it was only a part of the commission, based on their huge number of team members, it was also a large amount of money .

  Therefore, everyone tried their best to protect the items in each carriage, and didn’t dare to slack off in the slightest .
