She hadn't eaten for days. Although she was full of energy, she always felt that her stomach was empty, as if something was missing.

"I have a pot with me. Let's go, I'll take you out." Tuoba Rui said as he stood up and pulled her.

Hua Ruge immediately struggled out of his grasp: "Go by yourself."

"Fine." Tuoba Rui was a little helpless, and the two of them left the room one after the other, passing through the camp and arriving at a mountain range. At the foot of the mountain was a sect's encampment, and there was no one at the halfway point of the mountain.

The two of them flew up the mountain and after finding a flat ground, Tuoba Rui went into the forest to find ingredients.

Hua Ruge, on the other hand, had a fire lit where she was. She went into the forest and randomly picked up some branches and bunches to burn on, then flicked a small flame at it and started a fire. She sat there, holding onto the fire, and looked down the mountain.

On one side of the mountain was leaning against one side of the land, while on the other side was leaning against the sea. At this moment, the red color of the sea water had faded quite a bit.

She was just about to exclaim at the cruelty of war when the artifact spirit sent a sound transmission to her mind. "Master, there's a very dense evil aura around here."

"Evil Qi?" After Hua Ruge heard this, he carefully felt it for a while before shaking his head.

"With your cultivation, of course you wouldn't be able to find out." The artifact spirit was not polite at all as he picked up his shortcoming.

Hua Ruge said snappily: "Just directly speak of the matter. What evil aura is this?"

"In the middle of this mountain, there is a person refining a formation. This is where the evil energy is coming from." "Yes," the artifact spirit replied.

Hua Ruge squinted: "What's that formation?"

"I don't know much about formations, but it looks like it's an augmentation formation prepared for weapon crafting." The artifact spirit said.

"Refining?" Hua Ruge looked at the belly of the mountain beneath his feet and then looked at the ocean.

Dinghai Bead?

"Have you heard of Dinghai Bead?" Hua Ruge asked.

"No, what's that?" The artifact spirit's voice was confused.

Hua Ruge had always been the same, this artifact spirit was a person from the Five Continents, and Dinghai Bead only appeared after the Five Continents had been split.

"Alright, I understand." Hua Ruge said, and then began to think again.

At this time, Tuoba Rui also came back, he threw all the chickens and rabbits he caught on the ground, then smiled at her: "There's going to be good food soon."

"You seem to be in an exceptionally good mood today." Hua Ruge was infected by him and stopped thinking about other things.

"I've been pestered by that woman for a few days, and now I've finally gotten rid of her being with you. Of course, relax." Tuoba Rui said as he sat down and began to deal with the rabbits.

Hua Ruge laughed and asked: "Am I that good?"

"Better than any other woman." Tuoba Rui said with certainty.

Other than Hua Ruge, he felt uncomfortable with anyone else.

Hua Ruge dared to touch his face and said: "That's more like it."

Tuoba Rui's hands were dealing with the rabbit, he had no way of retaliating, he only glanced at her unhappily.

"By the way, did you notice anything strange about this mountain?" Hua Ruge asked.

Tuoba Rui carefully felt it and said, "The dao rhythm here is wrong, as if something is interfering with it. However, this kind of phenomenon is common in many places, so there is nothing wrong with it."

"The artifact spirit told me that the belly of the mountain beneath our feet is empty. Someone is inside refining a formation." Hua Ruge said.

"A grand formation?" Tuoba Rui had a strange expression as he asked: "What great formation is it?"

"I'm not sure about that yet, but I believe it has something to do with the Dinghai Bead. Their plan this time might not be small." Hua Ruge said.

Tuoba Rui squinted his eyes: "No matter what, these people are still not good at scheming."

"Yeah, we should make our plans now, and think of how to deal with them in the future." Hua Ruge said.

Tuoba Rui nodded his head: "Don't think too much into it for now, we're here to eat."

"Now that you mention it, I'm really a bit hungry." Previously, when she was with the doctors from Demonic Sect, she could still occasionally eat and drink, but ever since she reached the core, she had not eaten anything at all.

He had to think about so many things every day.

She leaned against a large rock at the back, watching him deal with the rabbits as she said, "I really don't know how long this war will last."

"It's only been a few months since the people of the territory and the disciples of the sects have complained. The higher ups should be even more anxious than you and me, so it shouldn't be for long." Tuoba Rui analyzed.

"I hope so. I hope we can stop them." Hua Ruge looked forward to it.

Tuoba Rui comforted her: "I will."

With him by his side, Hua Ruge was a lot more at ease. As a result, she slowly closed her eyes.

Tuoba Rui was silently cooking by the side. The rabbit stew did not wait for him to call Hua Ruge before moving its nose and opening its eyes: "It recovered so quickly?"

Looking at her, her eyes were wide open.

"Eat." Tuoba Rui took down the pot, and then took out the tableware and gave it to her.

Hua Ruge pinched a piece of meat and gave it to him: "You eat first."

Tuoba Rui did not have any appetite to speak, but he would basically eat everything she fed him, and it was no exception this time.

Seeing him eat it, Hua Ruge laughed and then started to eat.

Tuoba Rui took out another pot for her to stew the chicken soup.

Hua Ruge looked at him and said: "If there comes a day when we meet with misfortune, even if you had this skill, you wouldn't be hungry."

"Alright, if I am in trouble, I will be in charge of cooking, and you will be in charge of supporting me." Tuoba Rui smiled as he accepted it.

Hua Ruge mumbled while chewing on his bones, "You're saying the opposite."

"Wouldn't it be nice to have a personal cook like me?" Tuoba Rui looked at her lovingly.

Hua Ruge swallowed his saliva and silently nodded.

"I think it's good too." Tuoba Rui said to himself.

After Hua Ruge heard this, he laughed so hard that even his teeth could no longer see his eyes.

The two of them stayed on the mountain until dusk. After Hua Ruge finished eating his fill, he stayed at the same place for a while longer before returning from the outside.

Along the way, Hua Ruge kept on urging Tuoba Rui to stay in his own room. Whenever Tuoba Rui thought of returning, he would be entangled by other women and he would have no way of dealing with it. However, on the surface, he was as still as a mountain, and no matter what Hua Ruge said, he could not agree.

Hua Ruge had no choice but to bring him back to his own room. Luckily the crazy old man was in closed door cultivation recently, he wouldn't appear.

They stayed together for three days, but no one came over during that time. Tuoba Rui was also very satisfied, although he couldn't return to his original appearance with Xiao Ge, he was still satisfied.1

Finally, there were no more women to pester.

Hua Ruge was a little hesitant, afraid that others would misunderstand. But three days later, she found out that she was overthinking things, and there were not many people who paid attention to them here, much less cared where they slept at night.
