Chapter 294 Sauvignon Blanc 51
Before he knew it, Ling Xi had already been in Chenyi City for several months.

Fang Fengbei disappeared half a month ago. Ling Xi knew that he turned into Xiangliu and returned to Chen Rongjun's territory in Qingshui Town.

The Central Plains has entered the depths of winter. Water on the roads freezes into ice. It is extremely cold.

The Central Plains has distinct four seasons, with summer being hot and winter being cold.

In recent days, there has been heavy snow in Chenyi City. The ground was covered with a thick layer of snow, which was high enough to cover people's calves, making people not want to go out.

The snow finally stopped, and Shi Xi took advantage of the time to hold a plum blossom viewing banquet.

There is a plum forest near the city of Chenyi, where red plum blossoms are planted. After the snow, all the flowers bloomed.

Viewing plum blossoms after the snow is particularly appropriate.

The New Year is only a month away. Ling Xi has planned to leave Chenyi and return to Haoling in two days. She had promised her father that she would go back to celebrate the New Year.

She originally didn't want to accept this invitation, but Anian was curious about Merlin and coveted the snow outside, so she kept pestering Ling Xi to go and play.

Ling Xi was so pestered that he had no choice but to agree to her request.

When going out, Ling Xi wrapped himself and Anian tightly, wearing thick fluffy cloaks. Walking in the snow, the two of them looked like round snowballs.

Haoling is as warm as spring all year round and never too cold, so Ling Xi is a little bit uncomfortable with the temperature in the Central Plains.

So, she had to wrap herself in a cloak and use her spiritual power to resist the cold.

When we arrived at Merlin, there were already many young men from aristocratic families there.

They gathered in groups of three or four, some were appreciating the plum blossoms and writing poems, some were brewing tea around the stove, some were making snowmen, and some were having snowball fights.

As soon as he entered Merlin, Anian was so happy that he almost went crazy. After saying something to Ling Xi, he ran aside to make a snowman and have a snowball fight.

This is the territory of the Xie family, so Xie Shuhui naturally has to entertain the children of various families and cannot just accompany Ling Xi and An Nian.

Ling Xi also told her to just entertain others with peace of mind.

Fortunately, Fangfeng Yiying also came, and Anian pulled Yiying to play aside.

Ling Xi was not very interested in playing in the snow, so he found a place to sit by himself.

After a while, Xinyue and Xiaoyao came together.

Ling Xi walked up to them and greeted them.

When Xinyue saw Ling Xi, a smile appeared on her face. She looked even more beautiful against the backdrop of ice and snow.

Xiaoyao was also very happy to meet Ling Xi here.

Before the three of them could say a few words, Xinyue was dragged away by the others to play snowball fight.

The ladies from the noble families present knew the identities of Ling Xi and Xiao Yao. Princess Hao Ling and Princess Xi Yan did not dare to approach them to play with them.

Ling Xi and Xiao Yao looked at each other and then laughed.

Ling Xi stretched out her hand and said with a smile: "Sister, please accompany me to take a walk and look at the plum blossoms. We won't get involved in this snowball fight."

Xiaoyao took Lingxi's hand without hesitation, and the two walked towards the plum forest hand in hand.

The snow is white, and the red plum blossoms in the snow are fragrant and refreshing.

This plum forest lives up to its name, the plum blossoms are really blooming beautifully.

The further you go inside, the more beautiful the flowers bloom.

Ling Xi held Xiao Yao's hand, and at first they could hear the laughter of the woman outside.

But suddenly, all the sounds disappeared.

Ling Xi keenly sensed that something was wrong and stopped immediately.

The surrounding scene remained the same, but both Ling Xi and Xiao Yao keenly sensed that something was wrong and stopped immediately.

Xiaoyao had been wandering around for many years and had developed an almost beast-like instinct for danger. Lingxi, on the other hand, was aware of the strangeness and aversion around him.

She reacted quickly and realized that she and Xiao Yao had entered a formation.

Xiaoyao felt uneasy, "Axi, what are we doing?"

Ling Xi looked very calm. He held Xiao Yao's hand tightly and comforted her, "It's okay. We have entered a formation."

Xiaoyao observed the surroundings carefully and soon found a clue.

The snow was completely white and there was not a single footprint, which was obviously impossible.

She looked up at the sky, but couldn't find the sun.

She observed the plum tree and found that it had no shady side or sunny side.

Xiaoyao realized that they were really trapped in the formation as Ling Xi said.

"Axi, can you break the formation?" Xiao Yao pulled Ling Xi's hand and asked nervously. The bad premonition in her heart became more and more obvious.

Whether setting up an array or breaking it, it is an extremely profound subject and it is impossible to master it without hundreds of years of study.

When she was in Yushan, she was young and the Queen Mother had not had the time to teach her. It was impossible for her to have a master to teach her afterwards, so she knew nothing about formations.

Therefore, at this moment Xiao Yao can only place her hopes on Ling Xi, hoping that she is proficient in the formation and expecting that she can break this formation.

Ling Xi looked at the barrier seal above their heads, and then observed the surroundings. After thinking for a while, he said to Xiao Yao: "I should be able to break it. Don't worry. In this wilderness, the person who can kill me has not been born yet."

What she said was outrageous, but it was true.

With her cultivation strength, there are no more than three people in the entire Wilderness who can defeat her.

These words made Xiao Yao feel relieved but also made her confused.

She and Axi, one has King Xiyan behind her, and the other has King Haoling behind her. Axi is even the young master of Haoling. If anything happens to them, the entire family of the people behind them will have no chance of survival.

No one would risk destroying their family and property to take their lives.

But she couldn't figure out who trapped them.

At this time, Xiaoyao was still thinking that maybe they had mistakenly entered someone else's formation, and the master would let them out once they found out.

Ling Xi glanced at Xiao Yao and reminded her, "Don't let your guard down. This formation is a combination of a trapping formation and a killing formation. The person who set up this formation is after our lives."

These words completely shattered Xiaoyao's relief.

Because the formation has changed.

All the plum trees in the formation began to turn. They stretched out their thick branches and quickly flew towards Ling Xi and Xiao Yao, trying to entangle them with their branches.

Ling Xi picked up Xiaoyao by the waist and moved swiftly with her steps, helping her nimbly avoid being entangled by the branches of the plum tree.

Then, while dodging, in the blink of an eye, she took out her sword from the space, the one Fang Fengbei gave her.

Come to think of it, today was the first time she used this sword.

After finding a landing spot, Ling Xi put Xiao Yao down, raised his hand and waved, setting up a barrier around her, and instructed: "Sister, stand here and don't leave. Don't walk out of this barrier."

Xiaoyao knew that her spiritual power was too low to be of much help. She just wanted to not hold Ah Xi back, so she quickly agreed: "Okay, I will stay here obediently, Ah Xi, be careful."

Ling Xi tapped her toes and flew towards the center of the formation.

All the branches of the plum trees suddenly rushed towards her.

Seeing this, Xiaoyao's heart tightened and she exclaimed, "Axi, be careful."

Ling Xi flew up, dodging and leaping among the thick branches, while swinging the sword in his hand continuously, cutting off the branches and dropping them to the ground.

After dealing with the first batch of branches, Ling Xi urged his spiritual power, raised the sword high, and swung it lightly in his hand. A cold light flashed, and the attack fell on the plum tree behind the branches.

With a sword filled with ferocious spiritual power, it instantly cut off most of the plum tree at the back. The plum tree was cut in half and collapsed with a loud bang.
