She merely sent her divine sense into the space and couldn't flip through the book. However, the moment she thought of looking at it, the book automatically opened.
Like a memorial to the emperor, the book's content automatically entered her mind as Lu Qing Wan browsed through it.
Lu Qing Wan then understood that formations and the Qimen Dunjia she had just disdained originally shared the same source.
A slight pain in her fingertip, Lu Qing Wan's divine sense returned to the outside, only to see Feng Xi Wu already arranging the chess pieces.
Lu Qing Wan asked in surprise, "You knew how to break this formation long ago?"
Feng Xi Wu smiled without answering, merely handing her the chess pieces.
Lu Qing Wan chuckled and, taking the pieces, walked to the pit. She aimed at the pit's position and dropped the black and white chess pieces into it one by one.
Immediately after, she pointed the Eight Trigrams Mirror towards the direction of Da Qin, looked up at the sky, and said, "Let's go, move further away. We just need to wait half an hour."
The followers were all bewildered, but Feng Xi Wu raised an eyebrow and looked at her with great admiration.
Li Qing and the others were full of questions, as curious as cats' claws, but since their two masters weren't acting, they didn't dare to speak much.
After obediently waiting for half an hour, everyone was astonished to see the mist surrounding the pit gradually dissipate.
Hidden among the trees, a thorny path was faintly visible. It wasn't smooth, but along that path, the majestic city walls of Da Qin could be seen in the distance.
"This is too magical!"
Li Yang exclaimed in amazement, "Isn't the Consort amazing?"
Lu Qing Wan smiled faintly and said, "Immediately send people to clear this path and announce to all merchants that from now on, goods traveling between the north and south can use this route."
"As you command!"
Li Jin, already seeing the silver he was owed beckoning him, responded enthusiastically.
On the way back to the city, Lu Qing Wan asked the question she had been wanting to ask, "You actually knew how to break this formation, didn't you?"
Feng Xi Wu chuckled, "What makes you say that?"
"Do you take me for a fool?"
Lu Qing Wan pouted at him, "I just learned how to break it. I only just found out that the formation needs chess pieces made of pitch-black wood and white marble to break it, but you had them prepared long ago.
Unless you knew the method to break it beforehand, was it just a coincidence?"
"The Consort is as intelligent as ice and snow; indeed, nothing can escape your notice."
Feng Xi Wu flattered Lu Qing Wan obsequiously.
Lu Qing Wan snorted and asked him with a hint of guilt, "You clearly knew how to break the formation long ago, yet you didn't break it.
Did you perhaps not intend to break the formation and open that passage for now?"
Breaking the formation felt good for a moment, but after it was done, she belatedly realized that if Feng Xi Wu had other plans, her active participation in breaking it might have ruined them.
"It wasn't that I didn't want to break it, but I was waiting for you to do it."
Feng Xi Wu sighed, "I was very happy to be able to help you."
When Lu Qing Wan learned蛊毒 (gu du, venomous poison), she unlocked the skill of Beast Language.
When she learned internal energy, she unlocked Wood Elemental Spiritual Power.
When she learned formations, what new ability would she unlock? Feng Xi Wu didn't know, but he knew that this would help Lu Qing Wan become stronger.
Lu Qing Wan took a deep breath and planted a wet kiss on Feng Xi Wu's face, "You are truly my precious treasure!
I love you so much!"
Feng Xi Wu blushed and kissed her back, "I love you the most too~"
The scent of their excessive affection wafted far and wide, causing Li Qing and the others to retreat further, wishing they could disappear on the spot.
Lu Qing Wan was unaware of how disgusted everyone behind them was. She was filled with anticipation, wondering what the reward from the Space Laboratory would be this time.
To be fair, the rewards from the Space Laboratory had never disappointed her, so Lu Qing Wan was always filled with anticipation for each one.
However, when she saw people running around naked in the street through the tightly shut city gates, she was completely stunned.
Her eyes stung so much she couldn't open them. Turning her head, she saw that Feng Xi Wu beside her was also naked.
Lu Qing Wan squeezed her eyes shut fiercely and roared in her mind, "Da Bai, get out here!"
Da Bai had been forgotten in the Cloud Forest and hadn't returned, so it naturally couldn't appear.
However, she had already seen the large characters on the usage rules of the Xuanyuan Space Laboratory: "Congratulations, Master, on unlocking the Formation skill. The Xuanyuan Space Laboratory rewards you with the Perspective skill."
"Fortunately, I grew eyes for perspective myself, rather than Tianxuan City suddenly developing a penchant for streaking overnight."
Lu Qing Wan patted her chest, trying to comfort herself.
After Feng Xi Wu learned about the existence of the Space Laboratory, he also became familiar with its various functions.
Hearing Lu Qing Wan patting her chest with lingering fear and comforting herself, he understood, "The new skill is Perspective?"
At that time, they were both in Feng Xi Wu's private carriage, which had excellent soundproofing, so they didn't have to worry about being overheard.
Lu Qing Wan blinked for a moment before nodding, tearfully asking for comfort, "I just unexpectedly saw the entire street naked, you have no idea how much it hurt my eyes.
Fortunately, I have you to help me wash my eyes, woo woo..."
She buried her face in Feng Xi Wu's arms, pretending to cry. He, however, acutely caught the key point, "Naked?
Whose did you see?"
"I don't know who all, there were so many, men and women, all streaking, it was terrifying!"
Lu Qing Wan had indeed been quite shocked, her eyes still smarting.
Feng Xi Wu took a deep breath, "Since the Space Laboratory rewarded you with a skill, it wouldn't have made you see everything, both what you should and shouldn't see, forever, would it?
Think of a way, is there something you overlooked?"
Lu Qing Wan nodded vigorously, "I know, it's just inconvenient. Hurry and take me back, I'll go learn it right away."
Opening her eyes to see various naked bodies, who could stand it?
Seeing that Lu Qing Wan's eyes were still closed, Feng Xi Wu suddenly had a mischievous grin, "You just said you also used your perspective eyes on me?"
Lu Qing Wan opened one eye, "I did, is there a problem?"
"No problem. Consort can look however she likes, but you don't need to bother using your perspective eyes to look at me."
Feng Xi Wu smiled dotingly, "I'll undress for you to see. It's not too late for me to get dressed until you've forgotten the naked bodies of those other men."
Lu Qing Wan: ...
This day had truly been exceptionally eventful!
After delaying for a day in Tianxuan City, Lu Qing Wan didn't want to attract any more trouble and quickly caught up with the main group, wasting no more time.
After traveling for two months, the caravan finally reached Zhongzhou.
Lu Qing Wan couldn't see the scene outside from the carriage, but she could hear the noise from the streets.
"Whose wedding is this? The procession is so grand!"
"You don't even know? The Prince of Qin, who was acknowledged three months ago, specifically requested to marry the daughter of a minister from a small southern country.
So, the Crown Prince personally sent a bridal escort. How could the procession be small?"
"She's just a minister's daughter from a small southern country, why the need for such fanfare?"
