Feng Ming smirked and said, "No one ever thought that the Crown Prince of the Great Yue Kingdom would lie. It's just... you might not know how skilled our people are at disguise when searching for so...Seeing the Fourth Prince leading his troops rushing over, Chen Pingqing's heart instantly tensed up again.

This Fourth Prince is either coming to question him about opening the city gates and letting the North Frontier Princess leave, or his purpose is the same as the North Frontier Princess... to leave the city.

As he had expected, Mo Yunze rushed over. Before he could even bow, Mo Yunze blurted out, "The imperial decree is here, open the city gate quickly!"

Upon hearing the words "Imperial Edict," Chen Pinqing immediately knelt down on one knee.

Mo Yunze didn't want to waste time here, so he directly threw the imperial decree in his hand to Chen Pinqing.

Chen Pinqing hastily opened the imperial edict. Upon reading its contents, he quickly ordered the soldiers to open the city gates.

Mo Yunze didn't say a word, and led a large force out of the city.

After the city gate was closed again, one of the subordinates leaned in and whispered to Chen Pinqing, "General, what exactly happened tonight Why were the Princess of Beijiang and the Fourth Prince so anxious to leave the city"

It's understandable that the soldiers guarding the city would be curious, but Chen Pingqing himself was also very interested. However, Chen Pingqing has always been cautious, and this is a particularly sensitive time. When it comes to royal affairs, the less he knows, the better.

The more you know, the worse it gets.

The soldier, not receiving a reply, couldn't help but ask again, "General, I think I saw the King of Beijiang leaving the city today. He was in such a hurry that I wasn't sure if it was really him. With the Princess of Beijiang and the Fourth Prince rushing out like that, could it be related to the King of Beijiang Could something have...happened to him"

"!!!"

Seeing this subordinate actually dared to discuss the matters of Prince Beijiang and Fourth Prince, Chen Pinqing glared at him coldly and said, "You dare to discuss the affairs of the two princes Are you tired of living"

"!"

The soldier was immediately terrified, his body trembling. He shook his head frantically and said, "No...no, I wouldn't dare! My subordinate wouldn't dare!"

After that, the soldier quickly turned and ran back to his post.

Chen Pinqing didn't know what he was thinking about. He stood there in thought for a moment, then raised his eyes to look at the soldiers gathered tonight. He spoke to them solemnly and earnestly:

"What you see tonight, is all a secret. If anyone wants to die, they can speak out. But if you want your whole family spared, then shut your mouths tight!"

Chen Pinqing's words silenced the crowd. They pretended they hadn't seen or heard anything that night.

On the other side, An Xuetang and Fengming left in a hurry, a group of people rushing directly to Guangming Village.

Feng Ming chased after An Xue Tang, and to ease her tension, he said, "A Tang, your manner today is unlike you."

An Xuetang shouted, "Giddy-up!" and then turned her head to glance at him, "What do you mean by that, brother"

"If the person you know were to hear that Mo Yun Jing was in trouble, I'm sure they would want me to use my light kung fu to take them to Guangming Village as quickly as possible. They wouldn't be here today leading a large group of people."

Hearing Feng Ming say this, An Xue Tang pursed her lips, "I'd like to rush over to find A Jing as soon as possible, but after my encounter with the mysterious person today, I deeply understand a truth: there are heavens beyond heavens, and people beyond people. What can someone who doesn't have light kung fu or inner strength do against such masters"

Feng Ming was taken aback, completely unprepared for An Xuetang, who had always been brimming with confidence, to utter such disheartening remarks. This was truly out of character for her.

Before he could speak and tell her not to belittle herself so, An Xuetang spoke first, "We still don't know the specifics about Guangming Village, and I have no idea if Ajing is in danger. If something happened to me now, it would only add to your worries."

"So I thought about it carefully. No matter how much I want to find Ajing right now, no matter how much I want to hear from him, I still need to follow you all. This is the safest and best way for everyone."

Feng Ming listened to An Xue Tang's sensible words, his brows furrowed slightly, but a touch of sadness arose in his heart.

The more she behaved this way, the more it showed that she had experienced more danger, forcing her to become more sensible.

Thinking of this, Feng Ming frowned, “A Tang, you’ve changed.”

But such a change would only highlight his and Mo Yunjing's incompetence. It was because they were incapable of protecting her constantly that she gradually underwent such changes.

Hearing Feng Ming say that she had changed, An Xue Tang smiled, "Brother, everyone changes. Besides, if I don't force myself to transform 72 times, who will take on those 81 hardships for me After all, you and Ajing can't be by my side every moment."

"...."

Faced with her words, Feng Ming was speechless.

The rest of the journey was spent in silence.

And Han Yun had been following the two of them all along. They hadn't spoken in a way that tried to hide their words from anyone, so Han Yun heard everything they said.

As for An Xuetang's transformation, Han Yun didn't have much of a reaction. After all, he wasn't very familiar with An Xuetang before.

But her words about 72 transformations and 81 difficulties struck a deep chord in his heart.

He had heard these words before, from the one he loved most. Sadly, in the end, she couldn't escape her fate.

So now he also understands An Xuetang's feelings very well, that kind of urgent desire to find someone and do everything to protect him.

Looking at An Xue Tang's back, Han Yun seemed to understand instantly why Mo Yun Jing doted on her so much.

An Xue Tang... she deserves... she is worthy of Mo Yun Jing's unconditional love.

An Xuetang and her group rode on rare blood bay steeds. Combined with their skilled horseback riding techniques, they were incredibly fast. So, it didn't take long for them to arrive at their destination: Guangming Village.

The village of Guangming was surrounded by hills on all sides. It was difficult to enter on horseback.

Yun Si then glanced at An Xue Tang, "Your Highness, I'll go scout ahead first. The situation below is unclear, please do not go down directly."

An Xuetang hesitated for a moment, just as Yun Si said, she didn't know the specifics of the situation below. If there was danger, Yun Si going down alone would be like sending himself to his death.

Seeing An Xuetang's hesitation, Han Yun on the side immediately volunteered, "Yun Si, I'll go with you."

After that, he looked at An Xuetang, whose expression was a little surprised, and said, "Han's light kung fu is pretty good. Following Yun Si down together, nothing will happen. Northern Border Princess, please don't worry."

An Xuetang's eyes showed him a hint of gratitude, "Thank you."

"Han merely came to have some fun out of boredom. Don't be so polite."

Han Yun finished speaking, and immediately looked at Yun Si, "Let's go."

Yun Si let out a hum, bowed to An Xue Tang, and then left with Han Yun.

Watching their figures gradually fade into the darkness, An Xue Tang's hands clenched tighter and tighter.

The village of Guangming was brightly lit, but from their vantage point, there was an eerie silence within.

What happened in this village Is her Ah Jing insidefe.He was unwilling, unwilling to die here just like this, for he…he was the most beloved son of his father. From when had things become so passive for himZhao Li couldn't figure out what had led him...
