For the rest of the journey, everyone was filled with worry and fear. Cui You's horse also sped up. Xu An could vaguely hear the soft moans coming from within the carriage. Clearly, the carriage was moving too fast for Fan Nianwang.
"Master Cui, can you slow down a bit?" Xu An shouted. Fan Nianwang's body couldn't take it anymore. Furthermore, with the carriage moving so fast, it was easy for accidents to happen. Xu An's eyes were filled with pain and pity. Cui You raised his hand and everyone slowly came to a stop.
"Mr. Xu, we just finished killing the Black Mountain Stronghold's people. If we slow down, I'm afraid we will encounter more accidents." Cui You said apologetically. He knew that such a fast speed was too much for a girl like Fan Nianwang. However, if they stayed here for even a second longer, it would be more dangerous for them.
"Uncle Xu, it's fine. Master Cui, I'll have to trouble you." Fan Nianwang's voice came from within the carriage. She knew that she couldn't gamble with everyone's lives because of her.
"Does Miss Fan know how to ride?" Nie Li suddenly asked. Since that was the case, why couldn't he let her ride a horse? "I learned a little from my mother when I was young," Fan Nianwang replied.
"Then I'll give my horse to Miss Fan and give up on the carriage." Just as Nie Li finished speaking, Xu An was the first to object. How could a girl ride a horse so openly? It was too immoral.
"Uncle Xu, it's fine. This way, everyone won't be delayed because of me." After Fan Nianwang finished speaking, she got out of the carriage and looked up at Nie Li. Nie Li hurriedly got off the horse. Fan Nianwang immediately got on the horse. Because another girl was riding on him, Zhao Ye showed an expression of resistance and dissatisfaction. His body began to sway.
Nie Li lightly shouted and Zhao Ye immediately calmed down. However, Fan Nianwang's expression didn't change at all. She didn't show any fear. This was different from her usual decisiveness and straightforwardness, which made Nie Li a little dumbfounded.
Previously, she gave off the feeling of a well-bred girl with a trace of majesty. However, she still had the shyness and shyness of an unmarried girl. However, when she got on the horse, she had the aura of a woman who wasn't inferior to men.
Nie Li whispered a few words into Zhao Ye's ear, then walked to the side of the carriage. Zhao Ye looked at Nie Li and snorted a few times. Nie Li used his knife to cut the ropes on the carriage and sat on the horse's back.
The killing intent from his body pressed down on the horse, causing it to kneel on the ground. It turned around and looked at Nie Li with a pleading look in its eyes. Nie Li withdrew his aura and squeezed the horse's belly.
When Cui You saw that the matter was resolved, he was naturally very happy. He took the lead and walked at the front. Everyone followed him. Zhao Ye's speed was not very fast. He maintained a moderate pace and wrapped Fan Nian in everyone's protection.
Fan Nianwang also looked at Nie Li, who was at the back. Because of the horses, he and Little Head Mo's Flowery were barely able to keep up. Fan Nianwang knew that the reason Zhao Ye was so obedient was because of Nie Li. Zhao Ye looked like a fine horse, and yet it was so slow. Nie Li must have whispered something into its ear. It really was a good horse.
Fan Nianwang couldn't help but stroke Zhao Ye's mane. Zhao Ye snorted in response. The sun above their heads shone for a while, then disappeared. The tall and narrow valley completely blocked the sunlight. Everyone could only observe the time and the changes in the weather by looking at the blue sky above their heads.
The sky darkened bit by bit. The blue sky had a touch of grey. Everyone knew that night was coming. "Everyone, hold on. We're almost out of the valley." Cui You saw the fatigue in everyone's eyes. After running around for a day, everyone was tired, especially Fan Nianwang. She was originally a weak woman. Now that she had been running for a day, her eyebrows were knitted together and she looked lifeless.
Looking at the sky and land in the distance, everyone was excited. They knew that once they stepped out of the valley, they would reach heaven. That was the joy of living.
The open sky and land were reflected in everyone's eyes. The sun had not completely set yet, and there was still a bit of yellow in the sky. Nie Li and Mo Xiaotou were the last to step out of the Black Valley. When they left the valley, the two of them let out a sigh of relief.
The sense of danger also disappeared. The two of them looked back at the Black Valley at the same time. The entrance of the valley gradually narrowed, as if there was only a line. But even so, they seemed to have seen a person.
A man in a black robe stood at the entrance of the valley, watching them leave. When the Black Valley turned into a black line, Nie Li stopped looking. He didn't know if that person was still there. After all, the black robe and the Black Valley had already merged together.
"Let's go. Don't look anymore. It should be fine. If he wanted to make a move, he wouldn't have held back for so long, "Mo Xiaotou advised. Not to mention Nie Li, he also saw that person. But why didn't he make a move? It was worth thinking about.
"Tonight, we'll rest at the front gate. We should be able to reach the Song Capital by noon tomorrow." Cui You brought everyone to the side of the woods. Everyone settled down the horses and began to divide the work. They patrolled, investigated, and made a fire to cook.
Even after walking out of the Dark Valley, no one dared to slack off. But the biggest stone in everyone's heart had been removed. Everyone was very happy. They sat by the fire, ate the food they hunted, and began to talk about everything under the sun.
Those smiling faces were not there when they entered the valley. Last night, their faces were full of sadness. But today, they were all smiling. Sure enough, death really has such a great charm that it can make a person so changeable.
"Thank you for this trip." After a while, Cui You brought the roasted food to Nie Li and the others. Because the four of them disdained to be with others, they naturally sat on the side and ate the dry food they prepared.
"It's nothing. We didn't do anything." Nie Li complimented. Liu Zhong looked at the food in Cui You's hand and secretly swallowed his saliva. He had been eating dry food for the past few days and had long wanted to try it. But since Nie Li didn't say anything, he didn't dare to take the initiative to take it.
"Maybe it's the four of you who brought good luck." Cui You said with a smile. In the valley, he also noticed that someone was eyeing them, but they didn't make a move. Fortunately, they were lucky.
"Well, eat this food and rest early. We still have to hurry tomorrow morning." Cui You didn't give Nie Li a chance to speak. He directly handed the food in his hand to Liu Zhong and then left.
Liu Zhong looked at the food in his hand and was suddenly at a loss. He couldn't take it. Nie Li didn't say he wanted it, but he took it. But this was forced by Cui You. He couldn't not take it. Looking at the delicious roasted meat, Liu Zhong's stomach failed to live up to his expectations.
"Eat it. I've been eating dry food for the past few days. I also want to change my taste." Nie Li took one, broke it in half and gave it to Mo Xiaotou. Liu Zhong also gave half to Zheng Ming. The four of them ate. Although the roasted meat was very fragrant, it could be seen from Liu Zhong's mouth that he kept eating.
But Nie Li ate it dully. He was still thinking about what happened this afternoon. Who was that person? "Eat it quickly! Rest early. Don't think about those things. "Mo Xiaotou poked Nie Li with her finger, and the latter came back to his senses.
After eating, the four of them wrapped themselves in clothes and fell asleep together. They were far away from the fire, so they naturally couldn't feel any heat. They blended into the darkness, quiet and leisurely. But the other faces beside the fire each had their own merits.
"Miss Fan, why are you going to the Song Capital this time?" Gao Qingyun looked at Fan Nianwang without blinking and kept handing food to Fan Nianwang. She looked as if she couldn't wait to hang her eyes on Fan Nianwang.
"I'm going to visit my family." Fan Nianwang didn't have any reaction to Gao Qingyun's behavior. She didn't feel happy. She had seen too many people like this! Was she disgusted? She didn't. She had seen too many of these things.
Fan Nianxiang took Gao Qingyun's food and put it aside. Only Xu An and Gao Qingyun knew what she was going to do in the Song Capital. "You're right.
"If that's the case, then I will definitely send Miss Fan there safely." Gao Qingyun saw Fan Nianwang take the food she had roasted, and countless thoughts surged in her mind. She couldn't help but pat her chest and make a solemn vow.
The others didn't say anything when they saw Gao Qingyun's reaction. However, there was nothing they could do about it. After all, Gao Qingyun was more handsome and stronger than them. Looking around, only Little Head Mo and Nie Li were better than Gao Qingyun.
But these two people didn't seem to be interested in women. Except for some necessary words, they didn't seem to communicate with Fan Nianwang. Now, they were sleeping together, especially Mo Xiaotou, who was even snoring softly.
Fan Nianwang also heard Mo Xiaotou's snoring. The corners of her mouth rose slightly. She looked at the four people. Liu Zhong was lying on the ground, and Zheng Ming was lying on Liu Zhong's fleshy body. Looking at his drooling appearance, she knew it must be very comfortable.
Mo Xiaotou, on the other hand, was leaning against the tree. He casually found a position and slept very soundly. On the contrary, Nie Li was the most different. His usual cold face and arrogant temperament made people feel that he was a difficult person to get along with. Therefore, there were very few people who observed him. He leaned against the tree, but his legs were retracted and crossed in front of his chest. The black robe wrapped around his body.
He slightly nodded. His perfect facial features were still faintly visible in the dark. His brows were tightly knitted together as he slept. Looking at his posture, his hands were also crossed in front of his chest. He seemed to be very cold.
Fan Nianwang took out a white robe from her luggage. "Miss Fan, what's wrong?" Gao Qingyun saw Fan Nianwang take out the robe and thought that she felt cold. But thinking about it, it wasn't very cold beside the fire.
"Young Hero Nie seems to be a little uncomfortable." Fan Nianwang finished speaking and walked towards Nie Li with the robe.
"Miss Fan is simply overthinking. He is an Acquired Realm warrior. How can he be sick?" Gao Qingyun felt a little uncomfortable. Looking at Nie Li, she felt even more disgusted. The seed of jealousy quietly sprouted.
Fan Nianwang didn't stop because of Gao Qingyun's words. "Miss, I'll go over. After all, you are not suitable." Xu An looked at Fan Nianwang. It was indeed a little unsightly to put on a robe for a man. Therefore, Fan Nianwang handed the robe to Xu An and took Fan Nianwang's white robe. Walking to Nie Li, she wanted to put it on Nie Li.
* Swish * A white blade flashed and the white robe in Xu An's hand was split into two.
A wound also appeared on Xu An's chest. Everything happened too quickly.
Fan Nianwang widened her eyes and looked at it in disbelief. If it was her, would she have been dismembered by this blade?
Xu An looked at Nie Li. His eyes were wide open, filled with fear, hatred, uneasiness, and madness.
Those eyes were like the devil's, allowing people to see the depths of hell and nightmares.
