"Just what is going on with this person?"
Walking down from the carriage, Chen Heng thought back to what had just happened and frowned.
In the impression of the predecessor, although Song Qi was a prince, he had no opinions of his own. Moreover, he was not favored among the many sons of the current King of Qi.
Normally, even exchanging a few words with Chen Heng would make him feel afraid.
However, he had been completely different today. Not only had he said so much, but he had also remained calm the entire time. Not only did he know his current situation, but he had also immediately acted and taken out a precious cultivation technique to rope Chen Heng in.
From his current actions, Chen Heng could not imagine what kind of person he was.
"An Immortal's disciple?"
Thinking back to what Song Qi had said, Chen Heng could not help but frown.
Just then, Song Qi had said that he was an Immortal's disciple and had been taught by an Immortal for a period of time. As such, he knew a cultivation technique.
The transmission just then had been caused by a magic technique.
It was just that Chen Heng felt that something was off.
If he really was an Immortal's disciple, why had he become like this?
Since he was the disciple of an Immortal, then where was the Immortal Master that he spoke of when he was in danger?
Moreover, a few days ago, he had fainted because of a few ordinary bandits …
Various thoughts flashed through Chen Heng's mind, causing him to frown.
From how he saw it, Song Qi was trying to put on a tiger's skin so that others would not dare to look down on him.
It was just that Song Qi did have evidence.
That transmission just then was one of them. Moreover, Song Qi had said that if Chen Heng had any problems with the Foundation Building Technique, he could ask him.
"Just what is this …"
Chen Heng's expression was calm, but he felt incredibly confused.
Within the carriage, Song Qi was not feeling calm either.
"Whether this matter succeeds or fails will depend on tonight …"
Within the carriage, Song Qi lightly sighed, "If things are like in my previous life, where I was captured and tortured before being released, what would be the point of living again …"
Indeed, the current Song Qi was not the Song Qi of the past.
At this moment, he was a completely different person, possessing the memories of the next few decades.
In Song Qi's memory, tonight, the people of the Northern Nine Bandits would make a move and find them directly under the guidance of the traitor.
After a fierce battle, he was captured and brought before the Northern Nine Bandits. He was imprisoned for fifteen years before he found a chance to escape.
For fifteen years, he had been tormented at the hands of the Northern Reaches Nine Bandits. Finally, he was able to leave and start anew.
By that time, the entire Great Qi Kingdom had already been destroyed. He had also found the truth of what had happened in the ruins of the Great Qi Kingdom.
It was not without reason that the Northern Nine Bandits attacked him. The Qi Empress had secretly instructed them to do so.
As for the reason behind this, Song Qi had no idea.
All he knew was that if he didn't do something, after tonight he would be a prisoner, living the life of a prisoner.
And this time, he might not be lucky enough to survive fifteen years and leave after that.
Therefore, he had to change the situation.
In this situation, his only hope was Commander Yu.
Commander Yu came from the prestigious Chen clan and was a descendant of the Chen clan. He was an outstanding figure in his generation.
In Song Qi's impression, Commander Yu had survived the ambush tonight and escaped by a fluke.
In the next few decades, Commander Yu had encountered some fortuitous opportunities and had become a famous figure.
As long as he was willing to protect him, with Song Qi's plans, perhaps he would be able to escape from this danger.
As long as he could leave this place, with Song Qi's understanding of the future, he would be able to quickly regain his cultivation and obtain many fortuitous opportunities.
When that time came, he would be able to soar into the sky and do what he wanted.
"In my last life, when I was free, Great Qi Kingdom had already perished, but in this life …"
Thinking about the Empress of Great Qi who had caused him to be imprisoned for fifteen years, a savage look appeared in Song Qi's eyes.
As he thought to himself, he heard footsteps coming from outside.
"Your Majesty."
Chen Heng's voice sounded out, "It's almost dark.
"Get ready, it's time to rest."
Chen Heng's voice sounded out, sounding quite serious.
Song Qi's heart stirred and he quickly understood what Chen Heng meant.
At night, everyone else had already gone to sleep.
A bonfire was still burning, and in front of it, Chen Heng sat there with a calm expression.
The night gradually darkened, and it seemed very gloomy.
After a while, Chen Heng silently got up and looked at the carriage.
Deep into the night, the sound of hooves could be heard from all directions.
An inexplicable battle cry came from the front, one after another.
In the distance, hearing the sounds, Chen Heng came back to his senses and looked into the distance.
"It's begun."
His expression was serious as he spoke.
Beside him, Song Qi also stood there with a serious expression as he looked into the distance.
Unbeknownst to the others, they had left the camp and arrived here.
"Looks like it's as Your Majesty said; those people have come."
Chen Heng sighed, "It's a pity …"
"What's a pity?"
Song Qi gazed into the distance. His face was a little blurry in the dark night.
"There are some innocent people, but we've given up on them …"
Chen Heng's expression was calm as he spoke.
There were most likely enemy spies in that group, but even someone like Song Qi, who had gone through rebirth, did not know who they were.
Adding on the fact that they were fleeing, each additional person meant more pressure.
As such, they decided to abandon everyone else and leave by themselves.
Among the group of people they had left behind, there were definitely many spies of the enemy, but there were also some who were innocent people who knew nothing at all.
It was easy to imagine the outcome of that group of people.
"There was nothing we could do …"
Song Qi also sighed, "Even if we were still there, their outcome would most likely not change …"
From what Song Qi remembered, this attack had been personally led by one of the Northern Nine Bandits, a martial artist who had reached Great Accomplishment in Martial Illumination.
Even if they had stayed behind, they would not have been a match for such a martial artist.
In fact, according to the original history, when faced with the attack of such a martial artist, only Chen Yu, the future Enlightened Master, would be able to escape. As for the others, including Song Qi himself, they were all captured by the other party without any room to resist.
"Let's go."
After looking around for a while, Song Qi looked at Chen Heng, "We're only temporarily safe. After a while, they'll catch up sooner or later."
Even if there were no spies, that did not mean they were completely safe.
At the very least, there were many ways to search in this world.
Right now, they were far from safe.
