On the mountain road, a carriage stopped at a fork in the road. Zhong Shan sat in front of the carriage and looked at the caravan that Lu Jianli was in. Princess Qian You gently lifted the curtain and looked at the caravan in the distance. Then, she looked at Zhong Shan.
"Mister, are you not going to care about this group of people in the future?" Princess Qian You asked.
"We have already reached the Daguang border. My mission is complete. Thank you, Princess, for helping me," Zhong Shan said.
"It's okay. This group of people helped me a lot along the way," Princess Qian You said.
"Yes. We used to use wolves to travel on the mountain roads. Now that we are in the Daguang border, the wolves are so big. It would be too conspicuous to use wolves again. In the future, I will drive the carriage for Princess. It's just that Princess's body is priceless and you have to wander around. I'm sorry, Princess," Zhong Shan said.
"Haha, this journey with Mister has been very exciting. If not for Mister, I would have returned to the City in the Sky," Princess Qian You said.
"If not for me, Princess would not have been poisoned and would have met up with Gu Lin with Ah Da and Ah Er." Zhong Shan shook his head and sighed.
"It's good that you remember!" Princess Qian You suddenly smiled mischievously.
Seeing the sudden change in Princess Qian You's expression, Zhong Shan was slightly stunned. He shook his head and said bitterly, "How is Princess's recovery?"
"It has been two months. I am now at the Xiantian Realm. Perhaps I will reach the Golden Core Realm in a few days. The poison is constantly being expelled. It is only a matter of time. In another forty days, I will be fully recovered," Princess Qian You said.
"That's good." Zhong Shan nodded. He drove the carriage to another road.
King Julu's tent.
"Your Highness, we have reached the Daguang border. If we search further, we will reach the Daguang border. Do you want to continue?" A general knelt in front of King Julu and asked.
King Julu's eyes were bloodshot. An indescribable feeling of depression filled his chest.
They had chased them for two months, two months ah, but they had not even seen the shadow of Zhong Shan and Princess Qian You. They even had over eighty people with them, eight million soldiers! Wouldn't they be laughed at when they returned?
"Your Highness, because our army is constantly approaching, the Daguang Empire's army is also constantly gathering. What should we do now? If we continue searching … "Wu frowned and said.
"Search, continue searching. Inform the soldiers to avoid conflict with the Daguang Army. Bypass them and search," King Julu said dejectedly.
"Yes," everyone replied.
The Daguang Empire's border. Inside the Great Guang Imperial Dynasty's Viceroy Pingdong's commander's tent …
"Eight million soldiers from the Great Yu Empire have arrived at Daguang's borders. Now that we're ready, shall we meet them in battle?"
....................................
"Huh?" All the generals looked at the Governor.
.............................................
. "How can that be? Governor, is the Daguang Empire's army all idiots? Eight million soldiers. How can they search for a person all the way here? "one of the generals asked in disbelief.
"Perhaps Princess Qian You's luck is better. However, don't worry, the news I received is absolutely true. Furthermore, the Governor of the Great Yu Imperial Dynasty, Yi Yan, is currently not leaving his residence. He has been removed from his position," said the Governor.
"Governor, what should we do now?" Another general stared at the Governor and asked.
"Since she is in my territory, we naturally cannot allow King Julu to capture Princess Qian You. Pass down my orders. Search for Princess Qian You with all our might," Governor Xiao Wang said.
"Governor, what's the point of capturing Princess Qian You?" the general asked.
"According to the information we received, Princess Qian You still has forty days to recover. During this time, her strength will be weakened. Moreover, if one's consciousness touches her within a hundred feet, it will be very easy to find her. As for why we have to capture her first, haha, we will know when the time comes," Xiao Wang said.
"Yes, Governor," everyone replied.
After passing through a small town, Zhong Shan switched to two strong black horses and continued driving the carriage.
"Mister, do you still remember what the waiter said?" Princess Qian You smiled as she sat in the carriage.
"He said it out of kindness." Zhong Shan nodded.
"But he said there are ghosts ahead. He also said that there have been ghosts since his grandfather's grandfather and grandfather's grandfather's grandfather. He told us not to take this path. "Princess Qian You smiled.
"Ghosts? Besides the ghost city in Fengdu, I haven't seen any ghosts. This is a good time to take a look. "Zhong Shan smiled.
"There are ghosts. However, according to the waiter, there are very few ghosts that can exist alone for a thousand years if no one helps them," Princess Qian You said.
"Oh, the Princess has seen ghosts before?" Zhong Shan was puzzled.
"I have, but they can't exist in this world for too long. That's because ghosts and humans are two different worlds. The world's Yang energy is too strong. Ghosts won't be able to persist for too long before they weaken and scatter. Unless there is a specialized cultivator who instills them with Yin energy every day," Princess Qian You said.
"So, there really are ghosts in this world." Zhong Shan frowned and pondered.
"That's right. If we return to the capital in the future, I'll bring you to Tian Lao's place. He has several ghost servants." Princess Qian You smiled.
"Okay. Then I'll have to thank the Princess." Zhong Shan nodded.
"There's no need to be so polite between me and Mister," Princess Qian You said.
"How is the Princess's recovery?" Zhong Shan asked again.
"Oh, peak Xiantian strength. I should be able to break through to Core Formation in two days." Princess Qian You thought for a moment.
"Once the Princess reaches Core Formation, we'll say goodbye to the carriage." Zhong Shan said.
"Okay." Princess Qian You nodded.
…
…
…
Along the way, the two of them constantly chatted. However, the two of them seemed to avoid talking about sensitive topics.
"Mister, there's a huge miasma forest in front of us!" Princess Qian You suddenly pointed at a dense forest in the distance.
As soon as Princess Qian You finished speaking, Zhong Shan's eyes widened. His heart tightened and he let go of the reins. Turning to Princess Qian You, he said, "Princess, give me your hand!"
Princess Qian You was a bit confused, but she still extended her hand.
Zhong Shan grabbed Princess Qian You and pulled her into his embrace. Picking her up, he rushed towards a nearby miasma forest.
When Princess Qian You extended her right hand, she had already guessed what was going on. Her face reddened and she was about to withdraw her hand when it was caught by Zhong Shan. In the next instant, she fell into Zhong Shan's embrace.
She instinctively wanted to struggle, but she calmed down. Seeing Zhong Shan so flustered, it was clear that danger was approaching. Princess Qian You was also someone who understood the big picture. Thus, she obediently allowed Zhong Shan to carry her. Lying in Zhong Shan's embrace, she listened to his powerful heartbeat.
"Badump, badump, badump …"
Gradually, Princess Qian You felt her heartbeat synchronize with Zhong Shan's heartbeat. Their heartbeats seemed to resonate, and Princess Qian You could hear them clearly. The same heartbeat? Princess Qian You's face reddened.
In the blink of an eye, Zhong Shan had carried Princess Qian You into the miasma forest. As for the empty carriage, he had no time to care about it now.
Although the two of them were not afraid in the dark forest, Zhong Shan still quickly found a very hidden place. He quickly inserted the God Shrouding Fog Array into the ground to prevent spiritual consciousness from spying on them.
Although Princess Qian You's spiritual consciousness could be corrupted within ten zhang of her, the God Shrouding Fog Array was larger and could completely hide her.
"Sir, did you discover something?" Princess Qian You asked.
"Yes, quiet!" Zhong Shan frowned.
Because the red luan and pink lotus on Zhong Shan's forehead was constantly blue. Danger, extreme danger. What danger was it? What was Zhong Shan supposed to do? Escape. He had thought of all sorts of directions and methods, but the red luan and pink lotus were still blue. This meant that it was impossible.
An inauspicious omen!
Although it was an inauspicious omen, Zhong Shan knew that it was not impossible to resolve. It was just like how he could not give up on an auspicious omen. Just like when he chased after the black jade talisman, it was an auspicious omen. If Zhong Shan had given up chasing after it, it could have resolved the auspicious omen. But generally speaking, inauspicious omens were harder to resolve than auspicious omens. Much harder.
Thus, Zhong Shan was on full alert. He could not make the slightest mistake. Next, he would have to focus all his attention on facing the inauspicious omen. He hoped that he could resolve it. Escape? Forget it. It was better to stay here and deal with any changes.
Zhong Shan waited with rapt attention. Princess Qian You stared at Zhong Shan curiously. The more she looked at Zhong Shan, the more mysterious he was. On Heavenly Wolf Island, he was only at the Xiantian realm. In other words, Zhong Shan was at most 200 years old. How many secrets did this' young 'Zhong Shan have? Why was it that the more she looked at him, the more she saw? Pulling aside one layer and then another layer?
Princess Qian You could not understand. And for a smart woman like Princess Qian You, the more she did not understand, the more curious she became. It was as if a cat was scratching at her heart, wanting to tear away Zhong Shan's' clothes' layer by layer until she saw the most 'naked' underneath.
Indeed, just as Zhong Shan was concentrating, a yellow light flew over from the horizon. Because there was no one driving the carriage from before, the horses had stopped by the roadside to graze peacefully. The yellow light flew not far from the carriage.
