The vast expanse of wilderness is deserted. More than a dozen horses galloped, raising smoke and dust all over the sky.

Si Tianming was dead, and the two Xuanjing Saints sent by the prince had also been killed. Qian Guo could no longer draw a trump card that could confront Ye Qingchen head-on.

The avenue is open, and Nangong Feixue no longer needs to stay in the carriage and pretend to be sick. Entering Jinzhou, the carriage was disposed of cheaply. Everyone took to the road on horseback, traveling many times faster than before.

Traveling during the day and staying in the hotel at night, hurrying and slowing down, we arrived at Quzhou, which borders Chu State.

When Shi Yingchun lived in the capital, he never stopped practicing. On the way to Chu State, Ye Qingchen gave her two more demon spirit bottles, which directly raised her cultivation level to the late stage of Qi refining.

The cavalry climbed up a small mound. Nan Muchun, who was leading the team, stopped and reported to Nangong Feixue: "Princess, it's already noon. There are no cities to hit the top all the way to Linqu Pass in Da Chu. Why don't we stay here?" Take a rest and eat some solid food.”

"Okay!" Nangong Feixue agreed and jumped off the horse.

The Chu people took out the dry food they carried on their horses and shared it with everyone.

The climate in the south is much warmer than that in the north of Qian Country. Coupled with the rush all the way, there were beads of sweat on everyone's forehead.

The sweat drops combined with the wind and sand in front of me, forming gray-black stains.

As soon as he got off the horse, Shi Yingchun stepped forward with a smile and sat down against Ye Qingchen.

"Are you tired?" Ye Qingchen asked with concern.

"Not tired!" Shi Yingchun smiled sweetly.

Ye Qingchen smiled and said: "After riding a horse for so long, does your butt hurt from sitting? I'll rub it for you."

"Ah, no!" Shi Yingchun screamed and dodged with a smile.

Not far away, Nangong Feixue watched the two of them flirting with each other, with envy, jealousy and hatred on his face.

She tore the dry biscuit hard, as if she had a deep hatred for that biscuit.

Ever since she heard Bai Lingyao's name from Nan Peijue that day, she never paid attention to Ye Qingchen again. Just like what Shi Yingchun said, jealousy was only part of the equation. It was more because all my worries were in vain, so I felt very unhappy.

Ye Qingchen knew that Nangong Feixue's anger meant that she cared about this matter. So he did not hesitate to put down his posture and shamelessly try to please, but every time he came back disappointed.

Nangong Feiyan handed over a pot of water and called out: "Sister Huang!"

"Asshole!" Nangong Feixue said bitterly, her eyes never leaving Ye Qingchen's direction.

Then he reacted. He hurriedly apologized to his sister: "Feiyan, I...I didn't mean you."

Nangong Feiyan smiled and gave her a meaningful look.

Ye Qingchen swaggered forward and said with a smile: "Wow, you still have water to drink, why don't I, sir?"

He was obviously going for Nangong Feixue, and the other Chu people wisely took the water and walked away.

Nan Peijue smiled obsequiously and handed over a pot of water: "Brother Chen, drink water."

Ye Qingchen was stunned, kicked him on the butt and cursed: "Get out!"

Nan Peijue rubbed his butt and muttered in confusion: "You asked for the water yourself. I kindly gave it to you. Why did you kick me?"

Everyone else laughed.

Nangong Feixue couldn't help but laugh. She turned around and saw Ye Qingchen looking at her, and stopped smiling. He snorted coldly, turned his head, took a big bite of the dry biscuit, and chewed it hard.

Ye Qingchen smiled and said: "Eat slowly, don't choke."

"Do you want to take care of it?" Nangong Feixue said angrily.

"You're putting your hot face on your cold ass!" Ye Qingchen smiled awkwardly, "Since you don't want me to care, there's no need for me to follow you shamelessly."

After saying that, he turned to Shi Yingchun and said: "Yingchun, Peijue, let's go back to the capital to enjoy our happiness!"

"Master Ye!" Shi Yingchun looked at him in embarrassment.

Nangong Feiyu hurriedly stepped forward to stop him and said, "Young master Ye, no, the emperor just lost his temper temporarily. You don't need to take it seriously."

"Yes, Mr. Ye!" Nan Muchun also stepped forward to persuade him.

Nangong Feiyan pulled Nangong Feixue and begged: "Sister Huang, you... please say something!"

Nangong Feixue gritted her teeth and said angrily: "Let him go. Could it be that if I leave him, it will be difficult for me to move forward?"

"Princess……"

Just as Lu Danyang was about to speak, Nangong Feixue interrupted him sharply: "Shut up! My feet are on him, and he wants to leave. Do you still need me to beg him humbly? Don't forget to ask him to keep the horse!" "

Ye Qingchen laughed and said, "Why do the three of us need horses? I want to open your eyes and see how fast we are without horses. We are much faster than with horses."

After that, he said goodbye to the rest of the Chu people: "Brothers, please protect Princess Feixue. See you later!"

He held Shi Yingchun in one hand and Nan Peijue in the other, turned to the north, lifted off the ground against the wind, and disappeared from everyone's sight in an instant.

"Ah!" The Chu people seemed to have not expected that he would really leave, and they suddenly exclaimed.

Nangong Feixue looked at the direction he left, her lips trembling and tears rolling in her eyes.

Nangong Feiyu ordered: "Nan Munchun, your Qinggong is the best, go and chase him!"

"Don't go!" Nangong Feixue said flatly, "We are about to enter the Chu Kingdom, what else is there to be afraid of?"

Lu Danyang sighed: "Princess, after Si Tianming's death, the territory of Qian Kingdom is indeed unimpeded. You must know in your heart that Chu Kingdom is full of crises and is our biggest challenge!"

Nangong Feixue glanced at the crowd and said, "According to your opinion, even if I return home without Ye Qingchen, it would be meaningless, right? In this case, why do you go to all the trouble to rescue me?"

The people of Chu lowered their heads one after another and stopped talking.

Nangong Feixue got on his horse and took the lead in galloping towards Linqu Pass. The rest did not dare to neglect, so they had to mount their horses and follow.

After leaving Quzhou Border Pass of Qian Kingdom and crossing a boundary mountain, the majestic Linqu Pass can already be seen vaguely.

There is the Chu State, their own country.

However, no one was excited to go home at all, and instead felt uneasiness and fear in their hearts.

Not long after, a group of people came to Linqu Pass.

On the wall of the pass gate tower, a general in full armor shouted loudly: "Who is coming?"

Yan Nantian rode his horse forward and rebuked loudly: "You are blind, this is Princess Feixue of Great Chu, please open the pass quickly!"

The guard didn't seem surprised. He didn't go downstairs to greet them. He just stood on the high gate tower and bowed to everyone.

He said calmly: "Chen Zhifu, the guard of Linqu Pass, pays homage to Princess Feixue, His Royal Highness Prince Nanling, and Princess Feiyan. Are you going to enter the pass?"

"Nonsense!" Yan Nantian said angrily, "Your Highnesses are tired from the journey. Why don't you open the door quickly to welcome them as they enter the customs and treat them well?"

Chen Zhifu smiled coldly: "I'm sorry, your highnesses. It's not that the general didn't open the door. It's actually that the day before yesterday, the general received a military order from His Highness the Crown Prince, saying that recently there were spies from the Qian Kingdom pretending to be the three highnesses and trying to get into our country. The order. Every pass must be strictly guarded, and no countrymen can be allowed to enter without authorization. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"
