Yesterday, Xie Qingrong and the others discussed on leaving for the Martial Union, as for the matter of Xuanyuan Jing being beheaded and shown to the masses, it had already been forgotten by Xuanyuan Chen and Xie Qingrong.
Since they knew that Xuanyuan Jing would be saved by the people Wu Huan sent, why would they waste their efforts on him?
Furthermore, Xuanyuan Chen still wanted to see to what extent would Xuanyuan Jing be able to do it.
After all, Xuanyuan Jing had easily given up on that day of interrogation.
At the entrance of the capital, a row of handsome men and beautiful women sat atop six fine horses.
Qi Yun was not at ease when Jun Changyou rode his horse, so he brought Jun Changyou along to ride his horse as well, and Jun Changyou peacefully nestled inside Qi Yun's embrace. The other six looked at each other, then brandished their horsewhips and spurred their horses out of the capital, heading for the Martial Union.
The scenery along the way was simply too captivating.
Even though Xie Qingrong was a beauty who did not care about the mountains and water, she still slowed down her horse. Shang Zhiqing and Xie Qingrong sat side by side and saw that her gaze was fixated on the flower bushes that were blooming on both sides of the road.
Shang Zhiqing tilted her head and laughed.
Her actions, which carried a trace of playfulness, made her seem very lively.
"Elder sister, have you ever heard of Flower Valley?"
Xie Qingrong shook her head. Even after coming to this world for so long, she still knew nothing about this world. Although she had all the memories of her original body, her original body was still just a young miss who couldn't step out of the door. How would she know about these places?
Shang Zhiqing continued to explain to Xie Qingrong: "According to the rumors, there are a hundred flowers in the Flower Valley. Countless butterflies dancing around, it's like a paradise on earth. "
"Have you been in love before?" Xie Qingrong asked.
Shang Zhiqing's delicate eyes flashed with a proud light, as if she was intelligent, "If there is a chance in the future, I will bring big sister to have a look at the fairyland in this world."
When Ji Rufeng heard that Shang Zhiqing was going to bring Xie Qingrong to the Flower Valley, his originally gentle face unconsciously sharpened. Although it only happened in a blink of an eye, it was completely captured in Xuanyuan Chen's eyes.
Shen Haoxuan was also a little curious as to what kind of fairyland this Flower Valley was. Previously, he had travelled to the north and south of the river before helping Xuanyuan Chen gather intelligence.
However, he had never heard of such an existence in this world.
There were some doubts in his heart, and he was even more curious about the mysterious identity that Shang Zhiqing had behind her back.
"It's getting late. There's an inn ahead of us. Let's take a break today and continue our journey tomorrow." Xuanyuan Chen looked up at the sky and ordered.
Xie Qingrong, Xuanyuan Chen and the rest brought their horses into the stable in the backyard, Xuanyuan Chen's keen senses told him that someone was staring at him with an intimidating gaze.
He raised his head and looked at the back of the house. There was a small piece of gray cloth near the woodshed.
Xuanyuan Chen calmly curled his lips, and his fingers lightly hooked onto Xie Qingrong's finger. Xie Qingrong looked at the place where Xuanyuan Chen's fingertip pointed towards with a puzzled look, and at the same time, saw that piece of grey colored corner of his clothes.
Xie Qingrong raised her eyebrow, she already understood some of what Xuanyuan Chen meant.
The waiter had already prepared a meal and the group of people sat down. There was only one table full of guests in the entire inn.
Shen Haoxuan remained calm and collected as he poured tea for Xuanyuan Chen and the rest. The few of them had only taken a light sip to quench their thirst, but as for the dishes on the table, they had indeed not been touched at all.
Jun Changyou's hand that was hidden under the table was already tightly grabbing onto Qi Yun's hand.
The tense atmosphere gradually spread. It was as if there was something in the air that was about to explode.
Ji Rufeng suddenly scoffed, and broke the awkward and tense atmosphere, "I've been hungry for the whole day, why aren't I eating?"
However, his gaze was fixed on the group of waiters behind him, whose gazes were like tigers and wolves.
Xuanyuan Chen was the first to pick up the chopsticks on the table, and added a piece of Red Braised Meat that looked like it could make one's appetite rise.
Right at this moment, he threw the Red Braised Meat behind him with all his might, as if he was carrying an unstoppable force. The person behind him was hit in the forehead, causing him to fall backwards.
It was like a signal to start, Xie Qingrong and the rest who were sitting started to move, and started to fight with the group of people that seemed to have ill intentions.
and Jun Changyou were the only ones still sitting at the dining table. Qi Yun's left hand was tightly holding onto Jun Changyou while his right hand was holding onto a pair of wooden chopsticks.
Some inconspicuous thugs thought that the two people who were sitting were easy to bully, but just as the long blade was about to fall, the chopsticks in Qi Yun's hand had already pierced into the thug's chest.
The thug looked at the wooden chopsticks in front of his chest in disbelief. However, he didn't even have a chance to regret why he had chosen this seemingly ruthless person.
The sleeve arrow on Xie Qingrong's wrist cut open the throat of the inn's owner. Bright blood slowly flowed down the Lady Boss's slender white neck, like a blooming flower of hell, bringing with it an extremely gorgeous appearance.
The waiter had been hiding behind the counter since the start of the battle. Smelling the thick smell of blood in the air, the sounds of the swords and sabers killing had disappeared, but he still didn't dare to leave while trembling.
Unexpectedly, Xuanyuan Chen picked up a pair of chopsticks from the table and poured in a large amount of inner force. The chopsticks pierced through the cupboard like a hot knife through butter and pierced through the waiter's chest.
The trembling body of the waiter instantly calmed down and silently swallowed his breath.
Ji Rufeng dusted his sleeves, which did not even have a speck of dust in them, and clapped. He praised Xuanyuan Chen's last strike with a smile that was not a smile: "Prince Chen has good martial arts, I'm impressed."
Xuanyuan Chen nodded, accepting Ji Rufeng's words that seemed to be full of praise, but was not.
His gaze landed on Xie Qingrong's body, and carefully checked if there were any injuries on Xie Qingrong's body. Seeing that she was unharmed, he heaved a sigh of relief.
He took out a white handkerchief from his bosom and wiped clean the bloodstains on Xie Qingrong's sleeve arrow.
Just now, when they were fighting, Ji Rufeng had noticed the exquisite and small sleeve arrow on Xie Qingrong's wrist that was releasing a cold light.
At this moment, he curiously pointed at the sleeve arrow and asked puzzledly: "What is this? It's so exquisite, so powerful, and so ingenious."
Xie Qingrong stroked the sleeve arrow on her wrist, her cold and indifferent eyes also tinged with a little bit of arrogance. Even though her tone was light, one could not hear the pride in her voice.
"This is an arrow from the wrist. This is the only one in the world. "
"Can you lend it to me to take a look?" Ji Rufeng was really curious about this thing, he really wanted to observe it.
Hearing that, Xie Qingrong's expression darkened, and her lips pursed. Although she was unwilling to remove the wrist arrow, she had an intuition in her heart that told her that this person could be trusted, and that she could also be close to him.
After a moment of hesitation, he took down the arrow from his wrist and handed it over to Ji Rufeng.
Ji Rufeng immediately took the arrow and held it in his hands, looking it up and down carefully, praising it: "What an exquisite design."
