"What is this place?"

He had already lost consciousness from running, and he had never left Fenggong, so he did not know where he was right now.

Everyone shook their heads, not even bothering to speak. They too, had no idea where they were. The only thing he knew was that he had already bypassed being rich.

The sound of hooves and people came from not too far away. Everyone held their breath as they were afraid that the other party would notice them.

Listening carefully, it seemed that the sounds of horse hooves and human voices came from all directions. Ling Feng helplessly sighed as his gaze landed on Ji Tian Ning. He wanted to kill Ji Tian Ning, but he also knew that Ji Tian Ning might be his only chance to survive.

"Wei Changqing, I think we should continue on our way. This place is too close to fertile land. "The farther away we are, the safer we will be. We will wrap the horses' hooves in cloth and make no noise. How about following the hills and the trees?"

"This is the only plan we have. This place is not far from the Ye City. We can rest when we get to the Ye City."

They wrapped the horses' hooves with cloth and didn't mount the horses. Instead, they led the horses through the forest. The first reason was to hide the tracks, and the second reason was to let the horses rest for a while. The roads were bumpy and unsuitable for riding.

They walked along the mountain path, only Ji Tian Ning was still tied to the horse.

She slipped on the horse, cut the rope, clamped her legs tightly around the horse, and lay down on its back. Since they did not dare to light their torches, the light was even darker in the dense forest, so she did not have to worry too much about being discovered.

Slowly moving her hands and wrists, she grasped the rope. From the outside, the rope was still tied to her body.

"This is a chance, it's surrounded by hills and dense forest. If I ride my horse and escape into the depths, they won't dare to make any noise or stay behind, I have a very high chance of escaping."

As his blood flowed through his veins, the numbness in his body gradually disappeared and he regained his strength. Along the way, she was either on horseback or in a carriage, so she did not consume much energy.

The group advanced in silence, heading north. They were tired and hungry, but they did not dare to rest. As they dragged their exhausted bodies forward, some of them had already left the line. No one cared about those who had fallen behind, they continued onward with a blank expression on their faces.

Ji Tian Ning noticed that not far away, there was a ravine filled with withered grass. The trees on both sides of the ravine were quite lush, and if a horse were to rush in, even if it wasn't far, the path inside wouldn't be suitable for a horse. She could also dismount and flee along the mountain path, or find a place to hide.

"They definitely wouldn't dare to reveal it, much less stay here for too long to search for me. That's the idea."

Ji Tian Ning stabbed the knife into Wei Changqing's neck and slid it across his neck. Although the knife in her hand was small, it was still extremely sharp. Immediately, she made a small cut on Wei Changqing's neck.

He reached out and grabbed the reins. With a pinch of his leg, he turned around and fiercely stabbed the horse in the face. The horse jumped up in pain and dashed into a nearby ravine.

Wei Changqing widened his eyes as he felt his power dissipating. Ji Tianning naturally knew how to kill a person the fastest. At this moment, the blade in her hand was not saving people, but killing them.

It wasn't wrong to say that she saved him, she saved him.

The knife cut through the artery on Wei Changqing's neck and his windpipe, causing blood to gurgle out.

Wei Changqing laid on the ground, unwilling to give up even at death's door. How could he have died so easily?

"The evil concubine has run away, the evil concubine has run away …"

"Shut up, don't make a ruckus, Wei Changqing …"

Ling Feng turned his head and, borrowing the moonlight, saw that Wei Changqing's neck was bleeding like a fountain. His mouth was agape, but he could not say a single word. With a plop, he fell to the ground.

Ah!

He still needed to rely on Wei Changqing to command the army and escort him to the Ye City. If something were to happen to Wei Changqing, he did not know what to do.

Hurriedly running to Wei Changqing's side, he bent down to take a look. Under the moonlight, Wei Changqing's pupils were dilated. He could only exhale and had no energy to breathe. His face was pale and he could no longer live.

The two experts who were following Ling Feng did not wait for Ling Feng's orders. They jumped onto their horses and followed closely behind Ji Tian Ning as they charged into the ravine. When they arrived, Feng Jingping had already instructed the two of them to capture Ji Tian Ning alive no matter what.

Protecting Ling Feng was just an easy task. Their true mission was to bring Ji Tian Ning before Feng Jingping.

"Milord, milord …"

Everyone started to panic. Ling Feng was stunned for a moment as he hurriedly stopped everyone from making a ruckus. Wei Changqing had died. The two experts he relied on did not even greet each other before they went to chase after Ji Tian Ning. Now, he was alone.

Eyes rolling for a long time, he called Wei Changqing's assistant, "Ma Li, now that Wei Changqing has lost his life, you are the commander. These people will be led by you to Ye Xiwen city."

"Yes, Lord Manager."

Ma Li bowed slightly as his eyes rolled a few times. He ordered everyone to get up.

Ji Tian Ning's horse was startled by the pain. It ran madly into the ravine. Fortunately, the mountain valley was overgrown with weeds and the roads were uneven. Trees and horses couldn't be used. Not long after, the speed slowed down.

Only when the horse slowed down did Ji Tian Ning let out a sigh of relief. He slightly raised his head from the horse's back and tried to identify the direction. The horse was too tired from the run. Its legs were shaking and it fell to the ground.

Ji Tian Ning was thrown from the horse's back to the ground. She couldn't help but cry out in pain. As a result, the wound on his shoulder split open again.

The horse fell to the ground, spitting white foam, unable to get up. Ji Tian Ning silently sat up, took her backpack from the horse's back, opened her backpack and took out medicine and scissors, before applying medicine to bandage her wound.

He sat next to the horse to rest as he listened but didn't hear any sounds of people chasing after them.

Ling Feng looked left and right dejectedly, hoping that the two experts would return. In his heart, he had a bit of confidence. However, when he looked around, he did not see the two returning.

"Manager, should we continue forward or go search for that sinful consort?"

"In the dark night, where are you going to find her? Let her go. "Now that Fenggong has been defeated, she is no longer of any value. Furthermore, there are already people chasing after her. We need to hurry up and get to Ye City as soon as possible."

"Yes, head steward. Are you tired?"

There was a malicious smile on Ma Li's face as he looked at Ling Feng. Ling Feng glared at him and said, "Why aren't you hurrying on your way? Who hasn't been tired? This general director has never been in such a sorry state before, and all the bones in my body have scattered. "

"In that case, the Head Supervisor should take a good rest."

"You …"

Ling Feng did not say a single word. His mind received a heavy blow, and he fainted and fell to the ground.

Ma Li sneered and raised his foot to viciously kick Ling Feng a few times: "You are just a eunuch, how dare you shout out like that in front of this great sir. "He's just a servant serving someone, and doesn't know how many layers he has. Since the emperor gave you a bit of authority, you actually think you're someone important. Why would you allow us brothers to protect a eunuch with our lives?"

"What big brother said is right. For us brothers to serve a eunuch and look at the servant's face is really infuriating. If it wasn't for Wei Changqing stopping him, who would have the patience to give him a good look? The brothers are all exhausted. Fortunately, big brother is wise, so the brothers don't have to keep running, they can settle down. "

"That's right. If we continue running then we won't be able to run. If we meet the Prince Consort's men, then we'll be killed." "If we want to make Lord Prince Consort's troops look like gods, and if our subordinates are all so powerful, how could we be a match for Lord Consort Prince?"

"You're right. Even Fenggong and Prince Consort He attacked us in a single day. We're nothing."

"There's no need to speak any further. We'll head out. You'll be walking at the front with the white flag. If you meet the other party, express your attitude earlier." "It's a pity that that evil concubine managed to run away. Otherwise, it would have been considered a great gift to Lord Prince Consort. His face would have been much better looking."

Ma Li led the crowd and walked outside. The path to the outside was much easier than the inside. They very quickly encountered the army of the Southern Champion, and hastily waved the white flag, indicating that they would surrender.

Someone reported to the Golden Armor that the leader of the Golden Armor group had personally come.

Ma Li walked up to the golden armor and knelt on the ground. He was full of fear as he said, "This general pays his respects to the general. I am too late so I deserve a thousand deaths."

"It's good that you can come. Where is Miss Ji now?"

Golden Armour sat on the horse and looked down at the horse's strength. They knew each other too, but they were not familiar with this little leader.

"General, please forgive me." General, please forgive me. This lowly general has already captured the eunuch who brought men to capture the Empress, Ling Feng, and gave him alive to the Prince Consort. This person is the enemy of the Prince Consort, and he wishes for the General to speak up for us in front of the Prince Consort. "

"Miss Ji escaped?"

The golden armor grew anxious. With such a dark night, he was worried that Ji Tian Ning would be in danger.

"Where did Miss Ji go? Have you ever sent anyone to kill her? Is she hurt? "

"Reporting to General, Miss Ji killed Wei Changqing and rode away. This General was not on guard for a while and did not send anyone to chase after her." However, Ling Feng had two experts by his side. They rode their horses to chase after Lady Ji. "

"Quick, lead the way. Lead us to the place where Lady Ji has escaped to."

The golden-armored man hurriedly let Ma Li lead the way and personally led the troops to the place where Ji Tian Ning had escaped to. He then sent people to search everywhere. He was most worried about the two experts finding Ji Tian Ning first.

After searching for a long time, he finally found the exhausted horse lying on the ground, gasping for breath. However, Ji Tian Ning was nowhere to be seen.

"General, I found traces of hooves and footprints on the ground."

"Search, I must find Miss Ji."

"Yes."

The Golden Armor brought the group to search along the way. Due to the dark night, searching had to be inconvenient, so they had to expend a lot of people and energy, but they couldn't find Ji Tian Ning.

Ji Tian Ning saw that the horses were useless and could not sit still. She was worried that the people Ling Feng sent after her would be killed, so after bandaging her wounds, she got up and turned south, passing through the hills and dense forest so that she could avoid the people who were chasing Feng Yuan.

"That sinful consort is coming over."

The two people who had followed Ji Tian Ning had noticed Ji Tian Ning. Because they were wary of Ji Tian Ning's poisonous methods and magical spells, they had hidden themselves, waiting for Ji Tian Ning to pass by and suddenly attack them.
