The fire continued for an entire night before it stopped.

However, the number of people around them gradually decreased. According to Lai Xuan's orders, they would follow the usual route to their new residence. Only a few elderly people cried and refused to leave.

He was already unable to remember how he fell asleep yesterday, but his body was extremely light and he couldn't find the slightest pain. He then moved his neck, and an arm was stretched out to support her shoulders. His voice carried the hoarseness of someone who had just awoken, "Rest a bit more. You just woke up and didn't move recklessly."

"What's the situation?" Gu Danyan simply moved closer to Duan Cheng Xuan's embrace, hung her arm on his leg, and closed her eyes.

"The child's condition is not bad, but your stomach is a bit smaller than a normal pregnant woman, so it's hard to tell that it's been five months." Duan Chengxuan gave a low laugh as he embraced her and supported her to lie down on his side, leaning on his thigh.

Gu Liuyan patted his waist: "I'm asking about the situation in the city. Did you manage them yesterday? "

"Since you're your lover, you naturally can't sit idly by and do nothing about them." With his other hand, he gestured to the servant beside him, causing Ai Qi to be brought over. His voice was still cold as he said, "Ai Yan's army has suffered heavy losses, but even now, when they saw the chain bridge, they didn't dare step on it. Moreover, there were only a few hundred soldiers that escaped from the city.

Only then did Gu Danyan feel slightly relieved.

"Since you've already done your work, shouldn't you fulfill my wish?" Duan Chengxuan's hand fell on her chin and he raised it slightly. The person in his embrace even obediently lifted his body.

"Even if you don't come, as long as you see that my body isn't nimble, others will definitely not let me off."

If Duan Chengxuan was not around, perhaps she really wouldn't be able to deal with the smoke of the mountain fires. Even ghosts and other places were left behind by her, but there wasn't a single person worth trusting within the city.

"In the future, whether I or a ghost, there will always be someone by your side." Duan Cheng Xuan pressed his fingertips against her dry lips. "Get up and eat something. We'll leave in a while."

"Right." Gu Danyan brushed his hand away and rested against his thigh for a while before finally getting up. This slightly bulging stomach was always a burden for her, but compared to the other women, her stomach was already considered small.

However, looking at the dishes of porridge in the food box, Gu Danyan found it strange. He then noticed that there was already a luxurious carriage parked in the nearby mountain forest, which was out of place in the area where the smoke and dust had yet to disperse.

She suspiciously glanced at Duan Cheng Xuan, and for a moment, she didn't know when he would have the ability to be so domineering in someone else's territory.

He had just finished half a bowl of porridge when he heard a muffled sound. Ai Qi's cursing voice came from behind the tree. "Can't you be gentler next time you call for help?"

Gu Liuyan's eyes turned colder.

Yesterday, Ai Qi obviously knew what poison she was infected with, but he had almost told Duan Chengxuan about it.

Ai Qi patted off the dust on his body. He hadn't changed last night's injury. Now, he walked to Gu Daiyan's side and knelt on the ground to check her pulse. He felt extremely moved.

Last night, Gu Xuan Yan's eyes seemed as if she wanted to kill her, but she didn't know why Gu Qing Yan was willing to give birth to a child even though she knew she was doing so. Similarly, she didn't have full confidence in being able to do so.

Your body is too weak.

He coughed lightly a few times before speaking, "Your fetal aura has stabilized a lot, but in the future, you'd better find a safe place to recuperate. The Void Elder has already shown his sincerity, and once he can order out the army of Lai Xuan, he wouldn't care about me, I can follow you to detoxify the poison."

"After I give birth to my child and cure the poison, I will help you get what you want." Gu Liuyan pulled back his wrist with a gentle smile on his face.

"Do you really know what I want?" Aizi chuckled.

"Just a fair share. You still have many years left in your life, so you should be able to get it anyway." Gu Danyan leaned on Duan Chengxuan's arm and slowly stood up, his legs slightly trembling. However, he still swore sincerely to Ai Qi from the beginning to the end, "Am I right?"

Ai Qi's expression changed. In the end, he only made a wry smile. "Gu Liuyan, people like you are scary."

"It's better to know fear." Gu Danyan revealed a gloomy smile at a place that Duan Chengxuan couldn't see. "Let's go together."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Danyan had already been carried into the carriage by Duan Chengxuan.

Ai Qi hesitated for a long time before slowly standing up. Someone brought a horse for her from the forest and warned her in a low voice, "In the end, you are still Jiang Yan's man. If you dare to do anything disrespectful to that prince, we will behead you."

Clenching his teeth tightly, Ai Qi nodded and got on the horse. He then looked at the carriage in front of him.

The two of them were a match made in heaven.

When the few of them left, only Duan Chengxuan left behind a piece of paper for them to write down. He even sent a messenger pigeon to inform Lai Xuan that they were leaving.

The carriage headed in the direction of the water pass. Gu Daiyan leaned against the carriage and fiddled with the herbs in the bundle. Duan Chengxuan's words entered his ears, "Your Yun clan's secret medicine can't cure your poison."

"There is something to counter me. If consumed, I might be able to return my soul to the heavens." Gu Danyan lazily said. He lifted the curtain of the carriage with one hand and asked: "We are going to Navy Tide."

"Compared to Navy Tide's chaos, I'm actually willing to take your mountain village to recuperate." Duan Cheng Xuan had a fake smile on his face as he grabbed her wrist. "I said that I would discipline you."

"What do you mean?" Gu Daiyan raised his eyebrows, his scalp tingling.

"There are quite a few small villages near Aldan. These places are mostly where several clans have gathered. Apart from those who are left behind to guard it, very few people outside would be involved." Duan Chengxuan threatened in a low voice, then he bit down on these words heavily, "Take good care of your baby."

Gu Danyan originally wanted to refute a few words, but when he thought about it again, he felt that he was unreasonable in the end, and he was only leaving because he thought too much about it earlier, and if he were to lose his temper with Duan Chengxuan now, then it would be his own fault.

"I'll listen to you." Gu Danyan moved to Duan Chenxuan's side and lightly leaned on her shoulder.

Every time she stayed by Duan Chenxuan's side, she would feel exhausted.

Duan Chengxuan carefully raised his hand to support her body, carefully protecting it from the bumpy journey.

After leaving Jiang Yan's territory, they met with the setting sun and found a place to sleep.

Ai Zhi was naturally accompanying Gu Daiyan all night long, so the two girls took care of each other easily. Duan Chengxuan fiddled with the bonfire that was not too far away, but he heard the faint sounds of horse hooves coming from the forest.

The guard on the branch jumped down and said, "It's the black clothed soldiers that appeared outside the city earlier. They are currently charging toward this place."

"Send someone to protect them." Duan Chengxuan threw away the branch in his hand and drew the saber at his waist, releasing a piercing cold light.

"Be careful, their purpose is unknown." Gu Mingyan moved closer to the tree trunk.

The sound of hooves gradually grew closer.
