Chapter 1592: Chapter 1592: Still Selling Out the Country?
“His bodily functions are all being maintained by medicinal pills; even if he could wake up, I would still have him continue to sleep. In this way, we can save his stamina, as well as our own strength,”
After all, it’s better to be with someone in a coma than to be with a wounded person who is awake and restless, unsure of where to place themselves.
She didn’t want to treat Qian Jiyun’s good brother this way, but the reality was that they were being pursued. At any moment, they would have to fight a fierce battle with their enemies.
“Where to next?” she asked Su Tang.
“If we keep going for half a day, we’ll reach Sunset County,” Su Tang immediately replied.
“Hmm, once we’re there, let’s buy some food and inquire about the whereabouts of the Sky Phoenix Gra.s.s. We need to gather the two medicinal ingredients as quickly as possible,” An Jiuyue said.
“Alright.”
Su Tang responded.
Zhan Beiye also nodded solemnly.
…
“Here, make do with some food.”
They had planned to enter Sunset City, but even before entering, Wei Na told her there were many people filled with a murderous aura in Sunset City, likely waiting for them.
Therefore, they bypa.s.sed Sunset City directly and continued their journey from the sidelines.
After eating what little food they had, An Jiuyue took out some fruits from her s.p.a.ce and offered them to the others.
“Thanks, we’re lucky to have you.”
Zhan Beiye happily bit into the fruit. If it weren’t for An Jiuyue’s presence, they didn’t know how they would have managed. Of course, if An Jiuyue hadn’t come, they wouldn’t have known that Xiang Qiyan had been poisoned.
“With the way things are going, finding the Cold Soul Flower Core will also be very difficult.”
They were being watched every step of the way, and Rui Prison Grounds was no exception. After all, what they could find out, Xiang Qifeng also knew. The poison was his, wasn’t it?
“Anyone who dares to stand in our way, we’ll kill them,” An Jiuyue said, taking a bite of an apple.
Being too kind really doesn’t yield good results; she had seen clearly now. Mercy was of no use at all; it would only become a stumbling block for her.
“I mean, doesn’t your lord have anyone? If Xiang Qifeng has so many people, he should at least be able to send some help to deal with them,” she suggested.
Let the two forces fight it out, while they continued to search for the Sky Phoenix Gra.s.s and the Cold Soul Flower Core. Wouldn’t that be great?
“I have already sent out a message. By the time we reach Rui Prison Grounds, the people there will be dealt with,” Su Tang said, raising his head and scratching the back of his head.
“That’s more like it.”
An Jiuyue pursed her lips. Someone who lived under the protection of Xiang Qiyan could already muster so many men; surely Xiang Qiyan’s own men wouldn’t be too few, right?
Deal with all the obstacles along their way, and that would be it.
“However, I have received information that Xiang Qifeng seems to have allied with others, and that person is not from the Xiang Dynasty,” Su Tang added.
“Huh, treason, then?”
An Jiuyue let out a cold laugh and glanced at Zhan Beiye.
“What are you looking at me for?” Zhan Beiye felt a chill on his scalp and asked in return.
Alright, he admitted that in this regard, Xiang Qiyan was much better than him. For Xiang Qiyan, the only traitor was a younger brother he had taken in, whereas for him, the traitor was the Emperor himself.
“Don’t overthink it.”
“I’m not overthinking.”
An Jiuyue shook her head, unsure of what Zhan Beiye was thinking.
