In the woods not far from Qianqiu County, Ji Xian and others who had disembarked early were walking on the official road, heading towards Jiangdu.
Ji Xian, who was walking in front, holding the candied haws she had bought along the way, turned and glanced at Jin Ren: "The identities of those killers are mysterious and their backgrounds are not small. Who knows if they have any representatives in the government? It's better to be cautious."
Humph, I can't be discovered by the government, otherwise Luoxue will definitely take me back. Do you think I will tell you about this?
"But you, my hero, have a high level of cultivation. Why don't you carry Ah Hui on your back? Why do you want me to do it instead?"
Jin Ren began to complain that he was still carrying the seriously injured Jin Hui.
Ji Xian glanced at him and said, "Who knows when those killers will suddenly attack? I have to stay alert and be ready to fight at any time. Of course, I can't carry people on my back."
"But aren't you eating candied haws? Is this also keeping you alert?"
"I'm pretending to be relaxed so the killers won't be careless."
"Really?"
"Well, of course it's true."
"But this place is still a long way from Jiangdu. How long will it take to get there if we walk this way?"
"Just keep going. When we get to the post station, we can buy a carriage and continue our journey."
"Oh."
Jin Ren nodded and said nothing more.
Haha, this little fat guy is so easy to fool.
Ji Xian laughed in her heart and took another bite of the candied haws.
In fact, the reason why Ji Xian didn't carry Jin Hui on her back was very simple. In short, it was just one word: lazy.
2.13 The Emperor's aunt began to worry
The passenger ship docked in Qianqiu County, and most of the passengers hurried to disembark, not caring about their original destination. After all, such a big incident had happened on the ship, and everyone was in a panic.
Many passengers had witnessed the bloody scene and the sword that split the sky last night. After witnessing a battle of this magnitude, how many people dared to stay on the ship?
However, even if these passengers get off the ship, they still have to undergo inspection at the dock and can only enter Qianqiu County after being confirmed to be safe.
The officers and soldiers also boarded the ship and conducted a thorough search to see if the thieves and killers were still hiding on the ship, or if there was anything suspicious on the ship.
At the dock, many passengers were queuing up for inspection, scrambling to leave.
But at this time, a woman in white was walking against the team towards the boat. She had long hair down to her waist and her white clothes fluttered in the wind. She looked like a fairy as she walked in the sunshine. It even seemed that a fairy might not be half as good as her.
This woman walked on the dock, attracting countless people's attention. Many people found it difficult to look away the moment they saw her appearance.
She walked to the area where the ships were docked and was stopped by officers and soldiers.
"Stop, who are you? No unauthorized entry."
The woman took out a silver token from her sleeve, on which was engraved a lifelike dragon.
Seeing this token, the officers and soldiers were surprised and quickly made way to let him pass. "We didn't know the Secret Guard had arrived. Please forgive us."
"Where's your leader?"
"The captain leading the team is currently investigating on the ship. Is the Secret Guard looking for him?"
"Yes, take me aboard, I have something to ask him."
"Could you please tell me your name, sir, so that I can inform you."
"Su Luoxue."
"Su...Su Luoxue!?"
The officers and soldiers looked at each other, and many of them became stunned when they heard the name.
Su Luoxue had just taken out the Silver Dragon Order, and it was of the highest rank. This indicated that she held a very high position within the Silver Dragon Guard, either as a commander or a helmsman.
But the officers and soldiers never expected that when they asked the other party's name, the other party actually said that she was Su Luoxue.
Su Luoxue is the biological daughter of Marshal Yinlong, and the chief minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty, second only to the emperor in the court.
How could such a person suddenly appear in Qianqiu County?
These officers and soldiers immediately dared not delay and rushed to report the news.
A moment later, Su Luoxue boarded the ship under the guidance of officers and soldiers, and found the captain and the local captain of Qianqiu County.
"I, Yunfeng, the captain of Qianqiu County, greet Lord Su."
"Excuse me, I have something to ask you."
"Sir, please speak."
Su Luoxue went east along the waterway and when she arrived in Qianqiu County, she went to the local government to inquire about the news, and then she learned what happened on the ship.
So, Su Luoxue came over to find out the situation and see if she could find any information about Ji Xian.
She was lucky enough to find out.
"You said that the person fighting with the killer was a young man who looked about my age, and his weapons were two swords, right?" Su Luoxue went straight to the point.
"Yes." The captain nodded, his tone very sure. "That young man is quite handsome and has an extraordinary bearing. The spiritual energy emanating from his weapons is obviously extraordinary. One is red and the other is gray. I wonder what kind of magical weapons they are."
"Did he say his name?" Su Luoxue asked again.
"He said his name was Su Xian."
Su Luoxue confirmed that this person must be Ji Xian.
But...how could Ji Xian fight with the mysterious assassin on the ship? And from their description, the battle that broke out last night even triggered the scene of world destruction.
The fact that a battle that could force out the destruction of the world showed that Ji Xian’s opponent was also a Yang God!
Although it is important to investigate Ji Xian's whereabouts, Su Luoxue has also found out that Ji Xian and the people from the Jiangdu Jin family suddenly disappeared at some point.
I guess he ran away to avoid me...
Jiangdu Jin family?
Su Luoxue got a clear destination, and for the moment she was not in a hurry to chase to Jiangdu. Instead, she looked at the captain and the lieutenant: "Is the body of the killer killed by that young master still there?"
"Yes, they are all currently concentrated in Room 7."
"take me."
So the captain and the lieutenant took Su Luoxue to room seven.
There are still large pools of blood in Room 7, and the bodies have been sorted together, which looks quite bloody and disgusting.
Even the experienced captain and the local lieutenant from Qianqiu County couldn't help but frown upon seeing this scene. However, Su Luoxue walked over to the body without changing her expression, squatted down, and began to examine it, not paying any attention to the bloodstains.
After searching for a while, Su Luoxue found something from the body of one of the killers.
It is also a token, but there is a butterfly engraved on it.
"Butterfly Shadow?"
Su Luoxue recognized that this was Dieying's token and was immediately surprised.
Dieying, the world's number one killer group, is the most wanted target of the Great Zhou. As the chief minister of the Great Zhou, how could Su Luoxue not know this?
Ji Xian....how could she fight with Dieying!
Su Luoxue became a little flustered and began to worry about Ji Xian's safety.
You must know that among the several forces that split from the Daxuan rebel party, Dieying is the strongest one, far beyond the reach of Lu Zhanfei, Baili Qiankun and other forces!
The Butterfly Shadow Organization operates in a tight and covert manner, with many powerful experts. Even as a legitimate martial arts sect, they are one of the top ones in the world.
When it comes to the combat power of Yang Gods, there are three Dieyings, and they are all top-level Yang Gods!
Su Luoxue had heard her cousin, Ji Xian's father, mention Dieying.
The second leader of Dieying is Cheng Longjiu's substitute puppet, and the third leader is a woman named Cheng Ying. Both of them are the top Yang Gods in the world, and their strength is not inferior to Su Luoxue.
Cheng Longjiu, the chief of Butterfly Shadow, was formerly the twelfth national god of Daxuan. His strength was enough to rival that of her father, Silver Dragon Commander!
It would be terrible if Ji Xian provoked Dieying when she was alone and helpless!
If Ji Xian's identity is exposed, Dieying will probably not let him go!
"Ji Xian..."
Su Luoxue clenched her fists tightly, forced herself to calm down, and began to think about Ji Xian's current situation and his future whereabouts.
Given Ji Xian's personality, she would never reveal her identity easily. I'm afraid that man named Jin Ren doesn't even know that he is actually the Emperor of the Great Zhou, so the possibility of his identity being exposed should be small.
But judging from the fight last night, Ji Xian has already alarmed Dieying's Yang Spirit, and the situation is not optimistic.
He will protect the Jin family and disappear with the Jin family. I think they should travel together, so their destination is most likely Jiangdu.
Soon, Su Luoxue went to the deck, called a phoenix bird, wrote a letter and sent the bird out.
This is a letter to the Jiangdu branch of the Tianhu Guard, asking them to make preparations in advance to deal with emergencies.
She didn't have the Sky Fox Guards conduct a large-scale search, nor did she dispatch other Great Zhou Protector Gods. This was because Ji Xian had excellent perception, and Su Luoxue was afraid that Ji Xian would notice this and alarm him.
It was rare to find Ji Xian's whereabouts, and Su Luoxue didn't want to scare him away.
Su Luoxue also set off immediately and walked towards Jiangdu, hoping to catch up with Ji Xian halfway.
2.14 The Emperor and the Little Aunt were driven away
Jiangdu is the capital of Yangzhou. It has convenient waterways and plays a vital role in finance and trade. It can be said to be one of the most prosperous capitals in the entire Yangzhou, and can even be called the capital of Yangzhou.
Ji Xian bought a carriage and rode non-stop day and night, finally arriving in Jiangdu in the shortest time possible.
Fortunately, they hadn't encountered any danger along the way, and the Butterfly Shadow assassins hadn't come looking for them. However, along the way, Ji Xian discovered many checkpoints set up by the Great Zhou Dynasty and patrols searching along the way, and the martial law level was very high.
Compared to Jizhou, Yangzhou's public security was much better, and there had been no major disturbances for many years. The sudden increase in the level of martial law must have been due to something going on in Yangzhou.
It is possible that the killers like Dieying are active in Yangzhou, or it is possible that they are other Daxuan rebels.
Of course, the possibility that Ji Xian could think of most was that these people were trying to catch her.
Falling snow.....Have you guessed that I am in Yangzhou?
Ji Xian didn't know that Su Luoxue had already found out about the Jin family in Jiangdu, but she guessed that the high level of martial law in Yangzhou at the moment was probably related to herself.
Ji Xian had no plans to meet Su Luoxue. After all, if she met her this time, it would be extremely difficult to escape.
They encountered many cordons along the way, but fortunately, the fat boy Jin Ren's Jin family identity was very useful. After learning the identity of the Jin family, the officers and soldiers simply searched and let him go.
Ji Xian made a simple disguise for herself, making herself look so dirty that they didn't notice, so she entered Jiangdu City smoothly.
The city is very lively, with people coming and going on the streets, various stalls and shops everywhere, and you can see rivers or streams from time to time every time you drive a distance.
Jin Ren was sitting at the front of the carriage driving the horses, while Jin Hui was still lying unconscious in the carriage.
Ji Xian sat next to Jin Ren, looking at everything in Jiangdu with a smile on her face, finding it fresh and interesting.
Seeing Ji Xian smiling so happily, Jin Ren couldn't help but ask, "Is this your first time in Jiangdu, hero?"
"Yeah, first time."
"Then when we're safe, I'll take you on a tour of Jiangdu. Even though I haven't been back for a long time, I'm very familiar with this place."
"Hey, how come you're so brave now?"
"That's right. Our Jin family's power is mainly concentrated in Jiangdu. No matter how powerful those killers are, do they dare to run wild in Jiangdu?"
Jin Ren's expression was smug and his tone was extremely arrogant, completely different from how he was on the boat before.
But Ji Xian could understand it.
After all, Jiangdu is not as big as Changchuan City. Changchuan City is just a small city in Jingzhou. I think the Jin family originally planned to start from Changchuan City and then gradually develop into Jingzhou.
But Jiangdu is different. Jiangdu is the capital of Yangzhou, and it is one of the best in the entire Kyushu.
Judging from the little fat man's description a few days ago, the Jin family's influence in Jiangdu is not small. Being able to gain a foothold in Jiangdu shows that they are indeed very powerful.
Moreover, Jiangdu is an important city in Yangzhou, and the Great Zhou troops stationed here are naturally powerful. If anything really happens, they will suppress it in the first time, and their garrison force is far beyond that of Changchuan City.
Thinking of this, Ji Xian could understand why this little fat boy was so arrogant now.
However, reality quickly slapped this little fat guy in the face...
They found the Jin Mansion as soon as possible, but were stopped outside the door by the servants.
