The next morning.

The carriage of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion slowly drove towards the city gate, followed by a group of guards. It was said that Miss Su Er, who grew up in Jiangnan and was the future Crown Prince's Consort of Beiyang Palace, was going back to Yucheng, Jiangnan to visit her grandfather. Upon hearing this, the guards at the city gate quickly made way and respectfully escorted her out of the city.

The carriage slowly left the city and stopped at the Shili Pavilion outside the city.

Yun Ya, dressed in plain clothes, was waiting there, leading a dark horse.

"Miss."

The curtain of the car was slowly lifted, revealing Su Jingning in a dark purple dress that looked neat and clean. Her black hair was tied behind her with a purple headband, and she wore no jewelry. Her aura was slightly restrained, and she no longer had the gentle and graceful demeanor of the past, instead she was filled with a cold and stern air that made people afraid to approach her.

Su Jingning got off the carriage and whispered, "Follow the convoy to Yucheng, and then take a detour to Lingyi outside the East Territory to wait for orders."

"Yes, Miss." A voice exactly the same as Su Jingning's came from inside.

Su Jingning took the reins and climbed onto the horse.

"go!"

He shook the reins, and a loud sound of horse hooves suddenly rang out, and the horse galloped out.

Yun Ya followed closely behind, mounted her horse neatly, and chased after him. In an instant, she turned into a black shadow and disappeared at the end of the road.

The carriage slowly turned and headed in another direction.

In the eastern border, Laoshan County, in a hunter's home.

"Consul An, the people we sent out are back."

"Is there any news?" An Xia, dressed in blue, sat at the table and asked.

The man shook his head slightly.

"We have searched this area several times, but there is still no trace of the Crown Prince and the Fourth Young Master. In addition, I have found out that the people chasing after the young masters are not only the Eastern Territory Governor's Office, but also... the Netherworld Guards."

When Anxia launched an expedition, even the Netherworld Guards got involved. We could no longer stay in Laoshan County.

"I got it. Let them rest first. Let's find a way to send the Second Young Master out tomorrow. We can't stay in Laoshan County any longer." An Xia glanced at Su Jingmo, who was unconscious on the bed with a pale face, with worry in her eyes.

The Second Young Master had been in a coma for half a month and had not yet woken up. If he was trapped any longer, his injuries would be even more serious. She had to find a way to get the Second Young Master away tomorrow.

Her letter had been sent out more than ten days ago. It would take at least six days for Laoshan County to reach the capital. If the girl received the message and sent someone over, they would be here soon.

An Xia took out the token that Su Jingning had given her that day. The girl gave her the token and told her to go to Wan Du Valley to find Lord Ye if she had any trouble. But since she rescued the second young master that day, more people have been sent to each pass in Laoshan County. There are heavy soldiers guarding everywhere, so they can only enter but not leave. They can't get out at all.

The Ten Thousand Poison Valley has been entrenched in the East Territory for hundreds of years. It is extremely powerful, both good and evil, mysterious and unpredictable. It has learned the art of poison and created poisons. It has passed down poisons to the world. It is hidden in the Silent Forest hundreds of miles away. The forest is not only filled with poisonous miasma, but also with countless poisonous creatures. It is difficult to enter unless you are from the Ten Thousand Poison Valley.

Besides, the current leader of the Ten Thousand Poison Valley, Ye Ling, is a heartless and merciless female devil. No one dares to provoke her, and no one can afford to provoke her. Even the governor of the East Territory does not dare to step into her poisonous forest.

I hope she can safely escort the Second Young Master out of Laoshan County tomorrow...

Two days later, they were dozens of miles away from the Silent Forest.

"Miss, there's movement in the west!"

Su Jingning was wearing a dark black silk skirt and a dark purple cloak, revealing only half of her beautiful face.

He looked towards the west with cold eyes.

"Go and see."

She pulled the reins and galloped westward.

She and Yun Ya worked day and night and rushed to Laoshan County, but learned that her second brother was seriously injured and unconscious. He was secretly taken out of the mountain by An Xia two days ago to seek help in Wan Du Valley.

They chased them all the way, but never saw them. The road was full of Eastern Border Soldiers and Netherworld Guards who were arresting people everywhere. It seemed that An Xia and the others were exposed, but fortunately, they were still arresting people everywhere, which meant that the second brother and the others had not been found yet.

The Jimie Forest is a few miles east of the outskirts.

A group of soldiers from the Eastern Territory wearing red iron armor surrounded An Xia and his companions.

"We only want the man in your hand. Hand him over to me and I will spare your life!" The general of the East Border soldiers riding on a tall horse, with dozens of soldiers behind him, walked around with swords in hand, looking at An Xia and the others with interest and advised.

An Xia looked at him coldly, leaned sideways slightly to block the person carrying Su Jingmo on his back, and clenched the two swords in his hands.

"Don't even think about it!"

The general's smile froze. "If you don't accept my toast, I'll punish you. Come on, I won't leave any of you alive!"

The soldiers responded and rushed forward, attacking An Xia and his men. Su Jingmo was firmly protected in the middle by An Xia and his men and was not hurt at all.

But they were outnumbered, and after being chased for two days, An Xia and his companions were already covered in wounds and exhausted, and were now barely holding on.

Three of the six people protecting Su Jingmo had fallen. Even An Xia was stabbed in the left shoulder.

Looking at another brother falling in front of him and the ruthless soldiers from the East Territory, An Xia felt unwilling to accept this!

They are about to reach the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, she can't die here, she has to send the Second Young Master in!

Another sword stabbed at Su Jingmo. An Xia held Su Jingmo with his injured left hand and stabbed another Eastern Border soldier with his backhand. He had no more strength to draw his sword, so he had to turn sideways and use his body to protect Su Jingmo. He closed his eyes and felt that he was going to die here today.

"Xiao——"

The sound of the arrow was like the cry of a phoenix in the sky, breaking through the air and piercing the chest of the soldier in front of An Xia. It passed through the chest and lodged itself in a tree not far away, going three feet deep into the wood.

The soldier fell down immediately, and two soldiers beside him fell down with him.

The sudden change startled everyone. The Eastern Border soldier immediately looked around cautiously.

One arrow shot through the chest with three crossbows. It was the Phoenix Cry Arrow!

The girl is here!

An Xia looked in the direction where the arrow came from in surprise.

"Xiao——"

Another arrow was fired, and the three men fell to the ground.

"Who! Come out here! How dare you shoot and kill the imperial soldiers!"

The general on horseback saw this and shouted harshly.

"Hey, soldiers of the imperial court? Are you... worthy?" An extremely cold female voice came from the woods.

She could see that although these people were wearing the uniforms of the Eastern Territory soldiers, they were not soldiers conscripted by the imperial court, but rather soldiers maintained by the Eastern Territory Governor's Office.

The general looked toward the direction where the voice came from.

Two slender women walked out of the woods.

He looked at the woman with arrows on her back and covered in a dark purple cloak with a vigilant look. Although she only showed half of her face, it was hard to hide the murderous aura and the hostility that permeated her body.

It was she who shot the arrow just now!

"Who are you!" he asked.

Su Jingning slowly raised her head, her almond-shaped eyes passed over him, and looked at An Xia, who was covered in wounds, and Su Jingmo, who was supported by her and unconscious. She pulled out a soft sword from her waist with her bare hands, and opened her red lips slightly:

"The people who came to take your dog's life!"

Before the voice fell, the figure disappeared from the spot.

The next moment, a sword as soft as a silver snake fell from the sky and pierced straight into the general's head.

"Bam—"

The body fell to the ground, stirring up a cloud of sand.
