Travel through the heavens

General Ning Emei, holding a Bu-shaped halberd, took the lead and led dozens of brave and elite soldiers from the Feng-shaped camp, and quickly drove out of the reed marsh.

She reined in her horse and saluted Xu Fengnian. Ning Emei said in a clear voice, "My Lord, I have arranged for guards to escort Yu Youwei out of Qingzhou. All other members of the Feng Battalion will return to their teams."

Xu Fengnian nodded and said, "Count the people and horses."

"Yes." Ning Emei took the order, dismounted and counted the number of people. After a moment, she showed a look of shock and turned to report to Xu Fengnian: "Sir, three people are missing."

Xu Fengnian immediately asked, "Where did you get it?"

Ning Emei replied: "The number of people when we set out was correct. It should be the incident in the reed marsh."

Xu Fengnian looked out from the top of the carriage at the reed marsh. He saw the wind blowing the reeds, making them surge like waves. He could not find any clues at all.

Fang Muye said, "Don't worry about the Xu guy. The three of them have been captured."

Xu Fengnian looked at him in surprise: "How did you know?"

"Of course I saw it." Fang Muye flew up from the horse's back and landed next to Xu Fengnian. He touched his body with his leg and said, "Sit over to the side and make room for me."

Seeing Fang Muye's ethereal and freehand light Kung Fu, Xu Fengnian was completely shocked. He stared at Fang Muye with wide eyes, and subconsciously moved his butt to the side, with a tone full of disbelief: "No, Wen Hua, you really know martial arts."

"Didn't I tell you that I'm very strong now? You just didn't believe it." Fang Muye waved his sleeves and sat down next to Xu Fengnian. "But I can't blame you. When you said you were the prince of Beiliang, I didn't believe it either. We're even now."

Xu Fengnian couldn't help but roll his eyes, then asked in confusion: "Okay, even if you are very strong, but we have been here all the time, how did you see it?"

Fang Muye said calmly: "What the eyes cannot see, the mind can see."

"Use your divine power to see?" Xu Fengnian was even more puzzled.

But the old sword god Li Chungang, who was sharpening a wooden sword in the carriage, paused slightly when he heard this, and a trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes.

"Your martial arts skills are too low, and you won't understand even if I tell you." Fang Muye gently patted Xu Fengnian's shoulder and raised his chin in one direction: "Anyway, the three soldiers of the Feng Camp and the people who captured them are all over there."

In the direction that Fang Muye pointed, several people were standing quietly in the reed marsh about a hundred feet away from the central area.

One of them was a middle-aged man, dressed in coarse cloth, with an unattractive appearance, dark skin, and a dull expression, like a country farmer, but with a golden soft sword wrapped around his waist.

The other two were a young man in a green robe who looked like a scholar, holding a thin bamboo pole in his hand. Behind him stood a slender figure, carrying a long sword that was already full of sword spirit even without being unsheathed. She closed her eyes, and although her face was plain, her edges and corners were particularly clear, and there was a murderous heroism between her eyebrows.

The last group was led by a young man in gorgeous clothes. Although he looked sloppy, his eyes revealed a kind of cunning and ambition. Behind him stood four red-armored generals who had been lost in the martial arts world for a long time. They were all wearing simple and heavy armor, and their faces were covered with thick masks, like divine soldiers. Three of them, each of them was dragging an elite soldier from the Phoenix Camp in their hands.

The man in green shirt frowned and said uncertainly, "That person seems to have discovered us."

"Impossible." The man in fancy clothes shook his head. "Prince Jing'an has already checked the origins of that man. He is just a humble knight whom Xu Fengnian met on his last 3,000-mile journey. This time he just happened to meet Xu Fengnian in the city of Fan. He doesn't know any martial arts at all, so there is no need to worry about him at all."

The middle-aged man said, "Even if he is not a concern, Xu Fengnian still has a lot of people on his side. What about the cavalry of King Jing'an? When will they arrive?"

"Senior, please wait a little longer." The man in fancy clothes murmured, his tone full of helplessness.

The central area of ​​the reed marsh.

"I'll take people to rescue them." Ning Emei glanced into the distance and was about to turn around and leave.

Fang Muye stopped him and said, "General Ning, if you don't want to kill more soldiers from the Phoenix Camp, I advise you not to go."

"Master Wen, the Feng Camp cannot abandon our companions." Ning Emei said in a firm tone.

Fang Muye nodded: "General Ning, I'm not asking you to abandon your companions, but since the enemy captured them instead of killing them, they naturally want to use them as bait. Be patient and wait, the enemy will send the three of them to you on their own."

"Relax, with Li Jianshen and I here, nothing will happen." Fang Muye seemed to be talking to Ning Emei, but also to other people.

The blue bird suddenly said, "Here I come."

Everyone also heard the sound of wheels running. They looked in the direction of the sound and saw a lone carriage driving out from the reed marsh along a path and driving straight in front of Xu Fengnian's carriage. After the coachman stopped the carriage, he jumped off the carriage and ran away without saying a word.

After a while, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a beautiful woman with a graceful figure, holding a sandalwood box in her hand, walked out with her waist bent, and stood on the carriage with her graceful posture.

It was Princess Jing'an, Pei Nanwei.

"Mr. Xu, your old lover is here." Fang Muye touched Xu Fengnian and teased in a low voice.

"Don't talk nonsense, that's my elder." Xu Fengnian retorted, then jumped off the carriage and slowly walked to the front of the carriage. Like a playboy, he stared at Pei Nanwei's wrist for a long time before asking, "Where is the pearl that your nephew gave to you? Why aren't you wearing it?"

Pei Nanwei opened the sandalwood box, took out a small box from it, handed it to Xu Fengnian, and said softly: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. I will return the bracelet to you."

Xu Fengnian took it and took out the bracelet from the box. He asked in confusion, "Why did you return it? Don't you like it?"

Pei Nanwei said in a very polite tone: "Please forgive me, Your Highness."

"If you don't like it, then forget it." Xu Fengnian said as he threw the box and bracelet away: "Uncle Wang, do you have anything to say?"

Pei Nanwei took out a piece of letter from the sandalwood box and handed it to Xu Fengnian: "This is from him."

Xu Fengnian took the letter, pulled out the secret letter inside, opened it and saw only four short words on it.

"Sending nephew a thousand miles away, just four words. Uncle Wang didn't say anything else?" Xu Fengnian frowned and looked at Pei Nanwei, trying to see something from her eyes, but unfortunately he didn't find any clues.

Pei Nanwei replied calmly: "He only asked me to give you the letter and didn't say anything else. Perhaps he knew you were leaving Qingzhou, and these four words were a farewell to you."

Xu Fengnian shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, these four words have two meanings, but neither of them means seeing you off."

"Two meanings?" Pei Nanwei really seemed to not understand.

Xu Fengnian smiled and said, "The first level is easy to explain. A thousand miles down is the Nine Springs. Uncle Wang is trying to send me to the Yellow Springs."

"The letter has been delivered, and I'm returning the bracelet. Please do as you please, Prince. I'll take my leave first." Pei Nanwei did not respond. He said calmly, bent down and was about to get into the carriage.

Xu Fengnian grabbed her wrist and said without letting her refuse: "Aunt, please get off the car and have a chat."

Pei Nanwei, who had always been elegant and graceful, blushed. While struggling, he bit his lip and said in a deep voice, "Prince, please respect yourself."

Xu Fengnian didn't have the patience or mood to play tricks on the woman in front of him, so he got straight to the point and asked, "Aunt, do you think you can still leave?"

The Princess Jing'an seemed to be completely unaware that she was in danger, and the one who was ruthlessly plotting against her was the Prince Jing'an, who was always grateful to her for being with her for a lifetime.

Pei Nanwei was stunned for a moment, looked around, and gradually gave up struggling.

Xu Fengnian released her wrist, stepped back, raised his arms horizontally, and said again: "Aunt, please get out of the car."

Pei Nanwei finally compromised, put down the sandalwood box, supported Xu Fengnian's arm and jumped out of the car, and asked helplessly: "Sir, tell me, what do you want to talk about?"

Xu Fengnian was about to say something, but Ning Emei suddenly shouted, "It's one of ours."

He turned around and saw, as expected, three Fu generals in red armor, dragging three unconscious soldiers from the Feng camp out of the reed marsh. After pausing for a few breaths, they turned around and returned to the reed marsh.

At this moment, a plain wooden sword cut through the sky and instantly arrived in front of the three red-armored generals, then circled around their necks.

The next moment, three helmeted heads fell down, and three talismans knocked the red-armored man to the ground.
