Both worlds are like dreams

After Wei Yunzhou and Xu Yao knocked down most of the remaining people, the enemy began to retreat. They did not chase them, so they turned around and saw two people hugging each other.

Xu Yao didn't say anything, but his expression under the mask was not very good.

As for Wei Yunzhou, he rolled his eyes, coughed, and asked, could he be more low-key in front of everyone?

Gu Qinglan reacted first, looking at the eyes around him with an unnatural expression, "Miss Xuehuang, can you let me go first?"

Xue Huang didn't care what he said, she was afraid it was all a dream, but at this moment his heartbeat was so clear that she was sure that he really came to see her.

Wei Yunzhou couldn't bear to watch it any longer, so he grabbed Xue Huang's neck and pulled her away, saying coldly, "I'll hug her when we get back, but let's get on with our journey first."

Xue Huang was pulled away, and she saw that Gu Qinglan was a little embarrassed. Her brother Qinglan was still as shy as before. She smiled and looked at everyone, "I didn't expect you to come to support Muhua City first."

"Are you hurt?" Gu Qinglan asked with concern.

Xue Huang shook her head, "It's just that I consumed too much internal energy, it's no big deal. This place is not a safe place, let's leave first." This place is still very close to Jiuxiao City. If Duan Feng sends more people to chase them, it may be difficult to deal with.

Wei Yunzhou asked someone to bring her a horse, and they set off again.

The Jiuxiao City army did not chase after them, and Xue Huang breathed a sigh of relief.

The horses that Gu Qinglan and his companions brought were all top-quality horses, so they caught up with Hua Yu and his companions when it got dark.

Their horses were inferior to begin with, and they were exhausted after carrying the goods for less than a hundred miles. The speed of the group was extremely slow, but fortunately they were riding high-quality horses when they came, so they could continue to move forward after changing horses. However, the speed was obviously reduced.

After catching up with them, everyone stopped to rest. Since the day they set out, they only slept for two hours a day, and the rest of the time was almost all spent on the journey.

No wonder Xue Huang felt that they looked a little unwell. It turned out that they had been having a harder time than they had been along the way.

She quickly asked everyone to stop and rest, while Zhan Hui and his companions, who still had enough energy, continued to pull the goods using the horses brought by Gu Qinglan and his companions.

Hua Yu stayed and was worried about Xue Huang all the way.

When Hua Yu saw that she was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief. Then, seeing that Wei Yunzhou was also there, he said with a cold face, "Second Senior Brother, you came at the right time. Take good care of this girl. She is really outrageous and has reached the point of lawlessness. She actually stopped the army of hundreds of people from Jiuxiao City by herself."

Wei Yunzhou had roughly guessed what had happened, so after hearing what Hua Yu said, he immediately glared at Xue Huang, saying that after traveling with Rong Yu for three years, she was still so bold.

Seeing that Wei Yunzhou and Hua Yu were both looking at her with unhappy faces, Xue Huang immediately covered her chest and said, "Second Uncle, Aunt, I'm injured."

Seeing her face turn pale, Hua Yu immediately softened his heart and helped her sit down. He thought that she must have gone through a bloody battle to stop the pursuers alone, so he asked with concern, "Where are you hurt?"

"It's just that I don't have enough internal energy." Xue Huang said with a smile.

Hua Yu handed her the water and said, "Don't do this next time."

Xue Huang nodded, looked at Wei Yunzhou who still had a cold face, and immediately apologized, "Second Uncle, I was wrong. But there are reasons for everything!"

"Really?" Wei Yunzhou looked at her coldly, "You always have a reason."

Xue Huang smiled. After not seeing her for three years, her uncle seemed more humane than before. "Uncle, you'll have plenty of time to scold me when we get back to Muhua City. Go and have a rest first."

Wei Yunzhou didn't say anything else. He sat cross-legged under the tree and began to rest.

Hua Yu told Xue Huang to sit down and rest, and then took the dry food and boiled hot water to distribute to others. But when she turned around, she saw Xue Huang taking the food to Gu Qinglan who was still busy. As an experienced person, she saw the friendship between the two at a glance, so she didn't say anything and continued to be busy.

Xue Huang came to Gu Qinglan and said, "Brother Qinglan, you should take a rest first."

"Okay." Gu Qinglan took the water she handed over and sat down under the tree with her.

Xue Huang looked at the dark circles under his eyes, her eyes full of heartache, "You've worked hard along the way."

Gu Qinglan smiled and said, "It's okay. I feel relieved to see that you are okay."

"You just feel relieved when you see me?" Xue Huang said with a smile. "It's been three years. Have you ever thought about me?"

Gu Qinglan looked at her lively eyes and beautiful face. He felt more than at ease, and more than just thought about it. He had a thousand words to say, but he didn't know where to start. For three years, he had always been concerned about her. Did she also worry about him?

"Miss Xuehuang, seeing you not only makes me feel relieved, but also happy. I... have always missed you." Gu Qinglan said seriously.

The smile in Xue Huang's eyes became brighter and brighter. She had a lot to tell him, but she knew that this was not the time to express her feelings to each other, so she said, "I understand. You should have a good rest first. We have to rush back to Muhua City early tomorrow morning."

Gu Qinglan knew that she was still injured, so he said no more, "You should also have a good rest."

Xue Huang nodded, and after seeing him fall asleep, she went to get a piece of clothing, and when she came back, she ran into Xu Yao. He seemed to have something to say to her, so Xue Huang covered Gu Qinglan with the clothing she had brought, and then came to Xu Yao's side.

"I'm surprised they're here, but you surprise me even more." Xue Huang handed him the water and sat down by the fire.

"This is the deal between Wei Yunzhou and me."

Xue Huang looked at him speechlessly, "Brother, can't you say something righteous?"

Xu Yao was a little dazed by her word "big brother" and didn't say anything.

"The plague in Muhua City is extremely dangerous. What kind of deal is worth taking such a big risk to bring your old Beiyuan people here?"

"It has nothing to do with you." Xu Yao said coldly.

"Could it be that you have been bribed by my second uncle? It has been three years, and Shen Conghe and Mo Yunchen are still alive and well. Have you changed your strategy and started to cooperate with my second uncle and others?"

Xu Yao twitched his lips, "You talk too much nonsense. I don't need you to take care of what I have to do."

Xue Huang looked at him. Although he was still wearing a scary mask, it seemed that after three years, he no longer looked as bitter and vengeful as before and only cared about revenge.

"No matter what, I am still very grateful that you can help me." Xue Huang said with a smile. "So, if you encounter any life-or-death dilemma in the future, I will definitely help you. I will never refuse."

Xu Yao refused without thinking: "No need."

Xue Huang choked, said "Whether you need it or not" and left.

Xu Yao, however, rarely curled the corners of his mouth, as if he was smiling.
