Wang Mu took the token and said, "Okay, I've got it. Thank you."

The other party was a powerful figure who had fought against several elders and even revealed that Rebden had become a Quasi-Saint level expert in the empire. He was already a household name in the palace and the imperial city. The fact that the powerful figure thanked him made the leader feel flattered. At this moment, he quickly bowed and said, "I dare not."

Afterwards, he left two horses, some food and water with his guards, and before leaving, he walked up to Lixue and said, "Your Highness, the Holy Empire and the Divine Phoenix Camp are searching for you everywhere."

Li Xue wasn't too surprised after hearing this. She didn't know how much time had passed, and thinking about how the Emperor had deliberately acted as if nothing had happened, she knew his worries. So she said calmly, "Alright, I understand. Where did you meet them?"

"Your Highness, these past few days, our men have encountered two princes who came looking for us, as well as members of the Divine Phoenix Camp, on the border of the Empire."

“We are alright now. Please send a message to them, tell them I am safe and sound, and ask them to meet us at the oasis ahead.”

"Yes, Your Royal Highness."

"Thank you."

The leader said, "If Your Highness has nothing else, we'll be taking our leave."

"it is good."

It turns out that not many people knew that Li Xue had gone out with Wang Mu. Fortunately, Wan'er was by her side at the time and went to Wang Mu's residence with the princess, whereupon she learned that His Highness must have gone with the Emperor.

But after more than ten days, when the two still hadn't returned, she became anxious and hurriedly went to ask the two princes for help.

Upon hearing this, Li Fei and Li Zhijie became even more anxious and sent people to search everywhere, focusing on the west.

However, at the beginning, no one would have imagined that the emperor and princess would enter the desert and go to the Kensha Empire.

Later, their whereabouts were found in the desert, and not long after, news came that the emperor and princess had fallen into quicksand.

The two princes and Wan'er were burning with anxiety, and the Divine Phoenix Camp searched the desert day and night. Fortunately, all of this happened only a few days ago.

Now, once all the palace guards had left, Wang Mu finally felt relieved.

"The Emperor."

"It's alright now." Wang Mu kept looking in the direction the guards had left.

"let's go."

"it is good."

After Wang Mu finished speaking, Fu Lixue mounted her horse, and then he mounted his own. The two smiled at each other.

With their newfound strength, they were much faster than before. After three days of walking, they arrived at the Rauldo Oasis on the morning of the fourth day.

As they entered the oasis, a group of people came to greet them, leading dozens of wooden cages filled with ragged slaves.

The two stepped aside to let the other pass. Although the escorts saw that Li Xue was beautiful, they knew that the woman in front of them was not simple and dared not make any moves.

Not only the guards, but even the slaves turned their heads to look, for they hadn't seen such a beautiful woman in a long time.

One of them, who looked about thirteen or fourteen years old, had an honest and simple appearance.

Wang Mu, upon seeing this by chance, was taken aback. He turned to look at Li Xue, pointed at the person, and whispered, "Doesn't he look like someone else?"

Lixue glanced at the finger and it seemed correct. She tried to remember, and suddenly, she remembered and blurted out, "Vigor, that bull."

Wang Mu suddenly remembered, and upon closer inspection of the boy, he noticed a thin rope around his neck with something tied to it, which was mostly exposed by his thin, tattered clothes.

He also had something similar in his hand, which Vig had given him before he died.

Without thinking twice, he rushed forward, only to be stopped by several guards.

"What do you want to do?" one of the guards whispered a reprimand.

This person knew that there was a woman of extraordinary status beside the man in front of him, so there was no great anger in his tone.

At this moment, Li Xue stepped forward, about to reveal her identity, but unexpectedly Wang Mu took out the token given to him by the palace guards earlier.

The escort was taken aback, but he didn't recognize it. However, he knew that what he saw was extraordinary, so he turned to look behind him.

The caravan leader, Wesedo, was from the Kensha Empire. He had bought a batch of fine slaves from elsewhere, hoping to get a good price. He had heard that during the previous palace coup, countless people had died in the capital, with slaves and servants, as well as many guards, being among the most killed or wounded.

Seeing his guards blocking a young man, he was about to lose his temper, but when he saw what the man was holding, his expression suddenly changed and he panicked. His men didn't recognize it, but he recognized what it was.

He rushed over and bowed deeply, looking extremely nervous. "Sir, what are your orders?"

Upon seeing this, his men dared not stand in his way any longer. They hurriedly knelt on one knee and said in unison, "We deserve to die."

Wang Mu looked at the newcomer and knew that the man recognized the object in his hand, so he pointed to a cage and said, "I want to see it."

Wisedo dared not utter a word of dissent. He couldn't afford to offend the man before him, so he bowed and said, "Please do as you please, sir."

Wang Mu walked up to the wooden cage and saw that the boy in front of him was not afraid. He grabbed the boy's thin rope and looked closely at the thing tied to it. It was indeed the same.

"I want this person."

Wisedo hesitated for a moment, then Wang Mu said angrily, "I'll write a note, and you can go to the palace to find Princess Daisy."

This startled Wesedo greatly, as he was surprised to find that the young man recognized Princess Daisy, the future empress of the empire.

He quickly begged for mercy, saying, "I wouldn't dare, please take it, sir."

He then sternly ordered his men, "Open it now and take the person out."

Several people nearby quickly lifted the person out and brought him to them.

Wang Mu stepped forward and asked, "What's your name?"

The boy's name was De'ao. At this moment, he did not speak, but just looked at the person in front of him.

Wisedo looked angrily at the people beside him, and one of them immediately said, "Sir, his name is De'ao."

Wang Mu nodded, then said to Wesedo, "Remove his shackles and bracelets; he's no longer a slave."

Wisedo dared not disobey and quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, sir."

One of his men quickly removed the shackles and slave insignia from De'ao's hands and feet.

Wang Mu walked up to Li Xue, who understood and took out a pen and paper to write a few lines. He took the paper and went back to give it to Wesedo, saying, "Give this to Princess Daisy, and she will give you the reward you deserve."

Wisedo was secretly delighted, but said aloud, "I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare."

Both hands had already received the letter from the other party.

"Alright, you can leave now," Wang Mu said coldly.

Wisedo dared not linger. "Yes, sir."

After he finished speaking, he glared at his men, who hurriedly drove the carriage away. Before long, all of them had left the oasis.

Seeing that everyone had left, Wang Mu turned around and looked at De'ao.

At this moment, De'ao asked, "Who are you, and why did you save me?"

Wang Mu smiled and took out an item.

Seeing that it was identical to the one on his own, De'ao was visibly excited. "How did you get this?"

Lixue stepped forward and looked at the boy. He was short and stocky, and although he seemed a bit simple-minded, he didn't look stupid.
