Qiao Wenjuan’s face slightly contorted from anger. She pursed her lips and shifted slightly to the side as she fiercely glared at Qiao Mu.
In contrast to Wei Ziqing and her daughters’ clean appearance, she was dirty and tousled from head to toe. Even she could not tolerate herself.
They had encountered a terrifying monster on the way here. It squeezed her neck and nearly choked her to death. Thankfully, her mother got up the courage to strike the back of its head with a pole, and mother and daughter managed to have the opportunity to escape hand in hand.
It was thanks to that monster’s abnormally stiff and slow movements, despite its endless strength, that they were able to escape. Otherwise, how could they still be alive?

The outside world was turned upside down, and everyone was tiredly running for their lives, but this child was sleeping so soundly. She was truly one of a kind...
Qiao Zhongbang mounted the yellow-maned horse again while Qiao Zhongxing flicked the reins and agilely drove the carriage.
Through the fretwork window on the back of the cabin, Qiao Mu looked back and saw Ao Ye riding a horse toward them with Shaoyao in tow.
After sleeplessly turning and tossing for most of the night, Qiao Mu finally felt fatigue hit her, so she leaned against the cabin wall and closed her eyes, dozing off.
Qiao Wenjuan sneaked a glance at Qiao Mu and instantly realized that this girl was also imprudent. How could she sleep at a time like this? Her whole person was anxious to death, and her palms were still sweating.
Elderly Lady Qiao was getting on in years and was long exhausted from this eventful day, so after getting on the carriage, she had listlessly leaned against the cabin door and did not have the energy to say anything.
The carriage was enveloped in silence. Now and then, they could hear Qiao Zhongxing whipping the horse or yelling to urge the horse on.
In the heavy rain, a carriage carrying six people—young and old—safely left the village and headed for Xijiu City.
On the other side, the crown prince and his group conducted their journey at top speed.
As light started inching into the sky, Mo Lian and his group arrived at the north city gate of Guanlan City.
Hearing the sound of horse hooves, the normal civilians, who had started lining up bright and early to silently wait to enter the city to conduct business, automatically moved to the side.

This look stupefied them.
The handsome youth who was flying toward them on his horse with the wind was garbed in white robes that drifted ethereally in the air. His black hair was loosely tied with a light gold ribbon and draped down his waist.
His phoenix eyes wandered in its frame, shining like the starry night. He looked like an immortal who had entered the mortal world, elegant and beautiful.
What a handsome and graceful youth this was!
Yu Xiu quickly urged his horse forward with a pat and raised the token forged in gold high in the air at the first opportunity. His voice was solemn and spirited, “His Highness the Crown Prince has returned to the capital! Quickly open the gate to receive His Highness!!!”
However, the two minor soldiers on the city gate tower had already seen the incomer’s face clearly, and cold sweat covered them. Who would have expected this lord to return to the capital this early today? In their rush, they nearly rolled down from the tower. They simultaneously called out in panic, “Welcome back to the capital, Your Highness the Crown Prince! Welcome back to the capital, Your Highness the Crown Prince! Hurry, hurry! Quickly open the gate! Hurry!”
Urgent voices spread from the tower to the rest of the city gate one after another. Immediately, city guards rolled the heavy iron capstan. With the strength of 10-20 people, they pulled open the city gate difficultly centimeter by centimeter.
Crown Prince Mo looked back and calmly glanced at Yu Xiu before galloping into the city without a word. Apart from Yu Xiu, the youths behind him all followed the crown prince into the royal capital in a swarm.
