, "Greetings to the Spirit Maiden."An Xuetang pointed to the chair opposite her, "Have a seat and talk."This Western Regions man was very well-mannered and respectful. To him, An Xuetang was a divine...Xi Zi Ke'er's subordinate stopped in her tracks, slowly turned around, and bowed again, "Young Master Han, is there anything else you require"

Bai Han stared at him, his voice gloomy, "Are you mocking me"

His heart skipped a beat, but he maintained his composure on the surface. He slowly raised his head, a hint of confusion in his eyes, "What do you mean by that, Young Master Han"

Bai Han didn't answer, but instead asked, "How many days have we been gone"

"Two days."

Bai Han's lips curled into a meaningful, shallow smile. "Yes, we have been gone for two days, yet we haven't seen the figure of the Princess of Beijang and the Mistress of Fenggu. What do you say... what is going on"

Xi Zi Ke'er's subordinate knew it well but pretended to ask, "Is Young Master Han thinking we are walking too slowly We are human after all. Even if we could keep going without rest, the horses cannot. If we keep rushing like this without resting, our horses will not be able to bear it."

Bai Han saw that he was still acting dumb even now, his sharp eyes narrowed slightly. Without a word, he raised his hand. A silver needle appeared in his grasp at some point and flew out swiftly.

Xizi Ke'er's subordinates' faces changed, they suddenly turned sideways to dodge.

"...."

Bai Han only then realized that the subordinate left behind by Xizi Ke'er was actually quite skilled.

At this moment, he turned his head to look at the followers of Bai Guang Palace, giving them a subtle glance.

Then, the disciples of Bai Guang Palace immediately rushed forward and engaged in a fierce battle with several of Xi Zi Ke'er's followers.

Even Bai Han, who was usually naive, could now tell that he had been tricked by Xi Zi Ke'er.

Xizi Ke'er had never considered cooperating with him.

...but instead deliberately sent these people to mislead him, deliberately delay him, and even lead him in the other direction. ...

...which made it impossible for him to catch up with An Xue Tang and Feng Ming. ...

At this thought, Bai Han's entire face turned an eerie and terrifying shade of darkness.

He clenched his fists, his scarlet eyes fixed on the men under Xizi Ke'er's command. After a moment, he drew his sword and leaped into the air.

However, the few subordinates Xizi Ke'er sent were highly skilled in martial arts. In a one-on-one fight, they weren't necessarily worse than Bai Han's men.

Moreover, Bai Han is skilled at using poison, but his martial arts are not particularly outstanding.

So, killing Xizi'er and her few subordinates in a short period of time would be somewhat difficult.

Both sides fought for half an hour, each suffering serious injuries.

During this time, Bai Han tried to use poison, but perhaps Xi Zi Ke'er had been warned in advance, so her several subordinates were very cautious and did not allow Bai Han's plan to succeed.

Bai Han had released quite a few poisons, but none of them were inhaled by them, so he remained clear-headed.

But, in this half hour, they were also seriously injured. If they didn't leave soon, I'm afraid they would die here today.

And what's even more coincidental is that there was a hidden operative from the Qingyun Pavilion in this very inn.

When the two sides clashed, Qingyun Pavilion's men already knew what was going on.

So, seeing Xi Zi Ke'er's men were losing the fight, he secretly used silver needles to help them defeat a lot of Bai Guang Gong disciples.

With the help of others, Xizi Ke'er and her men finally found an opportunity to retreat.

In a few short moments, West Sister Can'er’s several underlings had vanished without a trace.

Bai Han held a sword in one hand, and with a single slash, he split the door in half.

And the subordinate of Qingyun Pavilion also knew that staying here would definitely expose himself, so he hurriedly withdrew.

Moreover, the people from Bai Guang Gong have already arrived here. He needs to find a way to send this message to their palace master and the Princess of Bei Jiang as soon as possible.

After limping out of the inn, Xizi Ke'er and her several subordinates ran a considerable distance in one breath. After a while, they made sure that no one from Bai Guang Gong had followed them before stopping to catch their breath.

Looking at the wounds on everyone, the leader still ordered, “Return to the capital city quickly and inform His Highness of this.”

Those few subordinates listen to his meaning won't together with them return capital city

Then he asked, "Big brother, what about you With such serious injuries, where are you going instead of returning to the capital"

"The people from Bai Guang Palace have already chased us here. I need to go tell the Princess of Bei Jiang now so she doesn't fall into an ambush set by them."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at the sky. "Alright, everyone, split up and move quickly."

Everyone bowed, "Yes."

......

After Bai Han had vented his anger, he ordered people to chase after him.

He knew he might not catch up, but these people were badly injured and there would surely be bloodstains along the way.

As long as you find a lead, it won't be difficult to figure out where they went.

Moreover, he speculated that the group would split into several paths. One group would return to Ducheng and report to Xizi Ke'er about the details of the situation, while another might go to inform An Xuetang and Feng Ming et al.

So, as long as he knows which direction they are each going in, his people can follow the clues to find them.

Once they crossed into the borders of Xiliang, his subordinates knew which direction An Xue Tang and Feng Ming had gone.

But they only knew that after the two men left from Xiliang's capital city, they went in this direction, and their specific destination was not found out.

This is also the reason why he wants to cooperate with Xizi Ke'er.

I didn't expect him to be tricked by Xizi Ke'er.

Xizi Ke'er and her men brought him here, wanting to put as much distance between them and An Xue Tang and the others as possible.

It would still take some effort to find An Xue Tang now.

Thinking of this, Bai Han gritted his teeth, his eyes bloodshot, "Chase them! We must find their whereabouts as soon as possible."

Everyone's expression was grave, and they all bowed their hands in unison, "Yes."

......

As expected, Han Yun was right. The men under Xizi Ke'er were injured, so if you looked carefully enough on their escape route, you could definitely find some bloodstains.

Based on these bloodstains, one can tell which direction they fled.

As expected, these people indeed split into two groups.

Needless to say, the group going back to the capital city were informing Xizi Ke'er. And the other direction, those people should be informing An Xuetang.

Staring at the bloodstains on the ground, Bai Han fell silent for a moment. His sharp eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked in a certain direction. "An Xue Tang and the others should be over here. Everyone, follow me!"

"I must find An Xuetang within the shortest possible time, or else the injuries on the Palace Master will not be able to hold."

With the life of their palace master at stake, none of the Bai Guang Palace disciples dared to relax. They all solemnly responded and immediately rushed in this direction, hot on his heels.

......

The next morning

An Xuetang still didn't know that Bai Guangguan's people had already shaken off Xi Zi Ke'er's subordinates.

After she got up, she looked at Mo Yunjing beside her. As long as he was by her side, she felt an unusual sense of contentment.

She stared at Mo Yunjing for a moment, a satisfied smile curving her lips. She carefully pressed a kiss to his lips and then got up and went to the kitchen.. We should elevate Xi Zi Ke'er to that position, securing her reign as the Empress of Xiliang.But at this moment, An Xuetang suddenly thought of something. She frowned slightly and shook her head.
