When An Zheng woke up, he was in a swaying carriage. When he opened his eyes, he couldn't help but let out a groan in pain. Every part of his body was in pain, as if someone had used a iron bar to break all of his bones.

"I'm finally awake."

In a daze, An Zheng heard Du Shoushou's voice.

An Zheng's vision was still blurry, there was only a gap in front of him. Then, he heard Qu Liuxi's voice. "Don't be in such a hurry to open your eyes, your eyes are swollen."

Old Huo laughed at the side: "I knew it, this guy's luck is really weird. He doesn't make sense, and he doesn't make sense."

Qu Liuxi said: "Before I treated him, there was already a powerful medicinal energy healing his injuries. I am only following the help of the medicinal strength. This is definitely not some form of luck, but his body already has the medicinal strength to save him. "It's just that it's strange that the medicinal strength is still being adjusted automatically. It's very minute. It's a change made according to his injuries."

Old Huo laughed and shook his head, "Destiny... You don't understand, you don't understand. "

Qu Liuxi also laughed. She, who had already endured for three days and two nights, looked so haggard, but that smile was like a spring breeze blowing.

"I don't understand, I don't understand, alright? Gramps, you should go to sleep as well. It's been a long time since you've had a good rest."

Old Huo said: "It's better if you go to sleep. You haven't even eaten a single mouthful of food for three days and two nights."

Qu Liuxi smoothed out the Hair's forehead and said softly: "I'm fine. It's been three days since I changed the medicine for its external injuries. The effects of the previous medicine have already passed."

Hearing these words, An Zheng wanted to cry.

He opened his mouth, but could not utter a single syllable.

"Don't talk."

Du Shoushou said from the side, "Xiao Liu'er said that you don't have a single good thing on you. Although you managed to block Zhen Zhuangbi's attack, your body was still unable to withstand the attack. Dozens of your bones are broken and your internal organs are damaged. "Right now, your face is even bigger than mine. Your eyes are as swollen as a bun."

An Zheng grinned, looking like he was smiling.

"You're a madman."

Du Shoushou said: "Old Huo said, you may be someone that has never been seen before. No one had ever dared to challenge the experts of Xumi Stage in the Quintet realm. He said luck, but I don't know what luck is. In any case, other than a miracle having happened due to luck, Old Huo didn't think of how you could have killed Zhen Zhuangbi. However, this is also good. You were previously so unlucky that you were always bullied by others. However, one day, you suddenly went into a different world and everything was just good luck ? "Hahahaha."

Du Shoushou laughed out loud: "Seeing your face swollen like this, I know that my smile isn't too good, but I still can't help it ?"

Qu Liuxi: "Scram back to your carriage and sleep."

The fatty shook his head repeatedly, "Don't, don't, don't. I'm bored on the carriage by myself, Xiao Qidao just fell asleep, and when I went back, he was awake again. "I promise I won't laugh ?"

Old Huo was silent for a while and then said: "An Zheng, there is something I want to discuss with you. I know you probably felt that you owe Qiu Changchen something, but you didn't save him at that time ? But you can't save them. When you attacked at that time, you would only sacrifice your life for Du Shoushou and the others. If you say you want to go to the Great Yan, I will not oppose it. But I want to advise you... Now was not the time. If you are willing to listen to me, then we will find a safe place where you can focus on cultivating. "

"Wait three years. Three years later, Xiao Qidao is eight years old. With his innate talent, an eight-year-old cultivation level was more than enough to deal with normal dangers. You guys have also improved, so I feel more at ease going to Fanggu City. Some people said that the Fantasy Eternal Residence City was the most vicious place in the world, but the viciousness of the Fantasy Eternal Residence City was shown on the surface. A place like the Fanggu City was hiding in the dark. You are all still young and your strength is still weak. If you are not careful, you may be swept into some quagmire and be unable to extricate yourselves.

An Zheng nodded slightly, but was unable to speak.

After killing Zhen Zhuangbi, An Zheng calmed down a lot.

In fact, although he had no choice but to go and kill Zhen Zhuangbi, it was not the best choice. He knew that he had a few divine instrument on him, but only one of them could unleash its power. If he was calm enough, he would pretend that he didn't know anything, and then, he would bring everyone away from the Fantasy Eternal Residence City at night. Zhen Zhuangbi would definitely not let them live, but it was still a good idea for An Zheng to go all out and kill them.

Even if he were to temporarily hide inside the Heaven Defying Seal s and not be able to get out, Zhen Zhuangbi could only relax his guard after searching for a while.

Impulse, until now, was a habit that An Zheng had never been able to fix, or perhaps this was something within his nature. Especially for his friends, he was always more impulsive. For example, when he heard that the Great Western Prince had met with danger in Mount Cangman, he did not hesitate at all.

If not for this, he wouldn't have been ambushed in the Mount Cangman without a single helper. His friends knew him, his enemies knew him, and sometimes there was no distinction between enemies and friends.

When An Zheng heard the Old Huo's words, he told himself not to be rash. That's right, before Qiu Changchen died, she still held some expectations for him, and this expectation couldn't be disappointed. However, if he wanted to live up to his expectations, the only way was to become stronger.

The four carriages meandered along the road, and Mount Cangman was no longer visible behind them.

By the tenth day, An Zheng could already move about on his own. This was a difficult phenomenon to explain for Qu Liuxi. Given how severely injured he was, he should have to lie in bed for at least three months.

An Zheng was not worried about the people from the Academy taking revenge, but when they killed Zhen Zhuangbi, he exposed too many magical equipment, so the people in Fantasy Eternal Residence City were unavoidably greedy. The Old Huo had the right to bring everyone and leave in the middle of the night. The one who brought everyone to safely avoid the first group of pursuers was not Old Huo, but Gu Qianye.

This weird Ancient Hunt Clan girl had followed them out of the Mount Cangman, leaving the place where their Ancient Hunt Clan had lived for generations. Perhaps it was related to An Zheng, or perhaps it was for some other reason.

Old Huo had experience, but not much Jianghu experience. Gu Qianye, on the other hand, had a rich jungle survival skill. She led everyone into the jungle, avoided the pursuers' search from the bottom of the water, and then hid in the cave for a long time. After that, he sent people back to the Ancient Hunt Clan to find a few carriages, and finally bypassed the Fantasy Eternal Residence City and headed south. The Great Yan was in the northwest, in the south was the Zhao Kingdom's territory.

The Yan Kingdom was on the border with the Zhao Kingdom, and they were friendly for generations, so they were one of the rare sixteen kingdoms where there had never been a war before. Right now, the Great Yan's empress dowager was from the Zhao Kingdom Royal Family.

After another day of walking, a large lake appeared in front of them. The locals called this lake Xiushui Lake, with a circumference of a hundred miles. There were some fishermen by the lakeside of Xiushui Lake. They had simple natures. In the distance, there were a few small mountains. They were not towering, but they had a sense of wilderness.

The four carriages stopped by the lake, the rays of the setting sun shining down on the lake, the sight was breathtaking. The surface of the lake was as tranquil as a mirror. Looking at the beautiful scene from afar, it once again entered one's mind, giving one the thought of staying here forever and not leaving.

Du Shoushou supported An Zheng down from the carriage, and then they sat down to rest on the grassy slope by the lake.

"Good Lord still hasn't woken up?"

An Zheng asked.

Du Shoushou acknowledged, "Ever since you killed Zhen Zhuangbi, he had fainted. It had already been half a month, and there were still no signs of him waking up. Xiao Liu'er had seen it and said that Good Lord was fine. She must have used all her strength, so she needed time to recover. However, he had been recovering for too long. He had been sleeping like that the entire time. You say it's strange, but it's not strange at all. When you kill Zhen Zhuangbi, when he used all his strength, was it to cheer you on? "

An Zheng was unable to explain, but he knew very well that if not for Good Lord's miraculous attack, he would have already died in Zhen Zhuangbi's hands.

Actually, it wasn't just Good Lord. An Zheng realized that his blood nurturing bead bracelet was also in a comatose state.

Maybe because the injury was too heavy, the blood nurturing bead bracelet was unable to continue to absorb blood energy from An Zheng's body. Instead, it had to provide nourishment for the medicinal qi, so it also fell into a dormant state. Especially the third pearl, the word 'fish' seemed especially faint, as if it could disappear at any time.

As for the enchantment cloth, it had been by Good Lord's side the entire time, and had not made a single sound.

Before An Zheng fainted, he saw the enchantment cloth start a massacre. If not for the enchantment cloth's sudden display of power, the spectating disciples of the academy could have easily killed An Zheng and taken away all his artifacts.

"It's like a dream."

Du Shoushou lay back down, lying on the grassy slope as he watched the sunset that was not the least bit dazzling in the slightest, "I have thought about leaving Fantasy Eternal Residence City countless of times before. However, he did not expect to leave so soon. Thinking back to the days he had lived in that place, he actually felt nostalgic and reluctant to part with her. But I know that if I hadn't changed the strength of Fantasy Eternal Residence City, I wouldn't have returned. "

"That is a place filled with evil. When I have the strength, I will definitely return and let the Fantasy Eternal Residence City turn into another form."

He turned his head to the side and looked at An Zheng: "Speaking of which, that place is really beautiful. If everyone is kind and kind, then it's really a good place to live in seclusion."

An Zheng said: "Then I will wait for your success and reputation, and go back to become the city lord."

Du Shoushou nodded: "Alright, it's settled then."

An Tan saw that Gu Qian Ye was standing by the lake with his arms crossed as he looked at the lake's surface. It seemed a little cold. Qu Liuxi took a piece of clothing and put it on for her. This kind girl, after living with Gu Qian Ye for half a month, she didn't show any rejection. Perhaps inside Qu Liuxi's heart was a Buddha, a good thought that would never change. It was the same for both things and people.

Gu Qianye smiled at her and then took her arm. The two of them stood by the lake to look at the scenery and the two of them had a scenery that was even more beautiful than a lake.

"Why did that girl follow us as well?"

Du Shoushou had never understood.

An Zheng shook his head, "Maybe it's because of those scales."

Du Shoushou said seriously: "But when she looks at you, how does she explain that perverted look?"

An Zheng, "Scram ?"

"Right."

Du Shoushou suddenly asked: "Where did that fellow Zhong Jiuge go? You said that it was a long time since you asked him to help you find something. If he doesn't find us when he comes back, he might go crazy. "

An Zheng shook his head: "He won't go crazy, he knows better than anyone else how to survive in this martial arts world. Although the methods of the people from the Thousand Gates are not on par with those of the others, they are all practical techniques. "

"Where did he go?"

Du Shoushou asked.

An Zheng replied, "Da Xi."

Du Shoushou asked again: What did I help you find?

An Zheng was silent for a moment, then replied: "To find hope."

Du Shoushou did not understand, and it was impossible for him to understand.

"Where are we going?"

Du Shoushou asked his last question.

"In Zhao Kingdom, there is a border city called Dushi City. It is a small city with a sparse population, but it has the most elite soldiers of the Zhao Kingdom stationed there. No matter how fierce the people of the Fantasy Eternal Residence City were, they would not dare to cause trouble in Xu City. Let's go live in Dou Xu City for three years first, then go to Fanggu City and help Xiao Qidao find his mother. "

After An Zheng replied, he mumbled to himself, "I wonder how is Lady Ye's life going."

Du Shoushou said: "It should be fine, it seems like Mu Changyan is someone with a lot of status. He loves the Lady Ye, so he shouldn't cause her any pain."

And at this time, in the Fanggu City, which was thousands of miles away from him, the Lady Ye was coiled in chains and was pushed into a cell.
