Since Mo Yunjing's injury was almost healed, the speed of their journey these two days was actually very fast.

After about an hour, they were a considerable distance from where the incident had occurred. As darkness fell, Feng Ming instructed everyone to find a secluded place to rest for the night.

Before everyone settled down, Feng Ming walked to Xi Zi Pan'er's side and knocked her unconscious without a word.

An Xuetang: “!”

She looked at Fengming in bewilderment, "Brother, what are you doing"

After confirming that Xizi had completely passed out, Feng Ming finally looked at Mo Yunjing.

The two nodded slightly, both looking at An Xue Tang who was clearly confused.

Feng Ming then slowly spoke up personally, “If our guess is correct, those in black just now were sent by Xi Zi Ke’er to test our strength.”

"!"

All along the way, An Xuetang had been thinking about the identities of those men in black and their purpose.

All the way, she couldn't figure out who sent these people or what their purpose was.

But no matter how she thought about it, she couldn't have imagined such a result.

Because deep down, she couldn't believe that these men in black were sent by Xizi Ke'er to test their strength.

So at this moment, when Feng Ming lightly described it, An Xue Tang was completely stunned.

She was stunned for a while, her mind went blank.

I don't know how long it took, but after slowly regaining my composure, I looked at Mo Yunjing beside me.

He also nodded in agreement, but An Xuetang frowned even tighter, asking with disbelief, "Could it be a mistake Xizi Ke'er is not unfamiliar with us, why would she go to such lengths to test her brother's strength"

"After all, she already witnessed her brother's skill in the capital not long ago, didn't she"

So she truly couldn't understand why Xizi Ke'er would go to such lengths to have someone test Feng Ming's abilities.

However, at this moment, Mo Yun Jing said, "What she wants to test is not just how skilled Feng Ming is. She knows that you came here to find me. Now that you have found me, but she knows nothing about my current state."

So, what she really wants to know right now is how I am, if I'm hurt, and how badly.

"...."

At first, An Xuetang didn't quite understand, but after Mo Yunjing explained it to her, she thought about it herself and immediately reacted.

Xi Zi Ke'er wasn't trying to test Feng Ming's skills here. She clearly wanted to see how badly Mo Yun Jing was injured after being found.

She clearly wanted to know if Mo Yunjing still had the ability to fight others.

To put it simply, Xizi Ke'er is still hesitating, weighing whether or not to accept the Empress's terms.

If Mo Yunjing was just a useless person now, then Xizi Ke'er would choose to agree without hesitation.

But if Mo Yunjing's abilities were still there, Xizi Ke'er might not have taken such a risk.

Because she knew she couldn't afford the consequences of Mo Yunjing successfully leaving Xiliang Country.

At this moment, after Mo Yunjing had finished speaking, the scene fell silent again.

But soon An Xue Tang realized something was amiss, "If Xi Zi Ke'er's true purpose is this, then if we kill all those men in black who came today, wouldn't anyone be left to go back and inform her"

Feng Ming smiled, "Don't worry, those people aren't all fools. When the group charged in, there were people watching from a distance."

At this point, that person probably already reported the specifics to Xizi Ke'er.

“......”

An Xuetang really didn't notice that there was someone else lurking there at the time.

He nodded at the moment, not knowing what to say for a while.

Given the current circumstances, Feng Ming and Mo Yun Jing's guesses are likely true.

Although An Xuetang had considered the possibility of being betrayed by Xi Zikai before, at this moment, she still felt a bit reluctant.

Everyone was silent for a while, then Feng Ming said again, “But actually, having Xizi P'er in our hands is a good thing. Even if Xizi Ke'er really wanted to listen to her mother’s words and attack us.”

"As long as she's not stupid, she'll consider the possibility of us teaming up with Xi Zi and Panger."

"So, there is no need to worry about a dramatic change in the current situation."

Before she was certain of having a hundred percent grasp, someone as cautious as Xizi Ke'er would not dare to act rashly.

Having figured this out, An Xue Tang felt a wave of relief.

At their current rate of travel, it would take them about five or six days to successfully leave the Western Liang Kingdom.

By then, regardless of whether Xizi Ke'er would make a move against them, An Xue Tang wouldn't worry anymore.

At this time, Feng Ming looked at the subordinates of Qingyun Pavilion, “Everyone, take a good rest today. The next few days will be even more arduous, so get a good night's sleep tonight.”

Everyone could see the current situation clearly and readily agreed, "Yes."

Putting Xi Zi Ke'er aside, An Xue Tang walked to Mo Yun Jing's side at this time, pulling him to sit beside her and letting him lean against a big tree.

Without a word, she immediately unbuttoned his clothes and applied medicine to the wound on his abdomen.

Feng Ming, accompanied by two disciples from Qingyun Pavilion, went for a walk in the vicinity to scout the terrain and see if there were any ambushes nearby.

……

Mo Yun Jing did not speak throughout the process of changing the dressing, he only stared at An Xue Tang's furrowed brow for a long time.

As she was about to get up after changing her medicine, Mo Yunjing grabbed her arm and pulled her to sit beside him. He softly asked, "Unhappy"

Knowing what he meant, An Xuetang smiled and shook her head. “It’s not that I’m unhappy, after all, everyone has their own choices. What Xi Zi Cail has done these days isn’t it all for that chair.”

“Now that the Queen has given her the chair, she owes the Queen everything she does.”

"My relationship with Xizi Ke'er began and ended as a chance encounter. After we first met, we continued to keep in touch solely out of mutual benefit."

“To be honest, our relationship wasn't that deep. So no matter what decision she makes in the end, it won't hurt me.”

Mo Yunjing raised his hand and touched her long hair, "Then why are you still frowning"

"I just thought about the explosives I gave her before. If she really listened to the queen and turned against us, I wonder if she would use them against us"

"Now there are just a few of us left. If Xizi Ke'er really brought explosives, even if you and your brother are skilled in martial arts, I'm afraid we would all be doomed."

She really doesn't care if Xizi Keer betrayed her or whether she would kill her.

She was just thinking, if Xizi Ke'er really brought soldiers to encircle them, would she use the explosives she had given her
