Under Ye Feng's cover, Jiang Yixiu, Huan Ji and Nangong Yang escaped from Xiumo Gorge and walked along the avenue towards Nangong City.
For Jiang Yixue, the demon world was a strange place, where she couldn't even tell the direction sometimes.
She looked at the flat road blankly, but she didn't know which direction Nangong City was in: "Are we going in the right direction?"
Huan Ji had been traveling around with her master Huan Zun since she was a child, so she was familiar with the route to Nangong City. She nodded and said, "Yes, we are heading north, which is the direction to Nangong City."
Jiang Yixue's eyes flashed with sadness: "Is the north in front? I can't tell the direction at all."
Huan Ji looked at Jiang Yixue with pity. Seeing that she was in a low mood, she deliberately joked, "Sister Yixue, are all of you humans like you, or are you the only one like this? You can't even recognize the direction?"
Jiang Yixue was always worried about Ye Feng. The sky above Xiumojian behind her was covered with dark clouds. She felt a sense of tension and oppression as if a storm was about to come. Thinking about the fact that she had no relatives and her sister was not around, and that Ye Feng was in great danger, she felt very complicated. A feeling of sadness surged in her heart and her eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Thinking that she had made Jiang Yixue unhappy because of her joke, Huan Ji quickly apologized: "I was just joking with you, Sister Yixue, don't take it seriously. The north is in front of us, and Nangong City is in that direction."
"It's okay. I don't blame you. I'm just in a bad mood."
Knowing that Jiang Yixue was sad for Ye Feng, Nangong Yang comforted her: "Miss Yixue, General Ye's skills are amazing. I believe he can escape from Xiumo Gorge safely. Don't dwell on this. Think about the positive side."
Seeing Nangong Yang and Huan Ji comforting her, Jiang Yixue's sad mood improved a little. There was a trace of sadness in her smile as she said, "Thank you. I don't know why, but once I'm separated from him, I start to have all kinds of crazy thoughts."
A magic crystal car drove over from the direction of Xiumojian, and the horn sounded, accompanied by a deafening motor sound.
Huan Ji's eyes lit up, and she waved to the magic crystal car: "Handsome guy in the car, can you give us a ride?"
The driver of the magic crystal car was a middle-aged demon. When he saw a beautiful woman waving for a ride, he stopped the car.
The middle-aged demon looked at Huan Ji and the others, his gaze resting on Huan Ji's tall and surging breasts. He felt that her skin was whiter, tenderer and more delicate than that of the demon women, especially her eyes, which were so charming and attractive that it was difficult to refuse her request.
The middle-aged man stopped the car with a smile and said, "Beauty, I want to take a ride. See if it's on your way. Where are you going?"
"Nangongcheng."
"What a coincidence, I'm also going to Nangong City, and we're just on the same route, let's get in the car."
Jiang Yixue and Nangong Yang were overjoyed. It would be most convenient to take a bus to Nangong City. It would only take two hours to get to Nangong City. If they just walked, it would be good if they could arrive in the evening.
After the three of them got in the car, Huan Ji placed her hand gently on the middle-aged demon's shoulder with a sound that could make one's bones go soft.
"Thank you, brother. You are such a good man."
In the rearview mirror, the driver showed a greedy look: "Hey, but I have to charge some tolls."
Huan Ji looked relaxed: "It's normal to charge some travel expenses, how much do you want, big brother?"
The driver thought for a moment and said, "One silver coin per person. Give me three silver coins."
The price the driver asked for was reasonable for this journey. Without saying a word, Nangong Yang took out a gold coin and stuffed it into the middle-aged demon's hand.
Seeing Nangong Yang giving him a gold coin, the driver was a little surprised: "Big brother, this is a bit too much."
Nangong Yang smiled faintly and said, "I'll give you a gold coin, but there's a condition. When you get to Nangong City, don't tell anyone else that you've seen us. Do you understand?"
"Yes, I understand completely."
The middle-aged demon happily stuffed the gold coins into his pocket.
The driver said confidently, "Girl, you've found the right person. I'm a very tight-lipped person. I won't say anything I shouldn't say, and I won't ask anything I shouldn't ask."
Huan Ji smiled faintly and said, "That would be best."
Along the way, the atmosphere in the car was rather depressing. Huan Ji was afraid that if she flirted with Jiang Yixiu, it would remind her of the past and make her unhappy, and there were many questions that she was not convenient to ask in front of the driver.
Nangong Yang doesn't like chatting with others, and staying quietly like this is just what he wants.
Jiang Yixue looked out the window, looking very worried about Ye Feng's safety.
The driver saw that the atmosphere in the car was dull, so in order to ease the atmosphere, he asked with a smile: "Are you guys back from traveling in Xiumojian?"
Huan Ji smiled and said, "Yes, we are back from traveling in Xiumo Gorge."
The driver said with great joy, "Luckily you guys came out early. Xiumo Gorge has been blocked by a large army of over 100,000. I was going to pick someone up at Xiumo Gorge, but was driven away by the army. They even forbade me to stop. Do you know why?"
Huan Ji said nonchalantly: "I don't know. When we came out, everything was calm and nothing happened."
"You are too uninformed. I heard that the leader of the human coalition, the demon Ye Feng, is in Xiumo Gorge. Lord Nangong led all the troops from several nearby cities to surround him in Xiumo Gorge."
Jiang Yixue felt uncomfortable after hearing this and her brows furrowed even deeper.
Huan Ji sneered and said, "You are really well-informed, but I heard that the demon of evil is very powerful. Aren't you afraid that he will hijack your car and abandon your body in the wilderness?"
The driver was startled by Huan Ji's words and consoled himself: "No, there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers surrounding him, he can't get out, how can he have a chance to steal my car, sister, you are really a joke."
Jiang Yixue was already in a bad mood, and the driver's words touched her most painful point. She glared at him with anger in her eyes.
When she got angry, the icy energy in her body started to circulate automatically and she almost condensed into an ice bow.
The temperature in the car suddenly dropped sharply. The driver pulled his clothes tighter and his lips shivered from the cold. He opened the window and felt that it was much warmer outside the car than inside.
He was shocked and terrified, and asked tremblingly: "What's going on? Today, the sun is shining brightly, but why is it so cold in my car?"
Nangong Yang said coldly: "You just said that you have the tightest mouth, but I think it's just a show. You dare to say anything. Aren't you afraid that someone will sew your mouth shut with a needle?"
Huan Ji warned: "If you keep talking nonsense, you will be frozen into ice and your body will be thrown into the wilderness, do you understand?"
"What did I say wrong? Okay, everyone, I won't say anything, is that right?"
The driver felt that the eyes of Nangong Yang, Jiang Yixiu and Huan Ji were particularly sharp when they looked at him, especially Jiang Yixiu, whose eyes almost suffocated him.
