After staring at each other for a while, both of them suddenly reacted and quickly turned their heads away.
Ye Li pursed his dry lips and quickly changed the subject, saying, "By the way, Miss Dongfang, where are you going next? Are you going back to the Imperial City?"
This question stumped Dongfang Caiyi.
She has been out for quite some time. Although the Imperial City has arranged experts to follow her most of the time, there is also a lot of time when she is alone, such as these two days.
Wandering around aimlessly outside for such a long time allowed her to see and learn a lot.
But today, she felt a little tired and wanted to find a place to rest and stay for a while.
Speaking of returning to the Imperial City, Dongfang Caiyi couldn't help but frown. For some reason, she felt a little repulsed by that place. The people there praised her too highly.
Every time she returned to the Imperial City, she was accompanied by her elders, and her food, clothing, housing and transportation were all completely arranged, which made her often feel like a useless person who could do nothing.
She doesn't like that kind of life, it makes her feel very boring and uncomfortable.
After thinking about it, Dongfang Caiyi's eyes suddenly lit up and she said, "I'll go to the Imperial Guards, too, with you."
As she spoke, Dongfang Caiyi looked at Ye Li with a serious look in her eyes.
When Ye Li heard this, he felt a little happy, but it soon turned into worry, and he said, "Miss Dongfang, I heard that the training of the Emperor's Guards is very cruel, and it is not suitable for you.
And if you go there, will Elder Qi and Elder Mei agree? Will they send someone to take you away?"
Dongfang Caiyi snorted coldly and said, "So what if it's cruel? If you want to gain powerful strength, how can you do it quickly without self-harming efforts
I am not a flower in a vase. I am also a talisman master. Practicing cultivation is what I should do.
As for Grandpa Qi and the others, if I absolutely don’t go back, they can’t do anything to me. At most, they will send some people to protect me, and they won’t interfere with anything else.”
Hearing Dongfang Caiyi's words, Ye Li couldn't help but nodded, and there was something more in his eyes when he looked at Dongfang Caiyi.
In the past, he also regarded Dongfang Caiyi as the little princess of the Imperial City. Now it seems that Dongfang Caiyi may not necessarily want to play a princess-like role.
What she pursues is also strength, and she also desires to make herself stronger through hard work, which is the same as all talisman masters who want to become stronger.
After thinking for a while, Ye Li nodded and said, “If you don’t mind, Miss Dongfang, we can go to the Imperial Guard together.
But the journey is long, I think if we... if we share a horse... it's not a good idea, we should go to the city to find a fast horse first.
I still have half a month to travel, and the remaining distance is not far. If we can move a little faster, we can save a lot of time along the way.
By then, we can also visit different towns along the way and gain some knowledge.”
Hearing Ye Li's words, Dongfang Caiyi suddenly became interested. After the frost melted, she seemed to be curious about many things.
After discussing for a while, the two decided to go to a nearby town to get a good horse at daybreak, so that they could travel together and report to Donghai.
As the night deepened, the two chatted casually for a while and then decided to rest.
As talisman masters, when they reach this level, they don’t necessarily have to choose to rest by sleeping. Meditation is also a good way to rest.
This place is located in the wilderness and Ye Li did not bring a tent with him, so it is not very suitable for sleeping. The two of them simply meditated and stayed here until the next morning.
After the sun came out, they both came out of their trance and woke up.
After packing up, Ye Li looked at the map and said, "Miss Dongfang, the nearest town is still an hour's walk away from us.
In order to save time, how about you riding my Thunderlin horse while I run behind at my fastest speed? "
Dongfang Caiyi naturally didn't want to accept it when she heard it. Ye Li was the owner of the horse. Now the owner asked her to ride the horse while he ran behind. How could she accept that
Ye Li said: "Miss Dongfang, you have seen my speed before. If I run at full speed, I am not slower than running on electricity, so it is better for you to ride.
Besides, if Elder Qi and the others knew that I asked you to walk while I rode a horse, they would definitely beat me up, so I decided to walk."
When Dongfang Caiyi heard Ye Li's joking words, she was slightly stunned. After being silent for a while, she finally nodded and agreed to Ye Li's proposal.
Afterwards, Dongfang Caiyi did not act pretentiously with Ye Li anymore, but rode Ye Li's Leilin horse openly.
Lei Lin horse was very human-like. Knowing that Dongfang Caiyi was his master's friend, he immediately became well-behaved and did not resist being ridden.
After Dongfang Caiyi got on the horse, she drove the horse quickly towards the town.
Ye Li himself activated the Thunder Ring and ran out wildly.
The Thunderlin Horse has always been proud of its speed, and it is indeed the fastest horse.
Although Ye Li is his master, it cannot stop it from competing with Ye Li in speed.
If Ye Li's speed increases by one point, Lei Lin Ma's speed will increase by two points. In short, it will resolutely not let Ye Li catch up.
Ye Li is a mortal after all. Even though he is powerful, it is difficult for him to burst his speed to the extreme when he is not in combat. After all, he cannot impose various states on himself just for the sake of racing with his horse.
Relying on his ordinary physical state, even with the power of the Thunder Ring, Ye Li's speed was still slower than that of the Thunder Horse, and he was unable to catch up with the incredibly fast electric current.
However, after chasing each other, they soon arrived at a nearby town.
As soon as Ye Li entered the town, he saw the mark of the Traveling Merchants Guild's base. After hesitating for a moment, he came to the Traveling Merchants Guild's base.
After showing the token, Ye Li was immediately warmly received by the members of the Traveling Merchants Association.
After stating their purpose to the other party, the members of the Traveling Merchants Association immediately found a BMW for Ye Li.
This BMW horse, Baiyutashixue, is completely white without a single stray hair and it is very fast. After Dongfang Caiyi rode on it, she felt very comfortable and the speed of the two of them increased a bit.
With the help of horses, they quickly passed through the towns along the way. It was quite pleasant to combine sightseeing and traveling.
