Ling Ba followed closely behind, his mind filled with thoughts of Gu Xiaoran, just like Qiu Yan's.
Huyan Xun snorted coldly, summoned his warhorse, and mounted it.
"Qiu Yan, do you need help? If you agree to stay in Beimo from now on, I will release your man and your son."
Qiu Yan glanced at Huyan Xun's warhorse out of the corner of her eye.
Her eyes darted around, and she spotted three or five warhorses leisurely grazing directly in front of her. Then…
She and Ling Ba exchanged a glance, then ran swiftly, quickly flipping themselves onto the ground.
The next instant, the horse beneath him began to gallop wildly.
Lightning struggled to keep up, but it relentlessly pursued the enemy.
Qiu Yan knew that Lightning was exhausted, so she quickly pulled, and Lightning flipped in the air and lay sideways on her horse's back.
"Giddy up—" Qiu Yan moved with lightning speed, followed closely by the anxious shouts of two barbarian soldiers chasing after her.
"Stop! Those are our horses! Stop! You all stop!"
Hu Yanxun stared intently at Qiu Yan's movements, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips slightly.
"Woof woof..." Lightning lay sprawled on the horse's back, somewhat uncomfortable, but still barking excitedly.
It barked forward, still guiding Qiu Yan in the direction she was heading.
Soon, Qiu Yan and Ling Ba rode their horses towards the hunting grounds ahead.
From a great distance, Xie Ning, Feng Chao, and their soldiers were surprised to see Qiu Yan and her companion's anxious footsteps.
Xie Ning asked the soldiers beside him, "What are Miss Qiu and the Eighth Vice General going to do?"
Jiang Sheng: "Let's go take a look."
Feng Chao, Zhang Meng, and Lü Chong echoed this sentiment.
The five of them walked side by side and rushed towards the hunting grounds.
As the five men ran, the rest of the Dongjin soldiers also rushed forward.
Outside the hunting grounds, there were densely packed barbarian soldiers.
They carried crossbows on their backs, and inside the quiver were unique arrows marked with their own names.
The purpose is to ensure proper recognition and to reward merit.
The hunting grounds were surrounded by barbarian soldiers for miles around, their purpose being to act as a hunting wall.
To prevent prisoners from escaping and to avoid being injured by hunting wolves, the soldiers of the hunting wall also carried bows and arrows.
The remaining soldiers were the main force in this hunting expedition.
The soldiers were now mounted on their horses, fully equipped and ready to go, waiting for Yuwen Xian's order.
"Get out of the way!"
With Ling Ba leading the way, Qiu Yan easily broke through the crowd, and the two rushed straight into the hunting grounds.
Their actions drew much discussion among the barbarian soldiers.
They didn't even have a chance to react, let alone stop it.
"What happened?"
"They're participating too?"
"Hasn't the hunt started yet?"
"They're cheating!"
"..."
"Stop! Give me back my horse!"
"stop……"
Behind them, the two barbarian soldiers whose warhorses had been stolen chased after them, panting heavily, but they could only watch helplessly as Qiu Yan and Ling Ba entered the battlefield.
The barbarian soldiers discussed the matter again because of their vehement protests.
Why did they steal the horses?
What are they going to do?
"Could it be that they've come to cause trouble?"
"..."
The discussion ceased as Huyan Xun and Yuwen Xian appeared simultaneously.
Yuwen Xian glanced at Huyan Xun and thought to himself, "The woman he brought back this time is quite extraordinary."
I thought she was frail and delicate, but it turns out she's a fierce woman.
Huyan Xun nodded to Yuwen Xian, then cracked his whip and entered the hunting grounds first.
Yuwen Xian stared at Huyan Xun's hurried retreating figure for a moment, then cleared his throat and said loudly:
"Warriors, the rules of the hunting grounds are the same as always today."
This time, let's not let the wolves get there first again.
