Once they reached a safe place, they continued searching for Qi Guze, but couldn't find him. They then immediately continued their journey towards the capital of the Wulin Kingdom.
“Sister, we haven’t seen brother-in-law along the way. Maybe he has already arrived in the capital of Wulin Kingdom. But why didn’t he wait for you?”
"Doesn't my brother-in-law know about my sister's current situation?"
"Could he think his sister is dead?"
Xia Sen spoke to Xu Yuehuai, acting like a clever little devil, as if he was deliberately saying bad things about Qi Guze.
The Ghost Doctor noticed this from the side. He saw that Xia Sen was targeting Qi Guze, but he didn't say much, since he didn't like Qi Guze very much either.
“I don’t know what exactly happened, or why your brother-in-law did this. Maybe we’ll only find out the reason after we see him.”
"We are still quite a distance from the capital of Wulin Kingdom. Let's hurry on our way and make sure we don't encounter any more dangers."
Xu Yuehuai spoke to them, then hurried on her way.
They used their last remaining silver to buy a particularly dilapidated carriage, and the three of them rode in the carriage toward the capital of the Wulin Kingdom.
Xu Yuehuai and the Ghost Doctor sat inside the carriage, while Xia Sen, as the youngest apprentice and younger brother, drove the carriage outside.
"Xia Sen, why don't you come in quickly? I'll go outside and drive the carriage. It's so cold outside, your little body probably can't handle it. I'll be worried to death if anything happens to you," Xu Yuehuai said to Xia Sen as she pulled open the carriage curtain.
Xia Sen shook his head: "Sister, you should just sit here and behave yourself. I don't want you to get into any danger. You're so pretty, if people around you see you, they'll definitely have some wicked ideas."
"I'll drive the carriage here. You and the master can just sit inside and relax. We'll be arriving in the capital of Wulin Kingdom in no time, and then everything will be fine."
Xu Yuehuai could only say, "Alright then, you stay here and drive the carriage. If anything happens, just call us."
They continued their journey to the capital of the Wulin Kingdom.
After a long time, they finally arrived at the capital of Wulin Kingdom. The rest of the journey went very smoothly, and they did not encounter any danger.
After they arrived at the capital of the Martial Kingdom, the Ghost Doctor quickly led them to a territory of Qi Guze, following the route he remembered.
It was a pawnshop, and they immediately looked for the staff after arriving at the pawnshop.
"Brother, we'd like to find your manager," Xu Yuehuai said to the man.
The young man smiled and said, "What do you want with our manager? Our manager is very busy and doesn't see just anyone. We wouldn't invite him over unless you have something particularly valuable."
Upon hearing this, Xu Yuehuai took out her dagger. It was a very important dagger given to her by Qi Guze. They would definitely recognize it when they saw it, since it had Qi Guze's mark on it.
The young man's eyes lit up when he saw the dagger; he could tell that this thing was definitely not an ordinary item.
Then his attitude took a complete 360-degree turn. He became charming, his eyes crinkled with laughter, and his tone softened considerably.
"Miss, please wait here. I'll go and fetch the manager right away. Please don't leave. Just sit here and rest for a while. I'll be back soon."
"Okay, then you go quickly, we'll wait here."
Xu Yuehuai led Xia Sen and the others to sit down nearby, and then waited for the young man to call the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper quickly ran over and immediately came to their side. When he saw the dagger in their hands, he was shocked.
This dagger was made by some of their workers here. After all, they are from the Wulin Kingdom, which is particularly good at making weapons. When Qi Guze asked someone to make this dagger, he sent the blueprints to them.
He personally witnessed the dagger being delivered to Qi Guze, and he never expected it to be in his possession so soon. This was only the second time he had seen the dagger, and he never imagined it would be in the hands of such a beautiful young woman.
"What is your relationship with our master?" the shopkeeper asked Xu Yuehuai.
Xu Yuehuai immediately said to the shopkeeper, "This dagger was a gift from him. What do you think our relationship is?"
"I never expected you to be Princess Heyue! It's truly an honor to have you here, Princess. Please follow me into the inner hall."
The shopkeeper immediately recognized Xu Yuehuai's identity and gestured for them to go to the backyard.
Upon hearing this, Xu Yuehuai immediately followed him, and the group went to the backyard and sat down at the stone table.
"I didn't expect Princess Heyue to come to the capital of our Wulin Kingdom. Are you here to see the Prince?" the shopkeeper said to Xu Yuehuai.
Xu Yuehuai said, "Yes, on the way to Wulin Kingdom, the prince and I suddenly encountered a mudslide, so we got lost and separated. I have been trying to find the prince all this way, but I have not found any trace of him, so I came here."
Do you know where the prince is?
Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper shook his head in disappointment.
“Princess Heyue, we are so sorry. We didn’t know where the Prince was. We thought you knew where he was.”
"How could this be? The Prince didn't come to the capital of Wulin Kingdom? Where did he go? Did he encounter danger on the road?"
Upon hearing the shopkeeper's words, Xu Yuehuai felt extremely anxious, wondering if Qi Guze might actually be in danger.
What if Qi Guze is really in danger? What will they do then? Will they have to go back and continue searching for him?
Will they really be able to find him?
They had already searched with all their might along the way, but still couldn't find any trace of Qi Guze.
If they go looking for him now, will they really be able to find him?
Xu Yuehuai was somewhat uncertain, but now that they had arrived at the capital of the Wulin Kingdom, what should they do next?
