Before Feng Wu said a word, Yan Yan glared at her and said, “Your carriage is requisitioned. Name your price!”
Feng Wu eyed Yan Yan as if she was looking at an idiot. She then ignored Yan Yan completely and frowned at Ning Chenxi. “Bring your mother into the carriage. She can’t afford any more delays. We need to set out now!”
Seeing that Yan Yan was getting into the carriage as well, Feng Wu kicked her out.
“You —”
Yan Yan stumbled back in disbelief. She pointed a finger at Feng Wu and yelled, “You didn’t save me just then and let my face get destroyed by the branches. I’ll forgive you for that, but you just kicked me out of the carriage! How dare you? Do you have any idea who I am?”
“I don’t care who you are. You’re not getting into my carriage. Bite me!” After that, Feng Wu cracked her whip and the horses galloped out.
“You! Stop there! Stop —” Yan Yan thought that she was going to lose her mind!
Behind her was the wave of unstoppable magical beasts and she had just been kicked out of a carriage… she was the daughter of the minister on the Board of Civil Office and on the Grand Council!!!
Feng Wu smirked. “You’re too heavy and we can’t afford to have you on board. Run for your life, if you still cherish it!”
Feng Wu flicked her whip as she spoke and the horses dashed forward!
Yan Yan was wild with rage!
She had never expected that Feng Wu would really make her run after the carriage like this!
That woman! I swear I’m going to kill her one day! Yan Yan vented her hatred in her head!
Ning Chenxi was as concerned about Mrs Ning as he was about the two galloping horses. He asked in consternation, “Are they going to go berserk? What if they do?”
“They won’t,” Feng Wu said sternly and focused on controlling the horses.
In such a situation, she was the only one who could adequately command the two fine horses so that they could run at top speed.
Leaning against Ning Chenxi, Mrs Ning saw that the young lady could drive the horses so smoothly in such a situation and was even more amazed by Feng Wu. She told Ning Chenxi, “If you had paid more attention to the horses, you would have noticed that their ears are stuffed up.”
With their ears plugged, the horses couldn’t hear any noise, which was why they weren’t frightened.
Mrs Ning was so intrigued. She had never met such a smart girl before.
Mrs Yan kept turning around to look behind them, for Yan Yan was still running!
More than once, she wanted to beg Feng Wu to let Yan Yan in, but her pride stopped her in the end.
Luckily, Yan Yan was pretty fast and her will to survive only gave her more strength. She was able to follow the carriage closely so far!
Rumble!
Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled!
Streaks of lightning struck down!
Rain began to fall heavily!
A mud avalanche rushed down the mountain in the distance!
Mrs Yan looked at where Sumeru Temple used to be. The entire mountain had been wiped off the face of the earth by the earthquake.
She couldn’t help but dart another look at Feng Wu. Was the girl really that capable or had she just gotten lucky? However, recalling Feng Wu’s resolute and decisive moves… Mrs Yan couldn’t help but frown again.
Controlling the horses, Feng Wu avoided countless pits and falling stones. Finally, they were outside Wanping Town.
By then, the magical beasts were less than 1000 meters from them!
“Open the gate! Open the gate now!” Ning Chenxi ran out of the carriage and brandished his governor’s token.
The gatekeepers wouldn’t have opened the gate for anyone else, for the magical beasts were so close and it would be too dangerous to do so!
However, the token represented the governor of Anyuan Province and they couldn’t afford to take it lightly!
