"Shui Bing'er is the number one beauty in the Anarchic Lands. Her martial soul is a rare top-grade martial soul, the Ice Phoenix. She even participated in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament. Hence, Shui Bing'er is like a goddess in the Anarchic Lands. Everyone revolves around her, and she has countless suitors."

Mo Ling'er's cute little face was filled with envy. Her tone was filled with the jealousy of a little girl. She blinked at Fang Xuan and asked curiously, "Brother Li, you don't know Shui Bing'er?" Fang Xuan coughed dryly.

He didn't expect Shui Bing'er to be in the Anarchic Lands. "That's not all. Tianshui City is one of the top powers in the Anarchic Lands. They have many experts and are famous. They aren't inferior to the Qilin's Cavern by much. Hence, the marriage between Qilin's son and Shui Bing'er has been praised as a match made in heaven."

Mo Ling'er's big black eyes were bright. She had a gossipy look on her face as she spoke frankly. Fang Xuan was silent. His face was as calm as water, and he didn't say anything. However, Mo Lengyue, who was in charge of leading the group, suddenly snorted and said, "Ling'er, you're looking at things too lightly. I think this matter isn't simple. Marriage has always been a common method for political alliances. This marriage doesn't only concern Shui Bing'er and Qilin's son, but also the alliance between Tianshui City and the Qilin Cave"

At this point, Mo Lengyue's brows furrowed slightly. She said worriedly, "If the Qilin Cave has Tianshui City as an ally, their strength will undoubtedly increase. They'll probably be able to sweep through the entire Anarchic Lands." The young lady's unique opinion surprised Fang Xuan. It seemed like Mo Lengyue, who was able to lead a family at such a young age, was indeed shrewd and knowledgeable!

"What are you looking at? If you keep looking, I'll gouge your eyes out" Noticing Fang Xuan's gaze, Mo Lengyue was slightly taken aback. She thought that he was secretly looking at her, and a trace of anger appeared on her face.

She subconsciously raised her hand to block the waves in front of her chest. But how could one hand cover the sky?! Excessive pressure would only lead to an even more ambiguous rebound!

On the other hand, Fang Xuan had a calm look on his face, without any changes in his expression. However, the surrounding men of the Mo Clan were all attracted at this moment. All of them turned their gazes towards Mo Lengyue's chest, their gazes burning with passion.

"Damn it! There are no good men … " Mo Lengyue gritted her teeth in anger. Her clear eyes were burning with rage as she swept her gaze over the members of the Mo Clan.

"What are you looking at? Hurry up and move"

"Haha, Miss is angry."

"Let's go, let's hurry"

"Leave if you don't want to get beaten up"

The group smiled embarrassedly and hurriedly shrunk their heads back, continuing on their way. They didn't dare to look around anymore; otherwise, they would be beaten up. Mo Lengyue's fiery temper was something they had experienced before, and they didn't want to be beaten up for no reason.

A group of over twenty people passed through the mountains, circled the dangerous swamps, and rushed towards the Qilin Sacred City in the center of the Anarchic Lands. There was less than a week before the wedding, so they had to hurry up. Otherwise, they might not be able to make it in time for the wedding in the Qilin Cave. There was still a long way to go before they reached their destination.

At dusk, the fiery red clouds of the morning sun shone endlessly, illuminating the light gray sky like a blazing flame. Under the state of rapid march, they had rushed for an entire day. Everyone felt very tired and couldn't walk anymore. This group of Mo Clan disciples wasn't very strong, only around rank 20 to 30. Thus, they had exhausted all their energy and needed to rest.

Mo Lengyue naturally knew the strength of her clansmen. She lifted her jade-like hand and pointed towards an ancient forest. She said to everyone, "Alright, everyone, let's work harder. After passing through that forest, we will reach the city. At that time, we can rest and continue on our way tomorrow."

In the Anarchic Lands, due to the chaotic order and rampant bandits, it was very dangerous to sleep in the wilderness. If one wasn't careful, they might encounter an assassin group or a group of ferocious soul beasts. If that happened, their lives wouldn't be guaranteed.

Thus, when Mo Lengyue was rushing, she was very cautious. She insisted on traveling during the day and resting during the night. She chose to rest in a safe city with people. She never slept in the wilderness!

Under her leadership, the group didn't encounter any trouble along the way. They didn't even meet a single soul beast. From this, it could be seen that Mo Lengyue was indeed a very strong leader. Many Mo Clan disciples trusted her very much.

"Alright, alright, hold on a little longer"

"Listen to the young miss and continue on our way"

"After passing through the forest in front, we can rest. Everyone, let's work harder."

The Mo Clan disciples roused their spirits and listened to Mo Lengyue's orders. They walked towards the forest in front.

At this moment, Fang Xuan, who had been silent the entire way, suddenly said, "I suggest that you don't enter the forest!"

"Eh?!" Everyone was stunned. After that, they turned their heads in unison. Their puzzled gazes locked onto the silent Fang Xuan who was at the back of the group.

"Why?" Mo Lengyue frowned as a puzzled expression appeared on her face. She also glanced at Fang Xuan.

"It's just a suggestion …" Fang Xuan shrugged. His sharp gaze landed on the calm forest ahead. This calmness caused him to feel somewhat uneasy. That's right, it was too calm. There wasn't even the sound of birds chirping. It was so calm that it was somewhat strange.

"Do you know that if we take a detour around this forest, we would have to travel for another three to four days before we can reach the Qilin Sacred City. Also, we wouldn't be able to reach the city today. If we sleep in the wilderness, the danger we might encounter would be over ten times higher than if we passed through this forest."

Mo Lengyue did her best to suppress the anger in her heart. She glanced at Fang Xuan with some dissatisfaction and said, "If you don't have any concrete evidence, please don't speak!"

Fang Xuan understood the words of this young girl 'Can you please shut up?!

He calmly shut his mouth and didn't say anything else.

"We won't change our route. Continue forward" Under Mo Lengyue's command, the group quickly walked towards the dense forest.

Night fell. The Mo Clan's group calmly traversed through the forest. They didn't even encounter a single soul beast after walking through half of the forest. Only then did everyone relax. On one hand, they admired Mo Lengyue's wise guidance. On the other hand, they were cursing Fang Xuan for making a fuss over nothing.

When the group walked out of the forest, the sky was completely dark, as though it was dyed in ink.

"Whew ~ We're finally out"

After safely walking out of the forest, Mo Lengyue heaved a sigh of relief. Before entering the forest, because of Fang Xuan's words, she was really worried. Therefore, when they were in the forest, she was on full alert and vigilant of her surroundings. She didn't dare to relax in the slightest.

However, all the way until they passed through the forest, they didn't encounter any danger. They didn't even meet a single soul beast. This allowed Mo Lengyue to heave a sigh of relief. She felt frustrated in her heart as she glared at Fang Xuan with some resentment. She thought to herself, "This overly suspicious fellow, how could there be any danger …"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Right at this moment, countless sounds of breaking through the air rang out. A group of black figures rushed over from all directions. They were densely packed, and there were dozens of them. They carried a terrifying aura as they crazily rushed towards the Mo Clan's group that had just relaxed.

Feeling the cold killing intent surging towards her from all directions, Mo Lengyue's beautiful face instantly turned ugly. She shouted, "Enemy attack!"
