The stunned noble man in the back only reacted, rushing at the back of the dusty carriage and cursing loudly and angrily, ''Shameless! Nasty! Despicable! You dare to rob the nobles, you will definitely be severely punished by the laws of the empire, you... you will be retributed!"
"Master, we'd better run quickly the carriage driver who was driving the car whispered a reminder.
The noble lord shivered, glanced at the dead bodies everywhere and cursed, "Damn it!"
Saying that, he took the woman and got into the carriage left behind by Ling Zhan, and while cursing the damned coachman non-stop under his breath, he urged the coachman to quickly leave this damned hellish place.
Several other carriages also hated that they couldn't go twice as fast, the farther away from here the better.
Everyone understood what the consequences of killing a dozen or so mercenaries would be, they didn't even see how that coachman struck, and those powerful mercenaries were all killed!
Just now, they even had a feeling that if anyone dared to say more, that carter would definitely stab the sword in his hand at them without hesitation.
Probably, that veiled girl in black was the person the mercenaries were looking for. Some people even thought in their hearts that if they were chased by the mercenaries, they would immediately tell them about it, lest they take the anger out on themselves.
The car flew on the flat official road, Ye Wini pulled open the curtains of the carriage, then said, "There is a junction in front of us, going down from there, we can take a shortcut so that we don't have to worry about being chased up."
"If we take the official road, how far ahead are there bigger towns?" Ling Yi asked in a bland tone.
"Towns? There's one about fifty miles ahead, this carriage is very fast, it should arrive in a while, however, the other side will probably already know about what just happened, they have trained falcons to deliver the news, it's faster than our carriage!"
Ye Wini has a whole new understanding of Ling Zhan's boldness ...... He actually dared to walk along the official road?
Ling Zun didn't say a word and drove the carriage along sullenly. From afar, he saw a town, about three to five miles away from this side, and next to it, there was a dilapidated goat's intestine path, winding and twisting, not knowing where it led to. Ling Yi stopped the carriage, then blandly said, "Come down."
The smell in the car had pretty much let go, and she had to admit that this carriage was indeed very comfortable, Ye Winnie tried not to think about the nasty things that had just happened inside this carriage, and she was in a much better mood, but unfortunately, the wound on her right shoulder was getting more and more painful.
This was the first time she was wounded by sword qi, she had heard people talk about the pain of being wounded by sword qi in the past, but she could not imagine that it was her turn, she could not help but moan softly a few times in the carriage, and then she clenched her teeth tightly to prevent herself from making a sound, lest she be laughed at by this wooden lump.
Ye Wini froze, just felt comfortable, why did she want to come down? Opening the car door, frowning with a pained face, she rushed at Ling Zhan angrily, "Why do you want to come down? Sitting properly!"
"Stupid!" Ling Zun cursed, "You think those people can't check this car?"
Ye Wini's speech stopped, feeling that she was indeed stupid, and was actually still tormented by the injuries on her body, otherwise with her shrewd nature, how could she not see this kind of problem coming.
