Snow State

  On the way, they didn't encounter any more demon attacks. After several hours, they finally reached their destination. The horse carriage stopped outside the city gate, and Yi Huang looked at Suo Yao apologetically as she prepared to get off.

  "Sorry, Xiaoyao, if we didn't have to rush..."

  If they weren't in a hurry to return to Fengdu, he would have thanked this young girl even more sincerely.

  Su Yao said softly, "Thank you, Prince Yi, for sending me on my way. I'll take my leave here." She then bowed with her fist in a heroic gesture before turning around and getting off the carriage.

  "Su Yaogu niang." Yi Huang immediately lifted the curtain in front of him and called out to Su Yao, who had not yet taken a few steps away.

  "Anything else?" She turned back around, looking at him.

  Yi Huang immediately took out a bag of money from his loose pocket and handed it to her, "Su Yao, this may not be much, but I hope you can accept it. When traveling outside, having some silver on hand is always a good idea."

  He also made sense, so Su Yao said thank you and accepted the money. She bid farewell to the crowd in front of her with a glance, then turned around and entered the city.

  "Your Highness, why don't you keep her?" Fang Zhong turned his head to take a look at the carriage and couldn't help but ask the master who was reluctant to part with that figure.

  He watched as the girl entered the city, and only then did Yi Huang slowly withdraw his gaze, letting out a soft sigh, "As fate would have it."

  "Set off."

  He put down the curtain in his hand and turned back into the carriage.

  Su Yu walked casually on the bustling streets, where the noise was extreme. The horse-drawn carriages passed by with a clatter, and the crowd flowed like a brocade. The shops lined up on both sides of the street, and the green-tiled red-walled buildings shrouded in sunlight added a touch of classical elegance to this snowy state.

  It was her first time coming to such a crowded place, and she was very excited. As she walked around, she saw everything, but Su Yeo's appearance immediately caught everyone's attention. They were all deeply attracted to this beautiful girl with an ethereal quality, and some even looked like they were in a trance, causing quite a commotion.

  "Hey, why did you bump into me?"

  "My stall..."

  ……

  People are bumping into each other, some are even bumping into stalls, and there are those who just walk around and bump into trees. All sorts of chaotic sounds fill the air.

  People on the roadside couldn't help but sigh in dismay, for such a woman is truly a rare sight to behold once in a hundred years. Even if the four great beauties of the four nations were compared to her, they would probably be no match.

  Xu Ya walked and walked until she arrived at a wine house, where the fat shopkeeper was counting money at the counter. Seeing a beautiful woman standing outside the door, his eyes lit up, and he immediately handed over his work to the nearby store assistant, smiling as he came forward.

  "Miss, are you eating? Our store has introduced several new dishes today. If you don't mind, why not come in and try them?" The shopkeeper spoke while secretly glancing at Su Yao's stunning face with narrowed eyes, thinking to himself that she was a true beauty, wondering which family's young lady she was, and how she dared to venture out alone.

  Su Ya smelled a delicious dish fragrance coming from inside and her stomach growled with hunger, so she nodded and followed the shopkeeper in.

  As soon as she sat down, she immediately attracted the attention of people around her.

  "Master brother, she's so beautiful, even more beautiful than Master sister." A cute-looking girl with big sparkling eyes, her hands propping up her cheeks, gazed enviously at the white-clothed girl sitting across from her.

  A man wearing a bamboo hat, with the brim covering his face, took a light sip of the clear wine in his hand and glanced at Su Yao without speaking.

  This woman is by no means simple, not judging from her appearance, but the lake-blue long sword beside her, the sword body emits an invisible chill, which is by no means an ordinary object.

  And...

  He narrowed his eyes, and the five elements on that girl's body were extremely active, completely unlike a mortal's physique.

  "Miss, your dish." The shopkeeper's cheerful shout broke the man's train of thought.

  When he was about to withdraw his gaze, his figure suddenly paused, because he found that when the shopkeeper put down several dishes in his hand, a pair of sharp eyes like an eagle glanced at him through his side, had he been discovered? Unexpectedly, this woman's eyes were completely different from her appearance.
