Chapter 1454: Chapter 1454: Listen to Young Master Changhong

They were far in Jianan City, ah, even if those people knew, it wouldn’t be possible for them to guess so accurately that it was their group, right? Could it really be because he was so eager to see Sister Sangsang that their hurried travel sparked suspicion?

This...impossible, right?

"The pigeon messenger was tracked," Lin Changhong said without thinking.

Those people might not find it easy to deal with them, but dealing with a pigeon that only carries messages should be easy, right?

By following the pigeon messenger, they could find out where the Nine Lotus Hall was, and then they could track the location of her mother, pinpointing them.

"Damn it!"

The person leaning against the tree trunk also cursed under his breath.

They had thought it was just a simple task of escorting two people back to Yejun, but unexpectedly, there were people lying in ambush!

Luckily, they had run fast at that time, and with horses to carry them, those pursuers, even if they were spirit cultivators, had no way to catch up with the galloping horses.

Even so, they had still sustained injuries, both minor and serious, and had engaged in a deadly struggle with their assailants. And he could wager that there was a large group of those spirit cultivators, not just a few!

"Like this, let’s rest here for the night, and tomorrow morning we will..."

"No way!"

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Changhong and Lin Chushui interrupted him at the same time.

"Those people already know we’re slow without horses. If we stay here, we will only allow them to catch up and surround us. By then, it will not be so simple for us to walk out alive," Lin Chushui said to them.

"But we... everyone is still injured," said the man, hesitating and glancing at his companions who were already too exhausted to walk, a hint of hesitation in his eyes.

Without resting for the night, how could they have the strength to walk out?

"Everyone, just bear with it. We’ll apply the medicine and then hurry on. Once we get to the next town, we’ll buy some things, change our appearances, and make it harder for those people to find us," Lin Changhong suggested after thinking it over.

The spirit cultivators were after him and Lin Chushui, of course, with the main target being Lin Chushui; he was just incidental.

But that did not matter, as long as he knew those people were after them, as long as it wasn’t them, the others would not attract their attention, right?

"This..."

The man hesitated again, looking towards the others.

"What do you think?" he asked.

"We’ll follow Young Master Changhong’s lead," one of them said.

"But the injuries on your bodies..."

"What’s this injury worth?"

Before the man could finish, another interrupted him.

"If we continue to stay here, we can only surrender without a fight. If we leave now, we still have a slim chance of survival. Young Master Changhong, your medicine, please give it to me. Let’s apply it quickly and leave without any delay," he said, looking toward Lin Changhong.

"Alright."

Lin Changhong nodded, taking several porcelain bottles from the bundle he had brought with him. He glanced at Lin Chushui.

"Chushui, come and help," he said.

Among their group, he and Chushui had the lightest injuries because they were well protected by the others, so it was up to them now.

...

The next evening...

The several companions watched with twitching faces at the two... individuals before them.

"Young... Young Master Changhong, are you... certain about dressing up like this?" the leader asked, as his mouth twitched markedly.
