Chapter 453 : Escaping (2/2)

She rubbed her forehead. This time period’s dyes were terrible; they lost color too easily.

“Master, can I wash off this red paint? It feels so greasy!” The little qilin shivered. It’s entire body felt stifled and itchy, as if it had an allergy.

Ning Xuemo thought for a moment, then sighed. “Okay, then don’t be a horse. Be a fox.”

Happily, the little qilin ran to find a place to wash off the dye.

After awhile, it came back in the shape of a blue fox…

“Master, where are we going?” The little qilin was at a loss.

“We’re going to Daliang City.” Ning Xuemo had already asked some people. Just a little farther ahead was a city that bordered both the Vast Sky Empire and Xuan Ming Country.

She planned to rest there, then head on to Xuan Ming Country to take shelter.

As Ning Xuemo was standing up, she suddenly heard the sounds of a zither playing, as light and playful as falling flowers.

The zither sounds scared her, making her unconsciously back up against the sharp corner of the rock behind her. It caused a gash on her leg that began to drip with blood.

Darn it! Ning Xuemo quietly cursed. She looked down at her leg…

The sound of crisp silver bells and a zither melody drifted through the air. Ning Xuemo looked up to see a rather luxurious horse carriage up front. The zither sound was also different from the sound she feared the most : the sound of the Blackwave Zither.

She did not take the zither music seriously. Rolling up her pant legs, she prepared to put medicine on her leg.

If anyone is up to doing a drawing of Han Shanyue as a fat white sheep, send them to I would love to see some fan art, and I’m sure Han Shanyue would “love it” too~

Personally, I’m a “Ning Xuemo be Independent” person, but you know how these stories go……. #byedreams
