As she spoke, Yu Xiao was already wielding her saber. Yin Ping smiled faintly and asked, ”Are you still going to use force?”
Wu Zhen quickly pulled Yu Xiao away. ”Don't mess around, just bring out that broken blade anytime. Does it work? I also know martial arts. ”
Yin Ping snorted and urged the horse to get on the road. Then, she turned around and said to the five of them, ”It's useless to discuss this with me since you guys want to follow Brother Mu. He has to decide on this matter. ”If you guys really want to join us, why don't you help me find yoga?”
Yin Ping turned around and looked at the boundless desert. She felt that the chances of finding Yu'er was slim. The 1000 Steel Cavalry from the border pass did not know if they had seen Yu'er on the way, and now that he was alone with a child, even if they were anxious, what could they do?
Fortunately, Chen Shufu was lucky to be alive, which made her feel a little relieved. She couldn't help but hold him tighter, leaving only one son in her arms. Yin Ping's heart felt empty.
The horse was too slow, and by the time they got back to Mudcity, it was late at night. By this time, the sand had already settled down. The city was brightly lit with colorful flags hanging high in the sky, making it seem as lively as if it was New Year's Day.
Just as he was wondering, someone from the city gate tower shouted, ”Sister Pingfan, where did you go? But you told me it would be easy to find it! ” The one who spoke was Chen Mu. Chen Shuang shouted loudly, ”Daddy, so mighty!”
Overnight, Chen Mu was no longer the same as before. He was covered in bright silver armor, with a red tassel on the top of his helmet, a evil sword at his waist, and a long bow on his back. He looked just like a general. The colorful flags and lanterns on the city wall were hung to celebrate the alliance between the big man and Shanshan, and after Chen Muyi, the man was the most important official in the Western Regions.
Although he was dressed like this, Yin Ping didn't seem happy at all. She said lightly, ”Brother Mi, come over here.”
Seeing that only one of his two sons had returned, his heart couldn't help but sink. He quickly descended from the city gate tower and jumped off the horse to help Yin Ping. He asked in concern, ”Sister Pingfan, what happened last night? Why did one of the Crimson Lightning Divine Horses die? Where's the other one? Where are you going? Where's Yu?”
After a series of questions, Yin Ping didn't answer them. Instead, she asked with red eyes, ”You finally got your wish granted and returned to being a Chinese. Right now, you look very impressive in this outfit. Have you forgotten about us?”
”Why do you say that?” ”This morning, Lord Bancroft commissioned the king to search Mudcity. Where are you and your child?”
Yin Ping said, ”Then why didn't you ask Huyan Jie what happened last night?”
Chen Xie frowned. ”If he's willing to speak, then why should I be in a hurry? I am only worried that you have been killed by the Five Devils of the desert. I searched through the small forest a few times but didn't find any clues. Last night, the sandstorm was very heavy, how would I know that you guys went out of the city? ”I'm wearing this and you don't like it. If you don't come back soon, I'm afraid we'll have to wait a few days before we can meet again.”
