Chapter 119 - 117. Leaving to Da Qi III (2/2)
Meiyun: ” What is with you? It is rare that you are worried about me.”
Huayun: ” Of course I will be worried if your face's as pale as paper for a few days already! And I'm your sister!”
Meiyun: ” Ahahahaha~ I'm really fine. I'm stronger than you in the first place so worry about yourself.”
Huayun: ” No need to tell me that you are stronger, I know that well and I take care of myself reallyyyyy good not like you.”
Meiyun only laughed at Huayun's statement, even though Huayun's words seemed ignorant but deep down in her heart, she was really worried about Meiyun.
Meiyun: ” Let's go back.”
Huayun: ” En.”

Morning*
The entourage continued their journey and it was estimated that they would pass the Da Qi's border in the afternoon. Once they entered Da Qi's territory, their safety would be more guaranteed. The ride was peaceful until one of the commander of the soldiers walked up to Meiyun.
Commander: ” Can I talk to Miss Xu?”
Meiyun: ” For what purpose? Young Miss could hear our conversation from out here so just talk.”
Commander: ” Okay. Our shadow guards had noticed a suspicious group of people from 2 directions approaching our way.”
Meiyun: ” How many is it? How far are they from us?”
Commander: ” More or less, 25 people are coming from the west and 30 from the east. The estimated time they would catch up to us is about 30 minutes as they're quite high skilled in martial arts and magic. And it seems like they were not from the same side.”
Meiyun: ” How do you know?”
Commander: ” The shadow guards managed to kill some of them and noticed the differences in their clothes and badges.”
Meiyun: ” Okay. Young Miss, let me investigate this matter.”
Huayun and Meiyun cupped their fist to the woman inside the carriage. Hong er lifted up the curtain and looked at Meiyun with worried eyes
Hong er: ” Bring some soldiers with you and be careful.”
Meiyun: ” Yes, Young Miss. Huayun, I leave Young Miss' safety in your care.”
Meiyun patted Huayun before she disappeared with the commander.

Commander: ” I will go to the east and you to the west. Bring them with you, even though they are not as strong as you, they will be quite helpful.”
10 tall young men stepped forward and saluted Meiyun with solemn face. Meiyun could recognize two of them as they fought with her before.
Meiyun: ” Thank you, I really appreciate their help. I will be counting on you guys.”
Soldiers: ” Yes!”

Hong er: ” Huayun.”
Huayun: ” Yes, Young Miss?”
Hong er: ” Is your sister really okay?”
Huayun's body twitched when she heard Hong er's question. She gripped her hand until her knuckles turned white.
Huayun: ” She definitely will be fine, she is a very strong fighter.”
Huayun didn't want to lose another person that she loves, she had lost her family and her lover, she didn't want to lose her sister that had protected her and gave her love.
Huayun: ' Meiyun…'
