"Now!?"
This time, it wasn't just Si Kouji who was stunned—so was Tuoba Yu.
"This is far too sudden..."
"Exactly!" Si Kouji snapped out of it, frowning in reflexive opposition. "His Highness has only just started to recover. How can he withstand the rigors of travel? Even if we must leave, we should at least wait another two days..."
"We can't wait!"
Shui Xingqiu's tone was unyielding, leaving no room for doubt.
"If we don't leave now, trying to leave later won't be nearly so simple!"
Si Kouji and Tuoba Yu exchanged a confused look, completely baffled as to why he had suddenly become so insistent.
Shui Xingqiu had neither the time nor the desire to explain.
Hearing what Si Kouji had said, he already guessed what had happened. 'Xiao Lansi has been exposed!'
'Who knows when I'll be dragged into this!'
'Even though I came here under a false identity, if those people really decide to investigate, they'll definitely uncover who I really am!'
