Early morning.
In front of the Supreme Pontiff Palace, a luxurious carriage was parked at the gate.
Ghost Leopard Douluo sat at the front of the carriage, waiting quietly.
Not long after, Qian Renxue, Ye Xi, and Tian Yue, accompanied by Ling Yuan, walked out of the Supreme Pontiff Palace and went straight onto the carriage.
After the group boarded the carriage, it drove forward under the guidance of Ghost Leopard Douluo.
Inside the carriage, Qian Renxue lifted the curtain, her gaze passing through the window to look at the bustling streets.
"I don't know when I'll be able to return after leaving Spirit City this time."
Qian Renxue leaned her body against the carriage wall, her voice tinged with a hint of emotion.
Hearing this, Ye Xi, Tian Yue, and Ling Yuan in the carriage exchanged glances. Ye Xi took Qian Renxue's hand, a faint smile appearing on her face.
"Sister, the only troublesome person in the Heaven Dou Royal Family is Ning Fengzhi of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."
"As long as you push that old fox, Ning Fengzhi, out of the core of the Heaven Dou Royal Family, you will have a much easier time."
Ye Xi said softly, deep contemplation appearing in her azure eyes.
"This matter cannot be rushed."
"It's best to take it slow."
Qian Renxue revealed a stunning smile and reached out to gently stroke Ye Xi's hair.
After the carriage drove out of Spirit City, its speed gradually increased.
Qian Renxue, Ye Xi, and Ling Yuan began to close their eyes and rest in the carriage, while Tian Yue sat cross-legged in the carriage, performing meditation to Cultivate.
Ghost Leopard Douluo glanced into the carriage, then drove towards Heaven Dou City while trying his best to ensure the ride wasn't too bumpy.
Several days later.
While passing by a small village, Ghost Leopard Douluo, sitting at the very front of the carriage, couldn't help but twitch his nose as a faint smell of blood wafted into his nostrils.
Ghost Leopard Douluo's gaze turned towards the village on the side, his brows furrowing involuntarily.
"Strange, how could there be a smell of blood coming from an ordinary village?"
Ghost Leopard Douluo muttered to himself, the carriage's speed gradually slowing down as he looked towards the carriage cabin.
Inside the cabin, Ling Yuan, who had been resting with her eyes closed, opened her eyes in an instant, her gaze passing through the window to look at the village outside.
"Young Lord, Young Miss."
"The situation in that village seems a bit wrong; there is a smell of blood permeating from it."
Ling Yuan said softly, her gaze quietly fixed on the village outside.
"There's a smell of blood?"
Qian Renxue opened her eyes, her gaze passing through the window to look at the village outside.
"We are not very close to the village. Theoretically, under normal circumstances, there shouldn't be a smell of blood coming from it."
Ye Xi also looked at the village, speaking thoughtfully.
"Ghost Leopard, stop the carriage. We'll go check out the village."
After a brief moment of contemplation, Qian Renxue instructed Ghost Leopard Douluo outside.
Upon hearing Qian Renxue's voice, Ghost Leopard Douluo immediately stopped the carriage.
Qian Renxue, Ye Xi, Tian Yue, and Ling Yuan walked out of the carriage and headed towards the village.
Ghost Leopard Douluo stepped down from the front of the carriage, followed beside Qian Renxue and Ye Xi, and released his mental force to investigate the surrounding situation.
As they got closer to the village, the smell of blood permeating the air became increasingly thick.
"Such a strong smell of blood."
Smelling the blood in the air, Tian Yue couldn't help but frown.
