Chapter 298: Chapter 173 Farewell on Horseback_2

"Audacious servant, I, a princess of noble birth, how... how could I ride such a decrepit horse as yours..."

Yelü Miaomiao twisted her delicate body, her voice trembling somewhat.

Jiang Shouzhong, fearing that the teasing had gone too far, stopped the playfulness and said softly, "Wait for me to finish my business and go to Yanrong, I’ll be Miaomiao’s horse for life, until the day you grow tired of me."

Yelü Miaomiao’s phoenix eyes slightly squinted, she murmured, "I won’t, I’ll never tire of it in my lifetime. Miaomiao will also only be your horse in this life."

Suddenly, she broke free, leapt onto the horseback, and tore off the disguise mask from her face.

"Jiang Mo, mount up!"

Only then did Jiang Shouzhong realize that the young girl’s stunningly beautiful face was even more radiant than usual, just as it was when he first laid eyes on her.

The power of her physic phase had returned, and with it, her beauty.

Jiang Shouzhong was somewhat dazed and said helplessly, "So you’ve been deliberately deceiving me along the way."

Given the girl’s current strength, there was no longer any need to worry once she left Feihu Pass.

Yelü Miaomiao’s lips curled up, "That’s why I say, with you being so naïve and easily fooled, you must stay away from those deeply scheming women, lest you be manipulated without even realizing it."

Jiang Shouzhong couldn’t help but laugh heartily, teasing, "Ah, so my Miaomiao is a jealous jar, I have really underestimated you."

Yelü Miaomiao’s cheeks blushed, she grabbed the man and dragged him onto the horse. A gentle squeeze of her legs against the horse’s flanks, and the steed galloped off like a loosed arrow, racing across the earth.

"Jiang Mo, I’ll let you see, no other woman compares to me, whether in looks or anything else!"

The young girl turned around, gazing directly at Jiang Shouzhong.

Then, the young girl untied...

The steed raced like an unbridled arrow, its hooves thundering.

...

Time silently passed, and the two arrived at Stubborn Tiger Platform.

It was finally time to part.

"It’s time to go home."

The girl delicately hooked a wisp of hair sticking to her damp forehead with her pinky finger, her eyes filled with a profound reluctance.

"I will wait for you."

Jiang Shouzhong wrapped his arms around the girl, speaking softly.

Yelü Miaomiao held Jiang Shouzhong tight, her voice choked with tears:

"Jiang Mo, I’ll report my safety to the Empress Dowager and then come to see you. When the time comes, I’ll stick to you so closely that you won’t be able to interact with any other woman. If you dare to flirt with another woman, I won’t ride your horse, nor let you ride your horse."

Whether you’re angry or scold me, I don’t care. And from now on, no one is allowed to bully you. I’m now close to the power of Sanctum Ascension, anyone who dares to bully you, I will kill them!"

Sanctum Ascension...

Jiang Shouzhong grinned.

Well, not to mention a hundred, even thousands of him would be no match.

To ride such a top-tier master felt utterly fulfilling.

Jiang Shouzhong gently stroked the girl’s hair, bowed his head to capture her lips, kissed her for a moment, and whispered, "I could never be angry with you, much less scold you. In my heart, Miaomiao is always the best."

Yelü Miaomiao revealed a faint smile, tiptoed, wrapped her arms around the man’s neck and began to kiss again.

The two were intoxicated, lost to the world.

After a long while, the girl pushed the man away, turned and said, "Silly, you can go now. If it gets any later, the city gates will close."

Jiang Shouzhong fell silent for a moment, mounted the horse, and laughed out loud, "Wife, I’ll wait for you. If you don’t come, I might truly be seduced."

"You dare!?"

The young girl turned around, tears shimmering on her pink cheeks.

But the man’s call of "wife" brought forth her most beautiful smile.

"Then you try."

Jiang Shouzhong pulled the reins, the sound of horse hooves gradually picked up, and with the wind, he left a phrase behind, "Wife, think about how many children to bear for me after you return. I’ll conserve my strength for you."

"Not a single one!"

Yelü Miaomiao turned to leave, then spun around, cupping her hands around her mouth like a megaphone, as if to shout with all her might, "I’ll bear you a hundred!"

——

In the last moments before the city gate closed, Jiang Shouzhong returned to Longsu Town.

To avoid encountering Jin Ao again, Jiang Shouzhong deliberately changed his clothes and wore a disguise mask, keeping a low profile.

He was quite fearful of the fate between the two of them.

Even with a faint intuition, if he were entangled by that guy again, he’d probably never be able to get away.

Now, he needed to return quickly to Fengcheng, waiting for the lady in the gold skirt to appear.

Gazing at the slowly closing city gate, Jiang Shouzhong looked back at the dim distant skyline and murmured, "Hong’er, I’ve fallen for a girl. Maybe... it’s time I tried to forget you."

...

By the time he reached Fengcheng, it was deep into the night.

Jiang Shouzhong didn’t go back to the same inn as before, to avoid meeting Jin Ao, he found a new inn to rest.

Fighting on horseback was also exhausting.

Jiang indicated that he couldn’t take it.

But upon entering the inn, Jiang Shouzhong unexpectedly saw a familiar face.

Not really an acquaintance, they had only met once before.

At that time, he helped the scholar Zhang Lang take revenge and dealt with the Koi Demon. When he returned to the Capital, he accidentally came across a fortune-telling stall on the street.

The stall was operated by a young girl dressed as a boy.

The girl spouted a bunch of fortune-telling jargon, sounding quite proficient, and Jiang Shouzhong found her cute, even paying her two silver taels.

Latterly, the girl’s father came and returned the money to him.

So he took those two silver taels and bought Er Liang from an old ghost.

At this moment, the girl sat alone in a corner, Cupping her chin with her hands as if waiting for someone, no longer wearing that ill-fitting Taoist robe but instead in a light green dress that was fresh and young like a newly budded leaf, making her look charming and lovely.

However, that immortal’s cactus was still placed on the table.

Bright green.

Jiang Shouzhong hesitated for a moment, then didn’t greet her, asked the innkeeper for a set of upper rooms, and directly went upstairs.
