Return Journey

Chang Yang's eyes were filled with terror, but no matter how frightened he was, he couldn't move at all. He could only watch as Bai Ling's axe descended onto him.

Jiang Peihuan, as she left, only heard screams from behind but did not look back.

If there were any doubts or questions in Jiang Peihuan's heart before, they were erased after hearing Bai Ling's story. She felt that Chang Yang deserved his fate.

However, remembering Chang Yang's identity, Jiang Peihuan couldn't help but turn to the man beside her. "Xiao Nanye, you just left like that. If the royal family finds out, would there be consequences for you?"

"It doesn't matter."

Seeing the look in Jiang Peihuan's eyes, Xiao Nanye replied softly.

Gazing out of the window, the man continued, "Even if they find out, what can they do to me?"

Hearing this, Jiang Peihuan said no more.
