"I understand everything you said, I'm just a little annoyed," Mo Jinnian said, seeing that the Sixth Elder Brother was no longer so agitated.
Only then did He Zhiran feel a little more at ease. She had just increased the speed of the carriage a little when the carriage door behind her was opened from the inside.
"Ninth younger brother, I'll go catch up with Ninth Sister-in-Law's carriage to let her rest for a while," Mo Jinnian said, and he was about to jump off the carriage.
He Zhiran also noticed his action and quickly said, "Sixth Elder Brother, I can do it. Your body has not fully recovered since you just relieved the Gu poison, so stay in the carriage these days to rest and take care of the Fourth and Seventh Elder Brothers at the same time."
It wasn't that she was determined to drive the carriage herself, she and Mo Jiuye had already agreed that if they encountered an emergency on the road, they would lock the carriage door and send the carriage into the space together.
If the Sixth Elder Brother came to drive, she wouldn't be able to continue operating like this.
In order for everyone to safely leave Southern Frontier, He Zhiran had to grit her teeth and persevere no matter what.
In fact, Mo Jiuye was happy to let his elder brother replace his wife in driving the carriage when he saw that the Sixth Elder Brother was fine.
But thinking of the dangers they might encounter on the road, it would be easy if it was just him alone, but with two carriages and seven people, without his wife's space, it would be impossible to resolve the crisis.
Mo Jiuye looked at his wife distressedly and persuaded her forcefully, "Sixth Elder Brother, Zhiran understands medicine, you should listen to her."
When the two of them mentioned his physical condition, Mo Jinnian only then carefully sensed it.
Except for some dizziness and discomfort, he was fine.
Besides, he didn't know about Ninth Sister-in-Law's pregnancy. Seeing that the couple insisted, he had no reason to be stubborn.
"All right, I'll rest first in the carriage. Ninth Sister-in-Law, call me if you get tired to switch."
"Okay, I'll call Sixth Elder Brother when I'm tired," He Zhiran responded and continued to drive the carriage forward.
The journey went smoothly all the way and arrived at the city gate on time.
It seemed that Southern Frontier had been shocked by the two people sneaking in from the border recently. There was no inspection when they came in, but there were obviously many more checkpoints when going back.
As before, the two found a secluded alley according to plan.
Mo Jiuye could hear the conversations of several elder brothers in the carriage. In order to prevent them from having doubts, he felt it necessary to explain.
"Fourth Elder Brother, Sixth Elder Brother, Seventh Elder Brother, the city gate is not far ahead, and there are guards guarding it. Zhiran and I will change our looks so we won't be recognized. We plan to temporarily park the carriages here and go to the city gate to take a look. Please try not to make any noise in the carriage so as not to attract unnecessary trouble."
"You and Ninth Sister-in-Law just go ahead and be extra careful," the Fourth Elder Brother responded. Then the carriage instantly quieted down.
Seeing this, He Zhiran waved her hand and put both carriages into her space.
She and Mo Jiuye then headed towards the city gate without any cover.
By this time, the sky was already dark. Ordinary people basically wouldn't leave the city at night unless they had something important to do. Therefore, apart from a group of guards at the city gate, you could rarely see civilians.
Naturally, their arrival was subject to some interrogation, but Mo Jiuye managed to get through smoothly, and they successfully left the city.
The first thing after leaving the city was to immediately take out the carriages.
Fortunately, the Mo family brothers trusted Ninth Younger Brother and Sister-in-Law enough. Even if they felt something was a little off, they did not doubt anything.
After all, they were still in Southern Frontier Territory. They couldn't stay at an inn at night, and since they were already on the official road, it would take a long time to travel to the next city. Sleeping outdoors was inevitable.
Fortunately, although Sixth Elder Brother would occasionally get dizzy, taking care of Fourth and Seventh Elder Brothers was not a problem.
Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran found a secluded place at the foot of a mountain to rest. He Zhiran helped Sixth Elder Brother with acupuncture to alleviate his dizziness.
In fact, Sixth Elder Brother's dizziness was not difficult to solve. He had just had his consciousness sealed for too long, and his brain was a little unaccustomed to being suddenly restarted again. Even without acupuncture, he would recover after some rest.
Without talking all night, everyone set off again before dawn the next day.
Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran were already prepared to encounter trouble on the road, but whether it was because the Emperor of Southern Frontier was missing and no one issued orders, or some other reason, in short, their journey was smoother than they had imagined by countless times.
After four days of travelling, the group finally arrived at the border of Southern Frontier.
It was already night time. In Mo Jiuye's opinion, it would be much easier to pass the border checkpoint at this time of poor visibility than during the day. Besides, he still had something important to do that was most suitable for this dark night with obscure vision.
It might take longer to get through the checkpoint this time, so Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran did not dare to be careless. They sent the people inside the carriage into the space only after everyone had fallen asleep.
Mo Jiuye looked at his wife guiltily and said solemnly, "Ranran, let's go."
"Okay."
Mo Jiuye gently put his arm around her waist, leapt up high, and then began to observe the situation at the border checkpoint.
There were two teams of patrolling soldiers at the checkpoint, rotating back and forth to exchange shifts.
There would be a gap of about ten seconds during the shift change.
Mo Jiuye planned to take advantage of this ten-second gap to use their superior lightness skill to leap over with his wife.
He Zhiran was nervous at this moment. After all, the situation was different from when they sneaked in.
The two of them still hadn't been found after the infiltration. The Southern Frontier barracks must be on high alert now.
Mo Jiuye felt her nervousness and gently comforted, "Trust me, I will definitely protect you and our child at all costs..."
As he was thinking, the two had already leapt up high, heading straight for the checkpoint.
They landed more than 50 meters beyond the Southern Frontier checkpoint.
Seeing the patrolling soldiers turning back and possibly spotting them soon, He Zhiran took Mo Jiuye straight into the space.
Mo Jiuye did not idle either, as he had to prepare for that important matter.
"Ranran, don't look this way."
He Zhiran knew what Mo Jiuye was going to do. Just thinking about that scene made her want to vomit.
"Okay, I'll go to the medical room. Call me when you're done."
Seeing his wife walking away, Mo Jiuye swiftly cut off the Southern Frontier Emperor's head.
When they left the space again, Mo Jiuye took He Zhiran and continued using their superior lightness skill, running several hundred meters away to stand under a thick big tree.
At the same time, He Zhiran also used her mind power to take out the Southern Frontier Emperor's corpse and severed head.
Mo Jiuye casually picked up the corpse and head from the ground.
"Ranran, just hide here and wait for me. If there's danger, go into the space in time. If something happens on my side, I'll also withdraw as soon as possible to meet you here, then you just need to come out and check occasionally."
He Zhiran knew that since she didn't know lightness techniques and was pregnant, following him would not be helpful but a burden instead.
However, letting Mo Jiuye take such risks alone, she really couldn't stop worrying.
