Yun Chuxue heard this and quickly stepped forward to link her arm with Ye Kunlun’s and kissed him on the cheek.
Then, she looked at Sasha somewhat provocatively.
“Be careful on the road, and remember to call me every day.”
Ye Kunlun showed a helpless expression and stopped explaining.
Yun Chuxue said to Wudao with a smile, “Alright, it’s about time, hurry up and send him to the airport.”
—
From the capital to the Northern Border, the only route was to first arrive at Wucheng, with the entire journey taking three and a half hours.
Ye Kunlun and Sasha boarded the plane smoothly.
“Sir, why are you going to the Northern Border?”
Sasha couldn’t help but ask in a low voice.
Ye Kunlun certainly wouldn’t tell Sasha about Long Qi’s matters. As for the affairs of the Wu tribe, he felt there was no harm in telling her.
Perhaps Sasha might know something.
After thinking for a moment, Ye Kunlun replied, “Ten years ago, my family of four was hunted down. I’ve been investigating the person behind it, and now I have some leads.”
Sasha looked surprised. Ye Kunlun’s strength was such that he had killed four elders of the Biluo Sect, yet ten years ago he was being hunted?
Doesn’t that mean Ye Kunlun only achieved such terrifying cultivation in the last decade?
This was no longer a genius, but a monstrous prodigy!
Sasha put away her shock, calmed her inner turmoil, and continued, “If you don’t mind, Sir, you can tell me. Don’t underestimate the vastness of the Northern Border; I have quite a few acquaintances there.”
“A young man with a red mole at the corner of his right eye,” Ye Kunlun said faintly.
This was the only information he had obtained from Wuxiang Palace, the Eastern Sea Battle Department, and Sui Yan.
“A red mole at the corner of your right eye?”
Sasha blinked.
“What? Do you know him?” Ye Kunlun noticed Sasha’s expression and mood were somewhat off. Two beams of sharp light flashed in his eyes as he gazed at her.
Ye Kunlun’s sudden change in gaze made Sasha shiver. His eyes were simply too terrifying.
Ye Kunlun quickly retracted his aura and his gaze softened. He asked again, “Do you know him?”
Sasha nodded and replied, “I have indeed seen a man with a red mole at the corner of his right eye, but it might not be the person you’re referring to. After all, there are too many people with a mole at the corner of their eye.”
“Moreover, I saw him a few years ago,” Sasha continued to reveal what she knew. “I’m not too sure where he is now.”
“Where did you see him? What’s his name?” Ye Kunlun fired off a string of questions.
Sasha looked troubled. This matter was related to the King of the Northern Border, and she dared not speak carelessly about matters involving him.
After all, it was the King of the Northern Border who had saved her and her mother back then.
Although she wanted to help Ye Kunlun, if she accidentally disrupted the King of the Northern Border’s affairs, the consequences would be beyond her ability to bear.
“Is there a reason you can’t speak freely?” Ye Kunlun retorted.
Sasha nodded apologetically, “Sir, I can only tell you that I met him at the Northern Border Battle Department three years ago. I don’t know anything else.”
“The Northern Border Battle Department…” Ye Kunlun pondered, “Thank you. This clue is already very important to me!”
That person had once visited the Eastern Sea Battle Department, which made Ye Kunlun wonder if he had indeed gone to the Northern Border Battle Department.
However, that was just his speculation.
Now, he could confirm that the person had been to the Northern Border Battle Department.
“Then let’s head to the Northern Border Battle Department first,” Ye Kunlun recalled what Long Qi had told him when he bid her farewell a few days prior.
Long Qi had asked him to find Wei Cangyun at the Northern Border Battle Department and told him that Wei Cangyun could be trusted for the time being.
After all, Ye Kunlun had no acquaintances in the Northern Border and no suitable place to stay.
If he were to count, Nalan Mingyue could be considered one.
However, the sword strike from her back then had severed their ties.
Perhaps, after they met again, they would be enemies.
“Sir, can I not go to the Northern Border Battle Department?” Sasha’s expression turned grim when she heard Ye Kunlun wanted to take her there.
Ye Kunlun looked at her deeply and asked, “Is the reason you can’t speak freely related to the Northern Border Battle Department? Or do you have enemies there?”
Sasha was reluctant to discuss her relationship with the King of the Northern Border.
She shook her head and said apologetically to Ye Kunlun, “Sir, I’ll wait for you in Kanda Town outside the Northern Border Battle Department. If you need anything, you can find me anytime.”
Ye Kunlun did not force Sasha, nodded, and said no more.
—
The journey was uneventful.
The three-and-a-half-hour flight was smooth, and they landed safely.
“Sir, from Wucheng to Kanda Town, it’s another two-hour bus ride.”
“I have a friend who runs this route, I’ll contact them…”
“No need,” Ye Kunlun interrupted Sasha. “Give me the exact location of Kanda Town.”
Afterward, Sasha provided Ye Kunlun with the precise location.
Ye Kunlun pulled Sasha and took to the sky, flying directly towards Kanda Town.
The wind whistled past their ears, and Wucheng below grew smaller, quickly becoming a vast expanse of wilderness.
What would have taken over two hours by bus was accomplished in less than ten minutes, with Ye Kunlun already spotting the Kanda Town Sasha had mentioned!
They landed in a secluded spot.
“Phew—”
Sasha patted her chest, tidied her slightly disheveled hair, and her eyes were filled with excitement.
After all, this was her first time being taken on a flight.
“Sir, you, you can really fly!” Sasha was momentarily at a loss for words.
“One can fly in the air above the Foundation Establishment realm, but it consumes a lot of spiritual energy. At the Foundation Establishment realm, one can only fly for about a thousand to eight hundred meters.”
Ye Kunlun casually explained to Sasha.
“Only that much…”
Sasha murmured, comparing it to Ye Kunlun flying from Wucheng Airport to Kanda Town in one go, it was simply incomparable.
Ye Kunlun walked towards Kanda Town.
This border town, located in the depths of the Northern Border’s Gobi Desert, was much livelier than he had imagined.
As they walked, there were restaurants, inns, and specialty shops.
Sasha followed Ye Kunlun, explaining as they walked, “Sir, don’t think of Kanda Town as just a town; many tourists visit and check in every year.”
“Furthermore, the Tibetan Buddha Cave is less than a hundred kilometers from Kanda Town. That’s a must-visit attraction for anyone coming to the Northern Border, so most people heading to the Tibetan Buddha Cave will stop and stay in Kanda Town.”
“Additionally, Kanda Town is only about thirty kilometers from the Northern Border Battle Department, and people from the battle department occasionally drive over to relax.”
Sasha continuously introduced Kanda Town and its surroundings to Ye Kunlun.
Just then, Ye Kunlun spotted a familiar figure.
The other person also saw Ye Kunlun, and their small eyes instantly lit up.
“My lord, I’ve found you!”
With a loud shout, a plump, fleshy ball rushed towards Ye Kunlun.
It was none other than the fat man who had secretly climbed over the wall into Zifeng Courtyard back then and was caught by Ye Kunlun.
