It was still very early in the morning and the streets outside the city were very quiet. Murong Ye and the others drove on their horses at high speed.
Murong Ye looked towards Murong Xue who was riding a horse beside him, her face full of shock: “Sister, your horse riding skills are very good, from whom did you learn them?”
“You could say I learned to drive from the guards. I saw how magnificent they were while riding a horse and tried it myself several times. Not long after, I mastered it.” Murong Xue looked for the right reason to cover it up. As the heir to the Murong family in the 21st century, horseback riding classes are a must. He successfully passed the class brilliantly.
“So you just drove a few times and you mastered it? Sister, you are really professional!” Murong Ye praised with sincere admiration, “I have learned it from Uncle Hui. I can only make his horse run 2 rounds after half a month of teaching..”.
Murong Xue pretended to smile, “It was because you were young back then so you were slower at picking up things. I learned to drive a year earlier. I was much older back then, so that's why I was able to learn something faster.
Murong Ye's eyes shone with understanding, “You are right, if I train more, my horse's riding speed will increase greatly.
“Stop talking too much nonsense! Murong Ye, since your horsemanship is quite good, why don't we hold a little competition?” Murong Ji impatiently interrupted, his eyes shining with provocation.
Murong Ye's expression became moody and spoke gloomily, “This is my first day going to the army camp, I don't think I should. Maybe we'll compete next time when we have free time.”
Murong Ji sneered, “We're heading to camp. If we compete, it will only make the horses run faster so that we get to the goal early. I think you're just afraid of losing.”
Murong Ye's face reddened in anger, “Who's afraid of losing?! Then let's compete!”
He then slapped the neck of his horse hard and the horse was speeding. In an instant, he had left the group behind him.
Seeing the silhouette of Murong Ye and Murong Ji disappearing, Murong Xue shook his head: Murong Ji is Murong Jian's son. No doubt in the future, Murong Jian would help his son deal with Murong Ye.
But Murong Ye was simple-minded. Just because Murong Ji made him angry, he immediately approved of horse racing. The current Murong Ye was not a worthy opponent for Murong Jian and his son. He needed to endure hardships and be trained, only in that way could he grow stronger.
“Kuda, where are you going?!” panicked cries rang out in everyone's ears. Murong Xue flinched consciously and looked towards that shout. Murong Ye's horse went crazy and speeded on the road at a perfect speed. Murong Ye was like a fly stuck on a horse, passing through a bumpy road…
Murong Xue narrowed her eyes suspiciously, “What happened?”
“Something's wrong with the horse! I'll save young master!” Ge Hui said, and with a whip his horse ran towards Murong Ye.
“I'll save him too!” yelled Murong Jian. He also whipped his horse and drove towards Murong Ye. His eyes were emitting a sinister light. Although it disappeared in an instant, Murong Xue had seen it. Mouth grinned.
He thought that he would wait until he took root safely in the Zhen manor before slowly revealing his plan to obtain the position of heir, namely – killing Murong Ye.
Who knew that he bravely took action on the second day of his return! Moreover, he would do it in public! He was really brave and desperate to get the position of heir!
“Nona Murong, where are you going?” a deep voice asked.
Murong Xue turned her head and saw Cai Jin riding behind her. He frowned and replied in an annoyed tone, “Of course to save my brother!”
“I would've saved my sister by now if you hadn't said so much nonsense!” Murong Xue coldly responded and sped towards Murong Ye.
Cai Jin squinted his eyes and his eyes glowed. He then whipped his horse and drove beside Murong Xue. As they co-existed, he tried to seize control of Murong Xue's horse!
Murong Xue saw him coming and brushed off his hand. She looked at him coldly, “What do you think you're doing?”
Cai Jin's hands were reddened and slightly swollen. But still, he remains friendly, “Master has ordered me to keep you safe, he does not want you to risk your life.
Murong Jian wanted him to stop Murong Xue from interrupting his plan!
“It's my business, don't interfere! Scram!" Murong Xue whipped Cai Jin's horse which forced him to stay. He then used the opportunity to tighten his grip on the reins and continued onward to chase after Murong Ye.
In the distance, Murong Ye's horse was speeding faster and faster. The horse went crazy!
Murong Jian and Ge Hui were still chasing after him. Murong Jian had contacted him first. He reached out his hand and shouted, “Yes, your horse has gone mad! Quick, take my hand!”
"All right!" Murong Ye replied, his head dizzy from the trip. He leaned forward to grab Murong Jian's hand. Just when he touched the fingertips of his uncle, Murong Jian pulled his hand. Seeing that most of Murong Ye's body was in the air, he deliberately did so. Murong Ye's weight pressed him forward and he almost fell down.
It caught him off guard and he was now stuck upside down in the belly of his horse. He could fall at any time!
"Young Master!" Ge Hui shouted in surprise. He turned to stare coldly at Murong Jian, “Please step aside, let me save him.
“Don't argue about this, I have better driving ability than you! I'm the one who should have saved you!” Murong Jian cut him off, annoyed. He placed his horse between Murong Ye and Ge Hui, preventing Ge Hui from saving Murong Ye.
Ge Hui made several attempts to run forward but Murong Jian always blocked him. Ge Hui could not ride his horse together with Murong Ye. His eyes blazing with rage, “Murong Jian, immediately retreat!”
Murong Jian's expression darkened. Gazing straight at Ge Hui he said, “Ge Hui, you are just a slave from Zhen manor. Who gave you the courage to call me by my full name?!”
It was as if the mad horse had endless energy reserves as it continued to run. Murong Ye was still firmly attached to his stomach, swinging from each stroke of his steps. He would probably fall in the near future and that made Ge Hui despair from worry. Finally, he released the energy that slapped Murong Jian, “Side!”
“How dare you approach me, Ge Hui! Since you are so brave, I will see what you can do!” Murong Jian's eyes gleamed with hatred and released energy that struck Ge Hui. At that moment, the two began to fight…
Murong Xue laughed coldly inside. Murong Ye was caught between life and death, and Murong Jian did not plan to save him. He even hindered Ge Hui's efforts. Now that they had started fighting each other, Ge Hui would never be able to save Murong Ye. So clever! Even if Murong Ye died from falling off his horse, Murong Jian would not be blamed.
But what a pity, he'll be disappointed. Ge Hui could not save Murong Ye, but he could!
Murong Xue sped up his horse to overtake Murong Jian and Ge Hui…
