Chapter 634: We Are Traitors
A horse carriage slowly departed from Tianqing County, heading toward the Divine Capital.
Driving the carriage was a young martial artist dressed in black, a saber hanging at his waist. Inside the carriage sat more than one person - a husband and wife pair. The man had changed into the attire of a scholar for the first time.
On the other hand, the woman was an ordinary-looking woman whose appearance was not particularly striking.
The man sat with his eyes closed, resting, while the woman looked rather worried. She kept glancing at a small bundle in the carriage, her mind preoccupied with whether she had properly arranged everything at home. She fretted over whether last year's cured meat would be stolen by rats after her departure.
As for the few hens she had raised, she had reluctantly given them to the neighbors before leaving. Though she had asked them to take care of the chickens, she suspected she might never see them again. Thinking of this, her eyes turned somewhat red.
In all her years, she had never left that small county town, let alone journeyed thousands of miles to the unfamiliar Divine Capital.
She had heard that the magnificent city was the grandest under the heavens, but with such a vast city, the cost of living would be huge, right?
Worrying about the savings they had accumulated over the years, the woman felt so anxious that she was on the verge of tears.
“I don't want to go to the Divine Capital anymore.”
