Mo Xiao found a sheltered place and sat down with his back against a tree. His secret guards were spread out around him. At first glance, he looked no different from any ordinary soldier in this team and blended perfectly into this team. If the enemy attacked, they would not be able to find where the emperor was hiding in this team for a while.

Tuoba Xuan walked over and sat down near Mo Xiao. Getting closer to the Black River meant getting closer to Wang Ting's army. He could already sense the danger of the storm. At this time, staying by Mo Xiao's side was the safest.

Mo Xiao felt him approaching, opened her eyelids and looked at him, then closed her eyes again and fell asleep.

They didn't sleep too long and woke up when the sky was turning white.

Two hours of sleep is enough for this elite force to shake off their fatigue and face what is next in the best condition.

The team didn't even light a torch, and just relied on the little white light to rush all the way. They quickly completed the 20-mile journey.

Mo Xiao walked from the middle of the team to the front. At this time, the sky was already bright, and the sun was about to rise, and the first ray of sunlight was about to shine on this land.

He saw a river in the distance, running across the dense forest, dividing the huge jungle into two.

The river was surging, the water surface was black, and it seemed bottomless at a glance.

This river is the real dividing line between them and the royal court.

Tuoba Xuan was a little out of breath. He looked at the black river and whispered to Mo Xiao, "We are almost there. We can't see clearly if there are people hiding in the forest across the river."

It was easy to hide a team in such a dense forest, and they could not see anything across the Black River. Conversely, the other side would not easily notice the movement on this side of the river, and would not easily set foot on this side's territory. On this point, the two sides had a tacit understanding.

Mo Xiao hummed, raised his hand to stop the team, and ordered the people around him: "Send a pair of smart people to scout the way ahead."

The man agreed, selected a team of people, traveled light, and went forward quickly.

Mo Xiao and everyone else hid in the dense forest, waiting for the people who had scoured the way ahead to come back while they were resting.

About half an hour later, the sky was already bright and someone was seen moving quickly towards this side from afar.

Mo Xiao looked carefully and found that not only the people he sent out came, but also a particularly familiar-looking female general.

When he got closer, Mo Xiao saw clearly that this female general was someone close to Chen Yuan.

"Your Majesty, we found her as soon as we arrived at the Black River. She has been waiting for Your Majesty here." The person sent out reported quickly.

Mo Xiao hummed and looked at the female general.

"See Your Majesty."

"Get up and talk."

The female general stood up and said, "My general said that she is not feeling well and will not come to greet Your Majesty in person. Please don't blame Your Majesty."

Mo Xiao curled the corner of his mouth, thinking that even if your General Chen Yuan was not pregnant, she would probably be too lazy to deal with him.

Mo Xiao didn't bother with Chen Yuan, a wild man, and said calmly: "Where is she and what's the situation?"

The female general whispered, "My general... has already crossed the river."

Mo Xiao's eyes suddenly widened: "What?"

The female general was so frightened that her face turned pale and she began to stutter: "The general said, she said that Your Majesty was too slow and she was too lazy to wait any longer, so she crossed the river first and left me here to wait for Your Majesty."
