This year, the first snow after Frost Descent arrived earlier than usual.
For those traveling, the weather was becoming increasingly unfriendly, but Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai didn't mind much; especially Sun Yixie, who being from Jiangnan rarely saw snow, so encountering it now was quite a novelty.
After Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai had discussed their plan to deal with Xiao Zhun with the heads of Yiyong Escort Agency in Anqiu, they hit the road again.
Their destination remained unchanged, continuing towards Huang Donglai's hometown. If all went well, Huang Donglai might even be able to celebrate the New Year at home.
The two of them did not encounter much delay on this leg of their journey. After leaving Anqiu, they followed the imperial road towards Jining, quickly reaching the borders of Yan State.
