The journey from Southern Mountain to the Capital City was a long one.
Southern Mountain lay to the south, while the Capital was in the north, the two separated by no less than four regions, a distance of ten thousand miles.
Ordinary merchant caravans would even need several months to travel to and from Southern Mountain and Capital City.
Han Zheng and his companions naturally did not need several months, but even without hurrying at full speed, it would still take a month to reach the Capital.
In fact, Han Zheng was also somewhat puzzled as to why Chen Baxian would travel neither hurriedly nor slowly, even resting every night when darkness fell.
During the journey, Han Zheng had asked Fang Henge and Wen Tingyun where they had gone.
The team led by Fang Henge, the Patrol Envoy, had vanished without a trace during the time when Han Zheng was in seclusion.
