Riding a horse indeed much faster than sitting in a carriage. Without feeling any jolts, they had traveled a great distance. Looking back, Clear Water Village and the two neighboring villages were now but faint silhouettes in the distance.
The horse was not running fast, and Ye Xinyan turned her head to ask, "Where do you plan to go? Is it still far?"
Jiang Yifan's response came close to her ear, "Not far, roughly two quarters of an hour away. There's a vast wilderness there, isolated from everything. I've passed it several times and have yet to see any traces of people."
Two quarters of an hour, which is half an hour away, might not seem too far but isn't exactly near either. Although Jiang Yifan's steed was not galloping, its pace was not slow; running like this for over half an hour, it would likely be close to noon by then.
