Beiliang County, situated in the northwest of the Empire, would require approximately ten days of travel at full speed along the official path from the Imperial City.
Even if they managed to reach Beiliang County within ten days, setting aside the safety of Jiang Xiaofan's family, it was likely that the murderous Demon had already left Beiliang County by then.
Therefore, after some discussion, Goo Tengfeng, as the captain of this Demon Hunting Team, decided to enter the Heavenly Position Mountain Range and head directly northwest. Doing so would provide a shortcut, allowing them to reach Beiliang County within three days!
However, delving into the forest would inevitably mean entering the territories of high-level beasts. Hence, though the shortcut was fast, it came with significant risks.
Jiang Xiaofan was nearly driven mad with urgency; he could not wait ten days, so he chose without hesitation to take the shortcut through the Heavenly Position Mountain Range.
