Riverlands, Trident.

Melisandre and his party parted ways with Bran and others here. They were going west along the river to Riverrun.

Bran, Arya, Sandor and Brienne, leading twenty the North soldiers disguised as Mercenary, will continue on Kingsroad and go south to King's Landing near Crownlands.

On the eve of separation, Bran and Arya bowed deeply to Melisandre, "Priest Melisandre, our mother's body... I leave it to you."

Melisandre bowed his head and returned the gift, "Master Bran, Princess Arya, this is the mission of my trip. I will definitely complete it, please rest assured. I hope Supreme God will light up your path forward and bless you for your safe return."

Bran and Arya nodded, "May Supreme God also protect you, Melisandre priest."

Sandor behind them whispered, "If you believe in Supreme God, you can get so many weird Magic. Maybe I should also believe in this weird and generous god."

Brienne mocked. "You are a selfish ghost who only seeks profit. No god will accept you, and you cannot truly serve any god."

Sandor couldn't help but look sideways and pursed his lips, "I didn't expect that we haven't been together for long, but you know me quite well. Don't waste your time. I can't stand your appearance. It's impossible for us."

Brienne moved away in disgust, "Disgusting."

The two teams parted ways and embarked on their own journeys.

Outside Riverrun, River Road.

A few days later, Melisandre and his party came near Riverrun.

Riverrun was besieged by three thousand Lannister troops and five thousand Riverlands princes' coalition forces, and ordinary people could not get close. Especially after the last incident, the Lannister side stepped up patrols to prevent any suspicious persons from approaching their military camp and Riverrun.

Melisandre stood on a high slope, looking at the military camp in the distance, choosing a route into the city.

At this time, a fat Raven landed at the feet of Melisandre. This Raven was surprisingly huge, and its standing height could reach Melisandre's waist.

Raven's body began to twist abnormally, and soon turned into a naked naked deer.

Melisandre returned Xiaolu's clothes and medicine bag to her, and asked, "How is it? In which direction is the defense weaker?"

Xiaolu put on his clothes, put on his medicine bag, and suggested. "It's all the same. But we can bypass these defenders by boat and enter Riverrun by water."

Melisandre folded his sleeves, shook his head and said, "No, we cannot completely avoid these troops, we must enter Riverrun under their noses."

Xiaolu tilted his head. "?"

Melisandre turned around and walked down the hillside, "In order to let the world know about the existence of Supreme God and show off Supreme God's magical power, this is also one of the purposes of our trip. How can we let go of such a good opportunity?"

She greeted the resting the North soldiers, and then said to Xiaolu: "Since the number of troops in the four directions is about the same, let's enter from the front and directly pass by Lannister's main camp."

In this way, they can get maximum attention.

Entering the city under the gaze of thousands of people made Xiaolu, who was slightly afraid of society, a little nervous. She swallowed, "Melisandre, are you sure?"

Melisandre thought about it for a while and said, "With my current Mana, it is impossible to kill all the thousands of troops outside the city. But it is more than enough to retreat without a trace."

In this way, she led Xiaolu, five the North soldiers, three siblings, Jenny, Westerling, and their mother's body out of the cover of the hillside.

They rode by Lannister's military camp and approached Riverrun in a grand manner.

"It's the team of scouts who escaped from Riverrun a month ago! Hurry, catch them!"

The familiar carriage and several familiar the North soldiers. No wonder these Lannister soldiers mistakenly thought they were Riverrun scouts.

Thousands of Lannister troops rushed over, holding their spears high, intent on killing all the accompanying soldiers and capturing the "scout leader" alive.

Melisandre prayed in a low voice, and two walls of fire rose into the sky and spread to Riverrun several hundred meters away.

Between the two fire walls is the passage she reserved in advance. Following this straight road, they can successfully reach the bottom of the city gate of Riverrun.

Lannister's cavalry reined in their horses and stopped in front of the fire walls on both sides. They looked at Melisandre inside the fire wall in horror, "She... that woman in white robe is a witch!"

Melisandre rode forward and said contemptuously to the Lannister cavalry outside the fire wall, "Stupid, ignorant, I am the priest of Supreme God, put away your blasphemous names!"

"Supreme God?"

Lannister The cavalry stopped outside the fire wall and watched Melisandre and his party gradually go away.

As these cavalry returned to camp, topics about "White-robed Witch", "White-robed Priest", "Flame God", and "Supreme God" gradually spread among the soldiers.

Some of them are talking about Supreme God's magical power, while others are discussing Melisandre's beauty...

At the top of Riverrun's city, "Blackfish" Brynden·Tully and Edmure·Tully also witnessed this magical scene with their own eyes. Two Flame walls hundreds of meters long were created out of thin air.

This miraculous hand of Fire Magic deeply shocked everyone.

Edmure was ecstatic. He knew that the other party was the priest of King in the North. He hurriedly ordered people to open the city gate and went down to greet him personally.

Melisandre and his party entered the city, and she and Edmure handed over matters concerning House Westerling.

When Edmure learned that Mrs. Xibel was involved with Red Wedding, he immediately became furious and kicked the coffin several times. Then he summoned soldiers and was about to imprison the three Jenny siblings in the dungeon.

Melisandre clasped his hands and said compassionately, "Praise my Lord, Supreme God is merciful. Your Majesty, Duke, means that you should not anger these three children. They have nothing to do with those conspiracies. You can continue to treat them like prisoners and use them as bargaining chips."

Edmure heard this and immediately changed his attitude. He asked the soldiers to take the three siblings of Jenny back to their original room and keep them under strict guard.

Then, he ordered people to take Mrs. Xibel's body to the Lannister military camp outside the city and give it to her husband Gawen·Westerling Earl.

After dealing with this, Edmure asked Melisandre in a soft voice, "Your Excellency, the priest, has traveled a long distance. Why don't you take a rest first? We will discuss the matter tomorrow."

Melisandre has long been accustomed to running around. She lifted her hood and said, "No, we can discuss Wights's matter now."

Edmure smiled awkwardly and said, "Okay, Your Excellency, Priest, come with me."

He led the way, followed closely by Melisandre and Xiaolu. The three of them walked towards Main Castle, probably going to the meeting hall.

"Blackfish"Brynden asked people to place the residences of the five the North soldiers, and then followed them to the meeting hall.
