No sooner had Tang Jiuzhao's figure disappeared than Zhu Ying rushed over from outside.

"Sect Master! Why are you in such a hurry to summon Cuiyu back? Is there something urgent you need to tell me?"

"Cuiyu, pack your things. We'll set off tomorrow to return to the capital."

The Tang Emperor's cousin has gone missing, and now her father has come here specifically to look for her.

This matter concerns the reputation of the Free and Unfettered Sect and must not be neglected.

Although Cuiyu didn't know why Gu Qianlu was in such a hurry, she had always obeyed her superiors' orders completely since she became Chen Jinheng's bodyguard.

Now that Gu Qianluo is her boss, she naturally obeys her every command.

"Alright! Don't worry, Sect Leader! Cuiyu will prepare everything that needs to be prepared!"

The following day, after disguising themselves, Gu Qianluo and Zhu Ying boarded a carriage bound for the capital.

After a half-day of running, Gu Qianluo and Zhuying finally returned to Shangjing before the city gates closed.

Just then, the two men encountered the victorious soldiers returning from the front.

Wherever the soldiers went, they were met with praise and songs. When the people saw them, they lined up on both sides to welcome them.

They were clad in armor, wielding long spears, and carrying large banners bearing the character "Chen" on their shoulders, exuding an imposing and heroic aura.

"Look! It's the victorious army that quelled the rebellion on the frontier returning!"

Gu Qianluo's brow twitched slightly, and she looked up at the place the person had mentioned.

At the very front of the group stood a tall and imposing man with eagle-like eyes, a stern expression, and an air of grandeur.

He wore a long swallowtail crown, a golden armor robe, held a seven-foot-long spear, and wore golden python boots. His whole body exuded an aura of majesty.

Just one glance at him is enough to send chills down your spine.

"It's him!" Gu Qianlu was startled.

After regaining his senses, he realized that the imposing general who had just passed by was none other than Chen Jinheng!
