The two had no interest in worrying about the country and its people. They searched the palace, but unfortunately, they couldn't find a suitable eunuch.
Later, Zu'an realized that even the lowest-ranking eunuch should have mastered the art after decades of cultivation. At that time, he would not be unknown in the world of "Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber". He would probably be like the Dugu Nine Swords, only able to find a suitable successor in his later years.
Just then, they heard news on the street that the Mongol army had besieged Xiangyang, the reinforcements sent by the imperial court had been completely defeated, and the city of Xiangyang was in imminent danger of falling.
The two dared not delay any longer and hurriedly traveled day and night to Xiangyang.

Several Beggar Clan disciples desperately tried to protect her as she fled, but they were outnumbered and outmatched, and were slaughtered by the Mongol soldiers in the blink of an eye.
Numerous Mongol soldiers approached step by step, lewd smiles on their faces. Such a beautiful woman, they were truly blessed today.
Zu An could see clearly that the young woman was actually Guo Fu, and the shape of the object she was holding was none other than the Dragon Slayer Saber!
