Balancing on one shoulder, Gu Chaoyan moved with the agility of a swallow.
In no time, she returned.
Despite the darkness, Southern Mist's soldiers and generals patiently awaited her arrival.
Upon seeing their dedication, Gu Chaoyan couldn't help but feel touched. She gently lowered the man from her shoulder and explained, "I managed to seize two of Chengqi's generals, but I couldn't defeat him, so I returned."
"…"
"These two alone could prove valuable assets for us."
"…"
"Put them away for now and get some rest. We'll discuss our strategy tomorrow," Gu Chaoyan casually suggested.
Her nonchalant tone left the Southern Mist soldiers wide-eyed in astonishment.
This was the first time they had followed such a fearless and capable general.
It seemed as if there was nothing they needed to do; she had handled everything effortlessly.
