Chapter 772
Cheng Dalei was still on his way back to Liangzhou.
After a rainfall, the roads had become muddy and hard to navigate, slowing down their journey.
Just like when they had set out, Liu Facai was driving the carriage, with Cui Baiyu and others sitting inside, while Cheng Dalei and Xu Shenji were riding their horses.
The slight difference was that their party had been joined by Qiao Nongyun, a relative of the Cui family.
One night, they rested at an abandoned Mountain God Temple. They lit a bonfire and cooked some dry food they had brought with them. Cheng Dalei watched the flickering flames, pondering: after his departure, how would Chang'an City react?
But it seemed to no longer be his concern. Once back in Liangzhou, he would be the ruler of his own domain, with the emperor far away and Li Letian no longer to be feared.
