Zhuang Country's Xin'an City.
Before the ancestral hall, an elderly man knelt, unable to rise.
In the vast expanse of Xin'an City, few recognized him.
But had it been in the old Maple Forest City Region, he was almost universally known.
For he was none other than the former City Lord of Maple Forest before Wei Quchibi.
His governance was known to be generous, benevolent, and diligent.
During his tenure in the Maple Forest City Region, he had traversed every town, every village on foot—an accomplishment Wei Quchibi had never achieved. Indeed, no other City Lord in the entirety of Zhuang Country had ever done the same.
In those days, at the age of thirteen, Du Yehu killed a man in court, and it was he who personally oversaw the case reversal. He even sent Du Yehu to the Taoist temple for nurturing, which led to the now rising reputation of Lord Du in the Nine Rivers Mystic Armor.
