Upon realizing what had happened, it now seemed unnecessary to hurry and catch up.
Wu Yuemei let out a sigh; she decided not to meddle further. With Cheng Zhihai accompanying, at least Guanger wouldn't encounter any accidents on the way.
As she pondered this, Wu Yuemei stood up and returned to her room.
...
Meanwhile,
just as Cheng Zhihai, stepping on Qi, transformed into a streak of light and was pursuing the direction of the departing Flying Boat of Cheng Guang,
within the Great Zhou Imperial Palace,
Emperor Zhou, who was burning incense in Taihe Hall's side chamber bedroom, paused in his actions and lifted his eyes towards the direction where Cheng Zhihai had left, nodding slightly.
"Zhao Jin, go follow them now,"
"Begin with a decoy to attract Zhihai's attention. Based on my familiarity with Zhihai, I know he wouldn't ignore the Qi rising from within the Imperial Palace and would surely follow."
