Xinzhou.
As if to match the gloomy mood, the city was enveloped in a downpour just as night fell.
Zuo Zhong, accompanied by Ye Chuang and others, was about to leave the house when they spotted someone galloping through the rain, their dark hair and light armor a blur, fast as the howling cold wind, which sent a chill through them.
"Is that the Great General?"
"The Great General is back."
Watching the figure in the rainy night, they felt shame wash over them.
The lady was missing.
They had scoured Liufeng Garden for miles around, nearly turning Xinzhou City upside down, yet they still couldn't find her.
As the horse's hooves came to a stop, Zuo Zhong stepped forward and bowed deeply.
"General, I have failed my duty…"
Pei Jue didn't speak, just wiped the rain from his face and handed the reins to Ye Chuang.
"Tell me carefully, what happened."
