Chapter 102: Return

"General, you have returned!"

Guangling, who was responsible for staying behind at the original location, hurriedly stepped forward to welcome them.

The few days Chu Feng had been away on the expedition had nearly bored him to death.

He very much wanted to follow Chu Feng to fight, but unfortunately, the unit he commanded was a heavy infantry troop.

"Mm, we have returned. How is the situation here?"

"Reporting to the General, everything is normal, and the construction progress is also quite rapid!"

"Mm, well done!"

Chu Feng praised him with a sentence, then asked, "By the way, how is that captured female assassin doing now?"

"General, according to your instructions, I sent her to transport bricks and stones, and at the same time, I dispatched two soldiers to supervise her!"

"Mm, very good!"

Chu Feng nodded.

This kind of person must be treated this way.

Exhaust all of her energy so that she has no heart to escape.

At the same time, do not let her come into contact with the people grazing the cattle and horses, so as to prevent the other party from seizing a horse and fleeing.

"General, there is one more matter here that needs to be reported to you!"

"Oh? What is it?"

"The envoy of Her Majesty the Empress has arrived. Yesterday, Lord Zhu specially sent someone to pass on the message, saying that the Empress's envoy has already arrived in Anwu County."

"Yo, the female BOSS has sent someone to inspect the work!"

"Hm?"

Guangling was immediately puzzled and asked on the spot, "General, what does 'female Persian' mean?"

"Oh! It just means leader, boss, the most powerful one."

"Oh, so that's it!"

Guangling secretly noted down this term.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Guangling, Chu Feng went to find Xu Hu.

Having been away for so long, he actually missed his cheap master a bit.

"Yo, you brat, you're back! How did the battle go?" Xu Hu said while pouring a bowl of wine for Chu Feng.

"Hehe, it was alright!"

Chu Feng took the wine handed over by Xu Hu, drank it in one gulp, and then recounted the situation he had encountered.

"Mm, you brat did well to stop while you were ahead. Fortunately, your Deputy General persuaded you in time; otherwise, you and the soldiers under your command definitely wouldn't have made it back!"

"How so? Is there really hidden power within this Star Moon Divine Sect?"

"Mm, there truly is!"

Xu Hu added another bowl of wine and said, "Fifteen years ago, I was traveling abroad and accidentally learned about the situation of the Star Moon Divine Sect from a close friend."

"According to him, the previous generation's Sect Leader of the Star Moon Divine Sect entered a life-or-death seclusion after completing the handover of the Sect Leader's duties. There are rumors that that generation's Sect Leader has already successfully broken through to the Martial Saint realm."

Holy crap!

Thank goodness I didn't kill that white-haired loli!

Chu Feng felt lingering fear.

If he had killed that person's disciple, wouldn't that person's master have rushed out to fight him to the death?

"So, you brat must keep your wits about you in the future; don't fight to the bitter end with people at every turn!"

"Alright, I understand!" Chu Feng responded.

It seems he still needs to accelerate the improvement of his own strength.

Only in this way can he continuously cope with the trials to come.

Just at this moment.

Guangling trotted quickly toward the command tent.

"Report to the General, the 'female Persian's' consolation envoy has arrived!"

"Hm?"

Xu Hu exclaimed and asked, "What? The 'female Persian's' envoy?"

"Oh, he is talking about Her Majesty the Empress's consolation envoy!"

Chu Feng glared fiercely at Guangling.

You brat really learned it and sold it immediately; you tried to draw a tiger but ended up with a dog.

"Uh..."

Guangling shrugged helplessly.

He had wanted to show off in front of his General, but ended up crashing and burning.

"Oh, so that's it! This term is quite rare indeed!"

Xu Hu continued, "Let's go, hurry and welcome the envoy."

"Alright!"

The few of them walked out of the tent together and headed straight outside.

Outside.

After Guo Xueping arrived with her consolation delegation.

Looking out, the mountains and plains were filled with herds of cattle and sheep.

The number of horses was also frighteningly large.

There must be at least over a hundred thousand of them.

"My goodness, this is probably the place with the most warhorses in Great Wei!"

Anwu Prefecture was once the horse-breeding ground of Great Wei.

Later, it was seized by the Turkic due to political instability within the country.

Consequently, Great Wei lost an important channel for fine warhorses.

Now, this place has been taken back by Chu Feng.

Great Wei once again possesses a breeding base for fine warhorses.

"Xueping, why are you here?"

"Hehe, if the eldest daughter of the Lu family can come, why can't I?"

"Hey, keep your voice down!"

Lu Shuwan looked around worriedly, "Are you doing this on purpose?"

"What, have they not discovered your cross-dressing yet?"

"Not yet!"

"Haha, impressive!"

Guo Xueping gave Lu Shuwan a thumbs up, "So, how far did you all fight this time? His Majesty is still waiting for good news from you!"

"This time, we fought all the way to the Hele Mountain of the Turkic, and at the same time..."

Lu Shuwan recounted their experiences to Guo Xueping.

After listening to the situation described by Lu Shuwan.

Guo Xueping could not help but break into a cold sweat for them.

"It is fortunate that you stopped it in time; otherwise, you would certainly have fallen short of success!"

Guo Xueping secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then added, "However, you have performed a great service this time. Not only did you retake Anwu Prefecture, but you also forced the Turkic to cede such a piece of land. If His Majesty learns of this, he will surely be overjoyed."

"It is all the General's merit; we were merely assisting!"

"Tsk tsk tsk!"

"Speaking up for your General so quickly, could it be that our eldest daughter of the Lu family has already... with the General you speak of?"

Guo Xueping winked at Lu Shuwan, a knowing, motherly smile appearing on her face.

"Non... nonsense! I... I didn't..."

Lu Shuwan instantly turned bright red from Guo Xueping's teasing.

She could barely speak clearly.

"General Chu Feng has arrived!"

Just at this moment.

Chu Feng and a group of generals appeared nearby.

"Subordinate Chu Feng pays respects to the Envoy!"

Chu Feng hurriedly saluted.

According to reliable information.

This person is the personal secretary to the Empress, so he must maintain a good relationship with her.

"General, please rise!"

"Thank you, my lady!"

Guo Xueping looked Chu Feng up and down.

On the way here, she had already learned about Chu Feng's situation from Zhu Kang.

Zhu Kang described Chu Feng as a man of great talent and handsome appearance.

With broad shoulders and long arms, sword-like brows and star-like eyes, a waist like a wild wolf, and a back like a fierce tiger.

His expression was full of heroic spirit; he was a rare and beautiful man.

Seeing him today, he was indeed extraordinary.

She even had the impulse to win him over herself.

"General Chu is truly a man of great talent, proficient in both civil and military affairs, and has achieved unparalleled merit. He is truly worthy of being a hero of our Great Wei!"

"You flatter me, my lady."

"General Chu, I have one more thing to ask. May I ask if the General can inform me?"

"Please ask, my lady. Your subordinate will tell you everything he knows without reservation!"

"Is the General married?"

After saying this, she did not forget to glance at Lu Shuwan not far away.

She saw that Lu Shuwan's eyes were blazing with fire.

If it were not for the soldiers around, she would have torn Guo Xueping to pieces.

Damn it!

Asking such a private question the moment she arrives!

What do you mean by that?

"In reply to your question, my lady, I am not yet married!"

"Oh? I wonder if the General has someone in his heart? If so..."

Guo Xueping still cast her eyes toward Lu Shuwan, "This envoy is willing to play matchmaker for the General!"

"This..."

Chu Feng was left with a face full of black lines by this secretary of the Empress.

What is this woman's game?

She came here but didn't ask about work, instead choosing to chat with him about family matters.

And why do her eyes keep glancing over at Lu Peng from time to time?

Right!

Lu Peng is quite good-looking, but he is a man!

He does not have that penchant for the dragon-yang, and he absolutely does not engage in homosexuality.

"My Lord, please do not tease this subordinate. This subordinate once swore an oath: until the Xiongnu are defeated, I shall not start a family!"

As soon as these words were spoken.

Everyone present was filled with solemn respect.

Lu Shuwan looked at Chu Feng with stars in her eyes.

"This is the man of my dreams!" Lu Shuwan thought to herself.

Guo Xueping was also deeply moved.

Her favorable impression of Chu Feng increased significantly.

"General Chu is truly an outstanding general of our Great Wei, single-mindedly devoted to the country and undisturbed by personal affections. I admire you, I truly do!"

"My Lord, you flatter me!"

I would like to, damn it.

But I am not a Martial Venerable right now, so I cannot lose my virginity, and the cultivation technique I am practicing is incomplete.

"My Lord has traveled from afar, please rest here. Tomorrow, I invite you to move on to Anwu County."

"Very well, I shall follow the General's arrangements!"

Just at this moment.

A soldier walked quickly toward Chu Feng.

"General, a young woman has appeared outside the stockade gate, and she is specifically asking to see the General."
