The sun had just risen. While Ye Zhen was guarding the entrance of the War Soul Hall, the Qingzhou State City, home to the West Patrol Office, was thousands of miles away.
Weis Gang, the right-hand man of Xio Qiangu, who had been reassigned as the West Patrol Right Officer, hurriedly walked towards Xio Qiangu, who was enjoying breakfast in the Flower Hall.
"Master, the matters related to Ye Zhen over at Luoyi have been thoroughly investigated." Weis Gang presented a Jade Scroll wrapped in layers of sealing.
Xio Qiangu did not rush to read it but slowly savored the last bite of food, took a sip of rich Spirit Wine, and then picked up the Jade Scroll. Applying a Secret Technique, he dispelled the layers of sealing to examine its contents.
After only a few glances, Xio Qiangu's eyebrows raised.
"This Ye Zhen, he managed to get Wu Yu's help, and it's not a small effort. It seems Ye Zhen must have paid a significant price."
