The Hunted Hunter
Chapters 120. Back to the Capital City of the Qi Kingdom
Finally Ma Guang arrived at the place that had been provided for his troops by the ruler of Nanpi city.
The troops who saw his arrival immediately greeted him with a salute to the young man.
Ma Guang went straight to Xia Jiao and Yuan Jiali.
"Miss Xia! Miss Yuan! Are you ready to make the journey to return to the royal capital?". Ask Ma Guang.
"Damn it! Just arrived, only those words were the first to come out of his mouth". Xia Jiao muttered in her heart.
"Why? What words should I say?". Ask Ma Guang.
Xia Jiao's face immediately reddened upon hearing what the young man had said. The girl only realized that Ma Guang could hear the inner voice of everyone who was close to her if her perception was increased.
Now Xia Jiao no longer wanted to mumble and bow down in embarrassment.
Yuan Jiali who heard all that, now could only remain silent and could not also mumble.
Ma Guang immediately repeated the previous words.
"Are you two ready to return to the royal capital?".
"Yes!". Briefly answer both.
"Then, get all the commanders of the army to prepare their own troops because we will begin our journey". Ma Guang.
"Good". Say those two girls.
The two of them walked over and left the place.
After feeling their position was already far away from Ma Guang, Xia Jiao finally raised her voice.
"That person's mind seems inconsistent, a time ago he treated us very gently and affectionately. But after he returned from his sect, it seemed that his stance had changed".
"If I think, he does not change, because that is what his nature and behavior are. While carrying out her duties and responsibilities, she was always serious, but if she talked about matters personally between the three of us, she would behave like what Miss Xia and I felt".
"Yes! It is like that, but we also expect attention and affection from it". Xia Jiao.
"Maybe there's something else he's thinking about, so his attitude is always like that". Yuan Jiali said in response to Xia Jiao's words.
The way the two girls think is very different. Xia Jiao is younger than Yuan Jiali, so Yuan Jiali's thinking is more mature than him, what else Xia Jiao from a small life is always spoiled by both parents.
Suddenly a voice came from behind the two girls.
"Yes! Indeed, I always thought that we could quickly complete this mission of ours and return to the sect to re-improve our abilities. Is that wrong according to you?".
Hearing the voice, the two girls quickly turned their faces to look towards the source of the incoming voice.
"You're tailing us?". Ask Xia Jiao.
Yuan Jiali remained silent.
"Yes! Because I want to hear every word that will come out of Miss Xia's mouth". Ma Guang.
"So you heard it?". Ask Xia Jiao.
"Yes! I've heard it". Answer Ma Guang.
Hearing the reply given by the young man, Xia Jiao's face immediately reddened in embarrassment.
"So you need my attention and affection? All righty! I'll give you all that, but surely we must quickly finish our task first". Ma Guang.
"Which task?". Ask Xia Jiao.
"The task given by the king of Qi Guan Zhong". Answer Ma Guang.
The faces of the two girls instantly turned cheerful.
Ma Guang immediately smiled after the two girls left.
"Which man doesn't want to approach beautiful girls like you?". Ma Guang muttered in his heart while shaking his head staring at the departure of the two girls.
Ma Guang immediately walked to the palace of the ruler of Nanpi city to inform him that his entourage would soon return to the royal capital.
The city authorities immediately agreed, because the border area bordering the kingdom of Yan is safe and controlled.
It was caused because the pillar of strength of Yan kingdom had just been destroyed by Ma Guang group.
And after hearing also that Ma Guang had already become a general in the Qi kingdom, the king of the Yan kingdom immediately reminded his generals not to offend the Qi kingdom, for there would be a bad thing if the Qi kingdom attacked their kingdom.
After Ma Guang returned from the city's ruling palace, the young man headed straight to the place where his troops had prepared to travel.
Eventually Ma Guang's army left Nanpi to head to the royal capital.
Their entourage of troops would pass through five cities first so that it could arrive at Yingqiu city, which was the capital of the Qi kingdom.
The entire Ma Guang army traveled on horseback.
Their journey will pass through first the city of Qiantong and will rest overnight in the next city, which is the city of Laoling.
After that they will also travel and rest overnight again in Qiansheng city.
Qiansheng City itself was already in Linzi province who stayed all day to travel until arriving at Yingqiu city.
They would pass through Le'an city as well as Bochang city before arriving at Yingqiu city.
While the situation in the border region between the Lai kingdom and the Qi kingdom, it can now be controlled by the troops of the Qi kingdom.
Pingcheng City, which was once controlled by the Lai royal army, is now controlled by the Qi kingdom army led by the Tian Ju general and also the Fan Gui general.
After traveling for three days, Ma Guang's entourage finally arrived in front of Yingqiu's city gate.
The troops tasked with guarding the city gate, instantly gave way to their entourage to enter the city of Yingqiu.
All the commanders as well as the troops who were in that place immediately greeted Ma Guang with a respectful manner.
Ma Guang immediately replied to him by cupping his hands and continued on his way into Yingqiu city to head to the territory of the Qi royal palace.
A little while later, finally their army entourage entered the territory of the royal palace.
They were also greeted with respect by the soldiers who were on guard along the way until finally their entourage arrived in front of the Qi royal palace.
A soldier immediately reported to the king the arrival of Ma Guang.
After the soldier returned, he immediately invited Ma Guang to enter and face the king.
The young man along with the two girls beside him along with the army commanders directly entered the royal palace.
They immediately saluted the king, and the king immediately invited them to sit in the chair that was available in the room.
Ma Guang immediately reported every incident that occurred when they did the task that had been given by the king and also he also immediately informed his intention to the king to resign from the position he had been in give it to him by the king.
Hearing that, the face of king Qi Guan Zhong instantly turned into displeasure again.
"Why do you want to resign from the position I have given you? Do you want to step up?". Said the king.
"Your highness! The servant did not think at all like that, but the servant only wanted that the servant could focus again on becoming a martial arts expert". Ma Guang.
"General Ma! I always hope that you can continue to serve the position that I have given". Said the king.
"Please, your highness! But the servant felt the responsibility given by his majesty, I could not bear, because it was too heavy for the servant". Ma Guang said to find a reason for the King to accept his resignation.
