After annihilating the Wei Empire's forces and enjoying lunch with Emperor Qing Cheng, Zhang Yu, Zhang Lao and Xin Wang returned to Luan City. Qing Yue did not come with them as she had to return to the palace of the Qing Empire.
In one of the teahouses, Zhang Yu and Xing Wang were enjoying the best drinks in the place. Zhang Lao who disliked tea in the form of drinks, he chose to sleep on his master's lap.
“Master, we still have a few more days before going to the Middle Continent. In the next few days, do we remain silent in this city?” xin Wang asked as he sipped the tea of his order.
“We will begin to travel to the Imperial Capital, passing other routes, so as not to meet the entourage of Emperor Qing Cheng,” Zhang Yu replied.
“Why go the other route? Isn't it going to take longer?” xin Wang asked curiously at his master's goal.
“I don't want to meet with their entourage, and again I want to have a little adventure before leaving this Continent,” Zhang Yu replied as he showed a faint smile on his face.
“If it's Master's wish, I'll follow him.” Xin Wang had no intention of refuting, and whatever Zhang Yu's decision he would follow.
“Simmediately spend what you have ordered! This afternoon we will also leave this city,” said Zhang Yu, who had finished his drink.
Xin Wang nodded his head, and with just one quick movement, all the drinks and food had entered his stomach.
‘Maybe he has an extra bag inside his stomach’ Zhang Yu said inwardly, then he left the teahouse with Xin Wang following.

Wang City, the Imperial Capital of Wei.
The news of Wei Lou's death along with the rest of the Generals, and hundreds of thousands of their troops had reached Wang City. Instead of being sad, many people were happy after hearing the news, and only a handful of people felt sad. Especially the people who had benefited a lot thanks to their cooperation with Wei Lou's side.
More people were harmed by Wei Lou's decision since serving as Emperor, which is why people were happy with his death.
The extinction of Wei Lou's figure and the people who went with him attacked the Qing Empire, making many people flock to leave the territory of the Wei Empire, moving to the territory of the Qing Empire. Some Kingdoms also chose to break away from the Wei Empire, and switched to being part of the Qing Empire.
“If this continues, this Empire will collapse in the next few days,” said Wei Lian, crown prince of the throne of the Wei Empire.
“Sir, how about we re-establish good relations with the Qing Empire? It's not that my Master used to have a good relationship with princess Qing Yue!” reply old man, an Imperial advisor.
“We used to be close, but it was just a friend, and again the relationship had to end after his father found out,” Wei Lian said.
“According to the servant, princess Qing Yue has long put her heart on you, but she shyly expresses her feelings, and it seems like you also have the same feelings,”, said the woman beside Wei Lian, who was one of his concubines.
“I do love it, and the position of the Empress is indeed only worth giving to her.” Wei Lian smiled confidently.
“Grandfather, immediately prepare the needs for long-distance travel! This afternoon also I will go to Qing Empire,” he said giving orders.
“Okay my lord, I will prepare all the necessary necessities.”The old man immediately left the Wei Lian residence.

The entourage of Emperor Qing Cheng.
Qing Cheng was in one carriage with her daughter who kept bending her face after parting ways with Zhang Yu. Seeing such a scene Qing Cheng could only sigh, and felt regret for having separated her daughter from the young man who had saved her Empire.
“Don't keep bending your face! In the next few days, you can meet the young man again,” Qing Cheng said trying to comfort her daughter.
“I know that, but I am now very upset that I cannot hug the white guy,” said Qing Yue who wanted Zhang Lao to come with her, but the cat just kept sticking to her master.
“There is no Zhizhi you can hug? qing Cheng asked, with eyes staring at the bracelet on his daughter's arm.
“Zhizhi is cultivating to increase her strength. So, he cannot change his form, and become a friend that I can hug,” said Qing Yue who felt comfortable as her body came into contact with Zhang Lao's fine fur.
“How about you buy a female cat in the city we will pass?” ask Qing Cheng.
“That's a very good idea,” reply Qing Yue was happy with her father's idea.
Seeing her daughter smiling again, Qing Chen asked the coachman to speed up the train, as he wanted to quickly get to the nearest city, and buy her what her daughter wanted.
‘I don't know since when did he become a cat lover, but it's better than in just loving weapons and practice. Already she should have loved something more that showed her identity as a woman’ Qing Cheng said in her heart.
At the speed of a ten-horse-drawn carriage, within half a day, they would arrive at the nearby city, which was only a day's journey by horse carriage, from the Imperial Capital of the Qing Empire.

One day passed quickly.
In a forest filled with only ordinary animals, two men and a white cat were enjoying the grilled meat, which was only burned without any extra seasoning. Even though it tastes bland, they still eat it.
“Tuan.” Xin Wang called Zhang Yu as he sensed the movement crossing the road near their resting place.
Zhang Yu who was eating pieces of grilled meat, momentarily stopped his activity, and tried to feel the aura released by several figures that were only less than a kilometer away from him.
He resumed his activities, after not feeling the threat of some figures moving, towards the direction of the goal.
“Just ignore them. While not bothering us, they must have survived until their destination,” said Zhang Yu who immediately finished his meal.
[Master, I feel that there is one of them who has a demonic aura within his body, but it is very thin, and almost invisible.]
“Do they have anything to do with the Wei Empire? Or are they the rest of the soldiers who managed to escape?” zhang Yu asked in his mind.
[From the auras that came out of their bodies, there was a resemblance to Wei Lou's original aura, one of them seemed to have a blood relation with that Emperor, but the demonic aura I felt did not come from him.]
Slowly Zhang Yu nodded after hearing that. “From the direction they're heading, it looks like I know what their destination is. However, I don't know what they want to do in the Qing Empire. If their arrival has bad intentions on the inhabitants of the Imperial capital, it will happily annihilate them,” Zhang Yu said with a cold aura that suddenly seeped out from within his body.
“Master, what is going on? Why are you suddenly smiling? Is there something funny?” asked Xin Wang streak who felt that there was an oddity when she saw her master suddenly smiling for no reason.
“Nothing, I just imagined how fast our strength grew after being in the Middle Continent, but for now we better go back on the journey, and if we can we have to get ahead of the group that just passed,” said Zhang Yu.
“Good Sir,” Xin Wang and Zhang Lain answered almost simultaneously, then they went after Zhang Yu after putting out the former burning fire.
