When Gu Xu, riding his battle-worn and scarred Lightning Bird, finally reached the Northern Territory, Chen Jiuge and the others had already cleared the battlefield.
Looking at the peaceful Northern Territory, Gu Xu wondered, Could it be that the Demon Clan didn't attack the Northern Territory?
"Duke, the Grand Duke has arrived."
"The Grand Duke?" Chen Jiuge echoed, startled for a moment. He then remembered that Elder Brother Gu Xu's title was indeed the Grand Duke and immediately instructed Anderson to welcome him.
Seeing the bleak expression in Gu Xu's eyes, Chen Jiuge asked in surprise, "What happened to you, Elder Brother Gu?"
Gu Xu, equally puzzled, looked towards Chen Jiuge, his gaze lingering on Chen Jiuge's slowly healing right hand. "Junior Brother, did you manage to repel the Demon Clan here?"
"Yes, I killed all of them and captured the leading Demon Generals," Chen Jiuge replied.
