The soldier leading the way was named Chi Rui. When Emperor Wu Su was still General Dingbei, Chi Rui had been a soldier under his command.
Chi Rui glanced at Ji Qingwu. The woman of unknown identity accompanying the Emperor looked a bit familiar, but he couldn't recall where he had seen her before.
Chi Rui did not answer her question. He stood aside with a solemn expression, only to hear Emperor Wu Su, who was standing at the very front, speak.
"Yes."
Though it was just a single word, the few soldiers inside the storehouse could all hear the gentleness in Emperor Wu Su's tone.
Chi Rui couldn't help but steal another glance at Ji Qingwu, and Emperor Wu Su's frigid gaze swept over to him.
Chi Rui hastily lowered his head, mentally running through every mistake he might have made in the past few days that could have displeased Emperor Wu Su.
Ji Qingwu stared at the wild wolf's eerily glowing green eyes and frowned in displeasure.
