Chu Mo and Miao Yi Niang had already traveled over a thousand miles away from the Immortal. Recalling previous scenes, Miao Yi Niang couldn't help but softly complain to Chu Mo: "You were too tripling to my master back then... At least you could have gone on for a hundred and eighty rounds before defeating her. Who does that, suppress someone with one move and made them kneel on the ground in such a humiliating manner."

Chu Mo glanced at Miao Yi Niang: "If wasn't for her kindness towards you, my sister, I would have wished to slap her harshly! That venomous woman uses harsh words as daily routine, as if she is superior to everyone in this world. Not to mention all of her troubles, she deserves to be beaten even without those incidents!"

"That's enough, no matter what, she is still my master, and in the end, didn't she choose to let go after understanding the cause and effect of things?" Miao Yi Niang gently consoled.

Chu Mo sighed: "If it weren't for Xingxue's mother and my strength, I guarantee that today's result would not be like this."

Miao Yi Niang remained silent for a while, she also knew what kind of person her master Shen Aobing was, but Heaven gave him parents, and a master, and even if her own teacher has countless faults, what could she say?

However, recalling the recent battle, Miao Yi Niang still felt incredible, she never thought that Chu Mo had grown so much in a few years.

Even the head of the mighty Immortal could not withstand a single hit from him!

It seemed that what Chu Mo said before was not bragging, and it might even... have been an understatement.

However, whenever she thought of her master's look, from shock to disbelief to confusion, and finally to despair, Miao Yi Niang always felt somewhat distressed. But she knew that Chu Mo had actually shown mercy.

He only made her kneel on the ground, and... it was not directed at Chu Mo, but rather towards Shen Aoshuang's direction.

As for whether Chu Mo did it on purpose, Miao Yi Niang did not want to think too much about it.

Soon after, Chu Mo and Miao Yi Niang met up with the rooster and Huang Hui, and headed towards the Chu Kingdom.

Even if everyone was no longer there, that place was still his home after all!

Moreover, many people's affairs were still unresolved.

And the tens of thousands of huge armies of the Chu Kingdom!

They are now without a leader.

All of these constituted one humongous mess.

At that time, Chu Mo did indeed have the impulse to let go, because with his current realm, where couldn't he go in this vast world?

As long as he practiced normally and accumulated enough materials for the Five Elements' foundation, he could ascend directly to the Spirit Realm!

But if so, how could he face those who sacrificed everything for the Chu Kingdom?

Chu Yan, Wang Dafa, Xu Fufu, He Xu...

Those vivid faces kept appearing in front of him, their voices, appearances, and laughter still lingering in his ears.

If he gave up like this, if he left like this, Chu Mo didn't think he could explain it to anyone.

Thinking of his grandfather, and his young uncle Fan Zhiyuan who had not yet had the chance to enjoy the wonders of this world, Chu Mo felt as if his heart was being cut with a knife.

It was laughable, he even wanted his young uncle to become the king of the mortal realm in the future, but in the end... he inexplicably lost his life.

And all of this was because of him!

Chu Mo was heartbroken, guilt-ridden, and in utter despair.

This feeling, although somewhat relieved by seeing Miao Yi Niang, was buried even deeper in his heart.

It's as if he had grown a lot overnight.

"Let the living take care of what you haven't finished."

"I will help you fulfill your unfulfilled wishes."

"One day, I will return here with the head of the one who killed you and pay homage to you!"

Standing outside the Royal City of Chu Kingdom, Chu Mo said silently in his heart.

Miao Yi Niang stood by the side, looking at Chu Mo's side face, and suddenly noticed that there were some white hairs amidst Chu Mo's fluttering hair.

Her heart trembled slightly, feeling like crying, but she held back.

She didn't want to cry in front of him at this time, he was already tired enough, he had endured enough, she didn't want to add more chaos at this moment.

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared atop the watchtower of the royal city of the Chu Kingdom, looking at Chu Mo and the others from a distance, bellowing loudly: "Who is it?"

There once was a time when the Royal City of Chu was a bustling city that never sleeps, without even a curfew, it was bustling and prosperous; but now it was like a ghost town, not a single person was seen here, and the entire city was shrouded in death.

But surprisingly, someone showed up at this time.

Chu Mo was also surprised, he didn't use his divine sense to look out before, but he didn't expect anyone to come back here at this time.

"I am Chu Mo." Chu Mo said solemnly.

"Ah? Chu...King Chu? You are Your Majesty King Chu?" The man on the tower appeared to be incredibly excited, immediately knelt down with a thump, but was blocked by the wall of the tower, hurriedly ran down from the tower, came to Chu Mo and knelt down on the ground: "Subordinate Tao Shifang greets Your Majesty King Chu!"

"Are you so sure it's me?" Chumo asked, recalling that he had some impression of this man in front of him, who was originally a low-ranking officer in the mining battalion.

"The portraits of your majesty were circulated among the army a long time ago. Everyone from the general up had one to worship every day and night! The soldiers' barracks were also worshiped. Therefore, I recognized you." Tao Shifang answered loudly, but did not mention that he recognized Chu Mo back in the era of the mining battalion.

What a truly smart man! Chu Mo thought.

"Then, how did you happen to be here?" Chu Mo asked.

"I heard something had happened here and immediately led 3,000 men to rush back to help, but I didn't expect... when we returned, we faced an empty city." Tao Shifang's tears couldn't help but fall: "My family was in this city, but they all disappeared... I had no idea what had happened, so I had to stay here, waiting for others and in case anyone tried to seize the city."

Chu Mo patted Tao Shifang on the shoulder, sighed, and didn't know how to comfort him.

At this time, Miao Yi Niang said nearby: "General Tao, do you know how much military power we still have in the Chu Kingdom?"

Tao Shifang took a cautious look at Miao Yi Niang, then hurriedly lowered his head and replied cautiously: "The military hasn't suffered much loss, Except for the city defense forces in the royal city, the other forces are still there."

Miao Yi Niang nodded: "Which means, our power in the mortal world still exists, it's not so easy for others to oppress us, right?"

A proud look appeared on Tao Shifang's face, saying: "Of course, even if Great Xia wants to take advantage of the situation and attack, we will surely banish them!"

At this time, Miao Yi Niang looked at Chu Mo.

Although the two had not been together for years, their understanding of each other was still their strong suit.

Chu Mo immediately said: "General Tao, I now appoint you...as the Protector of Chu Kingdom! Now, there is only one thing you have to do, and that is to protect this royal city!"(To be continued.
