"Master!"

Dou Tianlai and his men were led by Meng Bufan and his men. When they were about to reach the camp, a handsome man led his men to greet them in a hurry.

The man was more than seven feet tall and had sharp eyebrows and starry eyes. He was handsome and his dark skin was full of positive energy. His sturdy but not exaggerated muscles gave people a sense of balanced beauty. His black hair cascaded down like a waterfall. It was all over his shoulders. He looked scholarly and wild. His wildness carried a bit of rationality as he looked from afar. It was as if a general of the battlefield, who would not die even after a hundred battles, had walked over with great strides. When he got closer, he took a look. Fang Zhi was a strategist in the strategizing department, with confident and firm steps. He gave people a confident attitude, as if everything was under his control.

"Disciple Lo Gucheng greets Master!" The man was naturally full of legends. He had fought for a long time and had not lost a single battle. That was why he was called the number one general of Great Chu. However, he had always been calm and composed. The first general, who could remain calm even when Mount Tai collapsed, after seeing Dou Tianlai. He could not help but lose his composure. He knelt on the ground and sobbed, "Disciple. . . Is unfilial. Knowing that Master had come, he did not welcome him from afar. I hope Master. . . Forgive me!"

One must never forget one's roots. For this master who had treated him so dearly since he was young, apart from respect, Lo Gucheng also respected him. Considering the time, it had been fifteen years since they had last met. Thinking back to all the things that had happened in the past, Lo Gucheng could not help but shed tears.

The reunion between the master and disciple was originally a touching scene. Just as everyone was thinking that Dou Tianlai would also cry silently, Dou Tianlai suddenly let out a cold snort and interrupted everyone's thoughts. Immediately, he did not even take a glance at him and took the lead to walk forward.

This time, even the Lo Gucheng was stunned. It widened its eyes and had a stunned expression. Immediately, it frowned, as if it was thinking about what mistakes it had made. This caused its master to be dissatisfied. The rest of the people present also racked their brains. Only Cui Ming, Lin Qing, and the rest, who were aware of the situation, sighed softly when they saw this. They understood Dou Tianlai's thoughts.

As his master, he had found out that there was a spy in his disciple's camp. This spy was very likely to be his disciple himself. Dou Tianlai's heart must have suffered a heavy blow. Especially when he found out that the elite army under his disciple's command was going to be disbanded because of this matter, it was because of the spies! Tens of thousands of hot-blooded soldiers lost the right to protect their country! He could not do anything about it. For a general who had always regarded the army as his people and loved soldiers as his sons, This was undoubtedly a stab in his heart.

Before coming here in the future, Dou Tianlai might be able to force himself not to think about this troublesome problem. However, after seeing the Lo Gucheng, he could no longer hide the truth. The bloody reality was about to be put on the table. His cold snort contained too many emotions. There was helplessness and oppression towards his own inability to change the current situation, as well as anger and pain towards his disciple's inability to monitor him, and even the self-theft of his disciple. But more importantly, there was a deep sense of regret towards those innocent soldiers who were implicated and no longer had the chance to protect their homeland. . .

"So Fourth Guard and Commander Lin are here too. Gu Cheng was blind and did not recognize the four of you at the first moment. I apologize for my rudeness. "

The Lo Gucheng was after all far from an ordinary person. After a brief moment of absent-mindedness, it quickly regained its calm. Only now did it see the Four Guards of Batian, Lin Qing, and the fifty thousand guards standing solemnly behind them. Its two beautiful sword-like brows tightened once again. It immediately covered it up and smiled as it apologized to Cui Ming and the rest.

It turned out that the letter sent back by the Imperial Court only mentioned the name of its benefactor, Dou Tianlai. But now that so many people had appeared all of a sudden, the Lo Gucheng immediately sensed that something was not right. Recalling his master's cold reaction just now, the Lo Gucheng dangerously narrowed his eyes. Indeed, the matter of him suddenly being allowed to return to his hometown was far from as simple as it sounded.

"Haha, General Lo and War Prince, a thousand years old master and disciple, have a deep relationship. It's understandable for them to reveal their true feelings for each other. " Cui Ming said with a smile.

"That's true. General Lo, you don't have to mind. " Lin Qing also gave a simple and honest smile.

"Thank you for your understanding!" The Lo Gucheng cupped his hands and thanked the four of them. After a moment of hesitation, he opened his mouth and asked: "That's right. I wonder if Fourth Guard can tell Gu Cheng that Master. . . Has encountered some trouble? Why is he so cold towards Gu Cheng?"

After he finished speaking, he saw that the four of them had troubled expressions on their faces. He smiled again, making them feel as if they were bathing in a spring breeze. He said, "It's fine. Gu Cheng was only curious for a moment before he asked. After all, it had been so many years. This was the first time Master showed this kind of expression, but seeing the expressions of the four of them. . . It seemed a little inconvenient. In that case. . . In that case, let's forget about it. It was Gu Cheng who suddenly appeared. Forgive me!"

"No, no, we should be the ones begging General Lo to forgive us. " The four of them heaved a sigh of relief at the same time. When the Lo Gucheng saw this, the doubt in his heart grew deeper.

After the small talk, everyone followed him back to the camp. The fifty thousand guards stayed outside the tent to wait for orders. Cui Ming and the rest followed Lo Gucheng into the tent.

A sumptuous feast had already been set up in the tent. When the Lo Gucheng learned that his master would be coming over these few days, he would specially order someone to set up a table to welcome him every time it was mealtime. He did not expect that it would finally come in handy today.

Without a doubt, Dou Tianlai sat in the main seat. Cui Ming and the others sat in a row on the left side. As for the Lo Gucheng, it sat on the second seat on his right. It could be seen that his master's mood was not very good, and the Lo Gucheng deliberately distanced himself from him.

The meal was quite enjoyable. Cui Ming and the Lo Gucheng were both good friends. They chatted and laughed together, and the atmosphere was not awkward at all. Although Lin Qing and the others were not good with words, they were good at drinking. Soon, they became friends with Meng Bufan and the others. There were always only two things a man could talk about. One was wine, and the other was a woman. However, for the soldiers who had been on the battlefield for a long time, there was one more thing. That was war. They just met and talked about national affairs. It was a bit disappointing after all, and it was not appropriate to talk about women at this moment. So the only thing that brought up the atmosphere at the moment was wine. No man did not like wine. It was like no woman wouldn't like to dress up.

Everyone was talking with smiles on their faces. The only thing that was not harmonious was that Dou Tianlai, who was sitting at the head seat, had a coffin face all along. He hadn't taken a sip of the wine in the cup ever since he filled it up. The invisible powerful aura that leaked out made the tough men in the army who were holding glasses of wine ready to pour wine at any time tremble so much that they almost couldn't hold the plates.

Speaking of which, this tough man was also a veteran who had followed Dou Tianlai for a period of time. That was why Lo Gucheng had specially found him to take on the role of accompanying the wine. Originally, he had thought that it was a good job. He was waiting to go back and show off to others. He did not expect that he would actually suffer such a misfortune at this moment. It really made his intestines green with regret. Speaking of which, it wasn't easy for this man to reach the Mid Period of Spirit Cultivating Stage. Now, he was only suppressed by a strand of the residual force that Dou Tianlai had unintentionally released. At the same time, it showed how powerful Dou Tianlai was. It was enough to show how restless his heart was at this moment.
