"They're back!"
"The Flame King is returning to the capital in triumph!"
"The grand army of our Qin Kingdom is about to enter the city!"
In the Imperial City of the Qin Kingdom, citizens shouted one after another, their faces filled with excitement.
Not only that, but many young ladies from distinguished families also came out of their homes. They took to the streets, standing on their tiptoes and peering forward excitedly, hoping to catch a glimpse of the handsome young general.
Meanwhile, outside the Imperial City, Xiao Mo rode on horseback beside Qin Huo.
Xiao Mo looked up and saw the towering gates of the Imperial City.
Qin Huo glanced at Xiao Mo beside him and said with a smile, "Xiao Mo, why don't you put on your mask?"
Xiao Mo asked, confused, "General, we're not heading into battle. Why would I wear a mask?"
"Just put it on because I told you to," Qin Huo said in a half-joking tone. "You're still my soldier, you know. You have to obey military orders."
