Chapter 149: Tracking Across a Thousand Miles

Fang Mingtong and Xu Zhongliang both had a peaceful sleep last night. It can't entirely be blamed on them, as their minds were mostly preoccupied with national affairs. Even though they both valued Chu Mo highly, it wasn't possible for them to monitor his every move every day.

However, after hearing the emperor's summary of last night's events, they both showed shocked expressions.

"Your Majesty, you're saying that Chu Mo, this lad, used the token I gave him to open the city gates and leave. And then, thousands of people from various sects chased after him in that direction?" Fang Mingtong's face turned incredibly serious. This Yellow Rank Sixth Layer Peak Iron Bone Realm marshal instinctively sensed that something was off.
