Yongyuan County, Lin Yuan City.
The General's Compound.
Sun Zhilan walked along the quiet path, surrounded by trees with yellowing leaves, as autumn had stealthily arrived without notice.
A gentle breeze caressed the branches, causing them to sway and rustle, as leaves drifted down to blanket the ground.
That was when she reached her destination, an unremarkable little courtyard.
Standing before the courtyard gate, she briefly composed her thoughts and suppressed the feeling of awe within her heart.
She was about to reach out her hand to knock gently on the door.
Creak~
The courtyard gate slowly opened.
At the same time, a figure clothed in a gold-patterned profound robe appeared before her.
"What brings you here?"
Qin Zheng gazed at Sun Zhilan with calm eyes and spoke.
Sun Zhilan was immediately flustered, the words she had prepared in her mind vanished in that moment.
"Ah I I I..."
"That's right! The master has summoned you!"
