"WHAT?!"

Returning to the Gu Mansion, the family of Second Uncle Gu Chengfeng was shocked to learn that Gu Chen was going to Youzhou to oversee its security.

The death of the Jing Tian Department's guardian in Youzhou was an absolute secret. At this stage, it could not be leaked. Youzhou was already on lockdown, and given the current chaos in the world, transmitting the news back to Tiandu or other states would take quite some time.

Gu Chen could not possibly tell Second Uncle Gu Chengfeng and his family about this. They had no idea how dangerous Youzhou was.

Their shock was simply because, given the world's current state of turmoil and disasters everywhere, they feared that Gu Chen might encounter unforeseen dangers on his journey to Youzhou.

Gu Chen smiled reassuringly, "After all, I am the Tian-ranking Commander of the Jing Tian Department. Currently, the Jing Tian Department has given me a task that I cannot refuse, Second Uncle. You should understand this."
