With a warehouse full of supplies, I stood alone as king in this chaotic world, gun in hand.

When they were almost at Lindong Pass, Nangong Wu put away the helicopter and the group switched to horseback to enter Lindong City.

In the past few days, the five wounded soldiers have used her medication and their injuries have recovered very well.

Nangong Wu's own facial scars are almost healed, but she still has silicone scar patches on, which she will need to wear for at least three months.

"Whoa!" Nangong Wu pulled on the reins and looked up at the majestic Lin Dong city gate tower.

The original owner had accompanied his father to Lindongguan many times and was quite familiar with the place.

Lindong City borders the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and there has been constant warfare for a century. The people who once lived here suffered greatly from the war and fled the area.

But ever since the first Zhenyuan King, who was also Nangong Wu's grandfather, led the Zhenyuan Army to guard this place, Lindong Pass has never been breached again. More than forty years have passed, and the place has returned to its former prosperity.

Just then, Nangong Wu saw a familiar figure, removed her veil, and shouted, "Uncle Geng! I'm here!"

Geng Wu was promoted by his mother; he was a third-rank general and a valiant general.

Upon hearing her voice, the soldiers on the city gate all looked down.

The original owner last came here three years ago, and some of the soldiers guarding the city gate still remember her.

"It's Princess Runing..." Geng Wu recognized Nangong Wu at a glance and exclaimed with delight, "Princess Runing is here!"

These words were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples all around.

"Is Princess Runing here?"

"Really? Where?"

The soldiers rushed to the city wall to see what was happening.

"Princess Runing is here! Princess Runing has come to see us..." Geng Wu shouted as he ran down the city wall.

"Princess Runing is here! Princess Runing has arrived at Lindong Pass!" The soldiers spread the news.

In no time, the news of Princess Runing arriving at Dongguan spread like wildfire.

Before Nangong Wu even entered the gates of Lindong City, the news spread like wildfire, quickly reaching the entire city and then the soldiers guarding the gate.

The soldiers and the people of the city had long heard of Princess Runing's fame, and when they heard that she had arrived, they all rushed to the main street, eager to catch a glimpse of her.

Geng Wu led a group of people out, knelt on one knee, and spoke in a strong and resounding voice:

"This humble general pays his respects to Princess Runing, may she live a thousand years!"

The soldiers behind her echoed, "Greetings, Princess Runing! Long live the Princess!"

"Uncle Geng, you don't need to do this." Nangong Wu quickly stepped forward to help Geng Wu up, and said to the kneeling soldiers, "Everyone, please get up."

"Thank you, Princess." The soldiers then stood up.

"Princess, it's been more than three years, and you've finally come to see us!" Geng Wu rubbed his hands together excitedly.

"Uncle Geng, I'm so sorry. A lot has happened in the past three years, and it's only now that I can come to see you. I'm truly sorry," Nangong Wu said.

"This humble general knows. It's all because of that bastard Zhou Shaorong that you were let down. The Zhou family deserves their fate!"

Geng Wu, recalling the news he had received, looked at her with pity. "Princess, let's not dwell on the unpleasant things from before. Let's go into the city to see General Huo."

"Okay!" Nangong Wu nodded and followed Geng Wu into the city.

The soldiers guarding the city gate all knelt down, "Welcome, Your Highness!"

Nangong Wu raised her hand, "No need for formalities, everyone, please rise!"

As they entered the city, Nangong Wu was stunned when she saw the soldiers and civilians kneeling on both sides of the street.

I never expected her to be so popular.

She had intended to enter the city quietly, but because she had informed Geng Wu, things turned out this way.

"It seems your reputation is growing," Bei Chenyan whispered in her ear. "The heroic deeds we performed in the capital of the Eastern Jin Kingdom have probably spread here as well."

"Heroic deeds? You think you're a hero? Dream on." Nangong Wu glanced at him indifferently.

But then again, it seems that what they did has already reached the Western Yan Kingdom.

After all, there were also spies from the Western Yan Kingdom in the capital of the Eastern Jin Kingdom. As the garrison commander of Lindong Pass, Li Feng naturally sent people to the Eastern Jin Kingdom as well.

And she went to great lengths to confront the King of Wu and the Crown Prince, bombing the King of Wu's palace and the royal palace, killing tens of thousands of people and causing such a huge commotion that not only the Western Yan Kingdom, but also the other kingdoms must have known about it.

"Greetings to Princess Runing! May she live a thousand years!"

Wherever Nangong Wu went, the kneeling people on both sides of the street shouted "Long live the Emperor!" and the sound echoed over the sky above Lin Dong City.

"Everyone, there's no need for this, get up!"

Nangong Wu felt as if a general had returned victorious and was being welcomed by the people lining the streets.

But neither she nor the original owner of this body had ever been on the battlefield, and she felt somewhat unworthy of being welcomed on their knees like this.

"Princess, everyone already knows what you did in the Eastern Jin Kingdom!" Geng Wu excitedly told her.

"General Huo received a secret report that you went to the Eastern Jin Kingdom, first bombed the Eastern Jin Kingdom's silver treasury, then killed the King of Wu and his son, and bombed the King of Wu's palace and the Eastern Jin Kingdom's imperial palace."

The Grand General was somewhat skeptical after reading the secret report, but yesterday, an urgent report from the court confirmed the matter. His Majesty ordered the Grand General to strengthen defenses to prevent an attack by the Eastern Jin army!

"If they dare to invade again, then let the Eastern Jin Kingdom be annexed into the territory of the Western Yan Kingdom," Nangong Wu sneered.

If the Eastern Jin emperor were to survive and dare to send troops to invade again, she would fight until the Eastern Jin dynasty was destroyed.

Geng Wu led them to Li Feng's residence, the "General's Office".

The "General's Office" was an official institution established by the imperial court for generals stationed on the border. It was a high-level official residence that combined office, living, and military command functions.

My grandfather and mother used to live here when they were stationed here.

"Uncle Geng, has Li An arrived yet?" Nangong Wu thought of Li An.

She and Bei Chenyan have been away from the capital for twenty days, and it takes half a month to travel here by fast horse from the capital. She doesn't know if they have arrived in Li'an yet.

"Not yet, but it'll be soon, in the next two or three days." Geng Wu laughed as he said this, "After receiving your letter, the General has been busy preparing for the wedding!"

Nangong Wu smiled as well, "Li Feng is already quite old. If it weren't for Mother's accident, we should have arranged their marriage long ago!"

Upon hearing her mention Nangong Lan, Geng Wu's smile vanished. "Princess, you've grown up so much and are still so outstanding. The spirit of the Princess and General in heaven should be smiling in their graves."

Nangong Wu nodded, "I won't let my mother down."

They entered the general's mansion, but Li Feng was not there. One of his guards said, "The general has gone on an inspection tour; he should be back soon..."

"Princess, you've arrived." Li Feng's voice came from behind.

Nangong Wu turned around and saw Li Feng hurriedly walking in with a deputy general.

"This humble general pays his respects to the Princess!"

Nangong Wu helped him up and patted his shoulder. "Not bad, you're becoming more and more like a great general."
