With Yan Zhen's safe return, General Wei breathed a quiet sigh of relief. He specially invited Guo Wei and his two disciples to stay for a few days. Guo Wei saw this was a rare opportunity for Chu Lingguang to meet a rival and confidant like Yan Zhen, so he naturally wouldn't miss this chance.
He also arranged for Chu Lingguang and Yan Zhen to have some time alone, while he himself accompanied Wei Tu to patrol the National Border. Wei Tu was the Guardian General and had been stationed in the Northern Capital Territory for many years. His hard work and great contributions had earned Guo Wei's deep respect. Similarly, Wei Tu had witnessed Guo Wei's power. The morale of the border guards had skyrocketed after Guo Wei slaughtered the Turkic forces, and Wei Tu held a mutual admiration for Guo Wei.
