Inside the Guardian Storage Room, it was as tranquil as ever.
"Sir." Yin Xi bowed respectfully. "I am leaving to take up my new post."
As he spoke, he stole a glance at the young man before him, then quickly lowered his head again.
"Where to?"
The young man brewed a pot of tea and asked calmly.
"Hangu Pass." Yin Xi smiled, bowing once more as he accepted the tea the young man offered. He watched the fragrant steam rise from it, his gaze distant for a moment.
"Go on, go on."
Lu Xuan waved his hand. Yin Xi finished his tea, stood up, bowed again, and slowly departed.
The Guardian Storage Room was once again empty and still.
'It's been over a month. Why haven't I gotten a letter from Senior Brother yet?' Lu Xuan muttered in confusion, but he immediately shook his head and put it out of his mind.
In his last letter, Senior Brother Zhang had said he was going with Duke Huan of Qi to attack the Sui Kingdom.
