Chapter 271: Chapter 271

Qinghai was such a vast territory. One who had never set foot in the region before would have never guessed that a beautiful paradise was situated behind the forest stained with the blood of fallen soldiers.

About 140 kilometers to the east of Chifeng was Cuiwei Pass. It stood majestically tall above the landscape, like a mountain.

Zhuge Yue was on horseback, with over a hundred horses following behind him. His personal bodyguard, Guo Huai, led around 20 to 30 soldiers at the back, guarding the royal carriages. The wind was blowing from the east, bringing with it the scent of the earth, whose soil had laid the foundations for another blossoming summer in the vast land that was Qinghai.

By the time they had reached the pass, the guard on patrol was already expecting his arrival. Upon seeing Zhuge Yue, he saluted and greeted him before opening the heavy city gates.
