A Man Like None Other

Chapter 5384

Wu Hao took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down: “Thanks to Fellow Daoist Chen for coming back in time, otherwise I would have fallen into Liu Kun’s trap. What should I do now? The princess is still in his hands, and he may have an ambush in Shendu.”

“Lord, the most urgent thing is to return to Shendu immediately and take control of the situation.”

David said, “Since Liu Kun planned all this, he must have laid a back-up plan in Shendu. If we don’t return for a long time, he may very likely take the opportunity to seize control of Shendu. As for the princess, we can first send someone to secretly investigate her whereabouts, and then find a way to rescue her.” Wu

Hao nodded: “Okay! Let’s do as Fellow Daoist Chen said! Pass the order down, turn around immediately and return to Shendu!”

The imperial guards did not dare to delay, and immediately turned their horses’ heads and galloped towards the north gate of Shendu.

David and Zi Yuan followed Wu Hao, keeping a constant eye on their surroundings.

Soon, the north gate of the Divine Capital was within sight.
