The army was about to arrive at Lingcheng. Soldiers had already come to inform them, so the people waited outside the city with peace of mind.

A year later, the army was about to return to the city. At such an important moment, Su Li naturally did not mind waiting a little longer, so she, like the people of Ling City, waited outside the city for the army's return.

Fortunately, it didn't take long before the grand procession appeared before everyone's eyes. Su Li had good eyesight and immediately spotted Zhao Zexuan riding at the front, leading the procession.

Theory is no substitute for practice. Seeing that everyone was indeed unharmed, Su Li felt relieved and greeted the victorious heroes with a big smile.

The people of Lingcheng were cheering, their joy overflowing. Of course, the generals and soldiers who noticed the excitement at the city gate were also extremely excited. If it weren't for the strict military regulations, they would have already jumped for joy.

Zhao Zexuan had noticed the commotion at the city gate long ago, and naturally he also noticed Su Li standing there. At this moment, a smile unconsciously appeared on his face.

"Finally back! It's been over a year since I left Lingcheng. I've really missed it," Mo Nan said, riding his horse beside Zhao Zexuan.

Upon hearing this, the other generals couldn't help but nod in agreement, "Absolutely, absolutely."

Looking at Lingcheng not far away, a hint of emotion flashed in Zhao Zexuan's eyes. He then said to the general beside him, "Pass down the order to have the soldiers speed up and not keep the people waiting."

Having already planned this, the generals couldn't help but nod excitedly upon hearing this, saying, "Good."

Before long, they arrived at the city gate. Seeing the excited faces of the people, the generals and soldiers present raised their heads with pride and joy.

Upon reaching the city gate, Zhao Zexuan dismounted and walked straight towards Su Li. Only when he stood in front of her did he say, "Sorry to keep you waiting."

Looking at Zhao Zexuan, she felt that he hadn't changed at all. This was Su Li's first impression of him. Listening to Zhao Zexuan's words, she smiled and shook her head, saying, "Not long ago, and besides, you deserve it. You are great heroes of Lingcheng."

Hearing this, Zhao Zexuan didn't speak for a moment, but stared straight at Su Li. Just as Su Li was about to ask a question, he loudly said to the soldiers behind him, "All soldiers, bow down."

Before Su Li and the people of Lingcheng could react, the soldiers bowed deeply to them.

Seeing this, Su Li and the people present couldn't help but be surprised. After realizing what was happening, Su Li quickly said to Zhao Zexuan and the soldiers outside the city, "What is going on? Please get up quickly."

The people of Lingcheng were a beat slow to react, but they quickly came to their senses and echoed with fear, "Yes, please get up quickly."

The soldiers had already stood up, and Zhao Zexuan said, "This is all as it should be. Without sufficient food supplies, things wouldn't have gone so smoothly."

The initially puzzled people immediately understood upon hearing this and hurriedly explained, "This is what we should do..."

Zhao Zexuan heard the people's explanation clearly, but he did not give up. Instead, he turned around, bowed solemnly to Su Li, and said, "This success is thanks to your help, Madam."

In front of everyone, Zhao Zexuan solemnly bowed to Su Li, which not only surprised Su Li, but also aroused the curiosity of the people present, who all stared at Su Li with bright eyes.
