"Greetings, Young Master Qin Hao!"
"Greetings, Young Master Qin Hao!"
On the city wall, a vast crowd was beside itself with excitement, bowing respectfully one after another.
They were all Qin family disciples!
Among them were quite a few boys of thirteen or fourteen, who gazed at Qin Hao with boundless admiration.
Over the past few years, they had grown up hearing stories about Qin Hao.
Qin Xiongfeng's face brimmed with excitement. "Young Master Qin Hao! You're back."
"I'm back." Qin Hao smiled.
"Oh..." Qin Xiongfeng looked at Qi Yuelan beside Qin Hao, confusion and surprise flashing through his eyes. "Th-this lady is..."

Qin Xiongfeng's heart jolted. Dumbstruck, he stammered, "Y-you're the family head's wife... The family head's wife has returned!"
Qin Xiongfeng remembered Qi Yuelan.
Qin Xiongfeng was a year older than Qin Hao, and he had already been old enough to remember things when the Shadow Guard took Qi Yuelan to the Northern Yan Dynasty.

It had simply been so long that Qin Xiongfeng had failed to recognize Qi Yuelan at first.
"Madam, my father is doing very well! He's at the residence right now. This is wonderful! Madam has returned!"
"Quick, notify the family head!"
Qin Xiongfeng immediately gave orders, sending someone to notify Qin Yuntian and the rest of the Qin family.
Behind Qin Xiongfeng, many Qin family disciples studied Qi Yuelan curiously.
The older disciples had also recognized Qi Yuelan, while the younger ones looked her over with curiosity. As
