"Father!"
Upon seeing Cai Yong, Cai Yan could no longer hold back her tears.
Cai Yong's eyes widened.
The person in front of him was really his daughter!
Cai Yong felt as if he were dreaming and was momentarily dazed.
However, when Cai Yan was in his arms, Cai Yong realized that it was all real!
Cai Yong had mixed feelings as he looked at his daughter, whom he almost did not recognize.
What had she been through all these years?
Cai Wenji was still very plump back then, but now she was so thin that she was beyond recognition.
Her slender fingers were covered in bloody blisters.
Cai Yong was speechless.
Bai Feng, on the other hand, watched quietly from the side without saying a word.
No matter what he said now, he would only ruin the atmosphere.
After a long while, Cai Yong finally spoke.
"Daughter, what have you been through all these years …"
As he spoke, Cai Yong touched Cai Wenji's blistered hands. His heart felt as if it was being stabbed by a knife.
"Father, I'm fine … If not for Mr. Bai's crusade against the Xiongnu, I would probably still be suffering in the Xiongnu camp."
Cai Wenji wiped her tears and looked at Bai Feng as she spoke.
"Mr. Bai?"
Cai Yong was slightly taken aback. He turned to look at Bai Feng.
At this moment, Bai Feng was standing quietly with a smile on his face.
Cai Yong hurriedly bowed.
"Thank you, Mr. Bai. I hope Mr. Bai can forgive me. I was too excited to see my daughter and neglected you for a moment."
"Sir, please take a seat."
"I really don't know how to thank you, Sir."
Bai Feng smiled faintly as she looked at the tearful Cai Yong.
"It's nothing, Mr. Bo Li. I'm here to exterminate the Xiongnu at the border and rescue Miss Cai."
Upon hearing Bai Feng's words, Cai Yong was taken aback.
"Exterminate the Xiongnu?"
Cai Wenji said from the side.
"Mr. Bai's strategy is unparalleled. He's already exterminated the Xiongnu tribe. Now, there are no more Southern Xiongnu tribes outside our borders."
Exterminated!
Cai Yong sucked in a breath of cold air when he heard Cai Wenji's words.
Cai Yong knew better than anyone how ferocious the Xiongnu were. With the current military strength of the Central Plains, they could only be defeated if they returned to the glorious days of the Great Han.
However, the extermination of an entire clan was simply unimaginable.
Moreover, Bai Feng, who was dressed in green, looked like a weak scholar no matter how one looked at him. Moreover, he looked like he had just passed his twenties.
From the looks of it, not to mention going on a crusade against the Xiongnu, he couldn't even think of leading an army!
"Mr Bai is really a young hero!"
Cai Yong sighed from the bottom of his heart.
Bai Feng shook his head and cupped his hands.
"This one still has important matters to attend to in the army. Since Mr. Cai has reunited with his daughter, this one will take his leave first."
After saying that, Bai Feng turned to leave.
Cai Yong hurriedly followed after him.
"Mr Bai, you mustn't!"
"You saved my daughter and sent her to Chenliu without any complaints."
"With such great kindness, how could I neglect Mister?"
Upon hearing Cai Yong's words, Bai Feng couldn't help but smile.
"Sir's words are too serious. This one truly does have important matters to attend to."
Upon hearing Bai Feng's insistence, Cai Yong hurriedly said, "That's fine.
Since Sir has important matters to attend to, I won't keep Sir any longer. "
"I will definitely pay you a visit to express my gratitude another day!"
"In the future, if Sir needs anything from this old man, feel free to ask. This old man will definitely do anything to help!"
… …
After exchanging some pleasantries with Cai Yong, Bai Feng left with Cao Chun and Li Cunxiao.
It wasn't that Bai Feng didn't want to stay, but that he had already promised Cao Jie that he would return in three to five days.
Bai Feng had no intention of asking Cai Yong to repay him.
After all, he was only doing this to complete his mission.
However, the Cai Clan was a prestigious clan and one of the many landowning clans.
If he had Cai Yong's assistance, he might be able to use him in the future.
"Ding! Congratulations to Host for completing the mission. You have sent Cai Yan to Cai Yong's residence in Chenliu. Reward: 50,000 skill points!"
Suddenly, the System's cold mechanical voice rang out.
Bai Feng was delighted.
He had finally obtained 50,000 skill points!
At this moment, Li Cunxiao came over and asked in confusion.
"Sir, why did you refuse when Sir Cai Yong invited you to his residence for a chat?"
"After all, the Cai Clan is a prestigious clan, one of the top landowning clans in Chenliu."
Bai Feng shook his head and said, "Jing Si is wrong.
This time, I only wanted to exterminate the Xiongnu. Rescuing Cai Yan was only a matter of convenience.
"If the Prime Minister were to find out and misunderstand that I was trying to rope in the landowning clans, things would be troublesome."
"But Sir Cai has good intentions. There shouldn't be any harm, right?"
Li Cunxiao whispered.
Bai Feng shook his head.
"The undercurrents in Xuchang are surging. Regardless of whether Sir Cai has good intentions or not, it is bound to attract the attention of the landowning clans. Let's wait for this period of time to pass."
Hearing Bai Feng's words, Li Cunxiao nodded, half-understanding.
Cao Chun followed behind them and tactfully chose not to listen to their conversation.
Seeing Li Cunxiao leave, Cao Chun came over and asked with a smile.
"Sir, how did you defeat the Xiongnu?"
Before Bai Feng could speak, a strange sound came from in front of him.
"Could it be bandits?!"
Cao Chun's eyes were sharp and his hands were nimble. He gripped his broadsword tightly and stared at the source of the sound.
Unexpectedly, a figure leaped out of the dense forest and disappeared!
Bai Feng narrowed his eyes. That figure was very familiar!
She was dressed in red martial attire and had an extremely high ponytail.
Could it be Lv Lingqi?
What was she doing here?
With this thought, Bai Feng whispered, "The two of you go back to Xuchang.
"You two go back to Xuchang first. I'll catch up with you later."
With that, Bai Feng urged his horse to chase after the figure.
Li Cunxiao, on the other hand, did not have much of a reaction and continued to walk forward.
Cao Chun, on the other hand, was stunned.
Sir, I know that you've always been swift and decisive, but this is too swift and decisive!
He had just said a few words, and he had disappeared?
Do you dare to go any faster?
However, Cao Chun did not think too much about it. Cao Chun knew how skilled Bai Feng was.
Even if they encountered bandits, with Bai Feng's skills, he would probably flatten their stronghold.
With this thought, Cao Chun put away his broadsword and followed Li Cunxiao toward Xuchang.
… …
At this moment, on the outskirts of Chenliu City …
Lv Lingqi's speed was not fast. Bai Feng caught up with her in a moment.
Lv Lingqi stopped in front of a house. She turned to look at Bai Feng with a puzzled expression.
"Why are you following me?"
Bai Feng narrowed his eyes.
"You're not looking for me?"
Lv Lingqi shook her head.
"I've already decided not to cause trouble for Cao Cao. Why should I follow you?"
"I just met you along the way."
At this moment, a low voice came from the house.
