Heavenly Imperial Ghostblade, A Jade Pendant, Reminiscing The Past

Chu Kuangren left the barracks after his enrolment.

As for Emperor Jin Xuan, he had decided to enroll as a royal soldier. This was despite the fact that his Emperor status would have easily made him a deputy commander in any orthodoxies within the stronghold.

However, Emperor Jin Xuan insisted on becoming a royal soldier and starting from the bottom. Chu Kuangren did not pose further questions about his decision nor exchange many parting words with Emperor Jin Xuan.

After leaving the barracks, Chu Kuangren roamed around the main streets of the stronghold.

He retrieved a jade pendant and muttered, "Right, I've nearly forgotten about this pendant by the Seventh Tormentor. Perhaps this might lead to something worthwhile."

The pendant was the Seventh Tormentor's gift to Chu Kuangren.
