The tea meeting at the front line is merely a gathering set in the middle of opposing armies. Ah Jiu is the first to sit at the table, his slender hand leisurely pouring Da Hong Pao into two purple clay cups. The soup's rich color and the fragrant aroma of Wuyi Mountain Da Hong Pao fill the air.
The sound of horse hooves arises, and Ah Jiu looks up to see an old man clad in armor riding forth, with only one guard by his side.
This is the War God of Nanyue, Hong Zhentian.
The horse arrives nearby, and he leaps off its back, striding boldly toward Ah Jiu. His armor emits a rustling sound with each step, an imposing aura of iron and blood descending upon Ah Jiu. Such pressure would have already intimidated ordinary soldiers into weak knees.
Yet, Ah Jiu is unafraid. He stands up and smiles as he watches Old General Hong approach, clasping his hands into fists in salute, "Little King greets Old General Hong."
