Zhang San led the troops back to the Capital Region Road and, before entering Daxing City, sent someone to report to the Red Emperor that he was returning and bringing back the entire family of the King of Shu.
After all, since he was ordered to go on an expedition, it was only natural to report first upon returning.
However, even when Zhang San and his troops were at the south of Daxing City, no news came of the Red Emperor sending someone to greet him.
It was apparent that the Red Emperor did it on purpose.
Even if the Red Emperor was indeed diligent in state affairs, dealing with numerous matters daily, he could still have sent someone to greet him.
But since no one came to greet him, it could only mean that his notoriety had already spread from the Sword South Path to the Capital Region Road.
Therefore, the Red Emperor knew it was inappropriate to send someone to greet him, someone suspected of slaughtering 130,000 people.
And this let Zhang San... feel much more at ease.
