Chu Ze shook his head weakly, a trickle of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

He struggled to get up, but he felt dizzy and could no longer hold on, and fell heavily to the ground.

Seeing this, Commander Zhao was in a panic. He hugged Chu Ze, tears streaming down his face, and he shouted in grief:
"Someone, come quickly, the general is seriously injured and dying, quickly escort him back to the palace for treatment!"

As soon as he finished speaking, soldiers rushed over and carefully helped Chu Ze up.

The group returned to the capital in a mighty and rapid manner.

All that was left were ruins and countless corpses of bandits. The people in the suburbs of Beijing were saved, but they didn't know that the benefactor who saved them from the water and fire was now on the verge of death.

At the same time, inside the palace.

Zhu Di was pacing back and forth in the hall, extremely anxious.

Ever since Chu Ze led his troops to war, he could no longer sit still.

He knew that Chu Ze was seriously injured and should not have risked going out.

But looking at the resounding oath and the courage to face death head-on, what reason did he have to refuse?
But this journey is dangerous and really worrying.

He paced back and forth in the palace, extremely anxious, and wished he could rush out of the palace immediately to fight alongside his beloved minister.

Just when Zhu Di was feeling uneasy, he suddenly heard a burst of hurried horse hooves sounds.

He hurriedly walked outside the palace, only to see a group of people rushing into the palace in a panic.

The person leading the group was none other than Commander Zhao, who was covered in blood.

He was holding a person in his arms, covered in bruises and blood.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Chu Ze, whose life or death was in danger!
Zhu Di felt a huge shock in his heart, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

He rushed forward, took Chu Ze tremblingly, tears streaming down his face.

"My dear! Chu Ze! What's wrong with you? Wake up!"

Chu Ze did not react at all, his face was as pale as paper, his eyes were closed, and his breathing was weak and almost imperceptible.

In this situation, Zhu Di was in agony and filled with grief and anger.

He hugged his beloved tightly, weeping and shouting heartbreakingly:
"Come here! Call the imperial physician! Hurry and treat my dear minister. If there is any mistake, I will take your heads!"

The imperial doctors rushed over upon hearing the news and treated the injuries with trepidation.

After a while, they looked solemn and reported respectfully:
"Your Majesty, the general is seriously injured. I'm afraid... I'm afraid."

"What are you afraid of? Tell me now!"

Zhu Di was extremely anxious and shouted sternly.

The imperial doctors looked at each other, knelt down and kowtowed:
"I'm afraid the general won't have much time left."

Zhu Di only felt a loud thunder exploding in his ears, and his whole body was instantly struck by lightning and was on the verge of falling.

He couldn't believe that the great general who defended the country and his most trusted beloved minister was on the verge of death, with no way to save him.

"No, it's impossible."

Zhu Di slumped to the ground, tears streaming down his face.

He hugged Chu Ze and muttered incoherently:

"My dear, you can't die!"

"The Ming Dynasty still needs you, and I need you too!"

"Didn't you say that you wanted to work with me to create a prosperous world and let the people live and work in peace and contentment?"

"How can you just leave like that and leave me alone? What should I do?"

Zhu Di hugged the unconscious Chu Ze tightly, tears streaming down his face, heartbroken.

Such a wise ruler was now like a lost child, at a loss as to what to do.

He trembled as he stroked his beloved minister's pale face, praying to God to bless him and allow this loyal and brave minister to wake up so that they could join hands with him to create great achievements.

When Du Renjie arrived, this was the tragic scene he saw.

He also had tears in his eyes, and he knelt on the ground, mumbling a prayer:

"God, please have mercy on us and save our General Chu!"

"He is still young, it is time for him to make great achievements!"

"The Ming Dynasty cannot do without him, and Your Majesty cannot do without him even more!"

For a moment, cries of grief were heard throughout the hall, and everyone was worried about Chu Ze's life.

The imperial doctors knelt tremblingly by the side, not daring to breathe, for fear of being hurt by the aura of grief.

Those words before had already shattered everyone's hopes.

General Chu Ze, I'm afraid he's really going to leave this world. At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the crowd.

"Move aside, move aside, I want to see your Majesty!"

An old but loud voice sounded outside the hall.

Zhu Di raised his head suddenly and shouted in a trembling voice:
"Who is it? Who wants to see me?"

I saw an old man with a white beard and wearing a gray robe, striding in.

He exuded a mysterious aura, like a visitor from outer space, extraordinary.

"I am an immortal who achieved enlightenment thousands of years ago. I came down to earth this time just to save General Chu who traveled through time and space!"

The old man came straight to the point and spoke frankly.

Zhu Di was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurried forward, asking in a trembling voice:
"Senior, can you really save my beloved?"

"As long as I can save him, I'm willing to do anything!"

The old man smiled slightly and said slowly:

"Your Majesty, please be patient."

"General Chu's injury this time was actually caused by the disorder of time and space."

"He is not originally from this time and space. If he forcibly integrates into this world, he will naturally have to pay a price."

"Now his soul has collapsed and his life is in danger."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

It turns out that General Chu is a time traveler. No wonder he is both civil and martial and is proficient in military tactics!
But now, he is willing to sacrifice himself for the Ming Dynasty and the common people. It is so tragic and moving.

"What should we do?"

Zhu Di asked anxiously with red eyes.

"I do have a method that can help him recover his soul and rebuild his body."

The old man said leisurely.

"However, this method requires the help of the Jade Seal of Destiny and the previously used Void-Breaking Sword to perform."

"I wonder where these two treasures are now?"

Zhu Di was stunned when he heard this.

"I have never heard of the Jade Seal of Heaven."

"As for the Void-Breaking Sword?"

Zhu Di looked around and asked:
"Who escorted you back to the palace just now? Did you see the Void-Breaking Sword?"

Commander Zhao knelt down tremblingly and reported:
"Your Majesty, when I escorted the general back to the palace, I did not see the Void-Breaking Sword."

"It must have fallen on the battlefield."

Zhu Di became furious when he heard this.

"Asshole! How could such an important thing be lost?"

"Come here, immediately send someone to the battlefield outside the capital to search for the whereabouts of the Void-Breaking Sword for me!"

"If you can't find it, I want your heads!"

"promise!"

Upon hearing this, the guards were so frightened that they immediately took orders and left.

The old man shook his head and sighed:
"Your Majesty, don't be anxious. The Void-Breaking Sword is an extraordinary item. How could it be lost so easily?"

"In that case, there must be some reason why he has temporarily hidden himself."

"As for the Heavenly Seal."

The old man suddenly fixed his eyes on Du Renjie with a meaningful look.

"Master Du, do you know the whereabouts of the Jade Seal of Destiny?"

Du Renjie was shocked when he heard this.

He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but suddenly he came to his senses and fell to his knees as if he had suddenly realized something.

"I am so incompetent that I forgot about this!"

"Some time ago, General Chu asked me to keep a jade seal for him temporarily."

"But I didn't think much about it at the time. Now it seems that the jade seal is..."

The old man nodded with a smile. (End of this chapter)
