"It's Brother Xu!" Before Chief Wu could speak, Sima Xiao'er blurted out the answer without a hint of breathlessness, "Brother Xu is back! He's come to our safe zone!"
Upon hearing this, Chief Wu couldn't suppress the upturning of his lips. Xu Huo's hometown might be in Jing City, but his usual residence was in Ting City. From the moment he made a name for himself, he was already Ting City's representative player. Not to mention that later on, he contributed the Antidote Fungus without asking for anything in return, played a huge role in repelling an attack in Jing City, and even went straight to Country Y to strike back fiercely. Not only did it feel like a massive release of pent-up aggression but it also sent domestic morale soaring to unprecedented levels—getting stabbed in the back without retaliation would only result in frustration, but turning around and promptly responding with firepower, that's what creates deterrence!
