Time slipped away, and two years passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period, a major event occurred that caused the name of the great hero Xie Qi to spread throughout the pugilistic world, until everyone knew of him. This event not only brought fame to Xie Qi but also shifted public perception of Lu Xingze. Before this, Lu Xingze had been looked down upon by many, dismissed as nothing more than a beautiful Ge who relied on his looks and clung to the great hero Xie Qi to survive. After this, however, people began to see him in a new light.
This incident was inextricably linked to the Imperial Court. At the time, Xie Qi and Lu Xingze had finally arrived at a city on the border of the Capital after a long journey. Unexpectedly, this seemingly peaceful city was in the midst of chaos. The Xiongnu had launched an unprecedentedly large-scale invasion, surging forward with the intent to capture the city in one fell swoop. Facing such a dire situation, the court quickly dispatched brave generals and soldiers to defend against the onslaught, leading to a fierce confrontation between the two sides. It was amidst these flames of war that Xie Qi and Lu Xingze happened to arrive.
