Forensic Imperial Concubine

Soon after Zack arrived in the Dragon Pass, the Great Jade Kingdom stopped attacking the Bright Dynasty. With the warring sides ceasing all their attacks against each other, the area quieted down, though eerily. The blood-soaked soil on the battlefield was also a grim reminder that the peace was short-lived, and could be shattered at any minute.

At that same time, Maxwell, who was leading the Bright Dynasty's reinforcements to the Dragon Pass, was starting to feel helpless. They still had to pass a river wide enough to drown every one of his men. A stone bridge had initially been set across it to help people traverse it, but due to the heavy downpour in the past few days, the said bridge had been destroyed. This forced them to wait until it was repaired.

"General, I'm afraid it will take days before we can cross this river," one of Maxwell's generals reported.

A grim expression contorted Maxwell's face, as he walked towards the river to see how damaged the bridge was. To him, the bridge collapsing just like that was suspicious. Had it been a wooden bridge, he would have understood, but a stone one? They had been attacked by enemy forces numerous times, and he was sure this was one of their little tricks to further delay them from reaching their destination.

The bridge hadn't been thoroughly washed out—some stones still remained so that a martial artist who was equipped with the ability to jump high could cross it. Unfortunately, most of his soldiers did not have that kind of skill.

At that point, he admitted that Zack had the amazing gift for foresight. He was with them when they started the journey, but he decided to break from the group and go first. If he continued traveling with them, then he might have also been stranded, which was the worst case scenario for them. 'I'm sure he has already arrived in the Dragon Pass,' Maxwell thought, annoyed. 'While our reinforcements are still stuck here!'
