「The next day.」
A dreadful rumor, like a hurricane, swept through all of Qiyun Road. This time, it did not stir the public's anticipation for a good show, but rather, it instilled a profound sense of apprehension and unease.
Downstream on the Lingjin River, densely packed warships sailed forth. War drums thundered and battle flags fluttered in the wind, all aimed directly at Qiyun Road.
Rumors claimed the number of Martial Guards was around fifty thousand.
Soon, new information arrived. Behind this group, another troop was hastening toward them at full speed, flying battle flags identical to those of the fifty thousand.
Without a doubt, one batch was not enough, so another was coming. When these two forces merged, their total numbers might approach one hundred thousand.
