"We've lost another town."
An old nobleman in a black fur coat with graying beard said solemnly,
"The Black Pine Army's attack momentum is too fierce."
"Nine days, it took only nine days for the Bailu Clan to fall."
Another tall nobleman echoed, "Our situation here isn't much better."
"To be precise, it only took two days; the rest of the time was spent on the road."
Marquis Cold Blade's daughter, Viscount Winnie, said in a deep voice, "Survivors report that because Viscount Bai Lu refused to surrender, that Luo De, riding a dragon, burned the soldiers on the city walls to ashes."
"A strange sound came from the land under the castle gates, and then with a piercing noise, the gates suddenly all cracked open."
"The Black Pine Ridge's army rushed into the castle without any hindrance, Viscount Bai Lu was killed, and the rest of the Bailu Clan's whereabouts are unknown."
After hearing Viscount Winnie's words, all the nobles gasped, their faces turning pale.
