A few moments after the Northern Sovereign left the courtyard, Quan Lin turned his attention towards Shun Long and asked him
''Young master Shun, are you ready to go?''
Nodding his head, Shun Long looked at Quan Lin and said calmly
''Commander Quan, please lead the way.''
A few moments later, Quan Lin led Shun Long's group of 6 towards the back of the Northern Sovereign's estate, and soon, their group arrived in front of an empty, large area that seemed to be guarded by a squad of 10 soldiers, all clad in silver armor that looked quite similar to Quan Lin's own.
Surprisingly, each of those 10 soldiers seemed to be emitting an aura that had already surpassed that of a Dao King and was clearly at the Dao Emperor realm, surprising Shun Long and the others quite a bit.
Clearly, for 10 Dao Emperors to be standing guard here, even if they were early-stage Dao Emperors at most, it showed how much importance the Northern Sovereign placed in this area.
