The sixth year of the Orthodox reign.
Spring.
The Governor of the Eastern Depot was ordered to return to the capital.
General Xie was promoted to the fourth-rank Martial General, and his subordinates each received promotions, commanded to garrison Lingnan.
Lingnan was a thousand miles away from the capital, and the intentions of the Orthodox Emperor were self-evident.
It was both a show of favor and a warning.
Upon hearing this, the martial arts sects cried tears of joy as if they were celebrating the New Year, thanking their ancestors for protecting their descendants through this calamitous time.
In just under two years, the number of experts who died or were injured, and the sects that were destroyed, amounted to more than a dozen major battles between the forces of good and evil.
The horror of military encirclements and surprise attacks had become a nightmare among the people of the martial world.
The Governor of the Eastern Depot was the master of their nightmares!
