Su Wan's face darkened. She was still being used as a tool.
However, she couldn't dwell on that now. This was no time to be distracted.
She looked into the distance under the cover of the bushes.
A little ahead, three terrifying creatures appeared out of nowhere.
The troops were wearing silver armor with red spider lilies engraved on them. They had huge helmets on their heads with curved horns. Thick chains wrapped around their arms, which were attached to the battleaxes they held in their hands.
One such soldier was very huge and burly. He was taller than the tallest and strongest soldier on Su Wan's side.
The helmet, which only revealed the eyes, emitted a pitch-black light. That was the Soul Fire.
Su Wan looked around and found several corpses on the ground a few paces away. They were obviously troops sent by the other Lords but had been brutally killed.
