A week later, Ling Zhao and Qiqi had arrived at the bay area of the Water Cloud Sub-Continent with the Crimson Sky Grand Fleet.
Ling decided to bring the Grand Fleet with him just in case a full scale warfare against the White Geese Continent broke out. From his experience, being prepared for a war is far wiser than sorry.
From Xiao Wu's report, Ling Zhao acknowledged Xu Yuan's accomplishment during his absence and she was able to amass an army of 10.000 Earth Realm Cultivators, as the infantry units. 5.000 Cavalry units of Sky Realm Cultivators and Fanged Horse as their mounts. And also another 5.000 Archers ranging from Peak Earth Realm Cultivators to Low-tier Sky Realm Cultivators.
In this conquest mission, Ling Zhao brought third-fourth of the total army and left the rest on the Whale's Head Island as a bastion.
