An Shiliu and An Shiqi received the message and were shocked. They immediately arranged for over fifty thousand civilians and led the Hua Family's Hidden Guard along with Su Qingmian and Su Qingfeng and an army of a hundred thousand. They took a detour from a hundred miles away to encircle Songlan Mountain.
Since these hundred thousand soldiers were subdued by Su Zizhan, all undercover agents within the army were removed and handed over to Su Qingfeng. For the past two months, he had essentially taken control, training the troops daily and marching at a forced pace. They were physically fit and extremely quick in their movements.
But even the hundred thousand soldiers had some distance to cover and could not arrive in time to provide reinforcement.
In the middle of the night, the pursuers caught up. Yun An reported, "Young Master, the pursuers are within less than three miles, and the Plum Blossom Seal guards are less than two miles away."
Hua Yan sighed.
