"The demons of the Demon Cult in Shaoyang have also made their move!"
"A troop from the strategic chokepoint of Xiāng-Guì is rapidly advancing towards White Horse Manor."
"By the time we received the news, their forces must have already arrived," Zhao Rong looked at the not-so-clear map in his hands; Quanling was a crucial gateway to the southwest of Hengyang, not far from White Horse Manor.
It's not just Anren, Shaoyang, Lianyuan, Quanling; even the Demon Cult forces from Taiyuan have been mobilised!
Some people from the Demon Cult are mixed in among the common folks, responsible for procurement, reconnaissance and message relay, and the marketplaces of the various places in Hengzhou Prefecture have never lacked the presence of eyes and ears from the Hengshan Sect.
Any minor powers relying on the Hengshan Sect have their varied trades; who doesn't remain extra vigilant?
