The Thousand-island Lake Army pressed on like a bunch of locusts flying by. Everywhere they went, they would loot all the Families, big or small alike.
Three or four days later, the Families along the route learned from the experience. They would leave the counties early on with their wealth and Mystical Materials and return after the army left.
However!
When the Thousand-island Lake Army failed to get any stuff from two counties, they changed their route. They divided into 10 teams and rushed on their way toward the Yu Emperor City like 10 sharp swords.
More Families were suffering. The coverage of the 10 teams were so wide there were practically no place to hide. Many counties didn't have the luxury of owning a Teleportation Formation.
The three Royal Families remained silent. There were scouts lurking around in the three Royal Cities. Once the powerful warriors of the three Royal Families made a move, the scouts would find out.
