To travel from the Lu Kingdom to the capital of Great Yan Dynasty, Ji City, one would have to cross seven kingdoms. They were the Gao Ling Kingdom, Wen Kingdom, Li Shan Kingdom, Gao Kingdom, Hu Kingdom, Zhi Le Kingdom and San Song Kingdom. Among these seven kingdoms, Gao Ling Kingdom and Lu Kingdom were rivals. Every couple of years, there would be a war of either a minor or major scale erupting between them. The rest of the six kingdoms had different relationships with Lu Kingdom, either friendly or hostile, and there wasn't any special relationship between them.
