Fang Xingjian said coldly, "After you return, unify the plains. I'll give you a list of materials, and you'll bring all of the listed things to the Imperial Capital. From today onward, the Steel Lion Kingdom will become the Empire's vassal state.
"Are there any problems?"
Prince Zuoxian shut his eyes, sighed, and said, "I understand. The invasion down south was done by us, the 11 Sacred Generals, and the Heavenly Lion King. The civilians in the plains have nothing to do with it. I only hope that the Imperial Preceptor can treat the plains' civilians and herders kindly. They're all innocent."
"Hmph, it's not up to you to decide if they are innocent or not."
Fang Xingjian sent a stream of sword intent into Prince Zuoxian as well and then leaped toward the ground. He brought the two of them with him and appeared before the Fourth Prince.
