The army Lin Haifeng dispatched to welcome the Sea King extended all the way from the gate of the Yanjing Assembly Site to Bohai Bay. Such a grand display served two purposes: firstly, to show the importance Yanjing placed on the Sea Clan, and secondly, to demonstrate Yanjing's strength to the Sea Clan. Of course, these were merely for show—things that were both emotionally and logically necessary.
Fang Bai, an official of the welcoming party, stood quietly by the sea. He felt an unprecedented sense of calm despite the gravity of the event. Although he was not privy to Lin Haifeng's entire plan, he had a certain understanding of Lin Haifeng's tactics. If Lin Haifeng was confident about the control plan for the Sea King, it indicated a high probability of the plan's success. Of course, he was acutely aware of his own position in all of this. He was just a spectator, a beneficiary of the plan's success; he didn't need to do anything else.
