The journey through Soul Dream Marsh was long, and Lu Hong and the others could not use teleportation gates; they could only trek through desolate, uninhabited forests. Fortunately, Bai Se had brought over two hundred spatial mages, which resolved the issue.
Looking at the solid teleportation gates opened by the spatial mages, Xie'an bowed with a fist: "Thank you, Lord Bai Se, for your assistance."
Bai Se smiled charmingly: "What are you talking about, General Xie? The empire still relies on you and Lord Baron for support. My assignment to guard the Dragon Tan was precisely for situations like today."
"Dark Guards and the Military Department are both vital halves of the empire," Xie'an agreed wholeheartedly. However, his remark clearly undermined other agencies, such as the most powerful Seven Towers.
One hundred thousand troops were teleported in batches to Soul Dream Marsh, and Lu Hong also planned to go with Xie'an but was stopped by Bai Se.
