Stepping out of the External Affairs Hall,
Shen Changchuan felt a swirl of complex emotions.
The Sect's combat forces,
had essentially all been dispatched to the front lines.
It was said that near the Nanyue Kingdom, a city called Barbaric City had been established in a suitable location to serve as a forward stronghold.
Of course,
in response,
the major Demonic Forces of the Nanyue Kingdom had also united,
amassing their own troops at No Light Creek in the northernmost part of the Nanyue Kingdom.
They were now in a standoff with the Dragon Cloud Sect across the three-thousand-li expanse of Black Mountain Forest.
Although a full-scale war had yet to break out,
the constant back-and-forth probing
had already resulted in considerable losses.
Moreover, one could imagine that
a formal war was not far off.
However, this shift in the situation
was not the reason for Shen Changchuan's complex feelings.
