After nightfall, three thousand torches burned on the official road south of West Mountain Town, resembling a winding fire snake, advancing toward Xiushui County.
Chu Yunyun originally estimated to gather twelve thousand people, but after nightfall, the number of troops assembled on the south side of West Mountain Town far exceeded this number.
Not only did many of the prominent families and aristocrats in West Mountain Town, who were filled with both respect and fear, bring out all their resources, but even many forces on the outskirts of West Mountain Town also voluntarily sent their martial cultivators and house soldiers subflexure.
At this time, an hour had passed since the battle at Black Bear Mountain ended.
