The furthest cities could receive commands within six hours, whereas the nearest ones received them within two.
Two hours, four hours, Xu Jin wasn't in a hurry.
He waited quietly.
Until the first command receipt appeared.
At the same time, a guard reported that Zhang Shuo, a messenger from Cangming Star Hall, requested an audience.
Xu Jin assumed it was because it had grown light, and Zhang Shuo had come to suggest joining forces with the Search and Kill Team to swiftly assassinate the disciples of the Da Chen National Daoist School.
"Tell the messenger that a rebellion has erupted in Fire Wood City, the City Lord has fallen in battle, and I shall personally quell it. Please ask the messenger to wait for one more day." In Xu Jin's presence, Zi Hao gave this response.
He was also showing a degree of sincerity to Xu Jin.
In the Marquis' hall of the Royal Palace, Zhang Shuo and He Yulan received the reply, exchanging glances with slightly furrowed brows.
