...
That night.
Bloody scenes filled Baling City, accompanied by the wails of thousands of people.
Countless people heard the thunderous boom, followed by the collapse of houses and the ground sinking, leaving a trail of dead bodies.
The two Inborn Grandmasters of the Qiang People and Miao People joined forces, giving the Yue people a horrifying New Year surprise.
...
This New Year surprise was received by Lu Yuan two days after it happened.
"What? The Commander was assassinated!"
In the Prefecture Yamen, the flustered Lu Yuan was stunned upon hearing the message conveyed by Cui Changqing.
The Commander of Dongting County was an Inborn expert and a grandmaster.
It was a joke that a man who had reached the pinnacle of martial arts through his physical prowess would be assassinated.
