676: Chapter 676: Caught Two Big Fish 676: Chapter 676: Caught Two Big Fish “Finally, they’ve made their move, and they’ve arrived rather quickly,”
Xi Fei, looking at the report, knew that a group of people had co from the south, gathering many others as they headed towards their main city.
By their banners, it seed they were seeking justice for those who lived poorly.
Of course, there was another reason, which was the spread of the Temple’s faith.
After all, in this world, it was quite normal to spread beliefs; it was politically correct.
Their reason was to purge the Xuanwu Territory’s Lord of traitors, and clearly, that person was Xi Fei.
There was no helping it; throughout history, when those in power made mistakes, it was all too easy to bla the won close to them.
This rationale was very common and legitimate both on Earth and in the Otherworld.
Not to ntion, Xi Fei herself was soone of Enchantress blood.
In the eyes of those zealots, Xi Fei could be equated to a Demon.
And in the Otherworld, it was not uncommon for an Enchantress to seduce those in power, causing problems for territories and nations.
“They are already here; it is just that their thods are too rough.
Should we mobilize the military?”
Qiao Miya, looking at the report, furrowed her brows.
She had not expected the external forces to intervene so directly.
It now seed that their Lord had been very prescient in waiting for Xi Fei to break through to Great Mage before leaving; otherwise, they would have been in real trouble this ti.
After all, apart from Xi Fei, there wasn’t a single Advanced Mage in the territory.
Advanced Mages themselves were not ordinary existences and were not easy to attract.
And even if one could attract them, what could they offer to make them comply?
They simply didn’t have the necessary conditions.
As for the few Advanced Warriors they did have, they might not be a match for a vast army.
“Among those who have co, how many are military personnel?” Xi Fei asked after so thought.
“According to our reconnaissance, they’re disguised as people from various professions, but we can confirm that at least half of them are,” Qiao Miya replied, quite confident in her assessnt.
“At least half, that ans at least fifty thousand people.
They’re really going all out,”
This was already equivalent to a military force.
If these were people who ca of their own accord, it would not be possible to organize so many.
Logistics aside, just the organization would be incredibly difficult.
So many different individuals coming together and converging in one place; did they really think everyone around them was a fool?
“Since that’s the case, let the military mobilize, but for now, don’t engage with them, just maintain order,”
Xi Fei, looking at the report, stood up and said, “As for these people, I will handle them.”
Qiao Miya opened her mouth, but in the end nodded without objection.
In the Lord’s absence, Xi Fei had the final say in the territory.
Of course, it was also because Xi Fei was indeed capable, or Zhao Guang wouldn’t have been at ease.
Having followed Zhao Guang for so long, Xi Fei had always been learning various aspects of managent.
Especially things from Zhao Guang’s holand, which was what Xi Fei was most interested in, and thus no local could compare with her in this regard.
After making her decision, Xi Fei imdiately ordered Coscola to lead the troops out.
However, partway through, Coscola instructed the others to scatter and begin maintaining order in different areas.
Next, it was ti to round up those causing internal trouble within the territory; it was ti to start keeping records.
Having left the central city and headed south for half a day, they finally encountered the troublemakers in an undeveloped clearing.
At this mont, everyone had been evacuated from that area.
There were so traces of leveling on the surrounding land, indicating that soone had already started developing this place.
Due to Zhao Guang’s aggressive developnt strategy, many places were constantly being developed.
If not for the fact that the territory was simply too vast, such undeveloped wastelands would have been almost impossible to find.
“People ahead, please state your purpose.
You have invaded our Xuanwu Territory, and we have the right to strike back,”
Xi Fei’s voice resonated through the void, making it clear for all the people before her to hear.
By taking the initiative and informing them of their invasion, indeed, many of them began to grow restive.
Xi Fei could tell through this unrest who were the true commoners, those who were coerced and deceived into coming, and those with a firm gaze had a purpose.
“It’s not just half; at least two-thirds of them are military forces.
No wonder they could gather so many people,”
“You are the Enchantress who has seduced the Lord of Xuanwu Territory, aren’t you?
We’ve co to get rid of you.
Without the deceit of you Demons, our Human Lords can truly earn the trust of their comrades,”
“Yes, that’s right, it must be the fault of this Enchantress.
Otherwise, how could there be so many Beastn in Human Territory?”
Others joined in the clamor, and the opposing forces seed even more disorderly.
Xi Fei’s gaze narrowed; sure enough, soone was using this issue to stir up trouble.
But if the master didn’t despise them, who were they to find fault?
Besides, her own heritage had always been the deepest pain in Xi Fei’s heart.
Because of her bloodline, she had suffered imnsely from childhood.
Even though the master did not despise her, Xi Fei still harbored so rejection towards her heritage internally.
Though she was no longer of Enchantress lineage, others still held the sa prejudice against her.
A sowhat angry Xi Fei released her aura.
The forces opposite imdiately felt a trendous pressure; anyone who could exert such pressure over a large number of people from afar had to be a superior professional.
“A Great Mage?
I didn’t expect you to hide such a card,”
In the crowd, a man in a red robe stepped forward, his face growing serious.
He had not anticipated the mission to be this troubleso, and he would have to ask Marquis Coruas for more money afterwards.
But it was too late for regrets; they likely wouldn’t be allowed to leave without a fight at this point.
Fortunately for him, there was another person on his side; two against one should be manageable.
As Moxy pondered, he glanced back at a man in Armor, the Great Knight Krich.
Krich had a working relationship with Coruas, whose own family had once had a Great Knight among their older generation.
Unfortunately, in this region, only a few Advanced Warriors existed at most.
“Unexpectedly, we seem to have caught two big fish,” Xi Fei’s eyes beca more solemn, confident in facing one herself, but now up against two, it wouldn’t be as easy.
But she too had her own ans; it just remained to be seen how strong these two were, Xi Fei silently mused.
