As Gu Lan's voice faded, Xue Lengyan bowed and then retreated. Since Gu Lan had spoken, she would act according to his wishes. What she had said also made sense. If they allowed the Wizard Clan to continue draining their resources, it would spell disaster. Sooner or later, they would be worn down by the Wizard Clan's relentless pressure. The Wizard Clan had no shortage of powerful experts, and what they had seen so far was merely the tip of the iceberg.
After Xue Lengyan left, Gu Lan also turned and departed. What Xue Lengyan had proposed was indeed a viable solution. However, Gu Lan knew he needed to make additional preparations. He couldn't place all his hopes on the Lava Clan.
As soon as Gu Lan returned to the palace, he summoned Ding True Man, Zhongren, and Shadow Slave. The three approached without hesitation and bowed respectfully to Gu Lan.
"Greetings, my Lord."
"Greetings, Master."
