Chapter 504: The Early Start of the Great Construction

With the spread of rumors by Zhao Guang's end, the domain of Marquis Coruas finally began to shake.

More and more people silently fled. When Marquis Coruas issued an order prohibiting them from leaving, the scale of this exodus became even larger. There was no helping it, as Coruas was in no mood to attend to this matter at the moment.
