Chapter 1988 Plan B

Dong Linghou had already received the news of his men engaging a battle at the Chen's, but there was no update following that. Any attempt to contact his people was fruitless.

Not long after, he received another news that the Dark Legion had marched out of the city and heading his way.

"This is bad! They must've been wiped out, otherwise these mercenaries wouldn't dare to attack us."

Dong Linghou immediately realized he wouldn't be able to hold down the fort.

He was still unaware of the situation at the Chen's, but even just a few late-sixth-realm feral beasts from the Dark Legion were too much for his men.

Without hesitation, he immediately requested the Royal Management for aid. In the meantime, he also prepared a small warship and a troop of a thousand soldiers for early evacuation.

Once he confirmed the Dark Legion was indeed heading his way, he boarded the warship without delay and fled.
