Huicunze said, "Send people to investigate the situation in Daimyo City and along the route!"
"Why hasn't there been any news at all? This is far too abnormal! How could the Cloud Ninja be this slow?"
Yasuo replied, "Yes!" Then he vanished with a whoosh!
Was I overthinking it? At a normal pace, perhaps they really had only just arrived!
Even if my scouts had discovered their traces, they shouldn't have been able to send word back this quickly!
But what exactly is this feeling of unease?
I even sent people to bring Little Princess Demu Xiaohua back.
That means I now completely command sixty thousand troops, along with countless elites under my banner. Dekang VI cannot possibly be my match!!
So why would I feel uneasy in such a situation? Am I worrying too much?!
Huicunze thought to himself, his brows tightly furrowed.
Though he reeked of alcohol at the moment, it did not affect his ability to think in the slightest.
"Maybe I'm so uneasy because I haven't received firsthand intelligence yet!"
All this time, he had been accustomed to formulating specific battle plans based on intelligence under his control.
Only this time, the intelligence had not arrived as expected, leaving him somewhat panicked and afraid that something beyond his expectations might happen.
"Lord Huicunze, the scouts' report has arrived!"
Just then, Yasuo's voice rang out again. Huicunze was immediately delighted and had Yasuo bring the report inside.
Yasuo was a man who looked remarkably like a woman. He handed the report in his hand to Huicunze!
Huicunze took the report and saw the words written on it: "The Cloud Ninja have crossed the border! Eighteen in number!"
"Good!"
Seeing this report, Huicunze immediately slapped his thigh and rose to his feet. "Notify the Oniwaban and everyone else.
