(You know what happened with the previous chapter number.)
"That's right, but after what happened last time, I didn't dare casually set up another portal." Xiao Ran smiled.

Even those without permission to enter can learn that such a Faction Territory exists. If you intend to treat one Legion Territory as your main base, or if it holds too many secrets, then it would be unsuitable to allow honorary members inside or let others know about it. Building two separate portals can avoid that risk—one in the open and one in the shadows."
"But you can rest assured that since both Faction Territories belong to the same Legion, a passage connecting them can be established between the two territories.
