Assembly, Beast Tide Alliance!

[In the same month, you received news relayed from Wangyu Tower. The situation in Lin Commandery City was not optimistic either. It was said that on the day the beast tide erupted, Lin Commandery City was suddenly attacked by five Mysterious Tier Middle Grade fierce beasts comparable to the Golden Core Middle Stage. The five major factions of Lin Commandery immediately put up a resistance, but the outcome was tragic. Rumor had it that the Swordless Sect Master was heavily injured, and the Azure Dragon Gang Leader and the Li Family Patriarch fared no better, all sustaining severe wounds.]

[All five major factions suffered heavy casualties!]

[Upon receiving this news, you furrowed your brows. You knew the current situation was already critical. If the five major factions representing the ultimate strength of Lin Commanderies could not hold their ground, the fate of your Mu Family would not be much better either.]

[In the seventh year, December, you ordered all family businesses to withdraw. Having learned that the five major factions of Lin Commandery were too busy to look after themselves, you realized that factions at the county government level would only face an even more tragic fate. Taking advantage of the time the Mu Family still had to spare, you rushed to have the family businesses recalled.]

[You and the various elders of the family busied yourselves back and forth for a full month before finally managing to retrieve all the family's assets.]

[At the end of the same month, news of the massive beast tide erupting in Lin Commandery even reached the ears of the Sixth Prince. Unfortunately, busy contending for the imperial throne, the Sixth Prince was still fighting fiercely in the imperial capital, merely instructing the Lin Commandery Prefecture to say that reinforcements would be dispatched immediately.]
