Bai Fan felt a sense of home within the Body Sect.
Perhaps that was the difference between a sect and an academy, or perhaps the Body Sect itself was simply a great sect.
Tang Wutong, who had come with Bai Fan, was also well cared for by the others.
That day, Du Busi came to find Bai Fan together with Vina.
The three sat together and discussed matters.
"Bai Fan, what do you think of the Sun Moon Empire?"
Princess Vina was the first to ask, and Du Busi immediately echoed her question.
"According to the scouts' reports, quite a few unfamiliar Soul Masters have appeared around our empire."
"If nothing unexpected happens, the Sun Moon Empire should soon reveal its wolfish ambitions."
Bai Fan looked at the old man and young woman before him, considering the future direction of events.
He voiced his thoughts to them.
"You are mostly right, but there is one point you got wrong."
"What?" Vina and Du Busi both looked at Bai Fan.
"The Sun Moon Empire is not about to reveal its wolfish ambitions. It has already done so."
"If nothing unexpected happens, the Sun Moon Empire has already finalized its battle plans internally."
"The current emperor of the Sun Moon Empire, Xu Natural, is an extremely scheming man. We must be prepared for battle at all times."
After Bai Fan said this, the expressions of the two opposite him turned grave.
The atmosphere throughout the room became exceedingly heavy.
"Bai Fan, do we have any way to resist?"
"Yes!"
"What way?"
Light simultaneously lit up in Princess Vina's and Du Busi's eyes.
"The three great empires must unite and twist themselves into a single rope. Only then can we win a sliver of hope."
The two across from him looked somewhat helpless.
