Chapter 94: Divine Iron
Southwest of the Jing Kingdom.
This place originally belonged to the barbarian tribes. After the Battle of the Thread of Sky, the barbarians were completely swept away.
From overlords of the mountain forests, they were reduced to slaves.
General Han Shizhong, although he had not crowned himself king, was called the King of the Southwest by everyone.
On a hilltop, a man with graying temples wearing armor looked down from above at the barbarian slaves being whipped.
Han Shizhong wanted to build a Mingxin Palace in the mountain forest, with a scale comparable to the Jing Kingdom's imperial palace.
A large number of barbarian slaves worked day and night.
They didn't have enough to eat or wear, and would be beaten if they paused even slightly.
Many soldiers took pleasure in tormenting the barbarians.
