Chapter 778: Launch
The Ancient Mansion controlled eight commanderies, and Jing Yan planned to attack all eight simultaneously.
The main target was naturally Flowing Light City, the Ancient Mansion’s stronghold. The reason for simultaneously attacking the other seven commanderies was primarily to contain the power of the Ancient Mansion.
Any of these seven commanderies was extremely important to the Ancient Mansion. If the Ancient Mansion did nothing to defend them, the fall of each commandery would cause significant losses to the family. Therefore, the Ancient Mansion had to divide its forces to protect each commandery.
On the other hand, if Jing Yan did not attack the other commanderies besides Flowing Light City, the Ancient Mansion could withdraw forces from these commanderies to defend Flowing Light City.
After comprehensive consideration, Jing Yan and others believed that attacking all eight commanderies simultaneously was most advantageous.
The focus was on Flowing Light City, with the other commanderies mainly serving to distract, without a direct heavy attack. Once Flowing Light City was breached, the other seven commanderies would not be far from destruction.
"Alliance Hierarch, you must also be careful. Flowing Light City is the Ancient Mansion’s stronghold, and the defense there will definitely be extremely terrifying," said Zheng Sanxiao with a serious expression.
"Yes! According to the information we have, the other Six Great Families are also secretly aiding the Ancient Mansion. The defensive forces in Flowing Light City might exceed our predictions!"
"The Advanced Arrays in Flowing Light City are also bound to be numerous. In thousands of years, no one has ever breached Flowing Light City!"
The captains all spoke, expressing their concerns.
"Indeed, I will be careful. Keep me updated on the progress of the attack through the Communication Crystal Stone! Now, let’s not talk much and just move out!" Jing Yan was indeed not relaxed.
Jing Yan had investigated the news that the other Six Great Families were secretly helping the Ancient Mansion. Although he had anticipated that the Six Great Families would not just watch the Ancient Mansion fall, the confirmation of the news still felt heavy to Jing Yan.
