Commander Ashley led the march. She and her subordinates left Jinhua City at sunrise. She brought everyone, leaving no one to defend the city. Prince Kaiden's life was more important than the city, after all.

Knowing this was a trap, she did not rush her knights to preserve their stamina. Of course, their speed of walking was not slow either.

”Commander Ashley, we found the enemy.” Captain Fer reported. He was sent to scout the area forward.

”How many?” Commander Ashley inquired. If Juan said the truth, the enemy was supposed to be one Demon and two Undead.

”Four? Three humans and one beast.” Captain Fer pointed toward the sky. From where they were now, they could see two dots in the sky. One dot smaller to another.

”Are you sure they are the enemy? I thought our enemy is the Demon and the Undead? Call Juan over!” She ordered to bring the survivor knight.

Juan immediately rushed forward and heard the report. Captain Fer's report should not be wrong. Captain Fer was far more excelled in scouting than him.

”No, I did not see them…” the distance was too far hence Juan could not see the human's features, ”I only saw a demon swordsman, and undead with two reavers, and an undead knight with a lance.”

Juan's description was too descriptive to be false. Commander Ashley was inclined to believe Juan's story. Of course, it did not mean Captain Fer was wrong either. It only meant that the demon and the undead connected to the people in the air.

”Have you found our people's remains?” Commander Ashley decided to ask for more information while she had a conjecture in her mind.

”I did find something, but rather than remain, it's our people's armor,” Captain Fer presented a part of wrecked armor, ”I found the wrecked armor, but I did not find their bodies. Juan said the truth, from the trace of the battle, our people got slaughtered one-sidedly.”

”Then the demon and the undead must be related to the Tang Empire,” Commander Ashley muttered, ”And those three are from the empire. They expected us to come after what happened yesterday. Then where's the trap? Did you find any trap installed?”

”No, I am confident with my ability. There's no trap and there's no ambush as well. In fact, within a three thousand meters area, there are no living beings but us and them.” Captain Fer continued.

”If they are the native of this world. The Tang Empire is making a contract with the demon and the undead to help them. If that's what happened, we will trade the Prince for our four cities,” Commander Ashley told her Captain Knights what was in her mind.

”If they are not the native. We should get ready for battle. We have to fight them with our leaves and don't even dare one of you to reveal the Dimensional Gate's location!” A cold aura burst out from Commander Ashley, intimidating the other knights, forcing them to step backward.

”Don't worry about that, Commander Ashley. Our family lives behind the gate as well. We are not going to do something as stupid as that,” Captain Morris said to calm their Commander.

”But I am afraid of our Prince Kaiden will…” Captain Lucas did not finish their words, but everyone knew what he tried to imply.
