Old Man Mu unwillingly exerted his internal energy and supple Wenshi+ with another shout “All of you, shut up and listen to the counselor”
His voice was not only sonorous but also a little weird The effect of the Seven Magical Tones was usually diminished the h to ring in the thousands of soldiers’ ears and force them to shut their mouth to cover their ears
After everyone quieted down, Fang Wenshi+ pointed to the risingsun and said, “It’s almost dawn The election result is about to be announced Everyone should wait for the new commandant’s order”
