Inside the grand hall of Grant City, every face was lit with joy. The envoy from Jiang Territory had just departed, making it clear that Jiang Territory would send 200,000 troops to reinforce Grant City in the war.
But the only condition was that Yuna Ji must travel to Jiang Capital and marry Jason Jiang, the son of King Jiang. Command of the forces would be shared between General Jiang Tianci from Jiang Territory and the generals of Grant City.
Joseph Qiao’s smile faded. Jiang Territory’s decision to send troops at this critical moment was their greatest advantage; it would narrow the gap with the forces of Wynn Domain and Sage Domain to 300,000. The terrain of the western forests was highly favorable for the defenders.
Many clan leaders looked to Yuna Ji, waiting for her reply. After all, this marriage alliance had been promised to Jiang Territory by King Grant himself when he was still alive.
“Yuna, just marry into their family with peace of mind. Leave everything here to us…”
“What do you mean by that?”
In an instant, Aaron Lin roared and stood up. All the generals present gave cold stares to the clan leader who spoke. Even a fool could see that if Yuna Ji left, Jiang Territory would have a legitimate claim to rule Grant City. Once Wynn Domain and Sage Domain were driven out, Grant City would belong to Jiang Territory. And now, after so much hardship, they finally had a leader who could hold everything together—if Yuna Ji left, the unity they’d fought for would collapse.
Joseph Qiao didn’t want to see that happen either. Every general was united in their opposition to Yuna Ji leaving for the marriage.
But the crucial thing was, Yuna Ji hadn’t spoken yet. She just watched the discussion below with cold, detached eyes.
“Yuna, what do you think?”
