Unbeknownst to her, while she had been preoccupied with selling a royal-grade weapon the previous evening, her actions had sent shock waves through numerous lords within the realm.
The sale of such a formidable weapon signified that the lord possessed the capability to vanquish royal tier adversaries.
Yet, most lords remained skeptical, as it seemed implausible that any lord could progress so rapidly in such a brief period.
Only the five members of the element alliance held unwavering belief.
Having witnessed the truth through long gia own eyes, Bayou's prowess exceeded the lord's wildest imaginations.
Bayou anticipated a more tranquil couple of days ahead.
The troubles from the snowy mountain had dissipated and the traitors were not easily tracked down.
She proceeded to the barracks, ready to summon her troops.
Meanwhile, in Sun Shia Xiao<unk>s castle, she wielded her staff to slay a magical beast.
Instantly, filling her experience points to the brim.
Sun Shia Sha successfully ascended to the rank of commander.
She mounted her small yellow cloud and soared into the sky, awaiting the completion of her breakthrough.
Each breakthrough required a duration to manifest, a process Sun Sha Sha found perplexing.
At times, she even experienced a sensation of weakness in her limbs.
This morning, Sun Sha Sha rose early, marking her first venture into battle under the dual attribute enhancement of the early dawn.
Having remained at ordinary level 9 for an extended period, she had distinctly sensed her impending breakthrough the previous day.
Eagerly, she ventured forth to combat magical beasts.
And indeed, her efforts bore fruit as she attained a new level after dispatching just one foe.
To her surprise, Sun Shia Sha advanced to commander before Xiaoin Shua, and a sense of pride welled within her.
She had resolved to confront the old witch once more.
Yet, as she contemplated this, a flicker of hesitation crossed her mind.
She yearned to visit her family.
Now that she had achieved the rank of commander, she possessed a measure of self-defense capability.
However, she was uncertain how to broach the subject with Bayou.
Son Shia Shao confided in her cousin Sun Yuba regarding her newfound aspirations.
Once feeling hopeless, she now glimpsed a ray of optimism.
The plan involved persuading Bayou to form an alliance with them, enabling her to traverse the portal to their side and subsequently dissolve the alliance.
Son Shia Sha understood that Bayou had no existing alliances and her cousin merely needed one individual to briefly exit the alliance, thereby freeing up a position.
In the absence of resource or personnel exchanges, alliances could be unilaterally dissolved.
However, once an intersection occurred, both parties needed to consent to the dissolution.
For instance, if Bayou traversed the portal to another lord's castle, that lord could not unilaterally dissolve the alliance and leave Bayou stranded to launch an attack against her.
If the alliance was established solely on a simple agreement without any intersection, it could indeed be unilaterally dissolved.
These principles were born from Sun Yuba's firsthand experiments.
Thus, even if Sun Xiao<unk>s castle could not relocate, she could still reach her cousin s domain.
Armed with this newfound knowledge, Sun Sha Sha felt an intensified desire to reunite with her family.
The swamp creatures have been largely deciphered by Sun Sha Sha.
And even in her absence, her magical beasts were unlikely to encounter significant trouble.
After Sun Sha Sha discreetly finished her business behind a tree, she issued a command to her beasts before mounting her little yellow cloud and soaring towards Bayou's castle.
Regardless of Bayou<unk>s consent, Son Shia Shao felt compelled to discuss this matter with her.
At that moment within the castle, Bayou had just finished summoning her troops and was instructing the undead to search for the traitor while simultaneously seeking traces of the Goblin Kingdom.
Given the previous ambush of the goblin shaman and the subsequent lack of pursuit against her, Bayou deduced that the goblin kingdom was the weakest among the four factions.
Likely venturing to the snow mountain merely in hopes of serendipity, Bayou speculated that the strength of the goblin kingdom was comparable to that of the dwarven kingdom, making it a suitable target for her ambitions in marshall state.
Thus, she aimed to ascertain their whereabouts while on a quest to uncover the traitor.
Huh? Son Sha Sha had arrived.
Bayou recalled Sun Shia Sha as words about achieving the rank of commander upon her next visit.
And upon checking her status, she found that indeed Sun Sha Sha had attained that rank.
While still in the sky, Sun Sha Sha spotted Bayou in the castle courtyard and waved enthusiastically.
Soon she descended gracefully on her little yellow cloud, landing before Bayou.
Big sister Bai, I've reached commander level.
Son Sha Shao exclaimed with joy upon their meeting.
What remarkable talent you possess? How is it that you were so weak before? Bayou responded generously praising Sunshck acknowledging that achieving such a level at her tender age was commendable.
After exchanging pleasantries, Sunsha Sha appeared to be burdened with thoughts and Bayou discerning her demeanor realized that her visit was not merely for idol chatter.
Under Bayou's gentle probing, Sun Shia Sha soon revealed her quest to find her relatives.
After absorbing this news, Bayou fell into a brief silence.
It was indeed a positive development for Son Shia Sha to locate her kin.
Are you certain that your cousin can be trusted? Is he a traitor? Is there any danger on that side? Bayou<unk>s first concern was for son Xiao's safety, which deeply touched her heart.
Rest assured, big sister Bi, I have a close relationship with my cousin, son Yuba, since childhood.
He is not a traitor and he is with my father in some desert or goi where there is little danger.
They managed to survive the beast tide precisely because they were there.
Son Shia Sha explained empathizing with my US concern.
After all, being in a foreign realm, alone and unsupported at such a young age, facing the collapse of her worldview and the brutal violence of another world, it was remarkable that she had not succumbed to despair.
Very well.
I respect your decision.
However, before you embark on your journey, I shall assist you in upgrading the castle to a town where we can construct an annex castle.
It would be quite perilous for you to leave without anyone to oversee matters there.
In Bayou's warehouse, there remained 15,000 iron ingots, insufficient for her to upgrade her town, yet ample for Sun Shia Sha to enhance her town and construct an auxiliary castle.
Naturally, she possessed complete operational authority over her subjects.
And Bayou promptly upgraded Sun Xiao Xiao<unk>s castle to a town, establishing an auxiliary castle within her own domain, becoming neighbors with Xiao and Shua.
Sister Bi, I don't know how to express my gratitude.
You have been exceedingly kind to me.
Son Xiao Xiao<unk>s nose tinged with emotion.
for Bayou not only permitted her to seek her relatives, but also expressed concern for the unprotected castle, worried it might be attacked, and even built her an auxiliary castle.
Enough of those sentimental words.
Go contact your cousin.
I will have Xiao Insua temporarily oversee your barracks.
By said, dismantling Sun Xiao Xiao<unk>s special structure, the time chamber, to construct it within her own town, while directly upgrading her auxiliary barracks to level 9, even surpassing the main castle.
Bayou's thinking was straightforward.
These magical beasts held little significance for her.
But Sun Xiao Xiao's beast barracks, when isolated, were formidable, perfectly complimenting Xiao Liu's dwarves in forming a unique army.
Focusing on Bayou's castle would facilitate Xiao Liu movements.
Her aim was to have the dwarves serve as logistics, not to eradicate them.
Thus, it was inevitable that Xiao Liianu's dwarves would manage the other dwarven clans.
Meanwhile, son Xiao Shao sent a message to her cousin while Bayou summoned her magical beast to her side before dispatching all to Xiao Lianua's castle.
Soon, Bayu received a friend request from a lord named Big Wave Girl.
Sun Yuba recognized that Sun Sha Shao had allied herself with a top tier figure, a female who treated Sun Sha Sha well.
Hence, he addressed Bayou with utmost respect.
His words were filled with gratitude for Bayou<unk>s care of Son Sha Sha.
And from his tone, it seemed he did not intend to have Sun Sha Sha return.
However, that was not Sun Sha Sha<unk>s intention, and Bayu was indifferent.
Furthermore, even if Sun Sha Sha departed with the dwarves collaborating with a magical beast to vanquish foes, she would still gain experience points and continue to grow stronger.
Bayou had not abandoned Sun Xiao Xiao<unk>s magical beasts.
The two quickly formed an alliance and together Bayou and Sun Shia Shao approached the portal.
Changing the destination from Xiao Yian Shua to Sun Yubu Bao gazing at the portal radiating an orange red glow.
Sun Shia Shao paused then turned to embrace Bayou.
Sister Bi, thank you.
Bayou gently patted Sun Shia Xiao<unk>s back.
If you encounter any difficulties over there, be sure to let me know.
I am now at the royal level and quite powerful.
Son Shia Sha nodded, releasing by you as she walked toward the portal.
Sister Bi, I am leaving.
