"Are the Yan people trying to cut us down to size?"
Displaying such a grand spectacle without actually engaging in battle is naturally for intimidation.
This kind of tactic is quite common in the desert. Sometimes, when two tribes have conflicts, the stronger tribe often chooses to send their own warriors to form an army and parade around the opposing tribe. If the power gap is too wide, the opposing tribe will likely choose to back down.
Ke Yan Mu shook his head, quickly and quietly responding to his son:
"No, do you think this Southern Marquis of the Yan people is so idle with nothing better to do, just to come here and show off? You should know that he is on equal standing with that Lord North.
He's especially backing someone, backing that Lord at Snow Sea Pass. It's said that lord is his confidant, and it seems that's true.
As a master, he is actually willing to come out specifically to support his subordinate and stand up for them.
