「Great Yu Calendar, year 1059, the tenth day of the ninth month.」
Though it was still morning, the sun already hung high in the eastern sky. A dry autumn wind carried a hint of scorching heat.
Outside Linji City's South City Gate, a large crowd of people and horses had gathered, creating a bustling scene.
The Four Great Clans of the Inner City were all scheduled to depart today for their demon-slaying expeditions.
Xin'an, Xinyi, and Moshan Counties all lay south of Linji City. Thus, the Jiang, Wang, and Shen families were all gathered outside the South City Gate to organize their demon-slaying teams.
With the power of these three families and so many days of preparation, their manpower should have already been arranged. There was little need for further organization; they could have simply gathered in the Inner City and set off.
