Chapter 181: 180

Having convinced Zhu Bangbai to leave with a physical argument, Lu Bei and Zhu Qilan found their path clear of all obstacles.

This came as a surprise to him. After getting the invitation, Zhu Qilan didn't rush to act but waited for three to five days before setting out.

After dragging it out for so long, scarcely anyone came to the secret region to seek opportunities...
