Capítulo 625: Chapter 288: The Suffering of Longevity

The messenger from Xichuan came in a hurry and left just as quickly.

After reaching an agreement on the issue of allegiance, Hui An and Hui Ming, the two brothers, soon took their leave.

Their task was still heavy.

Negotiating terms with Chu State was only the first step. The next was to prove their worth and fulfill the requirements of the White Phoenix Temple set by the King of Chu.

Such as defending Nanchong Prefecture from the attack of the Nanzhao Army and holding on until at least April, which was the most crucial part.

Only by holding on and completing the mission could they prove the usefulness of the White Phoenix Temple, be accepted by Chu State, and have a future.

But if they couldn't hold on...

If they couldn't hold on to Nanchong Prefecture, then under the heavy encirclement of the Nanzhao Army, the White Phoenix Temple would naturally have no luck either.

Sharing the same fate of destruction with the people of Nanchong Prefecture would be their ultimate destiny.
