(Lian Li POV)
I stood by Guiying's side as Elaria rode her horse towards us, reining her horse in a few feet away before dismounting it.
"Elaria, splendid timing." I greeted her. "I had feared we would need to lose this battle to the Dong dogs."
"There were a few complications on the way, roads were a bit rough for the trucks and we had a few breakdowns. But I came here as soon as I could!" She reported merrily.
Guiying was about to bow her head but quickly stopped herself at the last moment, remembering her position, "On behalf of the Royal Family, I thank you, Miss Lindulf. We would have been in extremely dire straits if you had not chosen to assist us with your… Ahem… Calvary."
I followed Guiying's gaze, watching the machines that were still mopping up the stragglers of the Dong army even as they fled.
You must be delusional to even suggest my disciple could have flattened the impassable Death Mountains, just look at how cute she is taking a nap under the cherry blossom tree.
